Special Dispatch to The Star.
DETROIT. September 26-Matty McIn-
tyre for "Gavvy' Cravath. This trade Is
now under serious consideration by the
Detroit and Brooklyn clubs
In fact. negotiations have been opened
ever since Detroit lost the draft on era
vath and Brooklyn beat the Tigers to the
player.
A number of obstacles must be over
come in order to put through the consum-
nation of this deal. In the first place.
the Detroit club must secure waivers on
Mcintyre. Seven clubs must be notified
before Mcintyre qualities for a trade with
a National League club.
Whether or not all seven clubs Will
waive remains to be seen.
On the other hand. Brooklyn must go
through the same process in the National
League Brooklyn drafted Cravath from
Minneapolis, which club has the American
Association pennant cinched this year.
Cravath hit at a terrific clip, and Is close
to the 400 mark in batting.
Cravath has been In the big league be-
FORE Boston originally had him, and he
was sold to Chicago. He made a hit one
day against George Mulin. robbing George
of a no-hit game. He was with the White
Sox team but lasted two weeks only.
Mcintyre has been with the Detroit
team since the fall of 1903 Matty started
out with Augusta. Me-. in 1901. The Phila-
defphia Athletics signed him. but allowed
him to go to Newark. Buffalo secured
him from Newark, and Detroit bought
him from Buffalo.

Some base ball fans are unmerciful.
Snodgrass, McGraw's young center field
er, who has been sensation with the
bat this year, and deserves unstinted en-
couragement. has been subjected to
abuse of late because of a
slump with the stick. He has not had
sufficient experience to be proof against
such heartless comments. which have
been hurled in his direction by, grand
stadn wiseacres. Uncalled-for criticism
never helped any young ball player. But
McGraw isn't going to allow Snodgrass
to lose heart. The Giants manager says
in time Snodgrass will make his critics
hide their heads or throw up their hats.

THE NEW NAPOLEON'S CON
TINENTAL SYSTEM.

Time and again the high protection
lists have been warned that some day
they would pray for rain and bring
a freshet, and now the evil hour has
come. Speaking in the uppec house
of the French parliament, Senator Jean
Darbot said on Monday that it would
be easy enough TO bring about an en-
tente with the various nations to sup
press the special tariffs and adopt a
conventional one. Boldly and de-
family he announced, however, that he
was not in favor Of such a course. He
strongly recommended "a coalition of
all European countries" IN order. as he
put it, to fight against the competition
Of the United States"
Let Payne and Aldrich tremble. As
students of history they cannot be un-
aware Of what it means to revive the
continental system directed this
time against the United States. When
it was previously attempted it was un-
der the guidance of the Corsican Son
Of the Morning, and was directed
against England The powers of Europe
agreed, with sign and seal, ard the
tight little island" was condemned to
starve herself into submission.
OF course, candor compels the admis-
sion that trade and traffic went on
much as before, and that when the
Russian Emperor finally broke faith
it was to lure the contriver of the
plot TO the fatal SHOWS Of Moscow. But
perhaps the new Napoleon has a more
effective means of disciplining the
United States than his predecessor had
for chastising England. Success ol
failure, the issue lies with fate and the
future.
In the meantime the tariff experts
who stood the schedules on their head,
before revising them downward, may
stand off and contemplate the danger
they have brought upon this country

A CHANCE TO AVOID USUAL
SUMMER ACCIDENTS.

That knowing how TO swim has
double advantage is admitted. In the
first place it means knowing how to
save ones life. In the second place it
is one of the best forms Of exercise
known
The proposition Of the Y NJ c. A TO
teach any Washington boy who wants
to learn to swim is an unusual oppor-
tUnity.
Water week VIII begin on March
28. It was planned on the supposition
that any boy can learn 70 swim IL a
week Beside the free use of the big
pool the associations offer has three
advantages:
A physical examination viii precede
the instruction
A competent trainer VIII teach proper
strokes
Safeguards viii be provided to pre-
vent accidents.
These provisions clear away any pos
sfble objection TO the swimming course
on the part Of anxious parents.
The men in charge Of the associa-
tion's plans know what they are doing
and why they are doing it. It is a
pretty safe proposition to trust boys in
their hands.
1t is 20 be hoped the action Of the

number of spring drownings, giving the

AN OLD FRIEND is AGAIN
PASSING AWAY.

Opr old friend, ~the original Dead
wood Dick is dying. As a rule, he
dies about twice every year, but for
some cause, perhaps owing to the panic
or the high cost of meat, he has died
onlysthree times in the last four years.
This time he is passing away in Venice,
Cal-- at the. age Of sixty-ffve. "He Is in
the home Of Mayor EsI1ins, who was
his submessenger on the bullion run
twenty years ago. He has only one
eye"
The man who wrote the "Deadwood
Dtelc'' etOries used to smile every time
tne "original Deadwood Dick passed
sway. The author of a series that
appealed to thousands Of Juveniles and
20 many grUwn-ups was Edward L,
Wheeler. According to him-and he
should have Inown-the original Of his
story was Edward Harris, from a staid
New England family" Mr.. Wheeler
has been dead for some years; Dead
wood Dick" continues to die irregularlv
but comparatively often It may be
stated that the stories themselves were
first issued in 1877, and those Of that
vintage are being reprinted today in
New York city and sold T. large num-

Undoubtedly the fact that Dead

MANY different names Is Of considerable
aid in maintaining the circulation of a
very famous hlood-nnd-thunder series
