ton what is to become of Carl
Mays which has been agitating
baseball circles for the last week, with
JUNIORS that he was to be sent to the
minors denied by equally unverified
reports that he was to go to the
Cincinnati Reds. appeared TO be set
tied today. Colonel r. L. Huston.
part owner Of the New York Amer

Mays will remain with the Yankees.
1t has been reported thai waivers
had been asked on the submarine
pitcher. with n 'gentleman's" agree
ment among the major league clubs
that no claims would he put in. and
Mays would go to the minors. An
other report stated hat the Reds had
blocked the move by expressing will
ingness to take Mays and that the
waivers were then rescinded.
1--WE got two bets hat I want to
make about Mays" Colonel Houston
said. Il want to bet first Of all he
will be a member OF the Yankee ball

double that amount and bet Carl will

PARIS WOULD
BAR FIGHTING
Municipal Council to Discuss
Abolition of Ring Bouts
in City.

PARIS. Nov. ia motion asking
the Prefect Of Police to bar boxing
forever trcm Partisan rings has been
introduced and Will come up for dis
cusslon In the Paris Municipal Couu.
ell. Alderman Luquet is sponsor for
the and among his argu-
ments In favor OF his proposed bylaw
is tho following:
why should n duel with fists be
permitted when duels with swords or
pistols are forbidden"
Mr.. Luquet kindly ~refrains from
adding that many boxing matches
held in Paris lately have caused more
damage to the participants than the
majority of the duels. Carpenter had
ten chances to one of coming through
a duel with pistols unscathed. A 1T
tie prick from the tip OF a dislnfected
sword would have caused tho referee
to call the fight. in the event Ct a
meeting on the field of honor.
Another point which Mr.. Luquet
makes is that the school children Of
Paris. owing to the publicity given
10 pugilistic encounters. all imagine
hat when they reach twenty years
of age they will be champions OF
France and Navarro. with the result
that they are devoting more time TO
flattening the noses and caullflower-
ing the ears OF their comrades than
to the study Of the classics or modern
sciences.

shocks were felt at 1925 o'clock
this morning in the Copiabo and
Lazerna districts, where great loss
Of life was suffered in Saturdays
quake, according 70 National Tele-
graph dispatches.
The inhabitants Of Santiago were
much alarmed, early this morning.
when slight earth shock was felt
here, the motion apparently being
vertical. The tremor began a.
12:42 o'clock.
The director of a private meteor
illogical institute had forecast an
earth movement at 2 o'clock. due
to the conjunction Of the moon and
Saturn.
Relief Party Arrives.
Dispatches from Copiapo report
the arrival there of a medical and
relief party, bringing a large stock
Of food and medicines. The medi-
cal officers Of the party found a
number of the injured lying in the
open air in the vineyards, as the
hospital, which was built in 1S4S,
had been ruined. Other victims to
the number of 40, mostly aged per-
soM, were huddled in a motion pic
ture theatre. lacking proper ven
tilating facilities. The patients
were in need of most OF the essen
tails.
These condition, however, are
stated to be surpassed by those in
Vallenar, where bodies still remain
beneath the ruins. their Acondition
constituting a serious menace to
the public health. The inhabitants,
without food, are living in contin-
ual state of terror, sleeping on the
nearby hills. Breaking of the wa
ter pipes has left the town with
out water.
Grateful to c. S.
The news that President Harding
is sending warships to Huasco with
supplies was received here with
expressions of gratitude on all
sides. While doubtless the vessels
can not arrive for another week, it
is considered certain, Judging from
continued reports Of the serious
and appeals for relief
from the district, that the aid will
be timely.
Much appreciation was expressed
for the offer OF assistance from the
Red Cross. but SO far as
known no decision has been taken.
It is understood the authorities,
before accepting, ares endeavoring
to ascertain more definitely the ex-
tent OF the damages and the num-
Der of persons In need Of assist
ance.
