T,Gr ND SHERMAN

The republican Hau0ua. cone
vention at Chicago nominated
VIM. Il. Taft on the frs, ballot
for president on Thursday and
on yesterday nominated Con-
gresham Sherman of New York
for vice president. The latter
was something of q surprise. as
it had looked like either Fair
banks or Dolliver or Cummius.
According 90 advices at hand
the vote on presidential nominal
tion resulted as follows.
Taft 1O3; LaFol,ettc, 25; Fora
ker, 16; Cannon, 81, Fairbanks,
30; KnoS, Is Hughes, o. Roose-
Welt, 3.
Nothing is known 40 th.s time
as 70 how the vice-pres.deaua.
vote stood other than that Sher-
man is the nominee.

closely on the heels of this was
the cutting up of the large ranch

Chicago, Feb. 2l.-Baseball hasn't
been famed out by the financial flur-
ry-in fact the national sport has
come to bat stronger than ever, ac-
cording to the jobbers of baseball
things. The total Of orders for
masks and mits, for bats and ding
bats of the diamond already has
started zenithward, like a sure
enough fly over the homerun fence.
In connection with this commercial
aspect of the coming seasons sport,
the big league rumors are, flying
thick and fast. like cushions from
the grandstand at emotional climaxes.
Steinfeldt's new contract with Presi-
dent Murphy permits an anxious pub
lie to relax, secure in knowing the
same infielders of the Worlds cham
pion Cub team will throw to Cap
tain Chance on first base as threw TO
him last year. For the White Sox
team the signing OF Nick Altrock has
been hailed as convincing proof that
the White Sox luck Is changed, par
ticularly as the contract has tenn
perance clause. The grand national
all Amerian team OF professional
players from 1871 to 1907 now has
been madeup as follows: Spauldins
