shoot of his as a permanent
ture. AS something to sneak over
now and then It works admirably,
but when 1t comes along regularly,
as 1t did yesterday in the fourth, it
is doomed to scandalous assault
and battery. The scandal grew to
the extent of four runs for the
Cats, and some of the fainter
hearted fans were struggling with
visions of another finish like Mon
day before the fusillade ended
But the batting line Brown offer
ed yesterday is something to lean
on in the hour of trouble. Holm
was the weakest sticker there, and
Vic has been known to get desper-
ately in earnest with his bat.
With a muddy diamond and slop-
by grass both teams played re-
markably interesting game. That
infield errors were not more nu-
merous Is one of the remarkable
features, for everybody was clout-
ing hard and the ball came out Of
the shadow of the stand black and
slippery, hard to see and harder
still to hold. A. drive went through
Altman as smoothly as a creased
pig goes through crowd, but when
a batter tried to make him repeat
with the bases full the Dutchman
gathered 1t in and stepping over to
third retired the side as a mere
matter of routine.
The Indians continued their pro-
gram with Aberdeen by displaying
their worst hostility In the first.
Altman took a double, Burnett. a
triple, Weed and Stevens a hard
smash each from young Mr. Most
and the net results showed four on
the board. Lejeune's heave into the
left bleachers helped some.
Some seesaw work by Connors
on the bases. coupled with good
luck, increased the score by two

The cruise has been practice trip
throughout, but It remained for the
final lap to institute the maneuvers
and tests planned. The intention was
to give the vessels the severest trials
at the finish of their long journey, in
order that any defects in them might
be demonstrated.
In addition to the 16 battleships that
composed the fleet. there were the
Yankton and Panther, two storeships,
and two GOLFERS. These were started
ahead from Gibraltar. Before they
had negotiated much OF the distance
westward across the Atlantic they
were met by the welcoming fleet sent
out from the United States. This
consisted of the battleships Maine,
New Hampshire, Idaho and Missis-
sippi, the armored cruisers Montana
and North Carolina, and the scout
cruisers Salem, Birmingham and Ches-
ter. When they Joined the others 1t

all kinds. Even after the Russian
ships had at last got out into the open
sea after their ludicrous battle with
the British trawlers on the Dogger
banks they had to put into every neu-
trail port along the way for coal and
provisions, only to be humored or or
dered out again, according to the good
Will of the various port authorities.
Then nearly six months had to be
spent at Madagascar In refitting, yet
during all that time, so Admiral Ro-
jestvensky's second in command has
testified, none OF the crews of any of
the Russian war ships was drilled in
