NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE 1881
major league baseball season is over
insofar as competition for the
championships is concerned, but
several interesting fights still are in
progress.
In the American League, only
the league-leading Philadelphia
Athletics and the fourth-place
Cleveland Indians are certain to re-
tain their present berthS. Wash
ington and New York are staging
duel for runner-up honors and
at present are tied for second place.
Four other clubs, st. Louis, Detroit,
Boston and Chicago, are punched
within two and one-half games in
the second division with any one
of them likely to finish at the top
of second division or in the cellar.
Competition in the National
League is only a little more settled
with the first-place st. Louis
Cards, second-place Giants and
eighth-place Cincinnati Reds the
only clubs likely to be ousted
from their berths.
/ Brooklyn, fighting to take third
place from Chicago, is itself threat
ened by the birthplace Pittsburgh
Pirates, while Boston and Phila-
delphia are competing for sixth
place.

1t is said Perry has a date for a
conference with Manager John Nc
Graw of the Giants in Chicago next
Monday. McGraw owns a few
shares of stock in the New York
team, Charles Stoneham being
president and controlling stock
holder. 1t would take several mil
lion greenbacks to obtain the Polo
Grounds franchise.
KOenecke Deal Conference
Perry said he intended to sound
out McGraw on the chances of
breaking into the Giant stronghold
in big financial way. Another
reason for the Perry conference with
McGraw Monday is the Len
Koenecke deal. The star outfelder
was sold to New York for $4,000
in players, and the Tribe leader
desires to obtain a line on the men
McGraw plans to turn over to the
Indians for 1882 delivery.
III calling off the purchase of
Ernie Wingard by Indianapolis,
Prexy Hickey of the A. A. issued
the following statement: Under our
league rules no player can be sold
to another club between Sept. / and
the close of the season. Therefore
I have disapproved the Wingard
sale as illegal
Later Deal Permissible
1.-THE waiver route is the only
transfer route by which a player
can be sent to a rival team between
those dates. I realize Indianapolis
did not plan to use Wingard until
next season, but the deal can not
be permitted at this time. 1t will
be legal to make the deal after the
season closes if both clubs still wish
to enter into the transaction"

"The reparatiOnS in kind are,

At that meeting 1t was said
that the bank would not avail
itself of a $4,000, 900 credit
offered by the International Ac-

through the medium Of the Gold
Discount Bank of Berlin. This
morning, however, bank officials
changed their mind and an

avail itself of the credit in case
the heavy Withdrawals kept up.

At VATICAN
New Crisis, Following Pope's
EncyIicIiCaI, Seen Dimmed
BY Stimson Visit to Rome

ROME, July 6 GN.SO.-Fascist
newspapers again will be allowed
to attack the Vatican as the re-
suit of the hostile attitude toward
the Italian government taken by
today's OsServatore Romano, Of
ficial Vatican organ, Interna-
tional News Service was reliably
informed.
So far, italian newspapers have
refrained from mentioning the
Pope's defiant encyclical, entitled
Concerning Catholic Action"
which he sent to Paris by courier
and ha d distributed by parish
priests throughout Italy yester-
day. ~
Encyclical Eagerly Read
Italians eagerly read copies Of
the encycIical given out by the
priests. Travellers and foreign
newspapers arriving at Italian
points gave the first news Of the
document to be received by
Italians.
Italian newspapers were recently
prohibited from criticizing the
Vatican so as to prevent further
outbreaks by FaSciSts against
churchmen and church property.
This prohibition will now be
lifted, it was indicated today.
The government today was
understood to be preparing a re-
ply to the second Vatican note
in which the situation created
by the encyclical will be taken
up.
StimsOn Visit Due
AS Henry L. Stimson, American
Secretary of State, is expected
to arrive in Rome later in the
week to discuss disarmament and
reparations with Premier Mus
solini and Foreign Minister Dino
Grandi, it was said here today
that the Vatican controversy
would take second place in the
weeks events so far as the Fas-
cist Government was concerned.
Signor Grandi was not expected
to return from Turin, where he
went to attend the funeral of
the Duke of AoSta, cousin of
King Victor Emmanuel, until
Wednesday.
Some FasciSts today described
the situation as critical and it
was thought possible the Papal
nuncic to the QuirinaI, Mgr.
MOrgOngini Duca, might be re-
called by the Pope.

million marks in foreign exchange

TOday's heavy inrOads into the
