form the phraseologyl of the Ameri-
can note will take, speculation here
to-day centered in the nature of the
reception the document will be given
by the Imperial Government.
Persons who usually reflect the
views of the German Embassy sought
to allay the suspicion that Germany
had deliberately tried, by destroying
the Luscitania, to draw the United
States into the war. Although not
in complete touch with their Govern
ment, the German officials apparent
ly were desirous Of giving the inn
preston that the last thing Germany
seeks is an open break with The Unit
ed States.
Whether the receipt of the Ameri-
can note will give force to this asser-
ton or aggravate an already strained
relationship is a matter that may only
be coniectured until the German reply
is received.

GEORGIAN SUES TO GUST Off
GERS OF DOE RUN LEAD co.
Federal Court Is ASKED ~ Set Elec-
tion Aside and Conduct a
New One.

Al petition asking that the recent
election of officers and directors Of
the Doe Run Lead Company Of Bonne
Terre, Mo-, be set aside and q new
election Of officers and directors be
held under the supervision Of the
Court, was filed Tuesday in the Fed
eral Court by Samuel R. Maynard,
Georgia stockholder in the Missouri
corporation.
The defendants are the Doe Run
Lead Company and Polite Elvins,
Robert Sellers, r. R. S. Parsons and
F. H. Dearing, officers of the COM
pany. The petition alleges the cleo
ton Of officers and directors was con-
trary to the Missouri statutes, in that
three Of them are not citizens Of the
state Of Missouri, as required by law.
The suit had its beginning, it ap-
peared from the petition, in the mer-
ger September 10, 1913, Of the Doe
Run and St. Joseph Lead Companies.
The terms of the merger were that the
stockholders Of the Doe Run Com
pany should deliver to the st. Joseph
Company 64,5S4 shares of Doe Run
stock, of par value of $500, in ex-
change for 5000 shares of st. Joseph
worth $40 par value, and $125,OOO in
cash.
The merger was effected, accord
ing to the petition, to the cost Of the
Doe Run stockholders. The plaintiff
alleged he refused to join in the mer-
ger, and when the annual election was
held May 7, 1915, he protested against
the voting by the st. Joseph Company
of the Doe Run stock in the Doe Rur
election.
Since the merger of the lead com
panies his dividends have dropped
from 6 per cent annually to less thar
/ per cent, the plaintiff alleged. H'
asks the Court to hold an election o.
officers and directors under its cogni
zance, and to go into the equity o
the merger.-St. Louis Republic.

CONTRARY to general belief. Hughie

 fn,the season of 1907 Jennings ere ated g furore in baseball circles by springing a little postman's whistle as an adjunct to his coaching. Previous to this Jennings worked his voice so hard that he had to devise some other means to make known that he was in the game. The whistle was a success. and the manner in which Hughie used 1t brought down the house. It also brought down the ire of Silk O'Lough- lin the umpire, and he made loud protest and ordered MT.

MANY REAL FINDS HAVE BEEN UNFAIR TIED TfIS
By TOMMY CLARK.

HE 1915 baseball season has
 produced a number of real
 nnds. Several teams. espe-
 cally in the National league $ave been fortunate enough to pick up players who have helped make this seasons history. Last year the big league scouts stated that the minors were we'll drained of promising mate rial. and few youngsters gave any evil dence of showing they were second Cobbs or Wagners. But the scouts were little bit off, as the showing of Ia few youngsters have proved. Of course a number of the kids were sent back to the minors early in the season, but quite a number remained.
 Probably the greatest find of the year is Frank Bancroft. the Phillies' short fielder. This youngster has done whole lot to weld together power- eul indeid for the Quaker hoys. Today Ae Phillies' tnfield quartet is the Strongest in the National league. Not alone has Bancroft done remarkably well in his position, but his general all around playing has been brilliant. Manager Pat Moran has been fortu- nate in landing such a youngster. Much credit for the teams grand show ing thtS year mast b3 given to him.
 St. Louis has been very fortunate in landing such a remarkably versatile player as Sisler. This fellow can pitch and do most anything else on the dia- nsnnd- He held down first base in fine style recently. in addition to making good as pinch hitter. He has also twirIed Q number of brilliant games. Next season Manager Branch Hickey believes he will surely land a place in basebalIs hall of fame.
 Pittsburgh has had the good fortune to land two corktng good players in Third Baseman Baird and Pitcher Ma 9aux. The latter is the real pitching ind of the 1915 season. This young ster has stood the heavy batters of President John Teners circuit on their heads time and again. He is as cool as a cucumber and has wonderful con- trol. Baird has performed notably at last station. His game has been steady and consistently brilliant since the start. sPitcher Wezer Dell has done a whole lot to put Brooklyn on the baseball map. His pitching has been a feature of many of the Brooklyn games this year. Dell cannot really be called a 1915 find, as he was with the team last fall, but then he did not show to ad- vantage. However, his name has to be mentioned in connection with the real developments of this season. real gem. This youngster has played
