Canal Tolls
Bill Passed
By Senate
Opposition Fears Measure to
F.xenipt U. S. Coastwise
Shipping From Duty Will
Complicate Arras Parley.
Clash Foreseen in House
By ARTHUR SEARS HENNING.
Chicago Trlbant-Omaha Hea laa4 Wlr.
Washington, Oct. 10. Despite the
niokt solemn warnings that it was
voting to violate the Hay-Paunce-fote
treaty, the senate today pasted
the Borah bill exempting American
coastwise (hipping from payment of
Panama canal tolls. The vote was
7 yes and 37 nays.
The house, to which the measure
now. goes, will he the scene of the
real battle over this proposed dis
crimination, contrary to the treaty
agreement, to give the ships of all
nations the e of the canal on equal
terms. In the house, however, the
hill probably will be permitted to
sleep until after the conclusion of
the conference on the limitation of
armaments in which the United
States desires the support of Great
Britain and other nations which pro
tested in 1912 and are prepared to
protest again against violation of the
treaty. .
Party Lines Obliterated. .
I'arty lines were completely
obliterated and some curious political
paradoxes were revealed in the final
t oll call on the bill. Senator Lodge,
republican leader, voted against the
measure, notwithstanding the re
publican platform declaring for it
and President Harding's warm ap
proval of the free toll plank. On the
other hand, Senator Underwood,
democratic leader, registered his vote
in favor of the bill. The republicans
divided, 35 in favor of the Will and
17 against it. The democrats cast
12 votes for the bill and 20 against
it.
The passage of the bill, so far as
the senate is concerned, completely
undoes what President Wilson ac
complished in 1914 when he frankly
repudiated the free tolls plank of
the democratic platform of 1912 and
after one of the most spectacular
parliamentary contests ever waged
in the capitol obtained the repeal of
the free tolls clause of the Panama
canal act.
Text of Bill.
The text of the bill follows:
"Be it enacted by the senate and
house of. representatives of the
United States of America in congress
assembled, that hereafter no tolls
. shall be levied upon vessel passing
through the. Panama canel engaged
in the coastwise .trade of the United
States.
"Section 2. That section 1 of an
act entitled 'An act to amend section
5 of an act to provide for the open
ing, maintenance, protection and op
eration of the Panama canal and the
sanitation and . government of the
canal zone, . approved August- 24,
1912,' which said amendatory act
was passed and approved June IS,
1914, be and the same is hereby re
pealed." Four hours of animated debate
preceded the roll call. The argu

Upper Silesian
Tangle Settled by
League, Report
Industrial Rerion Will Be
Maintained as Economic
Unit for 15 Years Under
Commission.
Buenos Aires, Oct. 10. The indus
trial region. of Upper Silesia will be
maintained as an industrial and
economicMinion for IS years, under
the solution ot the Upper Silesia dis
pute reached by the council of the
league of nations, of which the
Geneva correspondent of La Nacion
says he has authoritatively learned
the substance.
The industrial region would be ad
ministered during this period by an
international commission. The ter
ritory in dispute politically would be
divided into two zones under Polish
and German sovereignty respectivt
ly, and while delimitation of the
frontiers is not yet completed, it
would be more favorably to Poland
than the recent delimitation pro
posed by Great Britain closely fol
lowing the plebiscite line with
Beuthcn assigned to Poland.
While there will be twa distinct
political zones, the industrial region
would be constituted as a single
economic union with the same mone
tary basis and common railway and
industrial administrations.
According to this plan the Ger
mans and Poles would continue to
utilize ' reciprocally the advantages
of the region.
The British and French govern
ments are said to have approved the
project,- thougK- -Italy made ' soma
reservations.

Delinquent Tax
Sales May Aid
State in Crisis
Prompt Remittance of Money
May Avert Registration of
Warrants to Pay
Expenses.
- Lincoln, Oct. 10. (Special.)
State officials look hopefully to the
advertised sale of hundreds ot thou
sands of dollars of Nebraska prop
erty to cover delinquent taxes as
a means of bolstering up the depleted
state treasury.
These taxes, either collected from
the property ownerajor the proper
ty sold, it transmitted in rapid-lire
order to the staee treasury probably
will stave off registration of .war
rants pending the receipt of winter
taxes.
Dan Cropsey, state treasurer, de
clared too ay it was a gamble whetrv
cr the state would be obliged to reg
ister warrants before the taxes be
gan pouring in. He was confident
that a majority of state employes
would get their money at par, but
was dubious whether others to whom
the state was indebted would be
able to get unregistered warrants in
a short time.
Meantime, there is a determination
among state officials to insist that
tax-paying time be changed -by leg
islative enactment so it will dove
tail with the legislative appropria
tion paying tme. This, they declare
is the reason for the present short
age. The legslature appropriated hun
dreds of thousands of dollars to be
paid out of the treasury immediately,
months in advance of the time when
the tax money to cover these ap
propriations is received.
A recommendation for such legis
lation was made by Governor Mc
Kelvie last winter, but was ignore'd.

Chlraio Tribune .((timlia Ilea J .rated Wlr.
New Ytrk, Oct. 11). For many
years the baxc ball harps have been
contending that John J. McGraw, so
long as he adheres to his "hit away"
policy of oficti.se, can never be a
successful world scries manager. He
steadfastly refuses to order his men
to play for one run at a time, rarely
employs the sacrifice or squeeze
plays, and puts on the run and hit
strntvgeni at every opportunity.
There was much in today's fifth
game of the current big series to
vindicate this opinion. The Giants
lost the game, by 3 runs to 1, and the
edge on the series largely because
McGraw, dictating every move of
his athletes by signals rfom the
bench, held out for slugging. The
National leaguers dissipated no more
than three excellent scoring oppor
tunities in consequence of disdaining
the martyr bunts which the canny
Miller HuRuins calls for at almost
every opportunity. ,
Hoyt Finds Self.
With the game count even, a great
burden of responsibility rested today
upon the youthful shoulders of rosy
checked Waite Hoyt, the Brooklyn
lad, in whom McGraw at Mariin
Springs, Tex., a few years ago, failed
to perceive a prospect worth devel
oping. Off to a faltering start. Hoyt
was aided mightily by the Giants'
persistent slam-bang policy of attack
and found himself about the time the
Yanks tied the score at 1-1 in the
third inning, and thereafter pitched
with infinite confidence and cunning.
In sharp contrast of Hoyt's two
hit performance of the second game,
in which he blanked the Giants at 3
0, was the total of 10 hits piled up
by the Giants. The young right
hander again drew as a pitching op
ponent the Giants' leading twirler,
Arthur Nchf, whose southpaw serv
ice won 20 games for the Stoneham
investment in the pennant campaign.
Nehf pitched a great game, limiting
the Giants to six hits, but Huggins
men displayed a happy faculty for
making their hits count. The one
pass Nehf issued was cashed in at
the plate and a bit of masterful
strategy and heroic base running by
the great Babe Ruth resulted in what
proved to be the winning run.
Babe Ruth Faints.
Notwithstanding the numerical ad
vantage of the Giants' safe blows,
their lone run was unearned, but was
born on an error by McNally, abet
ted by a pass to Young and scored
on a flukey hit'
After the fourth, in which the.
Yanks won by scoring two runs on
as many hits, but one Yank reached
first Peck on a scratch hit off
Frisch's shins in the eighth.
Ruth opened the fourth by cross
ing up the Giant inner works and
beating out a perfect bunt toward
third. Bob Meusel doubled down
the left field foul line and Ruth
