Postpone Sailings

European SailnGS Of all ships flying
the American flag should be postponed,
according to the opinion of the State
department. Secretary Lansing. in an
nouncing that message to this effect
had been sent to the International Mer-
camille Marine, in regard to the sail
ing of the American steamer st. Louis
for England tomorrow was emphatic
in saying no orders had been issued
against her sailing but that the opin
ion of the department had been given
that It would be wiser to await the
decision of the country in the broader
issue of the controversy with Germany.
The State department feels that the
sailingS of the vessels, the departure OF
Americans from Germany and the safe
passage of other Americans across the
Atlantic should for the moment be left
entirely to the discretion of the indi-
vidualS concerned on their personal
judgment of the situation. Wherever
possible, however, it is earnestly dc
sired that no risks be taken until the
formal decision Of the country on the
whole issue has been announced. All
the collateral incidents relating to that
larger issue will then fall into line. No
long delay is expected.
Germany is understood by officials here
to be in the dark as to Americas prob
able position. Not till the American
course has been formally announced at
home, it is understood, will Germany re-
ceive her answer. No hints, limitations
or indirect messages will be conveyed
Many cablegrams have been exchanged
between the state department and Am
bassador Gerard since the German pro-
nouncement. it is stated. but none of the
information has gone further Especially
is the ambassador being fully informed
as to the state Of public opinion in this

The Industrial lntoxications arising
from the making of war munitions
open a quite new field of study. Alice
Hamilton. ia her investigation among
10000 workers In II plants, found that
the real cause of Illness was rccog-
nized by few even among the factory
physicians. but there was evidence OF
poisoning IN 2,50S cases. of which 80
resulted fatally. The most harmful
materials were nitrogen oxide fumes
and trinltrotoluene, which. with ben
zine, caused all but three OF the fatal
polsonings. Among other injurious
substances are included nitrobenzine.
toluene, phenol, ether, mixed acids,
sulphurie acid. pierre acid, illuminate,
ammonia, mercury. nitroaphthaleues
and chlorine, but these are not likely
TO produce serious results.

FRED MITCHELL
A Team BUILDER

The success of the Chicago Cubs
under Fred Mitchell's management
has positively proved that an archi-
tect of bungalow is not an architect
of a palace" writes Ted Sullivan in
the Cincinnati Enquirer. Here was
an unknown man, who was consider
ed only lieutenant Of George Stall
ings in guiding the Boston Braves,
goes to Chicago and patches up the
heritage-in the way Of playing mate
rial of Evers, O'Day, Bresnahan and
Tinker-bequeathed to him. He molds
alb of this material into team that
looms up as a factor in the final dis
position of the National League pen
nant. Should the end of the season
bring the Chicago Nationals ahead OF
the Braves, ninety per cent of the
baseball public will think that Mitchell
was the power behind the throne in
making the Braves post season pen
nant winner. m logs
"a leader and constructor of ball
teams is born not manufactured,
coached or press made, no matter
what tutelage he was under. No man
can duplicate the personality Of an
other. We even find the assertion
demonstrated in one man trying to tell
another mans story. The changing
of the manner Of telling the story
loses its flavor in the way it, is told.
So it is in the handling Of ball
team. Some men have not the force
of butterfly in impressing their play
ers with orders. There are other
managers who can tell you how the
game should be played In all It's
strategy, and can also tell you how
the game could be won after it Is
lost IT. j. iss==
you may term this kind of men
before-thought and after-thought man
ayers. They have all the theory of
winning and losing in their heads, but
while the contest Is In action they
give their brains a vacation.
"Pat Moran for two years has made
all the star managers Of the National
League-with all their financial back
ing-come in behind him in the Ma
tional League race. October may find
Mitchell low in the race. but the base
ball public viii give him credit of
being team builder and man Of
practical baseball knowledge"
