NEW YORK. August 9.-Manager
Frank Chance. who Is one Of the games
best known disciplinarians. declares that
the Federal League indirectly has worked
havoc with a managers control over
players. He holds the Feds responsible
for the capers Of Ray Caldwell his
pitching star. Furthermore, he says
that since the outlaws put in their ap-
pearance players have been much
harder to handle than they have been
in a long time. Chance was discuss
ing the subject recently and during the
little chat the Peerless Leader made
known some interesting data not only
his club as well.
Managing q ball club these days
isn't like it was when I was with the
Cubs" said Chance "Since the Feds
came it's a case Of the ball player tell
ing the manager what to do instead Of
the manager doing the debating Per-
sonally I have had little trouble, for
my ball club is pretty we'll behaved.
A number of managers have come to
me and asked me II I was having any
trouble handling my men. Quite a few
have told me that they have had, and
that they attribute the state of affairs
to the Feds.
Discipline Necessity.
I'm base ball. just as in everything
else where a body Of men is brought to-
gether there must be discipline. 1t is
this that has made the game the greatest
and cleanest in the history OF sport
Base ball can't do without It. No doubt
some folks have criticised me because
have taken SO much money away from
one of my stars but that Is the best way
to hold an unruly player in check. 1
don't like to fine any of my men, for I
feel it deeply when 1 have to take his
money. 1t hurts me just as much as it
does the player. When l fine a man you
can rest assured it Is because he has
broken my rules.
There are two ways to discipline-the
right and wrong way. I don't believe that
manager should assume the role OF a
car and make his men feel that they are
slaves. A leader can be strict and at the
same time keep his players affection. Ball
players are human and expect certain
liberties. just like other men. It's when
they overstep their bounds that 1t is time
to act and impress on them the need OF
observing rules created for the benefit
Of the club.

In order to obtain some much-needed
practice Mclaughlin allowed c. ]. Griffin,
also from the coast. to take set In their
contest on an obscure court. Griffin proved
the strongest opponent Mclaughlin has
met so far in the tournament and the
champion permitted the match to run
we'll into the fourth set before he called
a halt. 1t was the second time Nc
Loughlin has lost set since he came
east In the spring.

NEWPORT. R. l.. August 29.-The lawn
tennis championship tournament narrowed

William J. Clothier of Philadelphia.
Fottren will meet Williams and

semi-finals today. Clothier fell before
the champion in straight sets in the all
corners play last year, and as Williams
last night was a 3-to-2 favorite over
Fottrell many followers Of the game pre-
dicted that the finals this year would be
repetition of those of 1918, when Nc
Loughltn found Williams his only op-
three sets to one.

tween Williams and his Davis cup team
mate, Karl Behr, was disappointing,
After Behr's rally and victory over MUIR

proved unusually erratic. especially in
the first two sets. His net work was
weak and Williams passed him without
difficulty. Never before on a Casino

cupied about an hour. for Behr rallied
In the last set and at one time had a
lead of four games to one. Then he fell
back and Williams quickly brought the
games to deuce and few minutes later
ran out the match.

London. With the object Of re-

decided upon the installation Of ten

astonishingly economical in the mat

are capable of pumping between them

can pump 10000 gallons q minute. or

ALARM IN MARINE CIRCLES
Many Ships, Mostly German, Have Not
Reported and Their Where
abouts Is Unknown.

New York.-With war formally de-
clared between England and Germany
there was keen interest in marine
circles regarding the movement of
transatlantic steamships, particularly
the German liners, which are scurry-
ing to port to avoid possible capture
by warships of hostile nations.
The arrival of the treasure laden
Kronprinzessin Cecilie at Bar Harbor,
Me-, led to the belief here that
another North German Lloyd liner
which has been missing, the Kaiser
Wilhelm II, may turn up Unexpectedly
in some other American port.

The Kaiser Wilhelm II has not been
heard from since touching at Cher

If it has not been captured, the
agents suggested that it may not have
defined It's position by wireless for
fear it would be taken, as the Cecilie's
captain reported the proximity Of
French warships.
The German steamship agents here
are taking every preoaution to pre-

cars all night In cramped positions.
There was great suffering, but the
