It will be recalled that Officer Carter, ordlnarl'.y on night duty, was substi tuting for Policeman Thomas M. Hall, and the warrant that he was reading at the time of the ki'Ji.tg was sworn out by the City Taxicab company, for al leged refusal of Oorman to pay for the hire of the automobile. According to witnesses. Oorman had Just ridden up in a machine In front oT his home when Carter accosted him to make the arrest.

SALE BASEBALL STOCK-THIRD LOCK AND DAMj INTEREST GROWS IN GETS UNDER WAY HERE ON RIVER gjlj-rtB "BASHIM1 Two Canvassers Report Good! RESULTi BELIEF HERE) Large Attendance Expected At Progress on First Day of Campaign Initial effort was made yesterday to dispose of stock- in the company that is soon to be organized to provide Wilmington with an athletic park and league baseball this summer, and al though there was no concerted move made to sell shares, W. A. French. Sr., chairman of the baseball steering com mittee, announced last night that probably 25 or 30 shares had been, sold to the fans and business men of the town. Because of the fact that there were only one or two persons canvassing the stock, Chairman French is. highly pleased with the first reports turned in. He declares that he firmly believes that there will be little trouble in rais ing the $10,000 which has 'been esti mated as the amount necessary to pro vide the city with an athletic field, pur chase all necessary equipment, get m the proposed Eastern Carolina league and guarantee the players salary for the season. Ther.e has been placed in several uowntown stores lists that fans -might sign, showing the baseball steering commitee just how many shares of the stock persons can be counted on to purchase. These lists will be reported at the mass meeting of fans to be held at the chamber of commerce Friday night that those behind the baseball movement will know if the fans and business men are rallying to the cause. Lists have been placed at Baxter's. Warren's, and' Shepard's cigar stores and also at the Orton hotel. Chairman French said last night that the steering commitee had decided to form a stock company to handle the basebaU proposition here this summer so that many of the bad features of past years misht be avoided: He said before there was usually two or thre persons who had to hold the bag and scurry around to secure funds to carry along the team when it had a little hard luck, but with the stock company method there will be regularly elected officers and managers of the company who will be held responsible for the success of the venture. Under the present plan of the steer ing committee there will be 250 shares of preferred stock disposed of at $50 per share. Local Army Engineer Has Faith That Needed Improvements Are Coming Soon , ROTARY PLEDGES FULL SUPPORT TO HOSPITAL AND Y. M. C. A. DRIVES Maj. J. R. D. Matheson, local district army engineer, is much interested m the recent announcement from Wash ington that the rivets and' harbors bill, formally presented in the house a few days ago, carried a provision for a preliminary survey tor improvements on the . Cape Fear river above Wil mington. The army engineer here has little doubt but that the survey is for the proposed third lock and dam on the river between Wilmington and - Fay etteville. Major Matheson said yesterday af ternoon that the only official informa tion that he has gotten from Washing ton regarding the 'rivers and harbors bill was that it was to carry an appro priation of $15,000,000 for waterway improvements and $265,000 for prelim inary surveys for proposed improve ments. The army officer says that he knows of no proposed improvement on the upper Cape Fear except the build ing of the third lock, which has been agitated by the business men of Wil mington and Fayetteville for some time. Should the rivers ne narbors bill carry provision for a preliminary sur vey for the third lock, as many per sons believe it does, it simply means that Major Matheson will send engin eers ud the river for a complete sur vey and investigation. Should their reports show that the construction of an additional lock would be advisable, Major Matheson wiJl then likely recom mend to the chief of engineers in Washington that the lock be buijt. If the. head of this department passes fa vorably upon the matter, the construc tion will then be authorized. There has already been two big Jocks and dams built by the government on the Cape Fear river above Wilmington. This work was done with an idea of getting an all-year-round depth of eight feet of water to Fayetteville. After they were put into operation, however, it was found that-the' depth had not been obtained at all times. Since then the people of Fayetteville and Wilmington have been favorable for a third lock, which will assure' to commerce the depth of water sought. MAT FANS EXPECT HARD STRUGGLE HERE TONIGHT Features Abound During Meet ing of Club Tuesday Ro tarian Galvin Leaves Hanson and Ellis to Work for $1,000 Pot NAVAL RESERVE FORCE PLANS ARE DISCUSSED Many Ex-Sailors Attend Initial Meet At Hut l.'nusual enthusiasm was shown !n the proposed formation of a United States naval reserve unit for the port of Wilmington by the large number of young men of the city interested in the project who attended the initial organization meeting held last night at the hut of the American legion.. Althougji the meeting was called chiefly to ascertain if there was suffi cient interest here to take official steps towards the organization of a unit, such a fine response was shown that another meeting was called for Tues day night of next week at which time committees will be appointed to take the matter up with the proper navy de partment authorities in Washington. Kvery person present last night had been a member of the naval reserve force and saw service in Uncle Sam's navy during the late war. There were officers, petty "officers and seamen, all anxious to perfect a N. R. V. organiza tion for Wilmington, as was shown by the round-table discussion. William M.- Shaw explained to the meeting that the navy department was anxious to have organized Into a unit, all members of the reserve force. He declared, however, that not only the reserve force men were eligible, as any uerson could enlist. Mr. Shaw also ex plained that the government wouM place a vessel at the disposal of the unit which could be used for cruises whenever the men desired to take one. Those present at the meeting last night were all members of the N. R. F. Their names and rank wre as follows: James O. Dickson, lieutenant medical corps; William M. Shaw, lieutenant of the line; Norvin C. SmJth, lieutenant of the line: Archie G. Warren, Jr., ensign of the line; H. R. Cavenaugh, coxswain: John S. Divine,: seaman; Julius T.

Jackson yesterday forwarded 'extradition papers to the governor of Pennsylvania ,. ftfrv W. p. Moore, the negro preacher who is want ed here, on the charge.of bigamy and who skipped $500 bond and was ar rested in Philadelphia a short time ago on a warrant sent to the authorities there by Sheriff Jackson. The extradition papers were signed by Governor Cameron Morrison Mon day. Either Sherjff Jackson or Deputy Sheriff C. B. Hollomon will go to Phil adelphia to bring the negro back to this city. fTowever, In order to forestall ' any delay that miht be occasioned by a protest on the part of the negro. Sheriff Jackson wired to Philadelphia for ad vice on this score, and a message fn reply reported that the" neiwo had en tered no protest. After Col. Walker Taylor, represent ing the board of directors "of the T. M. r A., and George i. Elliott, repre senting the James Walker Memorial hospital campaign committee, had out lined to the members of" the Rotary club, at the regular weekly meeting of this organization yesterday afternoon, the reasons for the drives that are to be shortly made for the two Institu tions, they were given assurance by President Carl Polvogt that the Ro tary club indorsed both projects and would sive- t each hearty support. Mr. Elliott, the flrst visitor intro duer1 to the club, declared that he brought a messafe about Wilmington, a message which he said should touch the heart of Wilmington. He said that twenty-five years ago the property and buildings of the James Walker Memo rial hospital were valued at approxi mately $30,000; 'that now they are es timated to be worth $.397,000, and that it had not cost the community one pen ny. Mr. Elliott told of the many me morial gifts to the hospital. Including the additional buildings and equip ment, and that Wilmington now has a plant which will bring the city to the front as a medical center. Inndrquatr Contribution At the present time the city and county together contribute annqally but $26,000 to the hospital, said Mr. El liott. This means, he declared, that there is but $1.75 per day available for each' charity patient when, as a matter of fact, it costs more than $4 to care for each one. The hospital has grown to a point where it cannot grow any more and there is a deficit now oly $30,000. Mr. Elliott pleaded with the club to give Its moral support to the $100,000 drive that is to be made for the Institution. Col. Walker Taylor said he brought a message about Wilmington a ntes sage on behalf of the Toting Men's Christian association. The speaker sa Id 'be wanted to give the club some Ideas that might be used In the cam paign that is to be waged Thursday of this week to raise $-9,000 for the T. M. C. A. Colonel Taylor said that every per son was willing to help a person who helped himself, and, he said, the T. M. C. A. is helping Itself. He as serted the local, association was pro ducing things In the way of manhood for the city. The speaker declared that it required $35,000 annually to op erate the T. M. C. A., and that the as sociation, through memberships and other means, took care of 75 per cent of the amount and all that the board of directors asked the public for was 25 per cent; or $9,000. , "We ask the city to Invest $9,000 in character," said the speaker. "Stocks often ?o below par, but if you can keep character morally, mentally and physically at par, you have, done some thing. We are asking the people of Wilmington to invest in manhood when we ask them to support the Y, M. C. A. ; ' Mualcal Pentuff Special features of the meeting' yes terday yiere delightful solos rendered by Mrs. Herbert Scott'Snead, ,of Mont clalr, . N. J., who was accompanied on the piano by- her sister, Miss 'Julia Post, and- a humorous talk by "Sun shine" Hawks, who is delivering a se ries of talks this week at Grace Meth odist church. Rotarian George P. Galvin, who has recently been assigned to manage a metal plant in Dallas, Tex., bade his fellow Rotarlans goodbye at 'yester day's meeting. - Rotarian Galvin de clared that -the . nine, years spent in Wilmington were the most pleasant that he has ever, spent. He said that the five years that he has been' a men. 'bor -of the local Rotary cltih had heen most profitable-Vt.0 him . and , had been the c.faune.of. him seeing ,thing differ ently.. He declared that although:, he would soon be In Dallas, he would al- Tonighfs match' on the Academy mat between Hanson and EIH will conclude their thousand dollar series and determine the ' middleweight championship of the south. The bout will start at 8:30 o'clock, will be -without preliminaries and will go to a two out of three fall finish regardless of time. The winner of the match will be officially declared the winner of the series. ' ' That the bout will be fast and fu rious Is certain, but It Is hoped that nothuig of a rough and illegitimate nature will crop out to spoil proceed ings and mar the match. However, with so much at stake it is hard to tell just what will or won't happen. The referee has been instructed . to see that nothing but legitimate, honest-to-goodness wrestling Is engaged in and will give both men equal treatment. They will be up there to wrestle and not to- vent their personal spleen on one another. That the man who loses will lose hard and will go down fighting, contest ing every inch of space is a foregone conclusion. It is not- believed that Ellis will concede a fall to Hanson through hammerlocklng with so much at stake unless the Swede wrings an arm ou tof his body, and It's .certain that Ellis with all his strength, will not be able to make Hanson give up. Body scissors and full body holds- are the things Hanson will be obliged to look out for chiefly during his pro cess of wearing the other man down where he can hope to handle him. , Ringside tickets are on sale at New man's cafe and may be had there until 7 o'clock tonight. METHODIST MEN'S CLUB I TO BANQUET THURSDAY Club of Fifth Avenue Church to Meet , The second banquet of the Method ist Men's club of the Fifth Avenue Methodist church will be held Thurs day evening at 8 o'clock in the hall above 205 Market street, it was an nounced yesterday by officers of the organization. It is - expected that ap proximately 150 Methodist men will be present. The club was organized in Wilming ton in January at. which time a ban quet'was staged at the Masonic hall, about 90 men being present. Since, the organization meeting, many applica tions for membership have been re ceived and It is expected that the club will soon reach a membership total of 200. ' The club is a local branch of -the or ganization known as the Men's Method ist club and It is represented in prac tically every state. The club was founded flve.years ago by Rev. George Stanley Frazer, present pastor of . the Fifth Avenue Methodist church. The local club is one of the largest in the south and has made a . remarkable record of progress n the few weeks of. its life. , President W. R. Dosher has 'an nounced a very attractive program which consists of 'music and . brief talk.' An elaborate banquet will' be served. It Is stated that the future banduets of the club will be held-in the flub house which wjTl be remodel ed from the old parsonage of the church. V ; Mass Meeting Set for Friday Evening HEAD OF COAST LINE' i . . i ASSERTS CO-OPERATION WILL SOLVE I PROBLEMS' Prospects for organized baseball in Wilmington and other cities of eastern North Carolina were appreciably brightened yesterday when fans dis cussed jthe. story of the mass meeting of those interested in the promotion of an Eastern Carolina league Friday eve ning, at the chamber of commerce rooms. In Tuesday's Morning Star the call for the mass meeting appeared, to gether with the outline of a plan, used Quandary of Railroads Easier if Workers and Officials Co ; Operate, Says Mr. Kenly That the situation confronting the railways of the country, threatened cuts in basic" wages, may' be relieved j by co-operation between the managers and employes of the railroads, is. the -belief expressed in a circular to all successfully elsewhere, to raise needed V , J, s , u I finances ( T h uiu inr umi-e ncie ui rira- ' lnpnr I t r I on I v hcnaf-lft v arc tno It appeared probable yesterday that the Piedmont plan might be adopted here, either as a whole, or in its main aspects. It for the selling of stock in tfce club at $10 per share, and no claims of any great profits to accrue are' made by those 'placing the shares. In fact, those buying the stock gener ally regard the hand out as a donation, although; if an unusually successful season is experienced, a dividend is not out of the question. Wilmington must provide grounds, secure a manager and players in other words start from the ground and build up a real ball club. There is sufficient population here to support a club, and with the coming of summer and thou sands of visitors, additional patronage is available. True, many of the sum mer visitors come for surf bathing, fishing and boating, but if they are from cities boasting membership in a league of professional baseball clubs, they generally would want to compare the Wilmington Tars with their home town hopes. That would take them to the ball orchard and through the turn stiles which would benefit the finances of the Wilmington club no little. Several - public spirited citizens are willing, to take the lead in organizing the local club and promoting the East ern Carolina league. Kinston. Golds boro and some other cities are talking and planning it is entirely in order for. Wilmington to set the pace in the line of tangible endeavor. This will surely result at the chamber of com merce rally Friday evening at 8:15 o'clock, if a sufficient number of fanB turn out. It should be an en masse gathering, according to many bugs, and as there is not any great number of conflicting gatherings on for that eve ning, the. attendance should be even larger than at the previous mass meeting. PLANS PROGRESS FOR DRIVE FOR FUNDS TO AID LOCAL HOSPITAL employes requested to read and study; extracts from a statement made by ! Vice-President W. W. Atterbury. of; the Pennsylvania, and from a telegram I sent the railway labor board by Thomas DeWitt Cuyler, chairman of the Association of Railway Executives. ' "The serious condition confronting' the railroads today is vividly illustra-t ted by the fact that, based on the last: four months, the payrolls of all the i roads in the country for the year 1920' amounted, approximately, to $3.700.-: 000.000, as against $1,700,000,000 in 1917 an Increase of $2,000,000,000. or 117.65 per cent. On the same basis the labor payrolls of the Atlantic" Coast Line amounted to $40,716,442.62 ; in 1920. as against $16,458,908.43 in, 1917. an increase of $24,257,534.19, or $147.38," the statement asserts. The telegram of Mr. Cuyler supple menting that of Gen. W. W. Atterbury, vice-president of the Pennsylvania railroad and chairman of the labor committee of the. Association of Rail way executives, already made public and presenting the same general con tentions, states that the interests of all are endangered under the hard and fast rules that operate railways in different sections of the country, and asks for drastic and immediate action to prevent financial loss to railways and public. It will be recalled .that General At terbury's statement before the rail road labor board on January 31 was to the effect that unless operating rules were abrogated at once many of the railroads of the United States might be forced into insolvency. ' Mr. Cuyler asserted in his telegram that unless the rules and working con ditions of the transportation act had been continued by mutual consent, they would have , terminated on Sep tember 1 last, in accordance with that act and would not now be in effect, had not the railroad board in Its wage (decision of . Julv 20. 1920. asked the railroad companies to continue them ' temporarily, pending a hearing. "The fact that this hearing tends to be pro tected at a time when the necessity for economy growB with every hour, produced a situation requiring. In our Judgment, drastic and immediate ac : tion." Mr. Cuyler asserted. I "The suggestion that we should Important Announcements Are'th Made At Drive Headquarters. Meetings Changed ways think of his friends in this city, especially the members of the Rotary club. . , i . ; - upon the invitation ' t Rotarian 1 ivuuen js. wiDDin, rector of St. John s Episcopal church, the members of the Rotary club will attend in .a. body.

The executive committee met at noon and heard some flattering re ports from those who have been at tending to the details and great en thusiasm prevailed over the success of the. project. It was announced that on account cf the exercises at th hut of the Ameri can legion tomorrow night, marked by i me presentation or the charter to the women's auxiliary of the legion, the meeting of the executive committee and captains of the teams had been postponed - until Friday night. The scene of the initial meeting of the campaign workers was also announced as changed. The meeting will be held in the Variety Lunch room. Second and Market streets. There, too, on account of the spaciousness of the hall will oe held the dally lunches for the campaign workers, this lunch being a feature "f each day of the drive, so that the work ers may get together, make their re ports and confer with each other as to the progress of the drive, and. If nec essary, what should be done to put on more steam. The supper and meeting Friday will commence promptly at 6.30 o'clock and each captain is 'expect ed to be present. Adding "pep" to the pending cam paign, a larse banner has been stretch ed across Front, street near the Murchi son National bank building. The ban ner bears the news of the drive and an inspiring slogan for the workers, de claring hat the James Walker Memo rial hospital "Helps and Needs Help." The hearty Indorsement given the labor organizations offers no so lution of the difficulty. Each railway company is prepared to negotiate with Its employes proper rules and working conditions adapted to different condi tions in various parts of this country. It is utterly impossible for the United States railway labor board to make uniform rules and workingconditions for all the railroads of the country without abuses like the present, when by a mere change in title four of the employes of the Pere Marquette rail way had to be paid over $9,300 in back pay. without any change in character of volume of work." The claim is made that abrogation of the transportation act in the only action which with government sanc tion can free the hands of the railway executives and enable them by orderly procedure with their own men to de velop appropriate rules and working conditions. Rules, to be effective, it is declared, are those negotiated between each management and its own men, and have behind them a common under standing. The opportunity to secure this is requested by the railroads In the interest of that efficient and eco 'nomical operation required by the transportation act." "Last, but not least," says the ex tract from Mr. Cuyler's telegram, "it is in the interest of the men who work upon these railroads. As General At- fterbury stated, we recognize that as wages of railway employers were the last to go up. they should be the last to come down, and If by restoring the conditions necessary to efficient and economical operation, the railroads can "postpone for a reasonable period the reduction of basic wages, which will ultimately be required, they will only be too glad to do so in the interest of the great body of their employes." t WATKIXS FFVERAI.
