NEW SCORING RULE
Is Double Steal Only When Both Rum
ners Are Safe-Other Ball Notes.

Is Double steal Only When Both Rum
ners Are Safe-Other Ball Notes.
In the future when a double steal is
attempted, both runners will be cred
tied with stolen base, if successful,
but if one is caught, neither will get
credit for a pilfer. A passed ball on a
third strike which allows the batter to
reach first, will mean an error for the
catcher. Should it be a wild pitch, the
twirler will be handed a black mark. If
a sacrifice fly is dropped in the outfield,
the batter will be given credit for a
sacrifice, anyway. A base runner who
overslides a bag after making a steal,
will not be given a stolen base.
Frank Ludes and Bert Lamb, the
two Salina boys who will play in the
Western association this year, expect
to report for duty about the middle of

Washington. D. C., April 5.-The su- preme court of the United States to- day affirmed the decision of the United States district court for the District of Colorado in the case of Vim. R. Ma son and PoseDh Vanderweide. who were charged with the murder in 1907 Of Joseph A. Walker. q special agent of the department of justice. while in the discharge of his duty. Walker was killed by Vanderweide while standing guard at the mouth of coal mine in LaPlata county, Colorado. and he and Mason. who was with him at the time of the shooting. pleaded self-defense
 When the case came for trial in the district court of LaPlata county they were discharged. Vanderweider and Mason were indicted by a federal grand jury afterward. but the state proceed ings were held by the federal district court to be a bar against further pros ecution and the two men were again discharged.
