1 batting outfit, Caldwell won 10 games and
dropped IL.
To show his worth he faced walter
johnson but twice and suppressed walter
on both occasions.
To show what he was UP against, take
the Yanks' first Western trip. on that
| journey Caldwell pitched fine ball. But
his mates went "a innings without scoring
a tally for hlm--over six complete games.
Finally Caldwell scored run himself, and
beat Detroit to o.
| But he lost six games where he should
have won at least four This season, with
Magee, Baker, Gedeon and others to bat
in few tallles, the Yank star should give
| Walter johnson an even fight. He has
his chance now, IL the Yank attack is as
robust as 1t should be, to wage a keen
battle for the pitching lead.
! For he has the three main requisites of
pitching-the stun, how to use It and the
heart. Considerable combination.

At this mornings session Of the

asked that ordinance No. 200,
which places the hospital in the
hands of the commissioners, abolish
ing the Medical Board and Hospital
staff, be amended, thereby placing
the medical end of the hospital In
the hands of a Medical staff After
explanations were made on both
sides, IL appeared that the commits
sioners and physicians were each
laboring under the wrong impress
sion. The commissioners explained
that their reason for taking the ac-
tion disapproved of was because 1t
appeared to them that the physicians
had too much leeway with the n
nances, and it was to keep down ex-
penses that the Medical Stan and
BOARD of Trustees we're abolished .
The physicians explained that 1t was
NOT their desire to handle the tinan
ces. but they do wish to retain con
troll of the nurses, the nurses schoo
and all matters pertaining to tn
medical end of the hospital. Afte

HOSPITAL UP FOR
DISCUSSION; Three
MEETINGS OF
COMMISSIONERS

The City Commissioners met in
regular session last night, and after
long session they adjourned until
this morning when a special session
was held and also another this af-
ternoon.
Matters coming before the body
last night included the erection Of a
city market, city's road tax and
matters of Sanitation.
Mr.. w. X. McRae appeared before
the commissioners relative to his
proposition looking to the establish
ment of a city market on Pine street
where the Sunnyside Hotel stands.
He desires certain concessions from
the city. After discussion, the mat
ter was laid over until there is full
meeting of the board.
w. P. Pillans was appointed to
check up the county tax books to as
certain the city's amount of the
road tax.
Matters of health and sanitation
were discussed, and it was decided
to have the city attorney draw III
an ordinance which will give the
city health officer the power to make
regulations at any time he may se'
fit, which, upon approval of the com
missioners will become effective thu
same as though an ordinance, cover
ing same, were drawn. This move
it is claimed, will save the taxpay
) ers much money, as heretofore whei
; any health suggestions were offered
an ordinance covering same had I
; be drawn and published before sad
requirements became a law.
