in salary a fair share OF the huge pro

Some Athletic enthusiasts already
are specializing on whether Connie
Mack will pitch Bender or Plank in the
opening game Of the 1914 world series,
but this speculation seems a bit pre-
mature.
It is true that the Quaker City gang
has rather firm clutch on the first
rung Of the American league ladder.
but the race isn't over. Not by about
II weeks or 50. And some upsets are
about due.
The Athletics are on the top not be-
cause they have played championship
baseball but because most of the other
clubs have so far put up only a bush
league brand of the national pastime
The Athletics are far below their 1913

The law Of baseball averages rules
that at least one team must connect
with a winning streak somewhere
around mid-season, and if that team
should happen to be either the Tigers,
Senators, Browns. Red Sox or even the
White Sox it will bode i'll for Connie
Macks tribe.
Ed. g. Barrows. president Of the In
ternational league, declares that base

suit Of the Federal leagues advent
While the vast majority of fans agree
with Barrows about the game perform
ing a go-back, only a few are in ac-
cord with the idea that the Federal
league is mainly responsible.
In our opinion, the avaricious big
league magnates are more responsible
than anyone else. In fact. they are prim-
arily at fault Had they paid the ball
players salaries commensurate with
the money the players earned for them
there is little likelihood that any Of the
players would have jumped to a third

MARKETS
New York Cotton

New York, April 3.-Cotton made
new high ground for the movement
today, first prices being to 10 points
higher on active demand from lead
ing trade interests for near months.
Realizing supplied good deal of cot
ton around the openin figures.
Prices worked off only or 8 points
during the early trading,
Only slight reactions seemed sufi-
cient to bring in a renewed demand
from old crop shorts late in the
morning and prices showed continued
firmness with active months selling
about to u points net higher.
Fluctuations were somewhat irreg-
ular during the early afternoon with
prices easing off 4 to 5 points from
the best under realizing. New crop
positions held relatively steady on
continued covering.
Profit taking increased in the al
ternoon and at 2 O'Clock prices were
only 2 to points up.

that waiter and said: George, vol

The bonehead just looked at me-
and grinned until Jimmy Murphy
said: George, you do as the gentle
man tells you or you will lose a few

He brought it all right and waded
right in. But say, it was the mean

Bowen was out in uniform md got a
good workout
The physician who is attending Bow
en- reports that the chap will be out
next week and that unless something
unforeseen happens he will be in uni
form before the middle of the week.
Grady's ankle is badly sprained, but
the injury is not as serious as was
first feared.
Manager CASTOR is turning his at
tention to his pitching staff and is
working away to get four men ready
for the opening of the season. 1t al
ready looks as though Dave is going
to be able to get together good pitch
ing staff. The five boys on hand look
better every day and an addition was
made to the staff yesterday that will
give Davie another man to work with.
Tudery, a southpaw who has beeG
working with Macon, arrived in Amer
icus yesterday and reported to Castor
Geo. Stinson sent the lad to Dave with
instructions that he believed he would
make him valuable man. He was re-
leased by Macon when Geo. Stallings
gave Stinson couple of southpaws
when the Braves broke training camp.
Tndery showed considerable class yes
