The only discussion by the meeting of the Federal situation lasted but half an hour. In that time every on: of the efght clubs, throush its repre- sentative, declared for peace but it was the general opinion that peace the Federal League, not through ifs “There is no room for & third league,” they agreed and the elimination of the competing clubs in Chicago, St. Louls and Brooklyn must be included in any terms of truce . As for the New York club, Frank Farrell, its president, arrived just as the meeting broke up and declared emphatically to the newspaper men that the . Yankees £re pot for sale. 1t is sald, téo, that no decision of the proposed transfer bad taken place in the meeting but the desire of the league for better returns in New York was admitted. Delay in the arrival of Farrell gave rise to rumors that a discussion of the Chance case was taking place in his absence. As a matter of fact, Farrell’s friends in the league were stronger than rumor credited. Among DEAN OF AMERICAN LEAGUE UMPIRES DEAD Jack Sheridan Passed Away After Three Weeks of lilness > Jack Sheridan, dean of American league umpires, dled of heart failure at San Jose, Cai., Wednesday. Sheridan had been ill for ‘three weeks, He was 62 years old, but still a competent arbitrater. With Bill Klem he accom- panied the world’s tourists last year. Sherldan was a native of . Iilinois, ‘orn in Decatur, but made his winter residence in recent years in San Jose, Cal. He began bis basebail career in 1884 as second baseman for the Reno team, of San Frencisco. In the follow- ing year he played in Chattanooga and occasionally acted as Southern league umpire. Beginning in 1886, Sheridan umpired for four years in the Califor- nia league. He cast his lot with the Brotherhood league in 1890, returning to the Coast league after the war. The National league obtained Sheridan's services in 1892, but in the following year he was with the Southern league. ‘The Western league added Sheridan to its staff in 1894 and when it became the American league he remained with until the end, with the exception of wo seasons, in 1896 and 1897, when he umplred for the National league. e made the trip around the world st winter with the Comiskey-McGraw tourists, JOHNSON HINTS THE REMOVAL OF FARRELL Devey’s High-Handed Work Means Ousting of Yankees’ Boss s Frank J. Farrell to remain as cwner and president of the American league baseball club in greater New York? There is little doubt that Farrell would like to retain the franchise but he may be compelled to pass over his holdings to another for several rea- sons. President Johnson of the Am- erican league was asked whether Far- rell was to remain in active charge of the New York club and made the fol- lowing significant reply: “T dew't know. That is something that will be determined soon. The American league chieftain was asked what would be done if Farrell decided that he wanted to remaim. “Whether he wished to remain would t affect the question,” said Johnscn. “It would be a subject to be deter- mined by the American league. Mr. Farrell has a number of interests out- side of baseball that consume much of_his time.” The American league chief denied that the Wards of Brooklyn would pur- chase the New York franchise provid- ed Farrell sold his interest in the club, This sets at,rest all speculation con- cerning the Federal league as a fac- tor i nthe disposition of the team. It was the quarrel between Chance and Willlam S. Devery that opened Jobnson's eves to the real conditions in the New York club. Those close to Johnson say the American league chief vowed that Devery must go, and in- asmuch as Farrell has backed Devery 4 Chicke 3 ’0']:.“ .‘!’ Turkeys, 3 Guinea Chicks, 65 Butter— v iney u inegar, “rub, nigere Sal. 3 Creamery, 46 &'nuu Chesse— 14 ioe. 51 T o B . ioat 10 ibs. §1 Pim: 15| Powdered, - ° Rew: 3i[wonspess: o= %fl‘.‘;""’" | Porto R Camenm! | New oriedas *° i < Cods’ “Toogues,: 16 Houna Ciame, 9. o & 3 i 5 e 10-13 S £0-2a < | Flataa: Y5l iatibat 40} Saimon, 40-35 “oug i k. 60 P A g AT ‘Wheat, $2.15 Hominy, 1.40| Cornme: 145 day. balea. 73 cwt 3 ronseed AMeal, o 1 sure Mr. {Alser was~on- the' trip" ‘sround” the | world. in all his moves, it is hinted the pres- ident of the New York club will be glad to sever his connections with the club in Gotham after taliing it over with the magnates here. It is said Johnson already has served noticce that he is about to wield the big stick: It will pe recalled that Jimmy Mc- Aleer was forced tq sell his holdfngs in the Boston Red Sox, or at least that the pressure from within was so great as to cause him to leave the club. In fact, the deal for the purchase of the Red Sox was consummated when Mc- The Royal Rooters episode in-Boston which' caused the dismissal of Jake Stahl as manager after the Chicagoan had led his men to a world's champion- ship Toused fthe ire of Johnson and caused McAleer to be the reciplent of a teprimand for his action. Johnson wortended that Stahl deserved recog- pition for his showing in_ leading Boston to a pennant, It was Johnsor contention that Stahi should not have been bumiliated inn ruch a manner. The Stahl ard Chance epizodes occa- sloneqd wida cotament. Frank Chance was a figure of national importance in bassbell. It required rauch manoeuv- ering to Mbring the former leader of the Cubs from the Natioval to the Ameri- can league. That Chauce showd be humiliated by Devery snd that the P. L. should be dismissed in such eum- wmary fashion again roused the ire of the ‘American league executive. It will not surprise the wise ones if Farrell follows McAleer out of the American league. Whather he wishes to remain will not save him from it Ban Johnson has decided the question, : n of the Federals—Frank Farrell Declared | Yankees Are Not For Sale—Mack Refused to Make a them were James Lannin of the Boston club, who praised the New York pres- ident’s efforts to make the Yankees a winning tewm and sald he for one would oppose & Except that some of clubs had as many as forty men on their payrolls and could not dispose of them because of the fear of the Federal League, there was no reason found to warrant recognition of the Federals, the club owners said. Plans for distribution of extra players among the minor leagues, in a way to assure their not ‘being signed by the Federals, will be left to President Johnson and the minor league owners at the Omaha fomsger Mack of the Philadelphin lanager of club, refused to make a formal charge against Manager Jennings of Detroit, who was accused of giving out the news of walvers being asked'on Plank, Bender and Coombs. Mack said he had buried the hatchet after commun- icating with Jennings. The charge that Manager Grifith of Washington had informed the Boston Braves of the Athletics’ “weakness” thus contributing to the defeat of his gwn colleagues was not taken serious- ly. The league approved the financial re- port made by the board of directors and awarded without argument the 1914 pennant to Philadelphia. A short session tomorrow is expected to wind up the meeting. YANKEES LOOK LONGINGLY FOR COLLINS’ SERVICES Eddie Collins May Manage New York Americans Yet, Frank Farrell was not communica- tive on the subject of Eddie Collins coming to the Highlandess from the Athletics when the newspapermen tackled him for a confirmation or de- nial of the report emanating in Phil- adelphia that the game's greatest sec- ond baseman was to be sold outright or traded to the New York Americans. It is asserted, however, that such a deal has been under consideration for some_time. Collins as a mManager of the Yankees has been Farrells idea for severil months. When the final break came with Frank Chance he began to lay his plans for acquiring Collins. Thig Farrell is likely to deny, but it has leaked out that he has looked longingly to the day when he could get Collins. The player is only too anxious to play in New Yerk. In Philadelphia they say it has been the height of Colling' ambition to appear in a Highlander uniform and that wire-pulling to land him with Far- rell’s club has been going on for some time, Lute Boone, Who is a clever second baseman, will be shifted to the Ath- letics. Connie Mack thinks highly of him and believes he can make a2 great player of him. - Ban Johnson is engineering the deal. The fact that he is interested makes it appear as if Collins would go to New York. The Brooklyn Federals are after Collins too; in fact Collins’ name has been mentioned in connec- tion with the Brookfeds ever since last summer. The Wards are willing to pay big money to acquire his services, but Ban Johnson will see to it that he remains in organized baseball, say those on the inside. The Feds may not get Eddie Plank after all. The Detroit Tigers are anxious to sign him. Jim Bluejacket, the Brookfeds' In- dian pitcher, is said to be sorry for his jump to the Federals and now wants to g0 to the Glants. President Hempstead, however, said that he ‘won’t have any deserters on his team, which leaves Bluejacket with the Feds. Secretary Foster, of the Giants, is said to have in his possession the Fed- eral league contract which was offered to Pitcher Bill Ritter. He said that it was_drawn up in such a way that the Federals could cover It at any time under certain conditions, and added that the talk about the Feds' contract being fairer to the ball player than the contracts of organized ball was ‘bosh. VICTORY FOR YALE MEANS SWEEPSTAKE SEASON IN SPORT = A E T, Eli Lacks Only Football Triumph Over son to Make 1914 a Banner With only the games rematning against Harvard, Princeton and Brown, her leading university rivals, Yale football schedule was left nearly spent by the game with Colgate. The situa- tion has shifted but little since the opening ‘game of the season. A vet- eran, almost irresisble backfield, and a green, erratic, unsettied rush-line glve the coaches a perplexing problem as the final matches of the season are approached, It has been the keenest disappoint- ment of the season that the rush line has halted and been checked in its development, compelling the coaches to try out a large field of even more inexperienced material than was shown by the unfortunate Washington and Jefferson game, to be unsatis- factory. The selection of the rush iine for the Harvard and Princeton games will not be possible until close upon the eve of those battles and the Col- gate and next Saturday's engagements will throw searchlights on the strug- £ling mass of - inexperiencéd candi- dates. Nearly all the Yalo setbacks of the season were focused upon the rush line. The loss of the best guard of the squad, Ple Way, the injuries that benched End Rushes Roberts, Higgin- botham, Brann and Carter, all of varsity experience, and the illness of Captain Talbott have proved ‘handi- capts that have upset the prospects of before the Princeton game.

Myron Jackson at left guard has broken into the limelight by his steady, dependable playing on the rush line. He gives every indacation of developing into a star of the first order and will be a big factor in Trinity’s tams during the next four years. Jackson played a great game of football when he attended the Acad- emy and was president of his class. RUBE OLDRING BOOKED FOR RELEASE Is Understosd That Mack Has Planned to Include Rube in the Re- lease List. 3 In addition to Bender, Plank and Coombs, it is reported that Rube Old- ring is also slated for release. So far as can be learned Oldring has not been pldced on the walver list, for it is almost certain that no team in the American Jeague would waive on him, Dut he will very lfiely figure in a trade unless he halks and accepts an offer that has been made to him to Jump to-the Federals, This raid-is one of the “surprises” the Federals declared they wouid hand to Johnson, Tener and Hermann when the recent peace negotiations falled to materialize.

HARVARD READY FOR TIGERS Wollace May Start in the Game Sat- urday—Crimson’s Probable Lineup the line material. Former Yale teams have learned by bitter experience and the university believes that. the rush line will take to heart the stern les- sons of the Washington ard Jefferson defeat, and will not crumple again this season. Nothing positive, however, can be predicted of a rush line which, with the exception of the captain, was en-! tirely new this season, and Which, as now composed, Is entirely different In- addition to the routine businegs of the league, the subject of the Fed- eral league is bound to come up for discussion.

Fully as much attention has been given to developing promising substi- tutes as to the varsity eleven itself by the football coaching administration of which Frank Hinkey is at the head. By his constant search for promising players in the ranks of the second and third elevens more than half the present varsity team has been mould- ed into form. The Yae coaching staft has made it clear that the eleven that faces Princeton and Harvard will not be picked till within two or three days of these games, and the rapid devel- opment of two or,three second string players has put them in line for elev: enth hour spurt that may crowd a regular to the bench, as Conroy and ‘Walden have already replaced the first string guards of the early half of the season, Oakes and Jim Sheldon. Three of the most promising of the latest players to develop are Walte, Stillman and Betts. Stillman, by re- markable tackling and handling of forward passes at end rush, has made himself a favorite in that position. Waite vesterday showed the fastest form in end runs any Yale player has exhibited this season. This was the role cast for Alnsworth, but he has failed to strike his gait and to play the part this fall as the coaches had hoped. YALE HAD FIRST DRILL IN NEW BOWL. The -Walls Protect the Field From Breezes—Light Practice for Ercwn Gam New Haven, Conn. Nov. 5.—Yale's football team had its first drill in the Bowl today.- The practice was devoted mostly -to catching punts, to ascertain the effect of the air currents within the immense amphitheater and play- ers experienced practically no trouble. The walls of the oval, fifty feet high, effectively sheltered the playing fleld from the stiff breeze that was blowing outside. A scrimmage was held on old Yale Field, where the .varsity scored two touchdowns against the scrubs. Pra tice will be ligit. tomorrow in prepara- t.l;‘)‘;l for the game with Brown on Sat- urday. DICKERING FOR SALE OF CHICAGO NATIONALS To President Weeghman of the Chi- cago Federal League Club Pittsburs, Pa., Nov. 5.—Harry Ack- erland, yice president of the Chicago National league club, declared here tonight that negotiations are pending for the sale of that club to Charles Weeghman, president of the Chicago Federal league club. “It is true that negotiations are now on for the sale of the Chicago club to Mr. Weeghman,” sand Ackerland, “but I am not in a position to discuss de- talls.” Ackeriand sald hé would not sell his interests in the Cubs, whicch he pur- chased from Frank Chance several years ago. WHY JOHNSON HASN'T JUMPED Federals Refused to Bank His Salary Three Years in Advance The true story of Walter Johnson's refusal to sign with the St. Louls Feds last week has leaked out. When Field- er Jones tackled the famous Washing- ton pitcher with an offer of $15,000 a year and a three years' contract he struck an unexpected snag. Johnson demanded more money and notified Jones that the St. Louis Feds would have to hand over a years salary in advance, also putting the salary for 1916 and 1917 in the bank to his credit. Jones consulted with the St. Louis Feds' backers, who promptly ad- vised him that they would not post Johnson's entire salary before he sign- ed with them. Johnson, when told of this decision, informed Jones that he would end the nesotlations then and there, as he did not intend to run risks. Meanwhile Johnson received an inside tip from somebody in organized baseball that the Feds were anxious to make peace and that he would be returned to the Washington club if he took the jump. As Johnson did not care to antagonize the fans in Wash- ington, he decided to remain on the fence indefinitely. He will sign with Clark Griffith at the proper time. Trinity Ready for Wesleyan. The decistve victory of the Trinity football team over New York univer- sity election day gives every indica- tion that the date of the Wesleyan- Trinity contest at Middletown, No- vember 14, will find the Blue and Gold eleven playing at its top-notch power. The Hartford eleven, upsetting the- tradition of past years, played true to the form displayed in previous games, and did not experience the slump o marked in former years on the occa- sion of the annual holiday clash. The three'touchdowns forced over the Vio- let line by Trinity were in all cases earned, and football authorities gen- erally ‘agreed that the Blue and Gold outclassed N..Y. U. in all departments of the game. Manager Fred Payne of the Syra- cuse club of the New York state league says his club will be put on the 't this week. He thinks In- ternational present they, are requested to notify |} This year we have and New CLEAN FOOTBALL FOR THE BIG GAMES Harvard and Princeton Striving to Maintain Good Sportsmanship. Princeton and Harvard have set in motion a movement, says Herbert Reed, that promises to spread rapidly looking toward the curbing of “muck- er” football. That they will be joined by the other leading institutions at an carly date seems assured. In a word the plan is that each institution shall visit punishment of the severest sort upon any of its own men who so far forget themselves as fo deliberately slug, trip or play any other kind of what is commonly known as “dirty” football. The two great institutions, which meet Saturday at Cambridge, have pledged themselves through their foot- ball representatives and it is worth noting that the faculties have had nothing to do with it—to bar from further participation in football throughout his college course any man who Dlays with unnecessary rough- ness, where the intent i plain. It must be remembered that the men who have entered into this agreement are men who have played through the hardest kind of football games, have never hesitated to bring down their man as hard as possible and have never hesitated to go into the tackler ‘with all the speed and power that is in_them. # No molly-coddle agreement this, but a sensible arrangement between prac- tical coaches who know the dierence between hard, honest football and the other thing. They stand of course, on the common ground of sportsman ship, but are perfectly frank in say- ing that no man who is giving his best to his team, and who is doing himself justice as ywell, can hope to be of service to Mis own university on_the fleffld, and may even, through habit, incur penalties that ‘will cost the game should he indulge in “muck- er” football, even if undefected by the officials. There have been a great many dis- qualifications on the field this year— six on one Saturday, if memory serves —ana the trouble has reached the danger point. The big universities are Getermined not to have any of their own men on the Jist, a lst that prob- ably will grow, since the officials are determined to stamp it out. These latter de not intend to let the game “get away” from them in the future and the larger institutions intend to stand behind them by seeing to it that thelr own men come out of the big games with clean hands. In the case of institutions that do not subsecribe to such an agreement as that made between Harvard _and Princeton, it is to be hopedl that the central board of officlals will stand b its appointees a little more firmly tha: has been the case recently. When ¢ man who has been banished for slug ging follows the official who remove: him off the fleld and into the dressin room after the game, and there threat ens to “beat him up” it is time fo the central board of officlals to stiffer its backbone and take some action that will be of lasting importance.

The Feds had a crude idea of the baseball business at the outset of their fight. They firmly believed that the public would pay the freight with such liberality that large profits would ac- crue. But after staggering through a campalgn of disaster the Feds are srowing extremely wise. Weeghman makes no secret of the fact that the Feds cannot pay such salaries and survive next vear. He estimates that there will be some kind of an agree- ment with organized baseball that will prevent wholesale extortion. Mean- while the players who jumped to the Feds are beginning to worry. They have no idea what will be their finish. Under the rules they are barred from organized baseball from three to five years, and they do mot expect to be forgiven. SPECTATORS DEMAND NUMBERS. Will Be a Big Help to the Fans at the Yale-Harvard Game. Numbering football players has be- come so popular that persons who in- tend to see the biz games this fall at Cambridge, New Haven and Princeton will hope that this system of Iidentifi- cation will be adopted at the last mo- ment. Take the Yale-Harvard game In the Bowl for instance! Spectators who have seats on the top rows will be so far away from the gridiron that it will be difficult for them to dis- tinguish one plaver from another. If Harvard and Yale use numbers, how- ever, the spectators can readily tell what 1s belng accomplished. The foot- ball managers and coaches at Cam- bridge and New Haven cannot deny that the use of numbers has been suc- cesstul at Princeton and other univer- sities. In view of the presence of 70,000 fans in the Yale Bowl there- fore, and practically all of them favor- ing the new plan, why not adopt it without further hagzling? Yale Neets Penn at Soccer. Franklin fiéld, Philadelphia, will be the scene Saturday of the first in- tercollegiate soccer football champion- ship match that has ever been played there. The game will bring together Yale and Pennsylvania, Last year Pennsylvania defeated Yale at soccer, going through the season without de- feat. This is the first game for each of these teams, and their respective strength is unknown. Coach Stewart feels”that he should have an even better téam shan the one which represented Pepn.last year. He has retained the madority of last sea- son’s players.. They have not won any of the games in their preliminary sea- son this fall,” but théy have played against some’ of “the st teams in the country.
