Mexicali, Mexico, April l0.-General
Stanley Williams, who was wounded on
Saturday. when his little force Of 80

an improyised hospital established by
the American troops at Calexico.

REASSURANCES FROM TAFT

Washington, April lO.--rhe Demo
Gratis will hold caucus to-day to decide
on their legislative procedure, 1t is be-
lcved that at this time they viii agree
on the precedence the Canadian reei-
procity bill will have in the legislation

make no wiser political move than by
passing the reciprocity bill at once in
the House putting responsibility for its
enactment and marring on the Republi-
can Senate. meantime addressing Them
selves to the tariff legislation and other
planks in their program.
Probably this would have been the
program of the Democrats if they had
not taken notice of the report that it
was the intention of the president to
avoid tariff legislation in advance of
any reports from the tariff board and
to prorogue Congress as soon as It had
passed the Canadian reciprocity bill. In.
huenced by these reports, the Democrats
began to consider a procedure in which
other legislation than the reciprocity
bin was given precedence, and, in fact,
this bill was in some quarters talked
of as offering an excellent hostage to
procure the enactment by the Senate
Of such tariff legislation as the House
might pass.
Of course President Taft never had
any such intention To proroguc Con-
gress in this fashion would be extra
ordinary. though perfectly constitutions

II has been pity that the report has
been allowed to go uncontradcted, even
though carrying improbRhlity on its
face. However Yesterday it was con

WHY YPRESENTDAY AYBALL PLAYERS
ARE BETTER THAN OLD-TIMERS

formerly nothing more than a man
placed on the bag to catch thrown balls
Many years ago the batter could call
for any kind Of ball that he wanted.
In other words, they pitched to a bat
ter's strength in those days, and now
they pitch to his weakness.
The department of the players is diff
ferent. In the old days the players did
not pay much attention to their physi-
cal well-being. Now they have to live
and care for themselves so as to hold
good in their respective positions.
The outfielders have a greater knowl-
edge of the individuality of batters.
They learn the direction in which GER
tain batters hit and shift their posi-
tions accordingly.
