OR|OLE PITCHER IS
TO JOIN ATHLETICS
Rumors Say Bob ShaWkey of
Baltimore Club Is New Star
Recently Signed.

PHILADELPHIA. July 15.-Manager
Mack. announced yesterday that a new
tWfrler was about to be added to his
pitching staff. and that he was to re-
port before the Athletics had finished
their western trip. This statement has
caused many rumors in the base ball
world, and led many to believe that
Connie had unearthed a wonder. Dis
patches from Baltimore have 1t that
Bob Shawkey of the Baltimore Inter
national League team is to be the new
twirler
Shawkey was formerly with the
Harrisburg Tri-State team. but was
purchased by the Athletics leader in
the spring of 1912. He was given a
try-out at the training camp at San
Antonio. but he was not quite ripe
enough for the big show and was trad
ed to Jack Dunn with several strings
attached
This season, so far, Shawkey has
tWirled superb ball for the Orioles, and
although Manager Dunn's team has
been in second division it has been no
fault Of Shawkey, for he has fourteen
victories to his credit and only three
defeats.
When Mack announced that the new
pitcher would join the team he de-
clined to uncover the name and re-
fused to confirm the report that Shaw
key was the man.

We see from the Greenville News
that there is talk of taking the parlor
car off the Columbia, Newberry and
Laurens road, which is now operated
between GreenWlle and Charleston.
The movement for this started, we un-
derstand, with the Charleston and
Western Carolina which handles this
car from Laurens to Greenville 1t
would be a great step backward to
have this car taken off. These cars
have to be run some time before they
pay, but we believe this car will pay
the roads if left on. When the Pull
man was first put on the Southern be-
tween Charleston and Greenyille it
was some time before the people used
1t to any great extent, but now it is
well patronized. and we believe the
same will be true of the car on the
Coast Line, If given an opportunity
This car was put on as a result o.
a meeting of various representa-
tiVes from the towns along the road
which was held in Greenville 1t is
to be continued between Charleston
and Columbia, and the c., Nc l.. is
willing to haul it to Laurens. Why
should Greenville people be indffer-
ent?
If Newberry had chamber Of COM
merce this would be legitimate sub
1ect for such an organization to handle,
but as she has not it might be we'll
for live city council to look into the
matter.
The c. w. c. already has a very
poor connection at Laurens for any
point except on the night train. Time
was when the traveller could leave
Charleston in the morning and go this
way, not only to Spartanburg, but on
to the mountains OF western North
Carolina. And the same was true of
persons in this section who desired to
go to Spartanburg. And then there is
talk of breaking the through connec-
tion to Greenville. Somebody should
look into these matters. We do not
desire to be cut entirely off from the
up country by this route. We can not
see how it could be to the interest of
the G. e W. c. to break all these con
nections, and it would knock the c..

SOiuhpld, GU. l.-oHe Ol lne
most important and interesting pieces
of work ahead of the present legisla-
ture is the flat two-cent mileage bill,
now being considered by the cimmit-
tees. The committees will report this
bill before the middle of next week
and it is possible that it will receive
favorable report from the house
committee and an unfaYorable report
from the senate committee. In fact,
this is the general impression pre-
vailing in Columbia at present. The
governor recommended a fiat two
cent rate in his annual message to
the legislature and opposition that is
being encountered comes, or great
part of it comes, from unexpected
sources. Supt. Anderson of the Char
lesion and Western Carolina railroad
and many railroad attorneys are ap-
pearing, working against the passage
of such a bill.
The entire matter hinges in the
fact whether or not a fiat two-cent
rate would be coniiscatory. The bur
den of proof, hence, will fall on the
railroads, if they endeavor to prove
that such bill is unconstitutional.
The statute is given the benefit of
the doubt before it is declared un-
constitutional and the legislature will
not have to prove that it is not con-
fiscatory, but rather the roads will
have to prove that it is.
Another important piece Of legisla-
ton was the bill introduced by Sena-
tor Nicholson, Of Edgefield, which
would require the insurance compan-
les to invest 20 per cent of the pre-
miums collected in this State in
South Carolina securities, such as
stocks bonds and real estate mort
cages has been practically lost. This
bill was up before the senate last
night and it's author made a speech
in behalf of it, Realizing, however,
that it had no chance to pass the
the third and fourth sections of the
bill which required the companies to
invest a stated percentage OF the col
