Durbrow are representing the Hartman lines and F. w. Kemp. w q. Barnwell and r. P. Hastings the Santa Fe. It is considered doubtful if the commission will make an order in cases affecting Arizona local rates since the territory will soon become a state and will have power to fix Its own rates. At the hearing today Lane inquired of the prospects of immedi- ate statehood. Jones replied that he
 
 will be issued about the middle of January.
 Does it provide for a railroad com mission?" asked Lane.
 He was answered in the affirmative and said he would not promise a rul- ing. not wishing to tfansgress on the states rights. A r. McCaleb testI- fled he Is unable to get a rate on all falfa that will enable him to com pete with mills in. other states. He said the mills in the middle west have rates of $5.70 a ton to Kansas city and New York and that he is unable to get any rate. His mill at Phoenix was burned since he started for the hear ing but it will be rebuilt if he gets a rate. Lane said: This matter should be adjusted between railroads and the shipper. If he rebuilds he should bt assured a square deal"
 Louis Melczer, a wholesale liquor dealer testified that Phoenix pays 8; cents on Los Angeles shipments. while the same shipments to New York anC Chicago cost only S1.05. GOsney tes- tified that Los Angeles buyers are un- able to purchase Arizona sheep anC wool except when there is a shortage elsewhere owing to excessive" rates w. IT. Avery, buyer for q local pack ing firm, testified he returned thi! morning from q trip to Utah to buy wethers. He said the cattle rate iron Gilroy, 400 miles north of Los Ange- les. is $70 for a 36- foot cor and S126.S! | from Phoenix, which is only slightly farther.

|MACK'S INFIELD SUCCEEDS
CUBS FOUR AS GREATEST
Collins, Baker and Barry Are Instructive
Players and Rarely Make Mis-
takes on Grounders.

PHILADELPHIA. June s.-The Athletic
infield-Harry Davis. Eddie Collins, Jack
Barry and Frank Baker-is the greatest
infield in base ball, succeeding the wonder
full Cub machine of Chance, Evers, Tin
ker and Steinfeldt The old Cub quartet
has been broken up; Evers no longer
plays regularly and Stenfeldt was re-
leased. but it is debatable If the Cub four
in it's palmy days was any better than
the Athletic quartet Chance always was
and still is a better first baseman than
Harry Davis, but man for man the Ath-
letics excel IN the other positions.
The old Cub infield was the greatest
since Hughey Jennings and John McC;raw
starred with the Baltimore Orioles. The
Baltimore infield was the greatest up to
it's time, then came the Cubs and now
the Athletics
Where and how does the Athletic in
field surpass all others Of the American
and National leagues?
The answer: There are no three infield-
ural ability with base ball intelligence as
do Collins, Barry and Baker.
These three players go through game
after game without playing single ball
on the wrong bound, and they are fast
and have good arms.
There never was an infield trio that
played ball that bounds, or hops and
arasscutters better than Collins, Barry
and Baker. and 1t is doubtful If any three
players on one team ever played these
balls as we'll.
Evening star., 1911-06-08

Collins and Barry gauge a ball that
hops to them better than any other
pair of infielders at second base. Evers
and Tinker at their best may have
equaled Collins and Barry. but equaled
is the best the Cub pair ever did Col
Inns nor Barry misjudges the speed OF
length of bound once out of fifty times
enough to bother in throwing the ball
They get every ball that 'hops" on the
right 'hop," which is at the right height
to make the play safe and to be ready to
throw the instant after the ball lands in
their hands.
Baker cannot play the right "hop'' as
Collins and Barry do because he has
neither room nor time at third base tc
come in or go back on the ball, but he
handles less half hops than any Other
third baseman. 4 half hop is a short
bound.
Baker is playing better game a,
third this season than Harry Lord, and
he has the White Sox star faded as an
.all-around playen Lord is clever in spots
while Baker is good all the time. Lore
is playing deeper than Baker, and he
seems afraid of the new lively ball
Connie Mack says Collins did not have
to be taught to play ground ball right
and Mack says Barry learned in a few
weeks.
Connie claims Collins is the creates
instructive player of his time or any
other time. From the first Collins die
the right thing at the right time
'If 1t weren't that l might appear
greedy I'd name Barry and Baker as the
next greatest instructive players" sait

BY J. ED GRILLo.

In his efforts to rebuild the local team
Jim McAleer will have to exercise every
caution. 1t is easy enough to rid the
team OF many Of its present members,
but 1t would be foolhardy to take such
course without being absolutely posi-
tive that the players secured to I'LL the
places of those to be let 90 are as good
or better. There are several positions
on the local team we'll taken care OF
and the players filling them would be
hundred per cent better II the COM
bination could be made a winning one
The kind Of players that McAleer wants
are youngsters of ability who give prom
ise of developing. It Is but natural that
while these youngsters are being taught
the game many battles will be lost but
there can be no complaint on this score

which will win a respectable position In

one way to find out whether player

that is to try him in the championship

Of instances where players who looked
like wonders in the small leagues have
failed when they were given q chance IN

But no changes should be made which
