The regular De- troit players went to the ball park but when they learned after short practice that Cobb would not be per- mitted to play, they returned to their hotel
 While the game was being played they discussed the situation and ev- cry one questioned said he felt that 'the suspension of Cobb was an out rage and they would stand together. !" The players expressed the best of feeling toward the owners of the De- Itroit cluh but were outspoken in their criticism of Mir. Johnson. They said that if the matter is not set tied they may go on barn storm ing trip"
 Connie Mack, manager of the Phil auetpfiia team, said tonight thai Dc troit had placed team in the field according to the rules, and there fore he played and won the game. He would not comment further.

 We made our move this after noon and the next move is up to President Johnson. l don't see that we can do anything until Johnson takes his move.
 The players say they will remain at the hotel as long as the team is scheduled to stay in this city.
 We have not jumped the Detroit club, nor the American league. We have merely exercised our right as citizen not to work under eondi- tions which were not satisfactory 10 us. We are trying to learn whether ball players have any rights which the league management is bound to respect" added Delehanty.

 Nearing a Close.

Springfield, O.. May fS- Confident that his appeal to the pride of Ohiu in an Ohio president have been oi some avail and that his chances of capturing this states delegation to the Republican national convention has improved greatly since he cross ed the Ohio river last Monday, Pres ident Taft tonight closed the weeks campaign with a speech here. Only one more day, Monday, will be de- voted by the president to this cam paign When he makes his last speech at Dayton Monday night, he win have travelled almost 5000 miles in Ohio, will have spoken in every congressional district in the state ani have visited 73 of it's SS counties.
 Ohio politicians who have talked with MT. Taft say that never in the state history has there been such campaign. The presidents feeling of confidence in the outcome was reflected in his manner. Although he used plain language about Col. Roosevelt and the Ohio bosses" al times. his old smile that has appear ed but seldom of late, was again in evidence.
 To the farmers the president talk. ed about certain reciprocity and about MT. Roosevelt's tariff revision proposals. He bluntiy asserted that Mir. Roosevelt had cnanegd his opin- ion in regard to reciprocity to get votes and charged that he was painting something to sell and Hol So nse. when he made p.biic-s ffis tariff proposals. The presidents opinion of MT, Roosevelt's tariff re- form ideas was confdentially set forth at Paulding. He said:
 Now MT Roosevelt has finally come to answering question on pro lection, something which he has avoided for years and years. He has now reached a discovery. He is in favor of that kind of protection that will produce a profit in busi- ness so that most of it goes through the office down into the envelope of the wage employe. That is a very good kind of protection if you can get 1t.
 He states the conclusion that he would like to reach without stating how he is going to bring it about. Now it is abslurd to say that yol can have protective tariff bill that in any way will divide the profit or the earnings in the business that protective tarif may develop. You cannot do it."
 At Lima late today an old sol- dler in the audience who sat up near the platform, rose every time the president asked a question and us uaiiy had an answer ready that yolc- ed his approval of Mr>Faft's admin istration. GO to it, old stocking, go ahead old boy was one of bis enthusiastic expressions.
