Hold ElIer in Bad

BROOKLYN, July 29.-Hod Eller,
Cincy pitcher, is likely to be ar
rested before the Reds series here
ends to answer q charge of assault
and battery. The Cincy players
were going into the grounds yester-
day before the game and some of
them passed former soldier who
was making his way into the park
accompanied by his wife. In a jok-
ing way he said to Eller:
"WeII, there is one you are going to
lose"
The Red pitcher replied hastily
and the argument wound up by his
hitting the rOOter a severe blow in
the face.
The soldier had been gassed and
was in poor condition to put up
battle, so only the one blow was
struck. He left the grounds at once
without giving his name and said
that he was going to have a warrent
sworn out for Eller's arrest.

THE underworld in our large cities
may be rotten, but an American has
reason to be less ashamed of that than
of the conditions of graft, rapacity and
coarse theft committed directly under
the nose of our national government
by the aircraft and ship building con-
Germs now under investigation by con-
gress. The revelations must bring a
blush of shame to the face of every
upright citizen, both for the men who
committed the crimes and for the gov
eminent that could become a victim of
such an outrage. Two billions squan-
dered while the rest of us ate barley
bread to save money for the govern
ment. There are places in this world
where parties guilty of lesser crimes
have been given hemp halter as the
proper decoration for their rascality

Spread Of Bathing In Europe.

Bathing came to Europe as one OF
the good results of the Crusades. The
Knights of the Cross found baths in
general use among the Saracens, and
seeing what good things they were,
on returning from those wars took the
initiative for their introduction. In
this they were highly successful first
I'm England and from that TO other
countries. So popular did the bath be-
come that it became customary to have
one before ceremonies such as mar
riage or knighthood, and the people
have been ever since learning the value
Of keeping their skins clean.

IT WILL be interesting to see what
happens to the Capper bill if it ever
reaches the u. S. senate. The bill pro-
poses to stop manipulators in market
by collecting tax of 10 per cent on
futures" trading in cotton and food
stuffs, except to traders having fed
eral license. Senator Capper claims
that his bill, if enacted into law, would
effectually stop board of trade gambl-
ing. He may be right; though there is
danger that his bill may be stopped be-
fore it becomes law. 1t has happen
ed before that bill of real merit did
not become a law

PLANS for the establishment in this
country of 81, 900, 600, 900 commercial
credit for Germany is winning support
in the big press on the ground that this
credit would enable Germany to get
her raw material in this country and
thus open large market for our sur
lups and stimulate business. 1t is ar
gued that this move on the part of the
U. S.. would enable Germany to put her
army of laborers to work and give her
a chance to pay off her war indemni-
ties, thus also benefting her creditors
in Europe, and enable these to pay our
government the 81, 900, 600, 600 Dor
rowed during the war. The tobacco
industry would welcome such an ar.
rangement; Germany is in need of to-
bacco.

increase in the cost goes to the rail
