New Haven, July 27.—There is more trouble brewing - for 'the Colonial league, the Federal league’s farm in New England. Some time ago the secretary of the . league dismissed Hank Ramsey, the manager of the Springfleld club, and Ramsey then or- ganized another league and threatens to get from fifteen to twenty players to jump from the Colonial league. The Colonial league has had consid- | erable troubleé since the Feds took it over, and several weeks ago dropped two clubs and became a six-team cir- cuit. Now the deposed manager of the Springfield club gets enough finan- cial -backing to secure leases on parks in four Massachusetts cities, and will open his new league tomorrow. He says that when theé games begin the Colonials are going to be minus a number of their players. P 1 A Chamber of Commerce $5,000. Stake Feature of Detrolt Grand Circuit.

Busi- ness Men to Make Trade Trips New York, July 27.—Chairmen of the permanent group committees of American re- publics and other financiers and bus- iness men interested in the develop- ment of the foreign commerce of the United States met yesterday at In- dia House in response to an invita- tion of Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo to arrange for returning the visit of those who attended the recent Pan-American financial conference at ‘Washington. Secretary McAdoo was unable to be present and was represented by As- | sistant Secretary of the Treasiry An-. drew J. Peters, who was elected chair- ' man of the meeting. James A. Far- rell, president of the United States Steel Corporation, who is chairman of the committee having in charge the arrangements for the return visit, outlined the important bearing of an interchange of visits on the relations between the United States and the re- . publics of Central and South America | and urged upon those present the: need of compléte organization and the active participation of representa- | tive business ‘men if the plan is to be productive of the best results, Several Small Committees. The discussion which ‘followed. bore upon the method to be followed, and | it was agreed that one large commit- tee going from one country to an- other would not be so effective as: would several . smaller , committees making trips to individual countries or to groups of them. It was thought . that the later arrangement would avoid the imposition of too great bur- dens' upon the business men of the countries visited, would take less time, and if proper measures should be taken for exchanging and coordi- . nating information would have the ad- vantage of concentration. It was suggested that the several groups of itinerants might meet at convenient places during their travels. Jonn Barrett, director-general of the Pan-. Amerlcan Union, spoke on the conditions of travel prevailing at different seasons of the year. He said that the representatives of the Latin American countries were eager to see tangible results of the recent confer- ence and urged the group system as the most efficient way of returning their visit to this country.
