IS GIVEN JUDGMENT
Miss Irene Laing Against Her
bert A. Streeter
FOR THE SUM OF $79,904
Last Yar She Received a Judgment
of $100,000 Against Vincent C.
Price Misuse of Funds is the
Charge.
CHICAGO, June 20. Miss Irene
Laing, daughter of Cuthbert W.
Laing, was given a judgement for
$79,904 yesterday in Judge Pickney's
court against Herbert A. Streeter of
Evanston, . 111. A year ago she re
ceived a judgement of $100,000 against
Vincent C. Price. Both Mr. Streeter
and Mr. Price, signed bonds for Mr.
Laing when Miss Laing, his daughter
was a minor. She was left valuable
real estate at the death of her mother
Mr. Laing's alleged misuse of the
funds intrusted to. him as guardian of
the property was the cause of the
suits by his daughter.
When Miss Laing who now resides
at Ann Arbor, Mich., became of age
in 1904, she signed a release to her
father. This was set aside by the
court, which held that it had been
secured under duress. It was shown
that most of the real estate had been
lost through real estate investments.
The court held that Mr. Laing and
the necessary consent of the court
had been obtained to make the trans
fers for the minor daughter.
An attemt was made to bring Mr.
Laing into court by the atorneys re
presenting Miss Laing. He refused
to come, sending a telegram from
Toledo, Ohia, where he now resides,
that he would not appear in behalf
of Mr. Streeter.
Judge Pinckney instructed the jury
to return a verdict for Miss Laing.
Mr. Streeter, the defendant in the suit
is 74 years old. (

American League's Crop of Re
cruits Better Than In Years.
CLASSY PITCHERS NUMEROUS
Manning, Vickers, Burns, Chech and
Summers Have All Twirled First
Class Ball Several Catchers Look
Good Infielders and Outfielders.
Many. Indeed, were the young base
ball phenonis picked up by the Ameri
can league scouts last season. In par
ticular the number of clnssy pitchers
that were gathered was remarkable.
i-t.f ' . I At . '
vuiaiue oi ,uicago mere was not an
American league club that did not suc
ceed In pulling lu u star pitcher as the
result of the dragnet that was thrown
out last year.
Of the pitchers, Manning, Vlckers,
Summers and Burns have looked the
best, though It Is possible that others
are Just as good, but have lacked the
chance to display their ability. This
is particularly true of the Cleveland re
cruits, Lattlmore and Chech.
Manning, the New York find, has the
best record of any, he having won five
out of the first six games pitched.
ickers has been the Athletics' win
ning pitcher this season. Burns, the
Los Angeles left bander that Cantlllon
of the Washington picked up, has
proved to be a phenomenal youngster.
True, he has lost a few games, but
that was because things broke badly
for him, and it was not as much his
'ault as that of his team mates. . i
Summers, the fourth of the galaxy1
of star youngsters, has made a most!
favorable Impression wherever he has
performed, lie was Detroit's winning-
pitcher at the start of the season and !
then had to "lay off" in consequence of !
twisted ankle. I
Vickers is not the only ripe young ;
nger that Connie Mack picked up. i
.'arter and Schlitser have done excel-!
nt work for the Athletics, and Max
well did well enough to keep him on
Connie Mack's payroll.
Graham has been the only youngster
tried out by McAleer this season, but i
he has proved very effective against
ertaiu teams, and if he is not worked
o often he looks as if he would go
the route All right.
Cicotte and Burcbell of Boston are
only fair. Cicotte was touted as a
wonder after he succeeded in downing
the New Yorks, but his famed "knue-
klo ball" has been easy for Boston '
opponents since then. Burcbell ii.
dently Is not right yet, for be bat not
shown the form that he did with Balti
more. '
The other young pitchers that have
been retained on the payrolls are Ura
ncy of Cleveland, Lake of New York,
Cure of .Washington. Malloy and Suggs
of Detroit nnd Treeman of Chicago.
Malloy looks fairly well, while Suggs
has not rounded Into shape. Cates Is a
warm weather mau and has not done
anything astonishing. Freeman has
not had a trial, and Graney is now out
of the game with a broken finger.
The young catchers that were landed
are Davidson of Cleveland, Sid Smith
of Philadelphia. Street of Washington.
Blue of St. Louis, Blair of New York
and Carrlgan of Boston. Carrlgan has
been tried before, but Is doing better
work than when with Boston two
years ago. Davidson. Blue and Swee
ney have not been tried, while Blair
has caught but two or three games lu
consequence of the excellent work done
by Klelnow.
The best two of the lot, however,
seem to be Smith of the Athletics and
Street of Washington. Street has bat
ted hard, nnd Smith has also carried
off his share of the honors with the
stick. Each has performed creditably
behind the bat.
The new Infielders are Atz of Chi
cago, Klllifer of Detroit, Perrlng of
Cleveland, Ball of New York, McCon
noll and Lord of Boston, McBride and
Freeman of Washington. The two
"live ones" In this bunch are Ball and
MeConnell, with Lord a fair third.
McConnell has proved to be a fast
fielder ard a sensational batter, lead
ing the league In hitting for a couple
of weeks. When Elberfeld was spiked
Ball was called upon to go to short.
Elberfcld's absence has not been felt
in the least, Ball doing' some sensa
tional fielding and timely hard hitting.
Lord In said to be almost as fast as
Tlioney in getting .down to first base.
Atz has done nothing wonderful for
Chicago, but has fielded acceptably.
Klllifer has had but two chances to
show what he could do, but his bat
ting more than made up for his errors.
Perrlng, who Is always slow to get
started, was only fair nt first, but
later he was fielding splendidly, and
Cleveland Is sure to retain him ns util
ity inflelder. McBride has been up In
the big leagues. He Is a weak batter.
Freeman is a good first sacker, but
will not break up the league with bis
batting.
"As for the outfielders, there are sev
eral new men that are sure to be car
lied all year as regulars. Foremost
among them are Josh Clarke of the
;iaps and Thoncy of Boston. Clwke
Las proved to bit a good man to' lead
off the batting order for Cleveland,
while Tboney's batting ability and
speed have made him very popular
with the fans .of the Hub. Gossler,
Cravoth and Mcllalo have done fairly
well for McGulre, but Thoney has per
formed much better In every way.
The other youngsters that are still
on the American league payroll are
Pitcher and Utility Man Crtas and
Outfielder Schweitzer of St Louis,
Outfielder Moran of Philadelphia and
Utility Man Eddie Collins of the same
team. Collins, however, has been car
ried by Mack for two years.

Cincinnati Club's President Says His
Team Will Land In First Division.
, "I iK'lleve with Manager (ianzel that
the Cincinnati Bed will go cast early
In June In thu first division.
"The team is playing splendid ball
now despite its handicap of compara
tively little spring practice.
"There ought to tie gradual ami nat
ural Improvement during the next
three weeks, with a sufficient number
of victories to place the team on the
sunny side of the .500 mark."
This is the optimistic view which
President Herrmann takes of the
chances of the Beds to give their fol
lowers a run for their money lu the
earlier part of the present campaign.
"We will have the eastern tenuis for
our opponents for nearly three weeks,
and it is at the expense of the Atlantic
const section that we hope to get
at... a l M a,....- .... .
among me firm lour, continue aire
Herrmann.
"I have been watching the work of
the eastern teams closely ever since
the season opened, and I have failed
to see where any one team has been
doing anything out of the ordinary,
With the New Yorks it's mostly Math
ewson. Boston has been Improved'
by the addition of Bowerman, but the
general work of the pitchers does not
appear to be more effective than last
season. 1
"The Philadelphia have secured a
bad start 'for a team that la so highly
touted, and their opportunities for Im
proving in their work while they are
on the road will be extremely limited.
Brooklyn will miss Strlcklott and Al
ponnan and does not strike me as be
ing particularly strong In the outfield.
"Altogether the prospects for the
Reds doing some climbing between
now and the 1st of June seem to me
to be exceedingly bright."
