I it be done?" We've never tried it, so we are in no position to answer. The Giant Rally.
 1 Here and there for the last three weeks the Giants have shown ten dency to rally and emerge from the grotto They have presented flashes of first class play and have started as 1 if they meant business. But after each of these flashes they have imme- dfately subsided again and slipped back. It was all we'll enough back in April and May to suggest that the l campaign was young and that the stretch was still far beyond. But June is now verging on toward July and the Giants have yet to show any of the consistency which in past years lofted them up. They have had two months or more of it and haven't been able to get going. Couple these two months with the last three months of the 1914 campaign and you have five months of ineffectiveness. This, offhand, doesn't indicate any revival of the old flag days. Not enough for the cheering to begin booming against the ancient walls of Coogan's Bluff. As we understand it, Bryan didn't ! have the ''ten-day notice of release" clause cut and so jumped before waivers were asked and before he could be sent back to Nebraska for further seasoning.

 Not Forgetting the w. ,Sox.
 When in New York the Tigers seemed to figure the Red Sox as their main opponents The dope as out lined by Detroits eminent travellers was that Rowlands club was bear at home but penguin away on hos tile soil
 Unless present signs are highly mis- leading the Tigers had also better keep at least one orb peeled on the White Sox. They have a first class ball club--possibly not as strong in some ways as the Red Sox but one that is likely to pull together better and hustle harder all the way
 They have fine pitching and the best offence any White Sox team has shown in many years-a far better offence than the old White Sox ma- chine which cleaned up in 1906. They have club that only rough luck can drive from the race. l&
 As we understand it, some weeks back the Phillies were to hit the skids in May and begin making motions like a fat man descending a greased chute. But unless some r1iscreant has been tampering with the standing of the clubs they are taking their time about whizzing back to the second division.

Efforts to Be Made to Put

The recent trip of Mr.. Joy, the
Lincoln highway man, through Ne
vada and up the Kings canyon grade

bad shape for travel also, when
Charles A. Van Loan, the magazine
writer, attempted to get over it few

German Prison Camps Not Up
to the Standard That Is Reported

BY Wilber S. Forrest, United
Press staff correspondent
LONDON, June IL, by mail TO
New York.-That the German author
tiles have hoodwinked the variois
neutral commissions that have made
generally favorable reports on the
treatment and feeding of prisoners
of war in Germany is charged by
three Belgian -non-commissioned Of
iicers who recently escaped from the
prison camp of Bergenhus.
Questioned singly and then togeth-
or by the Belgian minister at Copen-
hagen, their stories, which have been
forwarded to the Belgian legation in
London, conceded. All agreed that
conditions are considerably better
than those in the smaller camps, the
former being under the command OF
superior officers. Though the rules
in the larger camps are severe, they
are applied with more or less equal
ity and there is not SO much arbi-
trary iniliction or excessive toll Or
ill-treatment, such as prevail in the
camps like Bergehus which are under
the command of suo-oificers Of the
reserves or tcrritorials, who run them
according to their own whims and
without the necessity OF reporting
their own violations of the rules.
In these camps English and Rms
sian prisoners are treated incom,a-
ably worse than the French and Bel
gians, said the escaped Belgians.
