Gasoline Feed System

In keeping with the demand for better
streanline design, horizontal body lines,
greater gasoline capacity and to insure
positive and even flow of gasoline to the
carburetor, 55c Of automobile manufacturers
have adopted vacuum gasoline feed. The
division is as follows:
Vacuum Feed ..........5 $50
Gravity Feed .........3 44GG
Pressure Feed 1867
The average price Of al Fours using va
cuun feed system is $3.50; of all Skies using
it, the average price is S1628 yet we find it

success is shown in the large ball park
known as Academy Park, which is one
Of the finest and fastest grounds in the
State.
It was Mr.. Stevens who first saw the
possibility of putting a winning ball
team on the field to represent Middle
town. Several ball players living in the
town were spoken to and all consented
to aid the great general in organizing a
team. a board OF directors and officers
were elected and the team was under
way But from the very first it was
seen the team would not be success
unless a pitcher could be found Then
Manager Stevens did his part. It was
this great managers keen eve and great
judgment of ability that first saw the
possibility Of developing George Lefty
Finn into the greatest southpaw twirler
that has ever worn the spiked shoes on
a diamond here. II was this great man
ager who first realized that Dial Culver,
the Sussex county southpaw, had in
him the making Of a great star and an
other great pitcher. II was this great
manager who first saw that several new
men, who had never made a record be-
fore, could be developed into fast men;
as fast as many others IN Delaware. Al
though several mistakes we're made at
first, Mr.. Ste' Is profted by them and
did not make the same mistake twice.
Up to the present time he has won
10 games and lost this season, a very
good record. The cause Of resignation il
not made public. but it is thought he
was given a mean deal by several Mid
dletown fans, following the defeat by
Odessa on Wednesday in a l4-inning
game. Mr.. Stevens has always played
fair, giving everyone a square deal and
the fact that the fans of his own town
should turn against him was more than
he could stand.
In losing him the team will lose a
manager who let nothing stand in the
way of putting a winning combination
on the field, and his loss viii be greatly
felt.

MIDDLETOWN HIT HARD

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
MIDDLETOWN, Del, Aug. The
Middletown Athletic Association base
ball team has struck a snsg. After sail.
ing through the first half of the season
as smoothly as any team in Delaware,
the team is now up against IT, II is
almost certain that all of the remaining
games on the schedule will have to be
cancelled and the club disbanded because
of this one piece Of hard luck. The local
fans are dishesrtened because they have
been struck a severe blow--a blow that
no fan even gave thought TO until
after the victory over Wilmington A.
c. on Saturday. And the blow--Manager
Daniel w. Stevens has rendered his res
ignation TO the directors of the club, the
resignation to take effect at once.
Mr.. Stevens is without a doubt the
best manager that has ever lead a base.
ball nine on a diamond in this town.
Few managers in the State have any
thing on him for leadership. wit and
ability to Judge a man. Indeed with a
pleasant personality and all traits of
leadership, it has been a hobby with
this great manager to take a man from
the High School team and convert him
into one Of the best players ON the regu-
lar team. All that the 1916 baseball
team is, all that it was last year. and
all that it may expect to be during the
rest of the season, the directors of the
association owe to Manager Stevens. d.
II is almost impossible TO see how
Mr. Stevens could take the raw material
that he had last year and develop it into
one of the fastest clubs that is now
playing hall on the Delmarvia Peninsula.
His brilliant success with the club reads
like a story book. but it is, nevertheless,
true Always containing a number of

GOLD SHIPMENTS
MADE TO HOLLAND
Millions Sent by International
Banking Corporation.

Through the withdrawal Of $1,000, 900
In gold from the Sub-Tressury yester-
day by the international Banking Cor
poration for export TO Holland X be-
came known that between $1,000, 900 and
ss,o0o.0oo In gold had been sent from
here to Holland since the latter part Of
1918.
In view Of the premium on guilders
Of about per cent, there Ia nothing
abnormal about the transactions from
an exchange point OF view. What raised
great deal OF conjecture In Wall
Street yesterday, however, was how this
one banking company had been able 10
send gold into Holland when shipments
by other banking concerns have been
held up by the British government. The
only theory that seemed 20 account for
10 was that the international company
had some working arrangement with
the British government and the Neither
lands Overseas Trust, supported by an
agreement that the gold would not be
allowed 10 find its way out Of Holland
into Germany.
The Netherlands Overseas Trust is a
creation OF war times, whose purpose
Is 20 facilitate the movements OF goods
and securities into and out of Holland
without interfering with the Allies en-
deavors 70 prevent Germany from ben
efting from international trade. II has
pledged itself 70 Great Britain that no
Imports that come under its supervision
shall go beyond its borders.
Control OF the international Banking
Corporation. which has branches all
over the world. was secured by the VA
tional City Bank last year. The City
Bank has participated in financial
transactions with the Allies, and be-
cause Of this fact It is believed that it
has influence enough with the British
government TO get gold into Holland
where other American bankers have
failed.
There was deposited in the Assay
Office yesterday 81 100000 in gold coin,
which was understood 70 have been
brought in on the St. Paul from Lon
don. or this amount $1,000 900 was con-
signed to the National Bank OF Cuba,
