ISAAC S. JONES Insurance and Real Estate Agent Richards Building, 91 Main Street Cincinnati, O., Dec. 22.—Probably the most disastrous war that the baseball game 'has ever experienced came to a close here tonight when a treaty of peace between the Federal league and both parties to the national baseball agreement, better known as organized baseball, was signed. Two major league clubs will change hands as the result of the bringing about of peace and two new faces will be seen among major league magnates in the future. Charles Weeghman, who has been president of the Chicago Federal league club, will purchase the controlling interest in the Chicago Na- v | tional league team from Charles P. The agreement gives immunity to all men who have jumped their con- tracts from both the major and minor leagues of organized baseball as well all other Federal league players. 8 All of them have been reinstated or ATTORNEYS-AT-LAW AMOS A.

When asked what disposition would be made of the suit of the Federal league against orgaaized baseball. charging violation of the anti-trust law, now pending before Judge Landis in Chicago, President Tener of the National league, acting as spokesman, said: “The suit will be withdrawn.” Mr. Weeghman, who will become the new owner of the Chicago Cubs, in- tended to leave tonight for Texas to make the final transfer, as Mr. Taft is on a hunting trip there. He changed his mind at the last moment, however, i and will see Mr. Taft on Jan. 4 on his return to this city. The meeting of the committee take up the International leazue qui tion will be held in conjunction with the annual meeting of the national commission on Jan. 3 pext. It was announced tonight that all suits pertaining to baseball pending in any court would be withdrawn in the next day or two. The national commission issued a statement tonight praising the attitude that was taken during the entire nego- tiations by President Gilmore of the Federal league. A majority of those who attended the meeting here departed for their homes tonight following the adjourn- ment of the conference. PENN WILL HAVE ONLY NINE FOOTBALL GAMES Schedule for 1916 the it Years. to Small in Philadelphia, Dec. 22.—The Univer- sity of Pennsylvania for 1916, an- nounted today, calls for nine games, the smallest number in years.

When Jess Williard reads the new: papers announcing the above, he calls his many managers together and tells them not to sien him up with a real fighter, like Battling Levinsky, says Dan Morgan, but to go into the high- ways and byways and gather together all the lemons they can get, like Ful- ton, and that means, that the public will be well squeezed. How does it sound, Jess Williard defending his title against Dub Fulton? To the public it is a big laugh, but Williard and his crew think the public wil stanq for anything. If Williard would come out and sign up for a real bat- tle with Eattling - Levinsky, it would benefit the boxing game, for the bat- tler has whipped every heavyweight and is entitled to first chance at the squash champion. Now, Jass, keep away from the old mans’ home and give the public a run for their mon- ey, by signing up with Battling Le- vinsky, who will give you $5,000 the day that you have courage enough to step into the ring with the famous heavyweight, Battling Levinsky. Changes Basketball Rules. The following is a condensation of the important changes made in the basketball rules, which are in force this season: 1. Roushing a plaver who is in the act of shooting gives opponents two free throws (goals also count if made). It is a foul for a player to come in bodily contact with either of two players who are in a scrimmage, but he ‘may snatch the ball away. 3. (Running with the ball.) A play- er who receives the ball while stand- ing may, in throwing for goal, take one step and ther: jump, without foul- ing. A player who changes his posi- tion without materially advancing the ball is dered to be running A player pushed by an opponent is not considcred as advanc- ing the ball “stop as soon as possible” play the ball standing still. and then s though he had been SPORTING NOTES.

Bresnahan says Zimmerman is a grand ball player to build a team around. attendance can be undestood. Natural hitters like “Zim” are not This does not include the Federal|found on every bush league. It is estimated that the pur- chase and salaries of players for those eight clubs is in the neighborhood of $800,000. This would put the grand total of dollars taken away by ball players in the neighborhood of $37,- 000,000. Verily, the ball player is getting the cream of the game! ‘These fizures were secured from the official report of Secretary John H.

New York, Dec. 22.—Columbia and Harvard carried off the honors today in the first round of their annual chess tournament with Princeton and Yale. Columbia, the winner last year, easily defeated Princeton, 3 to 1, while Har- vard won from Yale, 3 1-2 to 1-2. Har- vard will meet Columbia and Yale will play Princeton in the second round tomorrow.

Branch Rickey, manager of the St. Louis Browns, is said to be after the services of Paul Des Jardien, the for- mer University of Chicago pitcher. It was reported recently that Des Jardien had accepted a place as coach of the University of Chicago varsity football eleven, having decided not to enter professional baseball. It has been claimed that Leach Cross was offered a match with Charley White of Chicago for twelve rounds at the Hippodrome A. C. of Boston on Tuesday evening, January 3, but when the manager of Cross asked for a guarantee of $2,500 the Boston club called off al negotiations. Cross was offered $1,000, with an option of 30 per cent. of the receipts, according to reports. Over in Newark, N.

On the other hand, there is full acknowledg- ment paid to his ability. and the blame is laid at the door of the men on the team. In speaking of Daly the editorial savs: “He emploved the same methods which he used in developing his win- ning teams at Williams. He endeav- ored to teach the men the same funda- mentai principles of the game, but they would not be taught.
