Joe COhn Gets
 Pitcher Marvel

Joe Cohn has reached out for another youngster. This time the Spokane boss figures that he has another Wal ter Johnson. Owen Hedley, a young ster of l9 summers, who first saw the light in Sumas Washington, is the latest candidate for the honOrs Of a phenom in the league, says the Ia coma Tribune.
 Recently Hedley pitched a game against Bellingham and let the husky opponents down without a hit, and in- cidentally caused II batters to make quick round trips via the strikeout route. Not ball during the game was hit out of the infeld and never for a minute did the Bellingham bunch have chance to score.
 Hedley is right-handed pitcher with all kinds of smoke. He weighs over the lS0 mark and has size and weight enough to get away in any league in the country.
 Two of the Coast magnates made efforts to get the services of the Sumas pitcher, but Cohn beat his rivals and secured contract.
 Captain Ostdiek will watch the youngster for week or two and will then give him trial against one of the visiting clubs.

THE GOULD LINES
RESTORE THE RATE
Small Cotton shippers to Have Conn
preston In Transit Rights.

Washington, Aug. 25.-Freight tar
ifs filed with the Interstate Com
merce Commission by the Missouri
Pacific and the St. Louis. Iron Noun
tain and Southern railways, contain
ing provision that no less than 35
bales of cotton in one shipment could
be compressed in transit to the final
destination were suspended some
time ago by the commission. 1t was
held that the provision was detrimen-
tai to and discriminatory against the
small shipper of cotton.
The order of the commission was
vacated because the railways have fill
ed tariffs to become effective Septem-
Der 1, restoring the former status and
permitting small shippers to have
their cotton compressed in transit.

South, calling a meeting for Montgom-
cry Sept ). All commissioners are
requested to attend this meeting and
to bring with them all the informa-
ton they can secure on the 1911 crop
condition. The demand for the meet
ing is to secure a correct estimate of
the cotton crop. The commissioners
of the different states are of the opin-
ion that the estimate Of the govern
ment is far too high, and TO prove this,
each commissioner will take with him
to the convention all the reliable stat
istics they can obtain in their home
states.
