To this end, Attorney-General Greg- ory announced tonight, it is likely that a number of exemptions may be issued in the case of Germans, long resident in poulous districts and known to be of peaceful intent, who would otherwise be required to change their place of residence -to quarters more than one-half mile removed from forti- fications and arsenals. CABINET DISCUSSED MANY PHASES OF WAR ACTIVITIES Most Pressing Needs Are Foodstuffs and Ocean Going Vessels. Washington, April 10. — President Wilson and his cabinet at today’s meeting reviewed the many phases of war activities, found that every step possible to equip the army and navy and turn out munitions is under way, and decided that the most pressing needs of the nation now are to in- crease the .supply of foodstuffs and ocean-going vessels, and to raise suf- ficlent money to finance America’s part in the war and make liberal loans to the entente allies. For present activities the allies are understood to be well supplied with manitions, and to have as many men in-the field as they can equip and feed under present conditions. Through a “co-ordination_of the munitions in- dustry in the United States and the raising of ‘a Jarge army, the United States will be in a position later to supply may need in either field. Shipments of fresh and cured meats trom Chicago last week totaled 44,313, 000 pounds. BRUSH YOUR TEETH WITH LBODON AND THEY'LL BE CLEAN There no mystery about ALBODON DENTAL CREAM.

For the first time In the history of either of these baseball organizations the pennant races will be inaugurated while the nation is in a state of war. But once in the forty-one years of the senior league existence has war been proclaimed and in the case of the Spanish-American conflict the decla- ration was made six-days after beginning of the season. The opening games of the 1898 race were played on April 15 and the signing of the war proclagnation came on April 21. Sinte the formation of the American leagu in 1900, the junior organization h: never been confronted with condition: such as preval today. The league executives and club own ers are loath to predict the effect of the preseCnt international complica- tions upon the national game. In a general way they believe baseball is facing a_fairly prosperous season, but expect the receipts and attendance to fall below estimates made before the developments of the past few weeks. Precedents upon which-to base calcu- lations in the present situation are few. During the Spanish-American war baseball experienced 1§:le if any setback. Last summer the Interna- tional league clubs in Canada enjoyed marked prosperity notwithstanding that a large proportion of young Canadians were in training or in the trenche: % Unusually close races are expected in both leagues. The clubs of both SHORT SELLING MARKET. General Unloading of Munition Equipment lssues. New York, April 10.—Measures al- ready adopted by the federal govern- ment to prevent inflatizn of values were again an independent factor in today’s stock market, precipitating further liquidation and short selling of the better known war shares. An increasing realization that war co tracts will vield but moderate profits caused a general unloading of muni- tion and equipment issues. Rails were the chief element of strength, some high grade stocks scor- ing materfal galns in the intermedi- ate session. but these were largely.or wholly forfeited in the more urgent offerines of the last hour. Dela- wire and Hudson was weak = at -.all times, taking an extreme recession of 8 1-4 points to 119 1-2 in anticipa- tion of the company's poor annual statement. Tnited States Steel manifested more resistance than most other indns- trinls, declining only 1 1-2 to 108 5-8. while' Pethlehem Steel new stock fell 5 1-2 to 122, with 2 to 4 points for Crucible and Sloss-Sheffield Steels, Virginia Tron and Gulf States Steel. Petroleums. metals, sugars, motors ang leathers fell off one to three points. with 4 3-4 for Baldwin T.ocomitive and 8 1-2 for Sears Roebuck. Utilities wera inactive except for the gas is- sues, Ohjo Gas losing 3 points. Shinpings were rregu'ar at the out- set, but strengthened in the la‘ter deal- ings. Gains in rafls were limited to the leaders, some of the secondary or inactive issues losine 1 to 2 points. Total sales amonnted to 760,000 shares. An advance in sterling exchanee with cables quoted at the highest price in almost a vear, was.the outstanding featur~ of the foreign exchange mar- ket. ‘Francs, rubles and lires were firm. The new high record in unfilled or- Aers reported by the United States Steel Corporation for March occasion- ed no surprise and_ failed to ‘stimulate anv demand for industrial securities. Fonds were again irregular. the in- ternational or war group showing gen- eral strength, while domestic issues, rails as. well as industrials, made vn- riable concessions.

THE FRISBIE-McCORMICK CO., Inc. 52 SHETUCKET STREET ing how the sixteen major league ciubs are faring in their first skirm- ishes of the 1917 season. According to statements by Presi- dents Tener and Johnson of the National and American leagues res- pectively, the two major leagues estzblished new attendance records last season. Baseball interest runs just as high this spring as it did last and there is far more interest than marked the springs of 1914 an 1915 ihe Federal league years, hence this should be a banner year. In the opinion of many experts the awakened interest in baseball is di- rectly due to the fact that the old championship mcahines of Connie Mack and John McGraw are now only memories and that in the last three seasons three different dark horses won the National league pennant. The Athletics of several years back composed the greatest team baseball has yet known, but they did mors to in Ameri- put a damper on interest can league ball than anything which ever hit the Johnsonian circuit. While Mack killed Amercan league ball in Philadeiphia by breaking up his great team, he revivified interest in the American league. When it was only a uestion as to whether the Athletics would win_the pennant by ten or fifteen games there could be little interest in New York, Cleveland or St. Louis. When one knows before a ball is pitched that the best thing you can hope for is second place he cannot arouse him- celf to the zenith of excitement. This spring six clubs in the Ameri- can league feel they have a chance for the pennant—New York, Chicago, Boston, Detroit, St. Louis, and Cleve- land, while Grifith of Washington believes he has an outside chance and Mack of the Athletics says this is the year he will come back. The fans in New York never had the corfidence in a local American league club that they have this spring. Chi- cago writers are telling their readers it will be a_miracle if the White Sox do mot come through this year. Detrgit, after being thwarted twice by £ few games, is now convinced that some of Jenning’s young pitchers have sufficient experience to bridge over the few games which cost the club the pennant in ‘1915 and 1916. In St. Louis the fans believe the Browns did not show true form until Jones’ ‘men made the great midsum- mer dash, and feel the club will start in this epring where it left off last fall. Cleveland, like New York, be- lieves only injuries beat the clud out of the American league pennant last year, while Boston still has implieit confidnce in its twice world's cham- pion Red Sox. I+ is most natural therefore, that with so many _entries _entertaining championship = hopes the interest should run high. These clubs should rur peck and neck right to the finish as they aid last season.- In the National league the fans have been told so often that the ennant won by Giants will have the t they now beginuing to it—outside of Manhattan and g onx. The interest in th a- tional league must of necessity hi on the Giants. Though Brookiyn is the league champion, every baseball man knows that last fall the Giants stood head and shoulders above any tearn in the National leagne During midwinter Stallings, Moran and Robinson were gloomy in discus- ng the National league race. With thelr teams on the fleld they have taken on fresh hopes. After what Stallings accomplished in Eoston in 1914 he s not likely to concede any team the pennant. With all his play- ers signed except Mowrey, and F. brique a bright prospect, plugging his s life has taken on a for Robby of Brooklyn. Moran of Philadaiphia get his first glimpse of Alexander than he forgot all about how thos four straight defeats at the hands of the Giants on the Polo Grounds last fal’ beat hi mout of the 191§ pennant Even in Chicago they have taken new hope since the appointment of Fred Mitchell as manager, while Cin- cinnati expects Mathewson to worlk gome sort of a miracle there. As St. Louls fans have purchased the Car- dinals they n; ally will be greatly interested in . their investment. The Pittsburgh lineup is unlikely to bring much glee to Pirate fans. Three teams given little considera- tion in the spring dope won the Na tional league pennant in 1914, 191 and 1916. Where the pennant changes 60 often it freshens interest, especlally after the Cubs and Giants hole at short, brighter hue No sooner did had so long bossed the league. For that reason fans in other cities are expecting another miracle and are overlooking the great strength of Mc- Graw’s team. Carmania Sighted No Submarines.
