LEAGUES


Of the Cleveland Americans is univer-
sally conceded to I've the star batter of
the present period. Taken all in all,
Arson of Chicago was unquestionab
the best batter, year after year. of
the seasons in which he was one of
the most active players on the dia-
mond But would Arson fit in as well
now as Lajoie. and would Lajoie have
been an Arson had he lived in the
latter'S time.
Frankly, the answer seems to be that
either man would have been a base
ball star, no matter when he lived.
Both are of the type of free hitters.
Neither was an artificial batter. An
son, possessed of a true eye, would
make the pitcher place the ball where
it could be batted and often would
reach out and hit safely when least
expected to do so, and Lajoie is ex-
actly that type Of batter.
Never but once in his life did Arson
have a batting average in n season Of
less than 800 per cent. Year after
year since Lajoie has been n profess
sional he has been placing 300 aver
ages to his credit.
The greatest hitter in the National
league at the present time is Hans
Wagner. the Pittsburg shortstop We're

Baron Rosen called at the State Depart
ment this afternoon to ask Acting Secretary
PIERCE to arrange convenient date when the

Europe. All the State Department officers
who met the new Ambassador to-day we're
cha armed by his engaging personality.
