Ohio Democrat CrltlcIsas Agri.
cultural Department.

Washington, April l3.--The admin.
iEtration of Secretary Wilson OF the
department. of agriculture was severe
ly criticised in the house OF represen'
tatiyes in 8 speech by Representative
Bathrick. Democrat. OF Ohio. Mr..
BAthrick asserted that Mr.. Wilson'S
management of the department has
been scandal and a disgrace"
Mr.. Bathrick's attack included the
charge Mr. Wilson had been tied to
the food dopers." He also said the
secretary had aided and abetted land
boomers in the exploitation OF the
Florida Everglades.
Like the pest OF Sinbad." Mr.. Bath
rick said. this old man sits astride
the shoulders OF the peoples rights;
weighing down justice. obstrncting
the operation of laws intended 10 pro.
tect the people and uncertain in his
course OF management of the expendi-
ture OF over $4,000 900 annually of
the peoples money, he shifts from one
decision TO another at the beck and
call Of the big interests OF the coun-
try"
Mr. Bathrick defended c. G. Elliott
and A. d. Moorehouse. whom Secre-
tary Wilson recently dismissed from
the service. The men were involved
in the Everglades controversy and
were recently indicted for technical
violations OF law. Mr. Bathriek said
this prosecution was contemplate"
The debate in the house was apro-
pos OF the postoffiee appropriation bill.

sissippi followed Mr. Bathrick.

TWO NEW LEADERs WHO ARE EXPECTED
TO MAKE GOOD.

TO MAKE GOOD.
great IL he had been backstop in
stead OF an inhelder, aud 50 on through
the whole list OF successful leaders.
The 1912 fans will watch the yicissi-
tudes OF seven teams under new lead
ers. The capacities IN Which these
men worked in 1911 and their new
charges are:
Manager, Clark Griffith, Washington
Americans; field captain. Harry Davis.
Cleveland Americans; umpire, Hank
O'Day, Cincinnati Nationals; first base.
man; Jake Stahl, Boston Americans;
third baseman. Harry Wolyerton, New
York Americans; outfielder. Jimmy
Callahan, Chicago Americans; catcher.
Johnny Killing, Boston Nationals.
or these Clark Griffith has had the
most extensive experience as man,
ager, although Stahl and Callahan also
have had big league managerial expe-
rience.
Grifith's material at Washington Is
not of the best except III Il few spots,
but it Is believed he may make bis
team a genuine contender for the lower
end of the first division.
Harry Davis will take charge of the
Cleveland Americans. fresh from his
lessons under Connie Mack. Davis
during his service as field captain OF
the Athletics proved himself capable
lieutenant. He undoubtedly will in
augurate Connie Mack's methods at
Cleveland in place OF the Stoeall meth
DDS used with such success last year.
Harry Wolverton has his work cut
out for him with the New York ianks.
He has an aggregation OF stellar ball
tossers, but so had Griffith. Elberfeld
aud never has New York had an Amer
lean league pennant Wolverton knows
the game from the inside out and last
year received valuable experience as a
minor league manager in the far west
Johnny Killing carries with him the
reputation OF being the greatest lin
side" player of any catcher In the
game in recent years. King has a
few stars and many poor players In
the roster of his club. In event that he
can mold winning combination and
give Boston a respectable position in
the National league race this year all
the credit must be given To King.
Hank O'Day. one OF the qualntest
characters that ever paraded a dia-
mond. Is one of the few umpires in the
history OF the game to become man
ayers. and his work with the Cincin-
natl Nationals will accordingly be
watched by fans throughout the coun
try with keenest interest. O'Day's
strength OF will rs an umpire may
manifest itself in any one of half n
dozen different plays in his new ca
paeity. His success or failure In his
new job will likely decide the pros
poets OF other holders OF the indicator
to acquire managerial jobs.

EASY FOR BRITISH CHAMPION.
Lawn Tennis Title Holder Need Not
Play .Throuah In Tourney.

Despite the change in the American
method OF conducting the tennis cham.
pionship tournament at Newport. the
British lawn tennis champion need not
play through.
The All England Lawn Tennis club
has so decided. Wilding. the present
champion, from Australia. brought the
matter to head by asking that he be
allowed to play through. English au-
thorlties still maintain that they cannot
decide whether it is an advantage or
a disadvantage for the title holder to
remain inactive until the challenge
round is reached and therefore see
no reason why an cid custom should
be violated.
