were Offered by manufacturers, and the department
said 1T wasn't interested, the truth is that the guns
were Old style-some made for Russia. And the de-
partment didn't want these, wouldn't try them and
: wasn't interested" in junk
1t has appeared in the testimony already that the
machine gun finally adopted is, according to some OF
our highest experts, the best made anywhere = the
Browning gum
But the matter goes back of that When North
cl1ffe came here representing the British govern
ment his whole cry give ships, more ships,
and still more ships''
He said they had man-power enough and didn't ex-
pect an American army inside of 18 months The al
lies wanted ships, food and fuel ahead of soldiers.
Everything depended upon ships And the govern
ment based its transportation of soldiers and supplies
on the shipping situation 1t knew how fast it could
send soldiers across, and has worked according to
schedule
There came time when there was hurryup call
for an American army-and ahead of the request of
the allies previously made thru their representatives
in this country. That was when the French morale
was believed to be low, and it was believed nothing
would strengthen that morale much as the appear
ance of an American army in France.
Then Pershing and his army of reguars-who had
been seasoned on the border and in Mexico hur
ned across. Their appearance did the work. French
and British morale perked up
Since that time men have been going over just as
rapidly as the shipping situation would permt-and
they supplied and equipped as fast as they could
be transported
But Baker never backed up in his determination
announced early in the game-that American soldiers
would not go the firing line in France until thoroy
trained, seasoned and fit to fight.
Those who are over there have continued their
training and seasoning in France. They fully
equipped and supplied-and Baker has taken every
possible precaution to protect, so far is humanity
possible their health and their chances to back
home when the war is won
None of the delays in getting either rifles or ma
chine guns has interefered with the original program
- No American army expected to go onto thc fir
ing line before the spring of 1918 The allies didn't
expect it, and didn't ask for it. Everything will be
done according to schedule everything soldiers
need will be hand in abundance before it is needed
They will have the best rifles the best machine guns
the best munitions the best clothing the best food and
the best generalship the war department can get.
The relatives and friends of soldiers in France
should not permit politicians to brighten them. The
truth will all come out and it will prove that
rotary of war has refused to be budged an inch by
political pressure from his understanding of his duty
to the American soldiers abroad.
The present furry is political plot that has been
Matching for months. It is that and nothing more.

BUFFALO. August 25.-One touch of
football weather kept many fans away
from tho baseball park to-day. but that
did not prevent the Bisons from TAX
ing two games away from Richmond,
the scores being to 2 and 2 to 0. En-
gel and Tyson were the winning pitch
ers. The former held the visitors to
Ave hits, while six were found in the
lattePs mixture. Richmond outhit the
Bisons in the getaway half. but they
did not make the best of their clouts,
and went into the iaIsomine tub for
that slight oversight.
Engel twirled splendid game. but
had one wavering spell when he walk
ed three Of the visitors. one after the
other. These gifts with the sacrifice
flies of McGaf1gdI and Bankston en-
ab1ed the visitors TO steer clear of the
whitewash pail in the first game. They
did get Eibel around to third in their
second, but after that, cutting out the
sixth. their journeys terminated at
second base. They made two such
trips.
Enrisht was troubled with base run
ners for tho greater part Of his work
In the box. A walk. sacrifice, and an
out had Kopp at third in the opening
period. A walk to Hurnmel, followed
by the singles of Mcdonald and Daily,
scored the first baseman. who was hon.
ored by having Jack Hummel day
and who received gifts. Days crack
was far enough out in the field to al
low Mcdonald to follow FUNNEL over
the home plate.
Steinfe1dt. the local boy. started the
fifth with lusty triple. Days second
hit sent the right-f home.
The scoring did not end there. Gill
and c.arlstrom hit to right, Daily and
Gill getting home in safety. Although
Hummel hit for two bases in the sixth,
and Jackson did the same thing in the
eighth there was no scoring on the part
of the Bisons. Young Donahue held
Buffalo to four hits in the second game,
and still was beaten. This was not
the pitchers fault. but that of his
teammates who failed to take advan-
tage of a splendid opportunity to 1T
least tie the score. 1t was pitchers
battle between Tyson and Donahue.
Tho batters could not get much out
of their curves. Gill being the only
player to secure an extra base hit,
q two-bagger in the fifth.
Two singles in the second set Buffalo
in front at the close of the second.
Jackson cracked a one-bagger to start
the tally, but went down at second on
