Tales Of the Diamond
Humorous and Otherwise
BY BILLY EVANS.

Alva Williams, who proved such a
tower of strength to the Washington
club when Catchers Henry and Aim
smith were forced out of the game
because of injuries, is droll sort of a
chap. He pulled many a good one on
me last summer, that never failed TO
give me a laugh. His best one. be-
lieVe. was in connection with Walter
johnson.
When Charley Street was traded
by Washington it was feared none Of
the other catchers would be able TO
handle the delivery of the great right
handler. The previous year Henry
and Ainsmith who got a. chance to
catch Johnson only when an injury
kept Street out of the game. had their
troubles receiving his speed Last
year Ainsmith was made johnson
regular catcher and inside of a few
weeks he was handling his delivery
in perfect style. All that Ainsmith
needed was It little time to learn
Johnson's style and to time his de-
livery properly.
Most catchers like twirlers with
speed. The average catcher watch
ing Johnson work irnaeines he-is soft
to catch, which / guess is true when
one learns him. Anyway. scribe

Cooperation between the employees Of

might result was the keynote Of an adj
dress by Franklin D. Roosevelt, Assist
ant Secretary of the Navy. last night, at
Naval Lodge Hall, before Columbia
Lodge, No. ia. composed mostly of en-
ployes of the Washington Navy Yard.
Mr.. Roosevelt declared II was the aim
Of the Secretary of the Navy not only to
better conditions in the shops, but also
to improve conditions outside Of the
shops, that is, living conditions. THE
rents in this city are entirely too high
compared with the wages that are paid"
said the Assistant Secretary.
Representative E. r. Bathrick of Ohio
asserted that this regime would treat the
labor people with more justice than they
had ever enjoyed before. He suggested
farming as a relief for hard times in the
city.
A popular chord was struck by Repre-
sentative James Nolan Of California, who
said that the laboring people of his dis
trict had nominated and elected him. and
that he was at the command of his labor
organization. Representative Frank
Buchanan of Illinois also spoke. A buff

THORNTON ATTACKS
SUGAR SCHEDULE
Louisiana Senator Predicts that Large
Re6neries Will Profit by Re-
moval of Duty.

In a statement given out yesterday
Senator John r. Thornton of Louisiana
attacked the sugar schedule of the pend
ing tariff bill as certain to defeat the one
object which has been claimed by the
President and Leader Underwood as the
primary purpose of the proposed legisla-
ton. Senator Thornton said:
Il am in thorough accord with the
view expressed by President Wilson that
a tariff bill should be framed so as to
encourage competition and prevent mo-
nopoly. But the pending tariff bill, in so
far as il concerns sugar will have just
the opposite effect. The provision for
free sugar without doubt will put the
entire control of the sugar industry of the
United States In the hands of the big
refiners At the present time they are
meeting with very effective competition
from the domestic sugar industry. It's
effect has been, and now is, to cheaper
