lem is more vast. For its own reasons
our comand did not find it advisable
to give battle either on the Somme
or in Flanders after the March Of
fensive. 1t confined itself to stopping
the enemy
"Shal we accept battle this time as
we formerly accepted it on the
Marine? That is the secret of our
command. The Germans have no il
fusions as to the value of the success
they have gained. They know we
have several million picked troops
forming in maueuvering masses
which they will have to encounter
somewhere.
IF the enemy had the choice of
ground for the offensive, we have the
much more important choice of the
field of battle on which Germany's
destinies will be decided.
sit will be seen therefore that there
is no ground for alarm. We proba-
bly, are witnessing the preliminaries
to a great battle which both sides
want to be decisive. Consequently it
is comprehensive that our command
ers do not act hurriedly, but strictly
in accordance with plans agreed on"

POLICE CANNOT
find MOTHER OF
ABANDONED BABE

Up to this afternoon the police
have been unable to unearth any clue
which might lead to the identity of
the three months old baby girl which
was found by the night Waterman
of the TAFT & Sons paper mills at
1875 Railroad avenue, while he was
making his rounds last night
Martin Knatk of 16 Carson street,
the yatchman, had just arrived at the
steps leading into the offices of the
mill when he was attracted by the
1usty bawling of the child. He found
a piece of paper fastened to the
clothing of the infant upon which
was printed in ink letters, 'Baby's
father has run away. Hope you will
give her good home"
Knatk turned the child over to
Patrolman Thomas Smallwood, who
placed the infant in charge of DR..
Maxwell of the Emergency hospital
After vain efforts by the police to
find the childs parents she was sent
to st. Vincent's hospital.

SPORTING CHATTER

This is the 47th anniversary of the
birth of Amos Rusie, a name recog-
nized by the older fans as that of one
of the greatest slab artists in base
ball history. Rusie was born May
81, 1871, in Indianapolis, and spent
the greater part of his illustrious dia-
mond career in the uniform of the
New York Giants. The old hero is
linked with the present by reason of
the fact that he figured in the deal
which added Christy Mathewson to
the pitching staff of the New York
club. Mathewson at that time had
narrow escape from going to Cincin-
natl. where he is now, and glad of
it-as manager of the Reds.
Back in 1901 a young pitcher who
answered to the name of Christopher
Mathewson was drafted from the
Virginia State League by Cincinnati
At that time Rusie was still pitching
for the Giants, but he was a falling
star. The Gotham pilot realized thai
Amos good arm was failing, and wher

was completed before the 1901 season
opened, and Mathewson thus made
his major league debut in a New
York uniform. A year or two pass

that he had in him.

COMMANDMENT

bats have not yet oeen reported.
An American aviator was captured
by the Germans in No Mans Land
after his machine had been damaged
in a fight between five American ma
chimes and German squadron. The
American aviator was last seen going
into the enemy trenches under cover
of German rifles.
Enemy airmen were active last
night and this morning, bombing vii
lagos behind our lines without regard
to military detectives
American forces northwest of Toul
carried out successful raid against
against the German lines late last
night.
The American troops went over the
top along a front of 500 yards. At the
same time the American artillery
opened fire. The men advanced be-
hind the barrage, while the guns
pounded the enemy lines and rear
areas.
Engineers blew up the enemy en-
tanglements. The infantry swarmed
through the defenses, where there
was lighting in which the Germans
suffered losses.
Two prisoners were taken by the
Americans. One of them attempted
to escape on the way across No Man
Land and was killed by a Massachu-
sets corporal.

Mrs. Louis Wasbuste, a sister of
Florence Brooks, who was also ar
rested, was sent to the Bridgeport
hospital to be repaired after being
beaten and bitten in a free for all
fight which occurred among the three
women.
No one seems able to tell how OF
for what reason the three women
fought with such ferocity, but COM
plants have been coming into the Sec
ond precinct by the score for several
weeks about the women and the f1at
conducted by Elizabeth Beauege
When the trouble started last night
the noise of the battle could be heard
for almost a block and the policemen
had to batter their way through the
doors in order to unscramble the
three furies.

CALL 100000
men FOR ARMY
UPON June "a

Washington, May 31-Officia1 an
nouncement was made today that
$4,000 men will be called to the
colors during June.
They will be ordered to report June
"a, but it has not yet been determin-
ed to what camps they can be assign
eed, so the list of appointments is
for the present withheld.
The quota is based on estimates of
the space available for the men in
camps and environments. If the rate
of shipment of troops across again is
raised still more men may be called
In any event the probabilities are
that enough men will be called for
special service to round the number
out to 100000.

FIsTIC HISTORY

The high cost of living may serve
as a partial excuse for the exhorbitant
financial demands of the present crop
of fighters, but the true friends of the
game would like to see the fighters
manifest a little more sporting spirit
and little less commercialism. In
the old days real world champions
were satisfied with smaller purses
than are now demanded by third
rate has-beens or never-will-
For example, there was the Paddy
Ryan-Joe Goss battle for the heavy
weight championship of the world,
which was pulled off at Collier Sta
ton, W. Va, just thirty-eight years
ago today, May 80, 1880. 1t was
fought out with bare knuckles and
went to eighty-seven rounds before
Ryan won the victory and the title.
There isn't heavyweight living to-
day who would go through such an
ordeal for less than fifty thousand
dollars-and you can't blame them a
great deal, at that. Yet Ryan clean
ed up less than $3.50 for his hard won
victory. Nobody wants to revive the
bare-fist game, and it is to the credit
of present day fans that they have
no desire for such long and gruelling
exhibitions. At the same time, q
little love of sport and sterling hon
esty of those old gladiators would
work a decided improvement in the
boxers of today.
Ryans case was by no means ex-
| ceptional. ''NonpareiI jack Demp-
sey cleared only SO or so from one
of his hardest battles. Heenar
made trip to England to fight Say
ers for the championship of the
world, for which he got thousand
| dollars, out of which he had to pay
his own expenses. Sullivan received
much less than that for whipping
Ryan in Mississippi
All of which is respectfully called
to the attention of Jess Willard.

STEEL men ARE
WILLING TO Be
TAXED HEAvILy

New York, May 31.-Elbert H. Gary,
president of the American Iron and
Steel Institute, speaking at the con-
vention of that body here today, de-
clared that the United States govern
ment and the steel producers were
now working in complete harmony
and understanding and that all sus-
picion toward the industry had been
dissipated.
Judge Gary, discussing the ques-
ton of taxation, said there was talk Of
doubling excess profits and income
taxes and expressed the opinion that
steel men were willing to be heavily
taxed to defend the rights and liberties
of the world, provided the levies were
equitably distributed and the money
wisely expended.
