.JOHNSON REFUSES BISTATEJ, COBB (And Baseball Strike Is Probable. Great Outfielder Assaulted a Fan. (National News Association) CINCINNATI, O., May 18 Dan Johnson, president of the American baseball league, today refused to reInstate Ty Cobb, the Detroit outfielder, and announced that if the Detroit players carried out their strike threat they would be punished by fine or suspension. PLAYERS ARE FIRM. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 18. The final decision to strike and play no 'more baseball games until Ty Cobb is reinstated was reached by the Detroit team here today. Manager Jennings jheld a secret conference with the players at the Aldine hotel in an attempt ,to make the players reconsider their determination. He failed and when the 'meeting adjourned at noon the players announced they would not play unless Cobb rejoined them. "UNIONIZED BASEBALL." PHILADELPHIA, Pa., "May 18. "Unionized baseball," may result from the strike of the players on the Detroit American league team, who have thrown down the gage of battle to the powers that be, because of the suspension of Ty Cobb, for trouncing an Insolent fan in New York on Wednesday. After sending an ultimatum to President Ban Johnson of the American league the Tigers sent out appeals to every club In the American league ito stand by them. The same are urging a sympathetic strike. A meeting of the Detroit players and members of the Athletics has been called for tomorrow to form a protective association. , Organized baseball today faced the more serious situation since its inception and the magnates of the American league were using every means in their power to prevent disaffection from spreading further. It was believed the Tigers would take the field this afternoon against the Athletics, but only long enough to allow the first Philadelphia player to bat. This would save the club's franvsa Kut wmilil moon a fine nf SI. 000. Vllltl' vui. .. w t . . . . ------ The strike was hit hard at the financial side of the sport and comparatively few tickets had been sold for today's game up to the time when the seat sale rush is usually at its heaviest. Ban Johnson adopted the "mailed fist" attitude, according to dispatches rfrom Cincinnati, declaring that the prestibe of power must be maintained. On the other hand, the players declarlng that the prestige of power must "be maintained. On the other hand the players have adopted the most stubjborn attitude ever witnessed in baseball and assurances from members of other teams that they are right in strengthening them in their determination to fight to a finish. The Tigers maintain that they are contending for one of the most vital principles in baseball protection of players from Insults. Following the conference of the players during the forenoon it was stated that until word was received of the I reinstatement of Cobb the Tigers would probably line up against the Athletics this afternoon with Hughey Jennings, Jim McGuire and seven local semi-professionals filling the positions. "We are not making this fight for Cobb alone," said Delhanty of the Tigers, "but it is forced upon us by the realization that if we don't get together soon we won't have any rights."

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, SATURDAY MAT 18, lDis.

KING RECOMMENDS E But City Health Officer Davis Has Not Yet Placed a New Ban on Dogs. Although the hydrophobia epidemic has apparently taken a serious turn again within the past day or so, Dr. T. Henry davis has made no plans to issue another quarantine order, despite the advice of Dr. J. E. King, the county health officer to the effect that a new quarantine order should be issued at once. Yesterday a shepherd collie, belonging to H. W. Thompson, 134 South Fifteenth street, which was suffering i from rabies, bit a number of dogs be longing to persons living in the eastern part of the city. It also attempted to bite, George Martin, an East Main street grocer. Orders were issued by the police to have the degs owned by George Martin and Mrs. Eli Simmons, which were bitten by the Thompson dog, killed immediately. The owners of the other dogs bitten were ordered to quarantine the dogs for a period of from sixty to ninety days. Following the receipt of a report j from Indianapolis stating that the dog i owned by Mrs.- Anna Jenkins, which bit John Kortwright, 509 North Nineteenth street, May 6, had been infected with rabies, Dr. J. E. King instructed Kortright to go to Indianapolis immediately where he will be given the pasteur treatment. Considerable anxiety is felt by the county health officer about Kortright's condition and he will be given the treatment immediately upon his arrival at Indianapolis. WILL B'EJAST GAME Richmond-Miamisburg Mixup t6 Attract Big Crowd. It is expected Athletic park wjll be packed Sunday to witness the game between the Richmond and Miamisburg teams of the K. I. O. league. These two teams clashed at Miamisburg last Sunday, the Buckeye outfit winning by a score of 7 to 6. Last year Miamisburg won the K. I. O. league pennant, losing only three games the entire season, a wonderful record. The team lines up this season about the same as it did last year, and the Quakers will have to travel at a lively clip to down the visitors. Betts, a former Cotton League player, or Johnson will officiate on the slab for the locals, while the visitors will work one of their two star pitchers, Williamson or Werner. The game will be called promptly at three o'clock. Results of the CincinnatiNew Y'ork National League game will be received at the park by inning. The lineup tomorrow follows: Richmond Feldhaus, If; Smith, cf: Stupp, ss; Martin, 2b; Stines, 3b; Schatell, rf; Powell, lb; Boll, c; Johnson, p; Betts, p.

It Was Tuned to Play a Costly Air For Banker Fould. Rachel, the famous actress, did not neglect any means of turning a more or less honest penny. In his new life of her Francis Gribble tells the following story of a guitar: Rachel first saw and admired It In an artist's studio. "Give it to me," sne said. "I want to pretend that it Is the guitar on which I earned my living as a street singer." The jest seemed a pleasant one, and the artist handed over the instrument. Rachel embellished it with ribbons and hung it in her own apartment, where it duly attracted the attention of Achille Fould. the banker. Hearing its story, he expressed the wish to possess it. "Very well," said Rachel, "yon can have it for a thousand louis." "Five hundred," said the banker, trying to bargain. "No, a thousand," said Rachel, expressing her disdain for those who haggled. And the banker actually paid a thousand louis for the worthless knickknack. It is said that be learned the tenth when be tried to sell his treasure at the Hotel Drouot and that the discovery of the hoax nearly sent him Into a fit on the floor.

ITALIAN VICTORY ANNOUNCED TODAY (National News Association) ROME, May 18. The victory of the Italian soldiers over the Turks on the i Island cf Rhodes resulted in the capture of two batteries of field artillery, two mitrailleuse batteries, 40,000 rifles, forty boxes of ammunition, ten boxes and a thousand bags of provisions, it was officially announced by the war department today. The Theaters BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. One of the favorable "signs of the times" is the interest all classes take in good clean sport. This has been testified to this week at the Murray where Odiva has been giving an incomparable exhibition of the art of swimming with three amateur contests taken part in by young people of the town. Last evening two "capacity" houses packed the theatre to witness the finale and the presentation of the cups, and that any form of athletics arouses enthusiasm was indicated by the overwhelming applause that greeted the performances of the amateurs which were surprising exhibitions of grace and skill, the practice and training received in the local Y. M. C. A. swimming pool being in evidence. Tremendous applause greeted each entrant and his aquatic manouvres, Paul Brehm, who won the cup for high diving on Wednesday night being accorded the fabled ovation in the repetition of his expert exhibition of this form of water acrobatics last 'night. That he was a favorite was shown by his selection for the bestowal of the second prize presented last night by Dr. J. A. Conkey a pair of silver-backed military brushes. The contestants last evening were, in addition to Brehm, Daniel Thompson, who won the cup on Monday night. Robert Heiger, Clarence Blue and Albert Smith, of College Corner, the latter furnishing the comedy element of the affair which he took in the greatest good nature, his gameness and good sportmanship being recognized with trAnendous appreciation. "Local color" is always a heavy asset in any theatrical or athletic exhibition and the fine showing made last evening by these young men, both in the swimming art and in their sportsmanlike qualities was a thing to hearten the optimist. John T. Young who won the cup for his superiority in both the. swimming and diving phases of the contest was the "coming man" from the start and there was no mistake in the temper of the audience's desire when the contestants were lined up for the a wards. The addition of the second prize presented by Dr. Conkey gave diversity to the affair and its bestowal on Brehm was a foregone conclusion after his diving act. Both Blue and Heiger gave excellent exhibitions, Heiger's pose for the "mermaid's prayer," being the best for the evening and eliciting much applause. The comparisons incident to the contest, in the amateur entries for some of the professional's most difficult feats, were an object lesson in water acrobatics and an illustration of the extreme skill and talents of the latter. The cups presented are of 6ilver, gold-lined and cost $21.50 each being engraved vth the words. "Winner of the Odiva Swimming and Diving Contest, 1912." The appearance of Odiva in this city has given a great impetus to interest in this sport and is significant of the good feeling that can and should be engendered between amateurs and professionals. DarrodiT Superstitions. Daffodils are not only poisonous and libelous, but most unlucky flowers, especially when single specimens are encountered. Herrick. who must often have gone through the experience without much harm happening, declares that When a daffodil I see Hanging down her head to me. Guess 1 may what I must be. First. I shall decline my head: Secondly. I shall be dead; Lastly. safely buried. In Herrick's own Devon to this day if you place a single daffodil on the, table of a farmhouse the farmer will Jump up and exclaim, "Now we shall have no young' docks this year." The evil spell can be broken by increasing the single flower to 'a bunch. St. James Gazette.

CopTrictt. 1S12. WAS TOO PROUD TO WORK WIFE STATED Mrs. Clawson Divorced from Man Who Thought He Was Above Shop Men. A tale of blighted love filled with pathos, and a husband's slavery to strong drink, was recited to Judge Fox in the Wayne circuit court this morning by Mrs. Flora Clawson, in her plea for a divorce from Charles Clawson. With a sobbing voice, Mrs. Clawson told the story of her married life and asked to have the marital ties whicu bound her, broken asunder. Judge Fox granted her a divorce. She was also given the custody of their four children. The Clawsons, who reside In Cambridge City, were married in September, 1891, and separated only two months ago, because, the plaintiff alleged, the defendant would not support her and their four small children. Mrs. Clawson declared that the defendant was a habitual drunkard. For the past two or three years I have been obliged to make the living for myself and the children and also to assist in supporting the defendant," testified Mrs. Clawson. "I canvassed for a number of business bouses, soliciting orders and delivering goods. On more than one occasion I would come home after a hard day's work and find my husband, lying on the couch in a drunken stupor. "I asked him if he would not work," continued the plaintiff, "and he declared that he could not find any work. I then told him .that it would be better to work in a shop than to do nothing. He declared that he had never worked in a shop and that he would do nothing rather than to do such work. I asked him if he believed he was better than show men and he said 'yes. " Clawson formerly was a saloon keeper in Cambridge City. When he was placed on the stand the Judge asked him if the plaintiff's story were true. "Not all of it," was his answer. "I believe it is," said the Judge, and granted the decree. REPORT ON TAYLOR IS NOW COMPLETED The special investigating committee recently appointed by the mayor to investigate charges preferred against the marketmaster, Mr. John Taylor, held its final meeting at the home of Councilman Jesse Evans, chairman of the committer, lr.st night, and drew up a report, which will be submitted to council next Monday night. The report, states Mr. Evans, vvill necessitate Taylor making a vigorous effort to answer the charges o incompetency. Mr. Taylor will probably be present to answer the charges made by the committee which for three weeks has been probing records of his activities since his appointment as marketmaster. Some of the testimony is said to be very sensational, charging the inspector of weights and measures with gross neglect of duty as prescribed by law. COMPLAINT FILED Complaint in partition of real estate was filed in the Wayne circuit court this morning by Joseph Cj Gehr, versus his son. Noble L. Gehr. The plaintiff was the husband of the late susan Gehr and the defendant the only commissioner be appointed to sell it child. Property was left by the late Susan Gehr in East Germantown, and the plaintiff asks that a commissioner be appointed to sell it and make the proper distribution. The plaintiff alleges that he is entitled to one-third while the defendant is entitled to the residue. SHIYELEX TO SPEAK LIBERTY. Ind., May 18.

Shiveley, of Richmond, past grand chancellor of the Knights of Pythias of the 'world, to deliver the memorial address. The date for the services has not been set, as yet.
