CALVARY MN 10 MEET.

The Mems Club Of Calvary p. E.
Church will meet IN the church to-
night Addresses VIII be delivered by
several members o. the club, and other
interesting features have been pre-
pared.

players than it is possible for most
managers to secure.
And the players will be in better
physical condition. They have not
been forced against minor clubs. No
big IeagUers like to be trimmed by
the smaller fry and this often results
in putting forth strenuous efforts be-
fore the men are in condition. As it
is, the boys are playing among them
selves and do not mind a slip now
and then.
The present intention of Sox Of
ficials is to carry a small army of
players through the first month Of
the American league season. Some
good prospects have been picked up
and all will be given a thorough trial
before the axe falls.
Outfield material is stronger than
for many seasons. Jackson and Hap
Felsch have their jobs cinched, but
the right field assignment is a fight
between LiebOld, Eldred, Murphy and
John Collins, with Haas an outside
possibility. Eldred and LebOld, be-
cause of their diminutive stature,
which make them good lead-Off tim
Der, are being given especial atten-
ton. Both have been hitting vigor-
Ously and each is a fielder of parts.
1t is an open fight, but more than
an even bet that John Collins will not
again be the regular right fielder.
Neither in fielding nor batting did
Collins come up to expectations in
1916, and his long reign in the gar
den is coming to an end. This is a
blow to some people who were tout
ing Shane as the best OUtfeldeT in
the league, when any close observer
knew such judgment was bunk
Zeb Terry is being groomed as anE
infield UndeTstudy. He is already an
excellent shOrtstOp, and is now being
drilled at second base. With Nc

CUBS HAVE PUNCH WITH BAT
BROOKLYN SHOT TO PIECES
BY Mark Shields

,
It is not expected that Mr.. Mitchell
will win any pennant with his Cubs
the coming season, but in their ex-
hibitiOn work the North Siders ap--
pear to be a much better team than
the one that took the field last April.
The club is hitting the ball viciOusly
against coast league pitching, and
the pitchers out that way are well
along in condition and capable of a
few curves. Right now they are more
pUzzling than were the Phily pitch
ers at the same time last year when
the Cubs fell seven times.
Deal seems to have put consider
able punch into his work and should
brace the infieId, both on attack and
defense. He hit 300 in the Federal
league and repeated last season in
the American assn. He should bat
better than .275 in the National, and,
as batters rate nowadays, that is no
average to be sneezed at.
Pres. Weeghman is said to have
been after Risberg, the sensational
SOx rookie, but was turned down by
Pres. Comiskey yesterday. This has
given rise to the belief that Weegh-
man is convinced Doyle will be out
of the game for some time and he
wants an able man for his place.
Puncture that idea.
The Cubs closed their stay in
Southern California by beating Yer
non, 10 to 4, YeTkes, Deal and Flack
getting three hits each. COnifTey,
the Bronx third baseman, was left
with the Vernon club.
Intelligent training methods are
showing remarkable results for the
new White SOX plan. The players
are advancing much faster than they
have in previous years and by the
time the exhibition game season
pens next Saturday Manager Row

LITTLE CHANCE
OF CHEAP SUGAR
SAYS SPRECKELS

There Is little chance OF any de-
crease in sugar prices during the re-
naming months Of 1917, says the San
Francisco Examiner Of August "a.
II IL not likely that national control
Of sugar will be brought about for
some time. ...'
These opinions and others about the
cost and prices Of sugar were express
ed yesterday by Claus A. Spreckels,
president Of the Federal Sugar Rein
ing Co. Of New York, Spreekels, who
is better known in San Francisco as
Gus" Spreckels, is. here for a short
business trip. Among other things he
said: - H..
Most OF the available Cuban sugar
has been bought up, largely by the
British. II is shipped to England raw,
and am told much Of 1t is used there
in the raw state.
Sugar is exceedingly scarce in the
United States. 1t will be scarce until
the Louisiana crop comes in and until
the beet sugar business commences to
turn out this years crop.
Prices Based on Cuban Sugar
Sugar prices are based on the price
of Cuban sugar, 96 degrees, in New
York. ! see by today's newspapers
that this was 7.46 cents a pound. With
little sugar coming from Cuba, with
our own people ali at the bottom Of
the sugar barrel-so to speak-tell me
how prices can come down radically?
What will be done by the Federal
authorities to control the sugar prices
! cannot say No one knows.
81 have heard reports that a price
of about cents is to be fixed for raw
sugar and 6k cents for graduated.
This, understand, is the maximum.
III this is attempted, It will be radi.
cally different from what has been
done with wheat.
THE government fixes a minimum
price of 81 q bushel for wheat, and II
1t does not sell for that much the gov.
eminent proposes to guarantee the
price. "
Transportation Costs
ION the other hand, the suggestion
is made that the government fix
maximum price for sugar, not, the,
minimum as IL being done with
wheat. The proposals are totally DIFF.
ferent. am not prepared to offer any
argument as to why a wheat farmer
should be guaranteed remuneratiye
return for his wheat and no limit on
the top prices, while beet or cane
raiser should have the maximum fixed
for him.
"If the price Of s cents Is fixed for
raw sugar, the cane sugar Of Cuba
viii not come to the United States;
neither will cane sugar come from
other countries. / cannot see haw
the government can compel Cuban
and other foreign sugar raisers to sell
at the price fixed m the United States.
Z mighty little sugar II coming to
this country that has to be transported
any great distance. For instance, raw
sugar IL cheap IN Java. because there
are no vessels to bring It here.
High freights are having . con
stantly increasing influence on all
shipments, in or out. To show what
freights must be paid / can instance
q shipment of sugar recently made by
US to Marseilles, France. The freight
was 6 cents q pound, or $3.50 a short
ton. The cargo was about 5000 tons.
The freight was $4,000 fol. the trip.
II am sorry to say that / cannot
see any immediate relief in prices and
have tried to explain why according
