NfilEF BENDER has delivered his
~ final ultimatum TO tho Phllies. He
has left the team fiat and says lie VIII
not don the uniform this year because
his terms wero not accepted by Fresl-
dent Baker
Late last night a telegram containing
three short but convincing words was
received by Pat Moran. The words were
arranged as follows:
EVERYTHING is OFF"
This marked the end of a week Of nc
gotiationo between the veteran hurler
and Manager Moran. When the chief
turned down his first contract, Pat de-
cided that something must be done at
once He held daily conferences with
President Baker and price was agreed
upon. 1t was much better than that
of last year and quite liberal when one
considers the uncertainty OF tho season
because Of the war.
Moran's Terms Refused
Moran wired the final terms to Bender
explaining that he had dono all lie could
and asked that he sign at once, because
the offer was fair one. Bender then
sent his terse reply,

COUNTRY LOOKS 1O WILSON FOR
 I1S GUIDANCE
Declares Secretary Lane; No Time to Swap Horses
 In Midstream.

Washington, Oct. 3O.-Secretaly Lane and Redfield today authorized statements of whp they believed the country should return q Democratic congress next week.
 Secretary Lane said:
 "A the head of our state is the man whom the world looks to for gni- dance in this contest.
 ''lo back him to the limit and en- able him to look the kaiser in the eve and tell him what the conscience of the world commands is our duty i1res- pective of party.
 "He must not be discredited, weak ened or worried by any aparent hesi- tatlon on the part of the people to generously support him. The kaiser knows that he is q democrat and those who have been loyal to him as the exponent of the nations will should be sent to congress that they may prosecute the war and lead in the ."feat period of reconstruction that is to follow---a period in which larger consideration must be given to the needs and rights of those who suffer the handicap of poverty or ignorance than ever before.
 The Democratic party should and must take the lead in the evolution of more intensely socialized life. It has the right sympathies and it has. the sympathetic and balanced leadership
 Secretary Redfield said:
 Ordinary common sense shows that the interest of the country re- qulres that the election of a con- gress (both houses) in political sym pathv with the administration.
 "One does not swap horses while crossing the stream save in an emer- gency.
 No emergency calling for the swap exists.

 Let it be admitted, for the sake of argument, that he has officially pull ed fairly straight much, perhaps most of the time thus far.
 "There are executions and often q visible tendency to kick over the traces H + 4.
 Under our party system it is nor maj that the Republicans should seek in advance basis on which to found their campaign of 1920.
 "Such basis they hope to find, they can only. find, by pecking at the administration now and then.
 ss1t is certain, therefore that the election of Republican congress now must substitute underlying if not avowed discord for acknowledged and avowed sympathy and opens the way to national embarrassment through the temptations to political gains"
