NEWPORT, r. L., Oct. 10. =
Eleven American destroyers,
steaming in line with five miles
of rolling ocean between them,
today swept the Atlantic off Nan
tucket where five or six freighters
were sunk by a German subma
rine last Sunday, in another eff
fort to locate the crew of the
Kingston, or Kingstonian.
When Admiral Gleaves ordered
the destroyers out at $50 today
he admitted it would probably be
a useless search, after the all
night gale and cold weather.

EBBETS' FIELD, Brooklyn,
Oct. 10.--The Dodgers did 1t.
After being beaten I'm two straight
games by one-run margin they
returned the compliment to the
Red Sox this afternoon and took
the third game of the worlds Sc
ries by a score of to 3.
The Dodgers kept their feet
from start to finish. There was
not a single bobble in the infield
or outfield. For six innings Vet
eran Jack Coombs pitched sterl-
ing ball for Brooklyn and though
he was relieved by Pfeffer in the
seventh, credit for the victory
goes to Colby Jack.
Behind his pitching and that of
Pfeffer In the last two innings the
Dodgers put over their victory by
straight, out and out elouting,
mixed with a carefully played sac
rifice and clean fielding on the
defensive.

NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-Belief
that only five ships we're sunk in

Nantucket grew in shipping cir
cles here today as vague and con-
Trajectory reports concerning the
crew. of the steamer Kingston
were received.
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 mis-
read by wireless operators and
that no such vessel as the King
ston was attacked.
Within the last IL hours an
argument has arisen as to wheth-

err the name of the ship supposed
to have been sunk was the King
ston or Kingstonian.
Captain f. l.. Yates OF the Uru-
guayan steamer p. l.. M. Number
4, which rescued the crew OF the
British steamer Strathdene, said
he believed the name of the Chris
tian Knudsen had been misread
Kingston in some way when re-
ports were transmitted by wire-

1t was also pointed out that all
of the steamers were sunk within
a comparatively small radius.
Seventeen destroyers were in
the waters OFF Nantucket at one
time and II a ship named the
Kingston was sunk some trace OF
her crew or wreckage of some sort
would surely have been found.

Playing With Dynamite

/ hoSh WIN dynamite
And to come home now to the
United States and witness the at
tempt to thrust from the guidance
of American affairs the govern
ment which had led the United
States through this maze of di.
lplomacy and machination is, &c
one who has witnessed affairs
from the European end, little
short of terrifying. 1t is like play
Ing with dynamite.
There is no politics in Euro
pean nations today. Governments
are being held in their places by
coalitions. Among the neutrals
this also is true. Holland has no
politics, and 1t is safe; Switzer-
land has no politics and it Is safe.
Greece DID have politics, and
BEHOLD GREECE today.
IL Is Terrifying
To come home and to behold
the working OF politics in this
world crisis, is, repeat, little
short of terrifying.
With all the European
peoples doing all they can,
even to abandoning elections
in order to keep their govern
ments intact and unchanged,
there are persons I'm the
United States, who, out of
sheer politics, and by discus
sion of such petty matters as
the removal of u minor gov
eminent official, seek to
overthrow the government.
Certainly the steadiness of our
government is as important to us
as the steadiness of their govern
ment is to Germans or Britishers !:
our danger is as great If not so
Imminent and apparent as theirs.
The certain grasp of our pres
ent government on war affairs Is
as important to us as the grasp
of Won Bethman-Hollweg or As
quith is to Germany or England.
Do you know why Zeppelins fly
over London? 1t is not to destroy
y
arsenals or kill soldiers. 1t is to
disgust the British people with
their government and to provoke
them to upset ii on the ground
that 1t is not protecting them.
Men are fighting in Europe
now to upset enemy governments
and thereby weaken their oppo-
nents.
In the United States some
OF us are trying to upset our
own government at a time
when the war crisis demands
stability and continuance of
the government.
Most nations, in this crisis.
have abolished elections. This
was not necessary in the United
States, nor would it have been
possible. But this coming election
ought to be mere formality. The
vote ought to mean in so many
words,
