Newport, r. l., Oct. 10.-Elevep Am
erican destroyers, steaming in line
with five miles of rblling ocean between
them, today swept the Atlantic off
Nantucket where 1--we or six freighters
were sunk by GHman submarine last
Sunday, in anothel3 effort to locate the
crew of the KingAon, or Kingstonian.
When Admiral Eleaves ordered the
destroyers out at $3.50 today he admit
ted it would probaby be a useless
search, after the az might gale and cold
weather.
The combing process started near
Montuk Point and swung eastward. 1t
covered distance of So miles north and
south and out beyond the Nantucket
shoals lightship. The Paulding was the
first to get away, leaving four minutes
after the order was received, and went
steaming down Newport harbor at q
speed of % knots. The sea was choppy
but the atmosphere clear, enabling each
vessel to see the next In line. The
searchers were. besids tn Paulding, the
Drayton, Jenkins, Tanning, Jarvis, Me
Call, Washington, Nicholson, Vain
wright, Porter and Conyngham.
The destroyers Ut last night failed
to locate any survivors. and Admira
Gleaves was skeptical of the success OF
the new expedition. He planned, how
ever, not to have them stay out Longer
than "a hours, feeling that if such Q
ship as the Kingston was sunk and the
men are still alive, they certainly viii
be located in that time.

No date has been set for Gerard to

Secretary Lansing comes to Shadow

of the German submarine U53 along
the Atlantic coast Sunday, his visit has
aroused great interest. The secretary,
however, has not seen the president for

Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, N. Y, Oct.
l0.-The weather man stepped in as a
pinch hitter in the world IS series this
afternoon. If any additional pep were
needed in the big tussle after yester'
days ord.breaking game, it was in
jected by zippy, snappy brand of wealth
er. The sun was shining brightly but
there was distinct snap in the air that
threw all kinds of ginger into fans and
players and at the same time was not
uncomfortable.
President Charles II. Ebbets had
made great preparations, for the recep.
ton of the two teams. Around the wall
fluttered myriad gay flags, one appar'
emily for every holiday on the Ebbets
almanac. In left field, usually given
over to the scoreboard, temporary
bleachers had been built and the crowd
had no trouble at all in hiding the score
boards.
The Boston Royal Rooters, relocated
band and all, headed into the park
early, with the band bursting away al

Want Neutral Nations
to Bar Submarines

Washington, Oct 10.-Acting Secre-
tary of State Polk today said the Uni
ted States answer to the memorandum
recently sent by the allied powers TO all
neutral governments concerning the adj
mission of belligerent submarines TO
neutral ports, does not, in the least, ac-
quiesce in the allies view. He declined
to discuss the United States position
further.
The allies in their memorandum, made
public in London yesterday, declared
neutral nations should refuse belligerent
submarines the right to enter. One
point was made that, since the nation
ality of submersibles cannot be de-
termined readily, neutral submarines
were placed in danger of attack by
belligerent nations warships through
mistake.

THIRD GAME OF SERIES
ORA WIS NEW YORKFA
IN SPITE OF WEATHER

Dodgers and Red Sox alike were Civ
en- a rousing reception. 1t was necessary
to rope off Il passagewahy from the
train shed exit to the main lobby of
the station to prevent the players from
being overwhelmed by the enthusiastic
fans.
"Babe" Ruth, who pitched yester-
days record breaking game and won it
for the Sox, was first recognized by
the crowd when Boston arrived. He was
loudly cheered.
The Dodgers hustled away to their
homes in Brooklyn Immediately on ar
riying, reported at Ebbets field this
morning and prepared for the effort of
their lives this afternoon.
The psychological side of the game,
the breaking moment when a battle
is won or lost on single play, has
crushed the Dodgers in both games TO
date. Each time the moment has ap-
peared the flash of batted ball, the
hurrying of feet on the paths, the swish
then the break. A bobble somewhere
and the Dodgers have fallen.
Each time it has been George Cut
shaw, hero of many u common, every
day National league championship con-
test, who has shook the chances of vic
tory from under the eyes of the Dodgers.
In the first game it was Cutshaw s
boot at crucial moment which allow
ed run to score, and yesterday it was
Cutshaw who, in the third inning, al
lowed his nerves to splinter the Dodg-
ers' hopes. Without his bobble, hesi-
tating tumble of a ground ball he should
have fielded easily Everett Scott would
not have scored from third and the
game would have ended in the ninth in
ming with the Dodgers on top by a one
to nothing score. Instead, they sparkled
through II innings of the bitterest
fighting Boston has witnessed in many
day.

exampled as the game wore on. Sherrod

Strangled Girl with
School Book Strap

New York, Oct. lO.-Strangled to
death with the strap she used to carry
her school books, 11-year-old Belle
Bricker was found in the basement Of a
tenement building at 1s4 Monroe street
today.
The little girl had been missing since
she started for school yesterday. She
evidently was attacked on her way to
school. Her clothing was badly torn
and her face bruised and covered with
blood.
Morris Silverstein, the janitor, who
discovered the, body, said he was in the
cellar at 10 clock last night and saw
nothing unusual. Detectives believe the
girl was assaulted and killed at some
other place and her body dragged to the
tenement building last night.

Think Only Five Sunk.

New York, Oct. 10.--Belief that only
five ships were sunk in the German
submarine raid off Nantucket grew in
shipping circles here today. as vague
and contradictory reports concerning the
crew of the steamer Kingston were re-
ceived.
Thirty-six hours having elapsed since
the Kingston was supposed to have been
sunk without any trace of her crew,
steamship men were inclined to believe
the name Of the vessel may have been
misread by wireless oprations and that
no such vssel as the Kingston was at.

is also pointed out that it hardly seems
reasonable that the crew of one ship
could possibly be overlooked by the res

Seventeen destroyers were in the wa
ters off Nantucket at one time and if a
ship named the Kingston was sunk some
trace of her crew or wreekage of some
sort would surely have been found.
To further bear out the theory that
the reportaing of the Kingston is most
likely an error, it was pointed out that
three additional ships were reported as
sunk in wireless messages to all New

names of these vessels were never learn
