Grimes, the National league staf de
liverer of this type of pitching, for
seven solid hits, clinched the game
before the half- way mark, anJ
topped the play; with several pieces;
of base ball strategy that demon

alertness, which -marks the difference
between a keen thinking and a me
chanical play-in g club. .1..
N Team Given Great Ovation.
That these outstanding features
were appreciated by the Cleveland
followers of the club and the middle
western section of ( the country gen
erally, has been apparent since the
day the team returned from Brook
lyn. But todav the demonstration
which ;marked the - final putout of
Myers and clinched the chamoion-
shipf for the Indians, surpassed anv
- similar scene in several seasons.
Thousands of men, boys and women,
povircd out of the bleachers aftd
stands and engulfed the victorious
1 players like a human avalanche. , It
itasa continuous battle for the
members of the team in their .march
toward the dugout, with scores of
ians endeavoring to shake hands or
pat them on th- back.,
Tris Speaker, sitting the coming
ouiDurst ot enthrUsiasnit made a dash
from centerfield toward the grand
stand where hi? mother and other
relatives ocupied a lower tier box.l
His progress waa slow, but once he
reached the rail, he vaulted over the
iron front and, into, his mother's
arm like a small schoolboy. The
scene was so unusual that lor a mo
ment there was a complete cessation
of the cheering,- which,.' however,
broke out with . treble "Vigor
wnen Mrs. Speaker twigged, patted
and kissed her-gray-haired onand
. tne latter responded - m a manner
which indicated that he regarded his
mowers approval and petting far
above any other 4-gteardi that might
come to him as a result of the vie
tory of hisj teiam in, wirtning the,

. . Speaker's Mother Cheered. ' j
, When Speaker finally left I his
mother's side and-started for the club
house, he was fairly besieged by: re
quests to shake . hands andl auto
graph programs -and , photographs.
When he finally disappeared into the
passage way of thfc. dressing quar
ters, the crowdsJ swept back to. the
, speaker dox, wherf they cheered and
demanded a speech, from' thje' mother
of the popular player-manager.
i Mrs. Speaker met the. demands of
the fans byi-wavihg her hana and
was soon joined by Owner J. C
Dunn of the Cleveland club, who ad-

team, men the throngs slowly dis
persed to discuss at the(r leisure, the
successful climax of Cleveland's 40
year battle for a-major league pen
nant and a world's series banner. -
That the citizen! of Cleveland
propose to properly honor the oc
casion, was shown; by a conference,
which took ' place-' between ' Mayor
W. S. Fitzgerald ' and prominent
business men, almost before the final
cheers had died away. It was
tentatively decided, to hold a public
reception for, the team in the public
square of the .city within the next
day or twd, at which the populace
will be invited to show its apprecia
tion of the honors which the team
has brought.to Cleveland.
Weather Conditions, Ideal
The closing act of the super-base
ball drama war staged under weath
er conditions which were ideal. A
s?un of midsummer strength shown
down from a cloudless sky with an
intensity which, made it almost im-
persative to remove coats and vests,
even in the shaded sections of the
d stands. Every seat and foot
of Ending room was cowded to
capacity long before the teams be
girt their battle,-while trees, house
tops, telegraph poles- and towering
advertising signs overlooking the
park, were black with men and boys
who clung to precarious porches
throughout the one hour and 55
minutes of action. .'.'
The paid , attendance was 27,525
and the gate receipts $83,900. It was
the largest attendance and receipts
of any of me seven games.
That those who witnessed the
closing ', contest' saw -; a game of
unusal standard is shownrby 'the-
box score, but there were features
which thrilled the thousands which
cannot be illuminated by cold fig
ures. Despite the two errors
charged to Shortstop Sewell he made
two plays which went far to elim
inate his miscues. V
In the fifth inning he stopped
Miller's smash back of second base,
while on the dead run and got the
batter with a fine throw to first, in
the same inning Coveleskie. was
almost knocked down by a line 'drive
from Grimes bat, but chased th
ball half way to third and got his
man at. the initial "bag. In Cleve
land's half of the iifth, Right Field
er Griffith made a thrilling try fir
Speaker's triple which scored Jamie-j-on.
After a long sprint he got
his finger tips on tHe - ball just as
he crashed into the stand bu could
not hold e hard hit sphert. cond
Baseman Kilduff also came in for a
round of applause in the second ses
sion when he came in on the grass
on "a full '.sprint j and scooped up
Smith's bounder which had cleared
Grimes'-head by several feet and
while off balance whipped the ball to
Koney for the out

The cotton men urged that the

ducers urged $3 a bushel for wheat
Dr. W. J Spillman, former chief of
the board of farm management of
the Department of. Agriculture, was
me of a number who advocated the
prosecution of members of the fed
eral reserve board. He charged that
they were responsible for a drive to
force down the price of wheat.
1 "It is quite clear that the federal
reserve boarl and the secretary of
the, treasury are using the authority
placed in their hands Kir toe purpose
of . manipulating the market," said
Dr. Spillman. - "'I want to raiseShe

"If we get $3a bushel it will just
about pay us for the labor and ex
pense in raising wheat," said John
Trumbull of Kansas,1 representing
the wheat growers. "The prica. of
wheat today in our country is down
to fromv$LS0 to $1.65 a bushel. It
costs $2.70 to produce it, according
to the estimates ot agricultural of
ficials in the states in our section.
"I do not knowne man in Kan
sas who is raising 50 per cent of a
hog crop, because of the losses sus
tained." .
Mr. Wannamaker scored President
Wilson and Secretary of the Treas
ury Houston for; failure to answer
letters written a week ago asking
tor a conference on the agricultural
credit situation this week.
"Tftese' letters have been written
asking conferences on the agricul
tural situation,'! said Mr. Wanna
maker. "No replies have been re
ceived. If the agricultural interests
cannot corner with the representa
tives of the peoble, God pity this
nation." ' 1 f '' r,
Dr. Wannimaker quoted from
statements of 'Secretary of the Treas

problem and 'declared fnat the defla

"If we are going on with this poli.

producer will produce only enough
for ms own farjily. ,
"Unless the secretary' of the
treasury discontinues trying to force
down (prices I want every producer
to rise up and swear that he will
not produce to the point that will

Minneapolis, Oct 12. A campaign
to combat unrest and ' discontent
among farming elements of the
Country was being put under way

Steps to instill into the people a

recognition of its importance were
urged in a report of the committee
as remedies to cure unrest on fhe

American-Japanese
Involve British Paris Paper Saysj
By FLOYD GIBBONS. , '
New l'ork Tlmm-rhtrafn Tribune Cable.
Copyright. 921).
Paris, Oct 12. With the excep
tion of several Washington dis
patches to the Londdi Times dur
ing the last week concerning the
uneasiness of the Japanese-American
situation growing out of the
California anti-Japanese legislation,
there has been little comment in the
European press, but this morning's
raris socialist newspaper, juc tf.ap
pel, prints an article signed b,y Louis
Breese, a recognized writer on world
politics. -
Wtiether or hot ttTt article is a
reflection of the " French prejudice
directed across the channel, the fact
remains that M.. Breese, in consider
ation of a Japanese-American con
flict, harks back to the Anglo-Japanese
alliance and ignores the strong
anti-Japanese 'feelings , in Australia
a.rid Canada, on which' America de
pends for an extra guarantee that
England, if not remaining neutral,
would have to side with its own race.
"A disquieting rumor has reached
us. It started in the Anglo-American
press, and we must acknowledge
that there is something to it. It is
not y& wild rumor, and howevir
monstrous it may appear, there
danger of war between the United
States and Japan.
Danger Not New,
"'This danger is not new and has
long been a subject of concern for
America. ,
"President Wilson alluded direct
ly to this danger a short time before
his illness, and in the difficulties be
tween Mexico and America, there
was discovered a trace of Japanese
interference. ,
"In the same way they uttered th
cry forward toward Mexico, forward
toward South America, the Japanese
now appear to be. turning toward the
Philippines, where they have not
hesitated to foment revolt against
the domination of the Stars ana.
Stripes. ) y
"But we areC eetting accustomd.1
to seeing Americans anxious at fixc'
periods about the Japanese menace,
while Tokio feigns the greatest sur
prise at there being any discord.

War Might
If fears of a possible'war appear
fanciful now, they will not always
be hold so. cbnslderinsr the ever-in.
creasing rivalry between America
and Japan and the intensive arma
ment plans of the two rivals. s
"Besides the racial question, there
is concernea tne mastery ot the pa
cific ocean,' which question will be
victoriously contested by the United
States.. ,
Attitude of England. ,
, "In the event of a conflict between
the United States and. Japan, there
is one great factor to be considered?
Thi9 concerns theprobable attitude
of Great Britain. Would the Anglo
Japanese alliance permit England to
remain neutral in an American-Japanese
conflict? v
"In the light of the rol played by
Great Britain )m Japan's past quar
rels With - China . and Russia, it is
feared that the ereatest world men
ace is that the Japanese-American
war might become a British war..
I he Americans arc not entirely
wrong in fhowing concern about the
eventuality pf such a contest Amer
ican anxiety showed itself plainly re
cently with regard to the renewal of
the Anglo-Japanese alliance.
"At that time a telegram from
London' contained some hint of what
the attitude of Great Britain might
be in case of war between Japan and
the United States. In part it said:
" The situation resulting from the
great war, commands serious modifi
cations in the treaty. Of the six
great nations of Europe' only one,
England, is left outstandings Facing
Eneland stands the United States,
which Japan encounters in China;
Oceania, Siberia and Korea. Japan
ese interests collide with those of
the United States, but it will not be
difficult to make Japanese interests
coincide with those of Great Britain.'
Exaggerated Reports.
"Is this conflict as imminent as we
re toldr Are we nnaing exag
gerated reports in the press? It is
necessary tor us to suppose tne latter
to be true,- but, answering the former
query, the existing condition , of
Japanese armaments permits i no
doubt as to the nature -of its inten
tions."

Armenians War On
Turks and Tartars
-. , (
Ariny Estimated at 34)000
Conscripted Since Last
SpringJakes Field. '
. Erivan, Armenia, Oct.. 12.-(By
The Associatced Press.) Armenia
has plunged into new warfare
against bands of Turks and Tartars.
Its army, commanded by General
Seboo, is estimated at 34.000 men,
who for the most part have been
conscripted since last spring. All
are able-bodied .their ages running
from 17 to 45 years.
The reason for the fighting is the
fact, that the interests of the Ar
menians and the Moslems here can
not be reconciled A bolshevik mis
sion ha? been here since the confer
ence at Baku ot representatives i
nations in Caucasia and Transcau
casia, but the Armenians are afraid
to go tolshevik, fearing that they
may be subjected to the same disor
ders that occurred at Baku recently.
The only concrete result of the Baku
conference has been a decision by
soviet agents to discontinue present
attemDts to forcibly communize Is
lamic countries, and they are confin
ing themselves to propaganda, which
is principally anti-British. ,
Tartars and Persians have been
attacking Armenia for the purpose
of establishing a corridor from Baku
to Angora, in Asia Minor. Armenia"
is in the same miserable conditkm
of her neighbors. Its population js
living from hand to mourn ana nas
developed , a sort i of . gypsy
psychology. Thousands of refugees
are always on the march, and prey
upon the starving bands of Tartars,
who also prey upon each other.

Text of Arniistice;
About Completed
Final Signature, Principals"
Insist, Will Eventually Lead
To Permanent reace.
Riga. .OctV 12.(By The As-,
sociated Press.) Experts were cn-
gaged today in completing the Uk-,
rainia text of the armistice and pre.
liminary peace treaty between Po
land and Russia and UkVaine. Com
pletion of this work was. the last
preliminary to signature of the con
vention, which was framed after 20
days' of negotiation. t i
Both Adolf Joffe, head of the Rus
sian soviet peace mission, and M.
Dombski express satisfaction with
the terms agreed upon. The bolshe
viki insist the preliminary, treaty is
much lass favorable than the peace
-fettered 1 Poland last February, and
the failure of the Poles to have a
financial settlement included jn the
preliminary "convention has' been-
generally regarded as a soviet
triumph. "M. Joffe has had much
experience at peace conferences, and
the completq agreement rachd by the
members of the soviet delegations
pave the bolshevik chairman an jid
vantage from the first.
Poland, however, obtained much,
more territory than it seemed like,
ly the conference would grant when
it opened, and many Polish observ
ers regard the corridor shutting off
Lithuania from Russia as a victory
outweighing any concessions made.
While the principals in the nego
tiations insist the terms eventually
will lead to the signature of a per
manent treaty which will permit res-
mism amonj; diplomats and observ
ers not. pariicipaiing urine conier-
ence. ,lhe french are clearly dis
satisfied and apparently desired a
continuation of the war. The tottlinpr
up of Lithuania is eenerally regarded
as a 'doubtful experiment and the
occupation of Vilna by General Zell
gouski's men has created a suspi
cion that the Polish government had
knowledge pf the plan, which has
been supported by Polish landlords
in Lithuania: v
