WILSON, TO FIGHT (Continued fioni page one) the fall congressional campaign!. Rut a few democrats are standing lichind Chamberlain in hig effort to improve what ho believes to be a fntil- 1v situation in the war department. These, with the vitunl solid republi can strength, will make the fight for control of the senate for or against President Wilson tho most dramatic' in its history. Tho battle will open when tho sen lite meets Thursday. Senator Chamber lain will carry his issue to opponents of the measure immediately by calling up the war cabinet bill for second read iug ami reference to committee. Administration forces are "loaded" for Cliamhci lain. They will demand B roll call on Henntur Swnnson's motion to refer the bill to the naval commit tee as well as to the military affairs .committee. Swnnsnnj's (argument was that as the proposed wjtr cabinet would have control of naval, as well is military plans, the navy committee ought to pass on the bill. Senators standing with the admin istration Bgniust tho bill made no se cret of the fact Unit Swnnson's move was merely the first in a series de signed to bent the bill.

Alreatly there is talk of compromis ing the fight by accepting the direct or of munitions, in return for the de feat of tho war cabinet measure. The director of munitions would prove much less objectionable to the admin istration becauso he would have au thority only over purchasing and pro duction of supplies. Even that much upsetting by congress of the present plans of the war department will not bo accepted, however, except to pre vent enactment of the war cabinet bill Republican leaders today were plan ning a caucus to decide now they will vote on the war cabinet and munitions director bills. emocrats probably will have a similar session. Some congres sional lenders saw the danger of the majority party being forced to accept one or both bills purely from tho stand point of "safety first." The political fires are now raging. Senator Penrose has announced ho will make a speech shviiiir up denocr(itic. mistakes 'in the conduct of the war- Other repub licans arc considering like speeches. When Penrose does speak he will get as vigorous an nuswer as he gave Stone's attack. The partisan flames are likelv to spread to tho house, many of whose members listened to Stone and Penrose There was no denying the fact to lay that in both houses politics is no longer under control.

KNITTING DAY HAY BE SEASONS FEATURE Weeghman Plans to Substitute This for Former "Ladiesy" Chicago, Jan. 22. President Weegh man intimated today that "knitting day" may be a weekly feature at the Cub park next summer. : The National league passed a rule last summer, doing away with "ladies day." The American league refused to follow suit and the older circuit lost its female boosters. Weeghman is in favor 'of restoring the free day, calling it "knitting day", instead of "iadies day. ' ' By H. O. Hamilton (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Jan. 22. The step taken by the American association to elimin ate use of ' the spitball is destined to blaze a path of reform in baseball. Tho aims of Gov. John K. Tencr, president of the National league; Ban Johnson, president of tho American league, and other leaders in the game may vet be arrived at in governing pitchers. uovernor Tener was one of tho first to take a stand against the use of the spitball. A pitcher himself, he held that it not only was au unnecessary subter fuge, but was incauitary and disgusting to many spectators. Ban Johnson ha3 relieved himself of practically the same sentiments. There are, in fact, only a few magnates who really believe the delivery should be allowed. , American association pitchers will be watched with interest during the com ing Beason. American association bat ting records also will come in for close scrutiny, for it is the contention of foes of the spitball that tho delivery in terferes with free batting, something a Ian wants to see when he pays for entrance to a ball game. Prices paid for ball players in recent days put to shamo previous attempts to get records in high sums. It used to be that $5,000 was a tremendous price to pay for a ball player. There was a time not so long ago when Dan Tipple and other comers were referred to as beau ties, with the amount of their purchase hung onto the front end. And now. Oh, boy! Grover Cleveland Alexander was just sold for the price of a day's battling in Europe. Wally Schang and some of his co-laborers in the baseball field just changed hands for a sum that Jess Willard would not sneeze at. And a magnate who offers less than a fortune nowadays for a ball player is in the piker class.

The International Trap Shooting association's grand Am erican handicap tournament will be held hero about August 5 to 9, inclusive at the South Shore country club.

Before the day is over St. Louis American league bugs fully expect to see tho passiiig of Derrill Pratt, second baseman, to the New York Yankees. Milter Huggins of the Yankees arrived today prepared to go tho limit to meet the Browns re quirements for an exchange of a back stop, pitcher and an infielder for Pratt. There isn't the faintest shadow of a doubt that the American soldier is the biggest thing in the American heart And nowhere is it more evident than in sports. Baseball is practically sacrificing everything to give baseball to training camps next spring. The Reds may, in ract, do their spring training at vjamp Sheridan, Ala., instead of going to Shreveport, as in the past. The Braves and Yankees, who have been playing a schedule of games every spring on their way north from Georgia, are booking all training camps on the way tor this year. Moro ball players are going to be in the National army before spring rolls around. And a great many of them are going to be big leaguers. Baseball should get its big push in the army along with other pushes. Baseball,' in fact, should emerge from the big game more staunch than ever in the hearts of American sport lovers. jOi Hotel 5tftmncis O O. Jk-'l If 1 i-'J!.- "rd-'j Out in The Third.

If Bosses Kickey and Hendricks can pull sufficient wires to get a batch of ball players in exchange for the young star it is believed they might be induced to do it.

Carson's resignation, he announced, was entirely due to his feeling that he should be free to participate in the Irish settlement and not because of any dissatisfaction or disagreement with Ihis colleagues in the conduct of the war.

Little Outside Buying In Wall Street New York, Jan. 22 The New York Evening Sun financial review today said: Fundamental conditions in today s stock market were not materially changed. Outside buying by means of the wires was largely curtailed by in clement weather. With its eves on Washington and Vienna, Wall Street was disposed to mark time and await events.
