Big League Berth Is Predicted Sure for
Billy Zimmerman, Tigers Great OufieLder
Form lie Has Shown in Train
ing Camp Has Been
Wonderful.
HITS THE BALL HARD AND RUNS
THE BASES LIKE A STREAK
lFrom a STAFF Correspondent.

PETERSBURG. Va, March 25.-
Here's a prediction. Paste it in your
hat! When August comes around see
how close it strikes the mark. It's
just this: Billy Zimmerman will be
picked up by big league club be-
fore the international League season
is over.
Jimmy is a wonder. He is really fas-
ter than Josh Devore, and more pol
ished fielder than Josh was when he
patrolled centre field for the Tigers
As a batter Zimmerman is candy and
cream. He cracks them on the nose
and on the line all the time. He has
not failed to hit the bali hard once
since he came here.
At this stage of the game it looks
as though Bill has only one requisite
lacking to make him as polished a
hitsmith as a fy-grabber--he is some-
what awkward at bunting. Zimmer-
man. when bunting, hits at the bali.
or rather shoves his bat at the sphere
after it reaches him, instead of hit
ting it in the front 1t is an awkward
way of bunting, as he loses sight of the
ball frequently, and If it has a hop
or curve misses it entirely.
He has been given a thorough drill
ing at 1t and has shown rapid improve
ment. He will bunt as we'll as the
average batter before the season opens.
That Zimmerman will lead the Tigers
in base stealing Is a safe prediction
right now. There is nothing about that
end of the game he doesn't know. and
fast-every player here swears he is
as speedy as Ty Cobb, though built on
different lines. He Is heady on the
bases and as elusive as a slippery eel.
Joe Phillips also shapes up as a prom
ising recruit, and SO does Curt Ber-
nard. The Iron Man" will have a
tough time deciding on his gardeners
when the time comes around. Billy
Zimmerman and Cy Seymour seem GER
tain of their jobs. so it's a fight be-
tween Phillips and Bernard for right
field.

day night. Trenton. by defeating
Reading on Saturday night are only
seven points behind the Kensington
quintet, and the winner Of tomorrow

past two attempts at walking like
distance from New York he should
come close to the present figures.

DENNINC and
GIBBONS AGAIN
Return Engagement OF These
Men Star Event of Week.
Kline Fights Wednesday.
NEW YORK. March Is.

AN1fs LOitAA, E1cA Sh HSs
The star pugilistic event of this week
in New York will be the meeting of
Mike Gibbons and Jack Denning to-
morrow night at the Fairmont A. c.
In the last bout, in which /Denning had
a. slight advantage, both men boxed
with injured right hands. and both
have declared that they will win in
decisive style this time. Since GIBBONS
has declared his intention of entering
the elimination trials for the middle
weight championship his performance
with Denning will be watched with
critical eye.
Carl Morris, whose aspirations as q
white hope received another setback
last week from Jim Stewart, is on his
way back to Oklahoma today for a
long rest.
Boxing experts here doubt whether
he viii attempt to return to the arena
here. The matchmakers Of the Ma
tional Sporting Club are said to have
withdrawn their offer for ten-round
bout between the Oklahoma giant and
AL Palzer.
At the Empire Club.
Manager Jess Mcmahon, of the EN-
pire A. c., New York, announced last
night that the advance sale of seats
for the 'triple-header'' scheduled for
the Empire, Club on Wednesday night
has broken all records up to date. Nc
Mahon also announced that the six
featherweights, Joe Coster, Eddie
O'Keefe, Johnny Dundee. Young Wag-
ner, Tommy Houck and Patsy Kline,
would be in the ring at $3.50 O'clock,
and that coin would then be tossed
to determine the pair to start the
show.
I'm all my experience as a promoter
of boxing bouts ! never knew of a
bigger boxing card, if do say so my
self" declared Mcmahon last night.
Mcmahon added that the winners of
Wednesdays bouts, with Tommy
O'Toole added, would fight it out on
April 10 at the Empire, and that the
two winners on that night would meet
two weeks later at the same club. The
final winner will challenge Johnny Kill

DISCUSS WILSON'S

Washington Very Much Inter-

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Presi-
dent-elect Wilson's statement that he
intends to have an open door" at the
White House, so far as it is possible.
aroused much discussion today as to
the extent to which a President can
admit the public to, his ordinary
working quarters. At present the
White House offices, adjoining the
executive mansion, are comparatively
accessible to all persons who are in
troduced as visitors at the regular re-
~ceiving hours; but ordinary visitors
are politely told by guards at the
door that the offices are for business
only"
President Cleveland came into Of
flee with the announced purpose of
transacting public business behind
glass DOORS but he found the ac-
commodations at the White, House
not well fitted for such arrange
ments. An hour or two is given now
by the President almost every day,
except in times of pressing business,
to shaking hands with visitors, and
President Taft and his predecessors
have maintained fairly free relations
with the public during reception
hours, except for the outer guard
that protects the executive against
undesirable persons.
Visitors to the President during
business hours now pass the scrutiny
of the ~doorkeeper and the Presidents

MADRID, Spain. Nov. 1S.-The
body of the ass~assinated Premier
Canalejas lay in state from an early
hour this morning on a catafalque
which had been erected in a tenn
porary chapel in the Chamber OF
Deputies. The body vas dressed In
diplomatic uniform. and beneath the
corners of the gray silk canopy COW
erlng the catafalque stood a mill
tary guard of honor, the men with
heads inclined on their arms which
rested on their reversed rifles.
A vast. silent crowd Of people
gathered both in and outside the
chamber to pay their last respects
to the dead statesman. The popula-
ton of the capital appears to be
deeply impressed by the crime. Work
has been almost entirely suspended,
and nearly every business house is
closed. while most of the houses in
the residential section are draped
with mourning decorations.
The Liberal cabinet will continue
to hold Office, under the temporary
presidency of Foreign Minister Mar
quis Manuel Garcia Prieto, at least
until the signature of the Moroccan
treaty with France, which should
have been completed today. Premier
Poincare, of France, however, tele-
graphed this morning to the Spanish
government to defer the matter UNI
til a more convenient date.
