THREE AMERICAS

PRESIDENT SEES PROUD DIS
TINCTION FALL TO NATIONS.
PERMANENT PEACE IN SIGHT
Wilson Delivers Address Before FL
nanciaI Conference at Washing
TONI. S. May Buy Ships #
Private interests Can't.

Washington, May %. - President
Wilson declared that a proud distinc.
ton might fall upon the nations of the
three Americas-North, Central and
South America-that of showing the
way to permanent peace.
In an address at the Pan-American
Financial conference he predicted that
great results would arise from it and
that it might be influential in restor-
ing peace to war-ridden Europe.
The president said mat the only
kind of rivalry in which the nations
of the western hemisphere were en-
gagged was rivalry of excellence and
one which does not involve aggres-
sion.
No Aggression by U. s.
He said that there was no hint or
purpose of exploitation in the interest
which the United States is now tax
ing in her neighbors to the south.
He declared only one thing still
was In the way of closer commercial
intercourse between the American ma
tons, and that was lack of ships. He
made clear his belief that If private
capital did not soon supply the ships,
the United States government must
undertake to do SO.
President Wilson declared that the
bonds of trade now being forged be-
tween the American republics would
be permanent. He said it had taken
a world crisis to show the American
nations their essential unity, but now
that they had awakened to the fact
that they were neighbors, there was
no danger that they would forget It,

International League Is First

Annual Powwow
Special to The Telegraph

New York, Dec. 13.-Winter base
ball activities began here to-day with
the gathering of club owners to at
tend the annual meetings of the In
ternational and National leagues.
Edward G. Barrow, president of the
international league, was on hand
early to open the meeting of that
body to-day.
Il shall continue at the head of
the International League" said Mr..
Barrow. Il have every reason to be
lleve that the coming season will
prove more successful than the past
believe we have safely passed the
worst part of the road"
Mr.. Barrow would not discuss any
plans he may have for territorial
changes. 1t was reported that an eff
fort would be made at to-day's meet
ing to transfer franchises to Spring
held, Mas, or Hartford, Conn.
August Hermann, president of the
Cincinnati club was one of the first

Columbia, Yale, Princeton and Rut-

The game has been found to be very

many baseball players take it up in

is boon to the ball player in the
winter season.
There's more TO the Legore Incl

ball; there's more to the Bricllley case
than has been debated at Trinity or
Columbia. They are symptoms only;
in short, there's a situation and prob
lem in college athletic circles that will
be thrashed out this winter by the au-
thorities." The New York Sun makes
this statement.

PEACE PLANS TO
COME THIS WEEK
National League Head Willing
For Settlement on His
Terms
Special 10 The Telegraph

New York, Dec. 1S.-In the opinion
of National League magnates. peace
must come soon or not at all The
meeting, scheduled TO start to-mor-
row promises to be the most i'm
portant, since the American League
fought for recognition.
From all quarters reports have
been spread that a peace protocol
may be signed early next week which
will bring the Federal League into
the fold and spike the guns which
fans and magnates agree have bark
ed too long for the good of the game.
There may be many trades, too, for
there is not team in the league
which feel that it can rest secure
with it's present material.
There is little doubt that peace will
be proposed at this meeting. Presi-
dent Tener is not opposed to an ad-
justment of conditions which will
work for the betterment of the game.
He sounded the note the other day
when he said that before any peace
could be made with the cohorts of
Gilmore all the leagues working un-
der the National Agreement would
have to be consulted.
1t has been rumored recently that
several men allied with the Federal
League have sought the opportunity
to buy the franchises of National
League clubs. Harry F. Sinclair, Ed
Gwinner, Phil Ball and George S.
Ward were named. If they still de-
sire to invest their money, ex-Gover-
or Tener will not oppose them. He
said that the sellin gof a franchise
was distinctly a matter of private en-
terprise, even If the purchasers were
men now interested in the outlaw
league.
Governor Tener's pacific attitude
leads many to believe that he is paw
ing the way for the announcement of
peace. 1t is known that Schuyler
Britton, part owner of the Cardinals
has been in conference with certain
men in the Federal League and has
set a price upon his holdings in the
St Louis club. Not long ago Jim
Gaffney practically admitted that he !
would consider selling some of his
stock in the Boston Braves. and
Charley Taft might listen to an offer
for the Chicago Cubs.
