Giants Get Home on Tuesday

Giants Get nome on iuesody'
The Giants will not arrive in this
city until Tuesday evening, as they
have couple of games to play with
the Washington Senators TO complete
their long hike from Marlin Springs TO
their own diamond. They will be at
the Polo Grounds on Wednesday for
game with Yale as said before, as final
preparation to the opening of the sea-
son on Thursday. no team in either
league has been so well favored with
good weather. The players have
worked hard and earnestly without los
ing a single full day from practice, and
judging from what the baseball war
correspondents say. the men are in the
same good condition as year ago,
when they jumped off TO a long lead
in the pennant race.
The march from Marlin Springs has
been one long line of victories. Win
ming fifteen of sixteen exhibition games
in a row is nothing wonderful, perhaps,
but it shows that the players are prop
erly keyed up and ready for the more
difficult battles to come. The training
trip has been successful in every sense
Of the word, and the Little Napoleon
will have no excuses TO make If his
Giants do not set the pace from the
start
on Frank Chances own word the
Yankees are just about ready for the
first clash with the enemy. The damp
ness in Bermuda was a slight draw
back, but on the whole he has eX-
pressed himself as well pleased and
greatly encouraged al the outlook. The
players will go TO Washington on
Wednesday with some OF Chances own
spirit-not TO accept defeat, as seemed
10 be the attitude so many times last
year, but TO beat the Senators on their
own diamond

Many Changes Over Winter.

mdnJ manages over WINTER
Many changes have taken place in
major league baseball since the season
closed last year, among which may be
mentioned the death of John T. Brush,
chief owner of the Giants, and the cleo
tion of Harry n. Hampstead as presi
dent Of the club; the elimination of
Herr Horace Fogel and the sale Of the
Philies to a syndicate headed by Will
lam J. Locke, former secretary of the
Pittsburgh Pirates; the taking over of
practically all the stock of the Boston
Braves by James e. Gaffney, and the
appointment Of George Stallings. once
leader Of the Yankees, as manager of
the team; the deposition Of Roger Bres-
nahan as manager of the st. Louis Car
dnals and his signing as catcher with
the Chicago Cubs; the sensational deal
by which Joe Tinker left the Chicago
club and went to manage the Cincin-
matt Reds in place of Hank O'Day, and
by which Frank Chance, former man
ager of the Cubs, came to this city TO
lead the Yankees.
Speaking of managers four clubs in
the National League will try to inn
prove their standing this year under
new leaders. Johnny Evers, the willy
second baseman, will control the desti-
MES of the Cubs in place of Frank
Chance; Joe Tinker, for several years
shortstop with the cubs. will try to
keep the Reds in a forward place, sue
ceeding Hank ODay; Miller Higgins
was promoted At the expense Of Roger
Bresnahan and will do his best TO land
the Cardinals in the first division, while
George Stallings has ambitions to do
something with the lowly Boston
Braves.
In the American League the only
really truly new manager is Frank
Chance, with the Yankees, but George
Stovall, who took over the Cleveland
Maps toward the middle OF last season,
and Joe Birmingham, who assumed the
reins of the st. Louis Browns last Sep
TENDER, may also be ranked as new
corners.
No changes have been made in the
leading teams of either league, and
while every manager has studied TO
strengthen some weak point here and
there, few new faces will be noted when
the players take the field for the open
ing games. The managers who hold
over are as follows: Boston Red Sox.
Jake Stahl; Philadelphia Athletics,
Cornelius McGilicuddy, better known
as Connie Mach; Washington Senators,

curately The Palladium was the only
newspaper in Eastern Indiana which

Clash of Employees Comph-
Gates indianapolis Strike
Truce.
IIILITIA IN RESERVE
Organizer Thorpe Called Into
Conference With Cover
nor Ralston.

TNDqANAPALIS, Ind, Nov. 8.-New
difficulties broke loose in the street
car controversy today when former
car employees, who resumed work TINS
morning, refused to work with men
who were not displaying union but
tons, and whom they declared were
"sluggers," brought to Indianapolis
several weeks ago to prevent the Tor
nation of a local union. Men in va
rious parts of the city were taken from
the cars.
Organizer Thorpe said he feared
the trouble would become serious He
was summoned into conference with
the governor. The orders to the mil
tia to return home were held in abey,
ance.
THE trouble is with the 'sluggers,,
said Thorpe Our men absolutely re
fuse to work with those men who did
not go out on strike with them. We
are having to take the men not hav
ing union buttons off the cars. OF
the original one hundred sluggers
brought here about half have left the
city
Boycott "Suggers."
When the arbitration agreement was
signed the strikers declared they
would not work with "sluggers.'
"At the car superintendent's office
today it was charged that the strik
ers already had broken their agree
ment and that repairs on cars were
being interferred with.
Organizer Thorpe predicted that the
striking interurban men would go bacl
to work on the same conditions as the
city men within few days.
At a meeting held later the unio1
men agreed to continue operating the
cars with the imported non-union, mer
for a day or two pending a settlemen
of the new controversy.
Notwithstanding the tentative set
tlement of the strike the receivershil
against the Indianapolis Traction ant
Terminal company and the 1ndianapo
lis Street Railway company, filed b,
w. H. Dodson. secretary Of the Brick
layers Masons' and Plasterers' Union
and holder of FIVE shares of stock ii
the companies, was proceeded with il
circuit court today. Judge Remste
overruled the motion of the company
attorneys to strike out certain POI
ton of the suit and made it obligator,
on the Indianapolis Traction and Tel
minal company and the Street Railwa
company to make the issue in tn
case, which will be heard early in De
cember, if the plaintiff can force tn
issue to trial at that time.
