GOOD BOATING STAGE
In the Ohio Brings Delight to the
Rivermen-PIenty of Water in
Sight, Says Capt. Cole.

Old river men cannot remember
when the Ohio was at such a fine
boating stage as it just now. The
late rains have started the Ohio on
small rampage and there will be a
good FLYER for a long while
Capt Mark Cole in an interview
with the Paducah Sun stated that it
would go to fifteen or eighteen feet,
which would permit all boats 10 run,
He thought that without any more
rain there would be a stage of water
for boats until the middle of Noyem-
Der but ii is reasonable to believe
that there will be considerable rain
between the present and that time
Il don't remember such water in
October" said Capt Cole. 1T is IN
precedented | can't remember when
there was as much water as there is
now II is very early for the fall rains
TO set in and if they continue there
may be a food this year"
The Lee line boats are preparing
to enter the trade between Memphis
and Cincinnati and there is plenty Of
water for them to rim without any
danger of being grounded. The pres
ent time is a little early for this trade
because business IS not good on the
river The principal freight being
moved now is corn and cotton and
no cotton is handled on the Ohio.
Towboats are leaving Pittsburg
with coal for the south, which is a
sign that the river men there expect
a good rise. Several tows have al
ready been started.

Detroit's Fine Pitching Staff.

If pitchers could make club, the De-
trolts would certainly be the finished ar
tcle, as the Wolverine twirlers are certainly
ton, New York and Cleveland. But an in
field is necessary and although they have
Bill Coughlin to help out, the ex-Washing-
ton boy can not play the other three posi-
lions. Schaefer may prove the Jewel he is
"touted' to be, and for the sake of Joe
jackson 1t is to be hoped that he makes
good with a vengeance, but the American
boys weakness and he will have a hard
row to travel The outfield may improve
its batting and Sam Crawford may turn out
TO be a fine first baseman, but II Is doubt
full. AS a leader Bill Coughlin will last
about three weeks. He is one of the best
hearted boys in the game, but SO hot
headed that he will be benched on an
average of about six times a week. This is
the team Washington will have to beat to
get out of last place, and the chances
never looked brighter than they do for the
desired end. Manager Armour has figured
well as handler of young players and
he may do better with the Tigers than he
did with the Blues, but his experience in
Cleveland Is certainly hard handicap to
live down.
The Detroit team will be made I'D of the
Following players: Drill, Wood, Graham and

Chicagos Look Good.

With Mcfarland back, Holmes in good
condition and Manager Jones one seasons
experience as leader under his cap, the
Chicagos have a good look for the coming
summer The first named dissipated last
year to such an extent to be almost
worthless to his team. and the chances are
that he has come to his senses at last and
will play ball Mcfarland classes up with
Crlger in the catching line, and is even
more valuable than the Boston man on
account of his batting. "Ducky'' Holmes
was playing remarkable ball when injured
last season and his loss was irreparable.
Callahan started out as manager and cap
tain and was replaced, after bad start,
by Jones The record of the White Sox in
the matter of hard luck equals that of New
York and they may have things coming
their way this season. II they do look out,
as II Is undoubtedly the fastest team on the
bases In the country. Time after time last
season the Chicagos demonstrated this and
the Bostons and New Yorks feared them
the most on this account. This aggregation
has now become fully seasoned and will
start the summer with practically the same
team as last year. which means great
deal when II comes to working together.
Manager Jones will have gotten over the
worries of leadership and should bat some
thing like his true self. With the rough

New York Highlanders.

The New Yorks finished second last year
and there are many players who have al
ready placed the Highlanders in front at
the end Of the coming season, but there have
been many quarrels in the team which may
cut an important figure this summer. The
western contingent of base ball writers
almost TO a man place the New Yorks well
down in the championship race and say the
-Grifithites will do well to finish In the
first division There Is certainly nothing
like harmony in a ball team and Clarke
Griffith may yet be the Moses to lead his
boys out OF the wilderness. The High
landers were certainly in bad luck last
season in the matter of having players in
1ured at critical points in the championship
race but there are many in Washington
who will agree that the over-confidence OF
Griffith and his men lost as many games as
accidents to the players. The old Baltimore
crowd used TO make point of mailing
game with the tail end teams and then
take chances with the first division boys,
but the New Yorks lost enough games in
Washington last season to knock them out
OF the championship OF course, the local
team played good ball, but the visitors
looked far from championship timber in
this city last fall.
Another big point is first base, where Can
gel NAV not be this season, No matter who
they put there he will not class up to
CAMEL IN fielding, and the strange part
about this players base ball career is
that he can hit well in every city except
New York. The New Yorks won numerous
games away from home and it should not
be overlooked that Cancels stick played
a good second to that Of big John Ander-
son in driving In winning runs. This man
Chase, over whom a great fuss has been
made, has yet to be proven in frst-class
company. and reports from the coast put
him down as ordinary" Anderson doesn't
like to play first and consequently is only
a make-shift. With Camel away and Ell
berfeld disgruntled Manager Griffith will do
well to get his team inside the coveted
first division.
The New Yorks' payroll will contain the
following names this season: Mcclure
Kleinow and McManus, catchers; Chesbro,
Griffith Powell. Orth, Clarkson, Newton,
Whitley. Pullman, Holycross and Hogg.

Manager Stahl will be able to pull the Ma
tfonals out of last place in-the champion
ship race. and secondly the position of the
different American League clubs at the
end of the season. The rechristening OF the
Washington team may add good luck TO
the local outfit, and Ii Is foregone concur
sion that the fans will give hearty sup
port to all the efforts of Manager Stahl.
Later in the season the Nationals Will be
discussed as to their chances in advancing
up the championship ladder
All the experts wise men of the game
agree that the race in the American League
will be closer than ever this season. Cleve-
land and Chicago have been materially
strengthened and the members of these two
teams have made up their minds to snare
honors with Boston and New York from
the drop of the flag TO the finish of the
race.
