HITLESS BASEBALL.
Remarkable Record That Was Made
by Cy Young In 1904.

Remarkable Record That Was Made
by Cy Young In 1904.
The proud record for pitching con-
secutive innings Of hitless baseball is
held by no less a parsonage than the
Hon. Denton Tecumseh Young Of
blessed baseball memory. Mr.. Young,
better known rs "Cy." is the holder OF
several records in unusual fcats in the
pitching line.
1t was back in April. 1904. tina,
Young proceeded to shatter all figures
in this line, and before he got through
he had created n new record in hurling
hitlcss ball and one which stands to-
day clean CUT and without Il spot Oh
blemish and without doubt the great
est piece Of pitching the game ever
Witnessed
On April 50 against the Washington
team Young took Winters place in the
third inning no one out, and pitched
out the game, retiring the next twenty
one batsmen in order. YOungs next
game took place May ; against the
Athletics. Cy pitched the best game
of his long and honorable career that
day and retired twenty-seyen of those
famous sWatsmcn of Connie Mack in
a row. In game against Detroit on
May II Denton T. pitched his famous
fifteen inning l to game against the
Tigers, and in the first seven innings
Young set them down without a base
hit
This would give Cy twenty three
innings of hitleSs ball, or, in other
words, as far as the records show, six
ty-eight batsmen stepped to the plate
and were retired in succession. In that
same period the big Ohioan pitched
forty-eight consecutive innings where
in his opponents failed to get a run
across the plate. After his great no
hit-no run game against the Athletics
he pitched fifteen innings of runless
ball, rs mentioned, against the Tigers
with Ed Killian opposing him. 1t was
battle royal, and the clever Killian
met defeat by a score Of to O.-New
York Sun.

Mr.. WILSON YIELDED PART
LY TO FEAR, PARTLY TO
HOPE OF POLITICAL
PROFIT.

President Wilson yielded to
the dictation of the heads of the
Br0therhOOdS, and made no eff
fort to find out whether the de
mand was right or wrong. He
made no effort to find out Whetll-
er it could be complied with
without raising freight rates. He
made no effort to find out all
the equities in the case; those
affecting the men, those affect
inc the stockholders, those at
fecting the shippers. He took
his orders from that one Of the
Darties in interest which he
most feared. He insisted that
the law be passed without in
auiry. And then he deferred the
oDeration of the law until after
election, which, of course, could 4
only have been done for political
reasons. :" The question
at issue was not that Of an eight
hour day at all. Inc question
was whether President and Con-
cress should enact law, with
out investigation and without
knowledge. to give increased
wages to a certain portion OF
the body of wage earners. The
labor leaders on this issue, with
out regard to the right or wrong
of the matter, first cOerced the
President. and then with his aid
coerced Congress. The question
at issue was not one of the hours
Of labor. 1t was one OF wages.
And il was settled by the Iresi
dent and Congress without in
vestigation and without kncwl-
edge. The settlement was due
partly to fear, and partly to hope
of political profit.-From the
Speech of Colonel Roosevelt at
Battle Creek, Michigan. in Be
half of Mr.. Hughes.
