LEAGUE unable
TO AGREE UPON
1918 SCHEDULE
Directors of Both American
and National Organization
Fail to Reach Amy Agree
ment as to Numb er of
Games.
AN Review leased Wirel

NEW YORK, Dec 12.-Compared
with the excitement attending the Ma
tional league, meeting here yesterday,
when the reelection OF President
Tener on his own terms and the sale
of Philadelphias star battery. Alex
ander and Killifer," to Chicago, were
the main features, today's session OF
the magnates was without incident.
The length of next seasons playing
schedule and the possible reduction OF
the player limit were informally dis
cussed but no action was taken. Both
were unanimously deferred until the
National league representatives can
get to Chicago where they will con-
fer with the American league club
owners Friday or Saturday.
The constitution was. amended sc
that there cannot be dispute in fu-
ture. which was claimed in the recent
McGraw case, as to there being no
appeal to the board of directors from
the findings of the league president
in imposing a heavy fine for scandal
Gus conduct on or off the field. An
appeal may be taken, however, if a
player be suspended for a period of
more than ten days.
The league win set aside one day at
each ball park during the season on
which 25 per cent of the gate receipts
will be donated TO Clark Griffith bat
and ball fund. which provided $780,
worth of baseball paraphernalia to en-
listed men during the last six months.
1t is. estimated that 100000 each year
will suffice for this purpose
During the meeting President Chas.
H. -Ebbetts of the Brooklyn club. re-
celved a telegram from Pitcher Ed
ward Pfeffer stating that he had en-
listed for army service and would re-
port for duty January 1st. Ebbetts
Immediately forwarded a repIy con-
graduating Pfeffer upon his action
and wishing him success in the serv-
ice.

Boundary County
Idaho

is the extreme northern county of
Idaho. It's principal resources are ag-
riculture, dairying and stock raising,
mining, timber. The county includes
a large portion of the Kootenai Val
ley, the most fertile district of the
world. Cutover lands may be pur-
chased on long time contracts at from
$40 to $25 per acre. Bottom and mead
ow lands sell for from SO to $50 per
acre. There are many hundreds of
acres of agricultural land in Boundary
county which will make fine homes for
the energetic farmer. Millions of feet
of timber remain uncut and the rivers
and creeks may be easily harnessed to
give thousands of horsepower. Raw
material in quantities to last 100 years,
for paper pulp, may be found in the
county and this timber is easy Of ac-
cess. The mining industry is yet in
it's infancy. Sufficient capital would
put only one of a dozen mines on a
dividend-paying basis. The climate is
ideal, the rainfall all that is needed
No irrigation in this district. Good
roads. good schools. Plenty of trans
portation facilities.

NOTE FROM GERMANY
Message to Neutrals Concerns Reply OF
Allies on Peace Offer.

Berlin, Jan. 11.-Germany today
handed neutral government a note
concerning the reply of the entente to
the German peace proposals, the
Overseas News Agency announces.
1t is stated, says the news agency
that the German gov
eminent has received the reply of the
entente to the note of December II
containing a proposition to enter at
once into peace negotiations The
note continues:
"Our adversaries declined this prop
osition, giving as the reason that it is
proposition without sincerity and
without importance The form in
which they clothe their communica-
ton excludes an answer to them, but
the imperial government considers it
important to point out to the govern
7ments of neutral powers its opinion
regarding the situation.
1.-The central powers have no reason
to enter into any discussion regarding
the origin of the war. History will
Judge upon whom the immense guilt
of the war shall fall. History's YER
dict will as little pass over the encir-
cling policy of England. the revenge
full policy of France and the endeavor
of Russia to gain Constantinople as
soxer the instigation of the Serbian as
sassination in Sarayevo and the COM

Return to Shell Wrecked Homes.
With the issuance of orders for the
people of Kingsland to leave their
homes, the police were instructed to
shoot down possible looters who re-
fused to surrender upon command.
About fifty arrests were made. Most
of those taken into custody, however,
were merely suspects and were re-
leased today.
Permits were also issued today for
the inhabitants of Kingsland to re-
turn to their she'll wrecked homes.
Only four houses in the town were
destroyed by fire. but none escaped
the Smelling which came from the
plant.
Scores of employees who were in the
plant when the fire started were still
being placed in hospitals today. They
We're suffering mostly from exposure.
In the wild panic which followed the
first burst of flames, and the first ex-

windows of the plant. They fell into

built. After struggling in the icy wa
tiers, they then fled across the frozen
marshes. Barbed wire fences sur
