NEWARK GETS SEATON
Camel Trades Cowboy Tom
for Cy Falkenberg.

John Camel. the new manager Of
the Tin Tops. performed his first off
cial act yesterday, when he traded
Cowboy Tom Seaton to the Newark club
for Cy Falkenberg. Seaton's pitching
has been erratic lately, it being eX-
rlained that he IS troubled with a sore
arm. With the exception Of Lee Ma
gee. Seaton received the highest sal
ary on the Brooklyn club, $500.
Falkenberg started off well for New
ark, but he has proved an unreliable
moundsman for some time. He was
purchased along with Benny kauif
when the Indianapolis team was sold
early this season.
BROOKLYN fans will see Falkenoerg
in q Tin Ton uniform this afternoon,
when he is scheduled TO pitch one game
of the double-headcr with ST. Louis.
1t will be the first double attraction

MISS GALLIGAN
SHOWS SPEED
In THE WATER
Captures the 100 and 440
Yard Races in Big Car
niVal at KeanSburg.

The fair mermaids of the National
Women's Life Saving League were the
chief attraction at the annual set Of
water sports held yesterday at Keans-
burg, n. j., under the auspices of the
carnival association.
Their performances compared favor
ably with those Of the men competit-
ors, although several of the crack local
performers were on hand.
The feature. of the meet was the
swimming of Miss Clare Galligan, OF
New Rochelle, new recruit to the
league She captured both the 100 and
44O yard races in decisive manner, us
ing a smooth, rhythmic trudgeon-crawl
stroke.
While a favoring tide prevented an
accurate estimate Of her speed, 1t is
significant of her ability that she Gov
cred the quarter-mile course within
twenty-five seconds of the time made
bv the victor in the mems event at the
distance. Actually, though. Miss Lucy
Freeman outswam Miss Galligan, for
She conceded a l2-second handicap and
finished about seconds behind her.
Miss Helen Peitler, a newcomer in the
field. finished a close third from the 30
second mark.
The fancy diving contest. for WON
en-. demonstrated once more the marked
superiority of Miss Josephine Bartlett.
The league champion. over all rivals IN
the metropolitan district. The scoring
rules of the Amateur Athletic Union
were enforced for the first time, and
she defeated her field by an overwhelm-
ing margin, in spite Of granting liberal
handicaps. She totalled 1900 points,
as against 1872 garnered by Miss Fannie
Williams and l47.40 by Miss Daisy
GTeenhall.
Two sets of events were held for
men; one under A. A. L. supervision,
the other, unsanctioned, for summer
residents of Keansburg.
In the former John Curran, of the
New York Athletic Club. and Alexander
J. Palencsar, of the Hungarian-Ameri-
can Athletic Association, were the In
dividual stars. Curran won the 200
ward swim and took third in the 100
ward dash. Palencsar captured the 440-
yard handicap, and was placed second
in the century swim.

LEGISLATURES PASSED
NEARLY 400 NEW LAWS

Topeka. March 24.-It is proba'
BILE that when all the legislative en-
actments are enrolled the record
will show the passage of nearly 40O
new laws and resolutions. Many OF
the errors OF the executive and ju-
dicial appropriation bills have been
corrected and the house and senate
record concerning the matter patch
ed up.
Stones anti-discrimination act,
modelled on the Clayton federal act
and extending the state law to the
purchasing as we'll as the sale of
commodities, has been passed. The
act does not apply to corporations
under the control of the public util-
titles commission or the banking de-
partment. It defines discrimination
as the Intentional buying at a high
er rate or selling at lower rate In
a section that is charged in another
section of the state, with the inten-
ton Of promoting unfair business.
Violation is subject to a fine Of
$4,000 or a years imprisonment or
both, and this applies to every Of
ficer and person connected with the
violating the act. Each
may be prosecuted separately; the
acquittal of one will not save any
Of the others from action.
Governor Capper also signed the.
new "blue sky" law recently passed
by the Kansas legislature. This new
act repeats the old Dolley statute
On the subject. The new law applies
only to speculative securities and
but is very stringent In
It's terms and requirements as to
that class Of securities.

A Warshap VIII Help Finance Ship
ments Of Hemp from Yucatan
CAN'T SHIP A LARGE SUPPLY
American Manufacturers Get Secre-
tary Daniels Consent to Aid
In Relieving the Present
Scarcity
CAN'T SHIP A LARGE SUPPLY

Washington, March 24.-An
American warship will take to Yu-
catan money to finance the move
ment of Mexico's sisal hemp crop,
needed to make Irvine for binding
the enormous wheat crop Of the
farmers Of the United States this
year. The money-$625,000 In
currency, which manufacturers pro-
pose to advance to the hemp grow
ers-is in bank vaults at Galveston
but until today no safe means OF
getting it to Mexico had been found.
Secretary Daniels agreed to per-
init the use Of a, warship for the
purpose, after hearing a statement.
by Edward C. Heidrich Jr. Of Pc
oria, Illinois, representing the sisal
purchasers, who outlined the diff
culties that had been encountered.
There is said to be some 100000
bales Of sisal ready for shipment at
Progreso, the port, and Merida, the
railway center Of Yucatan. Since
the United States government pre-
vented Carranza from blockading
Progreso, the chief obstacles in the
way of moving this supply have
been scarcity of labor and shipping
facilities.

BELIEVE BANK CLERK
SKIPPED WITH so, 900

Arkansas City, March 18.-There
are NO new developments In the
Traders State bank case in which
It is alleged that W. H. Hume,
bookkeeper and stakeholder in the
bank, took between $4,000 and ST.
900 from the banks vault and then
disappeared. 1t is believed here that
he had between $4,000 and $780,
900 when he left.
The bank officials have charged
the loss to the surplus fund and are
trying to forget the incident. The
bank is in no way affected by the
loss and is still doing business.
There are a number Of runners re-
garding different phases of the case
but none Of these can be substan-
tiated. The Fourth National bank
of Wichita claims that 1t delivered
the $4,000 in currency ordered on
Saturday to a representative Of the
bank in good faith and that insti-
tuition will not have to stand the
loss. The Traders State bank has
placed the case in the hands Of the
Burns detective agency.
