.ampaign before every league game
the Giants play, subject to change If
think a pitcher is going to be wild,
order the boys to wait him out and
make him pitch to them That is, by
waiting for him to the last ditch, he
must get every ball over the plate for
a good strike. This waiting worries
him as rule and helps him to be
loose in his work. The idea is to all
a pitcher in being wild if he shows
any inclination that way. If he does
not, then you have got to switch and
hit everything that's good.
This calls to my mind story which
think has been told by some one, but
which will bear repeating here to IL
lustrate my point. Roger Bresnahan
had a young left-handed pitcher
named Laudermilk two years ago. He
was trying this fellow out and started
him against the Giants. | figured that,
being new in the big league, he would
probably be nervous and lack control
so instructed the players to make him
pitch.
Take a couple" was the way / pu,
lit.
By taking a couple | meant that
they should let two strikes be called
on them before they hit at he ball.
This young pitcher gave the club a
tough battle, and we only beat him out
by the score of 4 to 2 in the ninth in

game.
What do you think of that young
ster?' said he.

against us again"
Il will" answered Bresnahan.
l though he was joking, but he
came back with Laudermilk after two
days rest.
Nov, boys" said I, go up there and
hit everything you can reach"
They did. The result was painful
for Laudermilk In the first game,
which had been such a tight battle, he
had been laying the first ball over the
heart of the plate and my players had
been taking it, according to my orders,
and waiting for him to get wild. His
CONTROL had been microscopic He
tried the same thing on his second
start and we knocked him out of the
box in a very few innings.
Some pitchers cannot field bunts.
and under such circumstances laying
1t down is the proper prescription.
Many good twirlers have been unable
to last in the big leagne because they
were unable to handle hunts. They
had everything else.
Against the Pirates, slow club last

to wade thorugh the mud. Not

the South would lose a hundred mil
lion dollars through inability to get
money to move their crops.
Senator Tillman declared cotton
planters would "be robbed of q hun
dred million dollars more on account
OF the inability Of Southern bank
ers to get money from New York
pirates. He urged that some kind
of remedy be put through imme-
diately to afford temporary relief
and that the house banking and cur
rency committee stop sqabbling" and
allow permanent currency legislation
to be enacted.
Senator Tillman expressed thc hope
that the committee would work out
n plan to inspire confidence in the
business people of the country so
they would lend money to the banks
at per cent on satisfactory COL
lateral.
Secretary McAdoo is we'll inform
ed as to the business conditions i'm
the United States, and 1 am willing
to leave 1t to his good judgment as to
what collateral shall be required"
said the senator. Right now there is
an emergency, and, unless congress
acts promptly within the next co days,
Southern cotton planters will be rob-
bed OF hundred million dollars or
more by the fall in price of their
principal crop. due to the inability
on the part Of the Southern bankers
to get money from New York at any
price or on any collateral.

President Gives Assurances That His
Every Thought Is Friendly to Re

MAJ Bring Tranquility To Troubled
Republic.

Washington, July 31.-President
Wilson made it clear to those who
discussed the Mexican situation with
him today that n had not been sway
ed in the least degree by arguments
of Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson
in favor Of recognition of the Huerta
government in Mexico. He let 1t he
known that his analysis of conditions
from official and unofficial reports and
his judgment Of what should be done
had not been altered by the ambas-
sadOrs statements.
The president is formulating a pol
icy which he told his callers today
involves nothing that is not entirely
friendly to Mexico. He has not yet
announced what his programme will
be, but he is emphatically and unal-
terably opposed to the recognition,
under any circumstances Of the gov
ernment set up by Provisional Pres
ident Huerta through the events in
which President Madero and Vice
President Suarez met tragic death.
1t developed today that Democrats
in the senate were cOncurring in this
view and further discussion Of Am
bassadOr Wilson's statement before
the senate foreign relations commit
tee brought out general sentiment OF
opposition to the suggestion of recog-
milton.
Senator Bacon, chairman of the
committee on foreign relations, Is of
the opinion that to recognize the
Huerta government would be putting
a premium on revolutions in Mexico.
He believes 1t would be an incentive
to every revolutionary leader to as
sassinate the head of the nation with
full expectation that his act would
receive the approval and official rec
ognition OF other nations.
Senator Bacon also is of the opin-
ion that the recognition of Huerta
far from bringing about peace, would
be the strongest encouragement to
ambitious chiefs.
