PEACE COMPACT MAY COME TODAY Johnson Wants Pink Slip For All Outlaw Players; Tener Favors Reinstatement If plans do not miscarry to-day, the baseball peace agreement will be signed at a meeting to be held in. New York. All agree that the plan to ab sorb the Federal League and thereby restore baseball to its former popu larity is a practical one. The peace urnlssarles who will endeavor to end the so-called war of the four leagues most concerned are as follows: American League B. B. John son, president; Charles A. Comlskey, Chicago; Colonel Jacob Ruppert, York; Benjamin Minor, Washington, ' Joseph Lannin, Boston. * National League John K. Tener, President; August Herrmann, Cincin nati; Barney Preyfuss, Pittsburgh; Harry Hempstead, New York; James Oaffney, Boston. Federal League James A. Gil more, president; Charles Weeghman, Chicago: George S. Ward, Brooklyn; Harry Sinclair. Newark, N. J.; Ed. Gwinner, of Pittsburgh, or Hanlon, of Baltimore. _ International Leagyue La. G. Barrow, president; John Farrell, sec retary of the National Association; other member not. yet selected. Western Opinions President Johnson, who has never teen of a peaceful turn of mind, is cer tain that the struggle is over and that the differences will be smoothed out in a short time. "The peace plan under consider ation is practical," he said, "and it dif fers considerably from plans which have been discussed in public." President Comiskey, who has the reputation of being one of the best lighters in the American League, for the first time has expressed a desire for peace. President Johnson in an interview that was startling in its frankness told some of the details that would be worked out when the four commit tees got together in New York, and made the declaration that the Amer ican League players who Jumped in .midseason would not be taken bafk. Tener Favors Leniency President Tener said also that he was in favor of restoring all contract jumpers from organized ranks to good standing agrJn and by inference made it appear that such an understanding had been reached between the Nation al and Federal Leapue officials at the recent secret meeting in this city. He said: "I have always believed and I now believe that no ball player should be punished unless he has made himself jnorally unfit or a real detriment to ball playing. I, for one, certainly will not vote to punish a contract breaker just because peace Is to be establish ed. It would be well for those judging him to think of the conditions and the temptations. Some of us can remem ber back to the Brotherhood days, and I am one of them." The National League executive further said that every stef> toward peace with the Federal League had hr :n carefully thought out by himself and his associates and that he ex pected no further difficulties in the negotiations so far as his league and the Independent Interests were con cerned. The National League had been for peace for a long time, he stated, and all the details had been •worked out before public announce ment was made of the probability of a harmonious settlement of the base ball strife. All that remained was for the American League to acquiesce and enter Into the agreement.

'Jumpers Part of Deal Is Fultz Ultimatum Special to The Telegraph New York, Dec. 17. —David Fultz, president of the Baseball Players' Fra ternity, issued a statement relative to the peace negotiations between the Federal League and the American and National Leagues. "Should the peace negotiations prove successful," said Fultz, "there will, of course, be a provision restoring all players who have gone to the Federals to their original status in organized ball. Any other settlement would be grossly illogical and unfair to the players. "Provision will doubtless also be made for carrying out the long term contracts signed by "layers with both organized ball and the Federal league. No declaration of peace by the mag nates can in any way affect the validity of these contracts. All adjustments should be made subject to these obli gations; otherwise magnates who buy Interests in clubs may find later that they have assumed obligations of which they were unaware at the time of the transaction. "There are also players both in or ganized ball and the Federal League who have not yet received their entire salaries for 1915. These obligations, too, should be taken into consideration in any adjustment." ACADEMY TO PLAY POTT STOW N The Harrlsburg Academy five to morrow will meet Pottstown High on Cathedral Hall floor.

Penosylvaniaß.R. 1 HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH BA*D CONCERT FROM ELECTRIC LIGHT BILII Music that ranges from the piercing wail of a taut violin string to the grumbling bass of a monster horn has been added to the remarkable achieve ments of an electrical instrument so small and so insignificant in appear ance that it could be passed by scores of times without arousing so much as a lingering glance. In the January Popular Science Monthly appears an interesting descrip tion of the latest uses to which that wonderful little instrument, the audion, has been lately put. The audion, it will he remembered, is the invention that made possible the recent talks by wire less telephone from Washington to Honolulu. The audion is a small instrument which closely resembles an ordinary electric lamp bulb in appearance. In side the bulb are two small electrodes which are connected to the other ap paratus in such a manner that a perfect balance, electrically speaking, Is main tained between them. The disturbing of this balance may be made to perform chances.

With the audion It is quite possible to Imitate the mellowest tones of a Stradl varius violin, but more Interesting still. It Is possible to create music of a tone and timbre that no one In this world has ever heard before. No less strange than the quality of the music Is the means by which it is obtained. The variations produced in an electrical circuit by inserting a lead pencil line drawn on paper will cover not only the complete octave, but will Include the most Infinite shadings in tone. Dr. Lee DeForest, the discoverer of this type of electrical music, claims that with an arrangement of four or five bulbs and suitable adjusting ap paratus and keys similar to those of a piano keyboard, he can easily obtain notes ranging in pitch through as many octaves as are desired and a tone qual ity identical with that of all musical instruments now in use as well as qualities never before produced. DECEMBER 17,1915. I'OISONIXU. DEAFNESS, DEATH IS PRICK OF A DERBY HAT When you pay $5 for your fine derby hat do not imagine you have paid the price of the hat, according to A. M. Jungmann in the January Popular Sci ence Monthly. The real price is paid by the unfortunate victims of "hatters' shakes" who contract mercurial poison ing while engaged In preparing the fur and making it Into your hat. There are many trades which are dirty and hazardous, but Jt would be difficult to find one as objectionable as the hatters' fur trade. From the moment the fur receives a scrubbing with a so lution of nitrate of mercury until the hat is finally completed, mercuriallsm Is a constant menace to the workers. Three hundred and fifty employes of the hatters' fur trade were examined Shermans? V": |,MAN^7 ijs^uspsiis V ARMY J V ARMY J V ARMY 3 I JOSEPH M.

Of these 14 per cent, were In disputably suffering from niercurlallsm. Many suffer violent tremors of the hands, face and tongue. Unfortunately most of the workers fall to realize the danger of their occupation, and it is ex ceedingly difficult to get tliem to ob serve the first principles of self-protec tion against the hazards of the trade. In some instances it was found that the employer had to lock the carrotlng rooms and the'drying rooms at noon time to prevent the employes from eat ing their lunches there. The constant breathing of dust and fur-laden atmosphere affects the nose, throat and lungs of the workers. This could be obviated by sweeping after hours or by the employment of a vacu um device.
