ering placing in charge OF an apprai-
sal of u. L. r. properties, arrived in
Detroit, Monday morning, for a sec
ond conference which the members
of the board had requested of him.
Mr.. Bemis declined under the circum-
stances TO say anything with regard
TO the Detroit situation or the terms
of his prospective employment which
are to be discussed Monday after
noon, but he talked freely of a SINH
lar work being done for the city of
Washington under his direction. Mr..
Bemis desires to be engaged by the
day, while the commission prefers to
pay lump sum.
The two companies which operate
lines in Washington have a larger
mileage of track than that within the
city limits of Detroit, according TO Mr.
Bemis He has 40 men working on
the job there and expects TO double
the force soon. That appraisal was
begun in May
Mr.. Bemis has the reputation o

When our kidneys hurt and your

and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you

them with a mild. harmless salts
which removes the body's urinous
normal activity. The function of the
kidneys is to filter the blood In "a
hours they strain from it 500 grains
of acid and waste. so we can readily
understand the vital importance Of
keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of water-you can't
drink too much; also get from any
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts: take a tablespoonful in q glass
of water before breakfast each morn
ing for few days and your kidneys
will act fine. This famous salts fs

CHANGE IN ATHLETICS
Intercollegiate Athletic Association
May Make Changes.

New York. Jan. 1s.-Radical
changes are to be made in the con-
stftution OF the intercollegiate Asso-
citation of Amateur Athletes of Amer
lea If the plans which were discussed
by the executive committee at it's mid
year meeting yesterday are adopted
by the annual convention of the as
sOciation next month. The proposed
amendments and others which will
be presented by the graduate advisory
board will be announced within the
3O-day period required by the consti-
tuition of the association. One of the
amendments which will come up for
action at the meeting is that concern
ing the hammer throw. Last year it
was proposed that the length of the
handle of the present hammer be
shortened and the weight increased so
that in it's flight the danger to specta-
tors would be minimized.
Members of the committee refused
to disclose the nature Of the other
amendments. 1t was announced that
the Columbia university annual in
door games, which in the last few
years have been becoming more and
more to the indoor college season what
the Pennsylvania relay championship
are to the outdoor, will be held on

HOLLAND IS BUSY
Western League Directors Talk
Of Stepping Over Traces.
Discuss Baseball Law and Nov.
ing wichita Club.

st. Joseph. Mo-, Jan. 19.-Directors
OF the Western League tentatively de-
cided Saturday to adopt a schedule for
next season calling for 168 games.
uie meeting which probably will be
held in Sioux City. and decided to
raise the game guarantee to flat
rate of $125 a day instead of a sliding
rate now in use.
The directors were called together
primarily to discuss q probable change
In the location Of the franchise now
held by Wichita, Kan. 1t il likely an
effort will be made to place the club
In Kansas City, Kan. in spite Of the
five-mtle limit law. now included in
the national agreement, which would
give American Association teams a
chance to make objections.
William Rourke Of Omaha said he
believed the five-mile limit clause in
the agreement would not hold good in
court. John Holland of st. Joseph
and Frank Isbell of Des Moines agreed
an agreement would sanction a mono-
poly in restraint Of trade and would
not be upheld by the courts.
1t has been known for some time
that there was a strong possibility of
the Western League entering one of
the Kansas Citys. George Tebeau was
asked IL he would rent Association
park to the minor organization when
the Blues are out of town so that the
Wichita club could be moved to this
city and he said he would if he could
get the consent of other American
Association magnates. This consent
has not been asked.
Likely the Western will ask the con-
sent of the association before trying
to move the Wichita club to Kansas
City. Kan. but if they move it there
despite objections of the association
it will pave the way for much trouble
in baseball. Should organized baseball
sanction such a move it will pave the
way for leagues to enter Chicago and
other territory now protected. The
American Association would then be
able to place a team in Chicago and
retain protection

FEDERALs CLAIM STRENGTH.
President Gilmore Says Capitalists
Have Been Convinced.

Chicago, Jan. 19.-The Federal
League continued its raid on the pre-
serves Of organized ball Sunday, it was
announced by President Gilmore. Two
stars of the Nationals, he says, had
been signed by the Chicago team in
the new organization, but in accord
ance with a statement issued after the
meeting Saturday their names were
not announced. =.
The crucial meeting had left the
Federals stronger than ever, Gilmore
said. The circuit had stood the test
imposed by Charles Weeghman and
William Walker. the Chicago capital
lists whose good will was considered
essential, and the league president de-
clared the position of the organization
was good enough now to satisfy any
body.
The forces Of organized baseball.
who held a secret meeting here Satur-
day, declined to give out anything that
took place. President johnson of the
American League officially denied the
ST. Louis Americans had been offered
to Weeghman as an inducement to
him to refrain from attacking the

Business Men Support Team and VIII
Pay All Debts.
Wichita, Kan, Jan. 19.-The Wichita
baseball situation promises to be set
tied today. At a meeting Of the stock
holders in November the team was
ordered sold to pay on all debts. The
club was behind about $4,000. but $12.-
600 of the debt was for building the
ball park. At meeting of the direc-
tors Saturday $4,000 was pledged by
Wichita business men. 1t is thought
that $40, 900 will be pledged by Monday,
which will leave about $1,000 to pur-
chase new players.
It is known that majority of the
new owners are in favor Of giving Nick
Maddox another trial as manager of the
team for 1914. A story was sent from
Wichita through the Associated
Press that stockholders have been hold
ing up the sale Of the club by refusing
to turn in their stock for receipted bills.
The stockholders ordered the club sold
to pay the debts and they are back of
the new owners.
