The amateur Hockey League clubs ire having a little a Of their
own. 80 much bitter feeling "a been aroused that tho chances ar that
n NOR games will be played and the league disbanded. The trouble
started with what the Irish American A. C. claims unjust and discrim-
nate barring of their stars. The Winged Ftstites retanated vita y vol
ley of protests last night a.. the game scheduled at the rink between
their team and the Crescents which would have broken the te To- the
League leadership The Irish protested four Crescent players. George
Iialock, president OF tho league and manager Of the Crescents. became
SO angsred that he asked permission to withdraw from the league. The
Irish took the game by default
The hockey fight eliminated last night when tho Governing Commit
tee refused to ALLOW Wellington Of the Irish American team to compete
o n the ground that last ycar he had played with the Pittsburgh team,
and that 10 player who played with o against the Pittsburgh team a
eligible a a amateur. This action a. taken despite the fact that last
week the Boston Arena team a member of the Amateur Hockey League.
played two games in Pittsburgh against the same Pittsburgh team The
Irish American Club felt that the same stringent ruNs that havo been
applied to it's players should he applied to all clubs IN the league.
The irsh-Americans protested Mccarthy. Roach. Ds Jardins and
Mitchell OF the Crescent team oil the ground that they receive money
for playing: IT protested the Boston Arena team for playing an exhibit

THE lead OF tho National League
In openly declaring war on

IN openly declaring war on
David fultz and the Baseball
Players Fraternity created quite a
sensation in big league circles last
night when It was announced. but we
are siIll AZ a loss to understand Ia
reason. Gov. Tener and other
National League club an
nounced that such was TO be their
course more than "a month ago.. II
nay be that many OF the more ex-
perlenced followers Of the pastime
did not believe they had the nerve.
The surprising feature to the wind
up Of the afternoon session. though.
was the unexpected activity Of John
McGraw In trying ~ have a talk with
r'uitz. looking toward a peaceful adj
Justment Of the differences. Nc
Graw admits that he thought 1t q
good time to Get things In shape,
out while he was gone for a talk
with the President Of the Fraternity
the National League repudiated the
Players organization for once and
for all. And McGraw has u Just kick
coming.
There was considerable talk to the
effect that Ban Johnson, fearing a
backdown by the National League,
had telephoned from Chicago saying
that II the Fraternity was recognized
the American League would sever re-
lations and renew the war Of ten
years age. This rumor was not
credited by old baseball men and 1t
attended the meeting. The gossip
persisted. nevertheless.
So much attention was given TO
the strike, supposed to be dead and
buried, that Nr. Tener's magnates
did nothing in the way OF shaving
The players limit down TO eighteen
men as had been expected. That may
be done to-day.
In the meantime another sensation
has broken loose In the assertion OF
many star players. such as Sherwood
Magee and DICK Rudolph. that they
are ready to swear off from fult2
and are quite willing to name another
man to represent the Fraternity. This
declaration was made TO Garry Herr
mann. Chairman OF the NationaI
Commission.
''In our opinion F'ultz is merely try
Ing to earn the salary that he gets
at SIS apiece from the players" they
said, 'snd We are done. You JUS
suggest a good man. Garry, and wei
elect him."
The fact that the National League
has severed relations with the Fra
ternity would Indicate that they in
tend to lessen the number of players
on each club. In other words, the,
feel able TO do without the men wh'
are holding out on their contracts
under orders from the Fraternity.
Over the grapevine that extended
from the secret meeting TO the caf'
downstairs there came n sizzling re-
port late yesterday afternoon to th'
effect hat the Philadelphia Nationa
League Club Is up In arms agains

GRAIN AND PRODUCE
Peace Rumors Make Visible
Effect on Grain Market ALI
Along the Line.
CORN is EXTREMELY DULL

Omaha, May 2. 1917.
The local cash grain situation was very
quiet today anc there was n general de-
cline in prices, Spot wheat ruled around
30 to &c lower. Corn was quoted from ~ C
to &c lower. Oats sold generally at a de-
cline OF &c 20 1c. Rye was lc to &c lower,
and barley was quoted unchanged.
The demand for wheat was not over
active, but receipts OF this cereal were very
ll-ht and most OF the offerings were re-
ported sold.
Corn was extremely dull and out OF a
total OF nfty-cight cars received, only about
one-half Of this amount was disposed OF.
The usual demand for white corn was
not very much In evidence, and most Of the
sales were made OF the No. and No, 3
grades of tho yellow and mixed varieties.
The better grades of yellow corn sold
generally at $i.i9h to $3.50, while smixed
corn around $i.49 to sl49h, with the ex-
ception Of one car of near white mixed
corn, which sold at $1,50h.
The trade In oats was SLOW IN starttns
but there was a pretty fair demand for
this cereal shortly before the close.
Sales OF oats however, were rather light,
few of the cars of No. white selling
around 7Oc while most Of the No. white
samples went at soc and 89hc. n
Rye and barley were quiet on account or
light offerings, but there was pretty fair
demand for both of these cereals.
Clearances were. Wheat and flour equal
to s44, 900 bushels; corn, 100000 bushels.
Primary wheat receipts were 10000 BUSH
els and shipments I,3s9,oo0 bushels. against
receipts OF $4,000 bushels and shipments Of
1,ls5.000 bushels last year.
Primary corn receipts were 8l2,o0s bush
els and shipments $4,000 bushels, against
receipts OF 90, 900 bushels and shipments of
76s, 900 bushels last year.
Primary oats receipts were 10000 BUSH
els and shipments i,0Oi,OO bushels. against
receipts Of 1.i32,000 bushels and shipments
OF 3i5 600 bushels lats year
