Nationals Again Drop
Double Bill to Yanks
Boehlng Shows Form in First but New York Wins to
Timely Hits by Baker and Ppp Trim Grifmen in
the Second by 4 to Score.
By WILLIAM PEET.

New York. June 24.-Gririth's puni-
tive expedition into Gotham has this
far proved a dismal failure. for dis
sster in its worst form has been en-
countered. Bill Donov1n-s Yankees
appear to have the Gritmen entirely
surrendered. and the carnage the past
two days has been fearru-. our side
again dropped both games of a
double-header. Joe Boehling was
trimmed in the curtain raiser today

cap, 4 to 3. while a crowd of $4,000
fans cheered themselves hoarse.
Yesterday errors and bush league

Nationals. Today 1t was weather and

more puny hitting in the second. to-

In the second affair Doc Ayers also
gave a good account of himself. bat
developed the unfortunate habit of
putting the ball in the groove when
Baker and Pipp came to bat. Both OF
these gents slammed out home runs
with man on base. and it was this
long-distance clouting which gave
the enemy enough runs to bring home
the bacon.
The Nationals knocked Mogridge out

FIRST GAME

Joe Boehling and Ray Caldwell hooked
up. 1t was Boehling's first start since
he humbled the st. Louis Browns last
week and the smiling southpaw warmed
up, displaying plenty Of stuff"
As has been the rule in the series here
TO date the Nationals scored first, getting
to Caldwell for a marker in the second
inning, which Danny Moeller started by
drawing walk. On the hit and run play
Judge jammed the ball past Peckinpaugh,
advancing Moeller to third base, jamie
son hit a slow grounder to Baker, who
foolishly attempted to turn back Moeller
at the plate. but the throw came late.
Caldwell then settled down and retired
the side.
The Yankees knotted the count in the
third, couple of passes proving fatal
as Pipp unloaded a timely two-basger,
scoring Gilhooley.
There were two down in the Yanks'

Moeller Pops Up.
The Nationals had a grand chance to
put the game on ice in the sixth when,
with second and third loaded, and one
down. Moeller popped weakly to Peck
and Judge lined to High.

ing In the seventh, SO Gallia twirled the
two remaining innings for Washington.
II was in the seventh that the Nationals
punched two of their four hots of Cald-

from the next two batters. The score:

Doc had been warned to pitch low and

YARDS ON
THE MERCANTILE SHIPS

LONDON, June 10-The shipbuilding
yards of Great Britain are gradually
increasing their output of mercantile
tonnage, according to reports publish
ed in various papers, and in several in
stances building berths are being ex-
tended, new iron working sheds and
engine shop erected while large new
buildings at present utilized for gov
eminent work are expected to be avail
able for mercantile construction in
the near future. Several new vessels
are near completion and one or two
just completed on the Clyde.
Extensive repair work is in progress
also in most of the East and South
cast yards, while the Belfast yards are
said to be preparing for an early re-
sumption of mercantile work.
The dilution of labor scheme on the
Clyde has already commenced and a
number of women have been assigned
to suitable unskilled work.

RUSSIAN PRISONERS
ESCAPE INTO DUTCH

THE HAGUE, Netherlands, June 10
There has been striking increase in
the number of escaped Russian prison
ers-of-war to raech Dutch territory in
the last few weeks, arrivals being re-
ported almost daily. The fugitives sell
dom come alone, usually arriving in
parties varying from two or three to a
dozen. The increase is apparently due
to the greater facilities offered for
escape by the German policy of utiliz-
ing the labor of so many thousands of
such men in Belgium and elsewhere.
The number of escapes into Holland in
the last few months may be put at sew
eral hundreds, many of the men hail
ing from remote parts of the Russian
Empire.

PACK MULES STRANGE
SIGHT IN WAR ZONE

HEADQUARTERS OF THE ITAL-
IAN ARMY, June 1O.-The black line
of loaded pack mules, each led by an
Alpine soldier, is one of the strangest
sights to be met in the mountain war
zone. On busy days this line may
sometimes be seen winding its way
from valley five miles distant up the
mountain passes to peaks ten thous-
aid feet high.
The mule is at once the glory and
the backbone of the mountain trans
pcrtation system of the Italian army.
1t is particularly useful because it is
unafraid Itself bred in the noun
tains, often growing under the very
noses of volcanoes and used to grazing
while earthquakes threaten, at the
front it hardly pricks its ears at artil-
lery noises.
1t is estimated that upwards of $780,
600 mules in service in the war zone.
The most of them comes from the
Abruzzi mountains in the central part
of Italy, but they have been requisite
oned from every part of the kingdom,
even from Sicily and Sardinia, to-
gether with their two-wheeled carts
painted with scenes of provincial his
tory.
To this mule in the early part OF
the war Italy hitched much of her
hauling and carrying and today, with
plenty of fine roads and new bridges
in the war zone, the mule still keeps
pace with the automobile, the narrow
gauge railroad and the airline railways
of the high mountains.
This little mule, eleven to thirteen
hands high, often hardly as large as &
Texas pony, is different from Other
mules, burros, and evil-temperet
beasts. For one thing, it isn't stub
born. 1t doesn't flop back its ears
lunge out with both heels, like it.

willing, hardy, affectionate ANNA
that climbs snowy mountain pass
as surely as a, cat on fence. 1t il
used for carrying up the mountains
every article from a plank OF sof
pine to a cannon shell. If the italians
ever get over the mountains, they
promise to remember the mule thai

GOVERNOR HARRIS
Sticks IN RACE

ATLANTA, Ca, June 10.-Governor
Nat E. Harris today once more made
emphatic denial of the report which
had again gained circulation that he
would retire from the governors race.
"You may say for me-" said the gov
ernor, that am still in the race and
that l am running just as fast as my
wind will allow, and that am a long
ways from winded yet"
The source from which some of these
reports are gaining circulation seems
to be clear to the governor, and he in
timated that, it'll the continuation of
such reports, he would pay his re-
spects to the circulators in the near
future.

DUAL OFFICER WILL
SOON LEAVE GREECE

ATHENS, Greece, June lot is
announced that Rear Admiral Hubert
S. Cardale, the acting head Of the
British Naval Mission in Greece and at
present the ranking officer of the Roy
al Hellenic Navy on active service,
will soon relinquish his post and leave
Greece. He has been one of the most
prominent figures in Athens during
the war, for in his dual capacity as a
Britisher and an admiral of the Greek
navy, he has been a factor in quieting
many of the internal discussions in
this country, which, ever since the war
started, has been the scene Of a con-
tinual pulling and hauling of warning
interests.
One day Admiral Cardale has been
called upon to pronounce for the
Kings party" and again, on the next
-daay to speak for the Venizelists, the
adherents of the popular statesman
who desired to see Greece take up
arms against the Central Powers. The
ADMIRAL appears to have been fav-
orite of both King Constantine and
yenizelos. His relations with the roy
al family are of long standing, be-
ginning with his service under the
personal command of the then Crown
Prince Constantine in the first Balkan
war. Recently the King acted as god
father to the Admiral's son, naming
the infant Constantine.
On the outbreak Of the European
war in 1914 Admiral Cardale, secured
leave from the Greek government, took
the squad of British naval gunners in
Serbia in hand, organized the British,
French and Russian heavy artillery
defenses of Belgrade, successfully
mined the Danube and the Saava, sunk
a few Austrian monitors, wore the
uniform of a Serbian colonel of en-
gineers for six months, received the
order and star of the white eagle of
Serbia from the hands of King Peter
himself, and the Karageorge medal for
personal bravery.
