New York, Nov. 26.—Notwithstand- ing the sudden death of John T. Brush, president of the New York Na- tional league baseball club, 1:nal;xm.tesT of the National league assembled here to-consider the charges against Presi- dent Fogel of the Philadelphia club, went into session at 2 o'clock this aft- ernoon as scheduled. The resolutions framed by the league directors on President Brush’s death were given out when a recess for an hour was taken this evéning until 8.30 o'clock. Julius Fleishmann of Cin¢innati pre- sided over the meeting at the request of President Lynch. All the clubs were represented. Mr. Fogel was rep- resented by A. S. L. Shields of Phil- adelphia. At the outset the Philadelphia club presented documents showing that Mr. Fogel haq resigned as president No- vember 22 and that A. B. Wiler had beén elected his successor. Seven_distinct charges were made against Mr. Fogel, alleging that he had issued false and slanderous stafe- ments which would make for public distrust of the National league—that the St. Louis team had placed weak teams in the field against New York, that the National league pennant race of 1912 was not properly conducted, that the race in question had been “fixed for New York to win,” that the umpireq had been “fixed” for the same end, that Philadelphia did not receive a fair deal, and that Mr. Fogel caused TORONTO HIT AT .293.

In the first place, he Questioned the jurisdiction of the Na- tional league ig calling him to account in the manner it had. done. As to the alleged remarks themselves he de- clared that another Philadelphia pro- fessional man had made the state- ments’ attributed to him. That man did not wish his name to be known, Fogel said. He also declared that at the time the statements were made, hg himself had remarked that there were too many safeguards thrown around professional baseball for such a thing to_occur. In reply to questions today. as to whether he believed the pennant race, league officials or President Lynch were “crooked,” Fogel replied in each case, “No.” At the same time it was given out, that Fogel declared the Philadelphia team had got a “rotten deal, any how,” and had received it consistently for the past three years. Several New York newspaper men testified that they heard Fogel make the statements attributed te him. Sev- eral Philadelphia newspaper men tes- tified to the contrary, attributing the statements te a ' Philadelphia profes- sional man, as Fogel had asserted in his reply to the charges.

Call mbney, opening at 9 per cent, quickly advanced to 12 per cant., and renewals were made at 11 per cent., as compar- ed with 6 per cent. yesterday. After touching the high point the rate de- clined steadily until before the close money was offered at 3 per cent. There was some further calling in of loans, owing to the demands of interior banks and it was suggested also that window dressing for the expected call from the comptroller for a statement of the condition of national banks played a part in the action of the money mar- ket. The.more urgent demands for funds were quickly satisfied, however, call loans were in small request. Time rates hardened in sympathy with the movement of call money. The stock market was relieved to- reassuring news of the European po- litical situation the foreign markets opening.

Walter Camp Says Yale Has No Ex- cuses to Offer for Saturday’s Defeat. Walter Camp, Yale's advisory coach, has the following to say on the Yale defeat Saturday: “It was an overwhelming defeat, and there are no excuses. The Harvard team deserves every credit. Yale's sturdy defense stod out as a redeem- ing feature. and the individual pluck of the Blue team was exhibited by their come-back in the fourth period, when, more than hopelessly behind, they fought their way sturdily up that field with a persistency that deserved a better fate. The Harvard team is to be congratulated on its splendid seasol’'s work, and Haughton on crowning ‘his labors for the last few years with the production of a mag- nificently rounded-out aggregation. “Harvard brought down a splendidly finished team, good in all around pla with a consistent kicking game worke to its limit against a team unable to handle the punts. Their quarterback, Gardner, finding his line plays, even his formerly successful split plays with ‘Wendell carrying the ball unsuccess- fully, worked a couple of fakes with wide end rums for clever gains. Find- ing himself unable to get over the line he succéeded with a drep kick by Brickley. . Then later, once mo pounding the line ineffectively, having drawn the Yale end in, he sent a, pret- ty end rum in the third period after a muff by Flynn, which gave Harvard the ball on Yale’s 20 yard line for a touchdown clean outside of Yale’s left end.. That showed the polish of Har- vard's consistent play. When stopped from tackle to tackle they used just the right kind of deception, and always had as a background the kicking of Felton with a more than even chance that the ball might be muffed.” PRESIDENT BRUSH DEAD. President of New York National Club Had Been Failing for Some Time. Indianapolis, In Nov. 26. — The body of John T. Brush, president of the New York National league base- ball club, arrived here late today and was taken to the home of his daugh- ter. The funeral will be held in St. Paul's church Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock and will be In charge of the Masonic lodge. 8t.. Louis, Nov. 26.—John T. Brush died of locomotor ataxia on his private car Oceanic just as a Chicago, Bur- lington and Quincy train to which his car was attached was pulling into See- burger, 0., 36 miles north of here, aat 1215 o'clock this morning. He had been in ill health for several years. Mr. Brush started from New York Sunday night and arrived here last night at 10.18 o'clock. At 11.25 his private car having been transferred from the Big Four to the Burlington, he resumed his trip westward with San Francisco in view. The flylng trip across the country was begun in desperate efforts to bet- ter the baseball magnate's health. CHAMPION YEARLING. SOLD. J. Howard Ford Pays $12,500 for Trot- ter Airdale, 2.151-4, Airdale, 2.151-4, the world's cham- plon trotter and one of the sensations of the past light harness season, is now the property of J. Howard Ford of New York, owner of the trotting gfal- lion Billy Burke, 2.033-4. Accorfiing to reports from Lexington the noted youngster cost Fred $12,500, the pur- chase price being made from Jarrel Tarlton, propristor of Allendale stock farm, near Lexington, Ky. It was from the same breeder last year that Ford bought the yearling trotter, Lord Allen, with which he won a number of the 2 year old divisions of the big futuri- ty, paying for him $61,00. Airdale will surely join the training stable of Lon McDonald, who has trained and driven for Ford Billy Burke and Lord Allen with great success,and to the full sat- isfaction of their owner. Airdale is heavily staked in all leading futurities, and will be raced in the juvenile di- visions next year same as Lord Allen this year. The purchase of this sen- sational youngster by Ford will nat- urally cause some surprise in horse circles for the reason that Airdale is an own brother to Lord Allen, both being by Tregantle out of Miss Fannie Summers, 2.16 1-4, by Bow Bells, sec- ond dam Florence D., 2.29 1-2, by Jay Gould. Airdale’s present record is fast- er by four seconds than the former championship mark of the age, the holder being Miss tokes, in 2.191-4, Lord Allen's yearling mark was 2,26 1-4. Penn Has Signal Drill. Philadelphia, Nov. 26.—The Univer- sity of Pennsylvania football squad went through a fast signal drill today on the golf links at White Marsh, The Pennsylvania players will remain in the suburbs until Thursday, when they will return to Fpanklin fleld for the game with Cornell- The Thanksgiving day contest will be the final game for Captain Mercer, Jourdet and Harring- ton and they are anxious to wind up their footballycareers with a victory. Cornell at Atlantic City. Atlantic City. N. J., Nov. 26.—The Cornell football team, which arrived here today to finish its preparations for the Thanksgiving day game with the University of Pennsylvania, was given a lively signal drill this after- noon by Coach Sharpe, long forward passes, criss-crosses and end runs were the principal plays called for and were run through in a manner which would indicate a fast open game on Thursday at Philadelphia. The same team as faced Michigan probably will line up at the opening of the .game, except that Fritz, who has completely recovered from his injuries, will sup- plant Bennett at right halfback. Team Three Defeats Team Two. Team Three won two out of three games from Team wo in the junior duckpin league uesday night on the Aldi bowling alleys.

The progress of the Connecticut Good Roads association pilot car in its tour of the 400 miles of road which it is proposed to cover with a perma- nent pavement, was accompaule_d by coraial receptions and enthusiastic support of this new departure in road construction in this state. It has been the means of bringing into the asso- ciation a number of the business men’s associations and automobile clubs that were not in at the initiation of the movement, 8o that now almost all of the chambers of commerce, bus- iness men’s associations and automo- bile clubs are enlisted in behalf of the work. In addition many individuat members have voluntarily requested enrollment and paig their admission fee. It may be safely stated that no movement of any character has been started in this state in a long series of vears that has gained such momentum or promised such lasting benefits and economic advantage to the common- wealth. When the public meetings in the several cities and towns that have been arranged for, are held, the work yet to be done will be more carefully outlined and full preparation made to carry it forward with zeal and energy. A bill will be drafted for submission to the incoming general assembly pro- viding for the establishment of the four hundred miles of pavement, the line of which is now preity generally known throughout the state, and for means with which to - prosecute the work when once the route is estab- lished. It is mot proposed, of course, to attempt to tear up the trunk lines throughout the state in an efforf to immediately build the whole line pro- jected. Instead, the work will be car- rled on in sections where most needed and there sections will be lengthened as necessity requires until the whole line is built. Where the macadam now down can be kept in good condi- tion at reasonable expense, it is not proposed to disturb it at the present time, but as rapidly as it wears out to replace it with the new pavement. This, it will be observed, is a practical and conservative way to bring more durable and better roads to the state a{nd once built there can be no ques- tlon as to the economy they will bring with them. ¥ ———— At the mesting of the diregtors of the Connecticut Automobile assocla- tion at Waterbury, November 22 a vote was taken recording opposition to the federal aid of highways as inexpedi- ent, and the legal committee instruct- ed to procure two bills for submission to the general assembly. One bill will require that lights be displayed on all vehicles from half an hour after sunset until sunrise, and the other pro. posed law would prohibit the use of wagons that are so closed in that a driver cannot have a clear view of the highway In turning around. — According to government statistics compiled from the 1909-1910 census of manufacturers, one cent of each dollar of American capital is now em- ployed in the automobile industry. The number of wage earners in the indus- try is proportionately greater than in any other industry, while the wage standard figures out proportionately higher than in other industries, so that the cry of Some political econdmists that the industry is economically un- productive can be disregarded. Service Director Kinnear of Colum- bus, O, is authority for the statement that the municipal government is los- ing money every day because of the few automobiles used. He advocated the purchase of a large number of cars in order to save the time of high- salaried employes. While it is sald that some people laugh at the idea of the ecity buying automobiles, it is a plain business proposition and a mat- ter of economy.
