not conducive to scoring in the big
leagues.
The White Sox are on their way
home. Last night the seconds start
ed, and tonight, following a game
with Redlands, the regulars will trek
east, with many games scheduled en-
route. All the cripples are being
gathered in today and some fellows
are being left behind.
Red Kuhn, second string backstop
for two years, will be left with the
Oakland team. That means that Tom
Daily will be Schalk's first assistant,
with Mayer acting as the third line
of defense behind the bat. Kuhn did
good work here, but was frequently
injured.
Joe Benz, pitcher extraordinary,
will also stay behind in California.
But Joe isn't released. Not any, for
no-hit pitchers are scarce. He will
remain in Los Angeles for at least
two weeks to reCUperate from a win
ter's illness that has retarded his de-
velopment.
With the advantage of remaining
in California until the weather gets
warm here, both Benz and Manager
Rowland believe the pitcher will be
able to go into the game by the first
of May.
Buck Weaver will be gathered in
and taken along with the first string.
The star shortstop has entirely re-
covered frofm his attack of tonsilitis,
but will be held back for another
week before being sent to the battle
line. Then he and Eddie Collins will
have ten days to perfect their team
play around the keystone.

onds will result in continued inn
prOYement. He is usually a late
starter and is just catching his stride.
Warm weather has at last arrived
in Shreveport and the Whales are
getting some much-needed practice.
The first full game was put on yes
terday, Mordecai Brown pitching for
the regulars and Rankin Johnson for
the seconds. Regulars won, to 0.
Brown was the feature of the day,
as he has been Of several other days
in the training camp GhistOry. He
appeared to have everything with
which he used to do such wonderful
work for the Cubs, and tipped it
through merrily. He famed four.
Manager Tinker plans to use the
three-ingered marvel about once a
week during the Federal campaign,
figuring that he can work that often
and be effective enough to win a good
share of his games.
Dividing honors with Brown in
camp is Jimmy Smith, the young
shortstop. He is a phenomenal field
er, mt running mate 10 the speedy
Johnny Farrell, but there was much
doubt as to whether he would hit.
That uncertainty is rapidly being dis
PEELED. He has started to smash the
ball Justify and soaked an important
double yesterday. He and Farrell
were impregnable around second
base, together handling Is chances
without a slip and turning one spec
tacular double play.
RoIIie Zeider is also a better look
ing ball player than he was last year.
His back is no longer lame. Viewed
from all departments, the Whales
that start this season comprise a
troop about 80 per cent stronger than
the team which represented the

ABBEVILLE AUTOMOBILES.

The past year and a half has been
a lean year for the automobile
agents but things are frightening
up now and many new cars are being
sold and enjoyed by the purchasers,
the agent and friends of the pur-
chasers. During the past week Mr..
R. M. Hill has purchased Ford for
his pretty daughters, Judge Frank
Gary is enjoying life and taking the
air in a fine new Overland, while
DR.. Thomson. who has been the
"hasd proposition" for the auto
agents for the past two years, has
become so fascinated with the pleas
ant pastime that he has invested IN
two cars, a Ford to 60 to the farm
in, and an Overland for the use OF
his attractive daughter, Miss Antoi-
nette. Hon. VIM. N. Graydon is
also an Overland victim.

GREAT ACTIVITY IN EVIDENCE

PEACE MOVEMENT
VILLA LEADERS READY TO
MAKE COMPROMISE ON
MEXICAN SITUATION.

Washington, JAy 5.-Miguel Diaz
Lombardo, minister for foreign af-
fairs in the northern branch of the
convention government of Mexico,
arrived here today to join Enrique
C. Llorente, Washington representa-
tive of Gen. Villa, Gen. Felipe An
geles and Manuel Bonilla, former
cabinet minister under Madero.
The Villa leaders have recorded
their willingness to enter into peace
negotiations with Gen. Carranza
looking to the establishment of a
new provisional government which
might be given immediate recogni-
ton by the United States.
The arrest of Gen. Huerta and the
vigorous pursuit of his associates
have caused much satisfaction in
both Villa and Carranza circles,
where the sympathy of the United
States government for the factions
originally combined in the constitu-
tionalist movement as against the
Huerat element is referred to in
terms of appreciation.
Government officials are hoping
that the efforts of the United States
to prevent counter-revolutionary
movements in Mexico will tend to
bring the Carranza and Villa fac
tions together in preliminary peace
conferences.

Washington, July 3-The public
reception room in the senate wing
of the capital of the United States
was wrecked just before last mid
night by an explosion probably
caused by bomb or an internal
machine. No one was injured and
today there was only one clue, a
letter received by the Washington
Times, bearing postmark timed
before the explosion, announcing
that it would take place.
The letter, although written June
1, was mailed last night at 10
o'clock, nearly two hours before the
explosion. 1t was signed "R

Officials, at first inclined to be,

ton for Abbeville, and one in which

ganization have secured the services

UNITED STATES AND GERMANY
MAY REACH BASIS BY IN
FORMAL DISCUSSION.
Gerard Confers
At Wilhelmstrasse
Talks Over Question With High
German Oficials-Now Hoped
That Reply Will Be Made Accept
able to This Country.

I Washington, July 5.-Indications
in official quarters tonight were that
difficulties between the United States
and Germany over submarine war
fare may be solved in informal di-,
plomatic discussions prior to the final
drafting of the Germany reply.
The seriousness of the issue be-
tween the United States and Ger
many has so impressed officials in
j'erlin that they are undertaking to
learn through Ambassador Gerard
informally exactly what modifica-
tions of the submarine campaign will
satisfy the American demarG fer the
protection of its rights without re-
ducing the effectiveness Of the SUI
marine as weapon against Ger
many's enemies.
Ambassador Gerard has had sew
eral conferences with high German
officials in which various suggestions
have been made. The conference to
which Berlin press dispatches refer
red as having taken place last Sat-
urday had not been reported by Am
bassador Gerard tonight.
Mr.. Gerard has been unable to
learn definitely just what the Ger
man reply will be. It is said, how
ever, that Germany will make
counterproposal, and that its nature
is being discussed now by various
elements in the German government.
Such advices as Ambassador Ger
ard has sent portray a favorable
atmosphere in Berlin, from which
he infers that the reply will be
friendly, and perhaps satisfactory.
To Let Passengers Alone.
In a general way it is known Off
cially that Germany wants to avoid
further attacks on passenger vessels
of any nationality, but its difficulty
is to frame a proposal so as to pre-
vent the allies from continuing to
ship large quantities of ammunition
and contraband on these ships.
One suggestion discussed in Berlin
official quarters contemplates that
passenger vessels clearing from
American ports be immune from at
tacks, placing the burden on the
United States to interpret just what
is meant by "a vessel primarily en-
gagged in passenger traffic"
While the United States claims
the right to have its citizens travel
on all ships whether they carry con-
traband or not, Germany hopes, it
is understood, to impose moral OBJ
legation whereby Americans would
be persuaded not to take passage on
vessels devoted chiefly to contraband
traffic.
A New Method.

of a joint British-American or Ger
man-American inspection of passen-

FIERCE FIGHTING ON EASTERN
kAND WESTERN LINES AND
IN DARDENELLES.
Russians Resist
Between Streams
Making Desperate Stand on Pruth-
Dniester Front-Linsingen's For
ces Acknowledgements Make
Gains in Forest of lie Pretre.

London, July 5.-Much activity
was apparent today in all the three
theatres where the factors in the
European war are in actual contact,
but reports as to results generally
were contradictory.
Berlin used "reliable source"
for the denial that German battle
ship of the predreadnought type was
sunk by a Russian submarine at the
mouth of Danzig bay, but Petro-
grads version is accepted by Lon
don.
Reading between the lines Of the
official reports it is not difficult to
deduce that the Russians are making
a desperate stand between the Rivers
Pruth and Dniester. Grand Duke
Nicholas, Russian commander in
chief, reports severe fighting in
southern Poland, while Vienna ad-
a 5mits that the Russians are attacking
in strong forces. Austro-German
sources, however, declare this effort
is a forlorn hope.
Gains River Bank.
Gen. Won Linsingen's Teutonic
army, after a fortnight of terrific
struggles, is reported by Vienna and
Berlin to have reached the whole
front of the Zlota Lipa river in
eastern Galicia.
Berlin claims important success
also in the West where in the forest
of lie Petre, the Germans are re-
ported to have compelled the obsti-
nately resisting French to evacuate
trench after trench over 1900
yard front until a thousand prison.
'ers, including a battalion staff, and
number of guns fell into the hands
of the attackers. The Paris version
of this claim is that after an ex-
etremely heavy bombardment the
Germans along a front of one kilo-
metre regained a foothold in the old
lines which had been taken by the
French. Both sides report sangui-
nary but fruitless attacks at other
points.
Check the Turks.
Rumors again are rife concerning
operations at the Dardanelles, but
the public curiosity will be stated to
some extent when the morning pa
pers publish the report from Gen.
Sir Ian Hamilton, commander-in-
chief of the allied land forces at the
Dardanelles, covering recent oper-
ations of the Gallipoli peninsula,
where fierce fighting from June 20
to July resulted in the check of a
Turkish offensive attempted under
the eye of Enver Pasna, Turkish
minister of war.
No Conscription Yet.
The expected opposition to the
British national register bill has
elicited the statement from Premier
Asquith that the government does
not contemplate the introduction of
forced labor or conscription.

A New Method.

The suggestion in press dispatches
of a joint British-American or Ger
man-American inspection of passen-

ters as likely to furnish basis for
a partial understanding.

the forthcoming note will pave the
way for further discussion in which
the causes of friction between the
United States and Germany may be
