Baseball Fraternity May
Get Jolt in New Orleans

csprices will not 60 "a Class "A. They
expect major league pay on msJor
league efort-or rather lack of enort
in many instances.
Must Readjust Salaries
"A readjustment of salaries both in
the majors and minors is bound to
come with the expiration OF wartime
contracts" Irwin continued. Il belieVe
you will see the majors and minors get
together for mutual protective dement's
before another spring. i should not be
surprised If most Of the major league
powers attended the big minor league
rally in New Orleans next week.
"As TO the fraternity demands, con-
cluded Irwin, at really is 10 laugh.
The frsternity's hold is broken now
that the Federal League is gone. This
fraternity has only one recourse
strike. ! do not believe one-tenth OF
the members would ever agree to gen.
eral strike. The leading powers OF the
fraternity are the stars, with fancy
contracts. A strike would abrogate
such documents and throw the Of
tenders on the mercy of their en-
ployers.
II do not think there will ever be
baseball strike. do think club owners
realize fully the need to curb the grow
ing tendency to interference on the
part Of the players. | shouldn't be at
all surprised IL something definite
along these lines developed in New Or
leans"

Minor Leagues Oppose
Any Change in Con-
tracts of Players
Ry W. J. MACBETH

The determination Of President
David l. Fultz Of the Baseball Players
Fraternity TO make an issue of the in
jury clause in organized baseball con-
tracts is expected TO add an unusual
touch Of high life TO the annual meet
ing OF the National Association in
New Orleans next week.
From reliable source minor
league president close to both Ban
Johnson and John Farrell, association
secretary-it was learned yesterday
that the powers Of the major and minor
leagues intend TO seize upon this op-
portunity TO force a showdown with the
union and prove to the doubling
Thomases that the war is over.
For obvious reasons, the authority
for 1.-THE foregoing information did not
wish to have his identity disclosed at
this time.
Oppose Any Changes
81 know" said he, "that the minor
leagues are opposed to any contract
changes. More especially so when the
Fraternity demands them. This play
ers' union has never been popular with
the minor leagues, which feel they
were imposed upon during the Federal
League war. The National Association
never has recognized the Fraternity,
and l do not think it will begin to do
so now.
'The minor leagues are confronted
with problems far more serious. Re
forms in relations with the major
leagues seem far more imperative than
any possible misunderstandings with
the baseball players union. l know,
further, that the National Commission
is prepared to back up the National AS
ISOLATION in whstever policy 1t cares to
adopt toward this latest presumption
on the part of the Fraternity. DO not
be surprised if this Fraternity is hand
ed a Jolt from New Orleans"
Arthur A. Irwin. business manager OF
the Toronto international League
club. as we'll versed as any man living
in the conditions Of both minor and
major leagues, had few words TO say
or the subject.
NConditions are serious indeed in the
minor leagues" said Irwin: OUTSIDE
OF Toronto few clubs in the lnterns-
tional League made money. That is pc
cause of the overhead expenses. 1t is
impossible now 20 operate the large
minor league clubs on economical lines.
The recent baseball war turned play
ers' heads as to individual values.

Certain Of the scribes in Boston
have fired a broadside into Ban John
son for his remarks on the sale OF
the worlds champion Red Sox 70
Harry Frazee and Hugh Ward, the
atrical promoters, of New York. Ban
is called TO task for the mere an
nouncement that the sale must be ratl-
fed by the club owners of his circuit
before il can be officially recognized.
This is no reflection whatever upon
the worth of Messrs. Frazee and Ward.
On the other hand, it is in strict keep
ing with the league constitution. NO
more is asked of Messrs. Frazee and
Ward than was asked of Mr.. Lannin
when he purchased the club from
Messrs. McAleer, Mercy and Taylor.
Colonel Rupert and Captain Huston,
two Of the most progressive magnates
of the game, had to submit to the
formality, too. g.,
Messrs. Frazee and Ward frankly
confess their pleasure in the prospec-
tive association with league partlc-
ular in its membership. Their ledger
is open to inspection. But IN the
meantime the pen pushers Of Boston,
through their ardent championing OF
the new owners, do not appear TO be
treating Ban johnson quite fairly. Ban
has not said, nor has he intimated,
anything at all derogatory to the, men
who did business with Joseph j.
Lannin.
Indeed, 1t was learned yesterday
that in an official letter to Lannin the
big boss of the American League prac-
tically indorsed the sale. johnson
wrote his regret at Lannin's with
drawal from American League affairs
and wished him continuous success IN
his business career.

Deputy United States Marchal Thorn

Every report coming down from the

grain yield this year promises to sur
pass that of all previous years. A few
weeks OF warm weather Is all that is
needed to ripen the crop. II an early

+. S. Harris, of LOOMS, has bonded
the Caaba mine, located near Night

that one of the considerations of the
contract Is the installation of a mill at
once. There is no partly developed
mining property in this locality that
presents better showing than the
Caaba. very large ledge has been
opened to considerable depth, and the
entire ledge is solid ore The grade is
not high, but the quantity is such that
1t will pay the operators handsomely
when properly worked and put through
the right treatment. Those familiar
with the claim have always felt that
the Caaba was one of the very best
prospects on the border, and it will
surprise no one acquainted with the
property if the new company makes a
big success working 1t.

We hear OF some startling statistics about

In damp weather We can fairly see the

YOUR WEDDING DAY
And the Famous Men and Women
Who Have Shared Ii.
August 9-Charles II Of Spain and
Marie Anne of Neuberg.
George Westinghouse and Margaret
Walker.
By MARN NIAKsHALL.

If ever a bridegroom went 10 the
altar devoid Of enthusiasm or passion
II was Charles IL " Spain who was
married two hundred and eighteen
Years ago. Although he was only twenty
oIght. he Was Wcary-weary OF being king
weary Of wives and women in general
weary of court life and actually
uneasy lies the head that wears the
crown ever applies. it applies in the
case of Charles II Of Spain.
Yet this king who had no desire
to marry had been a widower only
three months when h was led 10
marry 4 second time. How gladly
would he have welcomed the two
years that are sometimes put as the
minimum period of widowerhood
Not only was Charles II unwilling to
take to himself second wife, but the
prospect of having a second wife's
retinue bored him to extinction. He
disllked people They worried him
and made him uncomfortable.
After eleven years OF life with
Louisa OF Orleans. his first wife, he
had become fairly used TO her set OF
retainers. To he sure. they were un
pleasant to have about but their
faces were familiar. With the death
of Louisa. they were rather unCere-
q
aces Now he would have to learn an
.entirely new set Of faces and names
A more vigorous king might have
welcomed the idea of a new bevy of
pretty girls as his wife's personal at
tendants. Charles II MAS not OF this
type.
After the death Of his first wife, it be-
came imperative to think of a second
and the choice-since Charles himself
ha not tor -KKssa
left 10 Emperor Leopold l who decided
on Marie Anne of Neu6erg, his sister-in-
law. accd twenty-twO-tall, angular, am
btious hard and passionate 1t was
late at night in the quaint Bavarian town
of Neubcrg that the ceremony took place
between Marie Anne and the young king
of Hungary, her nephew, who acted as
proxy Tie Jesuit church was thronged
with the nobility of Neuberg, amba ssa
doris from Spain, and the court OF Leo
poId, when Marie Anne stepped deliber-
ately up 10 the altar 10 become the wife
of the weakling whom she had never
even seen. Charles lis first wife had
been a French princess. This marriage
with a German meant seven years OF
war between Spain and France. In truth,
little peace resulted from the union.
Travelling WAS slow in the days Of
Marie Anne and Charles II, but the jour
ney Of this bride to her husband seems
to have been needlessly prolonged. for II
was not until late in the following jan
uary that she finally set sail in an Eng
lish feet for spain, ard not until April
that she first saw her husband.
That Marie Anne was hard and queru-
lous made mere difference to Charles lis
subjects than it did TO himself. The
most lovely and gentle of women could
not have won his affection. Even when
clad in the native Spanish dress which
greatly became her. the new queen failed
to win popularity. In Spain, where an
amiable manner is so highly priced, she
fisunted her bad temper. When the
mobiles knelt before her on state occa-
sions she barely recognized the mark of
respect and never, never smiled. 1t may

u W Nccp my uldly up
every day and write two ar
ticles on Saturday, but l must con-
Tess that not for one-half second
did | think of my duty to my pcnl
AT 9:45 Saturday morning, We ar
rived at the station in Chicago ard
such an exciting moment as it was
for us all! The president OF the
Famous Players had sent some
beautiful boxes of flowers to the
train. so l felt very important as |
strutted down the steps with a large
bouquet OF orchids pinned on the
chest of me.
We did not know there had been
any announcement Of our arrival. so
we were astonished when a merry
crowd OF people was at the station
to give US a rousing greeting.
l was presented with a great arm
full OF American Beauties sent by
the Paramount exhibitors, but the
most touching tribute received
was a little bunch of faded roses
that a tiny, pale-faced girl brought
ME. She had fought her way through
the crowd, determined that | should
wear these flowers, which she told
me she had grown in tin cans out
side her window.
Mother and l were whisked into a
machine and driven through the
streets on our way to the hotel.
And truly the city looked like a
gala fete day with its banners and
flags to welcome the visitors to the
convention.
Mother. leaning out of the lin
CUISINE window, caught sight OF a
cunning little brown-faced boy about
fourteen years old who had followed
US, running all the way from the
station. Three or four boys had set
out, but as the machine whirled
around corners, speeding US onward,
they had all dropped out but this
sturdy little fellow, whose jaw was
set and who had made up his mind
to pay US this homage
For several blocks we watched
him until we could stand it no long
er-then we called him into the ma
chine to ride the rest of the way to
the Blackstone Hotel.
I've seen you on the screen, Miss
Piekford," he apologizcd between
gaspIng breaths as he mopped his
face, and l wagered those fellers
I'd speak the first word to you that
any kid spoke in Chicago, and
he chucklcd a moment merrily-"I
beat 'em to it, didn't Il"
The automobile drew up for a mo-
ment at one OF the street corners
until the traffic passed; then a very
somber-eyed young gentleman walk
ed swiftly to the car and passed me
his card.
1--WE seen you in many pictures,
Miss Pickford," he whispered hur-
riedly, "and I've never liked you in
any of them. Here's my card, and
if you will take the trouble to write
me, will tell you what is all wrong
with your acting"
Pm very much obliged for your
criticism and thank you kindly"
smiling as | said it and handing him
one OF the flowers from my bou-
quet.
Thanks" he replied curtly. "if
my wife doesn't find out who gave
it to me. She would never tolerate
the idea that l accepted any favor
from any woman connected with the
stage" And with a formal and very
sour bow, the grim Mr.. Henry Peck
disappeared into the crowd.
Riding up the Boulevard to the
