Pcrrcctins Organization.

Meanwhile the officials OF the Ma
tional Antitrust League are perfect
Ing the details of their organization.
Commenting on the plan to conibal
high prices by abstinence from meat
DIR. Scharf, president of the league
said:
I'VE are glad to note the bcycotts
against meats in the different centres
of population OF the country. they
indicate desperate effort on the part
of desperate people to do something
for themselves at once.
These movements, being local and
somewhat efferyeseent, must necessa-
rilv lose their force. it will require
a national movement like ours to be
of permanent benefit to the people. We
propose to make our league an organ
ization so vast, so extensive and 80
powerful in numbers that there will be
no necessity for the laboring people to
pledge themselves to abstain from
meat for such long periods as thirty
and sixty days, which must necessarily
he great hardship to them. We aim
10 make our league so powerful that
the very fear OF a suspension in the.
use of any food product by the vast
body of consumers of the country en-
rolled under our banner will abso-
lutely prevent a recurrence OF these
extortinnately high prices"
The directors of the Anti-Food Trust
League will probably hold 4 meeting
tomorrow. 1t is probable that at this
time the tentatively drafted constitu-
ton and bylaws will be adopted and
plans be definitely laid for the active
campaign which Is to be made with the
beginning of another week.
Plan of Cnmpniyn.
BY Monday morning all the neces-
sary literature will be printed. Much
of it will be distributed through the
drug stores in different sections to
the people. a majority of the drug
stores VIII become enrolling stations,
whore citizens may secure member
ship cards in the league.
It is expected also that plan will
be devised for the formal affiliatton
with tho league of the Central Labor
Union OF Washington. with its $4,000
tions undoubtedly will join their mem
bership in the Anti-Food Trust move

DIR. Scharf pointed out this morning
that each member secured to the
league will represent not only the sin

listment of thci'chtire. ..family of the

as Kid Eiberfeld has as yet failed TO
show up, and when he does he may be
out OF the game half the time, il past
records are taken into consideration.
The New York Globe prints a few per
tinent facts regarding Elberfeld, as fol-
lows:
Familiar, indeed is the story that comes
from Garrett Park. Md. where Kid Elber-
field lives. The unfortunate young gentle
man has been unable to remain with the
Senators In their training quarters be-
cause OF illness in his family. but it is
added that he is In the pink Of condition,
and will play the game Of his life when
the bugle calls.
Ever since Elberfeid fought his way
into baseball he has been unavoidably
detained at home by the Illness OF some
member OF his family who Invariably be-
came indisposed about the time that the
Kid should start for the training camp.
Alas It is feared the Kid is working his
old tricks on Jimmy McAleers the new
manager OF the Senators. and it will be
interesting to see how the exist Loulsan
regards the deception
II is probable MeAleer viii overlook
the matter for a time. but those who
know the manager declare that when he
gets his eyes open he will give the tri-
fling Kid a lively time.
An inspection OF the Kids record is
amusing. Barrow, OF Detroit thought
for time that EIberfeld was merely
high spirited and needed coddIing. The
Kid sulked and started to whip Barrow
when the latter demonstrated. The Kid

"Oh. they don't know how to handle

admitted he didn't know how 10 handle
the Kid, either.
He has played good ball for me"
said Stallings, and he will do so again.
1t takes manager who understands the
Kid"
stallings thought before the close OF
last season that some other manager
might better understand the kid, and ne
gave ''Tabasco" the boot.
McAleer is a clever manager. and
thinks probably that the Kid has been
misunderstood and mismanaged. James
IS due for an unpleasant awakening II
the news from Garrett Park is authentic.
While the writer happens TO know that
Elberfeld's present enforced absence is
due entirely TO matters beyond his ell
berfelds) control. the fact still remains
that no manager in the big leagues has
been able to handle the Kid. and Jimmy
McAleer viii have bis hands fun this
year. Therefore. it is good thing that
Wild Conroy is available and gives prom
ise of putting up better game than he
showed last season.
So sure is President Tom Moves that
everything will be settled amicably be-
tween the club and Walter Johnson that
he said TO the writer last night:
Il am not giving Johnson a single
thought or worrying about him. When
he comes on to Washington. everything
will be smoothed out, and he will sign
up his contract for the season"
The Washington club plans a decided
innovation this season. Just as soon as
the boys return from Norfolk. Manager
MeAleer. Treasurer Rapley. and Secre-
tary Willie Fowler will be nicely in
stalled in an Office OF their own, where
the players. newspaper men. and others
can go for consultation and information.
While the exact location of the new Of
fee has not as yet been decided, the Office
will be in charge Of Mr.. Wayne Pierson.
who will act in the capacity of secretary
to Manager McAleer and Treasurer Rap
ley. Mr.. Pierson is a popular young man
about town, and his selection is a good
ems.
In deciding upon an Office OF this kind,
Manager McAieer will follow out the
policy OF giving news to the local papers
impartially. For instance, all that hap
pens up 10 5 o'clock in the afternoon will
be turned over to the afternoon papers,
and from that time until midnight all

publications.
