according to baseball law, the Information
al League also snrrcnders its territory.
These matters will be taken up iminedi..
ately by the National Association, and
il there Il any delay or complications about
the matter, the National Commission will
step in and adjust conditions.
There was more or less discussion yes
tcrdnv that an effort would bo made to
rcorganize tho lcaguo under o new name
and under lower classification. II this
reorganization is to be tried none of the
club owners of the late departed league
care to say anything about IL. BY combin-
ing few of the International League
cities. some Of the New York State cities
and perhaps ono or two Eastern League
,litics, such circuit might be organized.
but from present uncertain indications,
ptlch q league seems very unlikely.

medical department of the Army, Mr..
Ferris said only IA per cent Of the
men wounded in action are discharged
as unfit for further military service,
and that only per cent of those
wounded in action die Of their
wounds.
In the seventeen months which the
