Paris. Jan. 2S. ,
The only satisfaction French off,
cials get from the failure OF President
Harding to define Americas position
regarding tie Genoa conference fol-
lowing the Cabinet session in Wash
ington yesterday, is that the reports
from British sources that Mr.. Harding
intended to blame Frances repara-
tons and disarmament intransigency
for Europc's present economic diff
Guilty now appear as lacking any foun-
dation.
The French Foreign Office for days
has been worried over the possibility
Of any such declaration by tho Presi-
dent. fearing that the effect would be
strengthening of botf, the Germans
and the Russians in their efforts to
reach the council table in Genoa with
out first bowling to the conditions
which the Poincare Government con-
sider essential-especially conditions
regarding the sanctity OF treaties and
acknowledgment of the Czarist debts.
It was stated in 2 Paris dispatch TO
THE NEW YORK HERALD yesterday, the
French greatly prefer postponement OF
the conference to appearing before the
world as a trouble making element. and
they are hoping that IL President Hard
ing does decide not to participate in the
Genoa meeting. It will be on friendly
basis, leaving the door open for Amer
ican assistance when the European fori-
gon is more clear.
Greater optimism was shown in some
official circles here to-day. especially
those circles which profess 70 believe
that the American farmers will be the
deciding factor in President Harding's
decision regarding the conference. as
Americas hope Of selling her surplus
grain and food products depends ef.-
tircly or bringing exchange rates nearer
normal.
I'VE know that tho American farm
harvests are selling badly, in fact. SO
badly that the selling price ls often

which reacts on the entire economic life
Of the United States. threatens TO per-

Common Fault at Times to For
get Number of Men Out.
"Doc" GessIer, a Mighty Good Ball
Player, College Graduate, Etc,
Pulled an Ivory Classic
Playing With Cubs.

Forgetting the number of men that
are out is a common fault in baseball.
Any number of ludicrous situations
have been created because some play
er thought two were out instead of
one
In the majors and minors every
year score or more of ''bOners'' are
pulled because the player making the
play lost track of the outs.
In a game at New York a number
of years ago, both teams and the UNI
pires became confused as to the num-
Der of outs.
The two clubs proceeded TO change
sides when only two men were out,
and only the wild shouts of the off
cial scorer that only two men had been
retired cleared up the situation.
However, the prize play featuring
the failure TO keep track of the outs
goes to Doc GeSsler, who was
mighty good ball player Gessler
played in both American and National
leagues. He was a college gradu-
ate and a mighty bright chap. but it's
just as easy for a collegian to pull
"bOner" as sandlotter, if he forgets
how many men are out.
Gessler was playing with the Cubs
when he pulled his classic in ivory
1t was the first of the ninth, the
bases were filled, one out and the score
mighty close.
Gessler evidently thought two men
were out. for when he made a remark

started for the clubhouse at top
speed.

him realize that only two were out all

also had a sort of a natural grin, wear

"St. Louis started him against Pitts

Pirates found themselves not only
without run, but also without the
Semblance of a hit.
"Just as the fifth started, Hans
Wagner, shortstop, went up to Capt.

we're SO easy. Let's go out and muir
