sHIPBUILDERs GIVE SIDE.
Tell House Committee Price Limit OF
Warships Is Too Low.

Representatives of five largest ship
building concerns told the House COM
mittee on naval affairs yesterday their
reasons for not wanting to take govern
ment contracts for warship building at
present prices. Briefly, the limit of
S16.509. 900 for each of the five ships re-
manning in the enlarged building program
is not enough for the private builders. At
the same time. these concerns stated yes
terday through their representatives that
the Navy Department recommendations
to equip navy yards to build the ships is
not in the public interest. 1t was shown
that the Fore River Shipbuilong Com
pany and the Union Iron Company had
offered to build the ships at any price
considered fair by. the federal trade COM
mission.

MANY WAR HOAXES
 STARTLE NATIONS
(NeW York Sum-


 Probably the greatest hoax Of the war-one which millions believed, for a time at least-Was the story that from 10000 to 100000 Russian troops had arrived in England from Archangel. These troops, so the early stories ran, were moved by night across the United Kingdom in cars with the shades drawn down and at any movement were likely to appear on the western front with the troops of Great Britian, France and Belgium
 The story was first printed in New York. It spread throughout America and was cabled abroad and doubtless sent by wireless to Berlin. The Eng fish censorship offered no official de nial or affirmation of the story, but for time every steamship from Eng land reaching New York brought some individual who imagined he had seen the trains. Kitchener let the hoax run without doing anything to stop it. Whether it had any effect on the Germans it is hard to tell, but amateur strategists conducting the war from office chairs saw great pos abilities in it to stop the great Ger man drive on Paris.

Republican A. P. Leased Wire1

{ CHICAGO, Dec. 1S.-Little change from unofficial figures in American league batting in 1917 was revealed when the official averages were given out here from the office of E. B. John son, president of the league today.
 Ty Cobb with 1883 is undisputed champion, his nearest rival among the
 regulars being George Sisler. of St. Louis, who topped Iris Speaker of Cleveland, for second place, py just one point. Sisler, hit .S53. Three members of the Worlds Champion White Sox landed in the 300 list, the men being Murphy with .314, Felsch 1908 and Jackson 1901. All together nineteen players hit. 800 or better, but eight of tuese took part in less than 55 games.
 Cobb led the league, not only in the general averages but also in stolen bases, with d total of 55 and in the total number of hits. He registered 225 safe blows for total of 336 bases. His mark of A two -baggers and 23 triples were the best in the league
 Pipp of New York led the league in circuit blows with nine, while Veach ot Detroit, was one behinl him.
 Bush a third Detroit player was first in total runs scored with 112. Cobt was second with five less.
 The Detroit team, fortified by these performances by its offensive stars | lead the league in club batting with ar average of .259. The tail-enders Phila. delphia, were second with .o54 and the | champion White Sox were third witt 1 .253.

submission, that secured the greatest laugh for his adventure. The 23-year- old son of an English father and 2 German mother, he stole on board the Matoppo and with the aid of re- volver held up the captain.
 Hodson after capturing the ship was more interested in getting some thing to eat than in anything else. fol he had gone without food for three days. As result a cake intended to be eaten in celebration of British vic tories was cut up at once for his con sumption. Sleep finally led to Hod. sons capture, but the episode amused America and doubtless Germany.
 What amounted to a practical jokt was played on the Germans by the Belgians in Brussels. The Germans announced a grand concert of German music at the opera house. A syndicate of Belgian bankers and brokers boughi all the seats except one and the roya' box. General Baron von Bissing was delighted at this evidence that the Bel gians were not averse in times of for eign occupation to listen to a German concert. But on the night of the con 1 cert not a single Belgian used hi: l ticket. When Won Bissing arrived al i the opera house it was empty save fol
