cYNIcs.
(By George Fitch. )

A cync is a man who is from
 Missouri, but can't be shown.
 Cynicism is the first step to- wards wisdom. All boys are cynics. They are too intelligent to believe anything their parents tell them. But some keep right lon being cynics for the rest of
 their lives.
 l After a man has become a chronic cynic, it is impossible for mankind to fool him with any prel tended virtues. The cynic is so wise that he sees through virtue as if il was a screen door. To the cynic piety is a parade, honesty is a bargaining for a higher price, decency is hypuc- ri>y, and philanthropy is high class advertising. George Wash ington, according to the rynic, told the truth because the cir cumStantial evidence was over Whelming. Benedict Arnold was the man who got first chance at British gold, and Abraham was looking for the 'colored vote when he freed the slaves. You cant fool the cynic with any of those old HfbIe stories, either. Tell him he story of the IoaVes and fishes, and he will smile knowingly and say that any mod ern woman can make thousand sandwiches for an afternoon re- ceptiGn out of loaf of bread and can of salmon.
 According to the cynic, reform is always the effect of the outs to get in, and heroism is generally recognized as good advertising. The goodness of woman depends upon the credulity of man and the honesty uf man upon the lack of opportunity. If a man has lheld office all his life and died penniless, the foolish world may be impressed, but the cynic only smiles and says that some men have to be bought. but that oth- CTS can be fooled into voting.
 The cynic doubts mother love. laughs at repentance and is the. only man who can see through unselfishness, and find the hog gish aim behind it. But the cyn- ic can always be fooled in one way. Tell the cynic that he is wiser than other men and he will not only believe you, but will fall down and worship you. That is why so many cynlcs are married to designing women, and come to terrible>ends.

Quinn Brings the Generator From Across the Bay.
 Start Tonight He Says

Superintendent Tom. Quinn, of the Alaska Water, Light X Telephone Company, started with crew of men shortly after midnight, Saturday, to bring the big generator from the Hes power house on the beach at Solo, mon gulch to the plant of the com pany on the Valdez dock.
 The big generator was brought across the bay last night by Captain Morrison on one of his lighters and the men worked all night trying to install the machine and hope to finish and have the power generator work ing early this evening.
 The company will surrender to a representative of Alfred B. Hes the plant on the beach which has been leased by the company for the past five years.
 As soon as possible the new power plant in Solomon basin will be used. The generator ordered early last spring and the pelton wheel, both of which were made to order, have not reached Valdez, although they were shipped from the factories month ago.
 The steam plant on the dock will be used until the water power can be harnessed, after which the company will have a larger plant than ever, with all the lates fixings.

NEW YORK LOSES FIRST HOME GAME
Poor Playing of Hghlanders Gives Senators to Victory Groom Pitches Fine Game-Nlanager Chance Pre- sented Tokens of Esteem-Athetcs Take Another From Champion Red Sox

New York, April 1.-The New ' York Aulericans opened their season here today under ideal weather conditions, but played poor ball and lost to the Washingtons to before large crowd that had turned out to greet the team under it's new manager, Frank Chance. Groom pitched fine game. holding the New Yorks to four hits. Mcconnell, for the loca1ss did well up to the sixth, when two singles through the box by Foster and Gandn gave the Nationals three runs and the lead. Schulz, young left handler, pitched the ninth inning for New York and the visitors batted him at will. The Washingtons were as steady as a rock behind Groom, while the locals field ing was wobbly. It was a tumble by HartzelI which led up to McConnelPs upset in the sixth. 4 one handed catch by Shanl<S of a hard drive from Hal Chases bat was the fielding feature.
 Before the game Manager Chance was presented with a set of resolutions engrossed upon the face of a floral bower ten feet in diameter. The res olutions welcomed Chance to New York and were signed by several hundred prominent New Workers. Chance re- ceived numerous other floral offerings, and a blooded bulldog was sent to him from his admirers in G1endora, Calf. President Hampstead of the New York Nationals sent President FaTre1 of the High1anders a large floral horseshoe.

 He demands $15,000 for his ser vices. and then he goes to the other end of the country to Ire ulth1atufas at me through the public press, pro claiming that no representative CT the Detroit club has been sent to talk business with him, Mir.

 Cobb Replies te Navin.
 Augusta. Ga. April f7.-'sAfr. Navin's opening statement in which he says discipline and not money is the 1r-, portant question at issue between us is enough to queer his whole vicious attack upon me-
 Outfielder Tyrus Cobb made this declaration in reply to the statement by the president of the Detroit American league team. In the written statement Cobb terms as final his answer re- garding his differences with the De troit club Cobb's statement in part follows:
 Tt means that Navin has shifted around in his position. For several weeks pas. it has been a matter of money, of not being able to pay what ask. All Navin has offered me is a contract calling for the same amount received last year. He has certainly made me no other offers. In this con neGtion I wish to deny the statement that I am the best paid ball player in the world.
 In regard to his failure to report for spring practice Cobb says:
 'SNaVin told me not to report for spring practice as was ho1dout. Had I reported I would have been required to pay all my expenses on the train ing trip"

NEW LONDON WARMING UP.
Bungalow and New BIeacners Will Make Plant Park Finest in Circuit.

The axe has fallen and claimed it's first victim from among the candidates of the New London ball club. Purcell was the man that got the guillotine. He is an in1elder and his home is at Florence, Mass.
 He was puny and in the workouts Saturday at the armory didn't look the goods, so Burns gave him perrnis- sion to grab a. train in any direction
 All the rest of the players will re- main until after the exhibition games in Worcester, Lawrence and Lowell. There has been small chance to do any real trying out yet and Burns hasn't been able to get a good line on the squad.
 He will leave Slim Mcintyre, the right fielder, at home and will take the new men on the trip. He knows just what Nealon and Mcintyre can do and he will know after those two Worcester games of what the new men are capable. Jordan and Rieger. the as Burns knows their calibre. too.

pect New London to throw salary con- 5ideration to the winds and to get sL cham pionship team irrespective of cost but this will not be done and the other clubs will have no ground to com plain against the local association on this score.
 The pitchers are formidable bunch. Sutcliff, the man secured from the Cubs, is a southpaw. He has more smoke than Pittsburgh and if he cor rects a tendency to be slow in get ting the ball away ought to burn things up in this league.

 Mir Plant is to have a small Struc- ture of the bungalow type built at the end of the grand stand. It will have a reception room and will be for the use of MT. Plants guests and officials of the club. There will also be a room for tIre scorers in which they may compile their reports.

QUESTION OF DISCIPLINE
 AND NOT OF MONEY
President Navin Says Ty Cobb Gets
 No More Special Privileges.

Detroit. Mich, April 17.-Disc1p1ine 6 not money is the all important qUes- ton at issue in the dispute between the Detroit American baseball club and it's star player, Outfelder Tyrus Cobb, who is now under suspension because he refused to accept the term of the 1913 contract rendered him by Pres ident Navin.
 This declaration was made by MT Navin in a signed statement It is un- deTStOOG that g, 800 is the amount in YOlVed in the monetary dispute The statement follows:
 The difference between MT. Cobb and the Detroit baseball club is not over q matter of money There are fundamental principles involved principles of discipline recognized in all walks of life.
 Tt Is conceded by everybody that MT. Cobb is the best ball player in the world. And MT. Cobb is also the best paid ball player in the world. But this
 Did Not Make Baseball.
 MT Cobb did not make baseball; baseball made him. A player cannot be bigger than the game which ere ates him. To give in to MT. Cobb now in his present attitude would be to concede that he is greater than the game itself for he has set all it's laws at defiance.
 ''AIr Cobb instead of reporting for spring practice and giving the club the benefit of his knowledge and his play, organized 9 transforming team and went through the south starring himself with daily uItimatuIns to the Detroit club. If MT. Cobb can per sistently defy the laws of the game, what effect will he have on the other players and where will his Tam above law theory end? We may as well turn the club over to him and eventually the league.
 Defies All Discipline
 MT. Cobb doesn't like a room a hotel clerk gives him; he quits the club for a week. If he doesn't like what a silly man in the gTandstand wells at him he punches his face and is again out of the game. He quit the game when we were fighting for a pennant and stated publicly that he would not play with his conlrade In left field, D. Jones, on account of some r1isun der standing with that player. If he does not feel like practicing he stays away rom the park. He has grown to be-

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MONEY EASIER.
Reduction Of Bank of England Dis. count Rate Has Favorable Effect.

New York, April 17.-Attention was focused upon improving financial and political conditions abroad today by the reduction in the Bank of Eng lands discount rate to 1-2 per cent. from per cent, the figure at which 1t had been maintained since last Octo- Der. Domestic influences. such as the uncertainties of tariff legislation, mis- giyfngs as to the outlook for the money market and the still uncom- pleted process of req dJustment in in Yestment securities made necessary by the offering of new issues at high rates, have largely enumerated the effect of the recent improvement abroad, so that this market has moved in an uncertain way, with frequent periods of depression. The reduction of the Bank of England's rate, how ever, was evidence which could not be ignored It was reinforced by the strong weekly statements of the Banks Of England and Germany, the formers proportion of reserves to liabilities having now been brought up nearly to 48 per cent Bankers were of the opinion that reduction in the officill rate of the Bank of Germany and the Bank of France was not improbable.
 At home call money was easier. Time funds for short dates also were easier, long dates being upheld by the strength of the market for commercial paper. Easing off of call funds is due largely to stagnation of the stock market and should speculation become active it is the opinion of bankers that the effect would be an immediate tightening of funds.
 The effect of the days developments was registered in the stock market by an inquiry from the short interest which was sufficient to advance prices generally There was some buying Of investment stocks. but the chief de- mand seemed to come from bear trad CTS.
