MAY MODIFY RULE
 VIOLATED BY RUTH
Change Expected After Judge
 LandiS DisposeS of Babes Case

New York, Oct 19.-All so needless, the Ruth f1are-up violation of a base ball rule by going barnstorfning. Les-t lie O'Connor, Commissioner Landiss g secretary, who left for Chicago last night, had this to say yesterday about the affair:
 The rule forbidding world series players from transforming would have been modified and the players permit ted to play their games had they gone about, it in the right way. Judge Landis when here went to the two dressing $ rooms and informed the players of both teams of the existence of the rules.
 We'll exclaimed Ruth, without waiting for anything else to be said, there is one player who's going out to play, anyway.
 There was nothing then for Judge Landis to do but stand firm on the rule. Had the players petitioned him for a modification he would have given lthem the perpnission. with such qualif1 : cations as would have required them to conduct the trip properly.
 "The major league club owners were here, and he could properly have put the matter up to them with his recom- IneuQaL1On LHaL t1lS eIIIl1SS1CH DS granted Judge Landis's whole record since he has been commissioners shows that he is a friend of the players. One mans pigheadedness however brought about the present situation.
 Before this matter came up Judge Landis had intended to have the rule in question modified. Whether he will do so now or not I don't know, but l think he will. His idea Is, to allow the 1 ule as it is to stay there, but tc amplity it by making transforming trips permissible on consent of the ! owners of the club involved and the | commissioner.
 l Also the players would be required abide by certain added require. .nents prohibiting their playing agains ineligible teams of players or on field:
 where they might run the risk O injury and from objectional conduct
 MT. O'Connor added that he though
 Judge Landis's decision on the disci pline to be meted out to Ruth ane the other Yankee players-Meusel Piercy and Sheehan-would be an
 nounced by the end of this week.

B1LLIARD1sT RUNS 400.

New York, Oct. 19.-An even mol impressive demonstration of abili than that with which he opened
 three-day exhibition at Daly's Acad- emy against Koji Yamada, Japanee billiardist, was furnished yesterday by Edouard Horemans, Belgian cue star, who holds the European balkline title. Horemans defeated Yamada by a score of 400 to 0 in the afternoon block, without giving the Japanese cueist a chance to use his billiard stick. The Belgian star ranssout his string @of 400 points in one inning, sstarting with the shot off spot and hft halting until he had rounded out his score of 400. The proceedings re- quired exactly 51 minutes, which was six minutes longer than Horepans needed to run 400 in the openfng block last Monday afternoon.

INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE
 WILL NOT OPERATE
Only Three Factories Ready to Enter Teams, so Managers Decide
 to Abandon Plans.

There will be no Industrial league basketball in this city this winter, this being practically decided on last night, when a meeting of the managers of three teams was held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms. Representatives from F. & F. Corbin, Stanley Works and the New Britain Machine com pany were on hand at the meeting. The Corbin and Stanley Works man. agers showed disposition to go ahead with the league, and sthe New Britain Machine company manager was also willing to select a team, just to help out the league, but when it came to securing a. fourth team, a tartar was struck. It had been hoped that the Stanley Rule and Level or the Lan- ders, Frary and Clark concerns would be interested, but no inclination was shown by the athletic enthusiasts of these factories to do so, and in con- sequence it was decided to call off the league this season. George Kron of the Corbin company stated today that the military officials would be notified that no league will be con- ducted this coming season.
 The situation as it stands at present leaves the field open to the Knights of Columbus, to produce the popular indoor sport this winter. The local council it is expected, will be a mem Der of the state league this winter Lawyer David L. Dunn has been nam ed representative of Daly council, tc attend a meeting of the league at New Haven next Sunday.

KING CRABS USED FOR FUEL
Bay Shore Farmers Also Use Them
as Food For Poultry and Swine


Farmers living along the bay shore,
near Milford, have discovered tina
king crabs are useful for fuel, and
have been saving them in order 70
help save their winter supply of wood.
1t has been found that the shells con-
tain an oil that makes them ideal for
a hot fire and they are especially fine
to use with green wood. A few years
ago the crabs were considered useless
and a nuisance but of late they have
been used to feed poultry and swine.
1t is claimed as an producing food
for fowls they are excellent. Farm
ers living near the bay shore have fed
their entire flock of chickens on king
crabs which have cost them nothing
except the hauling. The crab is split
open down the back and thrown to the
chickens. They pick the meat leaving
the shells and these shells are now
being collected and saved for fuel.
Mark Roberts, who resides near the
bay shore, near Milford, says his flock
of chickens have not cost him a cent
for food this year and he has enough
king crab shells saved for fuel to last
him until the middle of the winter Mr.
Roberts has dug small canal with a
gate and keeps king crabs in this
alive until he wishes to use them
Those who make a speciality of raising
swine say the crab is an excellent food
| for them
