PICKS MACKMEN TO
BEAT CHICAGO CUBS
Patsy Donovan Thinks Athletics
Will Capture Worlds Series,
But Not Without Struggle.
BOSTON TEAM IS
TO REMAIN INTACT
If Any Changes Are Made It Will Be
on Pitching Staff-What
Tigers Really Need.

DETROIT, September 24.-Manager Pat
sy Donovan of the Boston club believes
that the American League, represented by
the Athletics, will have the honor of num-
bering worlds champion team among
its members before the end of October.
Patsy is more or less of a conservative
in the way of making predictions, and
when he goes on record as dopester. 1t
full consideration.
The Boston leader does not believe that
it will be walkover for the Athletics, but
anticipates a great struggle. He figures
that the Mackmen's magnificent pitching
staff will be the means of bringing about
victory; believing that Cubs will find the
Philadelphia hurlers an enigma. Plank Is
the man who Donovan figures on to be
particularly effective in the big series.
THE Athletics have wonderfully well
balanced club, said Donovan yesterday,
land they have been playing fine ball
luck they ought to be able to win the
worlds series, but there are sure to be
some fine battles before 1t Is decided.
1t looks as though Boston would about
stand pat on it's lineup next year. The
intield and outfield will be left intact, ac-
seems a wise one in view of the general
excellence of these departments. The
Speed Boys probably will break in a cou'
pie of young pitchers in 1911, but, aside
from such hurting talent as may be able
to make a place, it seems unlikely that
any youngsters will be able to get their
names on the score cards.
Effective pitching throughout the season
would make the Donovan OUTFIT very
formidable one. 1t was the failure OF the
hurting corps to hold opponents as much
as anything that put the club out of the
race for this years flag. Some of the re-
cruit beavers now with the outfit are
showing up we'll, and Manager Donovan
believes that with the acquisition OF
Frank Smith his club received pitcher
who will prove very valuable.
According to a local afternoon paper
all that the Tigers need to assure them
selves the 1911 pennant is to find players
who are better than Sam Crawford. Davy
Jones, Matty Mcintyre, Tom Jones
Schmidt. Stanage and Casey, not to men
ton two good, reliable twirlers.
The only hitch in this program might be
the difficulty of finding the necessary
stars to take the places of the weak
lings'' mentioned. II the local club Is
lucky enough to find one man next year
who can displace one of the present reg
ulars it will be doing well. To ask for
half dozen stars of sufficient brilliancy
to chase the players now wearing Tiger
uniforms is the rankest sort Of absurdity

JUDGE JOHN K. SHIELDS
An lrishman, a Farmer and a
Democrat Is the East Ten
nessean From Historic
Beans Station.

Born on a farm, and still loving
the farm, Judge John X. Shields, al
though now an able member of the
Supreme Court, still owns and runs
a farm and delights in its every fea-
ture. In fact, the East Tennessee
Justice was born on the same farm
he now owns at Beams Station, near
the Shields family having emigrated
from County Armagh, and his moth
er's people from County Antrim, Ire
land. When still a youngster, he be-
gan reading law in the Office of his
father-Judge James T. Shields. He
successfully stood the bar eXamina-
tions and in a short while has ac-
qufred distinction in his profession
Without solicitation on his part he
was appointed Chancellor of the
Twelfth Chancery Division by Gov
ernor Pete Turney. He was not a
candidate to succeed himself and, at
the end of the term, he formed a
partnership with r. e. l.. Mountcas-
tie, then at MoTriStown.
Prior to this Judge Shields had
been a member of the firm of James
T. and John X. Shields, the senior
member being his father, Judge
Shields, and he did a large general
practice in East Tennessee counties
as member of this firm, including
every class of business in the lava
practice the benefits of which were
afterwards demonstrated in his able
career on the Supreme bench.
Since occupying seat on the
bench, Judge Shields has banded
down many notable and able opin.
ions that are now cited as Tennessee
law among them being Railroad Co.

ing the right of eminent domain and

tional the law which took from the
governor the right to name election
officers; these and many others. The
able and convincing opinion of Judge
Shields In the election case has in.
Cured for him the undying enmity Of
the Patterson administration.
John *. Shields was married in
1885 to Miss Mary FulEerson, daugh.
ter Of Colonel Frank NJ Fulkerson Of
Rogersville, but Mrs, Shields lived
only four months after marriage, and
he has never remarked.
Judge Shields, upon his fathers
death, became the owner of the farm
upon which he was born and has re-
sided all his life, and is now conduct
ing the same as q stock farm, in
which business he is much inter
ested
His social relations have been
largely with the country people,
among whom he resided and he is
perhaps more popular with that ele-
ment of the population of the state
than any others, having many friends
and acquaintances among the farm
ers and stock raisers of all parts of
the state.
He has always been an active and
consistent Democrat, taking an ac-
tive interest in the welfare of the
party since his majority, but was
never a candidate for a popular office
until he was elected judge Of the
Supreme Court in 1902.
He was chairman of the state Dem
ocratic convention which nominated
Governor Robert L. Taylor for a
third term in 1896; was q delegate
to the national convention at Chicago
which nominated William jennings
Bryan for president, and was one of
the first of the Tennessee delegation
who voted for Mr.. Bryan. He was
also elected as delegate for the state
at large to the national Democratic
convention held at st. Louis in 1904,
Soon after he announced for re-
election, Judge r. M. Barton, Jr., an
nouneed himself against Judge
Shields; but after a years canvass
of the state he concluded Judge
Shields would be nominated and re-
tired, and announced for his old posi-
ton as Judge of the Court Of Civil
Appeals. He has since changed to
candidacy for the Supreme bench.

Judge Beard took up the practice

the death Of Judge Fowlkes. At the

PROSECUT|ON n
Of PACKERS

CHICAGO, Dec. 27-Assistant Unit
ed states District Attorney James II.
WilRerson late today issued 4 state
ment regarding his action In sweep
ing aside civil suits to make way for
criminal prosecution Of the men COM
posing the National Packing company.
To Prosecute Packers.
Mr.. Wilkerson says there is but one
reason for dismissal of the civil case,
and that Is the desire of the govern
ecution of the packers.
The statement issued by Mr.. Wilk-
erson follows:
The petition against the packers
was filed on the 21st of March, 1910.
Afterward there was a grand jury in
vestigation. as a result of which in
dlctments were returned, charging
some of the defendants in the bill
with criminal violation OF the anti.
trust laws.
Were Granted Many Extensions.
Since the return of those indict-
ments. the defendants in the equity
case have asked several extensions of
time within which to answer and
those extensions have always been
granted
1T was thought to be fully nnder-
stood by both the government and the
attorneys for the packers that there
were to he no further proceedings In
the equity case until the trial of the
criminal cases.
The purpose OF the dismissal of
the equity cases is to make clear the
position OF the government that the
trial OF the criminal cases is to be
vigorously pushed and is to be Inter
fered with in no way whatever by
the pendency of the equity casos in
the circuit court
May Not Resort to Petition In Equity,
1t may be that a resort to a peti.
tion In equity to enjoin future viola
tions Will be entirely unnecessary If
the governments contentious are es-
tablished in the criminal cases.
The attorney-eencral. therefore. di-
rected the dismissal of the equity case
without prejudice. Further proceed
lngs to enjoin future violations can,
of course, be instituted If those pro-
ceedings should be found necessary
to maintain fully the position of tho
government in this litigation"
