CRISIS LOOMS Up
Cry Grows Louder To Break

Scandinavia and Holland Face
PerpIexing Problem.

again without success. He missed the
target with clock-like regularity. Then
he tore rules to tatters. He jerked his
pistol to his hip and scored four bulls

BAN JOHNSON IN GOTHAM
American League President Prepar-
ing General Order Making
Drills Compulsory.

NEW YORK, April 27.-Bancrof,
johnson. president of the American
League. dropped into town during the
general downpour on a tour of inspec-
ton. Although CONSUMPTION has not
yet passed Congress, 1t has already
passed the American League.
A general order prepared by Com
mander-in- Chief Johnson making drills
for American League players compul-
sorry is being prepared by one Of the
chiefs aids-de-camp. This order will
affect only tho Red Sox, who are row.
ing the land, winning ball games. but
making no military progress.
Commander johnson saw a competi-
tive drill between the Detroit Tigers
of which Corp. Hughey Jennings Is a
promising young soldier, and the White
Sox, who are opt to win the prize. The
Sox have so far progressed that they
are now in khaki and drill with Spring
field carbines. They can stage pretty
skirmish drill and q creditable advance
by rushes across the diamond.
Information of the progress of the
White Sox so alarmed the staff of the
Yankee drill squad that the defenders
of the Polo Grounds had a drill yester-
day, despite the moisture that soft
ened their drill ground. Capt. Huston
and Col. Rupert are determined that
the Yankees shall attain two things
this season, military proficiency and
the American League pennant. There
