The accounting department of the

to the work formerly done by the di-
vision of disbursements and the ex-
aminer of accounts Nothing more
than consolidation and a slight con
traction of working force will be
needed to make them ready for their

All departments will be directly re

there will be about 1000 American
white employees ON the canal, and
perhaps few hundred negro la

Feds to Have Some Local Park
Plans Are Approved.

President Weeghman of the Chi
cago Federal League club yesterday
approved advance plans for the
grandstand to be erected at Addison
be made to begin construction with
in a week. 1t is not expected that
the stand will be completed by
the time the season opens, but it will
be in such condition that the fans
can occupy it.
The plans as drafted are for a sin
gle-deck grandstand giving a seating
capacity of $4,000, of. which 5000
will be box seats. Paviions at either
end of the stand will give an addition
al space for 1000, and with the
bleacher space to be set aside there
will be room for 10000 bugs to squat
and watch the teams of the new
league.
Home plate will only be 80 feet
from the grandstand, bringing the
fans closer to the actual scene of
conflict by ten feet than in other big
league establishments. There will be
a depth of 400 feet from the plate to
the center field fence, deeper field
than most major leagues boast of.
This means that outfielders will not
be hampered by lack of room and will
be free to chase flies until they drop
The main entrance will be located
at Clark and Addison streets. There
will also be exits on the east side of
the field leading to the Northwestern
"L." The stand will be so arranged
that a second deck can be added if
the patronage warrants.

Tener Has Wrong Idea-Fans Want
Sport, Not Politics.

President Tener of the National

politics so long that he believes ''the
organization" will always be victor
ious. Any one outside of the ''circle"
hasn't chance of coping the plums,
according to the doctrines that have
been dinned into him by the oily deal
ers of the Keystone state.
This feeling showed yesterday
when he issued a statement at the
meeting of the National League to
the effect that sentiment Of the fans
would all be with the so-called or
ganized wings of the game. and that
the Feds would suffer from lack of
patronage and be forced out of bust
ness.
Boies Penrose, a power in the now
emasculated Republican party, and a
political sponsor of the governor,
thought the Organization" would
have walkaway in the last election,
but he found that the voters went
where they thought they would get
the best results.

is provided, and it makes no differ
ence whether the park is branded
with the organization stamp or not.
Of course, it is not implied that the
two older leagues will not furnish
good sport They have done so in
the past, and will continue along that
line in the future, as it is the only
way they can make money. But if
the Feds also provide good contests,
with star players in their lineup, they
will get their share of the patronage.
The average fan cares little about
politics. He wants to see
the thrilling catches and hear the re-
