NEW SYNDICATE IN NEWARK
Thomas A. Blaney the Leader IN
International Scheme.

Within n few days II is expected that
new syndicate will be formed with the
idea of buying the Newark International
League Baseball Club. succeeding the
croup Of Newark business men who have
Just failed In their efforts to handle the
proposition.
1t is probable also that Thomas A.
Blaney, one OF those identified with the
recent scheme, will be at the head OF the
syndicate. Nothing will be done until
after the election.
The failure of the party headed by
Philip Krimke. former stakeholder in
the Indians, and Moe Rechman, which
was announced yesterday, was due TO
their inability 10 obtain the necessary
financial backing II was their plan to
get "A number OF men to put up 5000
each The plan of those who will join In
the new syndicate will be 10 get half
dozen men to take over the entire hold
ings
II was said that there was not una
nimity OF opinion among the members
associated in the party which fell down
on the deal. Some Of these said the price

ciates i'm the Brooklyn National League
Club. said TO be in the nciShborhood OF

claimed IL was a fair figure. considering
that the club earned $500 last season,
when II won the pennant.
While the figure at which the Brooklyn
interests held their stock was not given
out. IL is believed that the total worth OF
all the stock held by Brooklyn and New
ark people Is set at $l39.1O0. The Brook

they say IS worth S2ls "A share.

that his plans have fallen through and

scheme.

SALVE FOR BASEBALL FANS
Nine Games and Lower Prices
Favored for World Series.

Chicago. Nov. 2-World series baseball
contests of nine games, at reduction In
the present scale of prices charged for
admission, are favored by Ban Is. John
son, president of the American League
and member of the National Commission.
President Johnson said yesterday he
believed that an extension In the number
of championship games at a reduced
price would be more satisfactory than the
present arrangement OF seven games.
Such an arrangement. he contended,
would permit more people TO see the
games at a lower cost. Many complaints,
he said, have been made that out-of-town
visitors pay large prices to see the
worlds series games to the exclusion of
home town fans" who have supported
tie team all season and who cannot at
ford the high prices.

SOCCER GAME OFF
Columbia Eleven to Postpone
One of Double Header.

The Columbia University soccer eleven,
which was schedrSd TO play double
header on Tuesday, was forced to call off
one of the games yesterday. because il
found IL impossible to obtain the per-
mission of the university authorities.
According TO the plan, it had been the
purpose for the Blue and White to meet
the Montclair Athletic Club on Tuesday
morning to play off the game postponed
by rain a week ago. and TO meet the
Bensonhurst Field Club eleven in the
afternoon. Both games were to be played
on South Field.
The university officials decided, how
ever, that as both cor tests were In the
Field Club League series, 1t would be
impracticable for the students TO play
two hard games on one day, with rest
of not more than three hours intervening.
When the Montclair-Columbia game will
be played has not been decided. but 1t
will probably not be until after the close
of the regular league schedule.

However, the crowd was not disappoint-

Uhlan's absence. Nathan Straus, owner
