Immediately after that and accepted
seven out Of eight chances around the
keystone.
Albany scored first in the fourth,
when two free tickets and a couple Of
sacrifice hits netted them two runs. In
this session Manager CASTOR was
spiked but finished the game. Ameri-
Gus came back in the fifth and drove
three across on two triples, single
and walk. In the next inning Amer
icus turned two bases on balls and a
single into one run. Albany scored
three in the sixth on four passes, a sac
rifice and single, their first hit Of
the game.
In their half of the sixth, Americas
made tow and forged ahead on two sin
gies, walk and a passed ball Amer
icus managed to keep this lead until
the ninth, when two singles and sac
rifce netted the Babes enough to tie
the score.
In her half of the tenth, Americas
made one on double by McLain, a
sacrifice by Manchester and a single
by Dacey Then Albany won the game.
Two hits, an error and bum decision
by the Albany umpire gave Wells two
runs and the game.
The Babies will play in Americus to
day. CASTOR and his men are going to
strain every muscle to beat the Sally
league team. Castor will send Bis

MUCKALEES LOSE TEN

astORS Men Outpay the Albany Babies But Lose Out in
Last Game. Free Tickets to First Spell Ruin for
MuCkaee Hopes. Albany Here Today

The Muckalees outplayed the AlbG-
ny Babies yesterday Afternoon and yet
lost 10-inning game to 7. Liberality
in isuing passe to first base, coupled
with one or two close decisions on the
part of the umpire, cost the Americas
team the game. Three separate times
the Muckalees came from the rear AMI
seemingly sailed the game away but
Phil Wells team managed to shove one
over in the tenth that ended the
scoring.
Albany showed up very weak for a
class C league team and Americas
showed considerable class as a class
D bunch. Every Muckalee from Cas-
ton down to the rawest recruit handled
himself like veteran and played the
game for all it was worth.
Williams started out for Americas
and aside from his liberality with pass
es, worked like top. Angus held the
Sally leaguers without hit for five
innings, and gave up only l bingle i'll
his stay Of six innings in the box But
in spite of this, Albany made five ru..s
off his delivery. Angus presented
eight Albany men with passes to first

has made in my opinion the gamest
player on the diamond. And, in my
judgment, if he is provided with the
proper material he will go down in his
tory as one of the great managers q
the game"
Johnny Evers, however, isn't going
to Boston as manager, but as ball
player. Whatever may have been the
differences in opinion regarding his
success in handling the managerial
reins for Chicago last year, there never
has been time when as a player Ev-
ers has not produced something about
second base to stamp him as really
great. r> @gS 'tsi W AIIgg
Possibly in temperament Evers was
not just the man to handle players or
to lead with the same measure that he
could serve, but considering the han-
dicaps he surely must have had in 1913
in Chicago, the final verdict on his
managerial ability hardly VIII be de-
termined by this one campaign.
Pitchers Fear Him
When all is said Evers is a winning
ball player. He is noted for his keen
thinking on the baseball field and fof
the quickness of his mental as we'll as
physical action A left-handed batter
and one always crowding the plate, he
is regarded as dangerous by every
pitcher
On the bases he is fast, and in hil
position he covers more than the usual
ly wide territory. None has been his
superior in handling thrown balls or III
pivoting double in plays.
1t is no wonder that all Chicago is
up in arms over losing him, and that
the Boston National league partisans
are so jubilant
When back in 1903, Evers went to
Chicago as a mere STRIPPING, and with
only a few months experience he was
one of about three-score young players
whom Frank Selee haG corralal as ma
terial for the old team that he was
about to reconstruct. Evers' brief e2-
perience in Troy, where he batted for
.2S5 and fieldsd for ,8S9 in his 81
games, was not taken so much into ac-
count by Selee as that astute mana
bers belief in the Youngsters posi-
bilities as evidenced by the general
way in which he handled himself in
the games that Selee had seen him
play.
But even if Selee had not sensed Ey-
ers' abilities, that worthy commanded
almost instant attention. Shay as he
was, and without impressive physique,
he bent himself in that first training
rip of 1903. He was one of some 81
recruits, but when het discards were
made Evers still stuck. He did net
return to Chicago as a regular, but
soon when Bobby Lowe was disabled
he got into the game, and he always
remained in it. And in a short time
he was destined to become the greatest
keystone Of the greatest infeld the Chi
cago team ever had.
Evers' advance was rapid, but once
he found his stride he held it. Always

From these figures it will be noticed
that Eyers has batted no tower than
$50 for the past six years, except In
1911, when he was out of the game
most of the season with a broken leg.
He ranked fourth in the league with
.341 two years ago, and last year as
playing manager his figures were ,2S5.
In no sense is he an "old man" aud
with his change of base and his always
enthusiastic desire to make good with

IN HIS EARLY EXPERIENCES IN BASEBALL

has he been a player out to win, and
never player whose interest was CEN
tered in himself. 1t has been hard work
and teamplay for Evers, first, last AMI
all the time. Although always a dan
gerous hitter, his seasons average has
mattered little to him. Likewise, as is
tie way with all great fielders, his ay-
erage in figures often has been distanc-
ed because Johnny always has gone al.
ter everything in sight and hisErecord
has suffered in consequence.

dent Wilson, appropriated $26O.00O ~
an initial step, and will grant moro
funds II desired. The appropriation
will be used In caring for the imme-
date needs Of Americans. especially
those without means Of obtaining any
funds.

gress was as follows:
"The present disturbances In Eu-
rope, with the consequent Interruption
Of transportation facilities, the in
crease Of living expenses. coupled with
the difficulty Of obtaining money from
this country, have placed q largo num-
Der OF American citizens temporarily
or permanently resident In Europe in
a serious situation and have made It
necessary for the United States to
provide relief and transportation to
the United States or to places Of
safety.
.The situation also has thrown on
our Diplomatic and consular officers
an enormous burden in caring for the
interests Of Americans in the dis
turbed areas and makes It necessary
to provide for greatly increased ex-
penses.
"In view Of the exigency Of the stu
alton as above outlined, recommend
the immediate passage by Congress- Of
an act appropriating $250. 900. or as
much thereof as may be necessary. to
be placed at the disposal Of the Pros
ident, for the relief. protection and
transportation OF American citizens
for personal services and for other ex-
penses which may be incurred In con-
nection with or growing out Of the
existing disturbance in Europe"
Use OF a United States warship to
carry to Europe $500, 900 in gold for
the relief OF stranded American tour
lists was proposed by New York bank
ers.
Washington.-All restrictions on the
amount OF currency which may be is
sued under section five OF the bank
law was removed In an amendment by
the House. passed 231 to 6 and hur-
ried over to the Senate. The original
law limited the issue to $500, 900 900.
New York.-The clearing house
Monday decided to, issue clearing
house certificates to meet the cur
rency situation brought about by the
European war crisis.

Relief Department
Enters Into Dispute
With P. X. r. Co.

Because they are denied the prlV1-
leg of making payments to the Penn
sylvania Voluntary Relief Department
fund, strikers to-day announced their
intention to take their case into court.
Plans will be discussed at meeting
tonight at strike headquarters, 1884 hs
North Sixth street.
Men who went out on strike were
requested by the company to turn over
their relief books and certificates.
Many refused to comply with the re-
quest, claiming they had paid monthly
dues to the fund and were entitled to
some return. Since the strike former
employees have sent money to Phila-
delphia, to the office of Superintendent
w. b. McCaleb and to other depart
ments.
The money sent in by discharged
employees was not received. but was
returned to the men with letter
stating they were no longer members,
having left the employ of the COM
pany. Letters, with copies of books
and checks sent in by strikers and
returned will be presented to the court
The strikers want to know II they
have any claim on the fund.
At the office of the superintendent
of the Philadelphia division to-day it
was stated that all men in the relief
department are subject to rules. Vio-
Iations of these rules, 1t was said, takes
away the right of the men to all
claims. The strikers quit of their
own accord and when they did so they
lost all claim to any further consid-
Grafton from the relief department, 1t
was said.

Democrat Assails Bryan
on Tainted Money Charge

Omaha. Neb., June 2.-"Where did
Bryan get his money, and why did he
not return the tainted money which
was subscribed to his campaign fund
in 19O4?" This question is made the
subject of violent attack upon Will
liam j. Bryan by Colonel John G.
Maher, leading candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Governor
of Nebraska.
In part the statement says "Twen-
ty-five years ago the Bryans were
poor. To-day they are rich. Where
did they get it? From the people. of
course. What have they produced !?
Chautauqua lectures, to be sure.
In 1904, when Bryan was a candi-
date for the Senate and his brother.
in-law chairman of the State commit
tee, $4,000 or 1000 was sent to Ne
braska for use in the campaign. Later
when the facts were published. Mr.
Bryan did not deny that the money
reached Nebraska, but stated that If
it was shown to he Wall street or
Tammany money he would repav II
The congressional Investigation
J brought forth the testimony from
Thomas Fortune Ryan that he ha Il
contributed hundreds of thousands TO
the fund from which that remittance
came. That is the same Ryan whom
Bryan wanted to exclude from the
Baltimore convention"
