 With the fans enthusiastically support ing them and acceptable umpires watch ing over their work, the Barons have nothing to hinder them at the beginning of the season and should get off to a fiying start.
 Scott Chestnut, the local man who was appointed to a Southern umpiring berth by President Kavanaush, has been as- signed to open the season in chattaaooga along with Pfenniger.

Wis, was touched for passage across the plate in the sixth and ninth stanzas of yesterdays bat tie by the Cleveland American associa- tion team and with this lead the Cleveland minor league aggregation was enabled to thwart all of the ener- getic efforts of the Barons to close up the gap and escape with a 3 to l vic uSSy.
 As has been customary with them this spring the Barons hooked onto the opposing twirler. who was Lush, for mer Cardinal southpaw, in the very first round and on successive hits by Mcdonald and Marcan, the first bat ters up, pushed over a counter.
 For three innings Hardgrove. who was on the mound for the local con tingent, held the Cleveland players safe and the advantage obtained in the first round was successfully held until in the fifth when the Barons began to err and then the visitors succeeded in push ing much sought after run across.
 With the score a 1 to l tie John son went onto the box in the sixth and before he could pull himself to- gether the Cleveland players got him in a bad hole and then managed to rus hacross another tally. when the big pitchers support failed on him.

TWO REGIMENTS
SENT TO TEXAS


International Patrol Reinforced by
Seventeen Hundred Infantry
Washington, March Especially
TO allay as far as possible the
fears of the people of the border, two
full regiments OF infantry, seventeen
hundred strong have been ordered to
proceed to Texas to help patrol the
border.
The troops ordered to Texas were
the seventeenth and ninth regiments
of infantry, the former stationed. at
Fort Mcpherson, Ga, and the latter
at Fort Logan H. Root, Arkansas.
1t is expected that the soldiers will
reach the border by Sunday.
This action comes Immediately af-
ter Gov. Colquitt's appeal for a more
adequate border patrol and the re-
cent embroglio of Vergara, the case
where a raiding party from Texas
dashed across the line and recovered
the body of Vergara.
1t is understood to mean that the
administration intends to go to any
length to preserve peace along the
border and prevent any clash between
Americans and Mexicans.
The troops ordered to the border
today will be stationed al Laredo and
Eagle Pass, and the cavalry now at
these places will be relieved for ex-
tended border work
