Seek New Football Rule
to Regulate Protests
Special to The Telegraph
I Chicago, Nov. 13.—Coaches and ath
letic directors of "Big Nine" univer
sities will be urged to insert a rule
in the football code making it im
perative that protests against players
be made either before the opening of
the season or at a reasonable length
of time before important games.
The change in the rules, it was said
to-day. will be urged because of the
eleventh-hour protests which have re- !
suited in-tlie disquallification of sev- j
eral star players this season.

'star playeres on the eye of import
-1 ant games because protests, alleging j
j professionalism, were tiled against the j
I men. Captain Solon, of the Univer- I
Isity of Minnesota eleven, was the first j
j player in the "Big Nine" to be de
i clared ineligible this season. Full

by-products of coal distillation for the
production of coke and from crude
petroleum. Most interesting of all, as
indicating what big business thinks of
the possibilities of the industry, is the
report that the Carnegie Steel Com
pany has plans under way for the
building of the largest by-products
coke and chemical works in the world
near Pittsburgh. The plant is to con
sist of about eight hundred ovens, and
with all equipment will cost about SB,-
000,000.
Tariff Laws
What will happen to this new Amer
ican industry after the war, when the
demand for high explosive materials
has dropped, and the factories face j
European competition in the making)
| of dyestuffs, is a matter of much spec- i
I ulation here. Undoubtedly, there will |
Ibe a struggle. Our tariff iaw contains ;
jno dumping clause—that is, no pro-I
j vision to prevent European manufac- ,
turers from underselling on the Ainer- ,
| ican market to get back their trade. 1
This, it is admitted, they probably will
; do, if not prevented, and the new
1 American industry will have a hard
j enough time to light the more mature
| European one in any case. Under
these circumstances, business is lend
; ing an attentive ear to the administra
tion's remarks about changing the;
tariff laws to protect American manu- j
factureis from unfair competition af
ter the war It is also very much in- j
terested in the administration's plans
for national defense, which must nee- I
essarily include a large supply of high
explosives.
Crucible Steel is the Pittsburgh war
bride of greatest stock market fame.
Jt is an independent company of es
pecially fine equipment, making a
high grade of steel such as is used in
watcb. springs and cutlery. Owing to
the specialized nature of its product,
it suffered more from the recent de
pression than many of the other com
panies. At the time the war broke
out, its common stock was quoted at
$11.25 a share and it owed heavy
back dividends on its preferred. Not
long ago its common was selling at
$109.85 a share.
This company is reticent about its
affairs, making only annual reports
now. instead of quarterly reports, as
formerly. It is known, however, that
an immense order for rifle barrels
forms the basis of its present pros
perity. The Westinghouse Company
got the order for the rifles from Rus
sia and France, and contracted with
Crucible Steel to make the barrels.
Crucible Steel has had a hard fight
in the corporation world. About 1901
it had a period of prosperity, and
built itself a soft steel plant of its own,
to supply the material for its other
mills. The United States Steel Cor
poration laid covetous eyes upon this
plant, and offered to t#ke over Cruci
ble; but the sVnaller concern preferred
to remain independent. The steel
giant waited until hard times came,
and then it bought the soft steel plant
at about its own price. But now Cru
cible Steel has built another, under
the name of the Pittsburgh Crucible
Company, and is otherwise in highly
prosperous condition.
Westinghouse Prospering
Another great Pittsburgh concern
that is riding high on the war boom
wave Is the Westinghouse group of
factories. This is the concern, which j
NOVEMBER 13, 1915.
under George Westinghouse. one of
America's greatest manufacturing in
ventors. perfected and produced the
air brake and the signal system, which
are the bases of safety in modern rail
roading. The Westinghouse air brake
company is unique among American
corporations filling European war or
ders in that it makes no secret of the
fact. In a recent report to Its stock
holders it announced, with something
of an apology, that it had accepted
contracts for eighteen pound shrapnel,
to the amount of $17,937,000. The
work was undertaken,the directors ex
plained, because of the slump 1" rail
road business, and to avoid the loss
of !ts employes, and the distress which
unemployment would cause them.
Consideration for its employes is said
to be no pose on the part of the West
inghouse Company. It has a reputa
tion of fair dealing with labor, and
for the loyalty and skill of its men
some of whom have been in its employ
for twenty years. »
Westinghouse Company has landed
what Is said to be the largest order for
putting up a large addition to its
plant, and its stock has more than
doubled in value, since the beginning
of the war.
This Is by no means the complete
account of the boom the war has
brought to Pittsburgh. By the sublet
ting of contracts, the prosperity has
reached the smallest plants. Shops
that were considered obsolete, some
that had been closed for years, are
running at capacity. And the orders
'are still coming.

GILMORE'S PLAN
Federal League Leader Makes
Bitter Verbal Attack 011
American Head
Special to The Telegraph
Baltimore, Md., Nov. 18.—Another
attack upon Ban Johnson, president
of the American League, and the man
who is fighting- harder than any one
else against all attempts to settle the
baseball war, was issued by James A.
Gllmore, president' of the Federal
League, yesterday.
Oil more suggests that organized
baseball throw Johnson out of
indicating that it is Johnson who
interfering with the Federal League's
plans for settling its troubles. ,
"In order to be in a position to
aid in perpetuating the national gamo
on the high plane it deserves," Gll
more says, "it will be necessary for
organized baseball to do some house
cleaning. The public no longer ac
cepts Ban Johnson as a power. True,
he still holds forth as dictator for or
ganized baseball, but he has plunged
the magnates into debt and the game
into a condition from which it can
not be aroused by bluffiing and bully
ing.
"In less than a year the baseball
war has changed from one of organiz
ed baseball against the Independents
to a colossal bluff on the part of
Johnson and a very few magnates in
an attempt to keep the Federal Lea
gue from reaching the position that is
inevitable. Johnson's pride has been
hurt, and it cannot be restored."
