Feds. in getting away to their first sea

unless there is a quantity of undiscov-
cred class elsewhere among the Feds

termination in abundance. Among
them Wickland. an Outfelder. has
shown a most gratifying class, as has
Tom Mcguire. young twirler. Ad
Brennan and Claude Hendrix are pitch
ers of established reps. and both of

looking bunch OF pitching material
than they ever saw in training camp

have a twirling stan this season that

KING Of
BELGIUM
THANKFUL
SAYS AMERICAN RELIEF
HAS SAVED NATION
FROM FAMINE

London, Dec 15.--"Your work
should save Belgium from famine
In these words King Albert of the
Belgians replied to a message of good
wishes sent to him on his name
day by the Ameri an commission for
relief in Belgium,
His majesty the kings reply con-
tinues, earnestly congratuIates your
commission on its generous and en-
lightened initiative He desires that
you should know he is grateful"
That the famine in Belgium is no
respector of persons, was yividly
brought home by letter received to-
day by the American commissioner
Diedrich, United States consul gen
erar at Antwerp, who appeals for
food foll his consular staff and for
himself. Mr.. Diedrich writes:
About ten days ago Jarvis Bell OF
New York, while on his way to
Brussels, kindly informed me that il
my family and myself needed any
thing to let him or the relief COM
mittee know, and that they would
provide as best they could. All
At the time the offer was made
did not think it would be necessary to
make use of it, lbut we have been
suddenly made to realize that Ant
werp is not victualized as commonly
reported a few days ago. The am
bassador declared that they were un-
able to supply bread for lack of flour.
For the time being they again
have started their work, but the out
look for steady supply of bread this
winter is very gloomy. IN view OF
this condition l would require the
American relief committee to let me
have, at the earliest opportunity,
some flour for myself and the faml-
lies of the consular staff"
