BAN JOHNSON
OWNS STOCK
He IS THE MAN WHO PUT UP
THE MONEY FOR THE PuR-
CHASE OF THE BOSTON AMER
ICAN LEAGUE CLUB.

Boston, Sept. Sat- Is said that Ban
Johnson, president Of the American
League, is at present one Of the large
stockholders in the Boston American
League club, holding, II Is estimated,
nearly one-haH Of the club in HIS own
name, according to well-informed au-
thority, who Is In close touch with the
local owners
While It was generally supposed
that the price paid for a half interest
in the club by Messrs. McRoy and Mo-
Aleer was in the neighborhood OF
$4,000, 1t was stated today that the
figures were exactly $125, 900. 1t was
also stated by the same authority that
Johnson had bigger finger In the pie
than was at first announced.
AS matter Of fact. according to
the story, Johnson himself paid for
the interest in the club, with a check
for the entire amount McAleer is
interested to the extent of probably
not more than SIS, 900, and perhaps
less. McRoy's actual holdings were
not estimated, but II may be surmised
that he Is In the deal largely as a
personal representative of the John
son interests. McAleer, under this ar
rangement, may be president of the
club, but II he is, Il will not be as
one Of the really big stockholders.
Today's authority figured his hold
ings at about $4,000, which repre-
scented money raised on property In
Youngstown, Ohio, his home town.
Mercy, as treasurer and secretary,
and John ]. Taylor, as vice-president,
will give the various interests in
volved a representation on the board
Of control.
Johnson's investment in Boston
baseball can in no way be construed
as anything likely to prove q detr1-
ment to the game locally. II Is in
line with his endeavor to build up a
substantial circuit Of really fine ball
parks as well as strong clubs. He
has wanted Boston TO get into line
with Chicago and Philadelphia, and II
is undoubtedly due to his desire to
see the formost baseball city equipped
with an up-to-date ban plant that
has made this last move seem ad-
visable.
Johnson's policy Of control has never
laid him open to a charge Of fostering
the evils Of syndicate baseball and the
departure on his part cannot be taken
as an indication that he WIN favor
Boston any more strongly than any
other city on the circuit.

And he preserves good fellowship
among the players. For, be it known,
Harry Davis is one of the most popu-
lar men that ever welded a bat. This
service is one of the greatest that
could be rendered any team. Davis's
presence is one of the reasons why the
Athletics are as a happy family. Each
man helps the other In his work in

every time teammate does something

the table decorations of pink and white

The Austin Horror.

Second only to the Johnstown horror of
22 years ago is that which practically
wiped the thriving towns of Austin and
Costello, in Potter county, Off the map,
and destroyed between 100 and $50 human
lives. The lesson is a terrible one and
ought to effectuslly put a stop TO the
hazardous practice OF building big dams
on streams inhabited lower down. The
most rigid investigation should be made
OF this horror and the blame placed where
1t belongs. The fact that the people Of
Austin have for some time lived In dread
of just such calamity is evidence Of the
weakness of the structure that gave way
last Saturday afternoon. Let the investi-
cation be thorough and complete. The
people will be satisfied with nothing less.
The latest reports up to last night state
that 3S dead have been recovered at Aus
tin and poll of the population shows 40
others missing. This does not include
any strangers who may have been in the
town. Only two lives we're lost at Cos
tello, the residents being warned in time
to escape.
A dispatch from Harrisburg says; The
State Water Supply Commission will
meet here Thursday to outline the inves-
tigation into the breaking of the dam at
Austin, and 1t is probable that John Birk-
inbine, president of the commission, and
other members, will go to Austin to
make a personal inspection. Engineer
Farley Gsnnett will make an early re-
port. The investigation will probably
have direct bearing upon pplications for
authority to construct power plant dams,
and may also lead to an investigation
into the stability OF other dams. The
Austin dam was built before the COM
mission went into ONCE,
