ARCHER A COMING CATCHER.
Moran's Understudy with Cubs-Good
 Thrower, Has Eagle Eye on Bases.

With Kling out of the game. one of the problems which has confronted the Chicago management has been the position behind the plate. Kling is not only fine mechanical catcher. but he is a wise general, and many a game has been won through the crafty man. ner in which he watched the men at bat. as well as by his ability to cut off base runners
 Moran has been doing the bulk of the work for the Chicago, but Chance says Archer, youngster whom he has gathered under his wing, is one of tine most promising young men he has had with the Cubs for some time. and in the future he would not be surprised if Archer were to hold his own against the good catchers of the big organiza- tion. He has a strong throwing arm and. more than his ability to throw. he has a watchful eye In his head. which keeps careful notice of the batters of the opposing teams.
 It isn't likely that he will be used very much in the regular games, unless

YALE CREW IS GOOD.
Formal Row at New Haven Shows
 Them Fast Against Freshmen-Hope of Beating Harvard Revived.

What has been a prevailing feeling of uncertainty about the Yale varsity crew all the season was changed into one of confidence that the Blue oars- men would be worthy representatives of their alma mater as a result of the last work on New Haven harbor Mon- day night before leaving for Gales Ferry.
 The varsity was sent over the full racing distance against the freshmen and after passing them in the first quarter of mile won. from them handily in fast time.
 Of the conclusions to be drawn the New Haven Register says:
 ! The Yale crew is good. From a mass of the most inexperienced material A coach has had to work with in recent years, John Kennedy has developed a strong and rugged eight. It was re- served, however for the very last ap- pearance of the oarsmen on home wa ters before the full and finished prod uct of the years work could be seen.

Gales Ferry, June 10.-Despite a hard Tain which fell here all day the Yale crews were out on the water this morning and late this afternoon. The morning row of the varsity eight was an eas yone of a mile up the Thames with coaching on watermanship and the handling of oars inboard.
 The afternoon practice vas over the full four-mile course downstream in hard rain, but with a favorable tide and wind and comparatively smooth water. The distance was covered in twenty minutes and 45 seconds, which, while not entirely satisfactory, was considered good time in view of the weather conditions and the fact that has been able to row the full four miles.
 The freshman eight, coached from the launch, rowed down stream for two miles and return, and were fol- lowed byA the two varsity fours and the freshman four.
 Examinations, which will extend over period of nine days began to- day in unison with those in New Ha- ven. Professor -Durfee of the college and Dr. Cooper of Sheffield Scientific school are in charge.
 The launch John Harvard, of liar yard, came up the river late today.
 George St. John Sheffield of North Attleboro, Mass, was the first of the old guard to report. He came on the same train with the oarsmen on We'd nesday and will remain till the races on July 1. The veteran brought along his rowing Hog" which contains the official time of every trial spin and race taken by Yale oarsmen in forty years. Julian w. Curtiss, the Yale rowing adviser, may not come here this week. His son. Harry Curtiss. the Yale crew assistant manager, is ill with tonsilitis, and 1t is thought that both will be absent a few days.
 Valentine ChappeH. chairman of the regatta committee, has made an early start in plans for the race by en- tirely Tagging the course. The white pennants are already floating in mid stream at every half mile and the time spin of the crews can be accurately measured

dock Monday night just before sun set the two crews were sent over the full racing distance in the gathering sunset.
 Shooting into the lead the s912 os-rsmens dashed pluckily ahead, But were soon overhauled by the steady regulars, who wore the class eight down. and passed them before they had gone a quarter of mile. From this point the varsity had the race well in hand.
 Yale men cannot but feel encour- aged at the result of the rowing, but they must remember that Harvard has a record-breaking crew of veter- ans and Yale has a herculean task to row four miles to victory on the Thames, in three weeks.

maintaining prices which eliminated
competition and violated the law re-
ferred to.
Attorneys for the defendant COM
panies filed a demurrer to the COM

by enc company different from those

same place, a conspiracy.
The case was tried at Webster last

TORNADO IN SOUTH
KILLS A SCORE

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 9.-The storm
which passed over Mississippi, Ala
pama and Georgia yesterday, in nu-
merous sections reached the proper
tfons of a tornado.
Reports received today tell Of the
deaths of more than a dozen persons,
fatal injuries to almost as many more
and serious injuries to many Others In
h states named. 1t is believed the
reports from h devastated district to-
day will greatly Increase the number
OF fatalities.
Telegraph and telephone service is
badly crippled. this condition extending
into south Carolina, and 1t will mean
several days before communication
with some towns and villages which
suffered most from the effects Of the
high winds will be restored.
The storm center Travelled east from
north Texas and appears to have
wrought the greatest havoc in northern
Alabama. although high winds pre-
vailed throughout the length and
breadth OF that state, reaching the We
locity of 46 miles per hour as far south
as Mobile, where the torrential rain
was accompanied by hail.
