YOUNG PLAYERS
FOR BIG LEAGUES
Many Changes Will be Noted
in Makeup Of Major League
Teams in 1910

The days Of the old timer in baseball are
numbered. Few major league players who
were In their prime ave OF six years ago
will hold down regular positions In the
fastest company IN 1910. In the old days,
the days OF 1897 ana 1900. little was .hoGBht
OF an athletes remaining IN the big
leagues for ten or even fifteen years And
there are many In the American and Ma
tional leagues now who have been playing
In the highest class for an unbelievable
length Of time. The list OF minor iCaguers
drafted or purchased by major league
teams this year was enormous Il showed
that baseball IN the bushes was on
higher plane this season than ever be-
fore and &c showed that major league
scouts realized this fact. But it showed
above an that the great demand Is for
youngsters. The success Of the Boston and
Philadelphia clubs IN the American
league and the pittsburg. Cincinnati and
st. Louis teams IN the National has
brought forcibly to the minds OF the mag
mates the realization that championship
aggregationB are developed from young
blood and that tho sooner they infuse this
young blood into their own clubs the
sooner will those clubs have chance for
the championship.
There are veterans on all tho winning
teams in both leagues. 70 be sure. But
the veteran Of the future VIII be the vet
eran OF four years experience rather than
Of eight or ten. Speed is what the major
league club owners are looking for. The
Detroit. Philadelphia and Boston Amerl-
cans and the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and ST.
Louis Nationals are full OF IT, The Ath-
ietics. the Rcd sox. the Reds the Pirates
and the Cardinals made good this year
more because their recruits have made
good than because their veterans have
held up their end.
In over half the cities Of the big league
circuit the fans next year will have a
hard time recognizing their favoriie teams
so changed win be the makeup ~ those
teams. But the fans, like the American
public. welcome changes ar d the magnatei
are going to give them what they wan
in that respect at least.

STRIKING GLAZERS
ARE STILL OUT

The Bower glazers. who went on
strike at the New Castle Leather
Company's plant, on Monday OF this
week, are still out and as far as was
learned to-day the conditions remain
tho same.
Yesterday a committee OF twelve Of
the glazers waited upon Richard Pat
zowslxy, president of tho company. The
latter wanted the men to go TO work
and try working piece work at ten
cents a dozen, but the glazers, know
ing Just how many skins IL is possible
to glaze a day, would not listen to the
proposition, claiming that they would
not make as much as 81 a week, the
old rate of wages, by working at the
piece work price offered by the firm.
The men insisted on an increase of
81 a week, but this Mr.. Patzowsl1y
would not grant and the meetlnw was
without avail.

important Japanese City Is Swept by
Terrible Confagraton.
Osaka, Japan, Aug. 2.-At O'Clock
yesterday morning the terrible confa-
grafton which has reduced to ashes a
large portion of this city was under
control. Up to that hour 13, 600 build
ings had been destroyed. An area four
miles square was swept by the flames.
A fire which threatened to destroy
this city started at 4 O'Clock Saturday
morning. At 80 Saturday night the
fire had consumed one fifth of the town.
The firemen who had been fighting
all day, were completely exhausted and
troops were called out to assist in the
fire fighting and to preserve order in
the city.
The exact amount of damage done
by the flames cannot be estimated at
present, but the total will be large. A
number of persons have been killed
and seriously injured by the fire.
Osaka is one of the Imperial cities"
of Japan, and is one of the most i'm
portant manufacturing and commercial
cities of the empire. 1t shelters al
most three-quarters of a million peo-

pies, for which the city is famous

Repeated Shocks in Mexico Add to
Earthquake Damage.

Repeated Shocks in Mexico Add to
Earthquake Damage.
City of Mexico, Aug. with the
people absolutely frightened and trem-
bling in terror from their awful exper-
ience in Fridays earthquake shocks,
five distinct shocks were felt again
Saturday. and the damage Friday is
light compared with the damage Satur-
day.
All communication was cut off from
Chilpancingo, Acapulco and surround
ing towns by the quakes, after it was
restored following Fridays shocks. but
information of the serious nature OF
the shocks came through before the
wires went down. In every instance
the frightened operators at the keys in
the stricken towns, talking to the
equally frightened operators in the
capital, declared "the town is COM
pletely wrecked" or words to that
effect.
The operator at Chilpancingo, capital
of the state of Guerrero, reported that
the palace of Governor Damien Flores,
which had been partially wrecked, COM
pletely tumbled down, but that the
family had left its crumbling walls.
The shocks here were more severe
than the former ones were, and not an
American and but few foreigners re-
mained indoors. The parks and plazas
are crowded to overfiowing and many
people are in actual want of food.
