 MEET REVERSES

Petrograd, March 5. 10 p. m.,-(via London. March 6. 2:22 a. m.)-Advices re- ceived here say the Austro-Germans have met with series of reverses recently, culminating in the Russian reoccupation today of Stanislau, which was evacuated fortnight ago.
 } Serious battles are reported between the Mazolaboretz pass in the Carpathians and the River San, where the Austrian ad- vance is said to have been checked. In the vicinity of Salinlka, midway of this line two Austrian regiments are said to have been wiped out by Russian machine guns
 During the fighting on March and g., the Austrians charged the Russian lines repeatedly, at times reaching the Russian trenches.
 Austrian officers captured during the fighting are reported to have said that their losses never have been heavier.
 At Lutowisko, east of the San and south of Prezmysl, on the night of March 2, the Austrians made four attacks on the Russians, which are said to have been repulsed with heavy losses.
 The surrender of Stanislau was preceded during the period from February 1 to March 8, by heavy fighting. the Austrians bavihg heavily fortified Hallcz, snort distance to the north, and also the val- lcys of the Lomnica and Lukwa rivers. Here, 1t is asserted, the Russians cap- tured a large number of guns and rapid fl, CTS, many officers and men and q quantity of stores.

NEGRO KILLED AND ANOTHER HURT BY
 ACCIDENTAL SHOT

Selma, March 5.--(S Special. )-Alex Harris is dead and Jim Lake is dy- ing as the result of the accidental dis charge of double barrel hammarless shotgun in the hands of Lovett Burdin at the Dallas county jail about noon Friday. All three are negroes. The ao- cident happened during the transfer of number of prisoners from one tier of cells to another.
 About year ago when a transfer of prisoners were being made several of them made a dash for liberty and Friday when Jailer Sebe Aycock start ed to make the transfer he stationed Lovett Burdin, a trusty and who is the cook at the jail near the front door of the prison with the gun loaded with buckshot. While standing at the door it is thought Lovett Burdin began to fool with the gun and before he knew it had discharged the weapon. One of the buckshot entered Alex Harris head, killing him instantly. Two of the shots entered the breast of Jim Lake and no hope is held out for his re- covery
 Sheriff Doherty, who made an inves- tigation of the shooting Friday after noon, states there was no doubt it was purely an accident. Harris was in on the charge of forgery, while Jim Lake is being held on the charge of grand larceny.

BARON YANNIGANS MEET
 REGULA IN GAME TODAY

Orlando, Fla, March 5.--(Speeial. )-Un- der the eagle eye of crafty Molesworth. manager of the Barons, the Birmingham workouts, morning and afternoon. They are showing advanced season form, but it is still early to get a satisfactory line on individual merits.
 The team as a whole, looks to be fast and capable of maintaining the speed developed last season, old heads who know what the performances of the team was last year, predict that this season S squad will be on par with the best ag- gregation ever turned through the mill by Birmingham.
 Manager Molesworth is satisfied with conditions to date.
 We are going slow. No use to de- velop Charlie horses and make a few cripples before the schedule opens Next week, we are going to break loose and show the Orlando public the real pepper and high lights of the Baronial outfit. We will give the Phillies game they will remember
 At 2:3o tomorrow, the public will be
  and regulars play duel that promises to show some of the Barons speed.
 At Winter park Thursday, when the tribe from Alabama took the Rollins collegians through the mill, some of the real class of the Barons was exhibited. Johnson, catcher, showed his spurs to the fans when he raced back for a long distance and captured a mean fly. It Was one of the features of the game, and proved Johnson's ability.
 The Barons now on deck arc ready for action are: Pitchers, Hardgrove, Johnson. Robertson, Roth, Crimes Ray, Cantley, McDuffie Colwe1l and Love.

Business Men Are Pleased
 That Bdugh Will Accept
Editorial In Sporting News Urges That the Best Interest of Southern League Be Considered. Baugh the Logical Man--He Still Refuses to Be Candidate, But Will Accept If Elected
Ky RICHARD F. LUssIER

toned Will be eliminated and u pres ident chosen against whom nothing
 can be raised in the way of criticism
 by any faction.
 The editorial in the Sporting News clearly places the issue before the pres idents of the various clubs in the South ern league. The action of several of the magnates will bear watching on the grounds of personal interest.
 As for Robert II Baugh. he was prom inently identified with the southern league prior to the assumption of the presidency by the late W. M. Kava- naugh. Under the successful Kavanaugh regime, MT. Baugh has proven the stead fast lieutenant. and the policies of Judge Kavanaugh always found an ardent hacker in Bob Baugh. In fact, MT. Baugh. by his diplomacy ard tact, so impressed his confreres that in the few times that Judge Kavanaugh threatened to resign owing to his multtudinous busi- ness cares only one name ever occurred to the league magnates to succeed the incumbent and that was-Robert H. Baugh. of Birmingham.
 However, even in those days, MT. Baugh smiled away all thoughts of at taining the presidency of the league and gathering the magnates together, he would impress on them that they should prevail on Judge kavanaugh to accept
 
 would carry his point and Kavanaugh- ism would come in for another term. MT. Baugh knew that Judge Kavanaugh was the right" man for the job and SUD- ported most ardently all his policies
 These policies at times infringed on the rights of the Birmingham club, of which MT. Baugh was president. but the local leader stated years ago, as we'll as yesterday, that the best inter- ests of the Southern league were para mount over that of the individual club
 It is these broad and progressive views of Mr Baugh that has impressed his brother magnates with his particular fit- ness to succeed the late Judge Kava- naugh. The persistent refusal of MT. Baugh to enter in a scramble for the honor and his dignified attitude on the matter has also occasioned much favor able comment throughout the, Southern circuit and the signs of the times'' point that the magnates will get to- gether at the Tutwiler Monday morning and unanimously elect Robert H. Baugh for the presidency.
 This will be done because it will be impressed on several of the "aspirants' that the election of MT. Baugh will serve the best interests of the Southern asso , citation of baseball clubs.

Bill Ak Gets Exclusive
 InterDieW With Moley
Baron Boss Tells of Dongs at Training Camp in Orlando
 Gives Fresh Dope Birmingham Prospects
By BILL AK

Orlando. Fla, March -tspecial)- -sThe hoys are coming fine" thus spoke Man. ager Carleton Molesworth this balmly March afternoon as he gazed in happy content on the festive activities of his championship Barons.
 Moley didn't know that he was being interviewed, so he made the above remark kind of off-hand. so to speak. But your correspondent was on the job, and to adapt the possessiye plural pronoun, so much in vogue among training camp scribes. just edged over to the Baron boss and began conversation.
 MT. Molesworth. we remarked in a rather off-hand fashion and assuming q Dolly Dalrymply manner. MT. Moles- worth. what do you think of the situa- tion?'
 Evidently Molesworth has been inter- viewed before. Anyway he failed to get excited in the least. only he shugged his shoulders in a bored sort of way and gulped out What situation?''
 Well, the fans at home naturally want to know we paused long enough for a couple of dashes, hoping to draw the un- suspecting mogul t4conversationb by the gentlest means possible.
 Then Moley just looked at us and laughed, and all of a sudden it began to dawn upon us that some considerable of these interviews that eminate from train ing camps terminate just this side or the supposed print of animation. But your correspondent was not to be foiled in his attempt to obtain the real article. We were dead bent on an exclusive inter view, and finally persuaded Moley to talk.
 Well. as I was saying just now be- san Moley, "the boys are coming fine. l usually say that about this time every spring, and when I fail to say it some body usually says it for me. That doesn' t necessarily mean that they are coming fire. Sometimes they are and sometimes they are not. But at least that Is what you've got to tell the fans Baseball fans, you know, don't stand for pessimism. Un- less we could win a few pennants before the season starts what would become of Memphis and New Orleans? You see base ball is a business, and we have to look after interest of our weaker brothers as well as feed the weaknesses of our own supporters
 Now" continued Moley. 'I am not going to predict that We will win the predict that we will win a pennant, be- cause we managers must keep the fans doubting on some points in order to pre- serve our prestige. I will predict that we will finish in the first division, however.

SAYS KAVANAUGH
 HAS LITTLE CHANCE
Captain C. T. Crawford Dis- cusses Southern League
 Situation

Nashville, March -tSpeeial. That Coburn Kavanaugh's candidacy for the league presidency reached it's crux two days after the funeral of Judge Kay . anaugh. was the inference from an in- terview given tonight by Capt, (. T. Crawford. vice president of the south ern league. Captain Crawford is in Nashville visiting relatives.
 q don't see how the impression got cut that the league meeting vas de- layed to boost the candidacy Of Co., burn Kavanaugh. stated Captain Crawford in response to an eNplana- ton of the occasion for the delay. He would have stood much better chance of election two days after the fanera, of Judge Kavanaugh than he does now Captain Crawford refused to commit himself upon the probable election of any candidate to succeed Judge Kayanaugh.

If l am not mistaken 1 have made that prediction in another paper this year, but your paper got if first as I first made 1t in 1908. when took charge of the Barons. and remember I gave it out one night. We have a good club, and I see no reason why We should not be in the running if we get a break in the luck. The boys are all hard at work, although they some times perspire while practicing on the diamond. They are all satisfied with their contracts as they much prefer the fat salary we pay them to that secured as railroad firemen, plumbers. etc., and that's what most of them do in. the win ter.'
 Not that it seemed perfectly logical to us so we waited in silence for the manager to proceed.
 "As to the training camp, he con tinued. we like 1t fine. The hotel fare is better than most of the boys get at home, and then, too. we are pay ing all expenses. The boys are provided with uniforms. Most of them have bats They wear the uniforms on the field and not on the streets as they lsed to when they played at home. Then, too, there are a few gloves scattered about among the players. but as these are their personal property. I dislike to discuss them. You might be surprised to hear it, but We are using the regu- lar official ball in practice and s yet no sport humorist has suggested thas we supplant them with oranges.
 
 "Some of the fellows are not in mid season condition as yet This could hardly be expected however when you consider they have played but d few games since the last season ended. am going slow with them, ami they will probably get into condition be- fore long. Some of them may get sun burned. but those who are not married undoubtedly have cold cream with them l wouldn't be surprised either if an oc- casional sore arm developed or some one sprung a Charlie horse. You wouldn't expect anything else, how ever as they naturally use their arms when throwing and have to run lit- tie when chasing flies.
 Our new material is the most promis- ing we have ever had. There is John son. for instance. He certainly seems to be a conner. Yesterday when I asked him to warm up Grimes, he picked up his init just as If he had seen one before and I've noticed that he puts his mask right over his face He has the best hit ting position I ever saw. He always uses a bat instead of board, and stands right beside the plate. All of our other players have the saIhe style and there- fore, I look for a great hitting club The fielders too look good. None of them as yet have failed to carry their gloves to their positions and they invariably

That Robert II. Baugh would accept was received yesterday by his host of friends in the city with qualification as it had been feared that the local head of the Bnrons would be firm in his orig inaI determination not to accept the honor If rendered of succeeding the late ". NJ. kavanaush
 By this is not meant that President Baugh is an active candidate for the presidency of the Southern league. as MT. Baugh persistently refuses to enter the race. The only satisfaction MT. Baugh will give his many friends and ardent adherents Is that he will accept the honor if he is elected. But as for seeking the presidency, MT. Baugh prefers to let the ambitious young men of the league attend 10 that.
 Tn the last issue of the Sporting News that well known baseball weekly, depre- cates editorially the unseemly scramble to succeed the late President ". M. Kav- anaugh The editorial in part follows:
 Doubtless each man whose name IS advanced IS capable ol illlDS the office, but the eagerness of his par tisans to boost him suggests a per- sonal ambition rather than the first thought given to the best interest of the league in general.
 Tt has been q long while since the Southern league had president other than kavanaugh, but not so long that memories are not still fresh of the sorry experiences under some of them. It would be we'll that the club owners bear these experiences in mind in choosing a new head.
 How many of the candidates named have consistently stood for the good of baseball in general rather than for the individual club advantages or personal interest? What is the record of each man in baseball? On his record can he be picked as a worthy successor to the judge?
 These are the questions that should be considered before a new Southern league head is named, and if they are given fair consideration we fancy certain candidates prominently men
