the league transferred this game to
Savannah.
Teams playing in Savannah have
as much chance to win as a crippled
horse in an automobile race, said
prominent baseball man to-day. The
whole thing has been framed up by
Boyer and it's good coin against phony
money that Savannah gets all of the
games booked to be played in that
city. Macon is up against a brace
game. and it will take some phenom-
inal playing to hold on to the rag
The opinion among those supposed
to know is that President Boyer is de-
termined that Savannah shall win the
pennant and that with Mace as UNI
pire, other teams have small chances
when competing with the Pathfinders."
When Columbia, with a team which
had been running hopelessly last the
entire season. won sixteen straight
games nothing was said, but when
Savannah, with a team that will de-
feat any team in the league a major
ity of games in "A series of nine on neu-

backed by thousands of dollars, and

proper thing would be to place the
child in some German family for a
while. But the difficulty for the father
is to discover just the right sort of
family-one who would receive the
child, one that he could trust with
the child, and, above all, one who had
a child 10 swap. The Partisan father
would be spending no extra money in
housing the German child and teaching
it French, while his own was eating
at a German table. Meanwhile two ma
tions We're understanding each other
better. Tt was a splendid scheme, if
only it could be carried out.
What was needed was baby broker,
as 1t were, an exhange, a clearing house
for children, an agency to keep tab of
families willing to swap children and
to engineer the swap. A man named
Toni Matthew saw the chance. and inn
proved it during the vacation period
last year. He had prejudices to over
come. After a deal of letter-writing he
won the Indispensable, not to say in
evitable, sanction of college professors,
of great authors, prominent lawyers
and members of Parliament. He even
succeeded in placing an order for five
children on trial. He devoted a whole
year to booming the enterprise. And
it was heart breaking work. He would
win the approval of a lot of English
or German or Scandinavian families,
only to find in his own land no readi-
ness of trade. And yet, in spite of
everything, he has succeeded in a
measure. The scheme is working and
Mr.. Matthew has decided to found
a society and push tho idea for all it
is worth.
This society is to be known by the
solemn title of international Exchange
for Children in the Study of Foreign
Languages and Customs" For honor
rary president it is to have M. DIES
tournelles De Constant for acting
president Pierre Baudin, former min
lister; for vice presidents, NM. Firm
cry and Edouard Petit, inspectors gen.
eral of public instruction. Matthew
himself will serve as general manager,
with the backing of deputies of the
chamber If necessary. Jules Siegfried
and a lot of others will look after the
financing.
I. An elaborate system Of correspond
ence has been drawn up already. There
is a precautionary exchange of photo
graphs first and a severe cross-exami-
nation of all concerned. The closing
details of the railroad Journey, under
suitable escorts in the case Of girls,
are easily looked after by the exchange.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK
FOR FALL TRADE
HEAVY STOCKS ARE BOUGHT.
SAVANNAH MERCHANTS ANTICI-
PATE A BIG FALL TRADE.

Three BrOughton Street Firms An
nounce That They Are Putting in
the Largest Stocks They Have
Bought Since They Have Been in
Business-Business Men Believe
That There Will Be Good Times in
There Is Heavy Buying-Number
of Merchants in the North Now
Securing Stocks.
Savannah merchants all agree that
the prospect is better for a heavy trade
this fall than ever in the history of
the city.
All the houses are putting in heavy
stocks of goods for the fall and winter
buyers. The merchants look for big
crop and plenty of money in this sec
ton of the country this fall. and are
preparing to meet the trade that is
certain to result.
1--WE are preparing for the biggest
trade we have ever had" said Mr..
Mayer. manager for Leopold Adler,
yesterday. II don't know much about
the conditions of the country, as we
draw our trade from Savannah, and
the territory within 200 or 300 miles of
here. but we are looking for a bigger
trade this year than last. Indeed, our
trade has always increased from year
to year.
This year we are getting in stock
and preparing for the biggest business
we have yet dome"
Mr.. Henry Levy of B. H. Levy,
Bro. & Co.. also takes an optimistic
view of the outlook for fall trade. He
says his firm is getting in a larger
stock than ever before.
II expect a much better fall trade
this year than last" he said yesterday.
THE country is in good condition, this
section is especially prosperous, and
trade is likely to be good in proportion.
We are expecting the heaviest trade
we have ever had, and we are prepar-
ing for it now. All agree, think. that
the outlook for a good trade this fall
is very promising"
Mr.. Emile Eckstein of Foye & Eek
stein, says his firm is getting in the
most complete line of furniture and
dry goods that has been carried yet.
I'VE expect to do the largest bust
ness we have ever had" said Mr. Eek
stein, and we are getting in a bigger
stock than ever before. The outlook
is very bright.
A large number of Savannah mer-
chants are in the North, now buying
fall and winter stocks. and the retail
merchants with one accord anticipate
a prosperous season.

Announcement of Great Interest to

Savannah Has Given Up.
When MIR Chase was in Savannah
he called on Mr.. Boyer and claimed
that he did not think his club was get
ting justice at the hands of the UNI
pire. He knew, he said. that Mr.. Boy
err had nothing ito do with this, but
that the judgments were all in favor
of Savannah.
All the summer baseball patrons in
Savannah who are loyal to their home
town have seen the team here get
the worst of nearly every game. This
was no doubt due TO the fact that
umpires were afraid people would ac-
cuse them of being afraid of the presi-
dent When Mr.. Chase said that he
did not think he was getting justice
he was promptly told that he could
either umpire the remaining games
himself or could select one player from
each team to umpire the series.
Partly because these criticisms have
become so unjust and annoying to
him Mr.. Boyer has decided to play
none of the postponed games. and the
double-headers scheduled have been
called off.
