Walter johnson left Philadelphia last
evening for his home in Kansas where
he Will remain until time for the spring
ensemble to leave for the training camp.
1t was understood that johnson would
return to Washington and talk with
Manager Grifith about next year. How
ever, the "old Fox" stated last even
ing in a nonehalent manner that he isn't
worried one bit about the greatest pitch
er Of the present day signing any other
contract except one for service as a
Washington twirIer.
Inasmuch as they will hardly see each
other until next spring. II Is worth
long bet that all these offerings to John
son from the Federal League will do no
good. II is certain that were Griffith
worried about his star he would never
have allowed him to go home unsigned.
Take II from me- this bunch OF Bos-
ton Braves have the Athletics lashed TO
the mast and from what l saw Friday
and yesterday In Philadelphia 1t is about
all over except the yelling"
This is the opinion passed upon the
outcome of the present world series by
Manager Clark Grifith. OF the Washing
ton club. He continued:
'Maranville is one Of the. most wonder
full shortstops ever developed for any
club. Dangerous as a hitter. he is a
marvel on defenses, combining the quick
est OF thinking with great execution Of
plays.
Rudolph and James twirled wonderful
ball. Either they knew what the Athletics
couldn't hit and fed It to them. or else
what they did feed was natural for them.
They had the Maekmen eating out of
their hands all the way.
Deal came through yesterday in great
shape His theft OF third was not in any
sense OF the word the effort Of a lucky
man caught mapping. He thought out
that very play before he ever reached
second.
IAN In all. the Braves are a bunch Of
fighters, and what Stallings drilled into
them before the series started and what
they have done so far makes 1t almost a
certainty that they will be able to sub
due the Athletics"

GERMAN GASOLINE
FAMINE QUESTIONED
Standard Oil Officials Doubt
Reported Shortage Due
to War.

Whether Germany has suffered from
shortage In gasolene. as was recently
reported. is stl1l an open question. in
the opinion of officials OF the Standard
oil Company. 1t is admitted. however
that many OF the nations large sources
OF supply have been cut off by the war
and that Germany will have to develop
more and more her own fields to meet
the ever increasing need.
II was said In the foreign department
of the Standard OIL Company yesterday
that Germany YVES we'll supplied with
gasolene before 'he war and that as the
Government probably seized all gasolene
In storage at the beginning of hostilities
the conflict has not progressed far enough
to bring about a serious shortage.
Germany's consumption OF gasolene
yearly IL estimated at between a million
and a million and a half barrels. or this
the United States provides about one
third. For the remainder of her supply
Germany draws on the rich oil fields of
Rumania. Austria Hungary, the Dutch
East Indies and Mexico. The Standard
OIL Company and independent concerns
have been able to export no oil to Ger
many since the beginning of the war The
supply from the Dutch field Is now limited
on account OF Hollands neutrality stand.
II is believed that as the war continues
Germany will more and more feel the
pinch of want in this respect. but that
sweeping statements at the present time
OF a shortage In gasolene are not based
on accurate facts
An official of the Standard OIL Com
pany said yesterday that Germany prob
ably conserved her supply of gasolene
from the start OF the war by taking over
all the sources of supply and operating
the large oil fields In Austria Hungary
and Gallc!a.
Before the war broke out" this Off
cial said Russia provided a big field
for Germany. This is now. of course
cut off Whether the advance OF the Rus
SLAMS into Galicia has affected the rich
oil fields in that region Ia not definitely
known The oil fields In Germany proper
are small and of comparatively little value
The necessity for gasolene as the war
progresses will force Germany to look for
new sources in her own country. There
is no definite way OF knowing a. the
present stage whether Germany Is vel
suffering from any real shortage In this
respect.
ut ls useless to say however. tina. the
question OF a gasolene supply for Ger
many Ia not becoming graver at every
stage OF the war. II Germany II unable
to obtain oil from the Dutch East Indies
large and valuable field Is denied her
She Is prevented from obtaining a sup
| ply from Russia and probably from Ru
mania, as well as from parts OF Galicia
| The resources of the empire are at tn,
same time so great that they may offse
even this tremendous disadvantage"
