BOSS WHITE SOX
Connie Mack's Star Infeldel
Sold to Chicago and Will be
Made Manager

NEW YORK, Dec S.-Eddie Collins,
of Connie Mack's 100000 infield, will
manage the Chicago White Sox next
season Charles A. Comiskey, of the
White Sox, announced this afternoon
that the crack second baseman had
agreed TO sign q flye.year contract.
Collins Is TO receive a satisfactory"
cash bonus. Neither the amount Of
the bonus nor the salary we're men
toned by Comiskey and Ban Johnson
who confirmed the deal. Comiskey
said that Collins would have no in
reference in the selection of his play
ers."
Collins was sold o the White Sox
this morning, according to an an.
nouncement by Connie Mack Eddie
will succeed Jimmy Callahan at Chi
cago.
The purchase of Collins by Comis-
key Will result in general re-organ-
ization of the Chicago Americans.
Jimmy Callahan. who has been man
ager OF the team. will become prea-
dent OF the club, according TO reports
here, Comiskey refused TO be quoted
on this question more than to let 1t
be known that Callahan would re-
main with the club.
Among unconfirmed, but persistent
rumors this afternoon regarding the
fate OF the Yankees was one to the
effect that Jacob Rupert, wealthy
New York brewer, with q. X. of
American league bigher-ups. may buy
the American league stock held by
William s. Devery and Frank Farrell.
at an /.tside hgure OF 100000. In
case the deal goes through, IL is re-
ported Collins will be switched from
Chicago to manage the Yankees.

SECOND IN '15-MACK

PHILADELPHIA. Dec. S.--Asked
his reasons for selling Collins, Connie
Mack replied:
my reasons are my own and |
would not have sold him II | did not
think was doing the right thing. At
present haven't any definite plans
for the selection of successor to
Collins, but guess the team will be
strong In that position next season" +"
The Athletic manager intimated
that other changes in his club were
pending
Charles Comiskey. president OF the
Chicago Americans, not only Is
known to have paid huge price for
Collins, but he also agreed to take
over the ironclad contract Eddie ne.
gotiated with Connie Mack last sum-
mer. Mack stated the contract be-
sides naming a large salary, was 20
run for term OF years"
Several reasons are known TO nm
derlie the deal For sometime there
has been friction between Captain
Ira TT omas and Collins. Then, too.
since the Boston Braves scattered the
White Elephants laurels, Connie
Mack has been following plan OF re
trenchment. Collins drew one OF the
largest salaries paid by the Athletic
management.

LAWSON FROWNS ON
EXTRA PAY REQUEST

Corporation Counsel Lawson told
the board OF assessors, Tuesday morn
ing. that 1t was bad practice to ask
for extra compensation for Office
clerks at the end OF the tax valuation
period. For years the assessors have
always secured extra money for their
clerks.
THE ordinance forbids extra COM
pensation being allowed for work al-
ready done said the corporation
counsel IL would advise the board
to estimate how much the extra com
pensation will amount TO and go to
the aldermen in advance and ask IL.
The whole trend or the law seems TO
be against the granting OF extra COM
pensation OF this kind.
The board Is asking for two addi-
tional clerks for six months Asses
sor John Kohler explained to the ways
and means committee that one extra
clerk was needed to look after the
listing OF automobiles and another TO

WASHINGTON. Dec. S.-Departing
from the prepared text OF carefully
arranged address to congress. Presi-
dent Wilson this afternoon delivered
direct message to the business in
terests OF the country. in effect he
declared that the administration has
completed its business program, and
that, hereafter, business is to have a
rest from restrictive and corrective
legislation.
The statement was unexpected. For
a moment IL seemed that the point had
been lost on his audience But many
of the senators and representatives
who had been sitting slumped down
I'm their chairs, suddenly sat up and
showed plainly by their attitude that
they realized the great importance OF
the utterances OF the president, speak
ing as he did as leader OF his party.
IL was very plain that congress 5
realized that the president had writ
ten "finis" on his so-called regula.
tive program. Hereafter his an.
ncuncement was taken to mean that
business can proceed secure in the
knowledge that II 1t shapes it's affairs

itself confronted with sudden changes
resulting from new laws.

DRY IT IS

Washington voted dry Tuesday by a
substantial majority. Washington is
not alone in the dry column. Oregon,
Colorado and Arizona declared for
prohibition. In this state no other re-
suit could have been expected consid-
ering how thoroughly organized were
the dry forces. Workers in that cause
did not hesitate at any statement to
win converts. Not a stone was left
unturned to carry the election. Lo-
cally the closing of the saloons will
be seriously felt in many avenues of
business. 1t means vacant rooms, the
removal of numerous consumers, the
cutting off of revenue to many people.
It means the end of civic improve
rents for the time being at least, for
taxes are as high now as people will
stand for. If the measure is enforced
in 80 days, as it can be under the con-
stitution, it would mean confiscation
Of property and woeful hardship on a
great many people. However, busi-
ness in time will adjust itself to the
new conditions. A majority of the
people have decided IN favor of state
wide prohibition and all law-abiding
citizens can do is to gracefully accept
the situation and make the best of it.
