POOR SEASON FOR INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE |y Estimated the League Has a Loss of b $250,000. of the International league is the most disastrous, finan- clally in the history of the circuit. It has been estimated by those In a Dposition to know that the league has been run at a loss of $250,000. &valdencé is_the only ciub that ill make money. It is probable that the Buffalo club will not lose more than $35,000. The loss at Baltimore is. estimated as $60,000, but Jack Dunn got out from under by selling his ‘star baseball players for a sum gqual to what his losses will amount The Federal league boasts of no rain guarantee, but the International league does, and it is_said that the <lub owners in the Barrow clrcuit have been compelled. to dig down into their bank account in a majority of cases this season to/ meet the $200 guafantee paid to the visiting clubs, so small have been the crowds, This condition practically exists over the entire circuit for week-day contests, whilé at Saturday and Sunday games the income is naturally larger, but not sufficient to cover the losses. Judging by’ the attendance to date, it is estimated that the “on the road receipts” for each club will not aver- age over $16,000. . This applies to 77 games. The expenses incurred in each club for this period is figured at $31,- 000, which represents a - deficit of $15,000. The expenditures for the pe- Tiod fincluded $20,000 estimated for salaries, $9,000 for transportation and hotels, and $2,000. league_as: ent. For the home games it is figured that the following expenses must be met: Guarantees to visiting _clubs, $16,000; salaries to players, $20,000; league " assesyment,” $2,000; _office e: penses, including salaries, $7,000; 1 cidentals, ‘including grounds, adver- tising, training. trip, etc., $10,000;. the 5,000, ~Estimating net receipts at $15,000 will bring the Season's losg to $40,000. < Another important item to be con- sidered under expendjtures issthe pur- chase and sale of ball players, which will probably show an average loss of '$7,000 to each club. THe season Sachems vs, State Hospital. . At last the Sachems and the State Hospital will meet to stcp all argu- mepla’ this Satwdey at the hospftal nds. Hourigan and Simcox will be in the lime lizht as the boxsmen and both are working in tip top order. On the 4th the Sachems met with a disastrous defeat at the hands of the Hospital by the score of 5 to 0, and they are in for revenge Saturdsy as they have been strengthened consid- orably and a fight that, no fan can miss is promised. Herzog Has Been Suspended. Boston, Sept. 24.—Manager Herzog, of the Cincinnati Nationals, was no- tified by Secretary Heydler of the league today that he had been sus- pended for ihrce davs, The suspension results from Herzog's objection to a ruling by Umrire Quigley in the first zamc of vesterday's double header, Whei Smith of Boston was allowed a homc rin ou a ball which had been touched by a boy in the center field bleachers. \ CLOSED GATES DURING YALE PRACTICE Strenuous Campaign Mapped Out for Warriors. Orders have been issued by the Yale football coaches to close the gates of Yale field this week. The coaches arc working on' new formations and desire to devote this week to laboratory experiments. Se- cret practice has never before been ordered, however, till' after the sea- son was about half over. It was stated by a football official that the sates of Yale field would be opened more this year than in any season in_modern football history. Plans for the cleven, outlined, make it clear that the present week will be one of the busiest of the season. The squad will report at 9.30 o'clock morn- ings and will get nearly two hours of rudimentary drill, The afternoon prac- tice will not begin until after 4 o'clocks and will include a brisk scrimimage program. A couple of short practice games, will be played this week and the season Will be formally opened next Saturday against the University of Maine. A formal statement will be made by Head Coach Frank Hinkey after the opening of college regarding ‘the policy .of the coaching staff regard- ing sécret practice. It is known that it is felt that if the secret work can be cleared up earlier in the season, the gates can be opened longer dur- ing the afternoons after the season reaches its height during November when college inferest and enthusiasm is keen. The coaches have been slow to ar- rive, but Saturday the squad was com- plete. Hinkey and Dr. Billy. Bull, the backfield and kicking coach, have been here since the practice opéned., It is now certain that Henry Ketcham, cen- ter and captain last year, will be un- able to give any regular time this fall to coaching the eleven, but the former Yale stars, Corbin, Chamberlin, Biglew, Hutchingon, Adee, Flanders and others of_the old guard are expected soon. While the makeup of the rush line will be uncertain for several weeks, two first class sets of backs have been drilled into tip top form at Madison. The season will start with the regular quarter behind the rush line, about as follows Quarterback, Alec Wilson: left halfback, Knowles: ~right halfback, Ainsworth; fuliback, Pumpelly. The second backfield will Ue: Quarterback, MacLeish: left halfback, Chatfield Taylor; right halfback, Easton or Rob- fullback, Wiser. One of the sur- of the pra ice hassbeen the removal of Roberts, from end to the backfield. The end material does not appear to be as abundant as that for laces behind the line and it is not elieved that Roberts will be kept at halfback. For ends there are Whittlesey, Hig- ginbotham and Brann, all lively sub- stitutes. Brann played in most of the Harvard game last year. Nick Carter has been late in putting in an appear- ance. His injured knee kept him from playing much last year and it is not games. It is expected that Charley Sheldon, captain of the freshman team last year, will be given the other tackle position ‘eventually, but an ankle, in- jured in tennis, will keep him out of play for two or three weeks, George McNell, substitute last year, is being used in his position. Oakes and Aleck Harbison are being tried out in the guard positions. Oakes has no su- perior on the squad and is easily a fixture. Harbison's brother, Hugh, was a substitute last year, and would have been a regular but for an injury. Wiley is in the competition for guard and Burnett is’ being used at both center and guard. Miller and Leisenring are the first choices for the snap-back po- sition, which is well played in tech- nigue; although the two. candidates are ight. WORLD’S SERIES WILL START OCTOBER 8TH President Ban Johns Says Season of Both League Will Be Closed the Day Before. Play in the world's championship baseball series probably will start on October 8, one day after the American and National league seasons are brought to a close, according to Pres- ident B. B. Johnson of the American league and member of the national baseball commission. President Johnson asserted that there was no truth in the report that October 10 had been decided on as the date for starting the series. “It is our aim to start and finish the series as early as possible,” John- son sald. “I believe we can arrange to play the first game on October 8. There is no reason for delay.” In the event that the Boston Ni tionals and Philadeiphia club of the American league are contenders for the world's title, two games will be played consécutively in ealh city in- stead of alternating each day as was the case between New York and Philadelphia. The place for the open- ing game, it was announced, will be dectded by the fiip of a coin. GAMES SCHEDULED TODAY, Amirican Lesswa. at Bt Tous New York at Detroit.

Boston, Sept. 24.—Today’s double header resulted in Boston shutting out Cincinnati 5 to 0 in the first game and a 2 to 2 tie in the second, dark- ness causing a suspension of the last contest at the close of the elghth in- ning. As New York lost to St. Lou: this afternoon, the home team in. creased its lead in the pennant race to seven games., Timely hitting and Rudolph’s good pitching_gave the locals the opening game. Both teams scored on errors in/ the first inning of the second con- test. A series of singles gave Boston the lead in the third inning. The ty- ing run came when Groh singled, took second on a throw in to the plate which put out Daniels and scored on Niehoff's hit.

He put St. Louls ahead in the seventh when he tripled and scored on Magee's sacrifice fly. After New York tied the score in the eighth Dolan drove Beck home with a double in the ninth for St. Leuls’ winning run.

Although the result of the drafting. season for, the major leagues has been kept secret’ it is generally understood that few players will be taken from the minors this year. There are sev- eral reasons for this. The drafting was kept secret this year in order to prevent the Federal League dealing with players in advance from the min- ors to the majors. Comparatively few drafted players remain with the major league clubs, most of them be- ing returned or sent to some other minor league club for further de- elopment, or as the result of a deal of some kind between a major league club and a minor league clul This is what the minor leage play- ers are finding fault with. ' The Fed- eral League officials declare they will have about 50 players from the major leagues next season, but by the time they count up thelr losses from this season they will not be so anxious to pay fancy prices to ulre players from the major league ranks. But they will likely turn thelr dragnets on the minors and this is just what the mag- nates of organized baseball have been guarding against. Had organized baseball made pub- lc its draft list it would give the Fed- eral League an opportunity of going after the drafted players and it would force organized baseball clubs to bid against the Federals to get the play- ers tthey wanted to elther keep with the minors or advance to the majors. The secret draft, however, will upset the Federals' plans and it will prevent the players selected by draft from holding up the club owners or organ- ized_baseball by using offers made by the Federals to boost thelr salaries. There has been very little heard of the Federals lately, owing to the news of th: Furopean war crowding the columns of the newspapers. Thegen- eral depression caused by the conflict in Europe has had its effect on base- ball. This season promised to be one of the worst In the history of the game until the Braves and _Giants hooked up in their whiriwind finish for the National League race. The National race will help several clubs out of a hole this season, but others il lose money, and the Federals have feit the blow along with organized baseball. FORD'S GREAT RECORD. Did Wonders With His Emery Papered styl Ray ‘- Keating of the New York Americans attracted widespread. at- tention throughout the country a week ago in his victory over the Athletics. ‘This notoriety was a backfire as re- ported in the New York Sun. Eddle Collins, the shrewd second baseman of the world’s champions, became very suspicious as a result of the puzzling behavior of Keating's offerings. An examination of the ball proved that it had been roughened on one side. Coi- lins called on Umpire Connolly to ex- amine Keating's glove, in which was found set in the palm a square or so of emery paper. With this the pitcher had roughened a good finger hold on the sphere, enabling him to spin it more readily and effect the sharp breaks that led to the discovery of the artifice. While Keating’s trick was discov- ered the news leaked out that most of the New York pitchers had mastered the new style of delivery. Indeed, most of the twirlers who were supposed to be expert in the manipulation of the spitball were using emery paper in- stead of saliva. They were schooled in the art by Catcher Ed Sweeney, who for several years was the battery mate for Russell Ford. It was Ford who first discovered the cunning use to which emery paper might be put. His experiments along these lines re- sulted in his. wonderful record of 26 victories and only six defeats in the American league campaign of 1910. That season, under George Stailings, Ford as a first year man established one of the most enviable records of all time. He came from the Southern league highly recommended as a spit- ball pitcher. In fast company within a few weeks he gained wide publicity as the originator of a freak delivery. it was claimed that he could breas his spithall at will to either side. This mastery made him as formidable against a right,handed batsman. The truth of the matter is that Ford threw very, very few spitballs i ‘American lengue batters. His freak or double barrelled spitter was nathing more than the emery papered stvle in which Keating was discovered. Occa- sionally Ford would offer the moist brand, but only often enough to keep concealed his real ace. “Sweeney was in on the secret” Frank Chance recently. “But he kept the secret well. He was the only man in the business outside of Ford who had the faintest idea of Russ' secret up to a few weeks ago. He tells me that the discovery was made quite by accident. Kahler, the Cleve- land pitcher, dreamed one pight that Ford told him the secret. He imme- diately experimented with emery paper and found that he could get magvel- ous results. He told Sweeney of the discovery and Sweeney immediately realized that Ford’s secret had become an open book. It was then that he imparted instructions to his battery mates.” GEORGIA CAN BOAST OF ANOTHER BASEBALL MAN. George Stallings, Manager of Braves, Was Born There. For some yedrs Tyrus Napoleon Rucker hav the spotlight among native Georgians in the world of baseball. Any refer- ce to Georgia was not complete u rus and Napoleon were men- ed as products of that state. These two birds were the last word in dia- mond affairs from Catoosa county to Trader's Hill, and they constantly de- served all the praise heaped upon them by their fellow citizens. But this year the Georgia popularity trust has expanded. Ty and Nap have been compelied fo move over and share the limelight stuff with another Crack- er, known far and wide as Big Chiel George Stallings, manager of the Bos- ton Braves . Stallings reached his 45th birthday last week. Augusta, Ga., was the place of his birth. He graduated from the Virginia Military institute and later took a coarse in a Baltimore medical college. It was as a member of the medical school baseball team that he first donned the spangles. He was an outfielder and catcher. His work at- tracted the attention of the Philadel- phia Nationals and he was signed by that club in 1887. After mid-season the’ Phillies loaned him to Torénto, which club won the International league pennant that year. So Stall- ings finished his first season in pro- fessional baseball with a wirming outfit. Cobb _and monopolized CONDITIONS OF LIFE IN VIENNA REVEALED e 60,000 Are Unemployed and in.a Help- less Condition. Venice, via Parls, Sept. 24, 7.26 p. m.—A graphic word picture reaching here of conditions of life in Vienna is revealed in an 'official statement of the mayor of Vienna that his. city is supporting the families of 82,000 re- servists at a daily cost of $50,000 and in addition is endeavoring to provide for 100,000 unemployed and another 100,000 fugitives from Galicia and the crown land of Bukowina. For the fu- gitives the city already has expended $1,000,000. According to the mayor's statement 40,000 unemployed have been given positions on the public works but the remaining 60,000 are in & help- less condition. The mayor complains that there has been an inadequate re- sponse to his appeals for' the various war rellef funds and says many wealthy persons have withheld sub- scriptions upon the plea that they did not know which fund to assist. The first official repgrt of the Aus- trian Red Cross shows that the total contributions to its fund amounted to only $840,000. The report says that the rich industrial classes for the most part subscribed liberally, but express- es disappointment at the small con- tributions of many enormously wealthy aritocratic_land owner. The middle and even the lower classes, the report adds, have shown themselves ‘much more generous. Polish newspapers say that, when occupying Lembers, the Russians showed the utmost consideration for the population. They paid cash for all supplies taken: ;placed sentries to guard the public’ buildings and left only enough troops behind to main- tain order. Nearly half the popula- tion fled the city but the remainder are living in perfect quiet and se- curity, according to the newspapers. $100,000,000 GOLD POOL TO MEET FOREIGN OBLIGATIONS.
