Place by Losing Six in a Row.
Atlanta,. May 9. By losing six con
secutive games, Nashville dropped out
of the lead in the Southern Association
during the week ending yesterday, be-f
ing replaced by New Orleans, which
won four of its six starts. Nashville's

that' of : the preceding' week,, when it
won seven straight victories.
Chattanooga and Birmingham were
; the week's most consistent winners,
the former t being undefeated in- six
games and the latter droppuing but
one of its six contests These teams
are tied ' for third place.
Memphis won three but of five, and
is fifth. Atlanta and Mobile won but
two of their six contests and follow
Memphis in the order named. Little
Rock, which continues in , last place,
was able to return but a single victory
in five attempts. : i
The first division teams ' are well
bunched now, ' New Orleans leading
Nashville by only half - of one game,

of Birmingham and Chattanooga. ; !

WHATACTION AMERICA
WILL TAKE AS YET HAS

- (Continued From Page One)
lem before him. It not only concerns
th attack on the Lusitania with near
ly 200 Americans on board, but a se
ries of incidents indicating a period
of strained relations with Germany for
many weeks. . -
The President has watched without
open comment, but it is known with
disapproval, the complaints of the Ger
man officials with regard to questions
of neutrality and the efforts to array
American sentiment against, the Wash
ington administration as a means of
urging an embargo on munitions of
war against the Allies. At fistGer
many admitted there was no violation
of international law in the sale by pri
vate individuals of munitions of war.
When the German ambassador in a
memorandum practically accused' the
United States government of not being
neutral in the question of permitting
shipments of munitions of war the
President was amazed. The sinking of
the American steamer Frye, the at
tack on the Falaba, causing the death'
of an American citizen, Leon C. Thresh
er, the wrecking without warning of
the American; tank ship Gulf Light, the
dropping of bombs on the " American
steamer Cushing and finally the tor
pedoing of the giant liner Lusitania
constitute a series of incidents which
the President is trying to interpret. He
wants to be certain whether they range
themselves in-order toward a grave cli
max of: a carefully planned policy of
hostility to the United -States, or
whether the sequence is casual and the
German government desires to continue
friendly relations with the Washington
government.
.Most Series Situation.
In every quaf ter the opinion pre-v
vailed that-the President was .con
fronted with not only the most serious
problem of his own career but of the
most trying and awkward situations in
the history of the United States.
Neutral governments are anxious to
know what the course of the United
States will :be. They have frequently
intimated to the American government
their willingness to join in any move
ment which might effectively protect
the rights of neutrals. : They , have
promised their moral support and some
observers think a contingency may
arise as the international situation de
velops which may -take necessary con
versation with the neutral countries on
a common policy to safeguard the
rights of neutrals." ' " ''
OYSTER SEASON CLOSED.
Has. Not Been a Very Good One For
the Gatherers of Bivalves.
(Special Star Correspondence.)
Newbern, N. C, May 8. The -oyster
season in this section . is. closed and
but very few of the bivalves are being
taken out of local waters and the de
man dfor them is mainly being -supplied
from points further up the
coast. The past season was not a very
good, one for the oyster men. The sup
Ply of the bivalves was not so verv
large and the quality of-them was not
all that could have been . desired.
though later in the season this began
to improve and along toward the last
some very fine oysters were "taken
from the waters of this section. But
very few. fiish are being caught in
this section just at present.
Telegraphers are becoming more and
more needed in the British army and
correspondingly hard . to get. The war
office demanded twenty expert men a
few days ago. The employers "of these
men refused to give them Up, saying
that they had ..let so many of their em
ployees go as almost to paralyze their
business. "Victory first," was the reply
of the war office,-and' Kitchener- sent

Washington, May 9. An attempt to
assassinate Rogue Gonzales Garza, the
convention provisional president of
Mexico, was made early today by troops

REAL FIGHT IU REGIUS
Eastern and Western Teams
Test Their Strength.
Next Portnight Wfll Reveal Insight into
True Condition of Teams of Both
American and National Lea
guesHow. They Played.
New York, May 9. Major league
baseball this week enters a new phase
for the season. Opening battles of East
against East and West against West,
are over, and intersectional contests
are beginning. The real test of mettle
is due, and the next fortnight is likely
to give a reasonably accurate idea of
the realative strength of the sections
of each league, as well as to indicate
the chances of the individual. teams for
pennant honors.
In the National League last week
Chicago supplied the chief drive, re
taining a fairly firm hold on second
place and working to within one game
of the Philadelphias, who though siill
leading, have slumped badly. The
Cubs are just now in the best position
to make life on the diamond a thing of
anxiety for Pat Moran's men. Roger
Bresnahan's clan has been showing
notable sticking power and steadiness
characteristic very like those of Cub
teams of old. j
The Boston Braves are making j so
cuch better progress than last year1 at
this stage, 'that they are compelling
early season attention. Cincinnati is
sticking in the first division, despite re
verses. The second division teams are
closely .bunched. Pittsburg and New
York did the best work of the week.
In the American League Detroit re
gained the leadership, but the New
Yorks, whom Jennings' men displaced,
are playing excellent ball and are still
close behind the Tigers. The Chicago
White Sox let down somewhat, barely
holding their own. Boston still is a?
the half way mark in games won and
lost, the team going, somewhat faster
than- previously. Joe Wood showed a
renewal of effectiveness -Saturday, a de
velopment decidedly encouraging .to
the Carrigan team. The Washington s
are having a hard time of it, losing
four out of five games last week and
not being able to win today against
Detroit, even with Walter Johnson in
the box. Cleveland has been doing bet
ter than expected, while the Athletics
have shown signs of picking up. St.
Louis remains at a decided discount.
The week's record in the American
and National leagues' of games played,
won and lost, with runs, hits, errors
and men left on bases:
The Federal League race continues
close, with frequent changes in the
leadership. Last week Pittsburgh
forged, ahead, working into the lead
while the others were killing off each
others chances. Chicago dropped to
fourth place, Newark remaining sec
ond and Brooklyn third.
The pitching feature of the Federal
circuit just now is the work of Harry
Moran, of Newark, whqse record
stands at gve straight games. Frank
Allen, of Pittsburgh, is a good second
for twirling honors, while Lee Magee,
of the Brooklyns, holds the batting
record.
A notable incident of the week was
the return of Benny Kauff, chief fig
ure in the complications of the week
hefore, to active duty with the Brook
lyns. NATIONAL LEAGUE.

choir.
Following the service the interment
was at Maplewood cemetery, and in the
presence of several thousand people,
many of whom had been waiting for
several hours. -
The active' pallbearers were: Dr.

found earnestly at work for the ad

Able and equipped, his energy was al
