FAST TRIP THROUGH BRITAIN
itinerary Enables Tourist " 'e Wishes, to DO" the !siands sh
 the Course of Seven Days.

How to do" the British Isles ID a week is the latest scheme for hustlers' dash around London flying de- scent on one or two cathedral cl1les' 2 race through Scotland and glance at Killarney-this what is open to +bose who want to see the country in a hurry. Tourist agents say that the idea is catching on with Amerl- cans Indeed it was an American who first suggested it.
 Assuming that the tourist begins his trip on Monday he devotes that day to the show places of London winding up with theater in the eve ming. On Thursday he goes to Wind sor and Hampton Court and on his return to London has time to go to a music hall. On Wednesday he leaves London for Peterborough, sees the cathedral and gets to York at three o'clock.
 At York the tourist has plenty of time to visit the Minister and other historic buildings before catching the 6:15 train to Hamburgh. He coaches through the Trossachs and takes steamer through Loch Katrine and Loch Lomond. Then the train to Glasgow.
 After dinner the hustler takes the night train out of Glasgow by way of Androssan to Belfast, reaches Dublin in the afternoon and takes the night train to Killarney.

Of public opinion will count far
more against any technical decisions
in the courts, even though such

IN point of fact it is well known
that the legality Of the present form
of contract between the league and
players was attacked, but its validity
in law and equity was sustained by
the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
in the Lajoie case. With respect to
the allegation that either the Nation

them as parties to the national agree
ment are illegal combinations or
trusts, in restraint of trade, or In VIC

The proposed meeting of the Ma

take place today. partly owing to the
lengthy meeting OF The National
League Directors and partly to the
fact that President Tener had 10
leave on an early train for the east.
When the announcement was made
that there would be no further meet

hurriedly packed their grips and left
