Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, August IA Sc.
ries Of apparently unfair decisions by
Umpires Hildebrand and O'Loughlin
prevented the Nationals from scoring
several runs In the first two innings Of
yesterdays game and paved the way
for s-to-1 victory for the Indians. In
the very first inning OLoughlin distin-
guished himself by calling Moeller out
at third base. Moeller had started the
game with a two-base hit to left CEN
ter. Foster fouled a couple, and then
struck out. While Milan was at bat
O'Neil had half-passed ball. and Noel
ler slid into third. O'Neil's throw plain
ly being late. O'Loughlin. however.
called Moeller out, and then Milan sin
gled. and Moeller should have scored.
Rice hit a grounder toward second
which hit Milan. and the side was out.
Williams led of the second inning
with three-base hit. and when Nor
gan drove long dy along the left foul
line. on which Graney made a catch in
an awkward position, Williams started
high. and O'Neil had to leap for 1t.
with the result that Williams slid
under him and was clearly safe. Hill
debrand. however, declared him out,
and while there was a long protest,
this availed nothing.
Prize Decision In Second.
The prize decision by Hildebrand
came In the second. Wamby had been
retired and Gandil singled to left
Hoehling caught Gandil mapping of
first. and after some chasing up and
down the base line he was finally
touched out. but. to the surprise Of
every one. Hildebrand. who had been
watching the rundown of Gandil, de-
cided that Boehling had balked and
motioned Gandil to second. This
caused Boehling's undoing, and Turn
er's double and O'Neirs single.
together with walks to Graney
and Chapman and a hit by Roth, gave
the Indians dve runs, when but for
the balk Boehling would no doubt have
gotten out OF the inning without being
scored on.
In the third inning Wamby doubled
and Morgan made q mess Of Gandil's
grounder; then. after Turner had
famed. ONeill sQuee5ed Wamby home.
That was the last run tho Indians got.
Jim Shaw taking BoehlinHs place and
pitching exceptional ball. Jim allowed
that he pitched. He gave but one pass
and struck out four. He looked better
than ever before.
The Nationals were saved from a
shutout when Shanks tripled in the
ninth and scored when Chapman made
wild throw OF McBride's grounder.

three German regiments were cap

progressed several miles to the east
ward to Hardicourt. Other German
regiments are surrounded by the
British at Gommecourt.
In view of the terrific nature of the
drive OF July ! it came as a surprise
that had not been taken by the tens
of thousands.
The explanation Is that the French
and British were not attacking
trenches similar to those in Cham
payne and Artois. The Somme Valley
positions were strongly held by
series of strongholds that Is en-
trenched villages. hillocks and block
houses which the allies masked in
their initial advance sweeping on to-
wards the German second line. The
consequence is that both the French
and British are now fighting two bat
man garrisons and the other TO beat

and disengaEe their isolated comrades.

Washington, July "A high speed

end of the session House leaders will

be put through in unprecedented time.

be confronted with the necessity OF
providing money to meet the extra
ordinary expenses Of the military ac-
tivity caused by the Mexican crisis.
1t has been agreed that the Next
can expenditures will be paid through
the issue OF bonds. The treasury has
available some $1oo.0oo,ooo of Pan
ANA Canal bonds which might be Is
sued for this purpose. But s125.oeo,-
900 has already been spent on Mexi-

The Senate has much more work
to do than the House. 1t Is far be-

July DO P. M.)-The close OF the
first days offensive over the longest
front the allies have yet attempted
to pierce and the most extensive
action yet fought finds the British and

South OF the Ancre the infantry
swept forward and Curlu was taken
by the French and Montauben and
Mametz were taken by the British
with almost unbroken success. though
they had TO contend with heavy cur
tains OF fire and delays due to the
stubborn resistance Of the Germans.
At some points this resistance made
the task particularly arduous for the
British. However. from the Ger
