Questions at Issue.

The street Car strike has been called off.
Following a conference late today be-
tween the District Commissioners, officials
of the Capital Traction Company and
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany and organizers of the street railway
union it was decided that the men should
go back to work pending arbitration of
the matters at difference between them
and the street railway companies.
Officials authorized to speak for both sides in
this controversy agree that they believe all diff
ferences will be satisfactorily adjusted. The
strike that has been inconveniencing the public
for two days is in reality ended.
The decision to suspend the strike pending
arbitration of difficulties was reached after many
hours of conference, and after officials of the
railway companies had warned the public that
they might in the interests of safety suspend all
service this evening.

companies and at places where strikers
congregated Early this afternoon the
police said splendid order was being

Several reports of fights or other

BRAVES GET COMPTON.

 turned to Organized Ball.

The com mission allowed the claim of the St Louis club for $463.90 salary paid Compton while the case was in litiga- tiOn The commission also ordered the Braves to reimburse the St. Louis club $500 for advance money paid Compton for jumping to the Feds, and gave the Boston club permission to take this amount out of Compton's salary.

BAKERS BIG BAT
 BEATS BROOKLYN
Tanks Show Fans Just How Good
 They Are

New York, April 6.-Remember that smoky Indian summer day on the Polo Grounds during the worlds series of 1911 when J: Franklin Baker caught one of Matty's fade aways on the shoot and dumped the ball into the right field stands for a home run?
 The day before, down in i'hilly, Baker had leaned against one of Rube MarquardS fast ones and hammered out a hurricane homer that alm ost broke Rubes heart. Again in the worlds series of 1913 the Trappe Slugger savagely swung on one of Rube's offerings and carved another home run notch in his stout ashen bludgeon at the expense of the sineWy southpaw.
 We'll the same old Baker and tr e same old bat were on exhibition at Ebbets Field yesterday. But instead of striking a, game-Wrecling blow AGAINST New York he struck one FOR it.,
 It wasn't a home run drive It only was a lusty two-bagger, Out it dynamited a huge breach in the Bro oklyn defense, driving in little Gilhooley with the winning run and putting the Home Run King in posi- ton himself to count With another tally just for good measure. The score:

Witl the baseball season of 1916 now on experts and fans are ex- pressing their opinions relative to the strength of their favorite teams. This season should be one of the best our national pastime has had in several years. This is partly due to the fact that the baseball war is a thing of the past. There being no Federal league this season, interest of the fans will be centered on the American and National league races.

John Doyle, sporting impressario, had wagered hats, canes, automO- biles and loose change on the two pennant races, that he decided to arrange the proper odds for them.
 Colonel Doyle, who is shrewd dopster on his own account, went out into the highways and byways of Sportdom to find just what the lead ing wagerers were offering against each club--not only for first place but for second, third and fourth

they have four stars that are also capable of rare team play.
 Not far behind come Fournicr or Ness and Collins, Terry and Weaver, of the White SoX. with the best ln- field in the American league.
 The race is close enough for sprightly argument. but for all around value we fancy the Big Four operating under the restless leader ship of Stallings
 The Red SoX proved last season against the Tigers that a great de- fensive ball club can beat a great offensive machine. Which is an old story in the annals of the game.
 How about the Mackmen as an offensive machine? Quite so. But il is just as well to remember that the Mackmen also had one of the best defensive machines of the era with Collins, Barry and McInnis kill Ing infield hits and with Plank, Bender Coombs Shawkey, etc, checking or .Wrecking all rival at tacks.

American League.

The Red Sox are rated stouter favorites in the Am erican league than the Braves are in the National The wonderful pitching power of Lannin's club, plus the unusual out field strength, puts this club out in front so far the dope is concerned.
 On account of these two strong de- partm ments, they are only laying to :; against the world champions, which means they are figured with a 40 per cent. chance to hold the top.
 Tigers and White Sox
 Two and One-half to one is offered against the Tigers, who are ranked the second strongest club in the league, mainly on account of the amazing outfield power, headed by
 Cobb, and the fighting spirit Of the
 club.
 The Tigers receive a slight edge , over the White Sox The insid CTS
 ray more attention to pitching
 strength than any other factor and
 with the Shore, Leonard. Ruth, Foster, Gregg, etc.. crowds both Tigers and White Sox back. The White Sox are figured with slightly better pitching than the Tigers, but they are also figured as lacking something in cohesive team play.
 All this in spite of the presence of Collins, Jackson, Fournier and Schalk.
 The Revised Tanks. The Tanks are ranked fourth 8 to 1 is the price against Donovan's re- l edited contingent and to , is l offered that they don't finish third The club is conceded good attack | ing power and first class pitching l squad, but several elements are too uncertain as ypet. No one knows at l this early stage just what the club ] will do with so many new people 1 Jumped together. The dope is that with another years experience in 1 team play the Tanks will be robust 1 factor, with a strong chance to win | for 1917, but it is no easy task to hurl a new lineup into the pennant the l f1st year out.
 St. Louis and Washington
 No great pennant outlook is given to Fielder Jones, although he has two clubs to pick a team from and such stars around as Sisler. Pratt Marsans, Weilman, They are offer ing to i that the Browns don't | finish among the first four. Washington, even with a good , pitching staff, is rated low on ac- 1 count of the weakness of the clubs 1 attack. For example, Johnson last 1 season was the most effective pitcher 1 IF the league and yet rival clubs beat 1 him thirteen times where with only
 fair batting support he would have l lost very few games.

The National League.

In the National league they are willing to lay 11-5 against the Braves, which means that the Braves are figured with a 31 per cent chance to finish first.
 The Braves were picked first for three -Stallings, the pitching strength and the infield.
 Brooklyn and Philadelphia are rated neck and neck. They are lay ing 3 to i against, either to finish first and even money against either finishing second.
 Giants and Cubs.
 Four to one is offered against the Giants, despite the acquisition of Kauff Roush, Rariden and Ander- son.
 The Giants are rated uncertain quantities on account of the pitching staff more than anything else, for this part of the club is an unknown quantity. And there is the feeling, too, that, like other flag winners who have slumped, the Giants have lost their ancient pep and will not be in ciined to make the old drive for the top.
 The Cubs are the main surprise in these odds, for they are laying 10 to i Tinker's club doesn't win out and the first division. Reds Cardinals and Pirates are figured out of it, with cnly bleak chance to win.
