THE FEDERAL LEAGUE | By HAL SHERIDAN. Despite Organized Baseball's fre- quent outbursts against the Federal league, the outlaws seem to be hold- ing their own. And from recent events it looks as if they can continue the pace. Doubtless it is costing | them a bunch of money but that’s a | different story. One of the strongest signs of the | Federal league’s ability to remain in the game is their apparent indeffer- | ence to Organized Baseball’s advances for a permanent peace. Since the season started three offers to estah-| lish a practical working peace agree- | Feds. At least this is what Robert B. Ward says, and the Tip Top owner ought to know. At any rate, is it known that peace conferences, of a sort, have been held between the two organizations in the past few weeks. Further it is no secret that nothing has come of these two meetings, which lends color to the Fed’s statement that they don’t care a fig for Organizel Baseball and are perfectly satisfied to play the game according to their own rules. The older baseball organizations are employing different tactics than they practiced last year. In the Ben- nie Kauff case Organized Baseball practically admitted its inability to hold a Fed player who was padlocked to one of the outlaw teams. Last season it's attitude was radically dif- ferent. But with the Feds refusing to tackle players in the two other big leagues who are bound by strong contracts, the National and American leagues found such a course mighty unpopular and abondoned the open warfare. The Feds are acting as gentlemanly as outlaws can and for its own protection Organized Base ment have been turned down by the MASCOT!

I do not refer to this for the purpose of calling the attention of the imperial German government at this time to the surprising irregulari- ty of a communication from the im- perial German- émbassy at Washing- ton addressed to the people of the United States through the newspa- pers, but only for the purpose of pointing out that no warning that an unlawful.and inhumane act would be committed can possibly be accepted as an excuse of pelliation for the act, or as an abatement of the responsi- bility for its commission. “Long acquainted as this gov- ernment has been with the character of the imperial German government and with the high principles of equity by which they have in the past been acuated and guided, the government of the United States cannot belleve that the commanders of the vessels which committed acts of lawlessness did so except under a misapprehen- sion of the orders issued by the Ger- man naval authorities. It takes it for possibilities of every such case, the commanders even of submarines were expected to do nothing that would involve the lives of non-combatants or the safety of neutral ships, even at the cost of failing of their ob- ject or capture or destruction. It coun- fidentially expects, therefore, that the imperial German government will disavow the acts of which the gov- ernment of the United States com- plains, that they will make repara- tion so far as reparation is possible for injuries which are without meas- ure, and that they will take imme- diate steps to prevent the recurrence of anything so obviously subversive of the principles of warfare for which the imperial German govern- ment has in the past so wisely and so firmly contended.

If they are playing at a loss, as O. B. claims every other day, Organized Baseball should have just that much less to worry about. Federal league owners have adopted baseball as a business proposition and seem perfectly content to stan.l whatever loss occures in making it a paying one. In their second year 1| the Feds have eight teams playing a regular schedule and doubtless a few of them are making expenses. That in itself is a worthy achievement and the men who brought this about will probably realize a profit on their in- vestment in time. And until that time comes the men backing the out- law teams can affort to lose consider- able money, as they all are men of in- dependent wealth. In the money losing game Organiz- ed Baseball is_entitled to a little credit. What about the money it has spent in fighting the outsiders? No one pretends to know how much it is, but it is no meager amount. And the sad part about this lost O. B. cash is that it is probably gone for- ever, for gate receipts in Organized Baseball parks are not growing larger. In fact, they may even bz decreasing. GERMANYS ANSWER TO U. S. NOTE TO BE DELAYED (Continued trom Page 1.) ly admit. We are informed that in the instance in which we have spoken time enough for even that poor measure of safety was not given, and in at least two of the cases just cited not so much as a warning was receivéd. Manifestly submarines can- not be used against merchantmen, as the last few weeks have shown, with- out an inevitable violation of many sacred principles of justice and hu- manity. 1 ‘“‘American citizens act within their indisputable rights in taking their ships and in traveling wherever their legitimate business calls them upon the high seas, and exercise those rights in what should be well justi- fied confidence that their lives will not be endangered by acts done in clear violation of universally ac- knowledged international obligation, and certainly in the confidence that their own government will sustain them in the exercise of their rights. German Warning. “Theré was recently published in the newspapers of the United States, I regret to inform the imperial Ger- man government, a formal warning, purporting to come from the imperial German embassy at Washington, ad- dressed to the people of the United States, and stating in effect, that any citizen of the United States who exer- cised his right of free travel would do so at his peril if his journey should take him within the zone of waters within which the imperial yGerman navy was using submarines against the commerce of Great Brit- “The government and people of the United States look to the imperial German government for just, prompt and enlightened action in this vital matter with ‘the greatest confidence, because the United States and Ger- many are bound together not only by special ties of friendship, but also by the explicit stipulations of the treaty of 1828 between the United States and the Kingdom of Prussia. “‘Expressions of regret and offers of reparation in case of the destructior of neutral ships sunk by mistake, while they may satisfy international obligations if no loss of life results, cannot justify or excuse a practice, the natural necessary effect of which is to subject neutral nations and neut- ral persons to new and immeasurable risks. “The 1mperml German government will not expect the government of the United States to omit any word or any act necessary to the performance of its sacred duty of maintaining the rights of the United States and its citizens and of safeguarding their free exercise and enjoyment. —“BRYA Fix UP YOUR LAWN AND YARD WITH Shruhho':y and Fruits at These Low Prices These are strictly No. 1 stock, all budded out, and we will replace next year if any die out.

FEMALE LABOR AND VICE| Denver, Colo., May 14.—Women workers were divided into two great classes—those who work until their husbands can support them and those who are working until they get hus- bands—by Mrs. Catherine Van Deu- sen, secretary of the state minimum wage commission of Colorado. Mrs. Van Deusen emphatically de- clared also: “‘Statistics prove that the vice problem has nothing to do with the wage problem, but it is the htgli salaried girl who has the temptations. She can afford to make herself attrac- tive and it is she with “her good clothes and not her shabbily clad un- derpaid sister who receives attention. Of the girls who make low wages not more than one eut of every hundred goes wrong. The percentage of the high salaried girls who travel away from the straight and narrow .path is large.” “In one of Denver’s biggest fac- tories only women who are members of the garment workers’ union are employed,” she said. “That factory is a model. Organized labor does not want minimum wage laws. It can take care of itself. bear in mind that there are women who are working only as a temporary expedient. . Either they are marrjed and are working until their husbands are able to support them .or they are unmarried women working until they get husbands. That is the elass of [ woitiéti -who do mot organize. They fail to protect themselves, so the state must.” . Ramblers Win Game.
