DETROIT TIGERS
WILL PLAY BALL
TEAM TO GET BACK IN FIELD
WHILE coBe's SUSPENSION
is INVESTIGATED.

Philadelphia, May 20-The baseball
strike inaugurated by the Detroit team
of the American league last Satur-
day, came to an end at 3.35 p. m. to-
day when President Navin of the club
announced that the team would play
in Washington tomorrow without the
services of Ty Cobb, who still stands
tor in New York last week Presi-
dent Navin informed the players that
he would do his utmost to have the
suspension of Cobb lifted at the earl
lest moment and that he would take
care of all fines inflicted upon the
players for their strike.
The players have consented to re-
turn on this promise, because they
feel that Mr.. Navin was the innocent
sufferer in this extraordinary affair.
The players say they desire it dis
tinctly understood that the principle
involved upon which they struck will
be taken up and fought to a finish.
What Players Want.
The players announced in the pres
ence OF Mr.. Navin that hereafter if
they can have it, an investigation
shall be. made before a player is sus-
pended.
Mr.. Navin promised the players and
announced it, in the presence of the
newspaper men that he would take
up with the American league the
question of protection of the players
against. the unsportsmanlike conduct
on the part of spectators.
The players say that this action
was not taken as a result of anything
Ban Johnson has done; that their
fight against what they termed the
arrogance of the American league
president is still on.
Cobb Requested Action.
Ty Cobb, the suspended cen
terfelder of the Detroit team over
whom the players struck, this after
noon appealed to the strikers to re-
turn to the game tomorrow without
him. This followed a similar appeal
from President Navin of the Detroit
club for the men to stand by him.
Mr.. Navin told them they were still
members of the Detroit team and
that they had not jeopardized their
positions
In an interview President Johnson
said that at their meeting this morn
ing, he told Mr.. Navin emphatically
that he must send Cobb home, as he
would not be reinstated until the
matter is thoroughly threshed out.
The players must submit to pun
ishment, l told him. This will prob
ably take the form of fine. I liked
the attitude of Navin, who was very
firm and expressed himself strongly
regarding the strike"
After a conference between Presi-
dent Navin and strikers Of the De-
troit American league club, this aft
ernoon, it was announced that Navin
had told his Tigers that President
Johnson would not reinstate Ty out
of this time.

YOUNG VIRGINIAN TELLS WAR
DEN HE WILL NOT BREAK
DOWN AT FINAL SUMMONS.
Relatives Will Not Visit Him in the
Prison Before Execution, Which
Took Place During Early Hours of
This Morning.

Boston, May 20.-A desire that the
last hour of his earthly existence
might come speedily, apparently, was
the dominating thought in the mind
of Clarence V. T. Richeson as he
arose from his prison bed today The
young Virginian who shortly after
midnight tonight will probably pay
his penalty for the murder of Avis
Linnell, has become reconciled TO hrs
fate and courageously faces the fu-
ture.
Il will be ready when you want
me, warden" he said to Gen. Bridges
late last night when that official paid
him brief visit, and he added, do
not worry, l shall not break down"
Bore Up Well Sunday.
Richeson bore up we'll through his
last Sunday on earth He even was
cheerful as he sang hymns with the
chaplain until late hour last night.
Then he would read from the Psalms.
His exposition of the lessons were
described by the chaplain as eIo-
quent and learned.
1t was not until daylight this morn
ing that Richeson fell into a ftful
sleep
Realizing that his hours were few
in number, the condemned man 0e-
clared he did not want to sleep. 'tI
have so little time to live and have
so much to say that I want to talk,
talk, talk he said.
No Relatives See Him.
No relative of the former minister
will console him in his last hours or
pay him farewell visit. His aged
father in Virginia is too feeble to
stand the journey and the strain.
His sister in New York state does
not wish to have her last thought of
her trother associated with a death
cell. His brother, Douglas Richeson,
of Chicago, although in the city to-
day, declared last night that he would
not go to the prison today but would
i remain until after the execution to at
tend to the disposition of the re-
mains.

sci, w. A. Morse, probably will ac-

Republican Managers of Candi-

SKIRMISHES ARE ON TO-DAY
National Committeeman Will Drift II
About Tuesday to Take Up Con-

Are to Be Open.

Chicago, June 3.-Chicago is now the
storm centre of the nation.
Presidential nomination managers
packed their papers and personal be-
lodgings Saturday, closing headquarters
in Washington, to centre their batteries
in this city for the big Republican show,
and other prominent politicians are al
ready on the ground. The preliminary
skirmishes for control OF the Republican
national convention on June is will be
staged in earnest here, starting to-day.
William b. Mckinley, director general
of the Taft campaign committee, ar
rived here yesterday to take up the
fight at the Congress hotel headquar-
ters, which are ready for the presidents
champions. The Roosevelt generals are
to follow to-day Senator Dixon of
Montana, the Roosevelt chief in the cam
paign field, is TO come on fresh from an
interview with Col. Roosevelt. The
Roosevelt Washington headquarters also
are to be transferred to the Congress
hotel
Republican national committeeman
will begin to drift in here about Tues
day to make ready for the hearing OF
the 210 odd contests to be decided in
making up the temporary roll of the
convention. This is bitter and all
in portant fight, as many believe con-
~ 20 in ba n
tested seat decisions Lawyers with
briefs bearing on the merits of the con-
tests are coming to argue before the
national committee, which will sit as a
judicial body
Taft managers are confident as ever
that Col. Roosevelt will appear on the
scene to direct his fight personally.
They say his denials have become weak
er as the time for action arrives.
Senator La Toilette is coming here
and may put in an appearance next
week He is to have headquarters in
the Grand Pacific hotel Senator Cum
mings, who like La Toilette, has
block of instructed delegates, has head
quarters now in the Rector building,
where the Cummins club is camped.
La Toilette and Cummins are hoping
for deadlock and figuring on the pos
sibilit.y OF filling in as deadlock break
ers say the politicians.
Unless the program is changed, the
proceedings of the Republican national
committee on the contests over dele
gates before the committee will be open
w conducted, something not heretofore
the rule and now loudly called for by
the Roosevelt people. This information
comes from a member of the national
committee on the Taft side and the
decision is very wise one, as it will
permit the public to know Just what
happened in the committee, what were
tho merits of the contests, and will de-
prive Theodore Roosevelt entirely of OPP
portunity TO say that he was robbed
OF delegates by conspiracy of national
committeeman acting in secret.

Washington, June 3.-Representative
Underwood at the direction of Demo.
cratic members of the ways and means
committee, Saturday reintroduced the
cotton tariff revision bill which was
passed by the House and Senate at the
extra session of Congress and vetoed by
President Taft.
The Democrats claim the bill would
reduce the average ad valorem cotton
duties to 2706 per cent, as against an
ad valorem of AIS per cent. in l9ll and
1872 in 1912. The ways and means
committee will report the bill fayorably
to the House early this week.
The Democrats estimate that the reve-
nues from the bill during the first year
of it's operation would be about $l0,500,-
900, compared with Sl3,000,000 in 1910
and $l2,300,00O in 1911. In its behalf
they claim the cost of cotton clothing to
the consumers would be reduced by $780,

QUEBEC FEARS
TRAFFIC TO HUB
The Board of Trade There Will Meet
to Discuss the Grand Trunk
Plans

Quebec, Que, June 3.-The Board of
Trade will call special meeting to
consider report made Saturday by "A.
F Scott regarding the possibility that
trade will be diverted from Canadian
ports to Boston.
Mr.. Scott said it had come to his
knowledge that the Grand Trunk rail
way had obtained running rights over
the Transforming & Northern Ontario
railway from Cochrane, Ont, to North
Bay. From North Bay the Grand Trunk
controls a line to White River june
ton VT.
This, Mr.. Scott said, would give Bos
ton an opportunity to receive the freight
traffic from the West over the Grand
Trunk Pacific which is expected by
Canada.
