Chicago, Feb. 12.-Prospects of
drawing up a new working agree
ment between the major and the
minor leagues, who have been at
outs for a year, frightened today
following a double session between
a committee from the minors and
one from the national league, The
American league was represented
at the meeting but did not have an
official committee present, because
most of the magnateS had left the
city.
No definite action was taken
during the day, but it was an
nounced that the meeting between
the national league and the minor
league committee was progressing
satisfactorily.
The American league will not
enter into any written agreement
until after the disposal Of the Ball
timore federal league suit, it was
said at the forenoon session by
Connie Mack, president of the Phil
adelphia club.
The sense Of opinion at the after
noon gathering was that the draft
should be restored. Several of the
members on the minor league COM
mittee declared, however, that
there must be certain reservations
made. The minor leagues also de-
clared for appointment of an arbi-
tration board consisting of two
members from the majors and
minors. In case this board could
not agree on a point under discus
sion, it was declared that a third
party outside of baseball should be
named to decide.
The optional agreement also was
discussed but everything was put
over until tomorrow.

CHILE FAV0RS MEXICO
IN THE JENKINS CASE

tu' hDHfslFe JpufFeL SFtClAl lEhSED WlRE1
Santiago, Chile, Feb. 12.-Pub-
lie opinion in Chile as far as eX-
pressed by leading newspapers Of
Santiago was inclined to favor Mex
leo in the incident resulting from
the demand of the United States
for the release of the American
consul, william Q. Jenkins, who
was arrested at Puebla after hav-
ing been kidnapped by Mexican ban
dts.
The two principal papers here
FL MerCurio and Ell Diario Illus
trado, treated the question from
the point of view of international
law based upon facts as reported
by cable and sent by the Mexican
government to Mexican legations
all over South America. Both pa
pers expressed the opinion that
Mexico had a right to Judge Mr.
jenkins, unless a miscarriage Of
justice were approved and that the
United States had no right to in
terfere.
The Mexican question was widely
discussed in Chile. 1t had a spo-
Cial interest for South America be-
cause of its bearing upon the at
titude Of the United States toward
one of the Spanish American re-
publiCs,
Americans here feel that Wash
ington should keep South American
opinion officially informed concern
ing the relations of the United
States with Mexico. They say that
the development of trade between
North and South America depends
more upon friendly sentiments than
is generally known, and that other
manufacturing countries realize
this and are ready to take advant-
age of every opening the United
States may give them.

civil war and of the period of re-
construction after the civil war of
the monetary panics which we sur
fCred at frequent intervals until the
CSta blishment of our federal re-
serve system, America suffered
greatly for lack of capital and
credit and because of her depreci-
lated currency, and later her in
elastic currency. In those days
by government loans, not with any
comprehensive plan. but by the in
yestment of private capital upon
attractive terms in American en-
terprises and in the purchase of
American securities at bargain
prices. Europe profited enormous

lea profted too because she OBJ
tanned the capital she needed at
the price that the capital was
worth to her Honest and ener-
gGtjc business men in both coun-
tries went to work in their own
way and solved the problem on
business terms. Yet, in those days
Europe was far better able to meet
the relatively small demand of
America than is America now, bur
doned as she is by government ex-
penditures since the beginning of
the war to the aggregate amount
of about $36.70O,000,00O to meet
the stupendous demands of Europe
today.
Il am confident that the solution
of Europes problems will be found
by the wisdom and courage of Eu-
ropean statesmen in facing the
monetary difficulties imposed upon
them by the great war and by the
enlightened, sympathetic and
friendly cooperation of the BUSH

Many Houses
For Sale, But
None For Rent

Demands for houses, both for sale
and for rent were never greater in
Topeka than at present. according to
W. A. Neiswanger.
There are a large number of houses
in Topeka for sale at present, Neis-
wanger stated. Sales are being rapid
ly consummated. The average amount
being paid is from $4,000 TO $4,000.
He points out that people seem to have
the money as many sales are being
made on a cash basis. Little time is
being asked and few houses are pur-
chased on the installment plan.
Neiswanger declared the contem
plated improvements of the Rock Is
land already have affected real estate
values north of Sixth street. De-
mands for property in that part of the
city north of Sixth street are due to
increase s are also demands for Pot
win property. and lots in the district
west of Potwin.
Very few houses are for rent. Neis-
wanger says demands are for first
class houses. Some places that might
be rented do not meet with approval.
While demands are for the best.
houses of lesser pretentions may be
either rented or sold.
