|O|Ck RUDOLPH THINKS
BRAVES WILL REPEAT

New York. Feb. 2S.---Dick Rudolph
the author pitcher, OF them there iSos-
ton Braves, takes his pen In hand to
inform the gasping multitude that:
! "Of course. every one expects me
ito predict that the Braves will re-
peat al pennant winners in 1915, SO
u won't disappoint anybody. I'll say
that the Braves will repeat. and I'll
so farther by saying that the Braves
Will capture another worlds cham
pfonship in October"
Gosh, we hope that johnny Tener.
boss of the National League, doesn't
read the above. Tener is a humane
sort of fellow and IL he read what
DICK had to say he'd award the PEN
nant to the Braves right away and
save the players on the seven other
teams from spending the whole sum
mer In fruitless endeavor. And then
what would the National League fans
do for diversion this summer

Using His Dome.

THE arm OF Chris Nathewson Is
gone" remarks one National League
ball player. That may be true. but
Chris hasn't lost his dome. People
around certain parts of the country
think Chris has been pitching with
his arm for the last two of three
pears That's an optical Illusion.
The old-time power and cunning
left Natty's arm a few years ago
and Chris has been pitching with his
head ever since for an average around
700. So you see even though Mat.
" has lost his arm he will be listed
among the 1913 Giant pitchers.

of the
Seas.

Germany has been warned that
America claims free Seas, and
Eng land has been notified that
neutral shipping must be free. A
united front to oppose all aggres.
sion from whatever direction it
may come, is the prevailing
theory at Washington.
The German note was found
fatty unsatisfactory as it deliber.
ately avoids the real issue; while
England accepts the issue, but
denies it's force claiming Amer
ican precedents for the blockade
ofneutral ports. England asserts
that during the Cival war, the
Federal Government declared a
practical blockade against neut.
raj ports, and cites this as a pre-
cedent. The question will be
threshed our through the regular
diplomatic channels. However.
1t IS very pressing question
which requires Il prompt reply,
as it is vitally affecting American
shipping.
The American Government, es-
pecially since the appointment OF
Secretary Lansing is firm in its
demands of freedom of the seas
for neutrals.

Mexico.

The President has received
from Mr.. Lansing no new infor
nation on the Mexican situation
nor any recommendation AS to
what should be done by the
United States to restore order in
Mexico. The President has not
decided on his next step nor is he
still considering which one of
several suggested steps he shall
take. Nothing further will be
done with the Mexican problem
before the President returns to
Washington and he has told Mr..
Lansing what to do.
For these declarations we have
the authority, III writing, of the
President himself, in a statement
made to the correspondents at
Cornish. In other words 'Watcl :
ful waiting. or at any rate
waiting" is the order of the
day. And thousands of Americ
ans, with property interests
amounting to millions or with
educational and religious enter
prises ofincalculable worth, must
stand by and see themselves and
their properties outraged, pillag-
ed and destroyed; while their
Ouly recourse is to raise their
eyes to Heaven and cry, How
long, 0 Lord. how long?
