The teams in the amateur leagues are
better balanced than at any time within
the last five years. There seems not the
least doubt that the competition this sea-
son is going to be closer than in long
while, and that more mines will be strug-
Cling for the pennant toward the latter
part OF the schedules than has been the
case in some time. 1t has heretofore been
the case that several clubs would be en-
tirely out of the running, and only two
teams would have a real chance for the
championship. but the conditions now
are much at variance with that.
For several years there have been two
or three clubs which were counted as
sure winners in their leagues almost be-
fore their seasons started. and one of
which was expected to win the city
championship without doubt That
left no incentive for any of the other
teams to play hard after the latter half
of the schedules. Three years ago it was
the American Security and Cornell. No
follower of amateur base ball expected
any other clubs to beat out one of these,
and the expectation was justified by the
actual result of the race that year.
The next season it was Cornell, Amer
lean Security and Trust Company ana
Pepco Again it was self-evident fact,
even before the season opened, that one
of these would finish with the champion
ship of the city to it's credit. Last sum-
mer it is questionable if anybody had
the least idea that Cornell or the Amer
lean Security and Trust would not be the
champion at the end of the year. Those
two clubs stood out in contrast to the
others and II was the issue between
them in their league which finally deter
mined the winner of the city title, it be-
ing foregone conclusion that there was
no other nine in the post season series
strong enough to beat either.
Conditions are different now. Unless
there is a decided change the teams
which enter the post season series are
going to be evenly enough balanced to put
up close and interesting fight. There is
none that seems to stand out over the
others, even in the different leagues there
being sufficient strength in the various

INDIAN PITCHER JOHNSON
DEFENDS JUMP TO FEDS
Contends in Court He Was Fright
ened by Statements Of Garry
Hermann.

CHICAGO. Ill, May 15.-side lights
on the training trip of the Cincinnati
National League baseball team and allie
cations that George H. Johnson, Indian
pitcher, signed his contract with August
Hermann. the owner Of the club, be-
fore Superior Judge Foell yesterday in
opening arguments on the motion to dis
solve the temporary injunction obtained
against johnson. The latter broke his
contract with the Cincinnati team and
signed with the Kansas City Federal
League club. Judge F'oen granted the re-
straining order to the Cincinnati club
and Johnson has been warming the
bench ever since. 4
The Indian pitchers contention rests
on the "ten-day clause" which gives
the club with which he signs the right
to terminate his contract at ten days
notice. His assertion Is that the contract
is not mutual and the player is placed
at a disadvantage.
The argument began by Silas Strawn
attorney for johnson, reading an affida-
Wit which stated Johnson was negotiating
with Otto knabe, manager Of the Balti-
more Federal League team, and George
Stovall manager Of the Kansas City Fed
telegram from Hermann. owner of the
Cincinnati club. He saw Hermann. ac-
cording to his statement. and the latter
told him that it would be folly to Join
the Federals.
Acted on Herrmann's Advice.
According to the affidavit, Hermann
said that the Federal League had no
parks. no grandstands, no capital, and
that it would break up before one game
was played. II johnson signed he would
probably be forced out of organized base
ball forever. Therefore. the Indian as
serts he was greatly frightened and
signed with Hermann.
The training trip to Alabama was then
mentioned. While there johnson was
advanced $500 for his personal needs.
He contracted a severe cold, and was un-
able to practice because Of this, and
Hermann fined him S10O for not being
in condition. Then he went to the Fed
eral League.
When Mr.. Strawn concluded, Attorney
John j. Healy, representing the Cincin-
natl club, Immediately filed an affidavit
denying all Of Johnson's allegations.
Base ball celebrities crowded the court
room. Among them were James Gilmore.

AGED GREENFIELD
RESIDENT KILLED
ON HIS WAyHONE

On Sunday afternoon Ferdinand
Luebke, an aged resident of the town
Of Greenfield, was struck by an auto
mobile while returning from church and
so badly injured that he died an hour
after the accident
AS near as the facts can be learned
| they are about as follows: He had at
tended services at the German Evan
gelical church short distance east of
the Tucker bridge and after the SER
vices started to his home which is south
of the bridge on the road leading to the
Helm farm. When part way down the
hill he saw cloud of dust from an ap-
preaching automobile and as the dust
was blowing across the highway from
from the south to the north he decided
to cross from the Forth to south in
order to avoid the fine particles in the
air. When part way across the thigh
way an automobile came
upon him from the rear and bore
him to the earth. One arm was
broken, ribs were broken, shoulder
crushed, right leg broken andl other ia
juries almost snuffed out his life at
once. Both cars stopped, many kind
friends who had been in the church
gathered around and he was borne to
his home in an automobile owned by
his neighbor, Albert Bentz. The in
jured resident talked freely
and was perfectly conscious before
he died. He was struck about
o'clock and died about one hour la
ter. Among those with SHIN at the
last was his pasto., Rev. H. P, Jordan,
Baraboo who had conducted the SER
vices in the afternoon.
Both cars stopped. The driver of
the machine which struck Mr.. Luebke
expressed deep regret! at the unfortu-
nate accident. The number of his car
was not taken and no one seems to
know who the driver was. The num-
Der of the other car was taken and is
said to be 14333W.
Mr.. Luebke was born March 5, 1889,
in Winsmar, Germany, and was uni
ted in marriage with Emile Belize in
after years. Theyacame to this coun-
try in 1871. Four children were born
to them: Mrs. Anna Gerhardt and
Herman Luebke, Castlewood, South
Dakota and Frank and John Luebke,
town of Greenfield near Baraboo.
Funeral on Thursday afternoon at
l 200 at the home and 2 o'clock at the
church, Rev. Jordan officiating.
