OUR SHARE OF THE PROFITS.

The Norfolk Ftrgtnian-PiIot, in an editorial
reproduced this page today, gives some
striking figures with regard to prosperity that
has come to America as the result of the Euro
pean war. II is not small thing for nations
to conduct gigantic murder schemes and some
body must furnish the weapons For the United
States this task may not be especially pleasing
in view Of the to be made of her pro-
duets. but 1t is certainly profitable. And this
is about all the comfort that we can find in
the war for AS racial struggle 1t is
horrible, hut as a murder machine it is per-
feet.
We dislike to reap any profit from so terri
bic tragedy. but feel that whatever bene-
fits are TO he derived should come our way
more justly than they should go to any other
nation And at that they cannot begin to COM
pensate us for the losses caused our people.

YANKEES NOT
 TAKEN AWAY
 FROM FARRELL

Chicago, Nov. 7-W1thout chang ing it's stand<pat attitude toward the Federal League, and without even changing the personnel of it's own organization, the American League concluded it's annual meeting yester- day with the discussion of several matters designed to benefit the sport without taking definite action on any of them.
 Frank J. Farrell continued to be the representative of the New York Yankees throughout the meeting, and, so far as cOuLA be aseertaineds Big Bill Devery still remains a silent part ner in the ownership of the Gotham club. Whether he will be retained as a partner so silent he never will be heard from again, or whether the deal for the transfer of .DeVery's stock in the New York club was not ripe for public consumption at this time, was not disclosed by the club owners.
 But 1t was noted that while most
 of the inagnates caught early trains for their home towns. Frank Farrell of the New Y ork club, and James I4annin of the Boston club FarrsiIfs leading supporter, stayed overs say l ing they would start back east tomor- row. A slake-up in the membership l of the New York club was consider ed advisable by some of the mag | HSdLSS sStS A preliminary to an to strengthen the team in the metro i po1is.s
 By many 1t is believed the New York American League club is one | of the means by which settlement 1 of the baseball war is to be brought about by permitting the Wards Of Federal League fame to Eansfer their euberance from Brooklyn to Man
 haitian through the purchase Of Dev- ! ery,s stock in the Yankees. No sub stantiation of this rumor could be hads and. in fact. 1t was fspecificaIIy
 denied all the way down the line.
 As step toward getting back to the sanity in the matter of operat- ing expenses the club owners dis
 eussed the at1visability of reducing I the limit ~on the number of players to be carried by each club during the season from Twenty-Five to twen- l ty. Definite action in the matter was put over until the spring meeting however, out of deference to the Ma T tiona1 League. which may want to | have something to say in the matter.

HUMPHREYS WILL
 PLAY -YOSTS

All roads will lead to yost field to- morrow afternoon when the Humph- reys of New Haven make their second appearance of the season.
 The Humphreys withdrew from the elimination contest in New Haven. and play outside men, hence this makes them the strongest eleven in the state outside of the Ren-Yost team. They will present the same lineup as when last seen in action in Bridgeport. Hayes, the big tackle, is "a. former Vermont University star and is closed as A1l-State tackle. He will face Mccormack in Sundays battle. Danahower, who sailed under the name of Franklin in the Humphrey lineup, Is a former halfback and cap tain of lafayette. Pickett, the full back. is a Yale Law school man. He played a slashfng game on his. prev ious visit. Coach Mccormack will stand pat oh the team as it now stands, no outside talent being on the team. He will start young Cunning ham at left hAIfback Sunday as a. run ming mate for SeeIey. The field will no doubt be taxed to it's capacity when Referee Waters blows his whistle at o'clock.

 IN FAST BOUT

San Francisco, Nov. 7-Jinnmy SIab- by of Hammond. Ind, gave George Chip of Newcastle, Pa. a sound beat ing last night and won the decision at the end of 20 rounds of hard fight ing. C1abby fought cautiously, but never failed to take the aggressive when the opportunity offered. In the fifth round he solved Chips awkward but dangerous style. and from that time on began to cut the larger man to pieces at short range and smother him with blows in the clinches, keep ing hi1nse1f well covered
 In the ninth round. while Chip, was going backward, CTabby gs1lot in a straight left that knocked Chip to his launches. Chip got up instantly. somewhat jared but not badly hurt. Chip did his best to finish with g rush in the last round but Clabby easily battered him down and when the ref cree gave his decision Chip walked ever and congratulated the winner.

SAYS HERzOG WAS IN WRONG
 WITH PLAYERS

Pittsburgh, Nov. - Marty Berg hammer the Hopping infielder who has gone over to the Rittsburgh Fed. erals, after playing with the Gincin- neetf Reds during the season. was a visitor at the Federal headquarters yesterday and took advantage of a eanversation about Manager Buck aerzog to voice his opinion in this 6train:
 ssAII this talk about Herzog being bn good terms with his players is yorn1nyrot. Why, he doesn't even speak bo them off the field, and if he hap pens to meet them on the street ne passes them with his nose in the air S if there was mighty big diff snce between a manager and an CT ninary ball player. He won't ride on Inc same car with them, and then at klne hotel he will avoid eating with aheIn. in the same dining room IF he can. Take it from me.

ANNIVERSARIES

 1s03-Jack Monroe knocked out Pe- fer Maher in fourth round at PhiIadeI- pI1ia. Monroe was then claiming the championship, by reason of having stayed four rounds with Jeffries the previous year at Butte. Mont. Mon. roe's victory over Maher was nothing to brae about as the Irishman was on the down grade and had previously been knocked out by Kid Mccoy, Gus Rl1hlin, Kid Carter, Joe Choynski and George Gardiner. Monroe continued so obstreperous in his boasting, how ever that Jeff consented to a match, and in 1904 the boilermalzer knocked him out in the second round at San Francisco. Monroe was a native Of ed over 200 pounds. He began boxing in San Francisco in 1901, and fought a 20-round draw with Hank Griffin, the negro boxer After his defeat by Jeff he fought several battles in At Ianta, savannah. Ottawa, Ont, and other cities, anr made a trip. to Aus tralia, but he failed utterly to live up to the hopes of those who thought he was of championship calibre.

HINKEY GETS
 PRAISE FROM
 JOHNNY FIELD

New Haven, Nov. 7-In addressing a Yale football mass meeting of 2,OO0 students, Johnny Field, the former, head coach, outlined what he thinks Harvard will do about the Yale game He said:l
 Head Coach Frank Hinkey knows more about football than any man in the country He has gone about the work in a broad-zninded way. He saw the value Of the Canadian. pass ing game, the western open game, and the eastern air-tight defense, Iand he has put all these things into the team this year. The defense of the team has been worrying some men.
 "'Hdnhey has been working out the defence and has nearly every ything stopped from the ends to the tackles. Opponents still are making gaa1ls through the center of the line, but 1t will only take about one more week to close this hole. The first thing on which to build asdefense is against the forward pass, and think we have done thds- As for the defense we have the best in the, country.
 Both Princeton and Harvard de- serve lot of respect Princeton seems to have a wonderful line this year, and has been doing some good work on end runs, which we will have to to take Brtckley's place. and will probably play the game Of carrying the ball to the twenty-yard line and then kicking.
