NEW YORK, Apr. 20. ~ While the
big league players have hardly got in
TO their stride for the long pennant
races, the batting averages for the ini-
tial week of the schedules show that
the heavy batters OF the Federal lea.
cue have in number of cases been
able to hammer out place for them
selves among the 800 batters. In
the National league, Hal Chase in his
few games with Cincinnati has been

the Federas last year with .344 if

The Federal league representation
in the American league is considerably
less than that in the National and the
heavy hitters of the junior league
have crowded out OF the 300 or bet
ter class. all of the independent leagu,
players of 1915 Lee Magee, former
manager of the Brookfeds who batted
$3.50 a year ago, is the nearest APP

submit to being disarmed without sur
rendering and abandoning the position
they have held at all times since
thelr first formation. The Volunteer
organization also cannot maintain its
efficiency without organizers. The
raldlng for arms and attempted dis
arming of men, therefore. can in the
natural course OF things only be met
by resistance and bloodsheu. None
OF the Irish Volunteers recognize or
VIII ever recognize the right of the
government to disarm them, or to
lmprison their officers and men in any
fashion.
THE council also draws attention
TO the repeated instances in which the
governments action has been associa-
ted with the movements of hostile
crowds which are led to believe that
they act under government approval.
In the councils belief this feature of
the case is based on deliberate policy
OF creating factious hostility between
sections of the Irish people Moth
ing need be hoped from remonstrance
with the government, but we appeal
to the Irish people to look closely into
the facts that in every instance, and
keep watch on the conduct and
policy of the authorities, and to fix
the responsibility for any grave conse
quence that may arise
Most people in Ireland have rela-
tives or friends in the British army,
and consequently the appearances Of
the Volunteers on parade frequently
leads to trouble In Tullamore the
crowd wrecked the Sim Fein premi-
ses and the complaint of the Sim
Feiners was that the police did not
protect them. Police protection for
the anti-war party strikes most of the
people, who are for the war, as a hui
morous demand.

Unea asiness Is Felt.

Washington, April 23.-Considerable uneasiness was felt at the state de- partment yesterday over the reported movements of Felix Diaz and regard ing the new revolution he is organiz- ing against the Carranza government.
 It is said that several Mexicans now in the United States are being closely watched.
 It is regarded as possible that at least part of the anti-American feel ing in Chihuahua is traceable to Diaz.
 The war department officials today awaited word from Brigadier General Scott on which to base their plaus for the future action.
 Seer etary Baker declared this after coon that he has no knowledge of the reported efforts of General Scott to arrange conference with General Ob- regOn, Ca1ranza's war minister.
 The Mexican ambassador here ad- vised the state department officials this afternoon that he is investigating clues regarding the reported Diaz movements.

WORRY FELT OVER DIAZ MOVE Thought Possible Anti. ..merican Sen.
 timent is Traceable To Him.

San Antonio, April 23.-Bcigadier General Scott and General Funston this morning were inconsultation for seN eral hours, during which time they reviewed the details of the history Of the punitive expedition in Mexico, in- cluding the numerous reports from General Pershing.
 Ii was expected this afternoon that Pr:gadier General Scott would for Ward a brief report to Secretary or War Baker tonight.
 The army officers here very gener- ally discredit the suggestions that the manifest hostility of the Carrancistas toward the American troops is due to the Eiaz agents or to any other eiie- mics of the defactos.
 There has been no evidence received here to substantiate the report that the Diaz movement is making head way along the frontier.
 The Carranza gar.isons which are showing antagonism toward the Am orleans are wholly loyal to their chief, a report received here today states
 General Pershing has been ordered to prepare to meet any aggression which might be off red by the Mexi- cans of any faction.

Ray, ne gre county agent for Pulaski county ta become a general field agent to oi- ganiz., farmers clubs and boys corn clubs and to secure demonstrators among negro farmers. Ugh the fn- tlrrst of business men of Pine Bluff Marianna and Helena, local workers were found Who would give part of the time to the work. Several busi- ness men in Forrest City and other .3nlEuni. .ies are enGeayCrine to make similar arrangements. A few weeks ago the University Extension Division employed Rays wife, ! graduate in dtmrstic science and for several years a teacher ot domestic science in q s !

 The blanks will be handed the man. ufacturers by engineers of the state, who have volunteered to assist in gathering the information. They are orking under the committee of five Arkansas engineers, one from each branch of engineering, appointed 10 look after the work in this state.
 It is the plan of the government to carefully study the equipment of each manufacturing plans and determine the full extent of the possibilities for manufacturing the maximum amount of war munitions. This will be fol- lowed by the government placing With each manufacturing plant an order for the manufacture of some article that can be made by 1t without the install- ation of additional machinery. The manufacturer will be allowed a small profit upon this, and required to de vote some time annually to such man. ufatcure. Then should war be de clared the plant will know where to buy the necessary material, how to work it up, and how to transport it to the nearest concentration point.
 The machine shops Of Arkansas will be sent small calibre guns and shells to bore and polish. The powder mills of the state will be asked to manufac- ture certain kinds of explosives which are in demand in times of war The sulphuric acid plants of the Arkansas Fertilizer will also be asked to assist in making acids according to govern ment requirements There are hun dreds of other commodities which can also be made in Arkansas plants. such as cotton goods, gun stocks. automo- bile bodies, gun carriages. and the smnlters and large machinery plants can do much heavier work.
 The United States is apparently de- termined to profit by Europe's unpre> paredness, and have manufacturing conditions we'll in hand at all times. This plan further will provide a sys- ten of honor for men who stay in their places in the event of war in- stead of rushing to the front, for the Elan at the trench cannot fight unless they have sufficient amount of amuni- tio1 The mechanics will be asked tr, sign an agreement to remain at their work, and the manufacturers to turn Out material at the same profit in War times, as in peace, and thus insure stability of trade conditioH>
