SOUNDS WARNING

Men to Arm.
TeciaI Gable to me Washington Herald.

Special Gable to The Washington Herald
London, Dec. "A part Of Lord Rob-
ert's recent speech at Manchester which
has ELECTED floods of criticism and praise
is given here:
Now, just as in 1856 and 1870 war will
take place the instant the German forces
by land and sea are, by their superiority
at every point. as certain OF victory as
anything in human calculation can be
made certain. Germany strikes when
Germany's hour has struck That is the
time hOnOred policy of her foreign office
1t is her policy at the present hour
l. We may stand still Germany always
advances, and the line along which she
is moving is now almost manifest 1t
is toward a complete supremacy by land
and sea.
What. then. is my plan, and what is
my ultimate counsel to the nation and
the message TO my countfymen at this
solemn hour? 1t is, arm and prepare TO
acquit yourselves like men, for the time
Of your ordeal is at hand
As a European power, as continental
power, We do not exist for war. Our
army as a belligerent factor in Euro
pean politics is almost a neglible quantity
The empire is at all times practically de-
frnseless beyond its first line. Such an
empire invites war. Its assumed security
amid the armaments of Europe, and now
Of Asia. is insolent and provocative.
The territorial force is now an ac-
knOwledged failure-a failure in disci-
pline. A failure in numbers, a failure in
equipment, a failure in energy Unless
I am misinformed, the majority of the
territorials are not IN favor Of COM
pulsiOn.
I have commanded your armies in
peace and war. 1 say to you. the young
men of this city and of this nation that

DETROIT, Mich. July 27.-Nothing
sensational developed yesterday aft
ernoon during the final days racing
of the grand circuit meet. Two of
the events on the card were won in
straight heats, while one extra heat
was required to decide each of the
other two.
The 200 pace, last on the program.
furnished the best sport of the day.
In the first heat George Penn led
around to the distance stand, when
Babe. coming with a rush, passed
him in the last few yards and won
by a safe margin. Molly Darling.
Walter J.. and Forest Prince were
noses apart, a length back of the
leaders. Babe led in the second heat
until Molly Darling caught her a
hundred yards from the end and beat
her a half length at the wire. The
next time out Babe shot out of the
bunch half way down the stretch
and won slowing down.

better with Toledo than anybody has
expected and deserve greater things.
Fred Lake is another man of man
agerial calibre, and nobody would be
surprised to see him drift back into
the charmed circle. His work at the
wheel of the Red Sox a few years ago
has not been forgotten, and the foun-
dalton which he built has proved the
making of Jake Stahl this year. Or,
should we say the making of Jimmy
McAleer, who as president Of the

and done most of the important
things in the administration of the
American League leaders.
Two men who loom up for leaders
honors are now in the ranks of the
clubs that they may take hold of

Cubs, and Willie Keller. Of Brooklyn,
are the men. Jennings seems the
most formidable candidate for the
Brooklyn job when he is turned
lccse by Detroit, but If Ebbets fails

to be found. Brown should make a

The baseball season of 1912 is more
than half gone. Seems a little early,
maybe, to speculate upon next year.
but such is hardly the fact. Tho
situation already has shaped itself
so hat a number of things can be
foreseen, and not the least apparent
of these is the shaking up of the
managerial personnel in the two big
leagues.
No less than half a dozen pilots
seem due to pass from their present
posts of authority by the getaway
time in 1913. Three Of them are in the
National League and three in The

Gated. six opportunities viii await the
proper ones. and a promising lot there
seems to be ready to jump in and
handle the helm
The probability of the u~nseating of
Frank Chance. of the Chicago Cubs,
and Hughey Jennings, Of the Detroit
Tigers, is one of the noteworthy de-
velopments of the season to date.
Jennings's infidelity to the American
League during the last worlds series,
when he slipped tips on the Athletics
to McGraw, and his part in the re-
cent strike of the Tigers over Cobb's
suspension will cause him to be
ousted from the American League, Il

even granting them a n outsiders
