Warns Against False Hopes.
DR. Robert Knox, director Of the
Electrical and Radio therapeutic De-
partment of the Cancer Hospital, has
issued a warning against false hopes
as a result of the reported radium
cures Of cancer He said to an inter
viewer to-day
In regard TO the value OF radium
In the treatment Of cancer one must
bear in mind that the percentage of
eases receiving benefit from this treat
ment IL small. Its action, so far as
we know at present, is uncertain.
Cases have, or appear to have,
been cured by radium when they
would probably not have received
equal or as much benefit from other
methods OF treatment 50 far as we
know, but In the interest Of the public
IL must be definitely pointed out that
these cases form very small per-
centage of tho cases actually treated.
Until we know more about its ac-
ton, one Is certainly not justified In
describing radium as specific cure
for cancer. ! deprecate very strongly
the broadcast publicity which is given
by some institutions in this and other
countries TO the brilliant successes
obtained in suitable cases, but which
after all, form only a small percentage
Of the total This publicity gives rise
to a great amount OF false hope in the
minds Of patients suffering from can
GER, and their friends, and unfortu-
nately they are only too frequently
disappointed"
Value OF the X-rays.
DR. Knox in a conversation with a
representative of The Times empha-
sized the value OF the X-rays in the
treatment OF cancer He said he had
used the X-rays in cancer cases as
well as radium, and in many cases
had had equally good results. He be-
iieved It very important to carry out
researches with the object OF produc-
ing an Xray tube which should emit
ray comparable in hardness" to
the radium ray.
DR. Knox said he had been ham
pered in his work by lack of radium
but In any case he would have en-
ploYed X-rays in cancer treatment
along with radium. The value of
X-rays even at present, he said, was
not fully realized. There was a great
future for this treatment, He hoped
1t would soon be possible to apply
X-rays in like fashion to radium
only the fringe of the ray treatment
OF cancer had as yet been touched.

ANXIOUS TO MEET WILLARD
Jack Johnson Is Ready To Fight At
 Moments Notice.

Incensed by the intimation that he could be beaten by Jess Willard, Jack Johnson has expressed hi willingness to go to America and take on he giant white hope. In a talk with William H. Recap, the well-known Philadelphia sporting man. Johns 0n averred that he was ready to make the match at a moments notice.
 Recap was commissioned by Will ard to act for him in the matter and Johnon yesterday told Recap to go ahead with the arrangements If the men come together 1t will be for six rounds in Philadelphia in November
 Johnson asserted that he would not demand unreasonable terms, as ae was anxious to prove that he is still the master of all the white hopes.
 Jess Willard, the 6-foot 6-inch cow boy has been picked by many good judges as the white man most likeiy to humble the black champion. lie IS a fair boxer with a tremendous reach and Is a heavy hitter. His best blow is right uppercut which has invar!a- ply created havoc whenever it con- nected. Like Johnson, Willard is a defensive fighter He seldom leads but depends altogether on countering. For this reason it is thought that he woul5 have a good chance against Johnson | in a long fight.

MAJORS WILL SUFFER LOSES Baseball Men Predict That The Esti-
 mated Loss Will Amount to $25, 900

Conservative baseball men who are in close touch with the inside machin- cry predict that nearly half of the six teen major league clubs will lose money this year. due to increased sal aries of the players and decreased gate receipts. It is estimated that S25O, 900 will cover these losses, some clubs dropping as much as s50-000. 1t is also figured that the Federal league promoters collectively, are losing nearly s10.0O0 a day, or s2S0,000 a month.
 Those who insist that they know the facts declare that when the sea- son ends in October the Federal lea gue will be more than $1.00O,000 in the hole. It is pointed out that the St. Louis Feds already admit a loss of s100, ,0O0: that Weeghman in Chicago is at least s125. 900 behind and that Kansas City, Brooklyn and Pittsburgh have burned up more than $500 900 in building stands. paying salaries and meeting other heavy expenses. Presi- dent Gilmore, meanwhile insists that the Federal league will not only sur vive the present season, but also will take the field in 1915. prepared to fig 1t harder than ever. But the only way ' the Feds can accomplish this feat is to break their way into organized | baseball.

MACK THINKS HIS PITCHING
 STAFF IS NOT WEAK
Predicts Brilliant Future For Bush- Asserts Position of His Team is Due to the Twirlers

Some folks are worrying about the Athletics pitching staff these days, but Connie Mack is not one of them. And since the man who directs the Worlds Champions in their diamond battles is enjoying undisturbed slun- Der at night, there appears to be no reason under the sun for the Philadel- phia fans to display alarm.
 Just who started the calamity dirse about MT Mack's twirlers and how it gained such general circulation is a mystery. The fact remains that in Detroit, Washington, Chicago, Boston, St. Louis and other cities the experts fill the news columns with stories about the weakness of the Athletics staff.

Pittsburgh, Pa. July 17.-Beschers single and a home run by Doyle gave New York a 3 to 1 victory in a z1- inning pitchers duel between Mar guard and Adams today. It was the longest game ever played in the Ma tional league. From the close Of the third inning until the opening of the 21st inning neither team was able to score. so effective was the pitching. Sharp fielding characterized the W 5rk of both sides.
 In the first inning Burns tripled with two out, but could not score. In their half the Pirates scored their only run when Mensor was hit by the first ball pitched by Marquard, went to second on Mowrey's sacrifice and scored on Wagners three base hit.
 The visitors tied the score in the third on singles by Bescher and Doyle and Burns out. During the next II innings each team often got men on the bases, but no runs resulted. Bescher singled in the Fist after Eo were out. He stole second. Doyle then sent his home run blow to center, SCOT ing himself and BeScher. Adams did not give a base on balls and struck out six men.

Yankees Lest Chance to Get Crack
 First Baseman.


 The Yankees almost bought first baseman Dick Hoblitzel of the Cincin- nati Reds, but 1t seems while the deal was hanging fire. Owner Joseph J. Lannin of the Boston Red Sox, stepped in and bought the player. President Farrell was very much surprised at Mir. Lannin's action, and the New York Club maintains that they had first call on the players services.
 Mir Farrell wired Ban Johnson last night. and will have tre matter taken up by the National Commission. As Garry Hermann. who sold the player, is Chairman of the commission. the Yankees chances of getting Hobby are none too good. It is understood that Boston paid s5,0O0 for the player, the same price for which he was of fered to the New York Club. but New York only wanted to put up S3.o0o for & thirty days trial of the player and if he proved satisfactory Farrell was then to pay the remainder of the S5.eoo.
