CHICAGO. III, oct. l3.-Clear.
cold weather greeted the Giants
and White sox today as they pre-
pared for the NTH game of the
worlds series at Comiskey park.
The teams came through several
young snowstorms and much frap-
ped weather en- route 10 Chicago
but on landing here found that the
terra firma was comparatively dry
and that they could at least play
football.
The importance OF winning to-
days game has not been overlooked
by anybody. The Giants realize II,
and II was driven home 70 the
White SoX by those two lusty
knocks they received at the hands
Of McGraw's men in New York. SO
IL looks like a battle 20 the finish in
the nth game.
Firmly entrenched in their own
bailiwick the White Sox will walk
into the game this afternoon with
the realization that they hold a
slight advantage over their New
York rivals. The Giants must play
before a hostile crowd and as they
are a temperamental team OF play
ers they are liable 10 balk, even at
baseball.
But the Sox will have no cut and
dried cinch 20 perform. In order 10
win they will probably have 70 play

AMSTERDAM. oct ia sensa-
tional report that Germany will
have new chancellor by the time
the reichstag reconvenes on Dec. 8,
is in circulation today. IL is evident
ly based upon dispatch from Ber-
lin quoting the Tageblatt as saying
that another CHARACTERISTIC crisis is
imminent
The explanation given regarding
the resignation OF Admiral Won
Cappelle as minister of marine in
the German cabinet, was that "a
man OF steruer stuff was needed %
This evidently means that Won Cap
pelle was held responsible for not
nipping i'm the bud the mutinous
outbreak in the fleet.
The opinion was advanced today
that the disanection in the German
fleet might prevent the contemplated
naval operations against the Russian
bases in the Baltic.
The influence Of the Russian revo-
luton has bitten more deeply into
the German navy than either the
army or the civilian population, and
the German naval staff evidently
fears that the sailors would refuse to
fight against the Russians.

LOAN DRIVE on
COUNTY FARNER RS
Committee Will Make Effort to
Get Bonds Into Hands of
AgriCuIturiStS.

During the remainder of the time
of the Liberty loan campaign the
guns of the St. Joseph county conn
mittee will be turned on the farmers
who have been slower to respond to
their country's call with regard TO
purchasing bonds than any other
class.
Chairman Charles Zigler, and
Samuel Leeper and Edward ZeitIer,
members Of the farmers committee,
spent Friday at WalkertOn lining I'D
workers in that section for the drive
to be made the coming week on
farmers in that community well able
to subscribe for at least one bond.
A mass meeting will be held in that
town next Monday or Tuesday, to
stimulate interest in the campaign.
a letter was received from Chair
man Zigler Saturday morning from
C.. Frederick Childs, federal reserve
chairman of Indiana, stating that
, the latter had communicated by tel
ephone with headquarters at Wash
ington and found thatthe govern
ment is about to send to 10000, 600
farmers of the country direct ap-
peal for subscriptions to bonds,
coupled with a resume Of arguments
toward that end.
Appeal TO Farmers.
Mr Childs' letter was accompanied
by an editorial appeal TO the farm
ers made by the Banker Farmer, q
widely circulated trade periodical
for the farmer. in which is said
regarding the Liberty loan bonds:
In purchasing Liberty bonds the
farmers OF the United States are
furnishing the means 10 their best
customers to purchase the products
of their farms Much OF the pro
Ceeds of the loan. both that used by
the United States government and
the amount loaned 70 the allies, is 70
be expended in purchasing food and
supplies for their armies from the
farmers. There are other reasons.
however. that make the Liberty loan
bonds especially desirable invest
ments for farmers.
"A safe investment is particularly
suited 60 a farmer. because he is in
most instances at a distance from
bond markets and not in "A position
either 10 know Of or immediately
! act upon information Of matters at
fecting the value of bonds. The
Liberty loan bonds are invincibly
safe, backed as they are by the re-
sources of the richest nation in the
world, and the faith ard credit OF a
people who have always respected
their obligations, and they are OF
stable value and liable 70 no taxa
ton or fluctuations in market value.
No Question of Value.
The farmer is a busy man and
often has neither the time nor the
opportunity 10 study the questions
OF finance and bond values The
Liberty loan bond being a bond
about which there can be no ques-
ton. he can rest assured always that
he has made no error i'm judgment
He often feels the need OF ready cash
before the harvesting Of mis- crops.
The Liberty loan bond puts in his
hand a security on which ne can al
WAYS borrow money and at a rate
as low or lower than he could Dor
row on any other security and with
less trouble"
