Kavanaugh Into Draft Rule Row
Galloway Writes Warm Letter

llie should go by the board the Look
outs ought to have him back
TAKING it up one side and down
the other, it looks as If there is
the making Of a very pretty little row
about thi- latest slap at the minor
leagues.
They are always prating about the
protection Of organized BASEBALL, -
said Mr.. Galloway. Now, III tell You
what this protection amounts L.,
when there comes time for it pt1-
tect-for instance, when the Federal
League begins cutting into the stu
alton
It's just like sleighing party
made up of some big fellows and some
lit'le fellows, with the wolves chasing
them. The big fellows drop the little
fellows overheard one at time, u
delay the wolves. That's tho kind Of
protection the big leagues hand out
to the minor leagues Protection
means the big leagues for themselves
and the-wel, the wolves take the
little lnes."

put over the new rule. 1t looks to us
as If nobody could have been there
except representatives. Of the major
circuits and the class IA leagues

Frank Whitney thinks he is one OF
the most abused fighters in the game
to-day. Frank fought Joe Mandot TO a
draw in New Orleans a couple OF weeks
ago. and now, instead of being in line
for several matches there, finds himself
without a bout on his list.
1t looks very much as If Frank Rus

favorites in New Orleans, have had
enough Of this Whitney boy. Frank
holds victories over both Russell and
Thomas. winning over Thomas in New
Orleans and besting Russell in Atlanta.
Jake Abel the Chattanooga boy IS
back in the boxing game again lake
battled Eddie Smith the tough East

In the other bouts Frank Bass

1t hurt Toms pride bit when he
was showed out into the cold, cruel

his feelings of indignation toward his
former bosses. but Tom hasn't minded
the cold much lately. In fact, he's
quite glad now that he was showed,
and thereby saved the hours of agony
that Governor John X. Tener, his sue
cessor has endured during the past
ten weeks or so.

San Francisco paper as saying
that he was going into the coun-
try of the enemy to battle Ad
Wolgast and that he couldn't eX-
pect anything but the worst of it

enough about Willies feelings in
this respect to ask him about the
matter yesterday. You see, they
figured out on the coast that as
Milwaukee, where Richie is to
box Wolgast next week, is practi-
-cally Ads home town. as he got
his first start there and is great
faVorite. Willie was taking big
chance on his honors in a no.

that the Chicago newspapers,
which generally are as fair as any
in the country, have as much to
say about the decisions as do the
Milwaukee accounts, and perhaps
considerably moro.

If It be necessary, that Willie
Richie has any fear about get
ting the worst of it in any respect
around here. He merely laughed
when he was asked about the
matter, said that he did not re-
member ever having had such
thing on his mind, never consid-
cred it at all and wouldn't at this
time. He considers further that
he has as many friends in Chi
caso and Milwaukee as Wolgast
has and that even IL the critics
did shade it in favor OF Wolgast
and thought that way sincerely

gium, the government of France
 and the Prince of Monaco.
 It was with actual difficulty
 that Anderson refused the insist
 ent offers of the King of Belgium
 for the immediate construction and
 housing of the city on a tract of land near Brussels. This site had been set aside by the late King Leo old for a somewhat similar purpose and the present king was most an Xious that Belgium should be the flu ture home of the worlds center of international efforts. The actual location of the city, however, An derson has decided must be select ed by the interparliamentary Union at The Hague after the various countries desiring to have it pres ent their respective claims.
 At Paris Anderson presented his plans in lecture at the SorbOune and later at a banquet attended by Leon Bourgeois and all of the leading political, literary, scientific and artistic men of France. The reception of it there was such that Anderson is hopeful that France and the United Staes, as the two leading republics of the world, may be able to find acommon ground on which they can take the lead in the matter. The last presentation of the project before returning to Rome was then made to the Prince of Monaco who already has world wide reputation for the internation- al research work he has done ill marine studies and for the immense marine museum he has erected at Monte Carlo. He declared that the perfected plans of Anderson mater ialized what had been the dream of his entire life, namely an interna- tional center for the arts, sciences, industries, religions and humanitar- ian work Of the entire world. His approval and support was as unqual-. flied as that of the King of Italy and other foreign monarchs to whor Anderson had previously presented his plans.
 The next definite step to be talk en by Anderson in the realization of his project is the calling of congress, probably in 1915, at which not only the nations of the world will be officially represented but all the great international societies and congresses of the world. Because of the fact that the governments will be represented at this it is neces- sary that the invitation to them be extended by one of the leading pow CTS. All of the governments to whom Anderson has already present. ed his plans have expressed their willingness to take the initiative lead, but it is precisely this that Andersen would prefer to have done by his own country.
