SAYS CALUMET
MUST GO SOME
MARQUETTE NEWSPAPER MAN
ON VISIT HERE DISCUSSES
THE OUTLOOK FOR THE
BASEBALL SEASON.

"The Calumet baseball team will
the teams i'm the iron country" This
is the message brought to Calumet
yesterday by Oliver Hoyem, city edi-
tor of the Marquette Mining Journal
who is spending a few days with
friends and relatives in Laurium. THE
Marquette Ishpeming and Negaunee
teams have retained practically the
same line-ups they had last season and
are rounding into fine shape for the
season." continued Mr., Hoyem AL
though baseball is always uncertain,
all of the players on the three teams
I'm the iron country are of known abil
ity, and eliminating the possibility OF
accidents, each is certain to be pen
nant factor"
The ishpeming and Marquette teams
were to nave met yesterday in their
first practice game, according to Nj
Hoyem. and from now until the open
ing of the season, the players will be
kept hard at work
The fans of the iron country welcome
the new arrangement which makes in
tersectional games possible. They look
upon Calumet as n natural rival and
Judging from the interest manifested,
the season will be very successful fl
nancially. The opening date, May is,
is eagerly awaited by the fans, and Z
is possible that a large party Of Nc
gaunee supporters will accompany
their team to Calumet to witness the
first two games AS the NegauncC
team finished first in tho Iron Country
league last season. and the lineup has
been kept intact. the supporters of that
team look forward to annexing another
championship. Marquette and Ishpem
ing will have strong teams, however
and win be heard from ell through the
season.
While II is almost Impossible to COM
pare the chances of the Calumet team
with those of the iron country aggrc-
cations. those who know the game
there are of the opinion that Calumet
may be excelled in defense but is like
~ to prove fully as strong on offence
Although the claims OF the Calumet
fans. that their pitching stan excclls
may be justified. Marquette has an eX-
ceptionally strong pitcher in Miller and
the other teams are also strong in the
pitching department.

ENGINEERS FAVOR
QUITTING THEIR JOBS

NEW YORK, March 2s.-Warren S.
Stone, grand chief of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, predicted to-
dav that when the result of the strike
vote on the wage question is made pub
lie April 10 1t will be found that less
than $500 of the $4,000 engineers in
the brotherhood oppose strike.
"It is significant, said Mr.. Stone,
"that in none Of our conferences with
the eastern railroad representatives have
they once declared that our demands
are unjust. They do not cay we do not
need the increase; they say merely that
they cannot afford to grant it, because
they are not allowed increased freight
rates.
"'The interstate commerce commits.
sion stands in the way of any raise,
and as the commission represents the
public, it is really the public that is
the stumbling block. That is why
repeat that the public needs an object
lesson to convince them that the roads
are entitled to more pay for the freight
they carry. Freight rates are bound TO

SENATE SITUATION
WITHOUT PRECEDENT
Four New Men From Arizona
and New Mexico to Be
Assigned Seats.

PHOENIX, Ariz.. March 2S.--A situa-
ton which is believed to be without pre-
cedent will confront the United States
senate upon the arrival in Washington
next Monday OF the four newly elected
United States senators from Arizona and
New Mexico.
II Is believed here the parliament rians
OF the United States senate Will be called
upon to decide which of the two sets of
senators is to be given precedence In
the distribution OF long and short terms.
The first two senators sworn In will
draw lots for a four-year and a six-year
year and four-year term. The two
year term. in fact, will be less than one
year. as II will expire on March 3, 1913.
Senator's elect Marcus a. Smith and
Henry F. Ashurst, Democrats, left here
last night for Washington. Senator'S
elect Thomas X Catron and Albert B.
Fall, Republicans. are scheduled TO leave
Santa Fe, n. M. this morning for Wash
ington There will be little II any differ
ence In the time of their arrivals at the
capital.
1t is probably the first time in the his
tory of the United States that two sena-
tors from each OF two new states were
elected on the same day, for although the
senators from Arizona were chosen Tues
day. their election was not ratified by
joint session of the legislature until yes
terday, when both senators also were
elected In New Mexico. The credentials
of the two sets OF senators are dated
March 81. as the date OF election.
