PLANS OF THE S. P.
TO PROTECT ITSELF

San Francisco, March 21.-Presi-
dent William Sproule of the South
ern Pacific Railway, who has returned
after fortnight's stay in New York,
believes that 1914 crops will be the
measure of prosperity for the Pa
cific coast. improvements, extensions
and other questions involving eXpen-
diture are not to be considered at this
time, accordin gto President Sproule,
who said:
"We are engaged in a strenuous
effort to keep our heads above water.
Southern Pacific earnings, like those
of all railroads, are falling so fast
that the conditions deprive lis of the
power to spend money"
There are no changes contemplat
ed in official circles nor are any new
policies to be introduced as the re-
suit of President Sproule's conference
with Chairman julius Kruttschnitt of
the executive committee and the other
eastern officials of the road.
1t was made known that Vice Pres
ident William F. Herrin will direct
the defense in the suit of the gov
ernment for dissolution of the Cen
trail Pacific and Southern Pacific, to
be tried at Salt Lake. President
Sproule characterized this as an ac-
ton that will affect materially the
prosperity of the whole coast.

WHY RICHARDS PROTESTED.
Was Not Called Out at Second by I'm
pire. and Continued IN Game.

Manager Richards in communica-
ton to the local management today
concerning the protest OF Sundays
game a Cedar Rapids. said that in the
ninth inning Andreen was safe at first.
and Manager Richards. hitting for
Harter. singled to right field. Andreen
going to third. Jude hit to Fulton, the
first baseman who threw to second to
force out Richards. The throw was wide
at second. and Richards believed that
he was safe. In a hurried attempt to
double Jude at first another wild throw
was made, and Richards continued on
to third. Jude going to second. The
ball was then thrown to second tc
catch Jude and Richards tore in for
home. Again the Cedar Rapids infield
blew up, and poor peg was made to
the plate, Richards counting. and Jude
going to third. The Cedar Rapids play
ers claimed that Richards drew the
throw to the plate after he had been
once retired. and thereby prevented the
possible retirexnsnt of Jude.
After Richards had scored. Umpire
Kennedy ruled that he was out at sec

for Richards alleged continuance in
the game after he had been retired.
and for his drawing the throw to the
plate. when he was legally dead run
ner and prevented the play to retire
a live runner. Richards believes he did
not get square dcision. as Cedar
Rapids continued to play on him after
they thought" he was out at second.
Furthermore he was permitted to go to
third and home withou. the umpire
ordering him from the diamond. The
point is this: If the shortstop thought
the player was out, why did he play
for him after the supposed retirement.
and why did the umpire permit him to
continue his course on the bags? The
ruling is applicable only wher, coach
er on a base line draws throw, and
in that case a base runner may legally

runner until declared out by the UNI
pire and If he were in reality out at
second. the umpire was at fault in per-
hitting him TO continue to be base
runner for by doing so he permitted
the Marshalltown team tc continue
the game under the impression that
there were no outs and that there were
two live runners on the bags resulting
in base work which would probably
have been conducted in a different
manner had it been known that he
thought" Richards was out. The whole
result of the decision was that Mar
shalltown was shut out of a possible
tie score or win. and Manager Rich
ards has protected the team by filing a
protest with President Justice.
