 " pilot, and Michael O'Gannon Kelly, advance agent for the St. Paul Blizzards, made the acquaintance this last week of the Col. Mulberry Sell CTS of the Mississippi Delta. This "Get-R -Rich-Quiek Wallingford" is a native of Benzine, on the Yazoo river. It is spelled Belzoni, however.
 The baseball moguls had a tele- gram from the Bcnzine bird urging that an exhibition game be played at Belzoni en route q to Memphis from a nearby town. What inducement did they want? Uncle McCloskey and Mike glanced at the yellow telegraph blank and decided they'd perform be- fore the natives for cash lump sum of five hundred iron bucks. They wouldn't consider percentage basis.
 And this Belzoni gazabo will have the sack to hold for about three hun dred dollars" they agreed.
 The Belzoni Mulberry Sellers backed up his bid with perfectly good draft, and the two teams hove in for agme.
 In the first block on the main street, after leaving the railroad sta ton, was a grandstand where for years the cotton pickers, who occupy white washed cabins that dot thou sands of acres in plantations for fifty miles around, have gathered with balls, bats, bricks and razors for the Sunday game.

.S7OO. 900 PURSE COIN

 Seven hundred thousand dollars will set a new mark for sixty days of rac- ing in Kentucky and the west. No reliable statistics are available for an accurate comparison, but it is extremely doubtfuI that there were ever about Newa York, even in the Tat years ol inc sport at Sheepshead Bay, Morris Park. Gravesend and Brighton Beach, when sixty days of racing paid horse men more generously.
 There will be ten days of racing at Lexington that will yield about $7o,oo0 to the owners of thoroughbreds. In the days of sport at Churchill Downs between s225, 900 and s2So.00o will be distributed. In the course of Latonia' s tbirtv-one days meeting horsemen will xet a matter of $390,000 or $395,000. The daily average distribution for the Kentucky season will be s12,000 or better.
 It is not surprising that there are more thoroughbreds of various ages and classes training at the Kentucky tracks this spring than were ever in the blue grass country Delore, nor IS IL aSton- ishing that the owners of so many of the powerful stables of the east have made arrangements to ship their smartest performers this way after the finish of spring racing in Maryland The Lexington meeting will be marked by the running of half dozen stakes, none of smaller value in added money than $3,000, and one. the Cam den handicap, of s5,000.

CHINESE BANKERS
! FINANCE INDUSTRY
Bluff to Force Hands Of Con-
sortium Seen; Politicians :.
! Oppose II.
BY WILLIAM n. GILES.

Py Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
Copyright. 1920.
PEKING, China. December lit is
officially stated that banking group
mas been formed in.Shanghai. COM
posed of inanciers from different
parts of the country, for the purpose
of financing China's industrial re-
quirements. The members express
willingness to do so, provided the gov
ernment guarantees that the money
cannot be used for any other purpose
than that for which it is raised and
that proper security is given. The
government has agreed that 1t Will
allow Chinese group full supervision
of the expenditure.
Itis not believed here, however, that
q Chinese banking group can or will
finance China, but that this is a part
of a bluff which intere sted parties are
putting up to- force the hands of the
consortium. Recently China's minis
ter of finance sent note to the Tor
eign consortium stating. that he was
unwilling to. grant the consortlum
any monopolY.or to sanction loans Tor
which a land tax was demanded as
security. This note create6 the opin-
ion that the consortium had demand
ed control of the land tax, which is
not true, and that it was an attempt
to arouse opposition against the con-.
A short time ago the finance min
lister asked the consortium to advance
a loan for administrative purposes,
but the latter refused. and rightly so.
because otherwise the loan would
have been used to meet the mill
tary Indebtedness.
A high official toldethe writer today
that the present cabinet would not
be able to consider consortium
loan unless it was placed before a
properly constituted parliament. and
that the consortium's terms were so
harsh that the country generally was
opposed to them He stated bluntly
that, unless she was financially assis
ed. China must become nationally
bankrupt. but that it would be better
that this should happen than that
the government should be forced to
appeal to international bankers and
to accept terms which the Chinese
people would say were equivalent to
selling China's sovereign rights.
This correspondent believes that
the opposition is engineered by in
terested politicians who realize that
a consortium loan will prevent COM
missions and other graft which
hitherto have gone into their pockets.
