President Ban Johnson of the Ameri- can League. as a member of the Na- tional Commission, criticises President Tenor of the National league and Chairman Herrmann of the National Com. for their finding in the case of the Brooklyn club against the Newark International League club. President Johnson contends that the decision of the majority of the commission was unjust and at variance with the facts in the case. The Brooklyn club sought to recover $75,293.81. money advanced to the Newark club, but Messrs. Ten- er and Herrmann awarded the owners of the Dodgers the difference between what was received for the Newark franchise and the net expenses incur Fed in operating the club at Harris burg part of last season, w-_--_-_-e Tener Warns Players. President Tener of the National League is making a tour of the Circuit League for the purpose of impressing upon the managers of the clubs the facts that they will be held responsi- ble for the conduct of their players during the remainder of the season. It is getting to the point in the cam- paign where certain clubs are begin- ming to see their chances for the pen- nant fail, and as a result the players are becoming careless in their conduct on the diamond and in their remarks to the umpires. President Tener has: sent out a warning that he intends to enforce order during the remainder of the season, and any players who fail to heed the warning will have to suffer the consequences. Columbia Will Stick, 'The fact that Jim Rice. the Columbia rowing coach, has signed a new con- tract for five years is an indication that Columbia will not abandon row- ing altogether. Since two of the Di rectors of the Rowing Association rec ommended the withdrawal from the Intercollegiate Rowing Association the graduates and undergraduates have taken the mutter in band and will make strenuous efforts to put the Blur and White back on the rowing map. Columbia may or may not have a crew in the intercollegiate regatta next year, but there is every indication that the sport will be continued and that a greater interest will be shown than has been demonstrated during the last few years. A Tribute to Be Proud Of. Fresident Harry N. Hempstead of the Now York Giants has paid a trib ute to Christy Mathewson that any ball player might well be proud of.

St. Lows at Brooklyn (2.) Over in Philadeluhis, the fans join Patricius Moran in chanting: \Ludy. where is your clubbing orb? \Ludy why don't you hit? \Ludy just swat that ball again ''Then onward we will flip.\ The failure of Luderus to hit within 60 points of his mark of a year ago is one of the reasons assigned by Pat Moran. et al, for the comparatively low percentage of the champions of 1915. j \If Ludy begins to smash 'em like he did last summer. just watch us go,\ asserts Moran. Wilson's Unique Alibi. President Woodrow Wilson's alibi for his greatest golfing fault-lack gf full concentration on the drive - is unique. The chief executive candidly de- clares that he learned the link game during his early days as a university professor-\when I was not so suffici- ently equipped with funds as to al- ways afford the luxury of a caddi¢.\ T pon the caddie-less golfer de- volves the task of watching where his drive lands. To do this the golfer must look up and out immediately after he finished his swing. This practice usu- ally results in a driver keeping track of his ball-but it ruins his game. Nowadays the President finds him- geif sufficiently wealthy to hire a fleet of caddies to look out for his drives, but despite this he still \persists in assisting the lookout. He hasn't been able to rid himself of the habit ac- quired in his less prosperous days. > And golfing experts declare that the little trick of the président's has burt his game to a great extent, that it has made him only an ordinary driver, whereas, under normal circumstances he should be a long, straight \shoot- which the great pitchers is held in New York, Mr. Hempstead said \I certainly wish him well in his new line of endeavor and trust that his name will stand as high as a manager as it has as a ball player and as a citizen of the United States.\ WANTED-EXPERIENCED SHIRT OPERATORS ON ALL PARTS.

The batter, however, offici- ally was credited with a single. 'The Wreck of the Athletics. No team ever was wrecked more completely than the 1915 champion Athletics. When the great MacKian machine swept through the American league like a hurricane two seasons ago, it was figured that Connie Mack would keep that grand collection in- tact for many years. But the Athletics of 1914-that al most peerless team-has been scat- tered to the four winds in the two | brief seasons that have come and gone f since then. Of the twenty-four \Roll of Honor\ men on the Athletic roster in 1914 only seven are still in the regu- lar lineup. FAVORITES ARE NOT KT ALL CONSISTENT Much Regret Among Those in the Habit of Following the Ponies. The boys who play the favorites on the New York race tracks are weep ing; gnashing their molars, tearing their thatches and otherwise register ing anguish. The favorites are not coming home in front with a degree of consistency. As a result, there is woe hereabouts. \truckers\ has begun to spal the pro- fessional gamblers who play favorites - and nothing else. Their once plump bank rolls have shriveled away like a sigb of ice in the July sunlight. Over a week's stretch, involving three days at Ocqueduct and three at the Empire track, outsiders won 22 out of the 36 races that were run. In nine of the 14 combats in which the favorites were victorious, the winning HOME OF THE BEST COAL p ~ \GENUINE LEGA, - 'M ¥ °0 oZivu horses was oddson; meaning that the collections for the \profs\ in these affairs were very small, indeed.

I bot back a profit of exactly $900 for winning the 14 bets, plus my $1,400 bet on those 14 races. Altogether, $2,300 was returned to me against my original outlay of $3,600, meaning that I lost $1,300 on the week, withough I picked 14 Winners out of #6!

YORK A NARROW ESCAPE, PLAT TSBURG. - While cérelessiv changing seats in a small canoe, four young men who are among the camp ers néar Valcour at this time, had a narrow escape from drowning in the lake Saturday afternoon at about one o'clock when in the Narrows between Valcour Island and the New York shore and opposite Gilliland's grove. The lake was practicaHy calm at the time. Among others on shore who saw the accident wis Robert Booth of this city who is in camp with his par- ents at their summer horie on thei Like Shore rosd. Mr. Booth's row boat was drawn up on the beach in front of their home at the time and after quigkly getting it afloat, he row. ed out to the floundering boys who however managed to || cling to their frail craft until help arrived.

The accident was due to the carelessness of the injured man who after entering a bucket to ride to the top of the structure became frighten- ed and jumped out, .* The accident occurred about nine o'clock.
