soX STILL UNDER ROWLAND.
Is Retained as Manager OF Chicago
American Leaguera.

Chicago, Dec. ao.-Clarence Rowland
was today reappointed manager of the
Chicago White Sox. This announcement
was made at Comiskey Park. 1t has been
suspected all along that Rowland would
get the job again, but various rumors
and hints had kept the fans uncertain.
The reappointment would seem to show
that Owner Comiskey is satisfied with
Rowland's work. He put the Sox in
second place last season and gave Boston
scare up to the final week Of the sea-
son. Injuries to his infield and the fail
ure of certain pitchers to come across
hurt his chances

This statement was made at meeting of the city council by Sir A. 8ower in behalf of the APO licensed Jars contained within these limits. fiis 1gures were based on police court records and an estimate of the number Jf persons working in the city during he day. There are only about 10000 actual residents. In view of this rec ord of sobriety, the saloonmen asked ne council to endorse a petition to the board of liquor control. asking for q relaxation of the present stringent rule The bars pay local taxes amounting to $500. 900 a year, it was said, and they suffer great hardship under the new Jules.
