MATTY INCONSISTENT
(By Frank G. Menke.)

seems to be headed in the general dl- rection of his other years in fast com pany-the batting leadership of the American league.
 Tyrus isn't slamming them out wlth the frequency of 1911-12-13 but, there's reason" the reason being that he doesn't have to. No one in the league just now shows any slghs of finishing the year with 400 or any where near that total, so why should Ty unduly exert himself?
 Tvrus has a habit of never trying to make d runaway race of the battlhS business. To lead and to let others follow. close enough to make things bit interestng-that's Tvs meth cd.
 Before Josephus Jackson busted ln- to the clubbing contest in the Amerl- can league, Ty was content to club 'em out around .370 which was quite enough to give him the leadership. But, .Josephus, after really getting un- der way, soaked the leather for .4os or so, and Ty-oh, he went .420. That was enough ot beat Josephus ln convincing fashion. Had Joe gone to .5O0 it's quite likely that Ty would have taken notice of Joe's bet ana raised his average to about .o1o or .51S.
 Joe gave Ty another 400 battle and once again Ty was out-py Just enough to make the victory decisive Last Year Ty bated only .390 or so. But it was enough, because Jackson dropped to .310.
 This year Ty got away to bad start, but in the past eight weeks he has been hitting 'em again-Just enough to get back to his old place at the top. His lead isn't large, but that isn't Tvs idea of batting bat tie. He likes to keep competition close-and then breeze in under the October wire ahead by fairly notice able margin.
 Ty has lead the league seven years in a row. And this looks like num- Der eight.
 The National league is footing George Burns, of the Giants, as an outfielder who ranks with the great American league quartet-Cobb, Jack son. Speaker and Milan. Burns IS not as spectacular as the American leaguers, but his averages this year show him to be considerable of an all- around outfielder.
 Burns is batting well over 300 and his hitting is extremely timely. He seldom fails to deliver in pinch. Burns is a better thrower than Cobb CT Jackson, is pulling as many won derful fielding stunts as the great Speaker, is whirlwind on bases, and best of all, seems to without nerves and absolutely lacking in the temper amental stuff that detracts so much | from the usefulness of stars.
 Can Henus Wagner make it eighteen years ever the 300 mark? This is the question that agitates fandom just now almost as much as the one-who will participate in the worlds series
 The fans all over the country arc watching the game effort of the vet eran to again reach 300 and of stick ing there when he does. Honus start ed off at fine clip and held we'll over 300 early in the season, but when the Pirates slumped, his batting did likewise. He went down to a mark around .250 before the sklddlns

Special to the Evening Star.
PLAINFIELD, Aug. 20.-Now that
Judge William n. Runyon has de-
elined to be a candidate for the
Republican nomination for the As
sembly, it is believed that there will
be no aspirants for the nomination
from this city. Already Plainfield has
three men out for county offices,
Frank H. Smith for register and
Samuel T. T. Wilbur and John H.
Cose for the shrievalty.
1t was not regarded as good policy
for Mr.. Runyon to make the run for
the less important Office after twice
being the standard bearer of his party
in congressional campaigns.
No New Candidates Expected.
Much interest is being taken in
the Assembly candidates. Arthur e.
Warner and Charles l.. Morgan, of
Elizabeth, and Arthur N. Pierson, of
Westfield. In accordance to the plan
of the Republican clubs of this city,
each of the candidates will appear
here during the campaign several
times. The same will be true of the
candidates for the other offices. If
it has been rumored that tue three
may have some opposition at the pri-
maries by the entry of one or two
more candidates. However, the as
pirants for the position have been
for some time conducting their cam
paigns and other aspirants would be
handicapped by the lateness of the
day. Mr.. Warner was the first to an
nounce his candidacy, and he has al
ready been Endorsed by several or
ganizations. The same is true of the
other two candidates.

OUTLINES
WAR ACTIVITIES
Summary of Naval and Military
Situation Is Sent 10 Sec
rotary Bryan.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-The
British embassy here today received
from its foreign Office summary Of
the naval and military situation to
date. Colville Barclay, the charge.
sent a copy to Secretary Bryan. 1t
follows.
"Since the declaration of war. the
feet has been responsible for the
safety Of the expeditionary force
which completed Its Decentralization
in France on August IS, which was
effected in perfect order and without
a casualty.
1.-The work of the navy in the At
lantic and elsewhere in safeguarding
the trade routes Is best exemplified by
the fact that at Lloyds yesterday the
war risk rate fell to 40 shillings per
cent. for almost any voyages of
British vessels. whereas the rate to
insure freights OF corn paid by steam
ers from the United States to
British port is thirty shillings per-
cent.
THE German fleet outside the Bal
tic is confined to harbors. English
commerce is almost normal. German
seaborne commerce is paralyzed.
THE only casualty is the loss Of
the light cruiser Anphion, blown up
by mine after having sunk the
German mine-layer, Koenigin Louise.
One German submarine has been
sunk in the North Sea.
1.-THE military position is as fol-
lows:
1.-THE German forces at present ex-
tend from north Of neighborhood of
Basic, through Liege, to a point in
Belgium to the east of Antwerp, and
near the Dutch frontier. Outstand-
ing features of the operations up to
the present has been delay caused to
the contemplated German offensive
movement across the Mouse by the
defense of Liege, where the forts are
still intact. 1t has permitted the or
derby mobilization and concentration
of French army and British expedi-
tionary forces. German troops have
now crossed the Meuse, both above
and below Liege. and are gaining
some ground slowly westward, but
their advance cavalry has been con-
tinually checked by the Belgians.
"In the south, where the German
armies are apparently on the de-
fensive, the French are advancing on
long line into Alsace and Lorraine,
a great extent of which they now
occupy, after driving back in several
engagements the troops opposed to
them"

TO CHECK SPEED OF

Jersey Commissioner Seeks Re-

Special to the Evening star.

TRENTON, Aug. 2o.-In an effort
to bring about the revocation of IL
censes held by Pennsylvania autoists
who have violated the automobile
laws of New Jersey, State Commits
sioner of Motor Vehicles Job II. Lip
pincott has written to State Highway
Commissioner e. M. Bigelow, of Har-

also encloses a report filed at his Of

laws by a PENNSYLVANIA, and asks
that the name and address of the
holder of automobile number 55.47S be
sent to him, Commissioner Lippincett
hopes to have a working agreement
between himself and Commissioner
Bigelow in relation to the operation
of both departments
Commissioner Lippincett enters
further into the matter in his COM
munication by saying:
This department. will be very glad
to suspend or revoke the licenses Of
any New Jersey drivers who infract
the law OF Pennsylvania, provided af-
fidavits of responsible parties are filed
at this office, and provided the re-
suit of our investigation indicates
that such license should be revoked
or suspended. Will not your depart
ment enter into the same agreement
with reference to the Pennsylvanians
who travel in New Jersey?
Il would say that from our records
at this office, there would seem to
lbe a good basis for the complaint
fhat the Pennsylvania drivers are
probably the most reckless of any
drivers that come into New Jersey,
and that in a number of cases they
