BUSH LEADS IN
WALKS TO FIRST
Detroit ShOrtStop Most
Successful in Playing
Waiting Game.
Nv ERNEST IIANIGAN.

Owen Bush. of the Tigers. probably
will lead the pass getting brigade IN
the American League this season, the
tiny Detroit shortstop having, in the
first four months of the campaign, re-
ceived fourteen more complimentaries
than any other player in the younger
organization. Bush set the pace IN
procuring bases on balls in the Amer
can in 1912, but last year the athlete
who most often did the promenade act
was Bert Shotten, of the Browns.
Shottcn is leading his team in being
walked by the pitchers this year. but
he does not come anywhere near lead
ing the American League in this re-
spect. To August ] the st. Louis sub
urbanite had been favored with thirty
nine gratuities by the mOundmen.
Bush, best at the waiting game, had
wendell his way TO first over the four
ball route on seventy-four occasions.
Second 10 Bush among the pass get
tiers is Eddie Collins, Of the Athletics,
with 60; third, Eddie Murphy of the
same combination. with s.; fourth,
Iris Speaker. of the Red SoX, with
%. and fifth. Roy HartZcll, Of the Yam
KEGS, with 81. The five best walters IN
the American League last year were,
iu the order named: Shottcn, OF ST.
Louis: Collins, Of Philadelphia; VOL
ter. of New York; Jackson, of Cleve-
land. and Bush. of Detroit

Vera Cruz, May 22.--In preparation
for his downfall, Gen. Huerta is re-
ported to be executing all his politi-
cal enemies who are held in prison
at Mexico City. The dictator has de-
termined his enemies will not have
the satisfaction Of living to see his
destruction, If he is doomed to fall.
That Huerta Is determined to fight
and will make q last stand in the cap
ltol Is indicated by the fact that he
has modified 10000 men in and
around the city.
Gen. Villa, who is already boast
Ing Of what he will do when he takes
Mexico has sent word to the capitol
that he will open all jails and free
all prisoners as one of his first acts.
General Gustave Mas is said to be
preparing to elaborate the official re-
port to exonerate his federal soldiers
from the charges Of numbering Private
Samuel Parks.

Niagara Falls, Ont. May 22.-The
spectre of defeat is to sit at the coun-
Gil table with the Huerta delegates
in the mediation conferences from
this day onward.
The crowning humiliation has been
thrust upon them by word from
Washington that the spokesman for
Carranza and Villa will wait in the
hotel where conference is taking place
and while denying the tottering die
tator's delegates, the dignity of rec
ognition will give to medators the
messages of the conquerors.
Today the official representatives o
Huerta are imploring their chef in
Mexico City to allow them to save
something honorable from the wreck.
They wait his word that he will re-
sign and pray that he may not resign
too late.
