Chicago. Aug 26.-One more attempt
at splking a fellow-player may put
sudden quietus to the gllttering career
OF Tyrus Raymond Cobb. star Of the
champion Detroit club. President John
son tonight declared himself. and In no
mild tones, against the rowdy tactics OF
the Georgia Peach. who is said to have
maliciously driven his armored shoes
against Third Baseman Bakers arm dur
ing the series just closed between the
Athletics and Tigers.
There has been altogether too much
OF this sort OF game at Detroit" as
serted Mr.. Johnson this evening, "and
somebody is going to be made a shining
example Of II hear Of another such affair
Cobb seems to be the chief offender. and
word of advice should go a long way.
He must stop that sort of playing or he
viii have to quit the game. Steps win
be taken next winter TO overcome the
possibilities OF spiking players. Just
what action viii be taken I am unable
Ia state, but chances are players Will
be asked TO wear shorter spikes than
before"
Connie Mack has about decided TO pass
up the case OF Baker and Cobb. No Off
cial protest has reached President John
son.
Jennings Defends Cobb.
Special to The Washington Herald.
Chicago. Aug 26.-NIanager Hughey
Jennings. Of the Tigers. comes back
strong at Connie Mack, who accuses Ty
Cobb Of deliberate dirty work in splking
his third baseman. Frank Baker
Hughey says that Connie Is simply
showing the yellow streak. Connie is
sore because the Tigers outgamed his
bunch" said tie leader of the Detroit
club. He was sore because his men
showed streak OF the same yellow
they exhibited in Philadelphia when we
dropped in and won a pennant two years
ago.
"As far as Cobb was concerned. Con-
MES entire squeal IS occasioned by the
fact that Cobb didn't give up and con-
eede he was out by not sliding for the
base. Ty has never vet asked for any
thing but his rights. He has never hurt
a man who was not directly on the base
lines, deliberately taking a chance.
When the other players In this league
come TO the conclusion that the base lines
are Cobb's property and that he IS going
to insist on the rights guaranteed him
by the rules, there VIII be no more
spil1ing
"As for barring Cobb out OF organized
baseball, the idea Is too absurd for me

in the fourth, two more tallies had been
added to the credit OF Detroit, and. as on
Tuesday, the diminutive Dygert replaced
the humiliated star.
The damage in this inning was the re-
suit Of a double by Moriarity, a single by
Mullin. and Collins muff OF a heave by
Krause. A hit. a sacrifice, and an error
netted the final score for Detroit in the
sixth.
MulIin n Puzzle.
Four hits was the best that the Ath-
letics could get from Mullin. a single IN
the second. Collins double in the fourth.
and a pair OF bingles In the sixth. The
first two men up in the latter session hit
safely. but a double play and an easy
fly snuffed out the only chance the Wis
itors had to escape a shut-out. Thus
ended the most exciting series Of games
seen on the local diamond this season.

ating for the return Of 1t. Miss Van

Fishing by Telephone.

Consul Louis Goldenschmidt Of
Nantes, France, makes the report that
a use for the telephone in fishing has
just been invented in Norway. A mi
crophone, the role of which consists
in amplifying the submarine sounds,
is shut up in a thin water-tight steel
box and kept in constant communica-
ton by metallic wires with a tele-
phonic receiver installed on the fish
ing boat. 1t is stated that with this
apparatus the fisherman is always
informed of the approach of fish.
Moreover, it is said that each kind of
fish gives in the instrument a par
ticular sound. Thus the arrival of
herring is signalized by a sort of
whistling; the Goldfish announces its
arrival in the neighborhood by a sort
of grunting.-Daily Consular and
Trade Reports.

mother, thinking he was simply try
ing to get out, at first payed no atten-
tion to the disturbance he was Gre
ating. However, after Bill kept the
good work going for some time and
called to his mother to come and see
what the dog had done, Mrs. Swezaa
went inside and instituted an imme-
date crusade against the flames.
