place of Kay for the Engineers. Judg-

advantage in fielding. Even.
Naylor and Fish will be the centre

ers and timely hitters and a be de-

probably give Dory the edge in the
field and Naylor a slight edge at bat.
Even.
Wade Reynolds will stack up against

HOW GERMANY KILLED AMERI.
CAN DYE INDUSTRY
n. dIIIItI
Continued from last WeeE

The situation presented by the agen-
cies of the German dye companies of
the second rank has been less satisfac-
tory. The great Griesheim Elektron
Co. was represented in this country
by two concerns, Geienseimer G. Co.,
a partnership between American citi-
zens, now dissolved and A. Klipstein,
a corporation of which all the
stock was held by two unrelated
Klipstein families, all citizens. No
trace of real German ownership could
be discovered, after the most prolong-
ed and laborious investigation both
here and abroad, by all the depart
ments interested, in either of these
companies, though the business of
both had been largely derived from
German sources throughout their ex-
istence. The house of Weller Termeer
was represented in this country by the
Geigy-Termeer Co., now the Geigy Co.,
in which, prior to the beginning of 1917
the German house owned 20 percent of
the stock. This stock was, however,
transferred before u entrance into
the war to the Swiss house of ]. r.
Geigy & Co., a firm in good standing
with the allied Governments. 1t has
been impossible to ascertain whether
this transfer was in any respect for
the benefit of the German house, but
in any case the great majority of the
stock of this company is in Swiss and
not in German hands.
In general the letters outlined the
proposition as clearly as it could be
stated, and the Scheide-Anstalt people
can not have avoided fully understand
ing just what was wanted, except on
the supposition that the letters don't
mean what they say and that the real
proposition was one which it was dan
gerous to put on paper. Their refusal
at all event, even to name a price, was
