the Pirates now hold lead of 81

AZ games remaining on its scheduls,
New York must win 20 of its 80
games yet to be played to tie the

GAINESVILLE EASY
University City Team was Handicap

Fourteen
lL. T. ID

(L. T. II
Gainesville played in hard luck yes
terday when she came to Ocala with a
weakened team and tried TO play
against our new combination. They
were short a pitcher so they sent to
Georgia for a highly recommended
man and when he came they were
still short pitcher. His name is
Theus. | rather expect he las chang
ed it by now. GIcala got two doubles
and four singles off him in the first
inning, which coupled with two sacri-
fees, base on balls and couple of
errors netted us six runs. He was
conspicuous by his absence in the Sec
ond inning and our old friend Strick-
land appeared In the box to do the
best he could against us. The Gaines
vile fans said they were compelled to
come down yesterday with two or
three players represented by substi-
tutes, but they will be in better form
for this afternoons game.
The home boys played good ball
yesterday in spite of the fact that
they had a wallS-away Harry Wood
caught good game and stopped two
would-be runs at the plate by his
ability to tage the runners when he
got the ball. Harry steps into the
biggest of them without ever batting
an eye. Harry also stepped lively
around the bases when ne poled out a
three-bagger.
Taylor, Clements, Harris, Liddell
and Smith for the visitors each got
credit for a two-bagger. Joe Brooks
led the team all bat yesterday with
five hits out of five times at bat and
stealing four bases. Clements fol-
lowed well along with him by getting
three hits out Of three attempts. Lid
dell got three out of FIVE.
Elrod pitched a good game, allow
ing seven hits, but three of them were
of the infeld scratch variety and were
hits by the skin of their teeth. One
very amusing play of the game oc-
Cured in the sixth inning. Liddell
made an attempt to steal third and
had to slide in. The third baseman
had the ball before Liddell got there
and tagged him. The umpire called
him out but the ball failed to come
back into play The third basemar
looked foolish and looked all around
him for the ball but failed to see it
1t occurred to Liddell about this time
that the baseman had dropped the bal
so he also looked for it. 1t allied te
shop up so Jimmie lit out for home
Strickland ran over to third and
found the ball under the sack where
Jimmie's foot had kicked it in his
slide. Strickland threw to the plate
to catch Liddell but failed to make the
play in time.
When Smith hit his two-bagger il
was almost good for three-bases. In
deed it might be termed a three
bagger although the throw to third
was wild. When the ball passed third
Smith ran for the plate. but he mis-.
calculated on Elrod. That pitcher OF
ours was backing up third and re,
trieved the ball in time to catcf
Smith at the plate.
The same two teams will battle this
afternoon and there is promise of 8
much better game than yesterdays
attempt. Henry Gray viii twirl fol-

Great Britain Confident Meetings Will Prevent

LEADERS HOPEFUL,
Henderson States Action Will Make Use Of Force
 By Britain Needless

LONDON. Aptril 9.--(By the Asso- ciated Press)-The coal mine strike. which threatened to carry with it strike of the railway men and trans port workers. seems to be in a fair way of settlement through negotia- tion.
 After all day conferences and in- terviews, when it was supposed that all efforts to move the miners had proved intellectual. it was suddenly an nounced that the miners had yielded and that a conference with the coal ow~rs had been convened for Mon day
 Notices were sent to the mining dis tricts urging abstention from acton that would interfere with measures for the safety of the mines.
 The only explanation available as to what inducements were offered the miners to remove their objection, to assenting to steps assuring safety of the mine owners property is the statement of Frank Hodges. secretary of the miners union-"the conference was arranged internationally"
 Whether the rumors that the gov ernment is willing that the wage ques- tion should be adjusted on nat,onaI basis may be held to explain the change in the situation is unknown. If. as Hodges suggested. the govern ment and mine owners have agreed to an unconditional conference. that would be sufficient to induce the min CTS to yield the pumping point. In any case. the unexpected agreement gives the liveliest hope that coun- try-wide tie-up will be averted.
 Arthur Henderson. labor leader. al- though not personally concerned in today's meeting with Premier Lloyd George, was tonight full of confidence that there would be no general strike Tuesday.
 The legislative committee of the triple alliance, after conference with the premier. issued this statement to- night:
 Ut has been agreed that: The gov ernment shall summon a conference of representatives of the miners fed eration and the coal owners Monday, and the miners federation shall to- night issue notices to the federation's branches, urging miners to abstain from action interfering with measures necessary for ensuring the safety of
