CLARK RE-ELECTED
SPEAKER OF HOUSE
(Continued from page 1)
While the galleries in the Senate
were specially reserved for the march
rs and their adherents, -no bands or
banners were admitted to the Capi
tol. President Wilson's determination
to read his own message to Congress
tomorrow has completely displaced
the tariff and income tax as subjects
of " chief popular interest. No Presi
dent since John Adams has availed
himself of the right. Congress was
amazed when it heard of the Presi
dent's plan. Some of the old-time
leaders refused to believe it until
Secretary Tumulty personally con
firmed the news.
It was planned that the President
should first go to his room on the
Senate side of the Capitol and later
go to the Hall of the House of Rep
resentatives, where both branches of
Congress will be assembled.
The legislative principles that bind
the House and Senate together were
outlined today. Under ordinary cir
cumstances the joint bodies meet to
gether only every four years and then
only for the perfunctory ceremony of
canvassing the electoral vote.
President Wilson intends to slip
auietly away from the White House
with his message in his pocket and,
attended by probably only one secret
service man, ride to his office almost
immediately. Some of the President's
.friends say he has expected to read
all his principal messages to Con
gress. President Wilson was asked today
what motive impelled him to renew
the custom of a century ago.
"The reasons are very simple," he
said. "I think that it is the only dig
nified way for the President to ad
dress the Houses at the opening of
the session. Instead of sending the
address up by messenger and letting
the clerk read it perfunctorily in the
familiar clerk's tone of voice, I
thought that the dignified and nat-
ural thing was to read it. It is a pre
cedent, which it is true has been dis
continued a long time, but which is
a very respectable precedent.''
The President was asked if he ex
pected that there would be answers
from Congress as there had been in
the old days, but he smilingly replied
that the only response he looked for

There was a time when a small man
had a chance to make good in baseball
as a pitcher, but only big fellows are
wanted for such positions nowadays.
Old time fans will remember when
Kid Carsey and "Wee Willie" Mc
Gill held their own with other major
league stars. They were small even
for the pitchens of those days, but they
would be midgets compared with the
present day crop of curve breeders. So
keen are the managers after six foot
pitchers that they will spend weeks
and months trying to drill a giant into
the rudiments of twirling, whereas
they will scarcely give a second look
to a youth who is under the five foot
eight mark.
If the average height of the twirlers
on any major league team was secured

Major league Magnates Boost
Prices of Admission.
VERY FEW 25 CENT SEATS.
Grand Stand Prices Going Up, and Mo
guls Blame It on the High Cost of
Everything Else Game a Gamble
For Magnates, Says Foster.
By TOMMY CLARK.
When Charlie Ebbets, "president of
the Brooklyn club, made his little
speech on the high cost of baseball, in
connection with his new $750,000 base
ball stadium in Brooklyn, he inadvert
ently, perhaps, started a fire of indig
nation among the fans, which has been
smoldering for a couple of years. Eb
bets says the price of baseball is going
up, makes no bones about it and Inti
mates that the fans must foot the bills.
In other words, they will be taxed
more for seats which formerly cost
them from 25 to 50 cents less. The
Dodgers' owner explains this by say
ing players' salaries have increased
and everything else has gone up too.
In mapping out a plan of recouping
Ebbets has decided that there'll be
fewer twenty-five cent bleachers at his
new stadium, a raise of 50 cents in the
price of box seats besides- and a small
er number of fifty cent seats. Ebbets,
however, isn't alone in the movement
to raise the prices, for supporters of
the Athletics In Philadelphia have seen
their cheap bleachers replaced by
grand stand extensions, and Boston
rooters also have had their twenty-five
cent seats decreased In numbers.
The Giants' management too, has
felt compelled to stretch the grand
stand (at higher prices, of course)
around both sides, and the old time
bleacherite has been steadily pushed
farther away from the home plate.
While the baseball public lets out
long and raucous yells of protest
against the increased cost of the na
tional sport, the magnates are emphat
ic in declaring that higher prices can't
be helped.
The situation that confronts the mag
nates is made known by John B. Fos
ter, secretary of the New York Base
ball club, who has been Identified with
the diamond game for wenty-flve
years. . - . .
"The baseball putjlic little realizes
the tremendous cost of baseball," said
Secretary Foster, discussing the pend
ing movement to raise the admission
icharges in some cities. "Big crowds are
seen at the Polo grounds, and the fans
get the idea that fortunes are made
overnight in the game. But the profits
are not so great when, say, that out of
a crowd of 20.000 probably 2,000 are
deadheads.
"Baseball owners, like other people,
have been" forced to sit back and see
expenses steadilyclimb during the past
twenty years. Take one item alone,
players' salaries. Men like Mathewson,
Cobb and Wagner are paid any way
from 25 to 40 per cent more than the
stars of the Brotherhood days. The In
crease in the wages of the average run
of players is much more. A player get
ting $1,000 twenty years back was
Thought to be welL paid, but the' same
man today is receiving two and three
thousand dollars. Even the minors
have cut in on the higher scale with
an increase of 25 per cent In their
salaries.
"To carry a team through a season
now requires the services o.f nearly
twenty-seven men. In the old days
fourteen and even twelve players were
deemed sufficient The raise In play
ers' wages began when the American
league was created and the resultant
keen competition with the National
league. Teams started to bid against
each other for star players, with the
result that now many are paid bank
presidents' salaries. . Back in 1889 a
team's franchise could be purchased
for about $35,000. but that sum would
hardly buy two players of the Cobb
and Mathewson type now.
"Along with that of the players the
wages of umpires and other officials
were increased 50 and 100 per cent
Then to take up. another item of ex
pense that of transportation. It costs
about 200 per cent more to send teams
around the country now than it did in
the days before the Interstate railroad
laws went into effect Arriving at a
hotel, a baseball manager finds that it
costs $5.50 a day to house each mem
ber of his team. Hotel arrangements
were vastly different In the old days.
"The greatest cost. howevers .that
was saddled on the magnates was the
building of the great stadiums in New
York. Philadelphia. Cincinnati, Cleve
land, Pittsburgh, Boston and Brooklyn.
The fans became very high toned in
their tastes and wanted only their
stands constructed of iron and steel.
Naturally all this costs a great deal of
money.
"This burden proved too heavy, and
the Philadelphia American League
club shortly after the beautiful Shibe
park was "completed was forced to
abolish .the twenty-five cent seats.
This move was taken notwithstanding
the fact that the Athletics have had
i-liiimpiou- teams sipce 1905 and Phila
delphia Is a good baseball city." While
the figures were never given out, it is
believed that the Philadelphia clnb just
barely made expenses during this pe
riod." I ne Beaver.
