BY TOM NOKES


(Secretary National Baseball Fedora
tion)
The big purpose of the National
Baseball Federation is to establish a
standard of rules and playing condl-
lions so that amateur ball players OF
the east and west and north and
south may meet on an equal basis
when they come together in annual
series for sandlot championships.
The idea is to have organizations
in every community center In the
country who will regulate baseball for
the amateurs. Evils of amateur base
ball, such as the pitting of youngsters
of promise against seasoned veterans,
q thing manifestly unfair, and the
importing of star players for the final
championships, would all be done
away with. -.
Proper organization of the sandlot
same will give better and broader
executive managership, proper de-
velopment of the players themselves
and the right kind of interest from
the public. And, as the public inter-
est increases, more adequate support
will be received from the community.
The federation believes I'm the prin-
| ciple of home rule. Each animated
! city may have its own rules, suitapie
TO local conditions, so long as, in the
MAN,, they meet the requirements Oh
the federation. .
When a community organization Is
effected, little difficulty will be found
in securing leading citizens, who will
supervise affairs and act as a court OF
last resort. One thing remember. al
ways be fair. Be Interested IN the
growth of good, clean sport.
Under the present rules of the Fed
Grafton, there are two classes of pail
| p~layers: those who receive nothing for
playing and those who may receive q
little money now and then but are not
| dependent on the game for a lveli-
hood.
Since the national organization was
formed, reel gnition OF the sandlotters
| has been given both at washington
at The nrofacsional interests. Pres.

ident Sexton of the minor leagues
said the other day: The so-c2fed
sandlotters are as essential to the de-
velopment and ~perpetuity of baseball
as the5major league star"
Professional interests are now CO.
operating with the Federation on elig-
Utility rules, indicating that the sand
letters are coming into their own.
Sporting goods dealers are barred
from holding office in h National
Baseball Federation, so that all OF
them get an equal chance at the sand
lit business. And, without the anna
tours, the sporting goods houses cSuld
not exist. There are over 10000 anna
teur teams Of record in the United
States, with over 10000 signed play
ers, as compared with the so to 100
per cent professional clubs, using
about 1000 players.
And, in attendance too, the sandlot-
ters far outdraw the professionals The
total attendance at Sunday games is
from 200 to 10000 in each of the
score of more of leading amateur
centers. At one game alone Tin Cleve-
land. Ohio), there was an attendance
of 10000 people to witness the White
Autos of Cleveland and the Omaha

tives and fIsends, who turn out to see
him at every opportunity.
The men who hav been In charge
of the affairs of the National Baseball
Federation have nothing to gain by
their connection with the organiza-
ton and the sport, except the feeling
something for the young men and
of satisfaction that they are doing
boys and are proving of service to
the country. They gain nothing ex-
cept the hard knocks from those dis
griuntledteams and players and back
ers who cannot have things conducted
to suit their own individual interests.
Now the Federation feels hat II
! can branch out, and ~ preparing to
gradually extend its field until the
east, the far west and the south are
also affiliated and enjoying the fruits
OF membership and craftsmanship.

CONSULAR AGENT
AIDED REBELS BY
RANSOM PAYMENT
Carranza Comes Forward
With a New Unique Excuse
Causing the Second Arrest
of w. 0. Jenkins.

10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED WiREl
Washingtone Nov, 23.-The answer
of the Mexican government to the
sharp note demanding the immediate
release of William O. Jenkins, Ameri-
can consulate agent at Puebla, prob
ably will be delivered to the state de-
partment tomorrow
a long dispatch bearing on the
Jenkins case. it was learned tonight,
has been received at the Mexican
embassy and was being deciphered to-
day for presentation to the govern
ment. While authoritative informa-
ton as to the attitude of the Mexican
government was lacking, all indica-
tons here pointed to n technical re-
fusal to order the release of Jenkins
Since his arrest, it was learned addi-
uonal charges against the American
official have been formulated, based
upon alleged evidence that he actively
assisted persons in rebelling against
the Carranza government. Payment
of large sum of money to the rebels
which was used by them to purchase
munitions and acting in collusion with
rebel leaders are said to be specific
counts yin the new Indictments
What was regarded as a hint of
MeXico's position in the Jenkins case
was noted in an article published byi
the Mexican newspaper Excelsior, a
copy of which reached Washington
today. The paper stated that jenkins
second arrest was based upon charges
that he actively assisted the rebels.
The certain sum of money" of
which jenkins is accused of deliver
ing to the rebels consisted of the
100000 pesos he was compelled to
pay ransom to Federico Cordova. the
rebel whose forces kidnapped him. The
collusion charge is based upon the
fact that Jenkins agreed to pay the
rebel leader the ransom in order TO
save his life and gain his liberty
Contrary to custom in Mexican
courts, the proceedings in the Jenkins
case on the occasion of his second !
arrest were marked with the utmost
secrecy, jenkins was summoned to |
court, where he was placed under ar !
rest. His plea for bail was refused |
by Judge Gonzales Franco on account
of the gravity of the offense" In |
every particular the proceedings were |
secret and court attaches were warned !
they would be dismissed and other
wise punished If any facts relating to |
the case reached the public.
Officials here regard the nature of |
the new charge against Jenkins as an
effort on the part of the Mexican
government to take the case out or |
the hands of the Puebla state authori- |
ties, as both charges are of crimes
against the federal government.

TEACHERS ENJOY
RARE MUSICAL At
TWILIGHT HOUR

A magic hour of tonal beauty was
granted visiting teachers at sunset yes
terday afternoon in the Congregation
al church. The organ recital by Miss
Allene Bixler, assisted by Mrs. ]. d.
Morris, harpist Mrs j. S. Landers, So
pranq, and John Lukken, baritone,
will be among the most delightful of
memories that the visitors will take
home with them and which will
prompt them to make the trip to Al
buquerque as often as possible.
Perhaps, few city residents stop
long enough to realize what it means
to the music-starved teacher from the
bare plazas and pueblos with their
lack of cultural advantages and the
finer arts, to step into a perfectly pro-
portioned golden auditorium like that
of the Congregational church. with its
tones of yellow, produced by the sun
light pouring through large golden
stained windows, and reflected by the
gilded pipes of the organ the golden
harp and harmonious woodwork; to
realize how that sudden beauty is
suddenly enhanced by the peals of
the organ as the organist intonates
the most wonderful of all marches,
that from Tannhauser by Wagner,
which ushers in more weddings
throughout the world each day than
any other music. Then to hear the
tinkling of the harp in Shubert's de-
votional Ave Maria; then to get the
vision of singer wondrously fair, of
attractive womanly beauty with win
ming smile as she sings Browning's
Thy Face" and more fascinating still,
Lehmans There Are Fairies at the
Bottom of Our Garden" with it's nu-
ances rising to unexpected thrilling
heights and volume in the last line
of each verse, sung with mezzo-
soprano voice of surprising timbre and
rich mellowness, and handled with the
artistry of a prima donna. Then to
listen to the restful "Priere ct Ber-
ceuse," and "Pastorale," especially the
latter, with its ingratiating crescendo
passage, by that master composer of
organ music, Guilmant, to be capped
with the Cradle Song" by Spinney
marvelously sweet and soft Then to
have baritone with resonant, SYM
pathetic voice, sing Ever Lasting
Day and 81 Am the Harp" with all
the feeling of a lover of music: then
to hear the harp again, this time un-
accompanied, tell of Memories" mu-
sical, heavenly, and finally to hear the
staccato notes like trumpet tones in
Demmens' March Pontificale.''
1t was inexpressiby beautiful to the
men and women who came from the
mesas and the canyons the mountains
and the desert patches of this state
of magnificent distances Whoever ar
ranged the program knew what he
was about. for in its simplicity it i
missed no beauty: ii essayed no unat- |
tainable heights and yet demonstrated
that classic and popular music can
be made one and the same.
Albuquerque, because of its com |
mercial and industrial supremacy
permits the state to forget |
that il is a university town, center
Of culture, which is offering the |

Paris, Nov. 23.-'If the new cham
Der of deputies wishes to fulfill the
national mandate last received il will
first have to occupy itself with the
situation created in France by the at
ttude of the United States. 1t will
have to demand an accounting by
those over there and over here who.
by making mistakes themselves, have
deceived our country"
This is the conclusion of Jacques
Bainvilles comment in the Action
Franchise on the result of the French
elections and the American senate's
discussion of the peace treaty, In an
other passage he attacks President
Wilson, saying: Wilson'S RESPONSE
bility is great. To the personal views
of this democratic dictator our COM
missioners sacrificed some of the es-
sentlal interests of France. The So
ciety of nations has vanished the
Wilsonian policy has fallen. DO our
sacrifices remain? What shall re-
main of the society Of nations with
out American participation but the
shadow of a shadow"
Bainville's comment is echoed in all
circles opposed to Wilson's policy.
The critics of the republican senators
have not yet answered, partly because
the exact stand taken by Wilson is
not at all clear here. But the conse-
quenccs of the senate reservations ON
the treaty already are being discussed.

tician, that France and England
again will have to bear the respon-
sibility for the peace of the world.
France. who had counted on Ameri-
can aid in peace, as she did in war.
today finds herself alone And wnat
will happen If she is again attacked,
as in 1912"
There Is btterest criticism of the
republican senator's, and Frenchmen
are wont to say the time has come
when party politics should be set
aside and the future of civilization
considered. French socialists, who
were among the stanchest supporters
of President Wilson. turn on him to-
day as they do on the republicans.
I'VE know the egotstic reasons,"I
says L'Humanite which have led
the United States to reject the treaty,
but we know also that the treaty
would have been accepted if Presi-
dent Wilson had remained faithful to
his fourteen points, and if veritable
society of nations had been founded
instead of union of so-called vc-
tors"
In bringing in the question of the
French elections the socialist news
paper says:
"At a time when Clemenceau is
victorious at the elections, that fine
instrument so laboriously put together
by the supreme council is crumbling.
The Tigers triumph is a precariousI
one, for France Is not alone in the
world. The chiefs of the systematic
opposition to the treaty which men
aces Europe with new wars have an

GARFIELD To ACT
To END STRIFE IN
THE COAL FIELDS
Fuel Administrator Is Expect
ed to Take Steps Today to.
Bring the Long Drawn Out
Conflict to a Climax.


Washington, Nov. 23.-The inter-
vention of Fuel Administrator Gar
field tomorrow in the tagging neEo-
tiations OF bituminous operators and
miners of the central competitive field
was expected tonight to bring to a eli
max the long drawn out conflict and
clear the way for speedy settlement
OF the strike situation which has put
the country on the verge of a coal
famine
Although the day brought no new
developments here, as mine owners
and workers awaited action by the
administration, it was evidence that
both sides recognized a settlement
could, not long be delayed. No formal
meetings Of any sort were held.
Reports recei ed by operators from
middle wel'tern states showed that
the coal scarcity already had reached
the famine stage and that the cold
weather had brought suffering and
hardship.
Several operators today declared
their willingness to accept whatever
proposition the government might Of
fer. With the entire country aroused
to the need of resuming the produc-
ton of coal on a normal basis, neither
the miners nor the owners of the
properties, they said, could afford to
turn deaf ear to recommendation of
the government.
AS the situation now stands as re-
CARDS wage advances, the operators
have offered an increase of 30 per
cent and the miners have agreed TO
accept the 81 per cent proposed by
Secretary Wilson. The possibility of
a compromise between those figures,
part of the increase to be paid by the
public in higher prices and some to
come out of the margin of the min
ing companies, was suggested in some
circles and it was said this would be
placed before both sides tomorrow
