ATHLETES
ARE SCARCE

You can get some idea OF how much
the Cubs are going TO strengthen"
when you consider some of the talent
now being boosted by Chicago sport
writer's as additions to the family OF
Chance for 1911.
Among those mentioned for short
stop, II Joe Tinker moves over to
third, is Phil Cooney, late OF Spokane,
Wash. Cooney went south with the
Maps second squad last spring and
was very weak hitter against minor
league pitchers. He took a 30-days'
trip and ii was decided at the end of
that time that he would not do. There
fore, he went to Baltimore, piled up
errors and was shipped back to the
coast
. Cooney was a good fieIder-he
didn't try I'm Baltimore-but he failed
to hit. He is a fast man on the bases,
and that lets him out Taking Coon
ey as an average of the strength"
that will benefit the Cubs in 1911, the
fan can get some idea OF the difficulty
OF securing new baseball talent.
Just where the Cubs will improve
next season is not apparent. Getting
ball players is half knowledge and the
other half luck, with the odds all in
favor OF luck.

there isn't anything SO elevating about
fighting as TO involve much honor or

for other auto racers to steer clear OF

KICK COST
MUCH COIN

Lefty" Russell who was purchased
by Philadelphia from Baltimore for
the reported price OF $4,000, made a
costly mistake when he kicked over
the traces because the salary offered
him did not suit. AS result OF his
stand against the amount Connie Mack
thought he was worth, the young
pitcher did not share I'm the division
or the worlds series receipts, which
amounted to over $4,000 per man.
Russelfs end OF the money would
have amounted To considerably more
than the difference i'm what he want
ed In salary and what Mack offered.
But the young pitcher was too short.

Ing the team would result In. and he
must be both sadder and wiser now
than he was month ago.
Russell pitched one game for the
Athletics, winning II easily from Bos-
ton. II Is understood that after the
game he made salary demands which
Mack would Not listen TO. lie then
left the team, and as result did not
share In the worlds series money.
All the other members of the team
shared alike in the prize money. Even
Derrick, a recruit picked up in the
south, who Is far from ready for big
company, got just as much money as
did Eddie Collins out of the series, so
that ii is easily to be seen that Rus
sell overlooked chance TO fatten his
bank account when he refused to ac-
cept the salary Mack offered him.

sath low on New York poIitios.

The statement recently made by
Seth Low Of New York that the repub-
lican politicians in Athe Empire state
must stop fighting Governor Hughes
in his effort to put the rascals out of
office and put honest men in their
The attitude of the New York execu-
tive has been admittedly antagonistic
to the so-called state bosses and has,
as a consequence, been the target of
vigorous opposition. None Of them
seems to realize the fact, indicated by
the overwhelming majority at the
last election, that Governor Hughes
holds the confidence OF the republi-
cans and many democrats of the state
and that the fight being made on him
Is apt to be a repetition Of the foolish
fight made to prevent his renomina-
ton two years ago. 2
The situation is summed up very
oomprehensively by Mr.. Low when he
says that "the Woodruff, odell and
ONhCA hOSNAAO SohAP9 WniCn are COullu-
ually obstructing the efforts OF Gov
ernor Hughes are combating the only
available man in New York republi-
canism who completely fills the eye
Of the voter. He stands for what is
best in politics in the state" He fur
Their intimates that unless the leaders
realize this soon and stand aside they
will be sidetracked and may seriously
damage the party as thaN go.
Although this summary OF the re-
publican situation in New York is
somewhat unsparing. II is plain that
the republican organi2ation in New
York will have to adIust4tself to new
conditions II 1t is to command the con.
tinued support of the votefss THE
old idea is Dead" says Mr.. low, and

support OF the man who embOdies the
spirit of the times and help him bring
about q thorough house cleaning in
