Washington, June H.-Critics and
friends of the administration joined in
sharp 10 minutes prosperity debate in the
Senate Saturday. Senator Smoot held
the tariff responsible for alarming con-
ditions, while Senator Owen blamed three
groups of financiers in New York.
Senator Smoot stirred Democratic lead
ers by predicting, on the basis of the
treasury's statement of foreign trade dur
ing May, that If the present trend OF
business conditions did not change within
the next few months there would be
disastrous results He said the report
showed that imports during May increas-
ed 500 600 and the exports decreased
So, 00o, 900 over May. 1913 He read news
paper clippings of the recent large gold
shipments to Europe
Senator Hollis. maying the first reply
for the Democrats, said foreign districts
of American stocks, arising from the in
vestigations of the New Haven aid of
the st. Louis & San Francisco Railroads,
had resulted in American stocks being
.urned back on this country and the ne
,essity of the sending of gold to Europe

Senator Owen Declares Wall St.
RESPONSIBLE for Lack of Business

Senator Thomas suggested that some
European country must have profited by
the business America was losing, but Sem
ator Smoot responded that the treasury
report did not enter into that question.
Senator Smoot added that he was in IA
vor of American labor getting the bene-
fit of the business rather than foreign
labor.
Senator Thomas suggested that Eu-
ropean laborers were crowding every
ship to America in order to escape the
prosperity abroad which the Utah
senator was picturing.
Senator Owen advanced the state
ment that three groups of men with
headquarters in New York were re-
sponsible for present conditions. He
said these men controlled S22,oO0,oOo.0 600
virtually all the railroads and every
big industry in the country.
These men can forbid the railways

OF Third MAJOR LEAGUE
next YEAR TO COMBAT INVASION
BEING MADE BY FEDERAL LEAGUE

New York, June 21.-That there will
baseball, operating after the close of
the present season, is almost assured
Saturday. after a lengthy session, in
which all the presidents of the Nation
al League clubs and several represen
tatives of the International League
took part, the National Commission
virtually decided that a third major
organization was necessary to combat
the invasion of the new Federal
League. Gov. Tener, August Hermann
ana Ban b. Johnson, comprising the
National Commission, were in a recep-
tive mood when a delegation from the
International League called upon them.
The Interna tional delegation were
President Barrow, J. D. Mccartney, To-
ronto; Jack Dunn, Baltimore, and j.
j. Stein, Buffalo
Two propositions were submitted by
this committee. One of these was re-
quest for financial assistance for some
of the clubs and the other that the
draft privilege of the major leagues be
eliminated so that the International or
ganization could retain or sell its
players instead Of having them taken
at the waiver figure. The latter plan
seemed the more feasible to the men,
bers of the commission, and the prop
osition of. President Johnson to form
a new major league. to be composed
OF four clubs firm each of the 1nterna-
tional League and American Associa-
lions found immediate favor.
President Barrow, the spokesman of
the party. announced after the meet
ing that the National Commission had
considered their request favorably and
a final answer would be given within
10 days.
Later on Ban Johnson said:

New York, June 21.-Quietly, lest at
tention be called to the disasters which
earned for it the name of being the
most dangerous railroad in the Unit
ed States, the New York, New Haven
& Hartford has placed in effect new
book of rules for the operating of all
trains. They are described by rail-
road men as the most drastic of any in
force on American railroads.
The new rules are the work of a
committee of operating officials APP
pointed almost before the Wallingford
wreck in which % were killed and 80
injured was cleared up and before
Howard Elliott had been seated as
chairman of the New Haven.
New Precautions
That wreck as well as many that
preceded Il was caused by failure to
properly protect the rear end of the
Bar Harbor express, a failure in turn
due to too much confidence in the pow
er of block signals to prevent acct
dent. The new rules are calculated to
eliminate this danger in the future by
compelling all train hands to SO as

Berlin, June 21.-The fact that
Hohenzoiiern princes have never been
given to long engagements leads an
interested public to believe the mar
riage of Emperor Williams fifth son,
Prince Oskar, to the Countess Ina
Marie Won Observation-Disclosures will
be celebrated shortly. No date, how
ever, has yet been set. The engage
ment was announced. as reported by
cable, on May &c, to the surprise OF
Berlin society, since 1t means a
morganatic marriage, contrary to the
traditions of the Hohenzollern family.
There are plenty Of instances where
that tradition was broken, but this
will be the first time in sixty years
that any of the Hohenzollerns have
married beneath their rank. King
Frederick William III himself did so
in 1924 when he married the Countess
Harrach after the death of his first
wife. Prince Adalbert, nephew OF
Frederick William ", did so when
he married the Viennese dancer,
Therese Elsler. Another and the lat
est instance is that of Prince Al
brecht, brother of Frederick William
w, who married Fraulein Won
Rauch. daughter of a former minister
of war, in 1883.
The Empress Is widely credited for
obtaining the Imperial sanction OF
Prince Oskar's intention to marry the
Countess Ina, for she believed 1t to be
a true love match. She knew the
young woman well, for she had served
as her maid of honor until 1913, when
the close attachment between her ana
the Prince is said to have resulted In
her resignation of service. She is
described as tall and graceful, beauti-
full and of a sunny temper. While
her rank is that of lower nobility, her
family lineage has been traced back
as far as 1854 TO one Bernhardus de
Bassewicze, and the title of Count
dates from 1926. She undoubtedly
will win some new title when she be-
comes the Emperor's daughter in law
She may make her husband a large

CROWDS DUCK men
MILITANTS IN AN
ARTIFICIAL LAKE
Vent Wrath on the
Disturbers of
Speech

London. June 21.--A nearby arti-
fetal lake gave a big crowd unique
opportunity to vent their wrath on
suffragist interrupters of David Lloyd
George, Chancellor of the Exchequer,
who spoke at Denmark Hill, in the
south of London, but chivalrous dis
elimination was employed as between
the men and women disturbers, the
women being chased off the grounds
and the men being ducked in the lake.
Clergyman Fared Worst
The Rt. Ron. Thomas J. Mcnamara,
a Radical member of the House of
Commons, who presided, appealed to
the assembled multitude to leave 1t
entirely to the stewards to deal with
the disturbers. but the request was
disregarded. The man who Jared worst
was a clergyman, said to be a MEM
Der of Sylvia Pankhurst's East End
army.
Undeterred by the fate that had be-
fallen other disturbers, he demanded
in stentorian tones to know why the
government had not given votes TO
women His clerical garb seemed to
produce the effect on the crowd that
a red flag does on a mad bull.
They rushed and carried him off his
feet and pitched him headlong into the
lake. from which. after frequent COM
plete dimensions, he was rescued in a
half drowned condition by a man in a
boat
In his address the chancellor made II
clear that the home rule amending bill,
which will be introduced in the House
of Lords on Tuesday next, simply will
repeat the governments original offer of
the temporary exclusion from the home
rule bill of such counties in Ulster as
vote for exclusion.
Next week." he said, there will be
introduced In the House of Lords, in be-
half of the government bill which VIII
give every county in Ulster the option
of voting itself out of home rule until
two general elections have taken place
in this country.
''They need not parade, drill and
threaten to shoot anybody in order to
escape home rule If they don't want it
all they shall have to do Is TO go to the
polling booths and vote themselves out
of it"
With reference to the indefinite exciu-
sion of Ulster, Chancellor George said
that that was advocated by Sir Edward
Carson. the Ulster Unionist leader, in or
der TO defeat home rule for the rest OF
ireland as we'll as Ulster. For that rea-
son the government would not recog-
nize it.

THE plan to form a third major
league is practically contaminated.
After the meeting Gov Tener said
he would return home tonight, but that
the other two members of the com
mission, Johnson and Hermann, would
remain here until Monday to arrange
details for the completion of the plans,
which had only reached a tentative
stage.
President Dunn of the Baltimore
Club said:
Il am very much pleased with the
outcome of our visit to the commits
sioners and feel assured that the
scheme will work we'll. for the better
ment of my clubs condition. Some
thing has to be done. Some radical
movement was necessary to relieve the
existing conditions, and President
Johnson's proposition to my mind, fills
the bill"
None of those who were present at
the meeting would consent to name
the clubs which would be taken into
the new organization, but it was the
general impression that these would
be Baltimore, Buffalo. Newark and To-
ronto of the Internationals and Indi-
annapolis or Columbus of the Amer
lean Association. Just what would be-
come of the other clubs in these
leagues was not even suggested. but
it was thought that they might be
formed into a new minor league If
geographical difficulties could be elm
mated by transferring franchises or
otherwise.
That the new idea had met with
general approval was apparent when
some Of the club owners got together
after the conference and talked of a
three cornered post-season series for
