CAMERA SHOWS HARVARD /
 WON BOAT RACE.
Considered the Greatest Struggle Ever
 Witnessed on the Thames.

The photographic exposition which the moving picture camera has re- gently revealed in relation to the Yale-Harvard finish at New London is a demonstration that should be seri- ousiy considered. and is a most im- portant innovation in the solution of questions that carry with them the element Of uncertainty and doubt
 The judges say that Yale won by a 1-5 of a second: that is, allowing 4 seconds to a boats length of sl feet, which in measurement would be 15.25 feet to a second. and one-fifth of which would be a fraction over three feet, as the difference Yale had to the good over Harvard when they crossed the line at the finish on June 19.
 The judges ruling is made with the human eye. and not measured by me- cfAnica1 devices. As they saw 1t, Yale won: as recorded by the moving pictur& camera, Harvard was the win nef fatcepting, of course, that the camera was placed at exactly a right angle to-sfhe course. at the point of ternainatiSn. Introducing the camera at the lihs of finish. is an excellent idea, ands should hereafter be a part ef the official niodus operandi in de- terfninings the winners in varsity re- gattas.

CLOSE RACE FOR
 FEDERAL LEAGUE PENNANT
First Division Teams Are See Saving
 Teams We'll Balanced.

The remarkable closeness of the Federal league race was strikingly il- frustrated by the fact that during the past week Buffalo held the lead for a hours, Chicago held 1t for two days, Buffalo dropped to fourth place, and then Indianapolis shot to the top. These four teams are now so closely punched that each day may witness change from first to fourth place. Meantime the four teams of the sec ond division are also equally well punched. And this quartet is so close ly upon the heels of the first division quartet that for each and every one of them not only a first division birth but also the lead is possible with any kind of sustained spurt. But so well equalized is the playing strength of this league that no one teams seems to be able to develop or secure suf- fcient strength to pull away from it's fellows, now that first St. Louis and then Baltimore, have been brought back to the bunch It would be pity to break up such a race with the su- perduous strengthening of any one team, or even several teams, by the injection of captured star players. and 1t is both a blessing in disguise and a tribute to the general quality of the players in this new league that every successful capture to date has failed to appreciably strengthen the club which pursued the tar-player phantom We'll balanced teams. and not individual stars make close races, which alone can create and retain public interest, and as a rule, the sea- son of a club is made or marred by it's position in the race and not by the number of star players in its team The trouble with the Federal league appears to be undue impatience with the necessarily slow progress in the matter of popu4arizing itself, and its delusion that money alone will accom- p1ish what the other leagues have been able to secure only by patient industry and steadfast perseverance. In the matter Of quickly establishing itself in short order the Federal league has broken all records in league building. not ever excepting the Players league in 1890; but beyond that nothing will avail except the kindly aid of Father Time.

BIG LEAGUES PREPARING
 FOR WAR WITH FEDS.
Collecting Big War Fund Which Will Be at the Disposal of the Ma tional Commission.

From an authoritative source comes the information that the National and American leagues are quietly collecting a huge war fund which will be at the disposal of the national com mission, already clothed with absolute authority to handle the fight with the Feds. in its own way. Each of the sixteen clubs in the major league cir cult is handing over per cent. of the gross receipts of each game
 It is said that the plant went into effect on April IA, the date of the opening of the championship season, and that it was secretly adopted at the suggestion of the commission early in March. Each club is scheduled to play seventy games at home, which means a total of 1,232 games that will have been subject to the end on October seventh.
 A rough estimate places the total amount of the new war fund at S2bo,- 900 of which the Giants, Red Sox, White Sox, Pittsburghs, Detroits and Cincinnati Reds. are expected to pay the Hons share. A week ago last Saturday, for instance, the Reds play ed to 32,0O0 admissions at the Polo grounds. The total receipts amounted to more than s25.ooo. Hence the commission received as its Der cent share about $1,25o-
 The Yankees also will contribute generously inasmuch as they have drawn larger crowds this year than were paid for 3e, $50 admission on ever. The Athletics as an example, May 29 and 30 and June l at the Po- To grounds, which netted more than s1.600 for the commission. If the weather Is pleasant on the Fourth, next Saturday, and on Labor Day, the fund will be materially increased It is not known how the commission will spend this money, but 1t is sur missed that some of it will be used to defray legal expenses to oe incurred by pressing injunctious and damage suits against the Feds.
 Since 1905 the commission has been accommodating another big fund In the shape of 10 per cent. of the worlds series receipts In this way S1S9,- 900 has been collected, out of which the expenses of the commission have been paid leaving a balance of about s10O, 900, which will be added to the new war fund It can readily seen, therefore, that Organized Baseball in tends to be well equipped for the fu- ture, in spite of the general belief that the Feds have already run their race
