by the senate tonight to permit COM
mittee consideration of an amend
ment proposed by Senator La Toilette
to eliminate language excluding per-
sons who advocate or teach destruc-
ton of property. A vote on the pass
age of the bill probably will be reach

Senator La Toilette commended that
there were other sufficient bars
against anarchists and that the pro-
vision to which he objected would
shut the doors of the United States to
worthy men from other lands because
destruction of property had been in
cidental to a revolution in which they
were concerned. Other senators OPP
posed eliminating the provision en-
tirely, and it was decided to send the
amendment to the committee.
Another entire day was devoted to

Considerable Important Business VIII be Transacted Today

League to Provide FOR Care of John B. Day, Forme,
Owner and Founder of New York Club.

New York, Dec 13.--While thexNa-
tional League club owners spent all
most eight hours discussing league
business at their session here today,
Secretary Heydier said tonight that
great deal remained to be done and
the annual meeting may not be- fin
ished until Friday.
President Weeghman Of the Chi
cago club said tonight that he had
made an appointment with president
Hughton Of Boston to talk ever to-
morrow morning the deal for the SER
vices of Fred Mitchell as manager.
Both of them said that SO far neither
had made any propositions to the 9th
er Mitchell but that thay might come
to terms as soon as they under stood
each other. - u
A great part of today's session was
taken up in discussing a proposition
made by President Baker of the Phil
adelphia club. to amend the constitu-
ton so that no player could 5@e re-.

less all the clubs In the league were
asked for waivers. This was to pre-
vent trades Of players which might
strengthen leading clubs in the PEN
nant race, but it was pointed out that
1t might also work against clubs in
the second division which might de-
sire to make trades. The question
was referred to a committee which is
to report back at the schedule meet
ing next February.
The New York club wished to make
1t imperative that no more than two
championship games could be played
on the same day by anya club. As
there is no rule governing the num-
Der of games that might be played in
an emergency. this matter also was

Jewetf City Hurls Defiance at Hard :
dos

Sporting Editor: In The Bulletin of
Monday on the sporting page the
Harddigs claimed the championship of
New London county because they
played the undefeated Jewett City
eleven to a scoreless tie on the fair
grounds. I wish to state that on that
day we had five substitutes in our
lineup, two of whom were in the back
field.
However, we opened our season in
Jewett City with victory over the
Harddigs by a score of IL to 5. Per-
haps they have forgotten this. Also
on the day that we defeated the All
Norwich eleven in Norwich I offered
to play the Harddigs for $40 side
bet. They refused fiat. l repeat this
challenge that if they have any doubt
as to which is the better team we will
play them for marbles or money, pro-
viding the weather Eolds out as good
as it is. Now is their chance for the
championship-if they are really look
ing for it. We guarantee competent
officials who will show no partially.
AS it stands we are indicated
The following is our lineup: Spicer

There was quite lively discussion
over the question whether players
under contract but not actually TAX
ing part in championship games,
should be included in clubs limit

was the signing Of Second Baseman

New York club and 1t was finally set

allowed to each club. as voted on at
yesterdays meeting.
BY unanimous vote the league will
take adequate care of John B. Day,
former owner and one of the found
ers of the New York club, during the
remainder of his life. This veteran
recently suffered from a paralytic
stroke and as it was understood that
he lost almost his entire fortune dur
ing the Brotherhood fight. the club
owners decided that Mr.. Days siren
uous efforts for the welfare of the
game should be recognized and APP
preciated by the National League.
President Ebbets, Dreyfuss and
Secretary Heydler were appointed a
committee to draft suitable resolutions
on the recent death of Former Presi-
dent Secretary N. z. Young.
Several trades and deals were talk
ed of during the day by the managers
and players who crowded the corri-
doris of the hotel. but none of them
was closed.

WARNING AGAINST THE
CONCENTRATION OF GOLD
Issued BY George E. Roberts, Former
Director of u. S. Mint

New York, Dec 13.-Industrial con :
dions III the warning countries will be
no worse, if not better, at the con-
clnsion of the war than" they were
before its outbreak, said George E.
Roberts, former director of the United
States mont and now an officer of the
National City bank, in an address to-
day at luncheon of the Iowa society.
Mr. Roberts sounded note of warning
against the concentration of gold in
this country, saying that surplus Of
It would tend ito isolate" the nation
from the rest of the world.
THE amount of productive property
destroyed in the warning countries is
SMALL" said the speaker. Great
Britain and Germany are practically
untouched and in some important lines
teir capacity as been increased in
stead of diminished
THE loss of life and the disable
ment Of men, particularly of skillet
workers. will undoubtedly impair the
productive capacity of these countries;
but, on the other hand. there are rea-
sons for believing that the war caus-
ed industry to be recognized and put
on more efficient basis.
TT is hard to make the average man
believe that a country can have too
much gold. And yet, gold or capital
Is only one factor in industry. You
cannot use gold without labor and we
are hot getting more labor. The only
way you can put more gold or more
capital into use is by hiring labor
away from one employment to an
other, or by bidding against other buy
ers for materials and property. The
effect is simply - raise wages and the
cost of doing business until larger
amount of money is employed in doing
the same volume of business.
There is great danger, when a
great amount of capital in the form of
gold is suddenly forced from one
country to another without a cores
ponding movement Of population, that
all costs of production will be raised
so far above those in other countries
that when normal conditions are re-
stored that country will find itself iso-
lated from the rest Of the world
