 TEDDY. ROOSEVELT
His Remarks About Germans Places Him In Danger of Assassination
 Little Attention To Trial

SYRACUSE, N. Y., May 11.-The police have been forced to place a heavy guard over ex-President Theo- dore Roosevelt as it is feared that his remarks regarding the sinking or the Lusitania, in which he calls the head of the German navy a murder CT and demanding instant action by President Wilson to maintain the dig nifty of the United States, has caused a number of threatening letters to be received by him. United States secret service detectives and special men from the local police force guard him every minute of the day, while strong details of police guard his ho' tel.
 The Lusitania loss has taken from the Roosevelt trial the interest it held few days ago.

penounces Sinking of Lusitania- EnaIand Fighting for Small Ma
 tions, He Claims.

LONDON, May 11.-Lord Asquith, prime minister of the British empire, announced to parliament last night that the sinking of the Lusitania was an unjustifable act and that the neu- tral nations of the world were of one accord that the aggression of the Ger man military government must be curbed for the good of humanity.
 The prime minister also appealed to neutral countries to uphold Eng land. France and Russia in the strug- gle to maintain the right of such small nations as Serbia and Belgium to exist and not become the prey Of any military power that might be raised in European countries.
 "England's fight" said Asquith, lis for humanity. The empire is fight ing to maintain the integrity of Bel eium and to uphold its treaty rights and force the German military power to respect treaties it has made and also insure to neutral natloils' Aihe Belgium, the right of existence and free government. The sinking Of merchant vessels has crystalized the sentiment of neutral nations for tho Allies"
 Parliament gave the prime minis ter a rousing reception. No interrup' tions were made even by those who had come to the session to put ques- tions to the government regarding the sinking of the Lusitania. It is now realized that the admiralty of Great Britain has done exceptional work to date and that the loss of the Lu- sitania, while regretable, was unavoid- able.

QUEENSTOWN, May 1.-The city authorities yesterday gave a military burial to ninety-two of the victims of the liner Lusitania. which was sunk by a German submarine. The streets from the churches to the cem: etery were lined with bare-headed residents of the city.

Gerber and sehana.

Any major league club that lands
two frst.class players from among its
annual crop Of recruits can figure
handsome returns from training camp
investments.
Catcher Bob Schang and Shortstop
Walter Gerber are the two big finds Of
the season from the Pirate viewpoint,
and It is doubtful II any other club has
picked up material of the same karat
as these two.
Enough was seen Of Schang and
Gerber in the fall to warrant big things
Of them. Both have shown unmistak.
able signs Of becoming stars in their
respective positions. II Clarke does
not get another good man out of the
entire squad. he can consider the 1915
experiments the most productive In
years. for rarely does any club come
out Of training season with a pair
Of Kohinoors like Schang and Gerber.
Both were badly needed In their re.
spective positions and both have made
good In every sense Of the word.
Schang, according to no less an
authority than George Gibson, is the
greatest catcher that has been on the
Pirate roster In ten years. His speed
