He has taken the place of Claude
Hendrix as the truck horse Of the
club and is also surprisingly effective.
This good record isn't being made
because the Federal league is weak.
Batting records in that organization
are swollen, and they are being made
against good pitching. Therefore Nc
COnneI's performances are worthy
of the closest attention. He has done
more work than any man on the team
and is TinkeT'S one best bet when
game is wanted badly. He allowed
Kansas City four hits yesterday and
was never in danger. StOvau, be it
remembered, boasts some sterling
clOuteTs among his hired hands.
Because of the excellent baseball
they have been playing lately, Tink-
er's fellows are only one game out of
first place, Kansas City and st, Louis
being practically bracketed for the
honor, though a difference in the
number of games played does not
give the same percentage.
Tinker is resorting to every strata
gem to cut down this margin. He
has benched Johnny Farrell and ROl-
lie Zeider is playing second base.
Tinker is not through with Farrell by
any means. He believes Johnny is
a baIIpIayer and will follow the same
system with him that benefited Jim
my Smith. A IayOff sent Smith back
to the game steady and with his bat
ting eye polished.
In the meantime, Zeider, with his
back strong again, is physically able
to hold up his end, and Fritz is play
ing some improved ball at third base.
There is no game at the North Side
park today. One was scheduled, but
it was a mistake of the mapmakers
and has been officially Cancelled.

SOx is nothing to give a team a feel
ing of security.
Washington opens today, and
though the Griffmen have been easy
for their eastern neighbors, they
have given the Sox a tussle all sea-
son. The Red SOX, however, will be
playing Detroit, and the Tigers are no
soft afternoons pastime. A thTee-tO-
one licking for Washington should
give the SOX a lead of at least an
other game over the CaTTigans, who
will be doing well to split with the
Tigers. "a

left field in the opener, Roth being
benched and Felsch slipping to sixth
place in the batting order, where his
bat, following the stick of John Col
Inns, should drive in several runs.
Red Murray has signed with the
Cubs. He and Bresnahan had not
come to terms until last night 1t is
believed Roger will use the flame

In some quarters it was believed
that Murray would dispIace Cy Will

the records shows that Williams is

climbing in the averages. He is sew

must also be remembered that Viii

In reality, Cy has been hitting even
harder than the records indicate. Sew

invites Applications Through
U. S. Trade Advisers on Re-
lease of Goods.

WASHINGTON Sept 24.-The Brit
ish government is prepared to re-
ceive applications unofficially through
the foreign trade advisors of the state
department for release of $f67 100000
worth of American owned goods OF
German and Austrian origin held at
Rotterdam by the British Orders in
Council.
AT the request Of the trade ad-
visors the British embassy here will
submit a written statement of the
condition under which goods will be
released.
Negotiations have been in progress
for months unofficially seeking re-
lease OF the vast quantity of mer-
chandise consigned to American inns
porters, and already either paid for
or contracted for under agreements
which make the American buyers
liable for payment. On June 10, the
British government refused to receive
further unofficial representations
through the trade advisers. Since
then the pressure on the state de-
partment has been heavy, American
Importers asserting that, without
notice of the order in council ana
without an opportunity to protect
themselves, they had contracted for
these goods in some cases had already
paid for them and in all cases were
liable for the purchase money

j. S. BANKERS
VIEWS ON LOAN
ARE ACCEPTED
Foreign Agents ReconciIed to
$500, 900, 900 Credit on
Wall ST. Terms.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-Members of
the Anglo-French financial commits
sion, it was reported today, have dis
carded their previous views on GER
tain MAJOR details of the proposed
credit loan to be established here to
Great Britain and France and have
accepted, instead, the suggestion Of
American financiers on all cardinal
points. With the change reported in
the attitude of the commission ne
gotiations proceeded smoothly today
tward the establishment of a credit
along the followiwng lines:
The amount to be $500, 900 900 or,
possibly, little more; the price to
the investor to be slightly below par,
the joint Anglo-French notes issued
convertible, at option, into fifteen
or twenty-year Anglo French bonds
paying four and one-half per cent.
interest; Russia probably to be elm
mated as a participant.
Heretofore the chief points OF diff
ferences, 1t was reported. concerned
the size of the loan, the interest rate,
the price to the investor and the mat
ter of Russia's participation. If the
commissions views were correctly re-
fiected, they wanted a billion dollars
at Az per cent, the notes to be sold
at par and Russia to participate.
There were indications today with
the commissions adoption Of the
views of American bankers, which
were at variance with their own on
these four principal points, that an
agreement on all prime matters con-
nected with the loan be reached with
in several days. When an agreement
is reached it was said the commission
will then narrow it's conferences to a
group of New York financiers repre-
senting the moneyed interests of the
entire country.

Ford to Withdraw
Money from Banks
That Aid War Loan
He Would Tie Tin Can to
Anglo-French Com
mission.

NEW YORK, Sept 24-"If any Of
the banks which have money belong
ing to the Ford Motor Company or
to me personally participate in the
Anglo French loan, l will withdraw
every penny from them"
This was Henry Ford's ultimatum
expressed here today.
"You know who is in favor of the
loan?" he asked. and then answered
his own question. THE militarists
want to see the loan successful, for
they are the ones who will profit
most.
IF I had my way, ] would tie a
tin can to the Anglo French commits
sioners and send them back whore
they came from"
Ford declared also that he does not
approve of the offering as collateral
the French and English securities,
when these countries have good
American stocks and bonds which
should be put UP for security.
Ford left for Boston at noon today.

ARCHITECT FEES
ON NLMSHOUSE
ARE IN DISPUTE
O'Rourke Claims He Does Not
Have to Pay Curtin, Fur
niture Expert.

Joseph B. O'Rourke, of the firm of
jeremiah O'Rourke & Sons, archi-
tects, said today after a talk with
City Counsel Spauldlng Frazer that
the City Counsel will file O. written
opinion with the City Auditor, in
forming the latter that the $500 voted
to the architect by the poor and aims
committee as part payment on SER
vices should be paid to Mr.. 0Rourke.
The money has been held up by an
estoppel order secured by John p.
Curtin, who claims that half OF the
$500 is due him.
The City Counsel has ruled, so Mr..
O'Rourke said, that the $500 in ques-
ton is for work done in 1915 by
O'Rourke and for work ordered sub
sequently to the hiring of Mr.. Curtin.
The dispute relates to the furnish
ings for the Ivy Hill almhouse. Mr..
Curtin was engaged in 1914 by the
poor and aims committee as equip
ment appraiser and to draw up speci-
fications for the bids for furnishings.
The equipment contract was awarded
to the NJ. j. O'Connor's Sons Com
pany, but was declared invalid by the
Supreme Court upon the ground that
the specifications were faulty
Mr.. Curtin presented a bill OF ST.
099. so for services rendered, Whlcn
City Counsel Frazer declared to be in
valid
The 1915 poor and aims committee
was instructed to secure bids. 1t en-
gagged the O'Rourke firm to do the
work done by Curtin for the 1914
committee. Recently the committee
voted the O'Rourke firm $500 on ac-
count.
The city auditors office, however,
declined to honor the bill because of
the Curtin claim. Mr.. Curtin's claim
called for five per cent. of the ten
per cent allowed the architect.
1t is understood that Mr.. Curtin
will carry the matter into the courts.
He prepared all of the specifications
on which thhe furniture bids were
made and also gave his personal su-
pervision to the final selections. He
asserts that the ORourke concern
has used the Curtin specifications on
the work ordered by the 1915 poor and
aims committee.

Archibald May Not Be
Prosecuted in Absence
of Law Covering Case

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-James F.
]. Archibald, the American who acted
as messenger for DR.. Constantin T..
Dumba Austro- Hungarian Ambassa-
dor here, probably will not be prose-
cuted by the Department of Justice.
Examination of the papers relating to
Archibald's activities has not been
completed by the department, but
some officials say there is no statute
covering the case. As result of the
incident, however. it was said that
Congress would be urged to enact a
law to cover such cases.
Archibald's attorney today re-
auested an appointment for his client
with Acting Secretary Polk for fur
ther explanation of his claim that he
had not consciously misused his
American passport. The interview
will be granted as soon as the state
Department has received copies of all
the documents taken from Archibald. !.

a Bit by Sunshine

The autumn season started in bit
warmer than the summer season went
out, the lowest temperature this
morning being 40, four degrees higher
than yesterdays lowest but tomor-
row will be quite bit colder unless
the indications observed by the fore
caster at noon today were misleading
Just how cold it will be tomorrow
he did not care to say but contented
himself with the generalization:
colder and somewhat cloudy Fri
day night and Saturday" The tenn
perature at noon today was 66, the
same mark as yesterdays highest,
and twelve-mile wind was blowing
from the west. Moderate, variable
winds probably will prevail over to-
morrow.

NEWARK FAIR
REVIVAL URGED
BY J. NJ. REILLY
Trade Board Secretary De-
cIares City Has Facilities and
1t Would Boom Business.

That Newark offers better facilities
for an agricultural exhibit, in Other
words, q State fair, than any othel
place in the State is the belief OF
James M. Reilly. secretary of the
Newark Board of Trade. Mr.. Reilly
was a guest of the officials at the
Allentown fair yesterday, While in
specting the magnificent agricultural
exhibit there he was reminded of
Newark's latent possibilities in this
direction. In speaking of the fair this
morning he deplored the fact that the
fair held at Waverly years ago, which
was attended by thousands of people
is an institution of the past. He was
optimistic In his opinion that there is
a possibility of reviving the State
fair in Newark. Mr.. Reilly was SUI
perintendent of the speedway depart
ment for the old State Fair Associa-
tion for about fifteen years. The ex-
hibits We're held at Waverly on the
tract of land now Weequahic Park.
The last fair was held In 1899
In speaking of again conducting ag-
ricultural exhibits in Newark, Mr..
Reilly said:
Best Facilities for Exhibit.
This county offers better facilities
for an agricultural exhibit than any
other in New Jersey. One reason Is
that transportation facilities are more
convenient than in the old days of
the State fair at Waverly. Men of
wealth, who were building country
homes, came to Waverly in order to
make proper selection Of livestock,
farming implements and things
productive of dairies and gardens.
The reputation OF the Waverly Fair
was widespread, and when q blue
ribbon was awarded to a certain
breed of. animal, it was known that
such stock was of the highest stand
ard, as only expert judges were en-
ployed. Stock breeders recognized
this fact and knew that if their stock
received a blue ribbon 1t meant an
increase in its value. This reputa-
ton brought exhibitors from points
as far as Illinois, and it was not
common to have from fifteen to
twenty breeds competing In the same
class.
THE merchants OF Newark at that
time failed to realize the value of the
fair as a trade getter. Each day dur
ing the exhibit there would be from
ten to twenty thousand visitors. II
another group of men would form
IHtlhSblNtS lliO flil dIb
select the right site for a local fail
grounds there is no reason why II
should not become great institution
and be success from the start.
"The floral, poultry and food shows
and various other form of exhibits
which are held in Newark all indicate
that widespread interest could bt
aroused by a simple commencement
of the movement to again inauguratt
Newark fair.
Probably $50 or more Newarkerf
journeyed to Allentown yesterday Il
satisfy their desire and longing tc
visit an agricultural fair, and hun
dreds of others will go to Trenton
during the coming week.
"With Newark's railroad and troll
ley facilities and excellent roads fol
automobile travel, and with the righ
class of men at the head, an agricul
tural exhibition could be set up herr
which would be a permanent business
getter for the merchants of this city.

LAWYER MAY have.
TO EXPLAIN To
THE BAR ASSN
VIM. CreenfieId's Transactions
in the Case of Bankrupt Nor
ris Weissbord Questioned.

That william Greenfield, a local
lawyer, will have to appear before
the bar association and explain his
Weissbord, bankrupt, was the asser-
tion made at a lively hearing in
Bankruptcy Court today.
Harold Remington, counsel for
Weissbord, a grocer ut 318 New Jer-
sey Railroad avenue, was the per-
son who threatened to bring about
an inquiry of Greenfield's actions
According to Greenfields own ad-
missions he does not remember hay-
ing caused an assignment to be made
in the Welssbord case, although he
served notice on opposing counsel
that such an assignment had been
made. Greenfield was also forced to
admit that he never caused a change
of notice TO be served on opposing
counsel to rectify the sworn state
ment that an assignment had been
made. The assignment, Greenfield
swore today. had never been made.
Early in 1914 Greenfield, as counsel
for II. Koch e. Co, local wholesale
grocers, filed an Involuntary petition
in bankruptcy against Weissbord.
The latter through his counsel,
Harold Remington and Selick j,
Mlndes, fought the case. There was
jury trial in the Newark Branch
of the United States District Court
before Judge Thomas G. Haight, and
Weissbord was acquitted.
Sought Damages from Creditors.
Judge Haight then ordered the re-
ceiver, who was in possession oi
Weissbord's property, to turn it back
to the grocer. Weissbord sought
damages from the creditors who
threw him into bankruptcy. The
