COUNSEL HARTRIDoE's CLAIM
 IS IN HANDS OF JURY.
Sealed Verdict Ordered to Be Re-
 turned This Morning.

New York. April 12.-clifford w. Hartridge's claim of SS2.000 against Mrs. Mary CopIey TlElw. which he says is due him for services and exx penses in the defense of her son, Hars ry K- Thaw. slayer of Stanford White. is in the hands of the jruy. which has been ordered 10 return sealed verdict tomorrow morning. The law yer has already been paid $32.00O, but he claims s92.000 more, with interest, making his fee in all about $125.000.
 Judge Holt, in charging the jury this afternoon. took up the matter of Hartridge's payments to women in the Tenderloin in order to smooth out stories concerning Thaw. The plain tiff claims that he saw different wo- men every night said the court Whether such claim on it's face is highly improper is for you gentlemen to say. If you find that the plaintiff has padded his expenses. then you are to reject all of his testimony in this connection. These charges are extra ordinary and if bribery was the ob- ject, to keep witnesses from testify ing, it was illegal, and makes it an effense in that it tends corruptly to obstruct the course of justice.
 Even if Harry K Thaw knew all about these expenditures, it does not make his mother responsible for them unless it has been shown that she knew about and ratified such expendi- tures.''

COACHING BASE STEALING.
Penn University Coach Takes Les
 son from Ty Cobb.

The influence of Ty Cobb is nnaling g itself felt in baseball and when the Flying Georgian is sitting upon the front porch at Royston with his grand of the days when he helped revolution ize the national game. At the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, baseball coachers are teaching the varsity players the art of sliding properly. You'd think when boy had been playing ball long enough to make the varsity he would know how to slide, but. as matter of fact, the number of high class men in the professional game who slide properly is lamentably small.
 There are hundreds of ball players who can pilfer a large number of bases every season. They are fast on their feet and manage to elude the man at second and third often enough to be regarded dangerous when they reach first But 90 per cent of them would be more dangerous if they really knew how to slide.
 Ty Cobb knows how. He proved this to men who had been in the game ing lived. When Ty began slipping around the base lines he gave tradition a punch and made precedent look like 8 twoyspot.
 Men began to talk about the s'Geor- gia Peach" and rasebaIl critics picked him to write yarns about Between his terrific hitting and wonderful base running. Cobb became a marked man.
 It's funny thing about baseball. Managers seldom copy the good things they see For instance. Cobb ahas been getting away with his perfect sliding for three or four years, yet only here and there you see 8 player ennulating him.

PlTTseuRe AND DETROIT LINE
Leaders in Two Leagues Make Little
 Change from Last Season.

But two uncertainties remain to clear up the initial lineup of the worlds champions of 1909 These are first base and the box Caninftz will be box mainstay again this season, and Adams will likely come in for a. good deal of work. George Gibson will be the catcher and Wagner and Miller are sure to be in their regular infield positions, with Clarke, Leach, and Wilson in the outer field. With the exception of Byrne, who is slight 1y i'll, all the players are fit for the pennant race.
 Manager. Hugh Jennings has indi- cated that the batting order for De- troit in Thursdays opening game will be last years lineup without a change. Crawford however, is having trouble with a sprained ankle and may pos sibly have to yield the center posi- tion to D. Jones. Mullin is expected to pitch. Joss and Clarke arc sched- uled to form the battery for the vis- itors. with Lajoie deserting his old station of second base and playing at first Some doubt is expressed as to whether Flick or Lord will play right field for Cleveland for the opening game in Cleveland next Thursday.

DAY CAMP
For Tuberculosis Patients to Be Open-
 ed in New Haven.

For Tuberculosis Patients to Be Open
 ed in New Haven.
 Announcement has been made of the intention of the Visiting Nurses asso- ciation to install day camp for tuber- culosis patients at the former county home on Shelton avenue. It is planned to open the camp on May l and to run it for a limited number of patients during the summer months.
 The great object of this project is to provide place to which patients may go during the day for open air treat ment without taking them far from their homes. It will be run somewhat on the same plan, although on a much smaller scale, as the Gaylord farm at Wallingtord
 The site for the proposed camp is very suitable for such a purpose. The property covers an entire block and is one of the Qufetest sections of the city. There are no disturbing elements near the site, it being situated in the heart of . residential section.
 Part of the necessary funds are as- eured and for the rest of the funds and for the equipment the association will trust to the generos1ty of the many friends who have made the increase of the visiting nurse work possibie.-New Haven Palladiv

coaches decided this spring to go out and try to win the intercollegiate cham piOnsl1ip on the base lines.
 The varsity candidates were taken to the gymnasium and told to learn how to slide. Men who went into the base in a. heap were coached to offer a smaller target to the baseman and to throw the body away from /the guardian.
 The object sought by the coaches is to give the baseman the smallest pos sible mark to put the ball upon, and they are firm in their belief that many a game will be won in this manner this season.
