BRITAIN WANTS TO DEAL
WITH PRESIDENT WILSON
Declarations of Harding Said to
Have fastened Chalmers De-
parture to United States.

Cross-Atlantic Cable Service to The Star.
LONDON. January 6.-That Britai.
is preparing to deal with the Wilson
administration directly in an adjust
ment OF the British debt to the United
States and will not wait for the Hard :
ing administration is the unofficial in
formation current here.
Lord Chalmers trip to the United
States at this time is to settle with
the Treasury Department the details
of the repayment or refunding %f
these loans before the inauguration.
Britain has been advised that in view
of Harding'S campaign declarations
the Wilson regime does not want to
leave to the next administration the
settlement of so important a matter.
This word FASTENED Chalmers de-
parture.
That Chalmers is leaving for Wash
lngton with an open mind in the mat
ter and no definite proposition to pre-
sent is the understanding here. Pay
ment on the loans was postponed
three years. it is said, on condition
that they be funded, when about a
year ago the two governments decided
some definite arrangement should be
made for the payment of principal
and interest. Chalmers negotiations
in America will be exclusively with
the present administration of the
Treasury. and any reports that he
will deal either officially or unofi-
cially with the next administration
are incorrect.

MAKE THIRD ATTEMPT
TO GUST SOCIALISTS
Little Hope, However, of New
York Assembly Removing
Three Members.

ALBANY. N. Y, January 6.-For the
third time within a year the state
assembly has been asked to expeI
the entire socialist representation,
which, this year, includes three mem
bers, Four resolutions demanding
thar the seats of Charles Solomon and
Henry jaeger, members from Kings,
and Samuel Orr of the Bronx be de-
clared vacant. were offered by re-
publican members.
Unlike the first custer proceedings
year ago. however, action on the
resolutions was deferred and the So
cialists permitted to retain their seats
temporarily, at least. BY unanimous
vote, the assembly referred the reso-
buttons to the judiciary committee to
be appointed next week by the new
speaker of the assembly, H. Edmund
MacHold of Jefferson.
Solomon, in resolutions submitted
by Ralph Halpern of Queens and
George H. Rowe of Erie. was declared
Ineligible" to sit in the assembly
in view of the fact that he had been
adjudged guilty of "disloya1ty' by a
previous assembly. J. T. Carroll Of
Kings offered two resolutions calling
for the expulsion of lager and Orr
because The two men ARE members
of the socialist party of America,
which aims to establish a socialist
proletariat in this country"
While some members from upstate
appear determined to press the custer
proceedings, it is generally believed
at the capitol that the socialists will
be permitted to retain their seats
throughout the session.

FARMERS EQUITY UNION
IN COOPERATIVE SCHEME
Nationwide Chain Of Markets and
Purchasing Agencies Proposed at
St. Louis Convention.

ST LOUIS. January 6.-Plans for
establishment of nationwide chain
of cooperative markets and purchas-
ing agencies were under consideration
at the opening session of the tenth
annual convention of the Farmers
Equity Union here today.
Delegates asserted the central
marketing arrangement offered the
best opportunity for eliminating
speculation in farm products, and
would benefit both consumers and
producers.
The cooperative buying scheme. it
was explained, permits the farmers to
obtain their supplies at reduced
prices.
All kinds of farm produce will be
handled through the central markets,
according to tentative plans, but it is
expected particular attention will be
given to grain, live stock and dairy
products.
In addition to promoting the
unions own markets. delegates an
ticipate the organization will decide
on measures to be taken to partici-
pate in the movement for centralized
grain and live stock markets at the
agricultural conference called by the
national board of farm organizations.

Democratic National Chairman George

Emil Meusel Thinks
He Will Keep Ahead
OF Bob in Hitting
tBy Associated Prees)

NEW YORK, Oct. S-Emil Irish"
Meusel, of the Giants, is confident he
will keep ahead of his brother Bob,
of the Yankees, in hitting during the
worlds series.
Although starting late the National
outfelder has stepped ahead of his
brother in number of hits made thus
far Emil has his eyes set on winning
that Thanksgiving series in which the
brother having the lower batting ave-
rage must provide a banquet for the
whole Meusel family.
He enters the game today with a
| batting average of 300, just q points
! ahead of Bob. Emil made all his yes
terday in the Giants smuggling victory
a double and two singles. His double
with three men on basis in the seventh
broke the tie score, sending in two
runs. This hit, by the way went right
out to brother Bob in right field. He
scored two runs during the game.
! Bob Meusel also did some hitting on
his own account yesterday. He made
double and a single.
! Although the club houses of the two
teams are only few feet apart bach
of the Centerfield bleachers, the rival
players have nothing in common. They
keep to themselves, going and coming
through separate park entrances.

Pendable outfielder and timely hitter
he brought up his batting average from
900 to sos in yesterdays game. He
made four solid hits. one a terrific line
triple along the right field foul line
another a double to left and two sin
giles But his thriller was the running
catch he made off Quinn's bat in deep
| centerfield. 1t was the outstanding
fielding stunt of the day-a regular
Frischian play.
! Wonder what umpires talk about
when they're not umpiring?" One far
near the press box asked. Here's the
answer as to one of them. Quigley
was discussing the technical points Of
football a few minutes before the game
started. II he wasn't umpiring in q
worlds series. Quigley today would be
officiating at the Harvard-lndiana
game at Cambridge, Mass. He broke
that engagement after he learned he
had been picked to work at the Pole
grounds.

but missed the coveted goal by one
point. Hornsby's final average was

Jay Kirke, the first baseman of the
Louisville American association, es-
tablished a new worlds mark for hits
in one season, by breaking the record
made by l.. A. Miller of Oakland. last

the curtain was rung down and beat

his mark in 1919 games. Kirke played
in 16S games.

(Ry Associated P-essl

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-Yesterdays
giant victory, as result of the inef-
fective pitching of the Yankee twirlers,
saw number of worlds series records
smashed to smithereens. These eight
hits in the 7th inning made one record,
the runs another and the twelve men
who batted still another. Pip Youngs
two hits in the inning, one single,
the other a triple, also made history.
The time required to play the nine
innings-two hours and forty minutes,
added few lines to the records.
Twenty hits for one team in one
game never were recorded before in
worlds series. Burns garnered four OF
them. three singles and a triple.
Prisch, besides drawing three free
passes hit safely twice, Young walked
twice then made a triple and a single
in the same inning. Emil Meusel col
lected a double and two singles,
Snyder four singles and Jess Barnes
two. Rawlings got two and Bancroft
one. Kelly and pitcher Toney were
the only Giants who failed to connect
AT least once.
Create History.
George Burns great run and capture
of Quinn's drive toward the centerfield
bleacher wall will go down in baseball
history as one of the greatest plays
of the game. 1t will be mentioned
along with Aaron Wards leaping one
handed catch of Rawlings liner to-
ward right in the second which enabled
the Yankee keystone sacker to double
Emil Meusel off first and pull Bob
Shawkey out of deep dark hole.
Toney's showing for the Giants was
disappointing, but big Fred had a
tough break and probably will get an
, other chance. Jess Barnes, who re-
lieved him, pitched masterful game
and as a result McGraw believes he
las the series won.
Remember how Douglas pitched in
the first game and how Nehf worked
in the second and then count Barnes"
said the Giant leader. I expect to win
with all three of them again and | be-
lieye Toney is good despite that third
inning yesterday. 1t appears that the
Yankees have only Mays and Hoyt
and believe we will beat them in their
next appearances.
Today being a half holiday for bust
rness people in New York. a record
crowd was expected to pack the Polo
