The dispatch from Ambassador
Gerard confirming the above state

submarine policy designed to settle
the question was not made public,
but the optimism Immediately re-
Elected at the state department and
the White House was taken as con-
vincing proof that the situation was
on the way to a settlement.
The more hopeful officials thought
the crisis had passed and Inferred
that the views which Ambassador Won
Bernstorff had been urging upon Ber-
lin ever since the sinking of the Lus-
itania had prevailed with the support
of the Liberals in Germany, who have
been opposing the anti-American pol

Secretary Lansing, while outward

Elected at the White House, where it
was indicated that President Wilson,

cleared up.
One fact was outstanding in the
whole situation. 1t was that fur

Germany outlining a policy which IS
eyrectcd to be satisfactory to the
J-nited States. 1t is understood that
Germany will announce a suspension
Of her submarine warfare on passen-

not to sink any merchantmen with
out warning pending a diplomatic
discussion of a proposal for modus

MARKS PASSING OF
 RACE HORSE FARM
Sale Of Thoroughbreds in Ken
 lucky to Begin Oct. 2S

Lexington, Ky, Oct. 16.-A sale of thoroughbreds which will begin Oc- tober 2S, will mark the passing of the race horse breeding farm, Elmendorf, an 5000 acre Bluegrass estate valued at $S,0O0,OOO, established near Lex 1ngton by the late James B. Haggin, who for twenty years was the greatest breeder of race hor.es in the world. The stallions, Ballot, Hessian and Sain, With sixty eight broodmares. and thir- ty-one yearlings are % go under the hammer.
 From the early nineties to 1910-11 Mr. Haggin imported from England and the Antipodes the celebrated stall lions, Watercress, Goidfinch, Darebin. Golden Garter, Sir Modred, Star Ruby Prestospans, Toddingion. Dieudonne, Greenan, Rapallo, Basset1ow and St. Andrew, and scores of highly bred mares and from those, and from American stock he developed and mar keted more race horses than all other American breeders or his time com bined.
 600 to 1000 Horses.
 Between 1894 and 1905 Mr Haggin maintained from 500 to 1000 stallions and mares at a 30,0Ov acre ranch in California known as tne Rancho del Paso stud, and from 1897 to 1912 there were from 150 to 300 stallions and mares at Elme.,ucrf, which place he began to organize in 1897 by purchas- ing the old Swigart 1arnt
 Rancho del Paso was abandoned in 1905 and the stallion.! and mares there were auctionc,'. N1r. Haggin buy ing the most desirable for Elmendorf.

 To obtain the stallion, Ballot, MT. Haggin paid the highest price given for a native American thoroughbred stallion since Sir Martin sold for $75.- 900 in 1908. Ballot won eighteen race, worth $15O,6O2 during his four years on the turf, in America and in England. The Suburban Handicap, at Sheepshead Bay, was one of his vic tories.
 There were upward of 250 mares and fifty or more stallions at Elmendorf when Governor Hughes of New York put through his ant1-racing laws of 1908 and 1910, and Mrs. Haggin. real izing that it would be impossible to IndTkeL III lHlS cOuHlIy lue piouu'>O of an establishment so considerable, without racing about New York to maintain a demand for young stock, began to ship his thoroughbreds to other countries. He sent yearlings to England and France for seven seasons, stallions and mares to the Argentine republic and mares to France, Eng land, ustria-Hungary and Germany. The breeders of the Argentine secured the famous stallions Kinley Mack, winner of the Brooklyn and Suburban handicaps in 1900, Africander, the greatest three-year- of 1903; Mo Chesney, one of the crack handicap , horses of 1903, England and France l and the Central Empires of Europe 1 got some of their best producing mares from Elmendorf

 The league has won one world series since 19o9-one out of the last six starts.
 It has a world series average of .144 since the Pirates trimmed the Tigers six years ago. Isn't it about time the older circuit was producing something except the short end of box scores?

  line the following might be used: The last three world series have Eeen played in limit of fourteen games-fve in 1913, four in 1914 and five in 1915. The limit for these three years-the number of games that might have been played-was twenty one. If there had been any trickery seven more games might have been crowded in since 1913 alone. Each of these seven games that were never played cost $50,00O in cash. The entire seven cost $350,000 in cash. Baseball, as a financial proposition, has paid small dividends, or no divi- dends, or has returned losses for the last year or so. Which hasn't pre- vented a total of $350,000 in three years being turned back to the fans solely because each game was played strictly on the level, without regard to cost.
