BALTIMORE. Md, April 15-willian
Red) Walker, one of Canada's bes
known turfmen. is the latest arrival al
Pimlico. The Canuck. who races his
own thoroughbreds. came in yesterday
direct from the farm near Toronto, where
he had been living the simple life during
the winter. Walker brought along eight
horses, some of which will surely be
heard from during the coming spring
meeting Of the Maryland Jockey Club
1t had been the original intention of the
Canadian horsemen to have opened the
season at Jamestown, but the members
Of his string were not quite ready to
ra.ce, so he determined to come here and
give them some good, hard props before
sending them to the post.
Walker has been a regular at the Hill
top course for several years, except last
fall. when he shipped to Laurel. He is
known to all the patrons of racing in
this city, who will remember when he put

With conditions equal to those of last

, Griffith realizes that he is in bad need
OF farm at which the young players
who are not ripe could be developed.
Furthermore, he was sure that with sun
day ball Atlantic City would prove a
splendid financial Investment.
When the Nationals reached the Somer-
set Hotel the Boston Americans were
also stopping there, and naturally there
was lot of tanning INDUCED in.
The Red Sox left for Philadelphia in
the evening, and later in the day the
Pnlladelphia Nationals came into the
hotel. They are to play the Brooklyns

That Boston team will need q lot OF

on nrst base and hitting like f1end, one

the players say that Wagner is back in
his old form, so that the McAIeerites

shortstops in the league. With that in

! the country, Stahl needs only pitching
strength to make his team contender

pitchers, because Buck O'Brien, the SEN
sation of last fall, is sure to have a very
successful season.
The coming series between the Athletics
and the Bostons is apt to be a hummer,
and should the Red Sox make a good
showing there they are very apt to be
| hard to catch for while, for that team
of youngsters will have lot of conf

It is the opinion Of those familiar with
conditions that the Phillies, who have
been generally picked to have a grand

nant this season, will have hard time
finishing in the first division, for the
reason that neither Chalmers nor Alexan-
der is picked to pitch good ball this
year. The former is suffering with a
very lame arm. while Alexander, who
made such a remarkable record last, sea-
son. is said to be anything but a well man.
1t is. of course, needless to say that if

Kentucky derby was silenced by the an
nouncement of Manager NJ. J. Winn Of
the Louisville Racing Association yester-
day that this year the event. as in pre-
vious years. is asix-thousand-dollar guar
anteed stake. 5000 Of which goes to the
winner. He also added that 5000 will
be added to the derby in 1918. With the
entrance money added to the stake the
derby hereafter will be worth no less
than $4,000 Horsemen had expressed
concern over the event on account Of the
state racing commissions ruling. doing
away with guaranteed stakes.
In future fall meetings the four-mile en-
durance stakes will be feature. The
association will give 5000 additional

CLEVELAND, April 15-"No matter

just SO long will Jennings men remain

O'Leary played with Des Moines for

Detroit bought him in 1904, and he has
been with the Tigers since. He joined
them in Shreveport, La, in 1904.
Schaefer joined the league in the same
year that O'Leary entered, 1900. He was
with Kansas City "Schaef' played for
Colorado Springs in 1901; with the Cubs
in 1902; Milwaukee in 1903 and 1904. The

is the most uncertain proposition in the
sporting world. And this statement can
only be repeated.
Il am not figuring on a pennant for
Cleveland-now. What I am figuring on
is winning the immediate games. Win
the games in front of you. and do not
worry about the ones a month or two in
advance. Is my motto. If 1 can win the
games / am thinking about I will let a
pennant take care Of itself.
Detroit has evidently picked UP some
very promising ball players from the 1912
collection of recruits. This Witt is very
likely looking youngster. What 1 have
seen of him has been impressive. And the
same can be said of Louden.
Il watched Dubuc pitch against New
Orleans. and 1t wouldn't surprise me If
he became one of the most dependable
twirlers in the American League. He
has good sped and seems to possess base
ball knowledge. He is practically the
only one of the new pitchers I have seen
work for Detroit, but If he is a good
example Detroit will be heard from in

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. April 15.-About the time
that the Nationals return to their own
grounds, Manager Griffith will make the
final cut of talent Four or five of--the
players now drawing salary from the
Washington club will be sent to some
minor league for further development
Just which of the players are to suffer
this fate is not yet announced, but they
are understood to be Tom Long, Paul
er yet to be chosen.
It II absolutely settled that Joe Engel
will be carried. Griffith expects to make
a star man out of the St Mary College
pitcher in time, and he believes that there
is a better chance to accomplish this by
keeping Engel under his eye than by
sending him to some minor league. Just
what Boehling's fate will be has not been
decided. 1t is likely that he will be given
chance to show against some major
league team before his case is settled.
Boehling has made a splendid impression
with his manager and it is only a ques-
ton of whether he is ripe or needs fur
Their development.
Morgan and Cunningham are sure to be
retained as utility infielders, while Shanks
and Clarence Walker will hold a similar
relation toward the outfield. Griffith pro-
poses to carry big squad Of pitchers. and
barring Guy Johnson and Musser it is not
unlikely that all the others will be carried
through the season.
Knowing that Quinn has ever been a
stumbling block for the Nationals, Man.
ager Wolverton will most likely work him
against Walter Johnson in the game to-
day.
Manager Hugh Duffy of the Milwaukee
team has come through with an offer of
81 coo for Kid Elberfeld, which Griffith
has accepted. There is, however, no as
surance that Elberfeld will report to the
Brewers, but so far as Griffith is con-
cerned nothing further will be done in
the matter.
Griffith fell down on a carefully plan
ned scheme by which he intended to
make Atlantic City a farm for the Ma
tionals. For several weeks he has had
negotiations with the Tri-State League
people and the owner of the club at At
lantic City. The scheme was to have the
Reading franchise transferred to that
place and the Washington club was to
have financial interest In the under
