OXYGEN CURE USED
FOR PERITONITIS

NEW YORK, n. Y, July 13.-Re-
markab!e results attained in treat
ment of peritonitis with pure oxygen
at Beth Israel Hospital have raised
hopes that way has been found at
last to combat this dread disease,
which places the stamp OF death up
on 80 per cent. of its victims. a
striking illustration of the efficiency
of oxygen was given when there was
discharged from the hospital Mrs.
Anna Abias, a sufferer from periton-
tits, whose case upon Wr admission
was at first given up us hopeless
On the day when she was taken to
the hospital. two and a half weeks
ago, DR.. William Seaman cambridge
had been discussing with Prof. Hen
~ Mansfield Silver, the hospital chief
surgeon, theory that oxygen, IL
tried, would prove cure for periton-
tits.
An hour afterward DR.. Silver re-
ceived the summons to make heroic

he reached her side he found she was
suffering with general peritonitis and

Seeing that the old method OF
draining of the bacterial substanc,
in the region of the peritoanun
would be without avail in her case
he resolved to follow the suggestion
given by DR.. cambridge.
After an abdominal cut had been
made and the usual treatment given
the wound was so sutured that IL left
room for small tube. This tube was
connected with a tank of oxygen
which was run through water tC
thoroughly purify it, and after the
flow had continued for three minutes
the tube was withdrawn.
Mrs. Abias evinced such remark

MAJOR LEAGUES TO
MEET IN NEW YORK

For the first time in the history OF the
two big leageus the National and Amer
lean organizations will hold their annual
sessions in the same town. Ever since
the American League was organized 1t
has held it's winter meetings in Chicago.
while the National. of course, has stuck
to New York. President Johnson has been
importuned time and again to change his
Headquarters from Chicago to the metrop-
oils and had decided to do so when he
and Charles Comiskey became involved In
a feud. johnson then made up his mind
to stick to Chicago. saying that If he
moved then, Comiskey's friends would say
they had chased him out Of town.
Now, everything is harmonious In the
American League camp and New York
draws the annual meeting, ana IL woulo
be no surprise II Johnson shifted the
league headquarters in the near future.
The National League will meet as usual
at the Waldorf-Astoria. while the Amer
lean League will meet two blocks away
at the Wolcott. At the latter hotel Pres
ident Johnson has also engaged a large
room for the Base Ball Writer'S Assocla-
ton to hold its meeting.
In consequence of the two meetings. or,
rather, the three meetings, being held at
the same time. 1t is expected that the
gathering of persons identified with the
game will be the largest ever. with the ex-
ception of the recent worlds series.
1t will comprise the magnates OF six
teen big league clubs and the base ball
writer's of probably fifty big league pa

Even though changes in the base ball

ANYTHING Of the kind will be taken up at
the coming meetings, for rules and sched-
ules are always left to the spring meet
ing. Even then 1t Is doubtful If there
will be any radical changes. The Base
Ball Writer'S Association. however will
ask for re-editing of the rules which
are contradictory in several instances.
Outside of, this much needed simplifying.
not much will be done with the rules that
now govern the game.
Probably by the time the meetings take
place the national commission Will have
settled the case of the players who were
declared ineligible for playing post-sea-
son games in and around Chicago. In this
pa rttcular instance the commission must
either back down or begin to assess fines
by the wholesale. So many players are
involved that the fines probably will be
RENTED and new rules adopted to cover
such games.
The double umpire system and the ques-
ton of barring spectators from the play
ing field will be brought up by Mr.. Pull
liam at the winter meeting. 1t Is be-
lieved that no changes will be made in
the umpiring system next year-at least
not in the National League. One reason
is that umpires are so scarce that 1t is
difficult to engage even four good men, to
say nothing Of eight or nine. The Amer
lean League is partly committed to the
double system, but the league has not

Dahlen as Manager.

If President Ebbets can pull the strings
successfully William Dahlen will be the
new manager of the Brooklyns. Ebbets
says that he asked President Dewey of the
Boston Nationals some time ago i'll the
presence of Harry Pulliam and Charley
Murphy to let Dahlen come to Brooklyn
and that the Boston magnate agreed pro-
viding he could get another shortstop.
Thereupon, Ebbets says, he offered Phil
Lewis in exchange, but Dewey declined
Now, according to Ebbets Dewey is not
inclined TO let Dahlen get away. but the
Brooklyn magnate insists that he has Il
right to the veteran ShOrtstop by reason
of a verbal agreement with Dovey. Dahlen
lives in Brooklyn and has had several
confabs with iGbbets recently Dahlen
has never been manager. but his long
experience on the ball field may serve
him III good stead il he is finally secured
to handle the Brooklyn team Dahlen has
been playing in the big leagues since
1880. and last year his work with the
Bostons was OF u high order of excellence.

New Athletic Rule.

NEW YORK, November 2S-While the
athletic split between this country and
Great Britain was being announced to the
world in scare-head type the Amateur
Athletic Union, at its annual meeting,
passed a rule which will be of more
real benefit to track and field sports
than anything the governing body has
done in years. The big clubS-the New
York A. L. and the Irish Americans for
exampIe--do not like it, but the smaller
organizations look upon it as a real bless
ing. Perhaps in time the Mercury Foot
ers and the Winged Fistites will view
it in the same light, but for the next
couple Of years it will be a real yoke
for them to carry.
lete who wishes to change his club af-
filiations to compete unattached one year
after quitting one club before he can
sport the colors of another.
For years the n. Y. A. &. and the l. A
A. c. have depended upon the smaller
clubs for their track and field talent
Few athletes have been really developed
by either. For the most part they de-
pend upon the recruiting system. AS
soon as an athlete shows signs Of de-
veloping into a good point winner the
scouts of the two major clubs get after
him, and 1t is Il cinch that he Will not
hold out long.
Hitherto an athlete switching from one
club to another has been compelled to
compete unattached only a couple OF
months. Under the old rule he could
change his connections two or three times
a year. If he promised during the fall
and winter, while sporting the colors OF
one of the smaller clubs, to become a
star, it was easy for him to so arrange
matters that when the big outdoor meets
came around again he would be entitled
to wear the mercury foot or the winged
fist on his shirt. 1t was only necessary
to secure the consent of his club, and
this was rarely withheld. Now he must
compete unattached for an entire year
unless the national registration commit
tee gives him permission to do otherwise.

Joe Cans is no more than eliminated than
Blackburn. who has long been considered
too heavy for the lightweight division,
scales down to l35 pounds and was
strong at that weight in his bout with
Memsic. Blackburn has been trying for
three years to get matches with the crack
lightweiGhts They told him TO make the
weight. He did it for Memsic. but, ac-
cording TO several experts. he weakened
himself. Blackburn manager says his
man is strong at 133 pounds. The only
way for him TO demonstrate this is to
take on lightweight of real class.
