having written one OF the cleanest and

Shock to Constituents
The trading Of Matty came as n shock
to the followers of the Giants, and their
name is legion. They are to be found all
the way from Alaska to the Horn An
earthquake swallowing the Brush Stadium
might have been considered less startling.
But for the last two years Matty has
been on the decline as a pitcher. He ad-
mitted this himself, although his ardent fol-
lowers refused to believe that tho wing of
Mnthewson could ever fail or that his fade
away could ever lose It's magic. Even John
McGraw, whose business is to know when
his older players are on the decline and to
replace them with new ones, firmly as
serted that Matty's old "eoupbone would be

Discussion Over Lusitania Only
Treats With the Past on Question
NEW ORDER AGAINST THE
MERCHANT SHIPPING NOW
Uncle Sam Wants to Know About
the Future as Well as the Past.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 21.-
State department officials said today
Ehey considered the submarine issue
with German still in a grave" state.
This attitude has been assumed in the
light of the newest law introduced as
submarine policy by the Teptons
contains no assurances for the future.
The situated created by their announc-
ed intention of sinking all armed mer-
Giant ships without warning after
February 29th, remains in the abb
stract today
The Lusitania agreement deals only
with occurrences of the past, and much
anxiety is expressed concerning lie
probable outcome of the proposed new
Teuton submarine policy Washington
officials viewed the situation today with
no little fear, inasmuch as the agree
ment just concluded gives no definite
assurances against another such dis
aster as sent the Lusitania to the bot
tom off Fastnet.
