'Jack Ness, playing with Oakland, made a world's record with hits in fifty-four consecutive games. Sev eral professional ball players have hit safely in twenty to twenty-five games. But it is seldom done in amateur circles. In the first place, few amateur teams play more than twenty games durii a season. That is the number in which Corcoran has played. And he hit safely in every game in which he appeared this year. Corcoran is easily the class of all thirdsacker in Omaha amateur cir cles. Some candlot critics believe he is the best amateur ball player in Omaha. He is a sure fielder, has a whip like a rifle shot and he hits 'cm a mile. None of Corcoran's hits have been scratchy ones, or of the infield variety, for he clubs 'em when he's at the bat and extra base hits are his specialty. Corcoran is one man at least upon whom the Armours can depend at Minneapolis Sunday. Armours' fans are firm in their belief that he will add another game to his batting record and that his fielding will be all that could be asked. Not only is Corcoran a star in the field, but he is one of the most popu lar sandlot athletes in the city. Totals. 30 (3(11 1 Totals.,33 10 27 15 t Two oat when winning run scored.

Complete Report Asked for In Engineer Popper's Case Mukden, Manchuria, July 15. In formal negotiations concerning what is known as the Popper case? are un-. derstood to be going on between the United States and Japan. The case, which involves J. E. Pop per, an American engineer, had its origin on August 30, 1916, when Mr. Popper, who was in the employ of the Chinese provincial government, is said to have been assaulted by Japanese coolies in the international settlement. The American contention is that Mr. Popper, observing that several of the Chinese linesmen in the employ of the Mukden Electric works, of which he has charge, were being molested by Japanese coolies, requested the Japanese to desist. The Japanese turned upon Mr. Pop per, it is asserted, and clubbed and beat him almost to insensibility. He was rescued by the American vice consul, who was hurriedly called to the scene. It is claimed that the Japanese con sul-general volunteered an apology for the incident, but as it was not made, the consul was asked to try the case in the Japanese consular court. After some difficulty Mr. Popper se cured the services of a Japanese law yer to represent him. ' After a hear-, mg it was announced that the lawyer had informed the court that Mr. Pop per had withdrawn his complaint, though Mr. Popper declares he gave no such authority. It is understood that the authori ties at Washington have become in terested in the case and have asked for complete report. , The American consulate requested that the case be reopened, but the Japanese consul replied that this was not possible, as the affair was closed.

Sailors Display Heroism . Facing U-Boat Attacks (Correspondence of The Assooiated Press.) London, July 15. Germany's pres ent method of sea warfare is one of despair, declared Admiral Sir John Jellicoe, first lord of the British ad miralty, in a public address the other day. "The navy, assisted by the other allies, is doing its best and right well is the American navy helping us," he continued. "Even the admiralty is do ing its best, assisted by a good deal of celticism." Admiral Jellicoe was speaking at a meeting held to inaugurate a move ment to establish a fund for sailors to be called "King George's Fund for Sailors," under the presidency of Acting Lieutenant Prince George. Paying a warm tribute to the Brit ish merchant marine, the admiral said the sailor never knew a moment when the ship might not be sunk under him and he very seldom saw the enemy which sank him. At the best he took to the boats often 100 to 200 miles from shore and often underwent ter rible experiences because the enemy shelled the boats frequently after the men got into them. The only effect of that treatment on the British sailor was to make him keen, to get back to sea again to have a chance of getting his own back again. Sir John gave some instances of the spirit which he said animated the sail ers of the mercantile marine. Among them were the following: The Anglo-Californian was at tacked and shelled for two and a half hours by a submarine. After the at tack had lasted one and a half hours and the ship had been hitMrequently, the captain decided that any attempt to save his vessel was hopeless. As it was being abandoned he inter cepted a wireless message from a de stroyer ordering him to hold on as long as possible. The captain and the ship's company pTomptly went back to their vessel. The submarine contnued to shell the ship, the mas ter and eight hands were killed and seven of the crew were wounde'd, but the ship returned to port. The steamer Palm Beach was at tacked by a submarine and hit in sev eral places, and two members of the crew were injured. A young appren tice who was wounded remained at the wheel throughout the attack and refused to leave his post, and the ves sel was brought in in safety. She was later armed with a gun and sank one of the two submarines which attacked her. In the Adriatic recently three Aus trian cruisers came up to one of the drifters named Gowanlee, and sum moned her to surrender. The captain, with a six-pounder gun, engaged the cruisers and brought his ship away in safety. - One of the deck hands had his lee shattered, but continued to work and fire his gun throughout the action. APPEAL TO WILSON FOR EXEMPTIONS More Than One1 Thousand Claims Have Been Filed With President on Indus trial Grounds. Washington, Sept. 12. More than 1,000 claims for army exerhption on the ground the claimant is indispen sable to a war industry, appealed to the president, the final judge of such cases, were on file today at the office of Provost Marshal General Crow der and others are coming in. Preliminary examination is being made by General Crowder, on whose final recommendation the president probably will act. The general laid emphasis today on theTact that only industrial exemption claims may be appealed to the president from dis trict boards and that personal hearings before the authorities acting for the the president will not be given. Evi dence wili be limited to that already presented to district boards and it will avail claimants nothing to em ploy attorneys or other agents to press their pleas. Hubrecht Says Fear Not Cause of Larger Dutch Navy (Correspondence of The Associated Press.) Tokio, July 20. "It is not because of fear of Japan or any other particu lar nation that the Dutch govern ment recently voted to increase its naval forces for the protection of Holland's possessions in the Orient," was the statement attributed to J. B. Hubrecht, nev-ly arrived secretary of the Holland legation, in an interview, published here. "I can assure you," continued Mr. Hubrecht, "that the popular senti ment of my country toward Japan is genuinely friendly, and the desire is. strong to see the economic and commercial relationship between Ja pan and the Dutch East Indies be come tighter. The open door is the policy of Holland in developing those possessions and Japanese capital is welcomed just as equally as French, British, American or any other. He concluded: "With the tremen dous commercial interests and the enormous amount of capital invested not only by Holland but by other countries as well, those islands call for sufficient protection. The present war has taught a lesson that even a small country needs to show that it is prepared. Holland feels that it is bound by the universal code of ethics and political honor to do all it can to safeguard the interests of those possessions which are of great worth to all the countries of the world, and to help the Japanese to develop into a strong and capable people.'
