Plan New American Trade Route.

Attention has recently been paid in
the French press to proposed new
American trade route into the heart of
Europe through France, according to
Uncle Sans consul general at Paris.
It is claimed that Nantes would serve
America better than Antwerp or Rot
terdam because ships in that manner
would enjoy considerably shorter
haul and, furthermore, avoid the trOu-
blesome channel and North sea, which
disproportionately increase the cost of
navigation and insurance. The scheme
consists in providing a modern canal
from Nantes (France) to Basel
(Switzerland) which project is consid-
cred relatively easy of consummation
in view Of the already existing system
of waterways, especially the Rhone-
Rhine canal, the Loire canal, and the
Canal d.: Centre, At Basel the pro-
posed trade route you'd connect with
the Rhine and it's system of depend
encies which perhaps soon will Include.

New York, Oct. q While the
winning Of a pcnnant and the re-
Observation-Disclosures in the World
Series is based upon the number
of games won during the entire
season of league play it is as a
rule the final weeks of the sched-
ule in which the championships
are clinchcd. AT this period of
the play the leading teams Of each
league are putting forth their
greatest efforts in an attempt to
capture first place and each day s
struggle is fought out to the fin
ish. For this reason it has fire.
quently been said that the true
speed of a team in World Series
can be gagged from the power of
it's play near the point where the
pcnnant was automatically won.
Based upon this assumption an
analysis of the work of the Chi
cago Americans and the New
York Nationals in the closing
weeks of the present season
should afford a somewhat general
outline Of the form which may be
expected of these two clubs when
they meet in the World Series of
1917. On the first day Of Scptcm-
Der the Chicago White Sox were
leading in the American League
| by + - games over the Boston
Red Sox while the New York Ma
tionals led the Phil|icS in the sen.
ior league by Q games.
In neither case was the lead SO
great that the rlnncr-up club dld
not have d chance to ovcrtakr and
pass the pace settlers. Under the
circumstances the New York and
Chicago teams were forced to play
their best game and despite an oc-
casionaI defeat the records show
that they travelled at high speed
up to the very moment that the
flag was won beyond preadven-
turc.
During the first twenty days of
September the New York Nation
ais played twcnty-thrcc games OF
which they won sixteen and lost
seven. showing a winning average
of sos for that period. In the
same number of days the Chicago
White Sox played fifteen games
Of which they won all but three
for an average Of 500. In these
fifteen games the Chicago players
accumulated y total Of eighty-tWo
runs to their opponents flfty-
four or an average Of close to five
and half runs per game. Thc
Giants aggregated eighty runs in
twcntv-thrcc games for an aver,
ace of three and'a half runs per
contest while their opponents col
lected fifty-six. If the opposing
strength were equal in all games
which was not the case however
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1917-10-02

it might be assumed that the
White SoX attack was stronger
than that Of the Giants while the
latter's defense was harder to
break through. The fact that
these clubs did not. of course, face
the same opponents must not be
overlooked.
Much stress has been laid upon
the respective ability of the pitch
ers of the clubs and the part that
these twirlers will play in the win
ming of the World Series. For
this reason a comparison Of their
box records during the period I'M
der consideration may be helpful
to the followers of the game. The
Giants have used SalIcc, Pcrritt,
Schupp, Tcsreau and Benton for
an average Of 81 3-5 innings each
in the twenty day period while
Drmarce and Anderson have
worked an average of II - each.
For the White SoN CicOttce,
Williams and Fabcr have borne
the brunt of the pitching. having
averaged forty innings. Dam
