LEAGUE WILL BE AN ISSUE
 IN 1920.

Regardless of the outcome in the United States senate with reference to action on the covenant of -he proposed League of Nations, t now seems certain that the matter will constitute one of the main issues of the 1920 presidential campaign. This will probably be true regard less of whether the covenant is ap- proved without amendment or re servation; or Is approved with amendments or reservations as a part of the treaty; or is absolutely separated from the treaty and radi- cally amended or entirely rejected. For the covenant to be accepted as it is, or with but slight amendments, would be regarded, in politica! cir cles at least, as a decided victory for President Wilson and might cause many to urge him to run for a third term; while on the other hand, the defeat of the covenant would cause great pressure to be brought to bear upon him to run again and thus try the league issue out in a popular election.
 As regards the Republican party, at present all elements seem to be standing firmly together on the plan of refusing to approve the covenant without material amend ments. and, unless there is some break in this solid Republican anti covenant front, the chances of an early disposition of the league mat ter in the senate are by no means encouraging. If by any chance there should be a serious break on this question there are signs that a new Third party would be form ed, made up of both Democrats and Republicans, and basing is plea for support on unqualified Americanism as distinguished from internationalism. If there should be any break, it is probable that the remnant of the Republican party favoring the League of Ma tions would nominate MT. Taft be- cause of his strong stand in favor Of the covenant; that the pro-cov- enant element of the Democratic party would renominate MT. Wilson and that the new Third party would nominate Lodge, Borah, CT John son, or one of the numerous other strenuous opponents of the League of Nations plan.

CANADA's LABOR TROUBLES

The spreading strike in Canada had its origin in a dispute between the metal trade unions and the en- ployers, regarding hours of work and methods of collective bargain ing. There has been also a general antagonism between the radical ele- ments in the community and the conservative government. and much resentment at the firm way in which the government, during the war, put the quietus on radical agitation. This quietus was en- forced much more stringently in Canada than it was in this country
 Troops sent to Siberia saw no good reason for fighting and had to be returned home. The I. W. ". has done its share in stirring the unions to more drastic action. Last spring a convention of the Cana dian unions voted to separate from the American Federation of Labor on account of what it termed the conservatism of MT. Gompers. Ii declared for a general strike on June first, as a protest against what it termed the suppression of free speech" It also demanded the freeing of political prisoners and

break the tie that Is existing between
the two.
The Evergreen nine Is one of the
fastest travelling firms that halls from
New York. 1t has a record to be
proud of. One of the notable features
was the defeating of the Cuban X
Giants in a double header on July ~

The victory over the Amboy crew
by the outfit from the "city of
churches" was the first defeat Of the
season for the locals. The Brooklyn
oncern got off to a flying start in the
first inning hanging up three runs In
the third chapter they came across
with another and In the fifth one
more. From then on the game was
played with the full Intentions of
holding the Amboyans down where
they ~"belonged' tho in the last cou
pie of innings Amboy threatened to
climb up out of the hole.
Chunk" A~pplegate was in the box
for Amboy and held the visitors to
seven hits and famed ten of their
heavy men," Lupfer, the Brooklyn
finger, managed to strike out but five,
walked six and allowed five hits. His
support was above par, with his pard-

ever knocked.
Amboy too will be strengthened
from the makeup presented in the
first game. There are but five of the
PLAYERS now performing with the To-

IN Bic FIGHT
TONIGHT ROBER1SISFAVORTE

Tonight in Palace Hall the boxing
devotees and followers Of AL Roberts,
the Staten Island heavyweight
champ, will have an opportunity to
witness what promises to be some
fast scraps. Promoter Joe McNulty
announced this morning that every
thing was OK. for tonight with the
main e~ight-round bout. the six-round
semi-final and the three ~four-round
preliminaries.
Al WALDO, another Staten Island
heavyweight, who has about ten
pounds on Roberts, is to oppose the
"champ" tonight and followers Of
Wabo are laying their money down
or a bet hat Roberts will not kayo
their man in this bout. If such Is
the cas- WALDO must have improved
wonderfully since he last met Rob-
erts. Wabo was not knocked out the
last time Roberts met him but the
referee stopped the scrap in the sec
ond stanza because of the name in
which Roberts was beating his man.
It was in this scrap that a first round
haymaker looked probable when
Roberts knocked his man to the mat
but Wabo's seconds threw water on
him and brought him back to life.
Such an occurrence will not be per-
mitted to happen again.
The matter Of selecting a referee
for this bout is causing considerable
work Is 1t appeared this morning
that the selection Of the third man
laid between Brennan, Sullivan and
Lewis. Because Of the size of the
fighters a large man Is preferable
over q small referee. Either of the
three men mentioned should prove
satisfactory.
Tonight will mark Roberts first
appearance in the Lotos ring in over
D month and another record crowd Is
expected. II Wabo shows better
form than in his last bout some real
fighting should result and II what his
hackers claim Is true, such will be

BROTHERH0ODS ACCEPT
ONE OFFER OF HINES

Cleveland, O., Nov 25.-The 500
general chairmen of the four great
railroad brotherhoods called in con-
ference here by the four chief eXecu-
tiVes TO consider the offer of Director
General OF Railroads Hines granting
time and one-half for overtime in
slow freight service and a uniform
sixteen hour rule for crews held away
from home terminals, today voted to
accept the away from home" rule,
but did not reach a vote on the over
time proposition.
Discussion of the overtime prop
osition occupied most of today's two
sessions, many delegates bitterly OPP
posing it.
From an authoritative source to-
night it was learned that in all proba-
bility the delegates will reject the
offer of time and one-half for over
time in slow freight service at tomor-
rows meeting.
The director generals offer is in
response to the Brotherhood's request
for general wage increase OF APP
proximately so per cent and grants
time and one-half for overtime in
slow freight service. provided arbi-
trary allowances now given in many
of the schedules in effect, whcih cree
ate double or more payment for the
same hours are eliminated.
1t was said tonight that the pend
ing demands of the firemen and
trainmen for a wage increase was in
formally discussed today.
Outside of the overtime offer the
request for a general increase in
wages made by the Brotherhood of
Firemen and Enginemen and the
Brotherhood of Trainmen. several
months ago, to meet the high cost of
living, has not been answered by the
director general.
The Brotherhood of Railway Con-
ductors. it is understood, supports the
wage demands presented by the fire
men and trainmen.
