WARNING or GERMANY'S
HOSTILE PLANS.
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—James W
Gerard, United States ambassador to
Germany who returned here yester-
day on his first vacation in nearly
three years, issued a formal statement
late today in which he denied that
, his homecoming had been caused by
i the need of warning the admlnistra-
' tion at Washington of Germany's In-
tention to resume Indiscriminate sub-
marine warfare against neutral aS
well as hostile shipping. The ambas-
sador's statement follows:
"You may say that It Is not true
that I came home at this time to serve
notice on the president of Germany's
intention to repudiate her pledges re-
garding the conduct of submarine
warfare or that Germany was con-
templating the resumption of subma-
rine attacks upon all Kinds of ship-
ping.
"I say to you what I said to a re-
porter for the Berlinger Tageblatt at
Copenhagen before I sailed: 'I should
not think of leaving my post at this
time If I were not convinced that the
relations between my country and
Germany were as friendly as they
could bo and gave every promise of
continuing so Indefinitely."

ST. THOMAS CYCLONE.
Another Gulf Storm Sweeping West
India Islands.
St. Thomas, I). W. I., Oct. 11.—A
cyclone swept over St. Thomas Mon-
day night and yesterday morning with
disastrous results. There are many
homeless persons and It is probable
some form of public relief measures
will be necessary.
The damage thus far reported runs
Into the hundreds of thousands of dol-
lars. So far as it known there is no
lotu of life
in his eagerness to get Myers at the
plate fumbled Cutshaw'H grounder.
Rube Marquard, Manager Robinson's
choice fur a second try against the
Boston batters, staved off the visitors
in the initial Inning, but Gardner took
much of the mystery out of his de-
livery when he hammered out a home
run, his second in two days, with two
011 liases in the succeeding session.
Boston ad'vt another tally in the
fourth when Lewis singled, went to
second on Gardner's sacrifice and
scored on Manager Carrigan's single
Another vi added in the fifth
when Cheney, who replaced Marquard
in the box after Pfcffer had batted
for the former, passed Hooper, who
gto'.e second and scored on Hoblit-
stol's double. The final run of the
game came in the seventh.
Cheney soon afterwards was re-
placed by Nap Hucker, one of the
greatest of southpaws when at the
height if his carcer. The veteran
pitcher's ambition to work in a world
series' game and the fans desire to
held the Bostonlans scoreless to the
end. In the two innings he held com-
mand he fanned three of the six bat-
ters that faced him and allowed but
one hit, Of the four twirlers in tho
game, Leonard's work was tho best.
He allowed but five hits In nine in-
nings, struck out three, gave four
bases on balls and made one wild
pitch. Boston col'ected ten hits off
Brooklyn's three pitchers for a total
of fifteen bases, while Brooklyn se-
cured five hits for eight bases.
Hooper made the only bane steal of
the day and the visitors used but
nine players to the home club's fif-
teen.
Weather conditions were the best
of thj series to date. The official
figures showed that 21,662 spectators
were present and that the receipts
were $72,111.20. Of this sum the
players will reccive $39,333.60; each
club $13,111.20 and the National com-
mission $7,284. The total figures for
the four garnia to date are as follows:
Attendance :20,239; receipts $301,-
717.50; players' share $162,927.45;
pa h club's share, $54,309.17; Na-
tional commission's share $30,171.75.
The players' share of the reecipts
for the first four games will be divided
upon a basis of 60 per cent to the
winners of the series and 40 per cent
to the loser, which will give $97,-
756.45 to be divided among the mem-
bers of the winning club and $65,-
169,98 for the losing club players.

French Surgeon Martyr to Efforts in
Behalf of Wounded.
Paris, Oct. 11.—Br. Menard of the
Cochin hospital, was decorated with
the legion of honor today as a re-
compense for his loss of two fingers,
one from each hand, by exposure
to the X-ray.
Dr. Menard has accomplished ad-
mirable results in the location of pro-
jectiles in the bodies of wounded
soldiers. In the loss of his fingers
he learned that tissue cells exposed
to the action of the X-ray are sub-
jected to a localized disease of nu-
trition and in consequence harden
and rapidly deaden.
Through Dr. Menard's experiments
a surgeon was able a few days ago
to locate and extract In ten minutes
a shrapnel bullet lodged under the
heart of a wounded soldier.

ENGLAND SPURNS COMPROMISE.
No Patched l*p Compromise to be
Entertained. Says Asqiiith.
London, Oct. 11.— "This is no time
for faltering counsel or wavering pur-
pose," said Premier Asq.iith in ad-
dressing the house of commons today.
"This war cannot be allowed to end in
some patched up, precarious and dis-
honoring compromise masquerading
under he name of peace.
"No one desires to prolong for a
single moment longer than Is necessary
the tragic spectacle of bloodshed and
destrucion but we owe it to those who
have given their lives that their su-
preme sacrifices shall not have been
unavailing.
"The ends of the allies are well
known. They have been frequenly
stated They are not selfish; they are
not Vindictive; but they require ade-
quate reparation for the past and ade-
quate security for the future."
The house cheered the premier
loudly as he made these remarks in
concluding his address after moving
a vote of credit for 300,000,000
pounds.
Many people fail to realize that the common habit
of coffee drinking may, sooner or later, handicap
ability and hinder progress.
It is a scientific fact that coffee contains a harm-
ful drug, caffeine, which with many, through reg-

ter, or other annoying ills.
The wise move is to quit coffee and use

Made of wheat and a bit of wholesome molasses,
this famous pure food-drink has a rich, snappy

Postum comes in two forms. The original Postum

form, is made in the cup with boiling water—the
same delicious drink—instantly.
