JENNINGS LIKES
HIS YOUNGSTERS
DETROIT MANAGER WELL PLEAS
ED WITH SHOWING MADE
BY YANNleANs so FAR
THIS YEAR.

Monroe. La, March 9.-Manager
Jennings Is well pleased with the
squad of youngsters that he brought
south with him. OF the colt pitchers
Lively, left handler, and Covington,
a right handler have rounded into
form quicker than the others. At
present these two colts are showing
the best although pug" Cavet is ap-
parently coming fast.
stroud, who was with the club last
year. is in fine condition and he ex-
tends himself now without trouble.
Peasley, Smith and Mitchell have not
shown anything as yet, but there is
plenty of time for these pitchers to
turn out something.
Little Wurli. the Saginaw inheldcr,
looks especially good to Jennings just
now, and il is not n good bet that the
little fellow will not make good this
year He handles ground balls very
nicely, is fast on his feet and a good
hitter, Schaller. the outfielder from
the Springfield club of the Three l.
league. also looks good.
Schaller is still suffering from a bad
| ly sprained leg and he has not beer
able to do any fast practice work. His
leg is gradually strengthening, how
ever, and he is doing better worl
every day. He has plenty of conf
dence in himself despite the fact tina

chic" Lathers. the Detroit boy
shows Improvement Lathers' only
drawback is the stiffness in his legs
If he can overcome this by getting {
little springiness i'm his pins there is M
doubt but that he will make good
Jennings says he sees an improvement
in Lathers all round this spring.
Joe Casey, the cocky little catcher
is lettering his work with the stick
Casey is a fine catcher and his onl,
failing last year was his inability t
hit. Henry Beckendorf expects To gea
up his speed by taking off Is pound
of weight.
Del Drake is taking baseball yer,
seriously this spring. This is Drake
third trip south with the Tigers an
II would not be a surprise to see hin
connect this time.
While 1t is too early in the seaso
to draw line on any Of the players
the first week of practice has give
Manager jennings opportunity I
make some important observations
So far there is apparently nothing t
choose between the work of Gaine
and Ness.
At present the big squad has
large hospital list. Ness is nursing

and Lively has a sore elbow. Wester

place and he will be out of the gam
for the balance of the season. Jen

his leg in n plaster cast for sewers
weeks.
Manager Jennings is having slid
made at the grounds, where the play
ers will practice sliding bases.

MINNY LEAGUE MEETING.

winona. Mimi, March 9.-The base
ball situation in the Minny league
has developed into one of anxiety on
the part Of the eight cities which make
up the circuit. The negotiations
launched by Brandon and Winnipeg
looking to the purchase of two fran
chises has led to the general belief
throughout the league that the circuit
will undergo change before the open
ing of the season. For that reason the
eyes of all the fans have been directed
toward Rochester where the schedule
meeting will be held on March IA.

Ray Stannard Baker has practically
prepared his series of articles on ha-

Alexander Hume Ford, his old asso-

for photographs of certain of the lead

palatial homes of the sugar planters
and plantation views.
Baker states that he took back a
very large collection of photographs
for the articles he has prepared, but
finds that he needs a number of spe-
cial pictures, as the articles are loom

CHICAGO, July 19.-Revelation by
State Fire Marshal C. j. Doyle of a
gigantic, country wide firebug con-
spiracy-the greatest the world has
ever seen and rivalling in the network
of it's plot the most elaborate of
Arabian Nights tales astounded
members of the Chicago Association
of Commerce today at their weekly
luncheon. With it's head in Kansas
City, one arm in Chicago and it's ten
tacles of destruction defying the law
in more than a dozen large cities OF
the country, the speaker declared the
state fire marshals of at least four
different states have combined to
wipe out the closely banded gang OF
fifteen criminals who are directing
it's operations.
The speakers words had a peculiar
timeliness, coming as they did, so
soon after the recent disclosures of a
gang of incendiaries in Chicago.
Fire MarshaIs Unite.
The country is facing one of the
most gigantic, organized arson con
spiracies that the world has ever
seen," declared the speaker. Il am
here to tell you that the state fire
marshal department of Illinois has
united with the state fire marshals
of three other states-Kentucky, Ten
nessee and Ohio-to wipe out the
band of fifteen men at its head. The
plot that exists and extends all over
the country is the most malicious and
criminal venture that has even been
revealed. In it's qualifications it rivals
the most thrilling of fiction tales.
"One arm of the monster conspir-
acy that has continued to ravage on
its fiery trail extends right into your
own city. The head of the conspiracy
is in Kansas City from which city the
operations of the whole gang the
directed.
Extends to Many Cities.
"Tentacles of the fiendish octopus
have extended, as the daring of those
behind the plot has grown, into a
dozen cities. They have been found
at work in Bloomington, Springfield,
Pittsburg, Cleveland, New York, Buff
falo, st. Louis and other big cities
Two men of the gang have been
convicted and are now in Jail in a
southern city. The other fifteen will
be behind the bars if the state fire
