New York. Oct. 1S.-William
Willard Howard, of New York, who
has just returned from his third trip
through Albania, predicted that the

sack and macaroni IS pound.
"While the people of the United
States have been sending 100000
900 worth of relief to Europe and
Turkey, 100000 women and child
rem in Albania have died OF starva-
tion," he said.
while each woman and child In
Belgium has had plenty to eat. wom-
en- and children In Albania have
gnawed at the carcasses OF horses In

height of twelve miles, is the propo-
sition that A. v. Wilson of Bar Har-
Dor, Me-, will place before the Ma

RELEASE or TOBACCO
A KENTUCKY SHIPMENT

Washington, Oct. 21.-Five hun
bred hogsheads Of tobacco shipped
by Rudolph, Hack & Co., of Clarks-
Vile, Tenn, to Copenhagen on the
steamer Trafalgar, which was held
up by the British Government, have
been released to the consignee, ac-
cording to an official statement re-
ceived by the State Department to-
day. Other details of the release OF
the shipment were not contained In
the message.
This news may relieve the appre-
hension OF tobacco dealers who
thought they had good reason to be-
lieve that Great Britain would hold
up large tobacco shipments indef-
nitely unless the shipments were
paid for prior to August 4 and ship
ment started before August 80.

labor's first official appeal to its
membership in behalf of President
Wilson's reelection was made public
to-day at the American Federation
of Labor headquarters. 1t is in the
form of a circular letter to ell oil

States Suffer.
hurley CROP Is EXTRA FINE

Washington, Oct. 21.-The larg-
est tobacco crop in the history OF
America is forecast by the Depart
ment of Agriculture in Detailed
statement just issued The depart
ment says:
"Tbe exceptionally large crop of
tobacco in prospect in September
has maintained its favorable aspect
although a decrease in estimated
yield of 90, 495, 900 pounds is shown.
The present forecast is for c crop
of 2OS,077,0OO pounds. which s.
still the largest crop. by 1O0,000,000
pounds, ever produced in this coun-
try and more than 210,CO0,000
pounds greater than the average
crop of the past five years. 1t eX-
ceeds last years crop by 143, 00C.-
600 pounds.
1.-THE crop in New England was
harvested before September and no
change is reported. In New York
the crop improved wonderfully, maxi
ing a good growth and showirr
more gum in the leaves. It was al
harvested safely except about fifty
acres caught by the frost of Septen-
Der 80. In Pennsylvania a small
decline in condition is shown, due -
dry weather and some hail damage.
The late crop in Maryland matur7d
finely and is curing nicely. In Va
ginia the yield is proving somewhat
lighter thar was expected, brt the
quality is reported good. In North
Carolina and South Carolina the
crop is reported very slightly lower
than last month, probably represent
ing fuller information. The latter
State reports the color fair, but
weight somewhat light.
'In Kentucky the high condition
was maintained, the month being
ideal for housing and curing. Bur-
ley there is extra fine in color ard
texture and only small amount Of
the late crop was hurt by the dry
weather of September. The dryness
was too extreme for the very best
results in curing, but was part'cU-
larry favorable for the prope: har-
vesting and housing of the immense
crop. The frosts of the 18th and
18th found but little tobacco in the
fields. The leaf Is generally well
grown, but thin. Similar conditions
obtained in Tennessee. where the
crop was gathered with no loss from
frost damage and where it suffered
little damage in curing.
, I'm Ohio the crop did well until
, the frost of the 18th and 18th,
, which caught part of the crop In tho
. fields and damaged the quality %
/, about u per cent. of the total acre
, age of the cigar type and IL per
cent. of the Burley. In Indiana q
light frost about the middle Of the
month did some damage, but rs tIG

cut the harm was not extensive. The
2 crop there, which was. of splendid
. stand and growth, was otherw's

p tion and is a thin, colory leaf. IN

EXPLAINS NEW FEDERAL LAW

Indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 2t.-Johr
Shelton Williams, Controller of the
Currency, speaking here before the
Farmers National Congress, de-
scribed the relation of the Federal
Reserve Law to the farmer and clos
ed with personal statement
brought out by President Wilson'S
recent allusion to attacks on the
Controller.

address at Shadow Lawn" said the
Controller, tells the country that

some special interests, are after my

Mr.. Williams said the new Fed
eral Reserve Law will forbid the
grasping from using for their own
advantage the necessities of their
neighbors," and that it puts the
farmer on the same plane as the
business man.
"The farmer" he said, sis enab-
led to borrow according to his indus

cause his banks know how and
where to get the money. II will not

Until a few days ago "Fresh Kid" Williams was in excellent health, but old age, at which he laughed as a youth of 99, caused his death.

 Otis Lawry is a brilliant collcgian who is expected tc develope class as a second baseman.
 Lawton Witt, who has been holding down the shortstop job for Mack most of the season, is regarded as a com ing star by many big league mana ger. This youth has played with dazzling briliance and has hit re- markably well for a youngster It is certain that he, at least, will fit into the place Mack has picked for him.
 Bates, regarded by Clark Griffith as the seasons find, will be at third base.
 A pitching staff having for its head liners two hurlers like Bush and Myers is bound to be strong. Besides these two there are Nabors and Shc,- han, who have been tried and found to possess class.

ACK'S METHOD IS
 GAINING RESULTS
By HAMILTON Special to Gateway by United Press)

NEW YORK, Sept. 27. - For two years now baseball fans have been having a hilarious laugh at the ex- pense of Connie Mack, manager of the Athletics. But now the laugh is be- ing turned to admiration, for the old fox's methods of building baseball clubs are beginning to bear fruit.
 When Mack broke up his wonder full team at the close of the 1914 season, after the Braves had given them a beating in the worlds series, Mack predicted that he would have a new baseball club ready to fight for ball games by 1917. He gave him self two seasons in which to rebuild the grand machine he had wrecked.
 And the elongated managers claims are beginning to be realized. Already he has assembled the main players who will make up the 1917 team with which he hopes to pull out of the eel lar.
 Three men have been purchased to help out the green players who have been learning the game under Mack's guidance. Ping Bodie, once with the White sox, but more recently vita the San Francisco Pacific Coast league club, is the most prominent of the trio. Outfelder Thasher of the South Atlantic league, is another, and Mack has picked up a third baseman named Bates, also from the coast. The latter is said to be the best third bascman in the minors.
 Mack has great confidence in the ability of his two new outfielders. He declares Bodie was not properly handled in Chicago. He charges Jimmy Callahan with riding the fence-buster instead of helping him along at critical moments. His own methods, he believes, will make a valuable asset of Bodie.
 In the infeld Mack has at least one man who is rated high. And if Stuff fy McInnis decides to retire or is turned over to some other club, Mack
