Coombs,, the only man v.ho could hold
the Red Hox in cheek when the Dodgers

All through the winter it ha been
figured from various angles that the
Dodgers constituted a first division
baseball chili perhaps. The Braves,
l'hillies and Giants have been called
stronger. The effort of a pencil nnd a
small piece of paper was enough to ;
show that, championship qualities did j
not hold forth in the city across the j

TERRIFIC FIGHTING

tsts, ravines and valleys, or slips
through former German trenches.
Tho ability of the French to bom
bard without limit any point, at any
time, is what permits the absolute cer
tainty of an advance- Such a concen
tration of fire as the French pour in
where they want it, completely wipes
ot every defensive device known to
German genius or constructed by Gor-
iaii labor since 19H.
But if the actual fighting battle
front does not reveal the presence of
troops immediately to the rear there
is everywhere visible a titanic con
centration of mon, munitions and ma
terial. The valleys woods and ravines
am filled with cavalry, infantry, hitch
ed batteries, munition trains, automo
biles, trucks, cannon all either ad
vancing or awaiting the word to dash
to the front. There is forward move
ment everywhere.
Haig Smashes Again
London, April 21. Ficld Marshal
Haig smashed another blow at Cambrai
today and advanced more than a mile
toward that atroughold of the Hinden
onrg lin,
Hia capture of Qonnelieu was an
nounced in an official statement tdday.
The British commander in chief re
ported sharp fighting in this drive. He
likewise detailed repulse of a German
attack delivered at Fauquissart and
considerable artillery firing at a num
er ?f places along the front.
With the capture of Gonnelieu,
Haig'g steei iine paralleling the Cam-bri-
- Quentin highway had fcecn
shoved ono mile closer to Cambrai, and
a dividing angle for a blow on that
e,ty formed, reaching from Havrin
veurt and Villers Ploulch to Gonnelieu
"n the north, to Villere Guislain and
f.jehy on the south.
"During the night we captured
Gonnelieu after sharp fighting, taking
a number of prisoners," the report
said'. "An cnemv party attempted to
enter our trenches in the neighborhood
of Fauquissart, but were repulsed. Ar
tillering ws active at a number of
places during the night."
French Make More Gains
Paris, April 21 More ground was
gained by French attacks north or
Kheims today while General Nivelle s
forces beat back German attacks upon
the positions around Mont Haut, which
were wrested from the enemy a fen
days ago.
The French official statement, an
tails of the past 24
hours fighting, declared heavy losses
had been inflicted .upon the Germans
in the Mont Haut repulse-
"Artillery was activo during tne
night north" of the Aisne in the region
v;i T.a vosse and Hautebise,
i. atfttement said. "Cannonading
was particularly violent east of Cra
mine nnd north of Bheims. .
"French forces gained ground in
grenade fighting south of Jiiviucour.
and east of Coucy."
(.Tuvincourt lies five miles due cast
of Craonne and about 15 miles north
west of Kheims. Coucy is five miles
northwest of Kheims.)
"A German attack on Mont Haut
was repulsed with losses to the enemy.
"French detachments raided German
lines west of Maison Do Champagne,
imprisoning forty Germans.

Washington. April 21. Predicting se

that "American labor' stands solidly

draft.
J. Fads How, the millionaire "hobo"
of St. Louis, argued against conscrip

scription "un-American and unneces

Star Pitcher Surprises Fans
by Appearing In Brown's
Uniform Today
By H. C. Hamilton
(United Press-stuff correspondent)
New York, April 21. Dave Daven
port, burly pitcher of the Browns, is
wearing a Brownie uniform today to
the surprise of several hundred thous
and fans, who expected to mourn the
death of one of the game's iron men
when they read that he had dropped k
!gun and received a wound in his huge
'frame above the waist.
I Perfect physical condition probably
!has helped him out considerably, far
he declared a few davs ngo that he
would be ready to help Fielder Jones'
team this year just as much as ever.
That statement probably is stretch
ing it a little, for there are few men
who can 'receive the wound that Dav
enport did and live to tell about it. Ho
can hardly be just asgood as ever.
Davenport is weak and he walks with
a limp, but the news that he was go
ing to take a whirl at, baseball again
this summer was considerably encour
aging to tho Browns.
it is possible Davenport will carry
the marks of his accident all his life.
He can't move his body in the long,

Evening Sun financial review today
faid:
Interest in today's short session of
the stock market was of a most, ner-
jfiinctory character, with little in tho
32' .overnight news developments of strik
ing mariu'twiHi; intlueiice. Prices of the
general list, were heavy from the out
set and narrow save where bear attacks
were directed against a few individual
stocks, a Manifestation of a rather
spotty aspect. Trading in the first half
of the session waa dull to a degree and
appeared to represent adjustment of
professional committments for the
week end. There whs more or less short
selling, but, the movement was not ex
tensive. Bonds were slightly more imi
ninted and prices in general were bet
ter, with increasing firmness in tho
convertible railroad issues.
The standard issues yielded only frac,
tionallv in must cases. Bethlehem Steel

in the steel group price changes wer

level. Softness here and there in the

ters attributed to foreign liquidation.
Berlin Declares

London, April 21. Berlin's official
version of the general strike by wire

"There were no riots or fierce street

which is already settled," the wireless
claimed. 'Tho only unusual incidents

gathered at a few points and were dis-

against the government but against tho
