America has not gone through the ordeal of seeing maimcd and crippled soldiers re-
 mumg-thosc who will be crippled and
 lisrigmcd for the remainder of their days; but she will see such sights before many months and that is one reason why every one should do his bit now and continue to do it so long as the war lasts, The better backing given our soldiers on the front, the sooner the war will be over and the soon cr it is over the fewer shot-up men will be drifting back to harrow up our sympathcs.

NATIONAL LEAGUE GIVES PLAYERS'
 FRAT. THE MI11
American League Expected to Take Similar Action at
 Today's Session.

New York, Feb. 13.-The National league and the Baseball Players fraternity came to tine parting of the ways here late today.
 While Manager John McGraw of the New York club and President David l.. Fultz of the players association were in secret conference, endeavor- ing to reach a common ground upon which the so-called strike order of the baseball players might be comp ronfised, the league passed unan.i- mously a resolution abrogating the agreement made with the players fra ternity at Cincinnati on January G. 1914, and when McGraw returned to the meeting it first appeared as if his self-impoSed mission had been in vain.
 Later, President Tener explained that the league would not longer rec ognize the players organization, and that all deals in future will be made with the players as individuals, but that fraternity members would not be discriminated against. As this was the principal request by Fultz in con- ference with McGraw as a guarantee looking toward the lifting of the strike order, insofar as it effects tho major leagues, it appeared his request had received consideration.
 FultZ refused to state what action the fraternity would take until he consults with other officers of the organization.
 President Tener said the American league would take similar action with regard to the fraternity at it's meet ing tomorrow, and that the national commission would have no further dealings with the players organiza- tiOn

STUTTGART BASKET BALL
 TEAM HERE ON FRIDAY
High School Elves Will Contest at Y. VI. (. \. for Lead in State
 COmDptitiOn.

The basket bail team of the high school will lock horns with the strong Stuttgart team at the Y. NJ. c. A. here Friday night at 8 o'clock.
 Stuttgart has already defeated the Little Rock team and is bidding for championship honors this season. This will be the last game for the locals on their own floor this season, as they go to Stuttgart the following week. and the week after is the state tourna- ment. 1
 The locals are putting up a grand article of ball now and are expecting to play the basketeers from the rice city off their feet. The teams are old rivals and a good game is always the result when they get together. For two seasons Stuttgart held the cham pionship of the. state, but lost it to Jonesboro. This season they are after the honors again. These series of games will decide the race to certain extent.
 The games on the local court al ways prove interesting, and a large crowd of students will be ready to cheer the boys to victory. A number Ol DOOStllS yOuHSolCIS . oAC out oOiiiA'o tickets. All above the necessary eX- penses will be used to pay the way to the tournament at Little Rock March ? and 3.
 The high team is one of the best in years and should be encouraged by big crowd at the game. "Blutch' Jones, captain of the team. is proving a tower of strength at forward, as is Heinie Mccain at center. Heinie is the best center in the state, and these two husky fellows, with the one best guard in the state, Red" Quinn, ought to make it hard for any team to beat Pine Bluff. Stuttgart will be strong and a crowd ought to see the last game of the season.

was instructed today to ascertain whether the submarines operating under the Turkish flag were under the same instructions as are those of Germany and Austria.
 Serious difficulties with Turkey al- ready exist, over the interference with Armenian and Syrian relief and the detention of more than 1000 Ameri- can refugees. It developed today that no messages have been received at the state department since the break with Germany from either Ambassa- dor Elkus at Turkey or Consul-Ge Gen- eral Murphy at Sofia, who cares for American interests throughout Bull garia. All cables to and from both points must go through Vienna. but officials have no indication as to whether they are held up there or by the local Bulgarian and Turkish au- thorities.
 Relief Ships Held Up.
 Meanwhile, the naval collier Caesar loaded with food and clothing contrib uted by Americans for the relief of Armenians and Syrians, and the
  plies, are lying at anchorage in Alex andria harbor, unable to continue their voyage to Beirut because of un- certainty as to what greeting they will meet. They are long overdue at Bairut, where they were not only to unload their supplies for the destitute Syrians, but also to take on board the detaine dAmericans. Heretofore, ap- peals to Germany have been efficace- ous in instances where it was de- sired to bring pressure to bear on Turkey, but the employment of such means now would be embarrassing, if not out of the question.
 Proceeding Carefully.
 It was explained after the cabinet meeting that full reports on the treat ment of German sailors on war bound ships was awaited. so as to make sure no subordinate official had exceeded his authority in dealing with ships or their crews The governments in- structions have been that legal techni- calities should be waived in order to avoid any appearance of depriving the Germans of their full rights. This has been done in all parts of the continental United States, and where officials in the Philippines and else where where the authorities have un- dertaken to guard against the ships becoming menaces to navigation, or ders have been issued to confine such efforts strictly to surveillance, with action only when essential.
 Germany's detention of the Yarrow- dale prisoners. who had previously been reported released, has aroused the keenest indignation, the incident almost overshadowing others in the present grave situation.
