lives of county employees" it was
learned from a reliable source to-
day.
Braden recently barred county
employees from taking any action
in politics whatsoever. even when
not actually working at their jobs,
on threat of dismissal.
His order is termed "hypocriti-
cal" by several of the commissions
ers because he was one of the
speakers at the recent Eighth dis

to that he had issued his order
forbidding county employees par

Apple Ship at Sea
With First Cargo;
JOY For Trade

BALTIMORE, Oct. 13.-The
Steamer Winona County today
is on the high seas en- route to
Manchester, England, with 49,
600 barrels of apples in her
hold, the initial shipment of
the fail export.
During the 1882 season,
$4,000 barrels of apples were
sent abroad from this port, and
the fact that this first ship
ment this season is three times
the opening export of last sea-
son is encouraging local ship
ping circles.
Although most of this first
cargo is from the Shenandoah
Valley, some of the apples
came from Maryland and
Pennsylvania. The shipment
will reach Manchester in about

TALKING
IT OVER
BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, July 28.-The boys
i Y tell me something is likely tC
pep in the Giants situation shortly
hope 1t is something more ex-
citing than a pop fly. OF course
what the boys refer to is the Bill
Terry situation, which is speedily
developing into a sinister mystery. l.
he going to manage the Giants next
year, or isn't he?
There can be no doubt but that
the Giants need rebuilding. The
truth Is they have needed rebuild
ing for long time. One reason
they are where they are today is
that there was nobody around who
sensed the impending collapse.
TINE Giants haven't won a pen
A nant in eight years. That's
the longest barren stretch the club
has known since John j. McGraw
won his first championship here
IN 1904. In the last decade the
Giants, once the most magnetic
club in baseball, have dropped to
the level Of unkempt mediocrity.
For a while the presence of Nc
Graw in the dugout and memories
of the past kept interest alive, but
now that is gone, or just about,
Attendance has slumped. Only a
spectacular rush through the clos
ing weeks can keep the management
out Of the red. This threatens to
be the first losing financial season
the Giants have experienced since
the early days of the league.
n
IN short, the situation is acute
\ That's why it is pertinent to ask
What is being done about the fu-
ture? When Bill Terry took the
Job following the resignation of Nc
Grsw he says he was given a verbal
agreement that he would run the
club in 1888. But so far nothing has
been done to make this agreement
official, and in the meantime the
acting manager has been hesitant
to make any vital changes in the
lineup, or consider trades or new
deals. Is the verbal agreement to
be ignored or is there some truth
in the reports that owner Charles
Stoneham is getting ready to step
out?
If Stoneham is planning to sell ]
can understand his hesitancy in
naming a manager who might not
be acceptable to the new owners
Otherwise I can't Especially with
the situation fairly shrieking for
action, and plenty of it. Still, it is
Mr. Stonehams club, not mine. It
is no skin off my schnozzle.
r HEAR now that Terry was sec
l. ond choice as manager. When
McGraw decided to retire he tried
to get frankie Frisch from the
Cardinals. He asked the st. Louis
club to put a price on him, but the
Fordham flash was not for sale. 1t
was then that Terry was called in
and offered the job.
I'm not surprised that Terry took
1t, but I can't understand his &C
cepting verbal agreement. 1
thought he was better business
man than that.
