I.IARSANS TO WEAR
new YORK UNIFORM
Former Local Star Is Snapped
for Lee Magee ~.

Cleveland, Ohio, July 16.-The trade
Of Lee Magee to the Browns for Out
fielder Armando Marsans, which has
teen hanging fire since the Yankees
arrived in st. Louis on July 7 has been
Completed. President Ban johnson of
H. American League has been con-
.NStiAg the negotiations and last night
lie wired Col. Jacob Rupert here with
the Yanks, that the ST Louis club had
agreed to the terms of the transfer.
= Under the agreement the owners of
the Yankees will pay the difference in
money called for by the two con-
tracts. Marsans is working under a
contract calling for $4,000 a season.
ard Magee is serving the last year of
the contract he signed with the Brook
lyn Federals in the winter of 1914-15.
He has been drawing 1888 a season
on this contract, and the owners of the
Yanks will pay the Browns $4,333 be-
sides assuming the obligations with
Marsans.
Magee was ordered to report to the
Browns and Donovan wired Marsans
to Yoin the Yankees as soon as pos
sible. With High and Gilhooley on
the injured list the Cuban will be
used for the time being as a regular
outfielder.
4 Magee has been a big disappoint-
ment since. he came to the New York
club. Ruppert and Huston, besides
assuming his big contract, paid $22,-
500 for his release. Marsans, still
rassd as one of the best outfielders in
the game, has not done we'll this sea-
son with the stick, but Donovan fig
ures that he will be more valuable
than Magee and that change in
scene will improve both. Marsans
pnce starred with the Reds, then
Jumped to the Federal League and af-
ter the peace settlement Joined the
Browns. He was one of Jones regu-
lar outfielders last season.
Magee is a favorite in ST Louis,
where he played with the Cardinals
before he jumped to the Brooklyn
Feds.

Serious differences appear to have

the then premier, Stephanos Skou-
loudis.
M. Venizelos demands that the
king openly cease to carry out his IA
Tiers internal and external policies,
but the king is postponing action or
has refused to give his approval to
such categorical regulations.
The situation in Greece has been
complicated by AleXander's unexpect-
ed stubbornness and his failure to cut
loose from the policies of his father.
Constantine has hardly reached his
refuge in Switzerland before Alex
ander startled his allied sponsors by
announcing that he intended to pur-
sue the former kings program. This
he has been prevented from doing by
the presence Of Venizelos in Athens.
Senator Jonnart, who arranged the
coup de'etat, however, has returned
to Paris for further instructions,
which will probably depend somewhat
upon Russia's protest against the al
lied interference in the internal af-
fairs of Greece. Meanwhile the en-

CHICAGOAN SAYS MAYOR
WILL SERVE OUT TERM

Chicago must wait for the next
snayoralty election TO rid itself Of
Mayor william Hale Thompson.
whose pro-Germanism has made him
q target Of criticism throughout the
country, according TO a statement TO-
day by Walter V. Rene, Chicago bus
iness man.
'I believe Carter H. Harrison will
be the next mayor" he said. "but
whoever is elected, he will be a 100
per cent American. and Chicago will
vindicate itself before the country.
THE strange thing about the Chi
eago situation is that Thompson. in
the last election defeated County
Clerk Sweitzer on the clean-cut issue
of Sweitzeris German ancestry. My
idea is that Thompson wants to be
different from other people. II
seems to amount to a fetish with the
man II Chicago were a German
city, he'd probably be pro-ally."
