THE STURDYLEADERS OF NEW YORK'S BASEBALL TEAMS
Here are the three m«naKer< loading the threw major league teams of New York. Upon their shoulders rests"
. the tack of showing their club 6 the vray to positions of prestige in the National and American League races. Of the
trio oue is about to undergo big league fire us a ieader for the first time—"Bill" Donovan. The two others are sea
soned. They present three different types of leaders. John J. McGruw, of the Giants, Is a forceful, fighting man
ager, who handles his players sternly at all times, but who la not tyrannical. The picture depicts him in a typical
pose, critically watching the work of bis men In the field or at bat. "Bill" Donovan, of the Yankees, is one of the
men who help to make the smile famous. Donovan without his smile Is almost a stranger to "fandom." But above
.lie is shown seriously studying one of the "breaks" In a game. He is a leader who smiles his men to work. Wilbert
, Robinson, of the Dodgers, Is a combination of both. He Is not stern, nor Is he given to smiling all the time. He
prefers to cajole his athletes Into putting forth their best at all times. New York "fans" are anxious to watch which
"system" succeeds during the 1015 races.

were charged for the purpose of de
frauding him. He said that the prices

Boy, Who Is a Minor. Also Charges
That Special Officer Gave Him In
toxicants—Special Detective Is In
the Lockup
Carlisle, April 15.—Carlisle, and in
fact, all of Cumberland county, roceiv*
od a shock wlien it became known that
the police had made nearly a dozen
arrests charging men with being
"bootleggers"— operating an unli
censed and illegal booze joint—but
they got a still greater surprise yes
terday afternoon when Harry Forney,
who as a stoll pigeon and special of
ficer aided in breaking up the illegal
liquor traffic, was served with warrants
charging him with even more serious
crimes. •
Forney was lodged in the Shippens
burg lockup last evening to await a
preliminary hearing. Strangely enough
iomey, according to the police, is
wanted both in this aud Franklin
county. Mary, 15-year-old daughter of
Harry Bigler, is the prosecuting wit
ness in the Franklin county suit. A
somewhat similar suit is pending here
in this county, the prosecuting witness
being a girl under 16 years of age»
Besides, the police say, Fornev has
been served with warrants charging
him with having furnished liquor to
minors. The Franklin county authori
ties already have made a demand here
surrender of Forney, but since
the serious charges are pending against
the defendant in this county officials
are of the opinion that he "first will
be tried in this county.
Forney, when served with the first
warrant, smiled and treated the mat
ter with an apparent spirit of non
chalance. He quickly furnished a
'bond, Constable Kane,' of Sbippens
burg going his surety. When the sec
ond suits were brought and the war
rants served, the Shippenshurg con
stable, hurriedly withdrew as bonds
man and Forney was taken to the lock
up. He will be given a preliminary
hearing to-night or to-morrow.

INCREASE IN MEAT
Big Production on Federal Forest
Ranges Anticipated This Year
B;i Associated Press.
Washington, April 15.—A big in
crease in the production of meat on the
federal ranges this year is predicted
by the bureau of Forestry to-day. Tlio
figures show that the forests will fur
nish forage for 1,983,775- cattle and
horses, 8,747,025 sheep and goats and
64,040 swine. This is an increase over
last year of 92,65*5 in the number of
cattle and horses, but a decrease of
120,881 sheep and goats.
The belief is expressed that the re
cent hitfh price of beef has encouraged
many farmers and former sheep men
to go into cattle raising. It is esti
mated that the federal treasury will
be enriched to the extend of about sl.-
200,000 or an increase of $200,000
over last year by receipts from graz
ing permits.
