Crouch Is confined to his home in New London. suffering from severe bruises and sprairs of the legs. The accident happened about 2 o'clock. At the time Mir. Crouch was coming from the fair grounds when two automobiles. one behind the other, approached. The rear machine, own ed by MT. Barrows. startsd to turn out so as to pass the machine ahead, but MT. Barrows saw that the motoscy- clist was approaching from the oppo : site direction at fast rate of speed and that he was not looking ahead of him, but had his head turnsd to the ri6ing behind another not0rcyelist, fire a pistol, and he quickly brought his car to a stop, The occupants of both cars shouted warnings to Mr. Crouch. but it was toe late to avert a collision, and his motorcycle struck Mir, Bar rows machine with such force as to push the automobile away from the middle of the road into ths gutter. The impact threw Mr, Crouch from his machine and he lay stunned in the gutter.

Mr Barrows. said on Tuesday evening that in his opinion the collision would have been avoided if the Inotorcyclist haf been watching where he was going as he had eight feet between the auto mobile and the righthand gutter, whicf would have allowed him plenty ol | room to pass beth machines.

Ward Takes New York Franchise.
while I was in Toronto, and JUST
at a time when it seemed that Ihe
Toronto situation was hopeless, ana
was feeling mighty blue about Ihe
matter, I was introduced by mutual
friend to Robert B. Ward, the New
York baker. We got to discussing
baseball and I told Ward how anxious
I was to get into New York with
team, although it never dawned on me
at the time that Ward would come IN
with us.
The next day when I met Ward he
almost dazed me by saying:
Mr.. Gilmore, III go into the Federal
league with you. Pn back team IN
Greater New York
Wen you might know how de-
lighted I was. I raced back TO chi
CagO, took care of q few details IrON
that end, and then hustled to New
York where ] again met MI. Waru-

Brooklyn ball park was almost up, put

erciSed that option just rev hours
ahead of its expiring time That's the
history Of how capital was interested

The 1914 season will be our Ilrst

But wen show that we have the goods
And when the 1915 season comes
around the fans will find that we VIII
have as many stars in our ranks as
the American and National leagues
Wen get the players whose contracts
expire at the end of the 1914 season
because wen oUtbid the organized
people.
''The past two months have been
mighty strenuous for all those con-
cerned in the fight the Federals have
made But it has furnished US a lot
Of fun and we're mighty glad we got
into it This is the first real big busI-
ness fight of my life, and I find that
I like fighting. And so I'll keep 1t
up. We are not anxious about going
into organized baseball. We can stand
out alone and win and make money.
So what's the advantage Of becoming
business associates with ones enemies

with a smile, that Mrs. Gilmore ism I
