A union of all medical mission
aries Of the world to bring about q

by ". II. Grant. secretary of the
New York Missionary Conference Of
North America. before the seventh
annual medical missionary confer

THE teachings OF medical mis-
sionaries are altogether too irreg-
ular," said Mr.. Grant. "In some
countries they have had little ef-
feet, in others great good has been
done. A harmonious system under
one head Is necessary"
Mr.. Grant urged that the stronger
missionaries be consigned to the

NEW YORK STATE
 LEAGUE ON ROCKS
Mike O'Neill Quits Utica and Says He
 Doesn't Know How Circuit Can Start the Season.

Scranton, Pa, Jan. 1.-Michael J. O'Neill of this city, manager of the Utica baseball club of the New York State league for the past three sea- sons admitted that he had severed negotiations with the Utica owners and that he will not return there as manager in 1915.
 He said he intended to obtain his release from the Utes as a player, and would then begin dickering for an- other position. According to O'Neill the reason he will not return to Utica is the refusal of the magnates there to pay him the salary agreed upon last spring. when they gained an op- tion on his services for 1915. .
 Just now the New York State league is on the rocks" O'Neill de- clared. "If the owners make good their present promises, l cannot sec where they are going to get off. Play CTS on the reserve list will be hard to sign with the reduced limit and good men will not be obtainable until the big league teams start to unload their talent and then it will be a case oi all players taking the best terms they can obtain

Pa, and then to Pawtucket, and later to Waterbury.
 Bill Donovan received his first trial in the big leagues with the old Wash ington team of the National leagues in 1896, then managed by Arthur Irwin. but his wildness brought about his downfall and he was released to Richmond. From Richmond he journeyed to Hartford, where Brook lyn secured him late in 1900.
 Bill Developed in Brooklyn.
 With Brooklyn in 1901 Wild Bill developed into one of the stars of the profession, and while pitching g for Ebbets' last championship team he made 8 splendid record. He re- mained with Brooklyn the following year, but in the winter of 1902-03 he jumped to the Detroit Tigers, and in the treaty of peace he was awarded to the Tigers.
 Donovan was a great pitcher with Detroit, despite the poor Detroit teams before the Jennings regime, but he did not get the credit due him until 1907, when by winning twenty five out of twentynine games, he pitched the Tigers into their first American league championship. In the crucial game of the year between the Tigers and Athletics, Donovan held the Athletics to a seventeen in ming tie, and enabled Detroit to win by a few points.
 Donovan will be in absolute charge of the playing end of the Yankees. There is one thing I would like to say" said Captain Huston, "and that is that Bill Donovan will be in abso- lute command of the team. We in- tend to leave everything to Bill. We believe that Donovan knows his busi- ness, and we do not intend to give him any advice or suggestions. He will be absolute boss as far as the playing end of the club is concerned.'

DONOVAN IS EIGHTH
 MANAGER OF TANKS
Aud "WEd Bill" is Expected to
 Be Biz Success.

New York, Jan. 1.-Wild Bill Don ovan, former star pitcher of the De- troit Tigers, and once an employe of Charles Hercules Ebbets in Brook lyn, will be the eighth manager of the New York Yankees, if Roger Peckinpaugn may be included in the list. The Ancient Order Of Former Yankee managers includes Clark Griffith, Norman Elbergeld, George Stallings, Harold Chase, Harry Vol verton, Frank Chance and Roger Peckinpaugh
 Ban Johnson said yesterday that the new Yankee owners tried up to the last minute to get Hughie Jen- nings for manager, but that Navin absolutely refused to listen to any proposition to take the Ee--yah man away from Detroit.
 However, Wild Bill Donovans ap- pointm ent as Yankee chieftain meets with the hearty approval of New York fans. Donovan for years was one of the shrewdest pitchers in baseball, a player liked by every one who ever came in contact with him, and d thorough gentleman.
 Donovan should make good as a major league mana ger,' said Ed Bar rows, president of the International league, who managed the Detroit club shortly after Donovan jumped the Brooklyns during the American league uprising.
 Has Good Influence. 'I never had finer player work for me than Donovan" continued Barrows, Tor a player who had a bet ter influence on a team. No matter 1 what happened, Bills smiling face ! always would straighten out the diff 1 ficulty. Donovan is a find. and the 1 new owners should be congratulated ] on securing such fine, efficient fel-
 low for their manager.
 l Bill Donovan was thirty-eight years 1 old last October, being born on an
 unlucky day in the Centennial year. 1 Bill was born in Lawrence, Mass, : on October 13, 1876. but shortly i after his birth his parents moved to Philadelphia, where Bill still

West Point, Jan. 1-.The schedule makers for Army football report con sidera ble progress in the matter of a program for 1915. It has been defi- nitely decided that Stevens will not be included. The Hoboken mana cement considers the contest with the Cadets too hard for so early in the season.
 To take the place of the Stevens contest several strong elevens have made proposals to the management. among which are Georgetown, Wasl,- ington and Jefferson, Pittsburg, Syra- cuse and North Carolina A. and NJ. Georgetown has been accorded the vacant place.
 Notre Dame will come out of the West again next fall to meet the Army here early in November.

The complete record of the basket scoring of the New Britain High school quintet thus far, compiled be- low, shows Captain Schade far ahead of his fellow players, leading Tuthill, the second man, by fifteen points, all though ne has played in only two games.

 Just a dozen years ago tonight Joe Cans was awarded his fight with Gus Gardner in the eleventh round of their twenty y-round battle at the Casino, the go ending when Gardner fouled the negro.
 The fight was the mecca for a big gathering of sporting men and, &C., cording to the files of the Herald for that day, there was a great display of glad raiment and diamonds. Money was bet at the ringside, some- thing that they won't stand for in these more civilized days

 1900--Kid Mccoy knocked out Peter Maher in the fifth round at Coney Island. McCoy's easy victory over the big Irishman was one of the greatest surprises ever pulled off. The battle was staged on the afternoon of New Years day, and was to go twenty-five rounds, for a purse of s2O,o00 The tip had been passed around among the New York sports that the fight was to be a fake, and that the Hoosier was to quit. As a result, heavy odds were offered in Maher's favor Pittsburgh Phil,' a noted plunger, wagered a fortune on ] Maher, and hundreds of other "wise" ones put their coin on Peter, expect ing to reap a rich harvest. Before the fight began Maher's admirers presented him with a floral horse shoe, but a hundred horsesnoef wouldn't have helped Peter that day In the first round Mccoy floored him and after that it was nearly all Nc.
