President Gondra Calls Attention -
Need of Loans to Banks.

AsuNCIoN. Paraguay. September 10.
Paraguay is suffering what is descrfb-
ed by President Gondra in a message
to congress as an acute monetary crisis.
This, he says. has been caused by
'the general economic depression, the
mmobility Of current banking accounts.
the elevation of prices, the recent s1a-
pension of the Bank of Spain in PafA~
quay and the sudden contraction OF

loans to banks for six months to tide
them over the crisis. Congress sane

and Chicago Player

New York, March 25.--John A..
Hcydler, president Of the National
League, has challenged Lee Magee,
former Cincinnati and Chicago Ma
tionai League ball player. to explode
his biggest bomb in baseball history" !"
Magee announced in Cincinnati yes
terday he would give out the charges on
which the National League bases its
action In barring him from its circuit.
He added that he would ''show up some
people for tricks turned ever since 1905,
and there will be merry music in the
baseball world" - +
In. letter to Robert s. Alcorn. Of
Cincinnati, Magee's attorney, Mr..
heydler said, no further attention would
be paid to the subject unless Magee
produce evidence duplicating others
with him, or show them to be guilty OF
wrongdoing in which he took no part. -
On presentation of such evidence, he as
serted. action of the National League
would be prompt and effective"
No charges are pending in this Office
by or against Mr.. Lee Magee," the
letter said. "If I understand the posi- :
tion taken by him in this interview. he
insists that charges have been made
against him by some one; that they
have to do with gambling and that he
will expose himself and drag others into
the matter with him. If there are any
others implicated In the matter to which
Mr.. Magee seems anxious to plead
guilty, the more quickly he names them
and gives proof of their completely with
him or others, the better 1t will be for
baseball" .....

FROM BLACK EYE
Batted Ball Drops on Manager
During Workout at
Camp

Birmingham, Ala, Mar th 25.-
Gavvy Cravath will lead his Phillies
out for their fourth exhibition game Of
the season this afternoon. this affair also
against the Birmingham Barons.
Cravath had his men at work yester-
day and sent them through the regular
grind. Emil Meusel. hard hitting out
fielder, who reported in camp yesterday,
was out on the field in his uniform. 1t
is not probable that he will get in to-
days game otherwise than as a pinch
hitter. 1t is probable that Crayath will
use virtually the same lineup that he
sent in against the Barons Tuesday,
namely, Stuart, shortstop; Lebouryeau,
left field; J. Miller, second base: Will
liams, center field; Stengel, right field !;
Paulette, first base; r. Miller, third
base; Tragressor. catcher. and Causey,
Smith. Weinert or Lingrel pitcher.
| Gavvy Cravath bumped into a bit of
hard luck, or rather the hard luck
bumped into him. The Philly manager
was discussing the topics of the
day with Carleton Molesworth, man
ager OF the Barons, when an unsus =
pected baseball dropped out of the ozone
smack on Gavvy's optic. The Philly
pilot is going around now with a lot of
