Today's Probable Lineup
BY SENATOR"

Bobby Adler, who has been playine
third base with the local United States
League team, received a trial at the
Florida avenue park today, and failed to
make sufficient impression to entitle
his being signed by Manager Griffith
or the Nationals. The lad has been
clouting the outlaw twirlers to the far
corners, but his style didn't seem to
warrant his keeping 1t UP against the
big leaguers.
Manager Griffith told him, though,
that he would try to land him a place
with some minor league club, and Adler
Will continue to work out with the Ma
tionals until Thursday, when the local
american League team leaves on its
long trip through the East and West
Nothing has yet been heard by Grif-
nth concerning the cancellation of to-
morrows game with the Detroit Tigers.
and he doesn't expect to hear anything
until tomorrow.
No Charge for Game.
Tell the fans for me-" said Griffith
: today to the writer, that If Detroit
I does come here and tries to play with a
picked up aggregation just to save the
$1,000 fine, there will be no charge for
the game. That Is, each ticket will
carry rain check good for any other
game in the season. 1t isn't fair to
charge people for that kind of base
ball"
Griffith says that the sympathy Of
the baseball teams in the league is
bound to be with Ban johnson as
against the Detroit strikers.
The players are with Ty Cobb when
he demands protection from insult"
says Griffith. and so am l. They
should be protected. But when the
other Detroit players try to spread
the very forces that boosted their
salaries, the sympathy of the thinking
player is alienated from them.
"They can't pull that stuff on Ban
Johnson and get away with It, They
ought to know 1t, too. 1t would mean
the diruption Of the league, If not all
baseball. The Nationals certainly don't
believe in this strike idea at ALL"
Stovall Returns.
George Stovall, the former Cleveland
manager, now playing with the st.
Louis club. has returned from Phila-
delphia, but has little to say. He went
to the conference Of the players In
Philadelphia. but has little to say He
went to the conference of the players
In Philadelphia as a courtesy in return
for the stand OF the Tigers last sum-
mer when the Maps refused to play a
scheduled game on the day OF Addie
Joss funeral in Toledo. Captain Olson,
of the Cleveland club, was also there
for the same purpose.
.Stovall does not sympathize with the
strike of the Detroit players, but
doesn't care to discuss 1t, thinking the
trouble will work itself out in a day
or SO.
"Private John" Allen has been un-
conditionally released by the Lynch
burg club. of the Virginia League. He
would have been returned to the Ma
tfonals had Manager Griffith seen his
way to IISe him.

Roosevelt and the Negro

Leading newspapers OF the south
are at variance in their comments on
the progressive party's attitude to-
ward the southern negro as opposed TO
the negro in the north. Some OF the
editors bitterly assan an attitude that
places the northern negro above his
brother in the south, others see hope
in the stand; still others are await
ing results. Some editorial com
ments are as follows:
Shreveport, Ua) Times-The col
onel has fooled nobody in this part OF
the country His bid for southern sup
pert is about as cheap a piece OF dem
agogism as the country has witnessed
in 40 years.
Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser-It is
true that the policy OF imposing north
ern Ideas on southern states can no
longer be successful. and its aban-
Comment means less political friction
In the south between the two races. In
the south the thinking white man
knows that the third-term candidates
attempt 10 draw the line between the
northern negro and the southern ne
gro. because the northern negro is a
better citizen. is mere buncombe. The
only difference between the negro of
the north and the SOUTH is a differ.
