 NO ROOM FOR
 THREE LEAGUES

Chicago. Oct. 2-Club owners. of the Federal League are ready to make peace with organized baseball on any fair and honorable terms according to a statement made here yesterday by James A Gilmore, president of the Federal organization.
 We stand ready to meet organized baseball half way on any peace pro position, Gilmore set forth in his statement, efbut I don't want to place our organization in a false light. We are not standing on the doorstep, hat in hand. The baseball war could be ended promptly and hon orably if President Johnson of the American League and his, associates would deign to meet us as business men and dis cuss the subject as a. business proposi- 1Ion."
 President Gilmore asserted his be- lief that peace would come to baseball " neither men identified with the Ma tionaI and American Leagues wanted it or not Ih ere is no room for three 4na5or leagues, he asserted. and be 1ieved one must fall.

For the Yale football regulars yes terday only skiruaish activity was or dered. They spent two hours on Yale field drilling new fornations but were excused from scrtmnaging. The sec- ond and third teams batt1ed through 2o-mtnute half which displayed con- siderable cratic football.
 Captain Ta1bott did not appear in uniform but reported late in citizens clothes. Driscol1, two years ago fresh- man end, was given his place at left tackle and Cakes returned to left guard, after two days absence, his knee injury from the Maine game proving merely nominal.

M M'CRAW AND
 MATTY WILL
 COACH BRAVES

Though John McGraw has lost the pennant to George Stallings he is pulling very hard for the Big Chief of the Braves to win the coming series for. the worlds title from the present Worlds Champion Athletics. Like all other National league men, McGrSw Is very anxious to see the old league put over a Worlds Series winner, as no National league club has won the big series since the Pirates downed the Detroit Tigers in 1909.
 In order to- assist the Braves as much as possible, McGraw will lecture to the Braves during their visit here on the strength and weaknesses Of the Athletics, as he found them in the blue ribbon events of 1911 and 1918. The entire Boston team will attend the lecture.
 Mathewson has also volunteered to take over James, Rudolph and Tyler and acquaint them with all the weak nesses Of the Athletic batters, and the kind of delivery that their star hitters are most likely to kill.
 istaIlings says he will have no spies watching the Athletics. He is pretty familiar with the club, as he opposed them in many hard games in 1910, when the Athletics beat out his Yan- kees for the pennant. The 1910 club was Mack's first worlds champion and there have been few changes Ill the club, with the exception of Mc- Innis and Eddie Murphy replacing the. veterans Davis and Dan Murphy.
 Staalings says he does not believe in letting his team rest up, and will con- ti1lue to drive it hard, right to the fin ish i He thinks that he can keep the team in better condition by making them light for games than letting them loaf, as the regular Athletics are now doing. X

(By Wa~ng.)

Coach Hinkey of the Yale eleven stole a march on his opponents when he imported members of the HaIni1 ton Tigers, 8, Canadian rugby team. to practice against the Yale squad. Hin key was wise enough to see that only the most advanced style of play would be successful this season. Therefore he decided that something must be done to help the Yale players attain perfection in passing At Yale the forward pass has always seemed a, haphazard play because the players were never sure in handling the ball.
 The Canadian athletes practiced against the Yale boys at Madison and then coached the youngsters in the art of passing. The result was that Saturday was revelation to specta- tors.
 Members of the New Haven base ball club are pretty sore because they will not be allowed to play with the Annex football eleven in the series against the Remington r osts. Miller, Nag1e and Waters played with the Am nex last season, and Angemeier and Mangus hoped to get on the squad this year. But the recent decision of the Annex management to bar out siders was a blow to the professionals. Waters claims to be legal resident of New Haven because he established a, voting residence there last year. He may be allowed to play.
 Jess Willard will invade New York in about a week to get 8 few matches in order to prove that he is entitled to fight Jack Johnson.
