 Fear of car famine creates often false demand. Some shippers fearing they will not get the cars they order will request many more than they need and take chance of having to pay demurrage. This sometimes gives them cars in ex- cess of their needs, and such orders together with constant repetitions of an order for one car, serve to confuse the car service men.
 Again, more cars are in the shop than should be. With the incIeas- ing business more cars get out of order and the railways have not been able to hire competent car re- pairers in sufficient number to care for them. The skilled workmen are not to be had. The Hartman lines have hundreds of "cripples" now on sidings that 1t would be glad to have in service.
 The railway officers say fiatly that 8 reciprocal demurrage bill would make matters much worse. The dollar day penalty exacted from shipper who fails to load or unload within the prescribed AS hours, Is not to secure revenue, but to hasten movements of the cars. To charge the railroads for not supplying cars when ordered would be at times penalizing them be- cause they could not perform inn possibilities. Further, the interstate traffic of California, which is the most value to the state and brings 10 it the larger part of its revenue, would suffer severely through such a law A state reciprocal demur- rage law would have no iurisdic- tion over cars required for inter- state movements; in self defense the railways would have to furnish the cars for movement within the state, and the other business would suffer.
 1t is not justice to us" said an officer of the operating department, ito charge all the business delays to dilatoriness in transportation. We're only one cog in the business machine and not by good deal fhe major factor in the delay that iis mow attacking every line of ef- fort. The tremendously increased cost and scarcity of labor and ma terial, the enormous demand, con- stantly changing conditions, and .o1beY factors tending toward delay, seem to affect every channel of business following an article from its raw state in one point to It's final use at some other. And in some way it seems to have become fashionable to fasten all the delays in the journey upon the railroads. We're not hiding cars nor delay ing; it is our business and our in- terest to supply them wherever they are needed and then get them over the road as quickly as possi- ble. We're doing the best we can ; and law making. while 1t may hamper us, won't show us any new way to do more"

JOY BATS OUT
HIS OWN CAME
Honolulu Boy Seems to Have
Swung Into His Gait and
Is Doing Things.

s. F. Examiner.-Portland is here,
winning streak. At any rate, Moh-
ler's men grabbed off the first game
of the series yesterday and few fell
lows are hoping that they can make it
streak instead of mere flash in the
pan. This, of course, is a matter for
future decision, but the fact remains
that they have broken again into the
won column of that big percentage
table and that s enough for the time
being.
Barney Joy was doing the sending
for Long. Barney is usually all right
until "BrIck' Devereaux starts to kid
him, and then he has trouble. Yester-
day he was fortunate to face a team
which didn't have cred dog' on it,
and he managed to keep his balance
throughout the entire afternoon. Six
hits made up the total from his deliv-
cry, not one of them being good for
more than a single sack. He simply
smiled. and went ahead, all the time
keeping the merry swatters of the
tail-end team in check. Danny Long
was sort of crazy, like an old red fox
when he captured the big fellow in
the wilds of Honolulu.
When Barney wrote that now famous
letter to the folks at home and told
them that he was not being treated
right by his teammates, he must have
been thinking of the battle he was to
have yesterday. Three bad errors were
piled up by the alleged support behind
him, and although the culprits didn t
really mean any harm to Barney, they
came pretty close to losing his game
for him.
The Beavers were the hurry-up lads
at the end of the battle and all but
nosed ahead. Whether the Long crowd
was nervous or not hasn't been deter
mined, but a few of their well-wishers
were when the Beavers busted them
selves and slipped through one run in
the seventh innings and another IN the
eighth, making the ultimate score 80,
instead of 80, which it had been for
comfortable space earlier in the SEES
sion.
Nobody scored until the third inning,
and then it was Joy himself. With two
out he cracked out single to left and
advanced when Shaughnessy was hit
by a pitched ball. Captain Mohler did
the right thing by stepping in and find
ing a single, which brought the pride
of the surf-klssed beaches across the
pan.
In the fifth they went out and grab
bed another tally, and then still
one more. Who do you think started
the operations? Why, Joy. He came
through with another single. Shaugh-
messy clipped off a pretty two-bagger
down past third base, and on that and
Mott s error Joy registered again,
Shaughnessy going to third. Mohler
showed himself as the ever-present fell
low moment later by being good
natured and bunting. He got his name
down in the score for sacrifice and
Shaughnessy breezed in to the plate.
Moriarity singled and was out trying
to steal second.
That let the Seals out of the run
making business. Where they left off,
the Beavers started. That is to say,
that shortly after Longs crowd quit
making marks, Mercedes bunch of
fighting losers began to stir up some

this does not come into computation
when regular averages are figured.
The Hams are out for the game today.
They must have it or be out of the
running.
The Diamond Heads are figuring on
today's game and are looking forward
also to capturing the game from the
Saints next Saturday.
The Saints are not idle and will en-
deavor to keep up their winning stride;
they are at practice again and expect
to crawl up in batting average before
the season closes.
Castle may not appear in the pitch
er's box today, the Puns probably
pitching either Hampton or Desha
against the Saints, both good twirlers.
The winning by the Saints of a ma
jority of its games, though lowest this
season in batting, is causing as much
discussion as the similar fact of the
Chicago Sox. In an interview in the
New York World each rival captain
had a different reason; the New York
captain ascribed it to favoritism of the
umpires, another captain thought it was
luck, another that the team got it's hits
at the right time and still another that
the Chicagos simply outguessed the
rival team. You may take your choice
in our local contest.
The lineup of the picked team to
meet the California team that may
come later in the season is fruitful of
much difference of opinion; this is the
undiluted opinion of baseball fan that
has followed the game with close atten
tion for years and has a pretty fair
line on the players:
Batteries joy and Jones; Reuter-
and Joy.
First--Darcy.
Second-Jim Williams.
Third--Hampton.
ShOrt--Evers.
Left-Ed. Fernandez.
Center-J. Aylett.
Right-Ed. Desha.
ubstitutes-Dusnell, En- Sue, Lemon.
aptain-Gleason.

DOPE SHEET
FOR TODAY
Good Games Promised the Fans
~ 70 on the Local Diamond
p
How 1t Looks.

The fifth games of the second half
of the baseball series will be played
this afternoon; the first game scheduled
being between the Rams and Diamond
Heads, and the second between the
Saint Louis and Puns. These games
should both be interesting, as the Dia-
mond Heads are tied with the Saint
Louis for the lead and the Hams are
only one game behind. Should the
Hams beat the Diamond Heads and the
Puns win from the Saints the three
leaders viii again be tied. This tells
how close the fight is.
The Diamond Head game should
be a warm one. Reuter- is pitching
star ball and his team is backing him
up in good shape; the Diamond Heads
may be looked to for their steady con-
sistent game and the result will be
watched with much interest.
The Saints will have a hard battle
with the Punahous. Steere is back and
is infusing new life into the collegians
and while their lineup is not divulged,
we may depend on seeing a good one.
The Saints will still be shy Jimmie
Williams and Aylett will also be unable
to appear, but En- Sue is rounding into
shape and may be in the game.
To show the play for the season thus
far. the result for the first half, the
second half as far as played and the to-
tai games for the season is given:
FIRST HALF

MERCANTILES
WILL MIX UP

Lovers of the national game will do
well to keep away from the Makiki
grounds tomorrow morning at nine
O'Clock. for the noble game will then
without doubt be slaughtered in such
a manner as to bring tears to the eyes
of the faithful.
The B. F. Ehlers & Co.'S team and
the NJ. McInerny's team will hook up
together, and as two teams make q
four-in-hand, look out.
Both teams have good records. The
Ehlers team never lost a game last sea-
son-they played but one. The Nc
Inernys did better than that. They
likewise never lost a game-but they
never played at all.
Each team will show up players well
known to the followers of the game.
There's Johnnie Jones of the Nc
Inernys. who, a few years ago, 1891 or
therea bouts. was the star bat carrier
of the old Royal School. He has rec
ORD of having carried the bats to ten
consecutive games. and never left the
bench. not even to bat in the last half
of the ninth inning. And Joe Fernan-
dez of the Ehlers team promises to
show the crowd how the game is played
in Portugal. AS he has the same name
as Eddie and Joe Fernandez Of the
lost wears champions, the H. A. C.'s,
he NAV surprise the rooters. Ana
there are others, too.
The game will be called at nine
o'clock. and as a full nine innings Will

the cricketers take, will be allowed aV
twelve for lunch. the game being re-
sumed at p. m, and finished If pos
sible before darkness.

trouble all by themselves. There was

Again in the eighth, the Beavers
worked over a threatening tally, Casey
singled and both Atherton and MeCre-
die went out. Donahue singled, scor'
ing Casey. That s all there was to it.
"ROYAL CORPULENCY."
The sporting editor of the Call began
his account of the game by saying:
"The believing voice of Youngey
johnson, who was turned loose in the
Freeman park Enclosure to umpire the
game between the San Franciscos and
Portlands; the masterful twirling and
all around playing of his royal eorpu-
lency from the land of the kanakas,
Barney Joy, and the temperance of
the veteran Anterior, who guarded the
initial base for the aggregation from
Oregon, were the features of the ma
tional pastime contest pulled off in
Oakland yesterday afternoon.
The Chronicle says of Joy in its COM
ments:
''Barney Joy, whom many look upon
as the pitching "find' of the present
season, will probably pitch for the
home team tomorrow afternoon at Re-
creation park. He is showing steady
improvement and will soon rank with
the star twirlers.'
The San Francisco Bulletin also
throws a big lei about Barney's neck.
In its issue of the 10th is the follow
ing:
THAT it does not pay to discard a
ball player too hastily is shown by the
work that Barney Joy is now doing
for the Seals. When the big fellow
first occupied the slab he was roasted
to the Queens taste and IL was gen.
orally thought that he was the biggest
kind OF a lemon" However, by a. lit
tie perseverance the husky twirleT
has managed to get better control and
he has a beautiful drop ball that he
is learning to break at the proper angle.
so it would not be at all startling to
see him develop into one of the stars
of the league. There is one depart
ment in the game where he outshines
all of the other pitchers and that is
in batting. He certainly can lambast
the horsehide and with careful coach
ing and practise there Is no reason
why he shouldn't learn how to field
hunts and pick up all the finer points
of the game. A little more boosting
and less knocking will help the Ho-
nolulu chap a heap.
