II ONDON, April 4.--The little
IL village OF Naux is once again
in the hands of the French, after
a fight that lasted for hours, and
covered the field anew with The
bodies of the dead. The Germans
still hold a fragment of the north
ern fringe of the town, or what
was once the town, but is now
only a waste OF tumbled down
houses, battered out Of all shape
by the rain OF shells that has been
poured upon the place for weeks,
Expect New Attack
What Is believed - hS tlie pre-
.paration for another and greater
salfensiYe has begun With the vio-
lent lbombardment Of the Bour-
rus wood, FIVE and one half miles
northwest Of Verdun, Here an
other tremendous drive upon
the battered positions around
Ncrdun is believed to be contem-
plated by the German generals.
French military observers see
signs that the fourth desperate
attempt of the Teutons to cut
their way past this stronghold is
now under way.
All Sunday night there was a
tremendous fight between Doua-
mont and Naux, which finally re-.
suited in favor of the French de-
Tenders. They have made gains
in the northern part Of the Gail
lette wood, scene OF many fights.
Teutons Moving Guns .
1t is believed that the violence
of the latest German attacks fore
shadows another movement of
vast forces against Verdun. New
German batteries. have been
moved closer than ever to the
outer line of French Notifications,
and the German infantry is being
rcorganized. -aaa Ss.s I.
On the western front, reports
from Petrograd announced that
/ the Russians have successfully re-.
pulsed "a fierce counter attack
made by the Germans against the
lines at Ikskull. Here fighting
was preceded by hours Of artil-
lery preparation, which the Rus
siaps claim did little damage, and
which Berlin says inflicted heavy
losses upon the Slavs.

SYRACUSE WINS;

Layden Tackles Umpire in
Second Battle
Seecial 10 the Telegraph

Syracuse, n. Y. Aug. 81. - SYRIA
cuse virtually clinched the New York
State League pennant to-day by win
ming two games from Harrisburg, the
scores being s to 3 and 3 to 2.
Layden was put out of the second
game in the sixth inning for throw
ing Umpire MCGOWAN to the ground
following an argument over a pitched
ball. Syracuse leads Scranton, which
is in second place, by seven games.
Parsons was bumped hard and Of
ten in the first game. His support
was ragged. The locals secured a big
lead in the first and second innings of
the opening battle, on timely hits and
errors. Parsons settled down for five
innings. Harrisburg's runs came on
punched bingles.
Layden Loses His Head
In the second game 1t was an inter-
esting pitchers battle, the Stars maxi
ing their safeties count. The miXup
came in the sixth inning when Umpire
MCGOWAN after calling three straight
balls on the centerfielder called a
strike. Layden had previously lost
his temper because the crowd jeered
him and when Umpire MCGOWAN re-
sented the ugly words used by the
player. Layden pulled off the jumps
mask and threw him to the ground.
The players interfered and took
Layden to the Clubhouse where a po-
liceman took charge of the Harris
grounds. Harrisburg had two rallies
in this game. but could not overcome
the one run lead. The scores:

STRIKE MAY TIE
UP BALL GAMES
Manager. George Cockill Will
Await Development; Can
Use Automobiles

Harrisburg is scheduled for six
games at Island Park next week.
Whether the strike will affect the New
York State League contests, Is q ques-
ton. Manager George Cockill said last
night that it all depended on the SYRIA
cuse and Utica teams getting here. He
added:
We will be home before the strike
is in effect. Harrisburg has two games
with Reading on Monday. Lack OF train
facilities will not interfere with the
games being played at Reading. We
can travel by autos and fill the Labor
Day dates. 1t is the games at home
that has US guessing. Railroads prom
ise to keep the passenger trains NOV
ing. If they do. there will be no inter-
ference with the games. Utica will
be the worst off as they come from
.ome to this city. Syracuse must
jump on Monday night from Utica to
Reading. So we are sure of az least
the final games with the Stars. How
ever, we will wait for developments"
An Associated Press dispatch from Chi
cago says:
Plans for transporting ball teams
in case of a general railroad strike by
motor boat and interurban trolley
have been discussed in every league
which would be affected, 1t was learn
ed here to-day. President Johnson of
the American League, was not in his
office, but at the office of the Chicago
Nationals it was said no interruption
in the schedule was expected as tenta-
tive plans for moving the teams from
town to town by motorcars where troll
ley or boats We're not available al
ready had been arranged.
Boat lines from Buffalo to Cleve-
land or Detroit and thence for most of
the way to Chicago the trolley lines
will be used by teams here and prob
ably the st. Louis clubs. The extern
sive trolley system of Indiana, Ohio,
and Illinois will make solution of the
transportation problem not difficult.
The proposition that interleagu
games be substituted for those Of the
regular schedule has been suggested
in case of a general tieup of all means
of transported ton"
