GREAT PEACE LEAGUE
TO GROW OUT OF WAR
SAYS PROF. J. CLARK

LAKE MOHONK, N. V, May 90
Prof. John S. Clark, of Columbia, Uni
versity, discussed the possibility of
using the Triple Entente, the Triple
Alliance or combination of both as
the nucleus of a world peace league
at the end of the war, in a speech here
today before the conference on inter
national arbitration.
is it desirable to make plans for a
wholly new league which shall pre-.
serve the peace of the world?" he
asked. 1.-TWO International alliances
now exist each of which acts toward
the outer world somewhat as a single
empire might do. They are waging a
terrible war with each other, but it is
TOO lightly assured that they naturally
tend to increase warfare.
THE union of small political divis
ions is the natural mode Of building
large states, and these suppress wars
within their boundaries. They make
wars international rather than inter
nal and SO cause the conflicts which
occur to be larger than they would
otherwise be; but they ensure long in
tervals of peace. Moreover, the inter
national warfare is less paralyzing tc
the industries of country than the
local warfare which it succeeds.
"If new league of peace should be
formed on any of the plans which
find most favor, the Entente or the
Alliance would have to continue as {
smaller union within it. The single ma
tons embraced within the larger bod.
| cannot afford to forego the protection
which the smaller combination nov
affords. A natural mode of accomplish
ing all that is desired is to enlarge
one of the existing leagues and Civ,
it the needed provision for settlin:
disputes among its members-tt
make it as we'll guarded within as i
is without"

BILL TAMM A YANKEE.
Newburg Third Baseman Will Get
Trial-Pipp and High Lost.

NEW YORK, February 12.-The Yam
KEGS signed a new ball player yester-
day in Bill Tamm. who played third
base last season with the Newburg
club of the Atlantic League He had
batting average of .295.
Manager Bill Donovan returned from
Detroit yesterday after his unsuccess-
full trip to sign First Baseman Pipp
and Outfielder High. The owners of
the Yankees are disappointed at the ac-
ton of these players after the big
prices they paid for them. Pipp and
High are untried players and it is not
known that they would make good as
major leaguers. Col Rupert stated
yesterday. after talking with Donovan,
that Pipp's position was unreasonable,
because he believes that he should
jump at the chance to play In New
York with the bright prospects of the
club under the new regime. There is
no doubt. Col Rupert said, that II
Pipp and High made good after they
joined the club, they had assurance
that they would be literally treated.
The new owners. however. have come
to the conclusion. like President Gaff-
ney of the Boston Braves. that they
will not be held up by ball players be-
cause of the present unsettled condi-
tions of the game.

BY n. C. BYRD.

The George Washington University
| indoor track and field games are to
take place tomorrow evening at Con-
vention Hall. Thirty-six events are
listed. there being the usual quota of
open contests besides several novice
and scholastic competitions. The fea-
lures of the meet will be the relay
races and the scratch events between
representatives of the colleges in the
South Atlantic Intercollegiate Associa-
tions. The first event, the ffty-yard
novice. is to be started at 1880 o'clock.
The entry list and the schedule of
races show that an Interesting program
has been arranged. Not only will there
be some good competition in the open
events, but the intercollegiate races
are sure to be exceedingly good. Also
there are several relay races which
will be of especial interest. AS whole.
the meet ought to be the best ever held
under the auspices of the Hatchetites.
The star event of the evening Is sure
to be that between Cornell and Vir-
ginia at one mile. The two institu-
tions wdll be represented by very good
quartets unless they have much weak
er teams than usual, which is not like
~. The last race between Virginia and
Cornell at Convention Hall was
thrilling affair, and the one tomorrow
is sure to be close and interesting
The race in which Johns Hopkins and
Lehlgh are to figure also should be
well run. Both these schools put out
capable combinations, and each is said
to be well represented this season.
TWO other college events are those in
which the regular mile team of the
Maryland Aggies will meet the quartet
representing ST. Johns College, and
| the other is to be between 1,20O-yard
four from M. A. c. and Gallaudet. These
| races should be very evenly contested,
as the runners have appeared to be of
about the same strength.

GEORGE WASHINGTON GAMES
SCHEDULED TOMORROW NIGHT
Hatchetites Have Arranged an Attractive
List of Events, Relay Races Being
Expected to Feature

For the first time in a long while East
ern and Western will meet in a dual
event. If Maxam figures in this event
for Western it should win, but II he
does not there ought not to be much
of a margin for either team at the
finish
Three two-mile relays are scheduled,
one to take place between two colleges
and the others between athletic clubs.
The George Washington University
team is to run against Washington and
Lee in a two-mile championship af-
fair, while the Baltimore Central Y. NJ.
e. A. to meet the Baltimore Cross
Country Club. and the Carroll Institute
is to show against the Columbia Ath-
letic Club Both the last mentioned
are local quartets
Besides the relays already mentioned
there will be contests between several
smaller clubs, at distances ranging
from 500 to 1900 yards. The feature
miie event between preparatory schools
will be that between the Baltimore City
College. Woodbury. Forest School and
Episcopal High School, These are gen
orally the best of scholastic quartets
in the section, and their event should
furnish some of the most spirited and
closest competition of the evening
Only one thing now seems necessary
to the success of the games, which is
to keep the floor clear of hangers-on
and useless officials. The management
of the meet would be justified in adopt
ing drastic measures to attain this
purpose, as there are few meets held
at Convention Hall in which this is
properly done. The Hatchetites claim
they are going to enforce the rule to-
morrow night. and If they make good
will confer great favor on everybody
that attends. There are sometimes
about twice as many officials on the
floor as are necessary, and these do
not always do their duty in keeping
persons off the floor who have really
no business there whatever. If George
Washington keeps its floor clear to-
morrow it will do much to insure the
success of it's games and the comfort
and pleasure of the spectators, who
pay the money that makes the meet
possible.
