ATLANTA, Ca, March 1s.-The
H~ighlanders were obliged to remain
idle again yesterday afternoon on ac-
count of an exhibition game being
played by the Macon and Atlanta
teams. The New Workers had a three
hours workout in the morning, and
the sun caused the players to perspire
freely. DR.. Newton pitched to the bats
men for an hour. When he curved the
ball the men had some difficulty in
connecting safely with 1t, but Stahl
and Conroy made several solid drives
during the practise.
Moriarity and Conroy We're at third.
dividing the grounders batted in their
territory by Griffith. Moriarity looks
to be in condition already. He f1eIded
we'll and batted hard. Ball was al
shortstop, and kept up his good work,
making several fine stops of high line
drives and taking some difficult throws
from the catchers.

COBB SAYS YANKS
ARE TEAM TO BEAT.

ATLANTA, Ga, March 1S.-In honor
of Erin's sons. who form a goodly por-
ton of his team, Manager Griffith yes
terday excused his men after a stiff
~four-hours' workout in the morning.
y Tyrus Cobb. who left for Detroit this
morning, was out bright and searly to
look the Yankees over, and Grifith's
boys certainly CAV him something to
think about and carry back ~ his mas
tiers. 1t was the keenest practise of
the season. with all hands on deck. A
great deal of attention was paid to
signal work and base-running. Also
the hit-and-run, bunting and squeeze
lessons were rehearsed.
Cobb was more than surprised with
the form displayed by the Yankees.
Il think the team that beats New
York will win the pennant. There is
not a weak spot in the outfit, and Crit
fifth seems to have rounded out a pitch
ing staff that is as good as anything in
baseball. OF course, I think Detroit
will win. I am sure of it, but / believe
New York will finish no worse than
second and will give us as close a run
as did the Athletics last year"
