Twin Gods of Power.

If 1915 has determined to try and follow 1914 by
dslodging all champions in sight it will need every tool
in the bag to pry away Ty Cobb and Percy Haughoh'
the games twin gods of power.
Cobb has led the batting lineup of the majors for
eight years in succession the longest reign ever estab
lished in the universe of swat.
Haughton hasn't lost a championship game since
1911 He hasn't regned as long Cobb but for three
wears he has established firm control the scoring
machines of Yale and Princeton. But even with this
great pair 1915 has its chance. Cobb is about due
to be overhaued for eight years is long time to st
in front of over 400 rivals And Haughton will lose
the help of Brickley, Hardwick, Pennock Logan,
Bradlee and others of considerable lk. But Cobb and
Haughton have the habit by and habit isn't always
TO be cracked in the first assault.

SOMERS MAY LOSE
ALL BUT THE MAPS
Cleveland Baseball Man, in
Financial Difficulties, to
Sacrifice Holdings.
~ Telesraph 10 ~ Trlbune. }

Cleveland, Dec. 31.-The financial
affairs of Charles W. Somers, owner
Of the Cleveland Maps, who holds a
controlling interest in the New Orleans,
Waterbury, Conn; Portland, Ore, and
Cleveland Association baseball clubs,
were placed in the hands of COM
mittee of Cleveland Buffalo and Elyria
bankers to-day in an effort to tide him
over a crisis
II is believed that the baseball hold
ings, with the exception of the Somers
interest in the Cleveland Maps, will
have to be sacrificed. The present bust
ness depression, unfortunate real es-
tate investments in Cleveland and Mil
waukee, and the closing of a number
of mines In which the baseball owner
was interested are given as the GAUGE
Of the bankers action to-day
Somers's liabilities are put as ST.
100000. Creditors will be asked to
accept one year 6 per cent collateral
trust notes, secured by all the private
assets of the baseball magnate for
their claims. This will consolidate the
claims and give the necessary time to
liquidate the debts without undue sacri-
ficing of the assets.

of his to regain the championship trench from
which he Unexpectedly driven, but he must find
material aid from his army of youngsters before he
turn the trick. And his club respond to the

hard fighting rather than superior ability pulled them
safely t ough

The letter follows:
December 81, 1914.
Mr.. Jacob Stumpf, Chairman, Reg
istration Committee, Il Warren
ST., New York City.
Dear Sir: Noticing certain sour
rilous charges appearing in one OF
the evening newspapers last night
| wish 10 assure you that such
charges are absolutely unfounded
and il is my intention TO spare no
labor and expense to have prop
erly punished those responsible
for the accusations.
/, therefore, call upon you in
YOUR official capacity as chairman
of the registration committee to
set a day at the earliest possible
moment when | may appear before
YOUR honorable body in person 10
prove to the satisfaction OF your
committee that what ! say is the
truth. Yours very truly, $500,
PLATT ADAMS.
Warren Fielding, the well known
high jumper, and Jeremiah I. Mah9ney,
former track captain of the New YORK
Athletic Club, have been retained by
Mr.. Adams to plead his case.
