New York, June 3O.-With the var
ious weaknesses which developed in
the tuning.up races corrected, the
trio of cup defense yachts are about
to enter upon the second stage Of the
Americas cup preliminaries. Begin
ming next week off Newport will be
held the first official tests of the Res.
olute, Vanitfe and Defiance and the
cup committee will base it's final Sc.
lection of a defender upon the result
of these and subsequent races.
These initial point races, as they
are termed since the points scored
will count for or against the defense
taspirants, begin or July Z with a Sc
'ries Of rOund-robin races in which
each yacht will race the two others
in turn and the committee expects to
secure valuable data as a result of
the dual contests. The early races
both on Long Island and off Sandy
Hook clearly indicated that of the
trio the Resolute was the only yacht
really ready for the June races. Once
the relnode.ing of spars and sails is
completed 1t is predicted that the fu.
ture contests will be far closer and
the Victories more evenly divided.
Structure an Advant qe.
While the structural points of the
three sloops will be brought out to
the best advantage in all these races
the work Of the crews will be a very
important factor. The preliminary
contests have been just as much OF q

NOT GREATsYEAR.

Organized baseball and especially
the major leagues will not look back
on 1914 as q year of golden h~arvests.
With midsummer rapidly approach
ing reports from all parts of the
country are to the fleet that attend
ance figures are n up to the usual
standard. The reasons assigned for
this unusual state of gate receipts are
extremely varied. The advent OF the
Federal league is not generally given
as a contributing cause and it is
known that the new organization is
not any better supported than the
older organizations. One authority,
who, owing to his position, has ac-
cess to the returns, said recently:
Due to Business Dulness.
81 attribute the falling off of at.
tendance to the general dulness in
business. Baseball is like any other
attraction that depends upon the pub.
lie for support. 1t feels business de.
preston and its receipts is an accur.
ate barometer of financial conditions.
| was recently told during a trip
around the circuit that one city sup
porting a major league club had more
than 1900 untenanted houses due to
the fact that many. of the working
class had left, in search Of other EN-.
ployment. Conditions l found to be
the same to some extent in other
cities. Baseball has its lean years
and under the circumstances it is not
surprising that we should hear com.
plants"
Situation Is Pessimistic.
The situation is one which readily
lends itself to pessimistic and sensa-
tional reports but there is no thought
on the part of chose who have made
baseball a life bushes of putting up
the shutters. If it is found that a
REIMBURSEMENT Of certain circuits are
necessary such changes will be made
In due time. There is no tendency,
however, to act on snap Judgment.
President Edward. Barrow OF the In.
ternational league voiced the general
sentiment of organized baseball when
he said anent the subject:
Il am not prepared to say what
future developments may arise or
whether conditions may not ultimate
ly demand q revision of the circuit.
But this ! will say, and say most pos
itively, no change is contemplated
this season. And If any change is
made in future it will be by the
unanimous consent of the club presi-
dents. Our constitution demands
that courtesy. baseball generally
this season is not in as flourishing a
condition as It has been the past sew
era1 seasons. But the International
league has been hit no harder than
any Of 1.-THE other leagues"

Juarez recently. il was discovered that
the bed Of the automobile had a false
bottom large enough TO store a guam
tity Of arms and ammunition. However,
there were no arms or ammunition in
the compartment and no arrests were
made. The automobile was fixed in
Juarez for carrying the ammunition
and was arranged so that a dozen rifles
could be hidden in the false cOmpart-
ment without being detected
Smuggling is being done at cara
gosa- near Ysleta- The ammunition is
taken 10 a point opposite Zaragosa on
the American side and is then carried
across by Mexicans who are paid by the
rebels who receive IL on the Mexican
side Quantities Of ammunition are be-
ing received in FL Paso from the esst-
