SERIOUS SETBACK is
SUFFERED BECAUSE
OF COLD
Continued from First Page.)

tionals' batting order seems to be very
satisfactory. Milan is a good lead-off
man when he is hitting as he is this
spring, and. of course. there never was
better hit-and-run player in the his
tory of base ball than Eddie Foster.
Judge is just the man to bat third, for
he not only hits the ball HARD, but
he is fast, and when he bunts he stands
a good chance of beating it out. Ear
Der promises to come through as a
cleanup hitter. though, like most
southerners he needs the warm wealth
gan, who has been following, will re-
main in the position, provided he gets
into his batting stride, but should he
fall down in this respect Williams I'M
doubtedly will be moved up to that po-
sition whenever he is in the game.
Walter johnson has conf1ded to Man
ager Griffith that his arm is better
this spring than it has been in sew
eral years, and that he expects to have
one of his most successful seasons.
Griffith was delighted with this in
formation, coming from SO honest a
twirler as Johnson.
johnson told me this morning that
he had never known his arm to be
Griffith. land | am very much pleased
about it, for it means whole lot to
us; but. of course. Walters work has
always been satisfactory"
Johnson took Ed Charity down to
the tennis court. where he was pro-
tected from the wind. yesterday morn
ing at IL o'clock and he took a half
hours workout at good speed--spesd
enough to astonish the young catcher.
Then he took a run around the court,
got up good sweat and, after atten-
ton by Trainer Martin, left for WASH
ington, where he will spend Sunday
with his family.
Eddie Gharritys home run in the
game against Virginia was one of the
longest drives ever made anywhere. He
hit one of Drummond's fast ones so
far that it rolled over the embank-
ment into the prep field. and this, too
with field that was a trifie soegy
Charity is sure to be of value to the
Nationals this summer because he is
good hitter and anything but an
ordinary catcher.
Charity. Shanks. Judge. Jamison
and Sawyer played in both games, and
they were none the worse for it. Judge
needs lots of work yet. for he is still
several pounds overweight and the
weather here has not been such that
he could take good sweats outdoors
and during games. But he is playine
great ball already and he is sure to
improve. and by the time the season
opens ought to be able to give any
first baseman in the league a tussle
for first honors.
If Howard Shanks could hit the wear
round as he does in the spring he would
be wonderful player. Howard is hit
ting mighty hard down here, and the
chances are he will start the season in
some position just because of his hit
ting ability during the early games.
1t Is very likely that in the event of
the day being warmer Griff1th will put
his charges through a hard lot of bat
ting practice tomorrow. He does NOT
want to miss any days hereafter unless
he has to. and it is necessary to keep
the players in action whenever it is
anything like fair weather these days,
because every lick counts now.

Had it not been for a generous col
lection of passes the Redskins scarcely

None of the three pitchers used by
Cleveland was particularly effective.
OF the three Coumbe managed to get
by without being scored upon. but he
did fill the bases and had to have Smith
go to the rescue with a double play.
Failure by Cleveland to take ADVANTAGE
of felding chances accounted for New

Mr.. Fellows Gives Ruling.

The personal property statements,
made to the Detroit city assessors. in
which the Weather residents of the
city told what they should be taxed
as owning, should be turned over to
the board of state tax commissioners
for their review of Wayne county, ac-
cording to an opinion rendered by At
torney-General Fellows for Chairman
Barnes, of the state tax commission.
The assessment rolls in Wayne
county, it seems, are partly based upon
statements in writing, which were
made to the city assessors by the
larger holders of personal property.
The state board was desirous of get
ting hold OF these. but the city asses
sors, II is understood, took the view
that they were confidential communi-
cations and should not be used by the
state board.
Mr. Fellows bases his ruling on the
broad clause In the general tax law,
which says that the state board shall
have access to everything on file with
county, township or municipal Off
GERS. While these statements, he says,
are confidential to a certain extent in
that they can be used only for the pur-
poses of arriving at taxable personal
property.

SUSPENDED FOR FIVE YEARS
Attorney James X. Thompson Found
Guilty Of Malfeasance.

Lansing-With a judgment of sus-
pension from the practice of law in
the courts of Michigan for five years,
beginning August Z, Judge Howard
West, in the Ingham county circuit
court, wound up the inheritance tax
case scandal involving Attorney James
H. Thompson.
Judge Wiest's findings briefly fol-
low:
/. Mr.. Thompson was guilty Of
fraud, deceit and malfeasand in many
cases brought to the courts atten-
tion.
2. Because the original charges
were confined absolutely to four es-
tates and not to all upon which evil
dence was disclosed, the court feels
that discipline for a five-year suspen-
sion is adequate. Had the charges
originally made covered all estates in
which evidence was produced. perma-
nent disbarment would have been the
result.
3. The late Henry NJ. Gardner,
Judge of probate of Ingham county
through whose appointment Mr..
Thompson was given the chance to do
what he did, is absolved from all
blame. Judge Gardner committed
suicide when the inquiry began.

Must Write Name In.

Theodore Joslyn Of Adrian, candi-
date for the republican nomination for
United States senator, will not have
his name printed upon the official bal
lot for the August primary. Joslyn
failed to obtain the required number
of signatures, as careful check by
the state department disclosed the
fact he lacked approximately 800
names. Joslyn filed his petitions late
on July 30 and they were not
checked over until Monday afternoon.
There is nothing to prevent Joslyn
being a candidate as his friends may
write his name on the ballot or he
may supply them with printed stickers,
but such a course has seldom been
satisfactory whether there has been a
contest. The only names to appear on
the republican ballot as candidates for
United States senator will be Charles
E. Townsend OF Jackson and William
II. Hill of Detroit.

spector of small arms practice. As
Major Wells received special authori

inconsistency. General Kirk, upon re
