SPORTING NOTES

The White Sox at present have a lead
of eight games over the Red SoX ana
five wins in the remaining il games VIII
mathematically clinch the pennant even
if Boston wins all of the remaining 10
encounters Three wins for Chicago and
two losses for Boston will also settle the
contest.
1t is likely that Sam Crawford will
close his active connection with baseball
at the end of the present season. Craw-
ford has been with the Tigers for 10
years and in the majors for 10 years.
His grand batting average for the ID
wears is $40 and in ii out of the 10 sea
sons he has hit for over 300 He got
his first baseball experience with the
Cincinnati Reds in 1899 and has been
with the Tigers since 1902.
Franklin Baker, the Yankee recently
suspended by President Rupert, said
Yesterday that he had been unjustly
treated by the management of the New
York Americans and that his baseball flu
ture remained entirely in the hands of
President Rupert, as he would retire
from baseball if the suspension was not
lifted in few days. Baker claims that
in his agreement with the Yankee man
agement he exaeted a promise from
President Rupert of not being compelled
to play in exhibition games, and so has
not broken an agreement to appear in
the exhibition game in Bridgeport, Conn,
last Sunday.
Boston is assured of having several
football games between the big colleges
for attractions this fall. Dartmouth n d
Pennsylvania will play their annual
game on the Braves field Nov. 10, while
the Brown Dartmouth game will be
played there Nov. "a.
Baseball of by gone days was recalled
recently at the home of Freeman Young
in Arlington, Mass, when the members
of the Junior Baseball Players of Mas
sachusetts association of 1873, 1874, 1875,
held their outing there. The baseball
stars of those days brought forth their
baseballs, etc, and made things lively,
although they had to resort to their old
time baseball field, the street

POPE GIVES UP
PEACE WORK
Vatican Sees War Must Be
Fought to the
End
POPE BELIEVES WAR
MUST GO ON TO END
Believes 1t Will Continue
Two or Three Years
Longer

Washington, Sept. s0.-Pope Benedict
has made his last peace proffer, accord
ing TO official cables received here yes
terday. The Holy See believes the wal
must 90 on at least two or three years
more--until the full effect of America :
vast power has been felt and either a
victory or a hopeless deadlock in the
great struggle reached
The press was informed on the highest
authority that the Vatican realizes peace
or further negotiations at present are
impossible PresideSt Wilson's rejection
of the pope's last peace offer--which re-
lection was heartily approved by the al
lies-has convinced the Vatican the allies
want no peace which will leave the cen.
trail powers under their present rulers,
No peace is possible which is based on
mutual concessions as suggested by the
pope
1t is believed by the Vatican that the
allies, with Americas vast resources
thrown into the balance, now have the
upper hand and can wiring from the cen
tral powers peace acceptable 70 the
democracies Any further protfers from
the pope would be foredoomed to failure
even as the last vast is admitted
Official cables yesterday stated that
Vatican circles throw out the suggestion
of an understanding, at least between
England and Italy, that no peace pro
posals emanating from the Vatican shall
be seriously considered and that when
peace negotiations begin the church is
not to be admitted into the parleys.
These hints go so far as to say that
1taly's entrance into the war hinged on
the acceptance of this condition two
years ago. II is added that this has
never been denied by the allied powers.
Germany, however, is expected to ini-
tiate another peace move before winter,
The basis of this is seen in vague out
lines of terms set afoat first in Wash
ington three weeks ago and now seeping
through the Berlin censor. These APP
pear to be "feelers,' both for the benefit
of the allies and the German people
They have been so confused and in so
many cases launched only TO be denied
by the German foreign office when found
unacceptable, that no attention is now
paid them.
Diplomats here who are in intimate
touch with the international situation
say there is positive knowledge that Ger
many will move again to end the war
before 1918.

WANTS TO SAVE HIS HEAD
Villa Requests Amnesty Of the Mexican
Government.

chihuahua Cyy, Mexico, Sept. 20
Francisco Villa believes he is entitled to
honors from the government as the man
who did most to put down the Huerta
regime in Mexico, according to letter
made public yesterday as having been
written by Villa to General Francisco
Murgia, in which the former asked guar
antees of amnesty.
Villa complained bitterly because he
and his small band were berg incessant-
ly pursued by government troops after
they ceased military operations.
The letter said Villa considers himself
valuable citizen. Villa and his 30 fol-
lowers were situated between hide and

Destined to Become So, Says DR.. Par

Chicago Sept 20.-In the opinion of
DIR, George B. Parkin, secretary of the
Rhodes scholarship fund and president
of the Royal Colonial institute of Lon
don, the present war is destined to bring
about so close an understanding and
friendship between Great Britain and
the United States that in 10 years the
Fourth of July will be an anachronism.

must not teach your children to dstrust

Stockholm, Sept. 20.-A hint from
Sweden that may have been inspired
says that no one in Stockholm would
he surprised If Secretary Lansing de.
manded Sweden a denial that she con
! sidered her services for Germany in
transmitting messages from Argentina a
parallel TO her services for the United
States in transmitting messages 10 Tur-
key. In one case the German minister
kilograms from Buenos Aires suggested
that merchant ships be sunk without
trace was in German code and Sweden
has insisted that because of this she
was ignorant of the contents of the
message that she forwarded to Berlin.
In the other case the American messages
were open and above board and the con
tents were known to both the Swedish
and Turkish governments The United
States minister to Sweden, Ira Nelson
Morris, has held a series of conferences
with the Swedish foreign Office and il is
not inconceivable that he may have
suggested that Sweden deny that she
considers her service to Germany and the
United States are on the same plans.
biNtIrt hplnluHs run strongly III EWe-
den. One faction considers that the nc
ton of the foreign Office has been ill-ad-
vised and badly excused The radical
newspaper, Dagens Nyheter, expresses
this view. The government organ,
Dageblat, says that the German apology
TO Sweden is insufficient That apology
covered merely the language used by
Count Won Luxburg but did not include
the suggestion that ships be sunk with
out trace. 1t was an apology for the
form alone. Conservative speaker, NJ
Trigger, at a polical meeting on Mon
day night defended Germany as a great
bearing nation and declared that
Sweden would never 60 to war with the
kinsmen across the Baltic. He added
that the notion of the forces of civil- |
zation being on one side and the forces of
barbarism on the other side in this war
was an absurd idea
