However. il is not expected that
anyone OF the four players mentioned,
johnson, Shaw. Perry or Naylor, will
make such a radical move Certainly
johnson and Shaw are not made of
such clay, as the writer well knows.
Yet the example is before them.
The shift Of Phil Douglass, OF the
Cubs, for Dave Robertson. OF the
Chats, has caused considerable ad-
verse criticism among National
League fans, especially in Cincinnati
and Chicago. This latest trade of
Carl Mays to the Yankees is certain
to bring out stormy words all around
the American League. 1t savors too
much Of syndicate baseball, of put
ting the pennant where it will count
for most.
May Demand New Rule.
When the major leagues hold their
annual meetings next winter. it is
expected that efforts will be made
to adopt rules forbidding all sales
or trades after a certain date. July
Is has been mentioned by the Ma
tional League. 1t will be interesting
TO see what date is named for the
American League. However, that such
. demand is sure 10 be heard goes
without saying.
II is apparent that New York clubs
this year are being strengthened at
the expense Of all the others. The
Giants case has become notorious,
and win certainly bring trouble in
its train Until yesterday, when Mays
was traded to the Yankees, lie Amer
lean League had ben free from such
deals. Connie Mack was quoted on
Monday as refusing to sell Scott Per-
~ to the White Sox because he
didn't believe in strengthening a
winner at this stage OF the game.H
Connie Mack has been in baseball
all his life, advancing from the play
ing end to the owning end. He knows
the evils OF such q deal as that con-
cluded yesterday by the Red Sox and
Yankees, If the Yankees succeed in
winning the 1919 pennant and the
Red SoK remain in their present lowly
position. Boston will have to be
shown. The New England metropolis
viii not stomach such treatment.
Chicago Offered $4,000.
So anxious was Charlie Comiskey
TO obtain Mays for his White Sox he
told Manager Gleason TO offer Harry
FTazee $4,000 in cash. One more
pitcher Of Mays caliber would cinch
the pennant for the White Sox. Man
sger Barrow, Of Boston, declined to
accept merely money for his rebel
lious pitcher. He wanted players,
asking Russell and Thormahlen from
the Yankees. Higgins refused to
consider Thormahlen, but he did
throw in McGraw, a likely young
hurleF, and a third man yet to be
named, probably an outfelder. Ping
Bodie was wanted, but Higgins could
not spare Bodie nor would the player
listen TO a deal taking him from the

Cleveland asked for Mays, and was

URIC ACID IN THE SYSTEM

BY LEE II. SMITH, NJ. D

Uric ncld Is now generally recog.
nized rs the cause Of more diseases
hun was heretofore believed. When
the kidneys are out Of order uric acid
accumulates within the body in super
abundance. The disordered kidneys
do not filter the poisOns out OF the
blood, us they ought to do. and 80 the
polsons remain ir the blood and hoat
around until they find a place to
lodge, in form Of urate salts. The
thing to remember Is that you may
have rheumatism in any part Of the
body-you may have pains anywhere
your back may ache and your head
may be dI1zy-but the trouble IL not
where the pain appears.
The trouble is in the kidneys, and
what il the first thing to do? You mus
get that excess uric acid out of your sys

Tablets, the splendid remedy which Dr.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. has put on sals

Army Officers Trained in
Work to Direct Engineers
az Earliest Possible Date

4 survey of the Susquehanna river
from tidewater to Harrisburg. in or
der TO determine the navigability of
the river, now is receiving the atten-
lion OF Col. J. j. Loving, of the reg
ular army. who is in charge of the
United States engineer office, 500
customs House, Baltimore. Two
Pennsylvania Congressman, W. w.
Griest, of Lancaster. who introduc-
ed the bill to authorize the survey
which Congress subsequently adopt
ed, and 4. S. Kreider, OF the Harris
burg district, who has given the mat
ter considerable attention. We're in
consultation with Coonel Loving.
Previously they had an audience
with Major General Black and Brig
adler General Taylor, of the en-
gineering bureau OF the War Depart
nent at Washington, and by direction
OF Major General Black, the conduct
OF the survy was placed in the hands
of Colonel Loving. in whose district
the Susquehann2 river is located.
The Pennsylvania congressman
urged that the program for the sur
Ney be determined expeditiously.
Colonel Loving assured the Congress-
men that in view of the fact that
Congress had authorized the survey
and the money had been appropriat-
ed. that the work would be proceed
ed with at the earliest practicable
date.
The Congressmen promised to fur
nish Colonel Loving without delay Il
large amount of information which
had been gathered by engineers and
others through many years of obser-
walton and examination of the Sus-
quehanna river. which data had
come into their possession through
the courtesy OF interested parties.
General Taylor informed the Con-
gressmen that the work would be
performed entirely by officers of the
regular army. who were educated
and specially trained and had great
experience in work of this character.
After the War Department has de-
'ermined whether or not IL is pos
sible TO make the Susquehanna river
Navigable between the points desiC-
mated. and at what cost report
containing the facts and such recom-
mendations rs are deemed proper
viii be made to Congress- and il will
then be up to Congress to take fur
ther action as Is practicable. II the
report OF the engineering bureau o.
the War Department is favorable.
Mr.. Griest and Mr.. Kreider coincid-
ed in the opinion that there would be
little difficulty in securing further
necessary action by Congress.
