will have the Free Press cup cinched.
Shugarts catch of liner in the second

Since the appointment of General Superin-

OF the entire Great Northern system and the
retirement of General Manager Warren, there
has been considerable speculation as to the
future method of conducting the operating
ana trafhc departments. The circular issued
by President Hill stated that the business
of the road would be handled through the
office OF the general superintendent which
means that the Offices of the general man
ager and that OF general superintendent will
be practically consolidated. Yesterday the
records of the general managers department
were transferred to the Office Of the general

again, while the visitors did better than in
former games. They made the creditable rec
ord of four double plays. There was little
shifting in their ranks, Sharpe taking McCor-
mack's place at third. while Jones went into
left field, Pete Daniels into right and Cantfl-.
Ion played second base. The team was per-
ceptibly strengthened by these changes. Joe
