warm REPLY
TO EXPONENT
FOR ITS SLUR
One Of Leading Townsmen
MinCeS No Words in AIIusion
to the Wilson Course.
(By Il. X. RIchards.)

That many other voters in this
neighborhod who have been made to
feel ashamed of their native land (by
reason of the foreign policies OF the
Woodrow Wilson administration
may be defended In their position,
along with myself, l answer the free
advertising given me in the morning
newspaper.
The man who penned those lines
was either fool or at heart know
ingly misrepresented the matter by
the use of that conventional little
word III" OF course. no one is
ashamed Of his country on account Of
its virtues. but we must feel ashamed
of Its mistakes before we can see the
need OF remedylng them. and we be-
lieve there Is shame enough In the
country to apply the remedy on cleo
ton day. As to those who are
ashamed OF their country's diplomacy
(under the guiding hand OF Woodrow
WILSON, going to Europe to seek
bloodshed, allow me to say that not
all OF the people In Europe are fight
ing, only the soldiers. The soldiers
are being slaughtered. Our country
has all Its available soldiers and re-
serve National Guard) in the field.
Our soldiers are being slaughtered.
our countrymep's property being de-
stroyed. and we Identifying the pro-
cedure by calling 1t peace, according
to the Woodrow" Interpretation,
Europe calls II war. You have but
little chance, except in matter OF ex-
tent. We even note by the papers
that the government at Washington
is afraid some portion OF our domain
will be blown up by Europes fight
conducted at our front door. What
we believe in and admire Is a neu-
trality such as this country maintain
ed during the swar between Russia
and Japan, when the chief executive
OF the United States was practically
the referee, and potent factor in the
adjustment OF the terms OF peace
acquitting himself with honor to
himself and country. On the other
hand II war must come we admire an
honorable war, such as we had I'M
der Mckinley, wherein the blood
shed was less than that under the
Woodrow peace plan and the war tax
about the same. Let those admire
who will. but for me do not admire
spineless imitation Of man or
administration made up OF theories
that are not good enough for him or
itself to adhere to on all occasions.
AS man or nation we must COM
mand respect II we expect to receive
it. Cowardice Is not a guarantee
against attack.

ship Blown Up by German
Submarine.

NEWPORT, Il. l.. oct. 10.-The
crew OF the British freight steamship
Kngstonian. missing since Sunday
when its members abandoned the ship
at the order or the German raiding
submarine in the waters off Nantuck-
ct shoals lightship, had not been
heard from Tuesday. Eleven torpedo
boat destroyers were despatched to
the vicinity of the lightship by Rear
Admiral Gleaves to continue the
search.
No further report of the submarine
or submarines which restroyed six
steamships Sunday on the trans-At-
lantic lane that rounds the lightship
same to hand Tuesday. There has
been no trace Of the submersible since
its last victim went to the bottom
Sunday night.
Search for the missing crew said to
number more than fifty men was
halted Monday on receipt of reports
that some of them had been found.
There was no confirmation from any
source by wireless and in fact the
report was officially denied. AS the
men had been afloat for more than
thirty-six hours in open boats and
probably without food or adequate
clothing the anxiety on the part of the
destroyer feet to locate them became
more intense especially as the wealth
er Monday night became extremely
cold

Giants, to witness post season strug-
giles in former years, but today saw
a reversal of the process with the
tide OF travel turned towards Flat

pied by the present National League

In contrast with the warm hazi-
ness of the past few days. remark
able for its suitability to the great
national pastime, the morning broke
cool and breezy with the promise of
a day more suited to work on the
gridiron than on the diamond.
The ticket holders for the games
to be played on the Flatbush dia-
mond-there were more than 10000
of them before the rush to the
grounds started-were not over i'm
patient to get to the playing field and
the Brooklyn traction lines were
easily able to take care of their fore
noon patrons. The thousands who
had not been forehanded, however,
together with other thousands who
counted on winning out in the strug-
gle for places in the unreserved sec

game time there was every indica-

its $4,000 capacity.
The struggle of the day.. coming
after the two desperate encounters
in Boston, which left the Brooklyns
without a victory and gave the Red
sox commanding lead In the battle
for the title, promised to be perhaps
the Crucial" game Of the series. The
