CHICK OWNE5S HAVE NO
THC0GHT OF QUITTING

The rumor monger has been hit
ting the Chicks hard the last few
days. The latest choice piece Of gos-
sip concerning the team is that the
owners will either quit or transfer
the games to another city. In addi-
tion to these rumors Cassidy is not
being encouraged in his efforts to on
force discipline in the club. Regard
ing the quitting and transfer rumors
it can be said that the team owners
have no such intentions. The Chicks

lose, and will play every home
scheduled game at home That is
certain.
There seems to be some misundar-
standing over the statement that Cas-
sidy is after a player-manager for
the team Mr. Brown says he knows
nothing of the matter. Before leav-
ing for York on Monday Mr. Cassidy
called the sporting editor Of THE
EVENING JOURNAL over the tele-
phone and volunteered an interview
In which be said he was after a
player-manager for the team Wheth-
er Pete has changed his mind on the
subject since giving out the inter-
view is not known to the person 10
whom he gave the interview. How
ever, the matter can rest until Pete

WASHINGTON, July 7.-An inter
state trade commission of five men,
bers TO control Industrial corpora
tons as the Interstate Commerce
Commission controls the railroads is
advocated in a bill introduced in the
Senate by Mr.. Newlands Of Nevada.
Mr.. Newlands in a statement accom-
panying the bill contends that the
Standard Oil and tobacco decisions
and the recent report on the steel in
dustry show the need of "an indepen-
dent quasi judicial and administra-
tive tribunal of great character and
dignity, as far reno ed from partisan
control as are the courts" The bill
would require all Industrial corpora
tions having receipts exceeding $5,-
100000 to make satisfactory state
ments as to capitalization, finances
and operations, such corporations to
be known as United States register
ed" companies Lack of such regis
tration is made an indication Of

PEACH CROP WILL BE SHORT.
None About Smyrna, While All Over
Peninsula the Cry is Short.

There was once, so the traditions
say. a complacent theory prevalent
over the Eastern Shore Of Maryland
and the three counties of Delaware
that nowhere else on earth could fine
peaches be grown except in the re-
gion lying between the Chesapeake
and Delaware bays Twenty-Five years
ago not only Baltimore, but Boston.
New York, Philadelphia and a score
OF other Eastern cities we're depend
ent upon the big Eastern Shore and
Delaware orchards for their peach
supplies. Many OF these orchards
contained 10000 trees, and not a few
were Of 10000 tree dimensions or
larger. One famous Eastern peach
orchard Of forty years ago Is said TO
have spread over 1900 acres. A
blight. known as the yellows, has
swept away most Of the big Maryland
and Delaware orchards. This season
there will probably not be a carload
Of peaches shipped from any station
on the peninsula, unless it be from
Wyoming or Ridgely. In Smyrna and
vicinity there are no peaches worth
speaking Of.
