BOSTON PLAYERS
DISCIPLINED FOR
BARNSTORMING
Champions Who Participated
in After Season Games De
prived of Individual
Emblems.
Icago, Oct. 4. The National
Base Ball commission has decided to
"discipline property" members of the
championship Hoston club, who,
after the world's series, engaged in
a barnstorming trip under the name
of "Red Sox," President Johnson of
the American League announced to
night. "Bullet Joe" Bush, the pitcher,
Schang, Strunk and Mayer are
among the players under investiga
tion. President Johnson did not in
dicate what measures would be taken
to punish them. Exhibition games
were played in violation of the com
mission's orders to disband at the
close of the series.
President Johnson also said that
the commission had practically de
tided to 'deprive Boston players of
:he individual emblems usually prev
lented to the world's series winners
because of the part they played in
staging the "strike" before the fifth
game of the series. The strike was
a demonstration intended to compel
the commission to increase the play
ers' share of the receipts.

The Central squad received their
death sentence before the game
started when Eaton, Hall and Shan

the season for failure to carry a suf

The Belgian coast has been under

1.000 yards southeast of the Chap-elle-Roulers
road.
Civilians are being moved Jn a

of Ypres.
The country behind the German
lines in Flanders is ablaze virtually
everywhere. From prisoners comes
the information that the Germans
are making hurried preparations to
evacuate the dune country of Bel

There are no signs of fresh Ger

"Nothing would surprise us. Thia

gave them their own German ra
tions, which invariably were bad
and unfit to eat.
It was on the 28th of September
that the Germans ordered the vil
lagers of Ledeghem to evacuate the
place, but many of them hid in cel
lars or in the suburbs of the town,
where they remained until the Brit
ish entered. The Germans told the
villagers that they would like to
surrender to the Scotch troops, but
that the Scots had the nasty habit
of cutting the throats of the Ger
mans when they caught them, and
therefore they were afraid to take
a chance.
The Germans, the villagers said,
also told them terrible things the
British, would do to the villagers
when they entered the town.
According to the villagers many
German horses have died in Flan
ders because there was no food of
any kind for them and the German
automobiles all are running on their
rims because the Germans have no
tires.

To date inspectors have been ap

So well has the potato inspection
plan taken that railroads are giving
every assistance by discouraging
shipments of potatoes that do not
bear the inspectioni certificate. How
ever, if the grower insists upon ship

that the car contains ungraded po
