ll'dlll AFTER MOORE'S BILLIAHD TITLE THIS WEEK Will Endeavor to Capture World's Crown In New York Mitch NEW YORK, Jan. 29 Less than a year ago Charles McCourt. then of Pittsburgh and now of Cleveland, tackled the biggest Job of his life, that of beating Charles Ellis for the Urunswlck trophy, emblematic of the world's three-cushion billiard cham- pionshlp. Hlg as it was. however.

the Job was not too big for the Scot of cuedom, who took the title from Ellin by one point in a memorable battle. A fatal miscwe when needing the winning button has always been blamed for causing Elds' downfall, but If the fans have not b-en enlightened It might not go amiss to tell them, even at this late date, that McCourt also when needing the point that would make him champion. That being even It might be well to explain that both Ellis and Me-Court were working under a tremendous strain In those closing Innings and the chances are that In each case, the miscue was caused by nervousness. Nevertheless. McCourt triumphed over an a Imittedly greater player.

Subsequent events have proved that If It were not proven before. This week at Doyle's academy In New York McCourt will tackle another Job of just as mammoth proportions as when he met and defeated Ellis. He will tackle George Moore, the world's title holder. In the champion's back yard, In an effort to regain the crown he lost to Hugh Heal, who In turn lost to Moore, who has since defended It against De Oro. The match will open Wednesday evening and continue through Thursday and Friday, the experts playing the customary allotment of 150 points of block of 50 for each night.

John Doyle has guaranteed the victor a purse of net. which alone presages a big crowd. Moore has made hlmolf popular In New York and the fans turn out en masse to see the little giant killer perform. Moore Is Favorite That Moore will be a staunch goes without saying. The champion's record speaks for itself and somewhat overshadows that of McCourt by comparison.

George hits twic held the coveted emblem. He won It In the big tourney at Chicago two years ago by trouncing William Huey In the play-off of a tie for first place. He also beat DeOro in the Chicago event, and twice since has downed the famous Cuban In championship play. In fact, the only championship match that Moore has lost s. nee winning the emblem at Chicago waa when Huey took it from him in New York.

He beat He Oro twice and Ilea, once, which gives him three wins In four start, and Moore was never in better stroke for a ir.a'.ch than Is the case at present, while the same cannot truthfully be said of McCourt. Charlie showed rare speed when he won the Interstate league championship last spring, and crowned the feat by trimming Ellis for the world's title, but this season his play in the Interstate has been off color and time after time he has been soundly beaten by supposed Inferior players. Apparently he baa been out of form, and whether he will round Into shape before facing Moore remains to be seen. Frequently a three-cushion player will strike his stride over night, nnd Mr-Court's friends are hoping this way he true of Charlie. When ths Scot Is hitting the Ivories properly, no man In the profession can display a more powerful stroke or get more out of the cue ha 1 than McCourt, but a suspicion exists that Charlie, In his desire to ptufect his safety play, has softened his stroke to the detriment of his game.

Thus It is plain that If McCourt expects to beat Moore he will have to r- -rt to his original method of slamming the spheres, ns he ran scarcely hope to cope with the cKitt--plon In a battle of "safety." at which gnmp Moore Is a pastmaster. McCourt Is essentially a shotmak-er. He ran out-execute Moore, npd if he abandons unnecsarv "oil" and is fivored hv the "breaks" of the match, George will find him a tough cu-'imcr. Horace V. (Jeep) Lean will meet the winner.

Discussing President WilsoVs rematks on universal military service to tho Mary and Preparedness Pelega'ion lust Thursday.

Col. Theodore Htose-velt said In his home nt Sagamore Hill last night that the president had "earned the curse of Meroz for this nation." "President Wilson has announced himself in favor of peace lthout vie-tory," colonel declared, "and miw he has declared himself against nl-versal service that Is, against all rf-fleii nt preparedness by the United States. Natural Ideal of Man "Peace without victory Is the natural Ideal of the man who Is too proud to It Is spurned by all men of lofty soul, by all men nt to call themselves fellow citizens of Washington and Lincoln or of the war-worn fighters who followed Grant nnd Lee. "The Tories of 1776 demanded peace without victory. The Copperheads of 1S64 demanded peace without victory.

These men were Mr. Wilson's spiritual forbears. "President Wilson talks of the freedom of the seas. The basic fvrm of freedom Is to he free from murder. Yet President Wilson has not dared to se ure even ethis elementary freedom for our men, women and chll-die i on the seas.

"Let him remember that to work for disarmament on fhe seas until nfter there has been disarmament vn land by the greit military powers of Europe and Asia Is to put this non-militarist country at the mercy of i every military monarchy; for, Inas-mucn as we are now defenseless on land, our navy is our only safeguard against invasion. Think of Deborah "When fear of the German submarine next moves Mr. Wilson to declare for 'peace without victory' between the tortured Belgians and their cruel oppressors and taskmasters, let him think of the prophetess Ieborah. who, when Sisera mightily oppressed the children of Israel with his chariots of Iron and when 'the people of Meroz stood neutral between the oppressed and the oppressor, sang of them: 'Curse ye Meroz, said the Ansel of Jehovah, curse ye bitterly the Inhabitants thereof, because they came not to the he'p of Jehovah, to the help of Jehovah against the "President Wilson has earned for this nation the curse of Meroz, for he ha9 not dared to stand on the side of the Lord againts the wrongdoings of the mighty." ADVISES IR ON BARM PLANT Buller Asks Government To Join Forces With Minnesota and Dakotas As a result of his investigation Into the wheat rust, problem. Professor A.

H. Puller, of the University of Manitoba, met Hon. Valentine' Winkler, minister of agriculture, and; Hon. Ft. S.

Thornton today, and rec- ommended that the province should Join forces with North und South Dakota and Minnesota In waging a war of extermination aga'st the barberry plant, which bi-fds the spores that spread rust. He also recommended that the government should appoint a permanent Investigator to study all plant diseases. There are very few farberry plants In Manitoba, except In the south, near the boundary, where the worst rust ravages were noted last year, but the spores spread and multiply with great rapidity, the Increase being at the rute of 5,000 from a single spore within seven diys. It is believed that th ores caused the damage to the Manitoba crop were blown from south of the boun- dary. The ministers will take Trofessor Ruller's recommendations Into careful consideration and probably will Introduce legislation later to carry his Ideas Into effect.

Professor Buller has been Investigating the rust-problem In Minnesota and the Dakotas as the representative of the department of agriculture. Rev. J.

Heavy selling by the wheat Export in tho last hour of the session, caused a further decline in wheat values on the local market today.

May futures cosed at J1.71J, a decline of 3 cents, as compared with Saturday's closing quotations. Sentiment at the opening was strong. Initial prices were i to lj cents up on May, cents on July and li hU'her on Oct. futures. This strength was supported for some time In the early session by the stron markets across the lines, together with the announcement of extensive operations in thu North Sta to dose In on the German fleet by the British.

The uncertainty of the Interna-t'onal situation, with peace drawing even nearer; the sinking of the British cruiser, Lawrentic, and possibilities of new submarine developments, were used as bearish factors, and were responsible for the most part of the heavy selling In the last hour, when prices drop; ed nearly two cents below previous close. Trading was active the major part of the session. The rush for selling was demonstrated to some extent in the last part of the session. Government agents were said to be heave sellers and others were following. The feature In the cash business was the light offerings on the market.

Tho big slump In prices last week was the cause of checking the trade in this d.partm-nt. Th" Wheat Export Co. was on the market for grades from No. 1 Northern to No. 5 wheat.

tough there was only a light inquiry- Private exporting houses were also on the market, but trade was restricted owing to scarcity of offerings. Cash oats were unchanged from Saturday, with the same buy3rs In evidence. Cash barley and flax were unchanged In spreads. Decllnea were made on the following leading wheat futures; Cts.
