league?
Following the second humiliatins
defeat Of the Detroit Tigers by the
Chicago Cubs, this is natura
query, and one that will be
thrashed out in sport pages during
the off season of base ball.
Twice in succession the Tigers
have theoretically proven them
selves superior of all other Amer,
lean league teams, and then been
made to look like novices by the
champions of the National league.
The natural assumption is that the
American league as whole is not
in the same class with the National.
This is not true. | have seen
every club in both leagues in action
in the past two seasons and there
is on the whole no such difference
in class as the victories of the Cubs
over the Tigers would seem to in
dictate.
Here is the explanation, as nearly
as it can be doped out: The Tigers
are not the best all around team in
the American league. They have a
splendid outfield, several great
pitchers, good catcher and a punk
infield. They have won the pen
nant these two past seasons by the
fine pitching of Donovan, Killian
and Summers, the good catching oil
Schmidt, and their great batting.
Each time they have gone into
the worlds series they have lost
their nerve completely. Schmidt
isn't the same man. He can't throw
he can't hit. Nobody can hit. The
infield is a little worse than usua
in its fielding. In their post season
form the Tigers would be easy pick
ing not alone for the Cubs, but fol
any club in the American league
except perhaps New Yorw or Phila
delphia, and for any club in the
National league except Boston o.
st. Louis.
The Cubs are undoubtedly tn,
fastest, classiest, strongest club il
base ball today. They play beau
tiful, wonderful ball But they ar,
not unbeatable. The White So,
showed that when they cleaned
them up two years ago. Chance

WOULD BE INCONSISTENT
Railroads Will Not Cut Wages While
Paying Big Dividends.

Railroads Will Not Cut Wages While
Paying Big Dividends.
Chicago, March $3.50 long as
many of the big railroad systems of
the country continue to pay higher
dividends than they earn, while they
continue to borrow enormous sums of
money, there will not be general re-.
duction of wages on Western rail-
roads.
This decision was reached at a Sc
cret conference of Western presidents
in Chicago. Following the conference
certain labor leaders were given to
understand that the Western roads
did not contemplate an immediate re.
duction, but no reason for the assur-
ance was given. 1t was hoped to keep
the reason from the knowledge of the
public because Of the unfavorable
criticism upon existing methods of
the railroad financing, according to a
prominent railway official. It was the
general opinion, according to this Off,
cial, that business conditions fully
warranted reduction in wages, but
that such action would not be toler-
ated so long as the railroads, or many
of them, are paying their stockholders
large returns and are constantly in the
market as large borrowers.
1t is understood that the presidents
letter to the interstate commerce COM
mission regarding the wage question
is what gave the Western presidents
the tip that Inconsistency in the mat.
ter would not be tolerated by public
opinion or by the president, who is in
position to arouse public sentiment.

BELIEVES THAW is SANE.
His Attorney Disputes Statement Of
AIienist,

New York, March 23.-In an authori-
tative statement Franklin Bartlett,
counsel for Harry K. Thaw and his
mother, Mrs. William Thaw, emphat-
lcally denied that there had been any
disagreement between the members Of
the Thaw family.
THE stories emanating from Pitts
burg in the past few days to the effect
that there has been disagreement or
controversy between the members of
Harry K. Thaw's family over the suit
Of Evelyn Thaw for the annulment Of
her marriage to Harry K. Thaw are
absolutely without foundation" said
Mr.. Bartlett. There has been no dis
agreement of any kind in Mr.. Thaw's
family" -
This statement was made at the re-
quest of Mrs. Thaw, who is now in
Pittsburg. Speaking of the opinion
expressed recently by the alienist, DR..
Allan MoLane Hamilton, that Harry
K. Thaw is hopeless paranoiac Mr.
Bartlett said that on two occasions
recently he had seen Mr.. Thaw in the
Matteawan state hospital and had held
long conferences with him. On both
occasions, he said, Harry Thaw
seemed to him to be perfectly sane.
"Although 1 am not physician or an
alienist," said Colonel Bartlett, this
view is based on experience derived
from the examinations of hundreds Of,
men in my experience as a lawyer, as
a regimental commander and in po-
litical life."

charged with having held up the
Great Northern Oriental limited last

are still at liberty.

their escape several posses were
formed and are now in pursuit Men
answering their des cription were seen
In the southern part of the city max

The men made their escape by saw.

by cutting the bars between the cor

by means of outbuildings and jumped
at least fifteen feet into an alleyway.
The supposition is that they were af-
