WiII Shake Eaith in Militaru.

London, Oct. 2 British Wireless Service).-General surprise was caused in Berlin on Saturday afternoon by the fact that the daily report from German headquarters was not signed, as usual with the name of General Ludendorff. Later the following off, cial announcement was issued:
 The emperor, accepting the request to be allowed to retire of Infantry Gen. eral Ludendorff, the first quartermas- ter general and commander in time of peace of the 18th infantry brigade has placed him on the unattached list. The emperor decided at the same time that the Lower Rhenish infantry regiment, No. 3s, of which the general has long been chief, shall bear henceforth the name of Ludendorff

a British official statement issued to- day.
 The fall of Aleppo to the British is the crowning event of the victorious campaign of General Alenby. in wh ch ne captured Jerusalem and Damascus on his way northward through Paies- tine and Syria. .Aleppo is 1855 miles north of Damascos and 70 miles east of the Mediterranean Sea
 At Aleppo the railway line from Constantinople branches, one line go- ing southward to Palestine and the other east and south to Bagdad With Aleppo in the hands of ths British the Turkish forces facing the British ar my in Mesopotamia are in a more or less precarious position. The railroad from Aleppo has been their main source of supply and the cutting ot the line at Aleppo renders it useless to the Turks.
 With the capture of Aleppo the posi- l tion of General Allenby's army is made more secure from Turkish forces while the Turkish menace to General Marshalrs forces in Mesopotamia is greatly lessened. From Aleppo the allies will be able to move northeast ward through Asia Minor and north. ward to the Black Sea. An advance northward from Aleppo would cut of the TurkishS forces in Armenia anC

MAJOR LEAGUE BALL
APPROACHES DEMISE
Annual Meeting OF National Magnates
December 10 Will Mark Finish
OF Game Until End OF War.

New York, October 2--Oficially,
major league base ball, so far as the
National league is concerned, Will be

AT that gathering the officers of the
senior organization will formally wind
up the business of the season just
ended and will not resume activity
until the close of the war, warrants
plans for the resumption of opera
tons.
According TO the opinion OF prom
Iinent ma gnates, a declaration Of peace
coming late next spring would PROVE
Of little value TO the big league clubs.
1T needs a long period of preparation
and much detail work prior TO the
opening of pennant race, and ii is
generally recognized that in the pres

fairs ii would be practically impos-
sibie to renew the complex operation

which to complete all the arrange

Some of the baseball parks have
been adapted 10 other purposes, play
ers Of the various teams have been
sea tered throughout this country and
abroad. But these are only few OF
the great difficulties that would con
front plans to resurrect the game
quickly. General opinion in infiuen-
tial quarters inciines to the belief that
a new and better brand Of profess

err time. hut it is held that much OF
this advantage would be sacrificed II
