Is likely to be sorely tempted to part
with at least Myer, who, great ball
player that he is, never again figures
to duplicate his 1885 performance and
who will be in his 33d year when next
season opens.
Trading possibilities with the Red
Sox, by Grifhth's admission, have di-
nlinished. Joe Cronin was hot after
ManuSh, but few weeks ago BoStons
oVertureS suddenly stopped leading
Grif to believe that Cramer, as well
as possibly Eric McNair, Jimmy Foxx
and Johnny Marcum of the AS. def
nttely are ticketed to play in the
Hub in 1896.
The Browns, with whom Washing
ton has done most of its trading in
recent years. have little that Griffith
wants, excepting Outfielder julius
Solters. The dope is that Solters is
not for sale or trade.
Philadelphia has not been on Wash
ington's trading list since the begin
ming OF Griffith's regime, and chances
OF a deal with the Tigers are not
bright. 1t has been predicted freely
that Gerald Walker. the outflelder
wanted by Harris, will go to Chicago
with Eden Auker and a sum of money
for al Simmons and Mule Haas. If
Detroit lands Simmons, they will not
want anybody from Washington except
Cecil Travis, who positively is not on

Detroit deal go through, incidentally.

Dykes Wants WhitehiI.
THUS, through the process of this
deduction, it would seem that in
addition to New York, chief hopes of
Washington lie in Cleveland and Chi

The Indians lack an outfielder as a

Manager O'Neill should be strong for

tains long nave been eyeing several
New York pitchers and for a time

be made, with Heinie Manush or
Johnny Stone going in exchange.

cooled on such deal, however, prob
ably on the theory that Connie Mack
was prepared to auction off flock
of his Athletic stars, including Out

Whether Griffith will be able tc

OF the Red SoX to dispose of johnson
Even if the local plans of rekindling

there still will be an opportunity for
Griffith and Harris to talk turkey

no secret of the fact that he wants

BOSTON, December 16.-Reports
from all sections Of the country reveal
that aggregate business volumes are
now higher than in any other De-
cember since 1880, the United Busi-
ness Service points out in its latest
analysis of trade and industrial con-
ditions. s
Although the most optimistic news
Is coming from retail trade channels,
It Is encouraging to note that the
ordering of capital equipment con-
tinueS in large volume. Recently
purchasing by railroads has increased,
construction contracts have been
larger and machinery suppliers have
received more business. 1t is clear,
therefore, that the present improve
ment is not confined to consumer
goods.
Because of the sizable backlog OF
orders on the books Of most manu-
featuring establishments at the pres
ent time, no early letdown in the
prevailing rate of activity is antlcl-
pated. Opinion is growing, however
that the current uptrend will make
q temporary peak some time in the
first quarter of 1885.
Three important retarding factors
are cited by the United Service which
are likely to bring about this halt
in the recovery trend. These are Cd
the highly critical condition of Euro
pean affairs, (2) the rising level OF
inventories and 90 the advances
which have taken place in the prices
of many products. Although these
factors may restrict economic progress
