CASHI0N GOES ROUTE
Carolina Curver Pitches Nine Innings.
but Refuses to Cut Loose.
Rally in Ninth.
BY WILLIAM PEET.

The Nationals Yannigans, in
charge of Germany Schaefer,
dropped hstless exhibition game
to the Newark International
League club, on the Florida avenue
ball yard yesterday afternoon by 5
to 8.
Carl Cashion was in the box for
the home folks, and was touched
up freely, but with the right kind
of support would have emerged on
top.
The Carolina Curver was far
from right, complaining that the
cold weather bothered him. CASH
ion did not attempt to cut loose with
his full speed; in fact, during the last
fve innings he only lobbed the ball
over the plate.
Without attempting to disparage the
Newark victory. it can be truthfully said
that had the Washington Yannigans
played hawless ball afield the result
would have been different. Germany
ocnaGIeE nlIuEeil was lItc NllAcA oLChdCAs

ing directly responsible for trio of the
hostile tallies.
At the same time, the pitching of s.
Smith and Enzmann, for the Inter
national League champs, was of high
order. although the Grin youngsters
threatened TO knock the last named loose
from his cap during the eishth and
ninth innings

donals got to him In the eighth for three
bingies. Schaefer and Williams coming
through with the blows Il was the bfg
catcher's wallop that scored the run,
which feat he almost duplicated In the
ninth. when with two out and the bases
full he smashed a vicious grounder TO
Eddie Zimmerman that was gathered in
with neatness and dispatch, much to the
disgust Of the Schaefer crowd, who were
kicking up all sorts of a rumous on the
Washington bench, making more noise
than the entire crowd of fans.
Yesterdays game amounted to little.
There was no chance to get a line on
the ability Of the Griffithian recruits.
Pitcher cashion said after the game that
he felt no Ill effects Of his nine-inning
workout, but stated that he could not
get properly warmed up. and for that
reason refused to cut loose with all his
stun. The score:

The Compensation Commission
Adopts Resolution Clear
ing the Law.

The Workmen's Compensation Com
OF putting the new State compensa ton
law into effect on July I. adopted a reso-
luton yesterday which clears the moo'ed
point as to whether an employer Insured
of suit for damages by an employee.
Statements have been circulated by
brokers and attorneys OF the stock COM
panes" reads the statement given out
by the Compensation Commission yester-
day. TO the effect that the policy of the
State fund would not protect an employer
against suit for damages that might be
brought by some employee who may claim
that he was not under the act and conse-
quently had right of action Al common
law
THE commission to-day passed a reso.
luton declaring that all employees OF any
employer carrying on hazardous EN-.
ployment within the meaning of the nct
are included within it's provisions ant
consequently that any employer whose
business is hazardous II insured in the
State fund IL protected against suit for
damages on account OF injury to an EN-
ployee.
THE commission thus answers authori
tatlvely one OF the arguments that ha:
been used persistently to influence EN-
ployers against insurance in the Stats
fund"
