HOLLAND OPTIMISTIC.
Will Have Good Team-Expects
Wichita to Sell Club Yet.

st. Joseph, Feb. 3.-Despite things
that have happened in the local base
ball realm recently to make the pros
pect In the Drummer camp look rather
discouraging for next season, Jack
Holland is optimistic and says he be-
right up in the race when the start is
made in April.
Holland said today that his pitching
and catching staffs are the best in the
league and that he will build a good
team around them.
Three left-handed artists are on the
pitching roster of the Drummers. They
are Lynn Mcdonald. drafted from the
Battle Creek club of the South Michi-
gan league; Ralph Bell, who belongs
to the White Sox, but who will prob
ably be back here, and Buck" Sterzer,
the pinwheel server from Erie. Then
there are Elmer Mitchell, formerly
with the st. Louis Browns; Purcell,
who twirled for an Independent club
at Fairbury, Neb., last summer; John
Boss Holland. by "Chief" johnson;
Clyde Park, who was tipped off to the
local magnate by st. Joseph men who
saw him throw curves in the lake re-
gions of Minnesota last summer, and
Joe Jenkins and Thomas.
To date four are lined up in the
back-stopping department. Schang
and Griffith have both signed con-
tracts, and two new catchers. Sim
mons and johnson. will report when
spring training begins. Simmons was
obtained from Venice, Cal. in part
payment for Hank Chellette. and
johnson played in the Texas Oklaho-
ma League during the 1913 season.
Holland considers Schang the best
prospect he has right now and believes
the fellow with the Chinese name has
brilliant future.
That there is another deal on for the
Wichita club whereby it would be
transferred to Kansas City, was a
statement made today by Holland.
There Is a fair chance that it will go
through, and in case it does the sched-
ule meeting probably will be in Chi
cago, instead of one of the league
cities. Holland didn't want any of the
details of the deal to get into print at
this time, as he was afraid it might
end everything. A former big league
star ball player is said to be back Of
the scheme.

Wiseacres of baseball contend that the
minor leagues have more to fear than
the majors by the invasion of the Fed
eral League. They contend that with the
existence of the SO called third big
league, the demand for players will be
greatly increased, and as the Federals do
not recognize the reserve clause, the
minor organizations will be forced to bear
the brunt of the burden. Again, they
explain that the major league clubs can
lose one, two or even three good men and
not be seriously handicapped while the
loss OF one or two men would wreck a
minor league club.
The Federal League has been a benefit
to the players. Many have been in q

would have been possible without the

SAVANNAH IN WAR

EARLY VICTORY
SEEN BY FOES
Of BUDGET
Mayor and Otis in Clash Over
Whitehall Project-Sentiment
Turns Toward Compromise.

Confidence was expressed Saturday
that the Whitehall street improve
ment project and other proposed
amendments to the city budget would
be adopted at the next meeting of
Council, despite the passing of the
lie between Mayor Woodward and
Robert r. Otis. one OF the leaders in
the movement
1t was evident that a number OF
members of the Council who have
been supporting the defiant attitude
of the Finance Committee are on the
point of yielding to the demands for
conference committee to effect a
| compromise that would break the
| manic Board over the budget.
1t was equally apparent that the
! militant attitude Of the advocates OF
| the Whitehall street improvement
was having much to do with the
change of sentiment in the Council.
Not Enough Money, Mayor Says.
Mayor Woodward denied his posi-
| ton in urging that the budget be
passed as recommended by the FL
| nance Committe meant that he OPP
posed the Whitehall street improve
ment.
Anyone who stops to think for a
moment will realize that the city
hasn't sufficient money to provide
| for improvements on South Pryor
street and Whitehall this year" he
| said
The Finance Committee, on which
| Alderman G. X. Kelly, of the Second
Ward was representative, put
$4,000 in the sheet for South Pryor
street. If the Whitehall and For
syth street projects are more i'm
portant to that ward and the Council
| changes the appropriation, it will be
| sa tisfactorV to me-"
Puts Blame on Otis,
The Mayor blamed Otis for the
| blame for Whitehall street being left
| out of the budget on him.
AS the members of the Finance
Committee know. ! had very little to
do with making that sheet. ! sat at
my desk and attended to other du-
ties"
As to Mr.. Otis charge that he was
a Liar and character ASA ssin" be-
| cause he charged that Mr.. Otis was
personally interested in the proposed
Whitehall and Forsyth streets i'm
| provement, the Mayor said:
II don't know whether anyone has
| lied or not. do know Otis told me
| he was interested.
Councils Attitude Unchanged.
II do not propose to pay any at
| tentioR to Otis or any other little
| blackguard of that character. When
he desires to talk business in a quiet
way as a gentleman. then he's en-
titled to some recognition"
The Council has not formally
changed its attitude on the budget
| The special meeting called Friday to
consider 1t was adjourned because
Chairman w. G. Humphrey. OF the
Finance Committee, was out OF the
city. Mayor Woodward has announc-
ed that no more money can be an
ticipated, unless over his veto; and
he intimates that the anticipation Of
the $4,000 ought to be cut down
$4,000
The next meeting OF the Council
will be held February 16. Council
men and citizens are diligent in their
efforts to bring about a compromise
and the chances that they Will sue

Another Graphic Description.

A graphic description of the desti-
tuition that prevails in Bulgaria is
sent to the United States by Mrs.
Hadji Mischief, formerly the beauti-
full and wealthy Miss Pansy Brown,
Of Chicago. She writes:
The situation is terrible. The
words are not coined that can tell the
depths of suffering of poor Bulgarians
to-day. What makes il especially
hard is that there are thousands upon
thousands of refugees from Macedo-
mia and Thrace. and we must care for
them also.
There were so many thousands
killed in the wars. And so many
thousands more were wounded,
manned, blinded! Our hospitals have
been damned for months, and in
stead of the distress decreasing it is
on the increase.
THE winter has been bitter. The
widows and orphans of our brave SOL
diers who gave up their lives are
starving. Sickness is rampant be-
cause the people have not the bodily
strength to ward off disease.
Wants Brave People Helped.
Send help to Bulgaria. I am an
American and l lote these people OF
Bulgaria, brave, noble men and wom-
en-. / want my people in America TO
help my people in Bulgaria.
Don't let the world ever forget
what Bulgaria has done for Christi
anity. Bulgars drove the Turk back
clear to the gates of Constantinopie.
Thousands died in the effort. but they
never stopped until compelled to do
so by international pressure. Help
~
deserve It,"
Contributions for the aid OF the
war sufferers should be sent to Bal

they will be acknowledged and for
