JENNINGS PICKS.
TEAM To FINISH.
AMONG LEADERS
Detroit Leader Thinks Addition Of
New Players Will Make Club
Strong Contender for Flag.

II EThO1T, April 11.-Hughey Jen-
nings sizes up the Tigers
chances in the American League
race this year as follows:
"In the first place we are sure to
have better pitching than we have
had in some time. With three veter-
ans whom l am sure of and bunch
of youngsters with fine minor league
regulations l believe that We have a
very satisfactory staff.
"Our infield, which was weak last
season, will be considerably improved.
Either Pipp or Burns will be a better
first baseman than Gamer and either
can outhit him. Del spurted at the
close of last season and brought his
average up, but for long time he
was batting less than 200 and he
couldn't help us out when we needed
him
"Bauman will be better man than
he was in 1918. He has done well
this spring, and last fall showed that
he could play an acceptable game at
second base. Kavanaugh, when he
gets Well ! believe will be star.
I have seen few youngsters who
showed any more promise than this
fellow.
"There is no need to discuss Bush.
He ranks with the best shortstops
the game ever has known and prom
Uses to have one of his good years.
l never have seen him appear so
good in the spring before and l look
for him to burn up the league.
"Moriarty, if he hits, will be big
help on the infield. He got going
properly last season for the first time
in several years and should keep up
the good work now that he has dis
covered the secret. He will steady
the infield and keep the boys pep
pered up, which is something that
viii be valuable.
"Veach High or Heilman will be
able to take care of left field in ac
Ceptable fashion. Bob looks better
this spring than he ever has looked
before as a Tiger.
zone Of the very encouraging things
about the outlook for 1914 is the fine
spirit the men are showing. They ap-
pear to be pulling together in splen-
did style and to be ready to fight for
the flag, believing that there is a
better chance to finish high in the
race than there has been for several
seasons past. This is a big thing,
TOO, for confidence and determination
are half of the battle

 T do not question your honesty but you are making a serious mistake if you adopt this rule and I would. not be worthy of the commission you have given me as your leader if did not have the courage to stand here and tell you so,'' he concluded. MT. Underwood was again cheered as he took his seat and that seem ingly closed the debate against the rule.

Representative Hardwick, Democrat Of Georgia. then was recognized to close debate for it's adoption The gentleman from Alabama ap- peals to his colleagues on this side to support a Democratic platform said Representative Hardwick. T appeal to you to support Democratic doctrine as it had been since the time of Jeffer- son and this provision which we pro pose to repeal is no more Democratic doctrine than if you wrote a high protective tariff plank into a Demo 1 cratic platform. 2
 1 Turning toward the Speakers dais and pointing toward Speaker Clark, MT. Hardwick shouted:
 'The distinguished gentleman from Missouri whom we all loved, joined last night in an 11th-N hour assault

 Calling the roll, a task of more than half hour under ordinary cir Ecumstances,s then proceeded.

 Representative Fitzgerald, of New York, chairman of the appropriations committee. loudly proclaimed his vote in opposition.
 Among other Democrats to vote against it were Representatives Cor man, Goulden and Griffin Sof New of Kentucky; Igoe, of Missouri; Kitch- in, of North Carolina; McAndrews ai1d McDermott, of Illinois; Repre- sentativeS Mckenzie and Madden, Re- publfcans, voted for it.

 CAMERA CONCERNS
Aaed Widow of Film Inventor will Profit From
 Payment.

New York, March 27-Representa- lives of the Eastman Kodak Co and the Ansco Go. confirmed today that a money settlement, the amount of which they would not state, had been agreed upon the matter of the Goodwin pat ert. over which the concerns fought for years until the federal court of appeals recently decided in favor of the Ansco Go.
 It had been said that the Eastman concern would carry the case to the United States supreme court but the settlement agreed upon will end the litigation, notice of which, it was said, would be filed today before Judge Hazel in the district court at Buffa- To before whom the original suit was brought.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-03-27

It was said that the widow of the Rev. Hannibal Goodwin, who invent ed the process, will receive a substan- tial sum as her share of the settlement. She is s6 years old and lives in New ark, N. J.
 The settlement will do away with an accounting by the Eastman Co. which might have forced the payment of a royalty on every film it sold in the last Is years.
 Estimates of the amount paid in set- tIement run into the millions.
