Notes.

President p. p. johnson has sus-
tanned the decision of Umpire Chill in
the Detroit-Boston game last Saturday.
which was protested by Manager Car
rigan. The umpire allowed q runner to
return TO first after he had collided
with the umpire on the baselne.
The strength of the Giants is in
their offense. They have the batsmen
and they have the base runners. They
haven t one base GUNNER on the team.
Even Catcher Rariden is far from be
ing slow. They not only have no slow
runners, but the runners they have
are exceptionally good. There ism t
man from George Burns, who tops the
batting order. to McKechuie. who bats
No. :, who can t score from second
on anything. In a long season this ad-
vantage of speed counts big, for the
Giants can score runs on fewer hits
than their rivals.
''Ted" Meredith predicts that the
quarter mile record will be set at
figures that will stand for long time
to come when he and DESMOND, the
Chicago university Splinter, compete
at the national championships in Sep
TENDER, Conditions will then be ideal
he thinks, and the race will mean n
lot to the men who run in it. Before
DESMOND equaled Tied 50 record,
Meredith intended to go after the half
mile mark at the A. A. L. meet, but
he is anxious to hold the quarter mile
record and he realizes that DESMOND
has two more years in college.

STATISTICS SHOW CRIMI-
NAILS MADE BY JAILS

CHICAGO.-"The Real Jail Prob
lem" is the subject of a booklet pub
lished by the Juvenile Protective as
ISOLATION in an effort to save victims
of the laws delay. 1t is stated that
about $500 persons are annually sent
to the county Jail and only about 1900
are found guilty. What of the nearly
1000 others. is asked. What of those
who have become jail-birds and suf-
fered the penalty of Imprisonment
because they were too poor to pro
vide bonds? It is stated that $4,000
persons are committed to the house
of correction every year, and that
the vast majority of them are there
not because they have been found
guilty of offenses deserving a house
of correction sentence, but because
they were too poor to pay the small
fines assessed against them.
Discussing this subject, the book
let shows:
In 1913, 50 per cent; in 1912, 50
per cent; in 1911 and 1910, about Sc
per cent of all the prisoners in the
house of correction had been commit
ted solely for the non-payment of
fines. 1t is scarcely necessary to
point out that u ultimately these fines
are paid not only by the men and
their families in suffering and priva-
ton, but also by the taxpayers who
support the institution"
To correct these evils, it is recon-
mended that:
Persons accused of crime should
be placed on probation when unable
to secure bonds.
"A different jail should be used
for persons awaiting trial than the
one for persons sentenced.
"A county jail should be a place of
detention only for the few persons
who cannot safely be released pend
ing trial.
"A sentenced prisoner should be
given an opportunity to work out
doors and chance for improve
ment."
