Must Pay Before Shipment.

New York, Aug. 14.-Emphatic dec
larations have been made by foreign
exchange managers that England,
France and Germany would have to
guarantee payment for American
wheat and other staples and commod-
tiles before shipment. The bankers
have adopted resolution to the effect
that the governments of those coun-
tries must take risks regarding me
shipments of exchange if they expect
American grain or other commodities
Radical measures are deemed neces-
sary to preserve the integrity of the
American business interests, which
compel a complete change in the
method of handling foreign exchange
in this country.

TRIPLE ALLIANCE
Of B. B. Powers
possibility That American,
National and Federal May
Make Treaty.
(By Frank G. Meeke.)

New York, Aug. 1.-THE rank and
Tile of fans are hoping that the next
world series combat won't be between
the Giants and Athletics. They've
grown a bit tired of seeing two clubs
fight it out in the October haze, and
they are pulling for Some other club
to horn into" the big doings.
If the Cubs and Athletics had
another World series duel, or the
Giants and Tigers, or Giants and Red
Sox, fandom would be somewhat
satisfied But the great mass of fans
would rather see the Red Sox and
Cubs, Or the Tigers and Cubs, than to
see either of the teams that battled
last year in action against this
year
The reason for this is that in the
case of series between the Giants
and Athletics, the fans take it as a
foregone conclusion that the Athletics
again will conquer. It's sort of an
old story repeated-and they want to
hear aew one. They'd rather see
two totally different teams in action.
Signs of baseball peace are abroad
in the land, according to those who
claim to be on the inside. Both
factions are tired of war that has
given no one but the players the
best of it. If they decide suddenly to
get together, the unsigned ball play
err who has been holding out for the
magnates to bid higher and higher
for his services, will arise some a. m.
and discover that all the world is sad
and dread. There'll be only one
thing left for him to do-to sign up
at any old salary that he can ct.
And you can bet on it that if the
American, National and Federal
leagues from a triple alliance, they'll
see to it that the ball playes who
hasn't any contract for 1915 will get
one-the said contract calling for
about six kopecks a month.
Frankdom asks just what would
happen in case the Feds and Organ
lied baseball do get together.
well they keep the three leagues
intact, or will they form two twelve
club leagues?
Such question is one that only
the baseball leaders can answer. Inc
baseball critics seem to think that
two twelve club circuits would be
far better than three eight club
leagues, but some of the big baseball
leaders say that such plan would
not be feasible
The Federal league circuit would
have to be changed somewhat in 1919
if it went into Organized baseball.
Three major league teams cannot
make a profit if housed in one town.
At least, not for several years 10
come. This would mean-in case
there is an amalgamation-that the
Feds would withdray their clubs from
st. Louis and Chicago. shifting the
franchises probably to Cleveland and
Detroit.
Kansas City is not baseball town,
and whether the Feds paddle thelf
own canoe next year. or whether they
asst in propelling the organized
craft it seems certain that the town
will be dropped from the circuit and
the franchise shifted to some other
CITY. indianapolis has been someth-
ing of a disappointment to the Fed
eral league officials and its is pos
sible that the franchise will be trans
ferod from that city to cincinnati
next year, whether the Feds are IN
or ont of Organized baseball.
