New York, Oct. 3.—Will this
winter see the end of the base-
iball war? Many men high in
basebaH—men close to the ones
who dictate in both the Ameri-
can and National leagues—say
that it will.
Just how the windup of this
conflict will be brought about,
though, is a much mooted ques-
tion. Out of the many opinions
advanced by the ones supposed
to know, one fact stands out
very prominently. That is the
fact when the time for Settle-
ment comes—when Organized
baseball opens its arms and takes
the young Federal league into
