FRESH TROUBLES
BESET HUN HEADS
Officials Claim Counter-Revo-

in German Capital.

BERLIN, Aug. 3O.-There was a
disposition in conservative quareers
Tuesday 10 minimize the dangers Of
counter-revolution DESPITE the anX-
iety on the part Of governmental
officials and warnings in the press
Il was pointed out that. while the
alarm cry has gone up that the re
public is in danger, there has not
been a single concrete plan for an
uprising on the part OF either the
militarists or the communists.
The fresh troubles besetting the
republican government have arisen
from the Matthias Erzberger inc
dent.
The democratic press states the
assassination was a definite develop
ment in the plans and the plots Of
the militarists and royalists against
the Ebert government.
Call on With.
A delegation of labor union lead
ers have called upon Chancellor
Wirth and demanded reorganization
of the Reichwier and dismissal of
the anti-repubIican officers so they
could not be utilized in a royalist
uprising. The laborites also seek an
investigation Of the judiciary, claim
ing that militarists were being ac-
quilted and severe terms or irn-
Lrisonment were being imposed on
socialists and communist sympa-
thizers. The patriotic soldiers as
sociation has served an ultimatum
upon the government demanding
that the proposed socialist demon
stration tomorrow be prevented.
Chancellor W-rth has promiaed
the democratic element that she
government will preserve order.
The socialists are planning a gi-
gan1c demonstration tomorrow to
protest against a nationalist activ-
ity.

AS averages are going now in the

Different In National.
1t is going to be different in the
National. A lot of the old fellows
have taken a slide toward the cellar.
In the altitude where the old boys
performed in 1920 and the years i'm
mediately preceding there is lot of
new names which have not become
familiar to the public in general.

named of the Phillies. are the three
most normal batters in the National
this year.
Twombly of the Chicaeos. Scott of
Boston Marriott of Chicago and
Schamandt of Brooklyn are samples
of some of the newcomers. Roush
is not likely to be a league leader
this year, or anywhere near 1t. and
even players like Fournier of St
Louis. McHenry of the same club AMI
Bigbee of Pittsburgh have gone away
from him. No wonder that champion
ships are not won where it is eX-
pected they will be.
The biggest freak batter in the Ma

of a life's work. He never hit any
thing like it before in his lie.
