ARMY AND NAVY MAY
SETTLE DIFFERENCES
Recent Conferences Make It Likely That There Will
Be Agreement as to Playing of Annual
Game Between Two Institutions.
Annapolis. August 17.?Itocent con
? <>f Hie athletic representatives
iIh L'nited Status Naval and Mill
t;?r > At iili'iuics have made it much

j,'... osed thai tli? game be played
,Vcv York or that i; alternate be
;wt Annapolis and West "oint, play
i!: this year at West Point, as the
la:- .. i >? undei this arrangement was
pla>cd at Annapolis. The representa
tives of the Naval Academy consider
that X<? v. York would entail too great
a Jou:nt-> upon them, while neither
Atii-apuiis nor West Point has the
V oper acconimodiitions to take care
? f the great crowd that would attend
the game.
West Point is willing to continue to
plav the game on Frar.itiin Field.
P'iilanc-lphia, if a better arrangement
of merits can lie made. The Army re
ceived about $,000 tickets last season,
and the same has been offered them
this year. It is stated that tin* Army
? an p<%t along with this number, as
the Navy <Ioes also, but that it com
plaints tliat so many of the seats are
far down tin field that a great many
"Ulcers and members of their families
do not have satisfactory locations for
watching the game. It Is believed tliat
if a bettor arrangement can be made
the Army will withdraw itH objections
to Franklin Field.
On the other hand, the Navy, while
it maintains its position as to a change
of location, would probably concede
the Army's demands rather than give
up the game. In view of the concilia
tory spirit in which the representatives
are meeting each other there is a
very groat probability that an agree
ment will be reached. Hoth sides de
sire to roach an agreemnt which will
stand until changed and cover the time
and place of playing future games, so
th.it all misunderstandings lfrlll be
avoided.
Naval people feel that thoy are on
solid ground In opposing any change
ftom riiiladelphia. That city, it is ad
mitted, is moro nearly equally distant
from "West I'oint and Annapolis of any
place which can afford suitable
grounds. The trip from Annapolis to
New Vork is so long that it is doubt
ful if the department would allow the
brigade of midshipmen to go, and much
of the interest of the contest would
!>e lust if the two student bodies would
not attend. This would also be an
objoction to playing nt Annapolis or
West I'oint, and there would bo assur
ance thai the departments would al
low the respective students to mako
the long trip necessary, with its at
tendant upsetting of the routine at the
schools.
The most serious objection to the old
method, however, would bo ilie impos
sibility of properly caring for the tre
mendous crowd which would attend the
games. At Annapolis there is a per- j
miinent stand, seating about 0.000 per
sons. and some temporary stands could
bo erected. At West Point conditions
are understood to be even less satis
factory, there being no permanent
stands nt all. With free admission 50,
000 persons would 1m> a small estimate
of those xvho would try to see the
game. As it would be out of the ques
tion to keep the public off of a Fed
eral reservation, there would he no end
of discord and bad feeling on the
part of those who were kept where
they could not see the game. In fact,
the suggestion is felt to bo absolutely
Impractical.
An effort will also be made to reach
an agreement which will cover the time
of playing the game. West Point lias
always wished to play on the Saturday
before Thanksgiving: Day, while An
napolis likes a week later. It is now
proposed that ii be played on the later
date, providing it falls not later than
November 29, and in such cases to play ,
on the Saturday before Thanksgiving I
Day. It is said that the Army will j
accept this, provided November 2S be
selected as the latest date on which
the game be played.
It is now felt that the season is right
at hand and that the arrangements
should bo completed. The representa
tives of the Navy are willing to make
any fair concession in order to Insure
the future playing of the game.

New York Sporting Writer Tells
of Details Gathered by
Detective Agency.
[ Spoc-lal to The Times-Dispatch]
New York, August 17.?The direct
statement that James J. Jeffries, after
his defeat by Jack Johnson at Reno,
sought an<l si cured proof that he had
been drugged before the battle with
the ne^ro Is made in a signed article
written by a New York sporting edi
tor ami published in an evening paper.
The statement follows, in part:
"Jeffries hired one of the greatest
detective agencies in the world to run
down the facts. The details gathered
make up a complete story of the most
sordid plot that ever turned fair sport
iiitu a sure-thing gamble. I'ossibly
Johnson would have won in any case,
but the cliquc. that handled the betting
made It a certainty by drugging Jef
fries with the help of men who were
in iiis confidence, and who had the
run of his camp. They cleaned up a
fortune through belting commissioners
stationed in many cities. In i'aria
ah>ne they wagered $24,000 and won
Jli'.OliO. In Reno and San Francisco and
lids Angeles and New York their gains
went into the hundreds of thousands.
"The 'tip' for the big killing was
received by the waiting commissioners
less than twenty-four hours before the
!if_ht, when the gamblers know that
Jeffries was 'safe.'
"The lirst plot was broached in a
back room; the last man necessary
to its success accepted his part in a
meeting in a Reno alley two nights
before the ti^ht. after having learned
that lie could make no more money
with Jeffries and that he could win
thousands by turning Judas. One man
whose available cash was also secretly
wagered on Johnson, smilingly posed
as a friendly adviser of Jeffries during
the t.yht."

RICHMOND MAKES BID
FOR TRAINING SCHOOL
L.
Institution for Lay Workers to
Be Established by Southern
Presbyterian Church.
HV MAMIE HAYS.
Muntrcat, N. C-, August 17.?An in
teresting 'act In connection with the
i training school l'or lay workers to be
I established by the Southern Presbyte
rian Church within the next year is
that the most definite offer as to the
location of this school thnt h;is been
r? reived by the committee in charge of
i the same has come from the l'rusby
terinn League in Richmond.
There has been for a number of years
past an increasing' demand for a school j
devoted especially to the training of j
lay workers In this church, this school |
to sustain a relation to the general as- i
sembly similar to that which theolog- |
I ical seminaries sustain to that body.
The executive committee of publica
tion and Sabbath school work presented
to the general assembly of 1011 a
I recommendation that a special commit
tee representing the four general tn
j t- rests of the church be appointed to
i Investigate the whole subject of a
[ training school for lay workers and
report the result of the investigation
| to the Keneral assembly of 19112.
This commltte was not appointed by j
| the assembly of 1911, but at the as- !
sembly of 1!>I2 the recommendation 1
for the appointment of such a com
mittee was approved, and the commit- j
tee was appointed, consisting of two
membors front each of the four execu- j
tive committees of the assembly,
(?rowlnjt .Need of Workers.
The committee appointed found that ,
in the church there is a steadily ?ro\v- |
Ing need for trained lay workers, espe- !
1 daily in well established churches I
where. assistants to pastors, Sunday j
school superintendents, teachers, visit- i
inn nurses and social workers are in j
demand. The committee found also the s
demand is increasing for trained lay j
! workers in the home mission fields and j
foreign mission fields of the church. ;
and that the need is imperative for i
trained workers of large constructive !
ability. The fact that in the Southern
Presbyterian Church there is no insti
tution for the training of lay workers,
especially, increases the importance of
j tin establishment of such an institution
j as soon as possible.
After a meeting of the committee
hold during the summer of i;>l 2, an
nouncement was made of readiness to
receive bids for t lie location of the
! school, the following conditions to be i
met: Wherever the school is located I
a sile must be donated, with means to j
erect adequate buildings, to secure a j
competent faculty and to meet the run- I
i nitig expenses of the school for three J
y. ars without involving the gem ral
> assembly in any financial rosponslbil- I
m These conditions were prescribed j
j by the asetnhly.
{te.sl m hie site OlVered. I
The :-it< in the offer made liy the
Presbyterian League of Richmond was
? a very desirable one of about three
acres, located in Glitter Park, a short
distance from Union Theological Semi
nary, and the offer <>f the site was
accompanied with abundant guaranty
that all of the conditions prescribed
1 b\ the assembly, regarding the loca
tion of the training school, would be
i met. Thinking that the committee
had tin! power to act lit the matter of
the location of the school without fur
ther action by the assembly, the Pres
byterian League, kept its offer open
j only until May ir?, 1M3
lJy order of the assembly, luld in
! Atlanta the present year, the commit
, tee on tlio location of the training
j school was continued and was author
ized to prepare a curriculum of tho
school, in outline, to define the relation
of the school to the general assembly
at- similar to the relation of theological
seminaries that body. The commit
tee was authorized also to locate the
school within one year from that date,
May 19. lf'Lt. when all of the conditions
prescribed shall have been met.
The first meeting of tite committee
held since the assembly in Atlanta was
: that held at Montreat. Acting upon
I the instructions of the assembly, the
j committee, as the result of the Mon
I treat meeting, has again invited propo
iltlons from all places desiring tho
ocation of the school In their midst,
ill propositions to be submitted to
tev. A. L. Phillips, D. D., of Richmond,
? n or before tho 1st of November of
his year.
Other Proposition*.
In addition to the proposition which
ho committee received for the location
>f the training school in Richmond, it
b known that requests cuino also from
ted Springs and from Montreat, N. O.,
or the school to be located at those
?laces, it is known also that a similar
? reposition will probably be received |
rom Nashville, Tenn. It is not to be
loiibtcd that all of the propositions
bat have been submitted in this con
lection will be rcnowod, and that a
lumber of others will be received.
Those interested in the location of
lie training school In Richmond em- |
dijisize many points In support of their I
?hoice. Richmond is not only one of !
he leading business and educational ;
:entres of tho South, but ?e a church (
md religious centre it is no less known, i
rile fact that the headquarters of pub- j
ication and Sabbath school work, one j
if the four executive committees of tho
?hurch, and that Union Theological
Seminary, tho leading theological sem- !
nary of tho church, are located in
lichmond, gives added emphasis to the
ippropriateness of making Richmond ,
he homo of the training school for lay
Yorkers of Southern Presbyterianism.
rhe .seminary would furnish much to
lie students in the training school in
lie way of association and lectures, in
iddition to the fact that In Richmond !
tudents who desire to equip them-'
selves for work as medical mission- j
tries or trained nurses in the home or i
oieign fields of the church could re- i
?elvc large advantage from the lios- j
litals of the city. The large churches,
ity missions and other well-organized
onus of church work would give equal |
itlvantage to students equipping them
selves for assistants to pastors. Sun- .
lay school superintendents and teach
>rs and other agents of church activity.
No proposition received by the coni
nlttee lust year relative to the loca
lon of the training school was more
lefinlte, liberal and promising than
hat of Richmond, and If this propo
rtion Is renewed and should become
he choice of tho committee, that city
will have within her midst another
if the great interests of the church,
he first training school for lay work-j
rs to be established by this church, ;
ind one with which both the ministry 1
md the lnitv of the Southern Presby- j
ei-ian Church will bo closely allied.
The action of the committee in the
selection of the location for this train-!
tig school will be anticipated with ?
?special interest throughout the church.!
