Auto Dealers Have
Decided to Move
To a New Location

Omaha auto dealers at a meeting
held at noon decided upon a new
location for auto row. They will try
to move it to Howard street between
Eighteenth and Twentieth streets.
This move was brought about because
Of increasing rents along Farnam
street.
The committee which has been
working up a new location reported
favorably on the new site and the
dealers are going out at once to try
to secure contracts for the land,
much of which is owned by the
Kountze interests. The dealers ex-
pect to build their own buildings and
thus stop paying rent.
Some had already arranged to move
off Farnam street.

IT'S EXPENSIVE ID
 ARGUE WITH AN LIMP
New London Players Discover
 This to the Tune Of S55

Springfield, Mass, June 3.-"Gene' McCanr's Millionaires won a spark ling ball game from the Green SoX' 4 to 3, at League park yesterday aft ernoon before HOO fans, and just to show that they have the cash they clipped in $55 for the benefit of the Eastern league treasury. The con- tribution was not voluntary, though. It came in the form of assessments for excessive gas, or as Umpire Ban non says, unnecessary remarks The trouble started because Jake" Becker got huffy in the sixth inning when he was Jagged trying to steal home. He said something unkind to the um- Dire that cost him $10 and his dis nissal from the ball park. Along came Manager H. Eugene McCann to find out what the rumpus was all about.
 Gene dug so deep into the invcs- tigation that he was assessed $35 and Shortstop O'Conneu, who was assist ing McCann and Becker, was soaked S1O Becker was also heaved out of the park, but O'Connell was tolerated. Now it happened before Slim Dan iels had even fired a ball at the open ing of the game that the umpire de- tected by ear, eye or nose, gas leaking from the New London dugout. He got busy right away and ordered Pitchers Manning, Fortune and Mar tin to leave the bench, which they did Later "Steve' Manning was al- lowed to come back and take care of right field while Becker was serv- ing his sentence. The loss of so much money in fines would be some thing for everybody but the Million aires While Umpire Ramon was telling Manager McCann he would fine him $10 if he did not quit the de- bate and go to the bench in a hurry. Gene" said, You can make it S100 if you want" Some class!

''Is it on the level-is it really true," writes a fan from a small town, ''that Christy Mathewson has come back? It doesn't seem possible, considering the work he has done in the last sixteen years.'
 According to the deep inner feel ings of several clubs that Mathewson has met the statement is practically rue At least they seem to have a hunch that ha has started in that general direction at least.
 Colonel Cornelius McGillicuddy has worked wonders with a young team, and he may, as quoted, win a pen nsnt by 1917. But we doubt very much that the latter event takes place unless Connie can discover some wonderful tanning process to apply to several of his young pitchers Having the stuff is one thing.
