THE MORNING OREGOXIAN. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1914. 11 DROP III BASEBALL SALARIES IS NEAR Matty Predicts Cut When Fed erals and Other Major Ci Leagues Make Peace. JUMPERS NOT LUCKY ONES Star Pitcher Believes Men AY ho Got Two -or Three-Year Contracts Minus Ten-Day Clause From Old Clubs "Were Wise. Bf CHRISTY MATHEWSOK, , The New York Giant- Star Pitcher. NEW YORK. Oct. 26. (Special.) Now that there la a general tendency toward peace in baseball, the players can look for a drop in salaries. "War time prices tor talent do not prevail long when there is no competition. In my opinion, the wise players were the ones who signed contracts tor two or three years with the clubs of or ganized baseball without any ten-day release clauses in them. They are bound -to receive their salaries for the term of their contracts, whether peace is made or not, and, as I get it, peace is liable to be made at any minute. As a matter of fact, the public gen erally overestimates what ballplayers make. Before the Federal League ap peared as a competitor for patronage, the players in both big leagues who were getting more than J5000 each a season could have been counted on the lingers of two hands. Lucky Ones Not Jumpers. Of course, the players made the most of their opportunity when the Federals began bidding against the older leagues for stars. If peace results this Winter, as it probably will, those who jumped may find themselves far out in the cold. Club-owners In organized Tjaseball have been awaiting an op portunity to punish the deserters, as they call them. Only one club in the two big leagues came through the war without a great ly increased payroll. I do not care to mention the name of this team, but the explanation made to me by a player on the club as to why he and his fel lows could not draw more money was amusing. ' "They -Understand." " "You see," said the manager," ac cording to this player, "I would be glad to pay you boys more money if the club could afford it. But it isn't as if the team was in New York, where they can afford to pay big money for play ers. We don't take it in at the gate here. I know you boys will understand.'- And we all do," my informant added, naively. This manager is certainly a financier and a wizard with "the boys." But several clubs in organized base liall lost money last season. The Bos ton Nationals were financial winners naturally, but the team was running far behind its expenses up to July, when Gaffney stood to lose several thousand dollars on the season. ' Bnn Only High-Priced Star. An advantage that the Boston club nad over several others was that it did not carry any high-priced stars with the exception of Evers. John Kvers was the biggest individ ual winner among the players on the reason, making between $30,000 and $40,000. There is an Interesting incident in connection with Evers' successful year. After Kvers had been turned out of the Chicago club last AVinter and thereby made a free agent. Stallings advised Gaffney to sign him. The Fed eral League promoters were hot after "Johnny." and Tinker was the leading campaigner. Gaffney talked first. "I can't accept now," replied "John ny," "because I have promised 'Joe' that I would listen to the Federals' talk before I did anything." "That is satisfactory to me," replied Gaffney. "Just tell me that you won't agree to terms with them until you have had another talk with me." 15,000 a Year Offered. Evers hustled up to the Knicker bocker Hotel, in New York, where the Federals were holding forth, from the Waldorf. They had a pile of 15 1000 "bills on the table. Evers was offered $15,000 a year for three years and he was to get the first season's salary in advance. It was right-there in cash for him to take with him. Tinker, Knabe. Gilmore and the rest were wav ing the money and contract in front of him. "I can't do it, 'Joe, " said Evers to Tinker. "I've promised Gaffney that I would give him another chance." ."The money will be waiting for you when yqu come back," Teplied Tinker, confidently. Then it was that Evers was offered y Gaffney 10.000 a year for three years, and a bonus of $2jj,000 for sign ing. He accepted. NEWSPAPERS LOSE BY WAR statement Shows Fallacy of Idea That Press Slakes lpofit. CHICAGO. Oct 22. It is assumed by many people that newspapers thrive on -war. The news is apt to be thrilling of a sort which readers buy mast eager ly. ine occasions lor extras are many. The circulation of the newspapers is greatly Increased, and with this is thought to go along a lot of blessings that swell the bank accounts of the owners of newspapers. Therefore war Is believed to be popular 'with news papers and to be encouraged by them; This idea, however, is far from cor rect, as all know who are- convorsant with the newspaper business. That the people may know exactly the facts, Frank B. Xoyes, editor of the Wash ington t-tar and president of the Asso ciated, Press, has prepared a statement which the Chamber of Commerce of the X'nited States of America, of which John H. Fuhey, of Boston, is president, has made public. "There is. perhaps," says Mr. Noyes. "no popular misunderstanding more widespread than is found in the current belief that a great war or other impor tant happening that causes an in creased sale of newspapers is profita ble to newspaper owners. The funda mental error is so grotesque to a news paper publisher as to cause the humor of it to afford some solace to him if the hard actualities trouble him sorely. "The simple fact is that the news paper is probably a heavier financial sufferer in the business world through war than any save those whose prop erty is physically destroved bv it. On this side of the water the burden of the present European war is laid heav lust on newspaper publishers of all our business men. This is so because of tacts mat ere easy to understand. "The white paper for papers costs more man me wholesale selliner nrlce. There is a loss on every copy sold and ... the greater the excitement the more 'extras' Issued, the greater the loss. In ordinary times this loss is made up by advertising receipts. It is obvious, however, that nothing Is received for the advertising in this additional and temporary 'circulation. The sad re verse Is true. In all times of excite ment advertising diminishes there are individual exceptions, of course, but they are sporadic and only prove the rule. "If this measured the extent of the disaster that war brings to the news papers they would even then be some what worse off than the average busi ness concern, for, with diminished ad vertising earnings, they would have Increased circulation losses. "The tale of woe of the newspapers has only begun, however. The usual business concern, when trade is bad, whether from war or whatever the cause of the depression may be, trims its sails for the storm, curtails the working force, reduces the output. War means to the newspaper, 'on the con trary, an immediate and tremendous increase to its cost of production. ' "Take the Associated Press, for ex ample. This is a co-operative and nonprofit-making organization of some 900 newspapers, the purpose of which is to facilitate the exchange of news be tween its members and the collection of original news for their joint benefit. In times of peace it maintains news bureaus In all the world centers of news and the cost of its operations runs annually to an enormous sum. The little flurry of the .Spanish-American war, however, cost the Associated Press $275,000 in addition to its normal expenses. - "In preparation for the proverbial 'rainy day' which with the Associated Press is war an emergency fund of $400,000 had been accumulated. Since the latter part of July this has been eaten into at an appalling rate, for the Associated Press must expand its corps of correspondents at all news points from London to Tokio. must multiply its cable expenditures by five or by 10 if the censors graciously permit. "As with the Associated Press, so with individual newspapers, large or small. The maintaining of editorial and mechanical forces during unusual hours to provide for the prompt publi cations of declarations of war and great battles alone amounts to a heavy bur den, i "It is doubtful whether any of the publishers of the great newspapers can even now refrain from either tears or bad language when they think of the orgy of expense in which they were in volved during the Spanish-American war. The ordinary profits of the most prosperous vanish into thin air and the less fortunately placed found them selves facing enormous deficits. "Harrowing as -that recollection has been, it will seem like a rosy dream if the present Hi tanic conflict continues for a considerable time and the news papers keep up their expenditures on the scale of August and September. It may well be that all newspaper owners will be 'praying for a censor who will forbid any reference to the war to be cabled." MOVE SAVES SUGAR PRICE England Corners Supply and lts Out Amounts at Fixed Kate. LONIX)Nr. Oct. 22. Sugar. w"iich at one time appeared to be a commodity likely to soar in price through the wr, has often shaken Ministries. Thus, for instance, wrote Disraeli in his "Life of Bentinck": "Sugar was an article of colored production which had been em barrassing. If not fatal, to many gov ernments. Strange that a manufacture which charms infancy and soothes old age should so frequently occasion po litical disaster." And one recalls an occasion when Pitt opened an oration with: "Sugar. Mr. Speaker," and. seeing amusement on the faces of his hearers, swei'.ed with indignation and repeated the word three times with emphasis enough to quell the house. Then he added contemptuously, "Who will laugh at sugar now?" Vast quantities of sugar are con sumed in this country, and most of it comes from the Continent. Anticipating a serious dislocation of the trade ow ing to the war, the" government ap pointed a royal commission to inquire into tne tacts ant endowed with full power to act. The commission acted with extraordinary promptitude and efficiency. It checked the speculation for a large rise in the price of sugar; it cornered tne whole available sup ply, and it sold to the refiners at i fixed price with a proviso that they in turn should sell to the retailers at mod erate prices, definitely determined. This bold piece of state socialism signally was successful. GERMANS TO GIVE SCRIP English Export Merchants Fear They Will Not Get Money. LONDON, Oct. 22. German firms owing money to Bradford export mer chants have intimated they are invest ing the amounts due . in the German war loan and will send the scrip to Bradford as payment for trade debts. The export merchants in Bradford and that district require 18,760,000 from Germany and Austria, and it urged that the government should take action. Recently, a clearing-house was sug gested to deal with liabilities and as sets as between Germany and Great Britain. This action by German trad ers, it is contended, should set aside any scruples against such a plan. Ger man traders have also intimated that they will not respect any contracts made before the war. Up to the pres ent Bradford merchants have believed that debts would be paid and contracts respected- At a private meeting of. the council of the Chamber of Commerce it was recommended that if the government Is willing to make advances against approved foreign trade debts, such ad vance should be up to 75 per cent of the total. Returns showed that trad ers in Bradford and district want about 130,000,000 from the Continent of Eu rope, tne united States and some states in South America. TETANUS LAID TO SHELLS Gangrene Results From "Wounds From Shrapnel, Too, Says Surgeon. PARIS. Oct. 24. Reference has been made to the number of cases of tetanus and gangrene which have occurred among the wounded it the war. This Is unavoidable, and is due partly to Jong exposure ot wounded men in the trenches and partly to the number of wounds caused by shrapnel. This im portant question formed the subject of discussions at a meeting of the Acad emy of bcience. Dr. Delorme, principal medical . In spector oi tne torces in tne Held, gave an account of'the sanitary condition of the army and of the measures taken to combat gangrene and tetanus. He said the sanitary state of the army is as good as can be hoped. There are few sick, perhaps even less than in times of peace. As for the wounded, they are being tended with wonderful devotion. If some cannot be picked up until lone alter tney nave oeen wound ed. responsibility rests with those who are making use of barbarous methods of warfare. The "morale" of the wound ed is perfect. Dr. Delorme said that in ease sof shell wounds which had been Inflicted some hours previously," antiseptic treatment and. If necessary, imputa tion shdVild be carried out at the front. in order to prevent the possibility of gangrene and tetanus. Swedish Iron ore deposits are estimated at 1.900.000 tons. In 1913 over 44O.000 tons were exported, mainly to K'ncland and I uermany. AIR RAID iT LIKELY British Writer Says Risk Too High to Make It Pay. CRAFT'S TRIP DANGEROUS Zeppelin "Would Be Easy Mark, for Gunners but Its Work. "Would Be Effective Over Fleet at Sea In War, He Thinks. - LONDON, Oci. 22. An interesting ar ticle on "The Zeppelin Menace" is con tributed to The World by "Aerophile." "The possibilities and the limitations of these craft," says the writer, "are fairly well known, but not so their nu merical strength. W can, however, take it that at the moment of the out break of war there were not less than 12 jior more than 20 Zeppelins ready for service. Construction la Expensive. "The construction and assembling of a Zeppelin is a long and costly affair. I believe I am right in saying that none of those which are now actually in service took less than 14 months to build. The cost of the ship is roughly J400.000. "Should the Germans send such an airship to these shores they would not do so without the hope of Its safe re turn unless the moral or effective dam age done compensated them for the loss of so valuable an engine of war. It is known that at most two tons of explosives can be carried, and that (for reasons of equilibrium) not more than about a quarter of a ton can be discharged at one time. Recent experi ence has shown that these bombs weigh some six hundredweight each, so that an airship passing over London would be able to loose off at most seven or eight projectiles before reducing itself to a state of unwieldly vulnerability. The Zeppelin marksmanship, as dem onstrated hitherto, hardly would make It worth the enemy's while to lose one of its few airships in the hope of hit ting anything realty worth while, for that airship would never return to Ger many. Ship Would Be Easy Mark. "The shortest distance it would have to travel is more than 600 miles. Given a mean speed of 42 miles per hour (a generous estimate for a ship prepared for such an undertaking more than 14 hours would be occupied in the jour ney), during the whole of which time the airship never could rise out of gun shot range (let alone aeroplane attack). nor could it count on 14 hours of invisi bility. "Thus it is that, should a Zeppelin succeed in its full misison of bomb dropping in these islands the British fleet and air stations would have no difficulty in .making it pay the full price of its temerity. "This being so, it cannot be believed that an airship attack on England dur ing the present war comes within the pale of practical warfare. The Germans are well aware that their limited air fleet can render them greater service in their crusade of attrition of the Brit ish fleet in the North Sea than by any bomb-dropping enterprise, and it is here that the real Zevpelln menace if there be any menace will be found." WASP WAISJIS TO GO Athletics Makes Venus de Milos of Women Now. NEW YORK, Oct. 22. The de Milo figure arid the passing of the wasp .waist amongr women, which has come with physical exercise, mean that she will be a. new creature physically and a much improved one, says Xr. Watson Lv. Savagre. of the Savage Gymnasium, In this city. A cable message from Paris received not long ago quoted Dr. Louis Brocq as saying that the woman of today, be cause of her attempt at emancipation and increasing mental effort, was be coming physcially an inferior being, hollow chested and with rounded back. Dr. Savage says that this is not so, particularly with the American wom en, who have the most and the best kind of exercise. "It ia more likely to be true of the French girl than of others." said Vr. Savage. "The French, woman impresses e as being more .feminine in a way. She does not take up sports as the American and English women do. The Frenchman does not, for that matter. t plays golf and tennis a little now. but fencing is the National sport. You go into the parks and recreation places In trance and you will not see the people playing games; they are sitting around ana eating. A Tencn woman goes to the races and now eha is doing more with fencing. It was a French girl who took the French championship for fencing, jno; I believe that was reallv one of my Pittsburg girls who was at school in France. A 14-year-old French girl took the International tennis championship the other day, but that was phenomenal, and I don't know how It happened. "You always think of the French girl as being dressed up. You don't think of her as wearing comfortable clothes for sports as you do the Kng lish and the American girls. And In Kngland it is really only the upper class girls who do much with sports. The German girl gets her exercise In different way- through hard work. which makes her a heavier and a coars er type. The German, with those of some other nations in the lower classes, works In the fields., I should not won der if the Kaiser would finally call upon some of those women to help him out in the battlefield. We may hear o a regiment of Amazons yet. "It has been only recently that the German women have been taking up gymnastics tnat nave been hitherto only for the men. The Turners are now beginning to open classes for wom en, and they are groins; into them. That means a great change. The Turners are going through a period of transition. The Americans won't stand for the old heavy athletics: they want more games. and the younger men are getting out of the older organizations. "The American woman Is more active, vigorous and energetic now than at any time in my 30 years' experience. I don't know what the actual change in physical proportions Is, though they have records of -them in the women's colleges. And I don't know as the women have changed much more than the men. We do so much preventive work In both medicine and gymnastics that It has made a better race. And !t is throwing the physicians out of busi ness. Not half of those who go through the medical colleges go into the pro fession. A doctor who Is the right kind should never think of money in con nection with his work, and his best work is of a kind to throw him out of business. The same preventive work goea on in th gymnasium. We are taking up gymnasium work more and there were never so many students of gymnastic work preparing themselves for teaching as this Fall. "Our children begin with their danc ing and games in the kindergarten, form their athlef) leagues, and the training goes onlrn high school and college.

I never did believe there was any anatomical reason why a girl couldn't throw a ball, and I don't believe it now. I saw it stated In the papers the other day that some girl had made a wonderful heave of 160 feet. There are four" or five of our girls who can throw 180 feet. You can see the change in the girls' figures from this kind of exercise. They have grown large around the waist within the last 10 years. There are no more wasp waists; we have the Venus de Milo fig ures, and it means better women. "The suffragists might go into a bat tle now and fight for what tbey want, but I don't believe they will do that. I don't think we shall have women sol diers.

Some women like to take up boxing, but it is neces sary to be careful in boxing with them.

It was not because she could not throw, but back of her was the training of generations.

They never have the practice In throwing that a boy does, for as a little fellow walking along a country road he is continually picking up stones to throw at & cow or something else, and a girl will hardly lo that.

A man no longer admires the delicate, white faced woman, he likes a woman who is vigorous and healthy, with a brown face, and women like to please and be admired. Then the American men are athletic, and they ape the men. There is. no first-class school now which doas not pay attention to athletics, and the directors of the gymnasiums scour Eu rope for new features. The result Is that we have-a broad system in this country.. "Athletics no longer count for mus cles. We try to get at the nervous sys tem beneath the muscles. We no longer measure muscles, except for the psy chological effect. There naturally is an increased development of muscle with exercise, but we measure it only for the encouragement of the timid worker. "One great value of exercise is to get the poisonous secretions out of the system.

All the museums ot Paris have been closed since the beginning- of the war, and, as far as possible. trie cniei treasures nave been deposit ea in iron cases in vaults, a precaution, that has proved to have been only too well advised. One of the aeroplanes that flew over this city dropped a bomb when it was Immediately above the Louvre, but for tunately the aviator did not allow suf ficently for his forward velocity, and so the explosive fell Into' the Seine close by. The BIbliotheque Natlonale had a still narrower escape, which was recounted by one of the librarians. With three others, he saw one of the aerial visitors drop a bomb when over the manuscript room, and the missile only missed the buildlne; by 13 yards. This aviator afterwards was chased and caught by one of the Frenoh air patrol, and was found to be a man who had lived for years quite near the famous library, showing; that the at tack on the unique collection of valu able manuscripts was not accidental. ve m PORTLAND ABSTRACTS OF TITLE.

WADHAMS ft SOUTH HEEDS BANKS Washingtonian Writes of Pos sibilities of Trade. CREDITS ARE NECESSARY Hoarding of Gold in Europe" Makes Opportunity for American Fin ancial Men to Organize for Own Benefit. WASH1NGTON, Oct. 22. Dr. W. E. Aug'iinbaugh, a Washingtonian with 20 years' experience In business in Cen tral and South America, has prepared a series of articles on the vast impor tance of the opportunities for the ex tension of the foreign trade of the United States which have been brought about by the European war. The first of these articles draws at tention to details of these opportuni ties!, particularly In relation to the es tablishment of credits in Latin Amer ican countries by exporting itrms of the United States. Dr. Aughinbaugh regards as of prime importance for United States firms de siriner to increase their export business to Latin America the question of bank ing facilities. Before the war, he says, practically every nation of Europe had branch banks scattered In favorable lo cations all over the world, especially lo the large trade centers, and he deems it Important that bankers and business men of the United States should at once extend their banking facilities In Latin America, if they hope to captura the trade that awaits them. Dr. Aughinbaugh left Washington to engage in business in South and Cen tral America a number of years ago and has since spent about halt his time in the United States. He is known among Americans who do business with South and Central America as one hav ing a wide knowledge of the conditions he describes, and his views are ex pected to attract wide attention. laited States Hssdlespprd. In his first article in Leslie's Weekly he says in part: "The United States, with the excep tion of Its' colonies and in Mexico, Cuba and Panama, is without financial repre sentation of the right kind abroad.
