CHICAGO, Oct. 19.—Garry Herrmann, acting as spokesman for the powers of organized baseball, has submitted a definite offer of peace to the Federal league. What the proposition was is not known, but there seems a good chanoe that it will be acceptable to the independents. The truce term* •were placed before President WeesJh-*v-than, of the Tinx, last week in New

York, when he was called east by Herrmann for that purpose. Action on the treaty will be taken by the Federals at their fall meeting, which will be held at New York on Friday and Saturday.

Weeghman was inclined to repent yesterday after his explosion of Saturday night when, in the heat of anger, he made known the fact that he had been hob-nobbing with the rulers of O. B. He did not retract anything he had said regarding the meeting, but seemed .sorry that he had allowed himself to talk of the matter after promising Herrmann he would keep silence.

Asked to Remain Silent.

It was in explaining his meeting with Herrmann that Weeghman let slip the news that O. B. had arranged terms under which it stands ready to welcome the Federals to its ranks. "Herrmann asked me to keep absolute silence regarding the meeting," Weeghman said. "When we finished our discussion Garry remarked: 'Nothing may come of this proposition, and it will be better for alii parties concerned if the matter is kept from the newspapers. If our plan goes through it will be -time enough then to give out the news.

If it falls, none of us will be helped any by letting the public know we have been trying to come to terms.' "Herrmann acted as representative of organized baseball and I as the spokesman for the Federal league. There

Sees $18,000 Go Up Smoke

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.—Now that the National league people In Pittsburgh admit that Edward Konetchy, the former Cardinal, has gone over to the Federal league, a man closely connected with the Pittsburgh Pirates said today that because of the fact that President Dreyfuss did not want the general public to think that he was willing to aid the New York Giants in their efforts to win a fourth straight pennant, he lost the sum of $18,000, and incidentally the New York club was saved from losing that much money In other words, McGraw offered $18,000 for "Koney," planning to

were several American and National league magnates around the Waldorf hotel, where we held the conference, but I did not converse with them. Gilmore, Walker, Fielder Jones, the Wards and other Federal leaguers also were on hand, but were not in the conference. Herrmann and I went over the matter together, and when we promised to keep silence regarding the meeting it was understood that we also were speaking for the other members of our leagues.

Blames Johnson tor "teak." "Ban Johnson undoubtedly knew of the conference, and knew that it was Herrmann who called me to New York. When Herrmann promised to keep the matter quiet I understood he spoke for Johnson as well as for the magnates who were In New York at the time. Therefore I felt that when Johnson stated I had sought the interview with Herrmann he broke the promise of silence. Otherwise I never would have told of my part in that peace meeting."

If the Feds fall to come to terms with organized baseball, Weeghman will have to strengthen his team considerably to make a bid for the pennant next year. He said yesterday that the other Fed clubs have added so many major leaguers to their ranks in the last month that his team now looks like the weakest one in the league. He expects to land at least half a dozen stars if he is forced to start another season on a war basis. He intimated yesterday that he has six players already lined up, but is not ready to sign them yet.

He stands and waits before the gates are opened at the park, all through the night he awaits the light that casts 1.way the dark. With drawn face he holds his place and slowly wends his way toward the precious place where he will face the heroes of the day. And when at last the gates are passed and he is in a seat, he soon regrets the foolish bets he made about defeat. The game is slow and he seems to know that Jones is on the "bum," for you can hear him shout, "Put 'im out! He's nothin' but a rum!" He shouts aloud unto the crowd advice upon the game. His phrases strange are bound to change, for he never thinks the same. But he's a part of life and throughout the strife of athletes on the field, you'll find him there to rent the air with thoughts that are revealed.

the ilnal sessions and were given a hard fight by the visiting team. Michigan defeated the Michigan Aggies, 3 to 0, in a stubbornly fought battle, which was won in the last quarter as the result of a drop kick by Splawn, but Coach Yost paid dearly for the victory. Tommy Hughitt, one of the best quarterbacks Michigan has had in recent years, suffered injuries which may keep him out of the game for the remainder of the season. He i« certain to be absent when the Wolverines' all important game with Harvard is staged at Cambridge on October 31.

Hughitt has been one of the mainstays of the team. He was a veteran of two years' experience, is a cool and collected player, and uses rare Judgment in the selection of plays. He is a shifty man in the open and his defensive qualifications are just as valuable as his offensive ability.

Michigan should not be condemned too severely for Its showing in this game. The Aggies, it will be remembered, were one of the claimants of the western title last year. They won from Michigan and Wisconsin and defeated other teams of standing. Coach Macklin's eleven is practically a veteran One, there being nine members of last year's aggregation on the team. The Wolverines should be praised instead of criticised for not being able to win by a large score, for they met one of the strongest teams that ever represented the agricultural institution.

MICHIGAN.

ANN ARBOR, Mich., Oct. 19.—Michi gan football fans are gloomy following the loss of Quarter Back Hughitt in the Aggie game Saturday and the announcement that Right Half Back Gait the only other backfleld regular, would be unable to play this fall. Coach Yost now has only two regulars of last season. Of the pair, Captain Raynsford has been shifted to center, so Lyons at right end is the only regular of last year who is left at his old position.

Gait's bad knee will keep him out all season but Hughitt's physician today declared the quarter back might be able to get Into the game. It is certain, however, that the brilliant little field general whose strategy defeated the Aggies will be out of the Harvard game. His elbow Is dislocated and he would be able to do little but call signals and pass the ball were he allowed to go back into the game.

Preparations for Syracuse will begin today, Yost having four days to get ready for the Orangemen. The Wolverines will leave Thursday night for the salt city.

PURDUE.

LAFAYETTE, Ind., Oct. 19.—Although the defeat by Wisconsin was disheartening, the Purdue eleven will undertake to improve its offense and stiffen its defense to successfully cope with Chicago next Saturday. Upon Its arrival home from Madison Sunday afternoon the team was met by 600 students. Captain O'Brien said luck broke for the Badgers all the way through. Wisconsin's first touch down was the result of a fluke when Pultz, Purdue's new quarter back, fumbled. Purdue's defense was superb practically all through the game. The Boilermakers will tackle the Maroons in a do-or-die spirit, hopeful of their ability to upset traditions by defeating Chicago and atoning for their defeat at the hands of Juneau's men.

INDIANA.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Oct. 19.—Indiana came out of the Northwestern game in good shape. Winters and Whitaker, who had been limping all week, and who did not get to scrim/mage hardly any last week, did not get any setbacks from the punishment they received Saturday and will be in the practices every r.ight this week.

The crimson team began to exhibit marked improvement last week and each succeeding night the showing it made against the freshmen in scrimmage was evidence that the players were beginning to master the game as

He is determined that thoy shall be thoroughly grounded in the elements, and after that it will be time enough to talk about teaching them trick plays. The victory over the purple by such an overwhelming score has restored confidence in ©very man on the squad.

Assistant Coach Berndt, who saw the Ncrthwestern-Chicago game two weeks ago, says Murphy's men played as good against Indiana as they did against the Maroons. The Indiana rooters believe the team would now have no trouble in holding the Stagg warriors to a low score.

"'When Dreams Come True," a musical comedy of youth, by Philip Bartholomae and Silvio Hein, now In its third year of success, comes to the Grand for two performances next Thursday.

Joseph Santley, youthful and decidedly popular, has the principal role of Kean Hedges, a young American boy who is forced to return home from Paris by way of the steerage Just because his irate father cut oft his allowance, following the son's escapade with & French dancer. Others in tho coompany include Cathryn Rowe Palmer, Mignon McGibeny, Ruth Randall, Ada Sterling, Josephine Kernell, Richard Taber, Edward Hume, Clyde Hunnewell, Frank Russell, Otto Schrader, and Saranoff, the Rusian violinist. "When Dreams Come True" is a combination of melodrama, farce, music and dancing, with the latter element well to the fore through Mr. Santley's exhibitions of modern steps, among them many of his own creation. In fact, the entertainment might be termed a carnival of modern dancing, so numerous are the special terpsichorean features.

The play is In three acts and four scenes, with the first act showing the Btterage deck of a modern ocean liner at sea. The production as a whole is ol&borate and colorful, and peopled with an unusually attractive chorus of boys

and girls who fairly radiate youth. The music, too, by Silvio Hein,- is of the light, whistleable variety with which this composer had been identified through such popular successes as "Nancy Brown," "A Matinee Idol," "The Yankee Girl," etc.

Heftner, chairman of the committee on the sale of tickets for the enlarged edition of "Twenty-five Minutes From Terre Haute," to be presented by the Elks next month, selected his corps of assistants yesterday.
