Briefly, the facts in the suit are as follows:
 The Federal league seeks to dis solve organized baseball, which oper- ateS under the so-called national agreement as it is alleged it violates the antitrust law. Organized base bal includes practically every league in the nation, exclusive of the Federal organization.
 The Federals also seek to enjon the individual defendants from inter fering with players now under con tract to the Federal organization and also asks that the contracts with players made by the defendants and each of them under the national agreement be declared null, void and of no effect. If the Federals are suc- cessful in the quest for a temporary injunction, steps will immediately be taken to obtain q permanent order.

Fighting Along Vistula.

PetrOgrad, Jan. 20.-An official communication issued by the grand staff of the Russian army indicates considerable activity and fighting on the right bank of the lower Vistula. The statement follows:
 During the 17th and 18th of Janu ary, on the right bank of the lower NiStula, upon the front running from the river to the railroad from Warsaw to MlaWa, a portion of our troops, having come in close contact with the enemy, had a series of collisions of secondary importance.
 Fighting of more grave charac- ter, though having the nature of separate actions, took place in the village of KonOpki, where the heavy artillery with which the enemy bonn barded us was silenced by the fire of cur batteries and near BodZanow and Bejournia, opposite which the enemy occupied well organized defensive positions Heavy fighting also oc- cured near Dobrzyn, where an offensive attempt of the Germans was blocked and the enemy was driven back, sustaining grave losses.
 During the day of January 17th enemy bonn barded, from his positions on the west bank of the Vistula, our lines near Wyszogrod. but our fire, di- rected upon his front and flank, si- fenced the German artillery.
 "On January 18th the Germans vio- lently cannOnaded the village Of Wit kovitze and the entrenchments occu- pied by us on the left bank of the Bzura.

selfdeception to expect that the
United States could permanently profit
by n struggle ended only by exhaustion.
Although this country will undoubtedly
feel the harmful effects of the war
less than any other, and will actually
benefit in some respects, We cannot
hope to avert the reflex action of de-
struction of millions of men and bill
lions of property, the present cost of
the war being at the rate Of about
100000, 100000 year. When the war
is over we may secure some temporary
advantage by selling machinery, con-
structive materials, etc, to fill the gap
until the devastated regions are able
to supply themselves; but subsequently
our exports must be affected adversely
by an inevitably diminished buying
power of all the belligerents. As to im
ports, it is hardly likely there will be
such extensive dumping as feared, fol
the simple reason that Europe will have
little surplus for export, and for some
time after the war labor in the belliger
ent countries will be largely drawn in
to reconstruction work, while the vast
age of capital must restrain foreign en-
terprise for years to come. Following
the war severe struggle for recovery
of the worlds markets must be ex
pected between Germany and Grea
Britain. That contingency, however, il
some distance away, and during the in
terval the United States has a splendid
opportunity for securing foothold il

New York, Nov. 24.--Our financial
outlook is undoubtedly promising, but
contains many difficult and unpre-
cedented problems, practically all Of
which are an outgrowth of war. The
violent arrangement of our foreign
trade, the sudden and overwhelming de-
mands for munitions, the undreamed Of
applications for American funds and the
consequent secondary disturbances af-
fecting shipping, railroads, factories,
labor, commodities, exchange, money,
securities, ETC., are too familiar to re-
uuire mention. No line of business has
entirely escaped the effect of the
European cataclysm. Some of these
problems have already been successful
ly faced. Others are still in prospect
and will require cool and careful ac-
ton. Although our financial and in
dustrial resources have already been
modified upon war basis, there still
remain two great contingencies yet to
be faced; either an early peace, or pro-
longaton Of the war, the former may
be within the probabilities. A severely
disastrous and costly winter may be in
fuential in that direction.
Should the war continue Indefinitely
h it will have twofold effect. At first
it would mean prolonged demand upon
the United States for war materials and
food products, such as has been ex'
perienced for the past six months. Tenn
porarily we should gain by such a re-
suit, but eventually we should lose by
a long war and it would be dangerous

but to crouch under the crumbling
shelters and wait for death.
Like the French, the Germans have
reserve lines of trenches, but tho
French consider that they have taken
the German $ measure now aud that
to advance they have only to repeat the
Champagne dose. This, they admit,
takes time. On the other hand thoy
say they have the time and that the
Germans have not, also they can con
centrate their efforts while the Ger
mans are compelled to spread theirs

here who will claim that the Battle Of
Champagne, as big and important as it
undoubtedly was, will directly effect
the end of the war But he does claim
omphatically, that the battle is like o
signpost pointing the way to the end,
and that by similar thrusts here and
there, the wall across the road will
crumble one day and behind it will be
only the open highway and victory.

THE WORLD WAR TRUST

(From Remarks of Clyde II. Tavenner.)
One of the strongest arguments in
favor of policy Of complete govern
ment manufacture of all munitions of
war is that such policy will remove
all incentive for the defrauding Of tne
government by private manufacturers.
The war trust has never hesitated to
cheat the government when it found
managed to find such opportunities. 1t
is probable that the exact extent Of the
frauds that have been perpetrated up
on the government by the war trust
will never be known, because it has
been only by sneer accident that sucl
frauds have become public in few in.

A proposition has been made to Sec
retary Daniels, however, that If he will
agree to reward those who furnish the
evidence of extensive armor-plate swim.

sums recovered from the armor ring .as
result of such information that it
will be forthcoming Those who nave
made this proposition to the Secretary
state that the men who have such in
formation have dealings with the arm
Or concerns, and that others who would
testify are in the employment Of tae
armor manufacturers and that they can
not sacrifice their interests and means
of livelihood without some kind Of pro-
lection. Since there would be no cost
to the government, unless IL was able
I to actually recover fines from the arm
or patriots, il can not be seen how
the government can well refuse this
proposition. There is little doubt but
that the government has paid hig.l
prices for inferior and doctored" and
defective armor plates, guns, and gun
forgings in scores Of instances without
the same being detected.
Any discussion as to armor frauds
necesitates the mention Of one Of oul

Doubtless the punch is possible but the

Not an officer or man here but is

paration; and the gain, Is miles long
and three miles deep was worth the
price because it proved that the allies

The Battle Of Champagne was the
