THE FEARS OF GREECE.

It is a culio!.si rOnlnen'ttt\ on the :elative iutility of the terribl" Sarfl- ices made in the double war of the Near East that Greece. which seem cd to have gained most from the struggle, should now be praying the movers 10 defend her from the az yressions of Turkey. When the treaty of "peace" with Turkey, approved by the Conference of Ambassadors at London, was signed, the increase m territory for Greece was estimated at 56,OO0 square kilometcrs, and the in crease in population at 1900 0oo. This was nearly as much as had been gained by Bulgaria and Servia con- bined. The losses in killed and wounded were estimated at 6S,000, about the same as those of Servia and less than half those of Bulgaria. Meanwhile Turkey had lost 124,000 square kilometers of territory and nearly 100000 population. The statesmen ill the European capitals were speculating on how long it would. be before Turkey broke up and on the future progress of Greece. Ia day Turkey is menacing Greece and M. Venizelos is making the rounds of the European Chancelleries, seek ing friendly intervention. Surely the Whirligig of Time has brought it's re venges swiftly.
 Probably the Greek Premier will ultimately get what he is seeking Germany, which has secured much influence in Turkey and has obtain ed an important part in the develop ment of it's army, will hardly coup tenance aggression toward Greece. which would he conducted chiefly by means of the navy. where the intlu~ ence of EnGland is predominant Great Britain is sincerely interested ill the postponement to the latest possible date of any new conflict in the Near East. and Russia is still more S0 wishing time to develop the diplomatic advantages she now pos sesses. Italy can have no desire to see the power with which she has inst closed d costly and successful contest strengthened in the AeSan and in the Meditcrranean and the strength of Greece diminished. That the countries and races which have been fighting each other in the Bal kan peninsula have reached stable relation with each other cannot at all be assumed, but it is not likely that their equilibrium, unstable as it must be. will be seriously disturbed at present The strain of the last fir teen months has been very great and costly. not only to the. nations i'm mediately involved but for all Flu rope. It is d fair inference that Tur- key will not be allowed to provoke q renewal of it.--EX.

Sport Editor, EVENING JOURNAL:
While it is not the purpose of the st.
Aloysius c. c. baseball team TO start
newspaper war, they do want to explain
their position relative to the game
which was played at Shellpot Park Sat
urday between them and the Whining

pany team, which went only six innings.
The score as published in the Sunday
paper was 4 to in favor of the Trac-
tion Company team, but the correct score
is . to 4 in favcr of the st. AlOysius
team. In this connection / wish to
state that the st. Aloysius team has
Travelled to grelt many towns in the
Peninsula, Pennsylvania and Mary

treatment that was accorded them oy
the Traction Company's umpire on Sat
urdav. The st. Aloysius team regrets
that they have TO bring the umpire
question in this matter, but he was so
poor on decisions against the Traction
Company that we requested that he be
taken out and someone else put in. He
absolutely refused to 60 out and de
clared that if he went out there would
be no game, so we decided that we did
not care to play a game with such a
man umpiring, even though we had the
long end of the score.
Mr.. King the other umpire had re-
versed the decision of this umpire which
caused all the trouble, but the Traction

YORK Will STICK
TO THE TRI-STATE
President Gerry Declares
Club Will Finish Seasons
Schedule
NEW PLAYERS TO
STRENGTHEN TEAM

YORK, Pa, June lO.-Presidena
Jimmy" Gerry relieved tense situa.
ton in local baseball circles when he
announced emphatically that the York
club will not disband or the franchise
be sold and that the White Roses will
finish the season. Gerry stated that
George Heckert will not be ousted from
the management and denied that there
is any truth that he win resign the
presidency.
In addition, President Gerry stated
that the $4,000 bond required of all
Tri-State clubs has been posted by the
York Athletic Club directors. This
money would be forfeited if the club
were to quit the game. Gerry admitted
that the club is experiencing some dif-
ticulty in meeting its obligations, but
appeared optimistic regarding the re-
suit of the season He looks for a
change in the stride of the Roses and
anticipates a larger attendance at the
games as soon as the team begins to
win a game occasionally.
Manager Heckert signed up two Tri-
State veterans yesterday, when he got
Lefty" Lloyd and Pop Foster. Lloyd
pitched against Reading in the contest
and Foster, the former Reading and
Lancaster manager, played in the left
garden. Barrett warmed the bench. A
young first sacker named Ollie Rouff
of Reading, was signed for a try-out at
the initial corner in Yale's place, and
the fans of this city certainly hope he
makes good, for Yale is in wrong with
the local patrons of the game, whether
he is as fine a player as Heckert de-
clares him to be or not.
Van Dyke, a former big league twirl-
er, is in York awaiting the return of
the White Roses. He expects to land
berth with Heckert. and if he does it
should round out York's pitching staff
in fine shape. That would give the To-
coils Millmsn. Blackwood, Lloyd and
Van Dyke, a formidable bunch of
hurlers.
Things may not prove to be as bad
as was anticipated, providing the right
men are secured for positions. But the
| fans don't want to look at team
composed entirely of old men. young
fellow with plenty of ginger and pep"
here and there ON a ball club sort of

as a reminder that after all the speed
