BIG SHOW STARS
GET STALE SOON
Class of Managers Will Wake
Up to This Fact Some
I Day s.

some day the class A leaguers are go
ing to wake up and find that they have
been pursuing the wrong system in build
ing up their ball clubs. For the last few
years they have relied upon big league
discards to a great extent rather than
nick up youngsters from the bush leagues.
The result has been that when the
big league clubs look around in the sum-
mer time for recruits they pass up the
class A organizations and hunt around
among the minor leagues for talent. The
reason is that the large minor leagues
are loaded with the has-beens, players
Who have outlived their usefulness in the
7 Itop-notch circuits
IKEA the Eastern league roster, for in
stance, and It will be found that the real
stars are big league discards. Jack cronin,
who was a big Lacquer ten years ago. was
third in the list Of pitchers while others

Henley and Mallarkey, al OF whom served
several years in the majors.
In other positions were John CAMEL
Harry Arndt John Anderson, Walter
Woods, Dave Brain, courtenay, Ritchey
Grimshaw. Phil Lewis, Pattee, Sammy
Strang, Jack Dunn Jimmy casey Aeasei

Jake eGttman and Wyatt Lee.
The same is true of the American Asso
citation. only to greater degree. the eigh
clubs in the latter circuit being filled ul
with former big lcaguers.
The major leagues themselves hav
been responsible for this condition of af
fairs to a certain extent for by scouting
through the minor leagues so thorough
they have not left much for the class
leagues The passage Of the thirty-fiv
payer limit however should make It pos
sible for the big little leagues to intro
duce more young talent than they hav
for the last few years.

Popular Mechanics for April.

Popularity, in many instances,
has been a matter Of few days, a
few years, or, perhaps, several
decades. This has been true Of many
notable personages, Of amy number
of books and of not few periodi-
Gals. The trend Of civilization, es-
pecially in America, is to demand
the modern-the Hp-te=date, in ev-
erything with which people con-
Germ themselves, This explains the
early death of 50 many books and
magazines; the policy has been
founded on some narrow principle
that does not admit of change IN
conformity to the demand for
change For this reason, as much
as for any other, Popular Mechanics
promises to have a long and pros
porous life. The very nature of the
publication gives it an option on the
good things Of all, the ages to come,
and that good things will continue to
come the habitual reader Of the
magazines stands convinced.
In the last few months Popular
Mechanics has attained; the mature
stature Of $50 reading pages. In the
April number appear 268 articles
and 269 illustrations, covering in
sprightly and attractive fashion the
full range Of science and invention
as developed since the publication
Of the previous number. A note
worthy feature every month is H

the danger point had been passed.
It was said to be likely that the
managers committee, headed by W..
C. Nixon, general manager of the st.
Louis and San Francisco Railroad,
would invite W. S. Carter, president
of the Brotherhood Of Locomotive
Firenien and Enginemen, and his
committee to another joint confer
ence. The Brotherhood has taken
the position that unless all tine
questions in dispute are submitted
to arbitration under the Erdman
Act, a strike on all the systems be-
tween Chicago and the Pacific coast
would be resorted to. The railroads
TODAY reiterated their assertion that
thev would stand "pat" on refus-
inc to submit to arbitration any
thing but the wage demand.
"We know a strike will not be

of the game is over. 1t is now only

Strike Postponed.

Chicago, ILL.,, March l5.-Danger
of an immediate strike of $4,000 To-
:comotive fremen on Western rail-
roads, and the contingent throwing
out Of employment Of more than
125,00O other employees, was avert
ed to-day through the acceptance OF
mediation from the Federal author
tiles at Washington. At the request
Of the general managers Of the
forty-seven Westerns railroads in
volved, Chairman Martin A. Knapp,
of the Interstate commerce COM
mission, and Commissioner of Labor
C. P. Neill telegraphed an offer OF
Federal mediation to the union Off
GERS. This offer was accepted. W.
S. Carter, president of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and
Enginemen, stipulating that action
must begin without delay.
The appeal to Washington was ta'
ken as an eleventh hour move to
! prevent a walkout, (which, it was de-
clared, threatened the greatest rail
road strike since that of 1894. Thir-
ty-seven members of the Western
Federation board Of the Brother
hood last midnight formally voted
for a strike.
The hour for striking had been
set for next Monday morning, and
the members were prepared to start
for their homes to put the strike
into action, when the mediation
steps were taken.
The mediators will come to Chica-
go, and, according to Mr.. Carter,
will not arbitrate the questions in
dispute, but will determine what
shall be arbitratea. The questions
involve wages, which both sides had
agreed to arbitrate, and two other
technical points; involving premo-
tion and representation in the tn4
ion: These latter subjects, the
Brotherhood contends, must be ar
'bitrateA, but the railroads assert
they cannot be arbitrated, because
they relate to internal union dis
putes.
''If the mediation falls through
the strike will 60 right ON as plan
ned," said Mr.. Carter tonight.
In a statement given out tonight
the general managers said:
"All prospects Of a strike are
over. There Will be none. Settle
ment of the whole controversy by
mediation and arbitration is as
sured.'
