Foxy Old Grit.

There's story behind that at.
tempt of Clark Griffith to have a
rule adopted prohibiting the umpire
calling balls and strikes from posi-.
ton behind the pitcher" says Presi-
dent Bob Hedges, of the st. Louis
Browns.
Crit saved himself from defeat
in st. Louis last year by making the
claim that the umpire had no right
to stand In the diamond.
My team was three or four runs
ahead in the fourth inning A storm
was approaching and our players
were trying to hurry along the game.
Suddenly Grif ran out and began
talking to Tom Connolly, who was
standing behind the pitcher. Grit
claimed that Tommy had no right to
judge balls and strikes from there
and pulled out his rule book to make
good his claim
Before the contention had ended
1t must have lasted fifteen minutes
the rain came and we lost our chance
to win the game.

So complete is the tie-up that it was
necessary to have soldiers to guard the

made to run trains. Even newspapers
suspended.
Soldiers are under arms in all cities,
though kept in the background to avoid
melting violence.
v Budapest was the scene Of the greatest
demonstration. Fully 100000 laborers
met at 0 o'clock in Tisza Square and
marched through the principal streets to
State Park, where Socialist orators
made speeches. An attempt was made
to march to Parliament Hall, but it was
prevented by the police.
The demonstrators contented Them
