ports of continued friction. the beginning of

tain sonoTous pnotestants. as IL inevitable in
so large body, but n careful survey of the
situation and due discrimination between
those who are causble OF exertiag influence
and those who are not bear ouf the view
taken by The Tribune that the troubles OF
TIE last week have suhEided. that the same
men. insurgents as well as regulars, are in
control and that there is no occasion FOR
grave apprehension regarding the future.
II rs 70 be expected that when Mr.. Cannon
sees the comment Of Representative Norris

dinner OF saturday evening the Speakers
ire Viii know no hounds. On the other
hand. must be remembered that the

that II would not he dificult 20 take from
him the power of appointing the COM

caused 1T to Jump more. 1t is odd that
Young and Nichols who probably came
nearer pitching ''straight' balls than
any other pitchers ever did, were so sue
cessful and it proves that the batter
does not hit at the ball at all, but swings
his bat at spot where he expects the
ball to cross the plate. The success of
the fast ball lies in this, and in the fact
that is is coming so rapidly the batter
has no opportunity TO change the direc-
tion of his swing before the ball passes.
The curve pitchers are host. Every

of the sphere and the partial vacuum

and when he released thc ball his hand
was turned almost upside down. He
jcrkcd the hand downward and back

revolution that resulted in the impress
sion of great speed.
Mathewson achieved his "fadea way
by holding the ball exactly as Griffith

game. Tho Chicago White Sox had

Stricklett was pitching TO batters in
practice when he pitched ball which

straight line-yet slowly. The revo-
luton, which was the reverse Of the
natural twist, helped the ball to hold its
straight course, and it lost speed quickly
after exhaustlng the reverse revolution
and fell rapidly towards the ground at
point in front of the batter. The Sc
cret of his discovery, Radbourue I'M
parted to Clark Griffith, now manager Of
The Cincinnati club, and for years after
the passing of Radbourne. Griffith was
one of the premier pitchers of the coun-
try, holding practically a monopoly on
his slow ball and using it with wonder
full effect
But the ultimate and greatest devel-
opment of that slow ball was left for
Matbewson of New York, in whose
hands it became the most effective ball
ever used; the "fadeaway," which is
only development of the idea and the
style used by Radbourue and Griffith,
is ball which almost all the pitchers
in the country are trying with moro or
less success to initiate. Yet before
Mathewson learned the trick of pitching
his 'fader.' there was one who pitched
the same ball in even more wonderful

Springs know that the curve balls an
that altitude will curve hardly half as
far as at sea level.
Al Orth was student OF such con-
ditlons He was pitching for Philadel-
phia one hot day and was winning cas-
lily uD TO the seventh inning. The
Philadelphia National grounds are suf-
rounded by high walls and stands
and scarcely breath of wind enters
them. In the seventh inning Orth sud
denly lost control His "thumb ball -
kept breaking away from the plate, he
gave several bases on balls, and be-
fore New York was retired. the Giants
were within one run of a tie. Orth was
puzzled AS he started for the bench,
where the manager was ordering an
other pitcher TO warm up, he stopped,
looked around, wetted a finger, held 1T
in the air and grinned.
"Have those doors under the stand
closed and / III win this game, re-
marked Orth to the manager.
The doors were closed Orth regained
control and won without trouble.
The great exit doors under the stand
had been opened, preparatory to letting
the crowd dispcrse, and a half gale of
wind, blowing around the stands, was
driving Orth s underhand ball Of its
course.
In 1909 Mordcca Brown thoueht he
had discovered new curve, which he
executed by releasing the ball with a
sharp Jerk of the wrist, while his hand
was near his hip. He used it repeatedly
in one game, the ball breaking down
and in sharply ana faster than his
" "fadeaway" would do. He started TO
practice it the next day and it would
not work He persisted for days, then
ne discovered that, when the wind was
blowing from the southeast. moderately
hard, he could pitch the ball. The curve
was the result of the angle at which the
wind was striking the circular stands.
The science of baseball pitching can
not. all be known by one man, or by one
team as every pitcher has his own thco
ries, and tricks, but this will show there
is more to it than throwing ball sixty

was of balance, Just as he was for the
slow pitch.
The discovery of another kind OF slow
ball, and tho most successful pitched
ball ever used, arose from the fact that
to deceive the eye the ball must be
made 10 appear small. and that revolu-
ton al that, is necessary to deceive the
eve into the idea Of smallness and speed
when it is slow. ''Hoss'' Radbourne
working on that theory, began to devel-
op slow ball that revolves ranidly. II

revolves rapidly usually has great speed,
