THAT PEACE PLAN.
Ward Alleges Blufing and Says Yanks
Were Offered Him.

New York, Jan. 4.-Robert b. Ward,
president OF the Brooklyn Federals, who
is vice-president of the Federal league,
in statement Saturday night at New
York made public some of the details
of the fruitless peace negotiations with
organized baseball early in the winter.
First peace oyertures. he said, came
from mike" Cantillion, owner of the
Minneapolis association club, whose
proposition was for the Federal league
teams in the West to enter the Ameri-
can association, those in the East TO
merge with the international league.
This suggestion was instantly turned
down bv the Federals, Ward said, and
Cantillion then brought into conference,
first in New York in October and later
several times in Chicago Charles
Weep Imam OF the Chicago FedeTals and
Chairman August Hermann OF the ma
tional commission. Ward said that three
distinct propositions were made TO him
to buy the New York Americans, at the
same time that Weeghman was given an
option TO buy the Chicago Nationals
Ward said he was willing to buy the
Yankees and Weeghman the Cubs, on
condition that the Federals be admitted
as a major league
There was little chance for peace at
any time, Ward said but talk along that
line was widely circulated by organized
baseball in order TO keep the minor
leagues quiet at the annual meeting Of
the national association OF minor
leagues in November.
Regarding the attempts to arrange
sale Of the Chicago club TO Weeghman.
Ward said: There were several meet
ings between Messrs Weeghman and
Hermann in Chicago, and to aid him in
pacifying the minor leagues eager to en-
list with the Federals there was spread
broadcast a story OF Mr.. Weeghman's
desertion of the Federal
league TO become principal stakeholder
IN the Cubs This bluf Of breaking the
Federal league quoted the minors, but
Charles W. Murphy haopped forth and
asserted himself in a manner that left
no doubt in the minds Of the fans re-
garding the system which has prevailed
IN organized baseball
"The Federal league IL a permanent
in baseball" said Ward in
conclusion 1T may he considered ex-
pensiye. but We will continue 20 build
IN a foundation Of straightforward deal.
nc With the public and harmony among
the club owners. Because It Is 70 unlike
ne organized baseball system, some men
annot understand why We can hope 20
uccced The public seems eager for the
.hange, e J may Judge from the COM
ments IN recent weeks"

A SPLENDID OFFER.
Thinks Vermont Ought to Accept Wallis
Proposition.

In another column we print the letter
from Hon. Theodore N. Vail TO the
members of the incoming legislature
offering to give to the state his famous
agricultural school at Lyndon Center, to-
gether with his 3,000-acre farm on the
foothills adjoining the school, his splen.
didly-equipped barns and the blooded
stock which has for years taken the
blue ribbons at the big horse shows and
cattle fairs of the East,
The property, as Mr.. Vail says, can
not be duplicated for less than $4,000,
All this is offered TO the state provided
they viii assume its future management
and control As the Rutland Herald
well says, no gift has come within our
reach so magnificent since Senator Proc
tor gave Vermont the Pittsford sana-
forum.
This school is more than an agricul-
tural school; it has successful taught
vocational training to lot of ambitious
Vermont boys and the graduates of the
school have started farming with
mental and manual equipment such as
no other institution can furnish. The
boys were first taught how to erect the
various buildings that now constitute
this plant, mixing the concrete for the
blacksmith shop, and other buildings.
Later in some of these shops they learn
ed how to make sleds, wagons and farm
implements. Then they were taught
to be independent of the blacksmith and
carpenter whenever they become mana
gers of their own property. At Mr..
Walls they were taught scientific agri-
culture, having the benefit of working
on an estate where crops were raised
according to the most improved methods
and where stock was raised by the most
expert breeders of horses and cattle that
money could buy lin the varied curric-
ulum was taught forestry, road build.
ing, horticulture, and dairying, while
especial attention was paid to raising
the best apples in the state. Work
along all these lines was done under ex-
pert supervision and as stimulus to
good results as well as to give the poor
est boy a chance, the boys were paid
by the hour for all work done outside |
Of the schoolroom. To the graduates |
Of this school, as well as to those now |
in this model vocational agricultural |
school, Vermont farms look attractive
and the results OF such training can |
never be measured.
We believe the state will not hesitate |
10 accept this generous offer of a man,
who though born in Ohio, has lived in
he state for % years and who is as
oval to Vermont as any of its sons
Mr. Vail is man OF deeds rather than
words, but in his inspiring address at
he Great Vermont meeting in Burling I
,on last February this great financier
md seer said, If Vermont is not in the
irst rank now. put her there" The
acceptance of this geneous offer by the
tate win put her there" and once
here we have faith enough in our chill
lren to believe that they will keep her
here.-Springfeld Reporter

GET RID OF HUMORS
AND AVOID DISEASE

Humors in the blood cause internal
arrangements that affect the whole sys'
tenn, as well as pimples, boils and other
eruptions. They affect all the organs
and functions, membranes and tissues
and are directly responsible for the
readiness with which some people con-
tract disease.
For 40 years Hoods Sarsaparilla has
been more successful than any other
medicine in expelling humors and remov-
ing their inward and outward effects.
1t is distinguished for its thoroughness
in purifying the blood, which it enriches
and inyigorates. No other medicine acts
like it, for no other medicine is like it.

BIG CONSPIRACY
TO GET GERMANS
TO FRONT SEEN
Four Men Who Were Taken OFF Ship
Are Charged with Having False
Passports.

New York, Jan. -four Germans, one
OF them an officer of the reserve and the
others German citizens returning TO the
fatherland as volunteers, were arrested
by government agents Saturday aboard
the Scandinavian. American liner YER
genfjord as the steamer stopped at quar-
antine on her way outward bound for
Bergen, Norway.
Meantime special agents of the gov
eminent were looking Saturday night for
Maurice Deiches in Philadelphia. They
carried a warrant issued by the
States Commissioner Houghton charging
him also with conspiracy to defraud the
United States.
Mr. Deiches is a well known New York
attorney of German parentage. He was
receiver for the Bihchoff banking house
which failed some time ago. and has been
active to certain extent in New York
politics.
All four were in possession OF pass
ports issued by the state department to
citizens OF the United States. They
were charged with conspiracy to defraud
the government. One OF them, the Off.
Ger, was later paroled on his own recog
nizance, while the others were locked up
in default Of $1,000 bail.
While these arysts were in progress
other government agents stopped Carl
Ruroede OF 1921 Forty-sixth street,
Brooklyn, and John Aucher as they were
walking in Whitehall street and arrest
ed them on the same charge. Ruroede
and Aueher are said to be the men who
secured the passports for the four men,
who hoped with their aid to slip out OF
the country to Norway. Ruroede was
held in $4,000 bail.
