New York, May 1.-President Ban
Johnson of the American League an
nounced this afternoon that In case
the war continued until next spring
there would be no attempt to open the
1918 pennant season.
Mr.. Johnson stated his belief that a
majority of the American League play
ers were eligible, under the proposed
terms of the CONSUMPTION laws. and
would be called upon to serve in the
army.
Mr.. Johnson will leave for Washing
ton tonight to confer with government
authorities regarding the proposed tax
to be imposed upon baseball clubs and
the question of the enlistment of play
ers will also be discussed.
President John X. Tener of the Ma
tional League said that he had not
discussed the proposition to drop base
ball at the close of the present season
, and that such action would depend
upon the developments of the next few
months.
He stated it as his opinion that the
young men Of the states would be call
ed upon to serve with the army and
navy and that the ball players of both
the major and minor leagues would
naturally be conscripted owing to
their excellent physical condition.
Every man connected with baseball
both player and magnate-wants to
do his share" said President Tener.
and just as soon as we know what
the government expects of us We will
prepare for action"

CHAPTER III
In the Vortex

ITNHE van, one among a score of similar
i vehicles. was backed against the curb
Of a raised path. At the instant Dalroy
quilted the window ledge a railway em-
ploye appeared from behind another van on
the left and was clearly bewildered by see-
ing well-dressed man springing from such
an unusual and precarious perch.
The newcomer, n big. burly fellow, who
wore a peaked and lettered cap a blouse,
baggy breeches and sabots, and carried a
lighted handlamp, looked what in fact he
was-an engine cleaner In all likelihood
he guessed that any one choosing such a
curious exit from waiting room was avoid
ing official scrutiny. He hurried forward
at once. holding the lamp above his head,
because II was dark behind the row Of vans.
Hi there :" he cried. "A word with you,
Freiherr !" The title, OF course was bit
of German humor. Obviously he was bent
on investigating matters. Dalroy did not
run. In the street without he heard the
tramp Of marching troops the jolting OF
wagons, the clatter of horses. He knew that
a hue and cry could have only one result
he would be pulled down by score Of
hands Moreover. with the sight Of that
suspicious Teuton face, its customary
boorish leer now replaced by a surly in
quisitiveness, came the first glimmer OF
fantastically daring way of rescuing Irene
Beresford.
He advanced, smiling pleasantly. TITS all
right, Heinrich" he said. i've arrived by
train from Berlin, and the station was
crowded. Being an acrobat, took bounce.
What?"
The engine cleaner was not a quick-witted
person He scOwled. but allowed Dalroy to
come near-too near
Il believe you're a verdammt Engi--''
he began.
But the popular German description OF a
Briton died on his lips, because Dalroy put
a good deal of science and no small leaven
of brute force into a straight punch which
reached that cluster of nerves known to
pugilism as the point" The German fell
as though he had been pole-axed. and his
thick skull ratified on the pavement
Daroy grabbed the lamp before the oil
could gush out, placed il upright on tho
ground, and divested the man Of blouse
baggy breeches and sabots Luckily since
every second was precious, he found that
he was able to wedge his boots into the
sabots, which he could not have kept on
his feet otherwise. His training as a soldier
had taught him the exceeding value Of our
Fifth Henrys advice TO the British army
gathered before Harfieur
In peace thers nothing so becomes a man
As modest supnshs and humility
But when the slaEt Of war blows In our ears
Then initiate ths action Of the tiger.
The warning tiger does not move slowly.
Half a minute after his would-be captor had
crashed headlong TO the hard cobbies Of
Aix-la-Chapelle. Dalroy was creeping be-
tween two wagons, completing hasty toilet
by tearing off collar and tie, and smearlnr
his face and hands with oil and grease from
lamp and cap. Even as he we.lt he heard n
window OF the waiting room being nune
open, and the excited cries which announeod
the discovery OF half-naked body lying
beneath in the gloom
