will compete in the Far Eastern cham-

next January. They will leave here
Nov. 23.
Throckmorton holds the national ju-

New York, Oct. 19.—The National
league must be strengthened, in the
: opinion of John K. Tener, its presi-
; dent. Mr. Tener says he believes the
21-player limit has worked against the
L league in world’s series games and
that the limit will be increased next
year.
“There is no use in the National
league making any excuses or giving
any alibis,” said Mr. -Tener. “We have
played poor ball, very poor ball, in the
last few series. Our pitchers held up,
but that was all. In my annual mes-
sage to the club owners I have called
attention to the fact that the National
league does not get its prestige in the
executive office, but on the ball field.
That is where the public judges us.”
It was reported today that President
Tener, Harry Hempstead, president of
the New York National league club,
and John J. McGraw, the club’s man-
‘ ager, will meet here today or tomor-
row to talk over McGraw’s criticism of
the New York players in their final
, series with Brooklyn.

For down in his dugout Brig. Gen.
Marchand today expressed to the Asso-
ciated Press his opinion that the war
would be decided on the western front
whenever the entente allies saw fit to
strike the final blow. The general
said the decision must be fought out
on this side sooner or later and that,
while he was not a prophet, the allies
certainly had the upperhand now and
would not get out of touch with the
Germans, who, judging from their
movements, are worried.
A number of celebrities were inter-
viewed in regard to the purchase of
the franchise. Some of their replies
were as follows:
Charles Chaplin—Though it takes a
day’s salary, I will purchase it.
Pancho Villa—I could not possibly be
interested in purchasing the Brooklyn
club, for I am having troubles of my
own, in Mexico, and if it is as hard to
secure recruits in Brooklyn as in Mex-
ico. I would have my hands full.
Theda Bara—I believe the Brooklyn
teams should be a success. I will “vam-
pire” the umpires and make them give
all the decisions in our favor.
Chick Evans—I would buy the club
if a golf course could be constructed
for use during the winter months and
on holidays.
Charles E. Hughes—Nothing doing. I
am too busy flaying my friend Wood-
row and making friends with the Hy-
phenates, to think of running a base-
ball team.
Henry Ford—I would give three jit-
neys and a tool box. I would then
place Bill Bryan in charge and invite
the team to a grape juice banquet.
Audrey Munson—To the pure all
things are pure. As a pure sporting
proposition it sounds good. I would
gladly “pose” as a purchased for the
Superbas.
Annette Kellerman—I would be will-
ing to give a good “figure”- for the
Brooklyn franchise.
Enrique Caruso—I will buy the fran-
chise of the Dodgers if I can get it
for a song.

Controversy Over Control of Right of

Norfolk, Oct. 19.—Beginning of con-
struction work upon Fort Storey, the

ascertain if they were being treated
properly.
Premier Asquith admitted there had
been a regrettable blunder in recruit-
ing in the early stages and said Mr.
Redmond’s suggestions for filling up
with Irishmen the wasted ranks of
the gallant Irish division would re-
ceive the most sympathetic attention.
No man had rendered more constant
loyal or effective service in recruiting,
he decluared, than the Irish leader.
Repudiating the allegation that Dub-
lin Castle was being run by a Unionist
division, the premier said it must be
remembered that they were dealing
with a provisional and he hoped, a
transitory situation.
Martial law in the commonly ac-
cepted sense was not being applied
to Ireland and if the desired end,s could
be secured by different means nobody
would be more anxious to adopt them
than the government. He did not con-
sider it safe in view of the possible
recrudescence of recent events to dis-
pose with the- existig safeguards,
but the government was desirious at
the earliest possible moment to revert
to normal conditions.
Turning to the question of the Irish
prisoners, some stormy passages oc-
curred. Mr. Asquith promised that
those detained should be liberated at
the moment it was considered safe to
do so.
The Nationalist member, Alfred
Byrne, representing a division of Dub-
lin (Shouted, “They are starving.”
Any complaints brought to the no-
tice of the home secretary, said Mr.
Asquith, would receive immediate at-

MEANS COERCION.
T. P. O’Connor said Secretary Duke’s
speech simply meant corecion, more
coercion, but the whole history of Ire-
land proved that coercion was useless.
The government, he said, could not en-
ter with clean hands the peace which
he prayed and believed would follow
the entente victory unless Ireland was
pacified.
Challenged by Timothy Healy, Pre-
mier Asquith said he would be most
happy if the American ambassador

The Ball high school football team
won its second game of the season
yesterday afternoon by the score of 14
to 0. The Draughon Business col-
lege eleven were their opponents. The
latter team did remarkably well, con-
sidering the fact that none of them
have had more than two or three days
practice, and two of the backfield men
had not been out before until yes-
terday.
The Ball high school team has a
game scheduled in Galveston for Sat-
urday, Oct. 28, against the Houston
Heights high school team and Coach
J. H. Couch, Jr., is putting his men
through the mill every day in an ef-
fort to weld a machine that will sub-
due the invaders from Houston. The
Ball high*team has not been selected
finally, but will .most likely be selected
in the next day or two.
The same teams that played yester-
day will meet again Saturday afternoon
at 4 o’clock, at Pirate field. Coach
Dave Dolson, of Draughon, has called
a practice for 4 o’clock this afternoon
at the Rosenberg school grounds. The
Ball high line-up for Saturday will
be as follows:
Abrams, L. E.; Campbell, L. T.; Jones,
L. G.; Pothoff, C.; Perry, R. G.; Ei-
band, R. T; Delhite, R. E.; Massen-
berg, Q. B.; Sykes, L. H. B.; Perussina,

Doing Good.
A woman can do a tremendous
amount of good when she tries. Here
is an instance and there are many such.
Mrs. F. F. Smith, Gloversville, N. Y.,
writes: “I feel it my duty to write’and
tell you what Chamberlain’s Tablets
have done for me and for many others
that I have told about them. For over
three years I have been troubled with
my liver and have been under the doc-
tor’s care most of the time. I have tried
many other medicines, but have not
found anything that helped me as much
as Chamberlain’s Tablets.” For sale by

we ever had.”
“The honorable gentleman,” replied
the premier, “knows that description
is not applicable to the home secre-
tary. Let him produce his facts.”
Mr. Healy shouted “It is idle to do
so. Let the American ambassador visit
the prison.”
“If the American ambassador will
give himself the trouble,” responded
the premier, “I shall be most happy.
I take nothing back of what I said on
my return from my visit to Ireland
with regard to the impossibility of
forcibly imposing on any part of Ire-
land a form of government lacking
their consent.”
Nationalist crices, “What are you
doing now?”
In conclusion the premier said the
/ 2.
f J.
. “Let the government withdraw mar-
tial law and put in command of the
forces in Ireland a man who has not
been connected with the unhappy
transactions of the past. Let the ad-
ministration of the defense of the
realm act be as stringent as they like,
but animated by the same spirit and
carried into effect by the same ma-
chinery as in Great Britain. Let the
500 untried prisoners be released. Let
the penal servitude prisoners be treat-
ed as political prisoners, and above all,
let the government take courage in its
own hands and trust the Irish people
once and for all by putting the home
rule act in operation, and resolutely,
and on its own responsibility, face
problems that might entail.”
Mr. Redmond declared that present
conditions were injuriously affecting
the British cause throughout America
and the dominions.
Sir Edward Duke, the chief secre-
tary of Ireland, replying to Mr. Red-
mond, said he recognized that under-
lying Mr. Redmond’s speech was a
profound desire that Ireland should
Play a part worthy of the highest tra-
ditions of her countrymen in this
great struggle. The real question, he
continued, with which this country and
Ireland were confronted was whether
when Great Britain was fighting for ex-
istence, Ireland from one cause or an-
other . should stand aside. Those
grounds of criticism which referred to
mistakes and recruiting mismanage-
ment were capable of remedy, he added
and Mr. Lloyd-George, the secretary
for war, was particularly qualified to
deal with them.

London, Oct. 19.—John Redmond yes-
terday, in introducing a resolution in
the house of commons' criticising the
system of government of Ireland, gave
notice of his intention to attack the
government.
Mr. Redmond moved his resolution
in the presence of a crowded house.
Among those in the gallery were
Baron Wimborne, the lord lieutenant
of Ireland.
The Irish leader said it was unde-
niable that the situation in Ireland
was full of menace and danger and he
contrasted this state of affairs with
the genuine enthusiasm for the allies
in Ireland at the beginning of the war.
“My object is to allay, not to in-
flame, the feeling and to show how it
is possible to save the situation,” he
continued. “I do not want to make
a party speech,, and accordingly start
my survey with the outbreak of the
War.. . i- .......... .
“From the , very first the efforts of
' the Nationalist leaders were thwarted
and snubbed, and looking back, I am
amazed at the success which, under
the circumstances, attended their ef-
forts. Ireland had 157,000 men in the
army, of whom 92,000 were Catholics,
and 10,000 in the navy. Thirty thou-
sand Nationalist volunteers had en-
listed and if it had not been for dis-
trust of Ireland in the early phases
of the war the number of volunteers
would have been trebled.”
The Nationalist leader complained
that the delay in putting the home
rule bill on the statute book gave the
opponents in Ireland an opportunity of
saying that they were about to be
cheated in their trade. The promise
made by Premier Asquith as to the
creation of an Irish army corps also
had never been acceded to, he com-
mented.
“The whole situation can only be
met by boldly grappling with the Irish
situation, continued Mr. . Redmond.
“So long as the present state of gov-
ernment exists in Ireland, so long will
the present excited and irritated pub-
lic feeling exist; so long as the Irish
people see that England, fighting for
the rights of small nationalities in
Europe,_ is maintaining by martial law
the Unionist government against the
will of the people of Ireland, no real
improvement can be hoped for.

Action to This Effect Taken by House
of Bishops.
By Associated Press.
St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 19.—Women were
denied equal rights with men in two
actions taken yesterday by the house
of bishops of the Protestant Episcopal
general convention in session here.
A proposal to permit women to sit
as delegates in the general convention
was rejected while a request from
the Rt. Rev. Logan H. Roots, bishop
of Hankow to be allowed to permit
Women to membership in his advisory
council was denied. The house sug-
gested to the bishop of Hankow, it
was stated, that he might create an
auxiliary council of women.
The proposal to give women equal
rights with men in the convention is
now on the calendar of the house of
deputies and it was pointed out to-
day’s action in the upper house does
not preclude it being discussed in -the
lower body. Since concurrence of the
two houses is. necessary, in the event
the house of deputies should approve
the proposal it will go to the house
of bishops for reconsideration.
Efforts to have the prayer of George
Washington uttered upon the occasion
of his laying down the supreme com-
mand of the federal armies
adapted and substituted for the pres-
ent prayer “for our country” in the
book of common prayer were inau-
gurated in the house of deputies by
Roland S. Morris of Philadelphia.
The house of deputies confirmed the
election of the Rev James Wise of
St. Louis as coadjuator bishop of Kan-
sas.
