Washington, Dec. 1O.-When a new
representative comes to Washington
he finds other perquisites to his job
besides the $500 salary. He gets
free a spacious Office in one of the
most beautiful Office buildings in the
United States. This Office is fur
nished luxuriousIy for him with ma
hogany desks and tables, the latest
metal or precious wood filing cases,
rugs and the like, as well as with the
latest model of any typewriter his
sIeuographer may fancy. He needs
use only the coStIiest grades of bond
paper for his letter heads and enveI-
opes, for he is given a stationery al
lowance of 1925 per month, and pa
per, printing, pens, ink, inkweIls, and
all Office supplies are sold to him at
cost at the house stationery store. Ice,
water, light, towel and char services
are free
He is also given S1z5 a month for
clerk hire. Some few representatives
save this entire allowance by employ
ing no clerical help. If he fails to
spend all of his stationery allowance,
too. he retains what he saves On
the other hand. many represe natives
fail to make the s125 monthly pay
their Office help Under the law each
member is required to turn in to the
clerk of the house the names of cIeri-
cal help paid from the S125. In the
last session Representative Rainey,
of Illinois, turned in the names of
p clerks, all presumably being paid
from the $125 a month.

CHANCE TO LEAD
new YORK CLUB
NEXT SEASON
Reds Get Tinker and the Peerless
Leader Goes to American League
Forces in Big Swap.
FARRELL MUST PAY HIGH

New York. Dec. ll.-Frank Chance will
manage the New York Americans in 1913.
Arrangements for this proposition were
practically completed to-day in the trade
between the Chicago and Cincinnati clubs
of the National. League.
Garry Hermann put through the long
expected deal for Joe Tinker. The former
star shortstop of the Cubs will lead the
Rhinelanders the coming season. There
was little difficulty in effecting a deal
when Murphy and Hermann got to-
gether. Hermann gave up Outhelder
Mike Mitchell, Outhelder Knisely, Infield-
ers Corridor and Phelan. and Pitcher
Bert HUMPHREYS for Joe Tinker, Pitche'
G. Laudermilk. and Catcher Chapman.
This deal came as no surprise to fol-
lowers of organized baseball The Nation
al League could not afford to retain
Frank Chance in its roster.
The peerless leader of the Cubs is
through, so far as active service is con-
cerned. He will confine himself to the
managerial end OF the business in fu-
ture, and in such capacity demands an
exceptional salary. because he is eNcep-
tionally well provided with worldly goods.
Frank Farrell will pay Chance more
than he could get from any other club
in the big leagues. Ban Johnson, presi-
dent OF the Junior major association, IS
very strong for the former leader OF the
Chicago Nationals. The president OF the
American League pledged himself to get
Red Corridor, the third baseman.
from the Detroit Tigers in exchange for
Frank Chance who was claimed by Gin
cinnau and Pittsburg.
1t looks as If Johnny Evers had driven
a very advantageous bargain. because he
secured FIVE athletes for three. Mike
Mitchell is one OF the best outfeldrs in
the National League. The rest of the
bunch are inexperienced. but very prom
Using. Cincinnati gets Tinker. a short
stop above criticism and a man who
should prove an excellent leader. The
Reds also get Grover Laudermilk. a
right-handed pitcher. and Catcher Chap
man. neither of whom has been tried.
The American League has determined
to secure a competent manager for the
New York Highlanders at any price.
William Yawkey, chief owner OF the De-
troit Tigers, declared to-day that New
York was the solution OF American
League success. 1t vas Yawkey who
framed the deal to bring Chance. He
agreed to give up Red Corridor in a
trade between Detroit and New York,
which has not been announced as yet.
