HUGH JENNINGS SIGNS
CONTRACT AS TIGER
MANAGER FOR TWO YEARS
Salary and Other Emoluments
Same as in the Past
Year
TO KILL ALL RUMORS
Hughes Signature Puts at Rest
Many Disturbing Rumors
About His Going
% KILL ALL RUMORS

Manager Hugh jennings, Wednes-
day morning. signed q contract with
the Detroit Baseball club for two
years. which assures the Tigers that
he will be their leader In 1913 and
1914.
The contract is In all essentials the
same as has kept Hughie with the
Tigers the past year. The salary and
other emoluments are the same as
this year, which means that Mr.. Jen-
nings gets well over five figures In
yearly compensation.
The signing OF the contract was
done at this time TO put at rest the
innumerable rumors that have been
floating around all year to the effect
that Jennings was to leave the IL
gers. Nearly every team from the
Red Sox to the Browns have claimed
him for next year. There have even
been statements that Hughie was TO
manage a minor league club next
year.
I'VE thought" said President Nav
In. this morning, that the best way
10 put q Quietus to all these rumors
about Mr.. Jennings going was TO
have a signed contract announced.
We think that that ought to emo the
wild stories, even IL our positive De
malls haven't"
Despite the Tigers poor showing
this year, the signing OF Manager
jennings for two years longer VIII De
hailed with delight by Detroit rams
with whom Hughie is ever popular

JOHNSON OPPOSING
LIGHTING PROJECT
Says Cluster Lamps Should
Not Be Installed for
Two Years.

There is still hopes Of the cluster
lighting system being adopted in Rich
mond. Yesterday afternoon the COM
mittee from the Y. NJ. B. c. met with
the Board Of Public Works and after
some discussion the Mayor announced
that he would take the matter again
under advisement and let the commit
tee know his decision within ten days.
The committee presented figures COM
piled by Supt. Johnson of the Light
Plant showing that it would only cost
the City about $1,000 per month &c
light Main street with the cluster light
ing system. The Mayor said that he
thought the cost would be considera-
BILE more than the figures named. He
argued that the light plant was max
ing good money now but it would need
the money to take care of the improve
ments contemplated in the next two
years. William H. Turner Of kokomo,
who recently purchased building on
Main street. was present and told the
board that Richmond would be behind
was not adopted He, as property
owner, greatly favored the project.
The committee has asked the Rich
mond Light, Heat and Power Com
pany to make the committee an esti-
mate as to what would be their charge
to install and equip the lamps. Mr..
Wharton of the company stated that
they had installed one system in many
cities and that they would be glad to
put in the system here. They will
make an estimate on the work and sub
nit it to the committee within a few
days.
Nimrod johnson, superintendent of
the Municipal Light Plant, said last
night to a representative of the Palla-
dunn that the lights would not be in
stalled IN Richmond and that he would
recommend to the board that the pro-
position be turned down. He also said
that he did not think the board would
allow the r. l.. H. & P. company to
use the sidewalks and the streets. He
said that he would fight any attempt
to have the lights installed in Rich
mond within two years.
The committee of the Y. NJ. B. c. is
determined to get the matter settled
one way or the other and will not give
up until everything possible has been
done to secure the lights.
