Polo Grounds, New York, Oct. 11. The New York
Giants batted their way back to an even basis with the
White Sox here this afternoon in their struggle for the
world's baseball championship. Ferdie Schupp duplicated
the performance of Rube Benton yesterday by holding
wre " i umcss. jLne jriaiiis puunueu rauer ana
Danf orth for five runs.
Benny Kauff shared with Schupp the individual honors.
Twice he pounded out a home run. Once with Charley
Herzog on the paths before him.
His first circuit clout was over Felsch's head in deep
center field in the fourth inning and the second was into
the right field grandstand in the eighth.
Four hits were bunched in the fifth inning for another
Giant run and the seventh saw the other run cross the
plate on a hit, a wild pitch and an infield out.
The Giants deliberately stole the White Sox heaviest
thunder in the fifth inning, when, by an attack of batting,
they accumulated two hits that followed a line single and
which resulted directly in the second run. Aside from its
run getting value, this attack had the effect of completely
up setting the Chicago infield, so the White Sox played
with noticeably less dash.
Eddie Collins was responsible for a play that, had it
not taken place, might have held the White Sox in the
game. In the iourth he led off with a double, but after
Schupp had failed in several attempts to pick him off,' he
was finally nailed flat-footed and put out at third. It was
a sharp, fast play by Schupp and Herzog, and Collins was
completely outguessed.
Schupp came back in remarkable fashion after having
been driven from the box in Chicago on Sunday. He
struck put seven and allowed seven hits.
Faber, for Chicago, was going strong in the early in
nings, but -weakened. Danf orth took up the burden in the
eighth inning.
The White Sox and Giants leave tonight for Chicago,
where they will play the fifth game of the series at Com
isky park Saturday. They return here Monday for the
sixth game.
Tolo Grounds, ew York, Oct. 11.
New York fans turned out slowly to
sup'ply the enthusiasm that would help
the Giants as thev battled hero this
eflernoon to make it a fifty-fifty propi
ox:. ion with the Wnite Sox.
Grandstands and bleachers both had
inpny bare spots at 1:30 o'clock, al
though the day was more cheerful than

in the park.

President Wilson Bitterly As
sailed During Recent
Reichstag Debate
Amsterdam, Oct. 11. A' formidable
and open movement m the relchstag to
oust Chancellor Michaelis and Vice
Chancellor Helfferich and reinstate
Prince Von Buelow as chancellor, was
reported in Berlin dispatches today
quoting the Vossischo Zeitung. The Gor
man newspaper asserted that a '(num
ber of reichstag members are openly
working to this end. "
Michaelis and Helfferich are partic
ularly under fire for their institution
of propaganda in the army for tho von
Tirpitz pan-Gorman political party, "the
fatherland party." The centrists radical
wing is likewise opposing them for re
fusal specifically and formally to dis
cuss the government's attitude on the
majority peace formula.
The Berlin dispatch showing opposi
tion to these two leaders whoso post re
quires them to act as the buffer between
the German rarnamcnt ana tne govern
ment itself, came on the heels of
speeches by Michaelis and Foreign Sec
retary Kuchlemann, declaring that
peace could never be forced from Ger
many while her enemies sought to sep
arate her poople from the kaiser or
whilo they demanded that German sur
render any of her territory.
Kuehlmann firmly doclared that Ger
many would never consider abandon
ment of Alsace-Lorraine.
"As long as our enemies insist on
their demand for parts of Germany,
Germany will stand with folded arms,"
declared Michaelis, in discussing the
same general principle.
"Our peace is still to come," he as
serted.
Berlin dispatches declared that Mich
aelis' speech was received with littlo
applause. The reichstag was nearly emp
ty. -
Bitter Against Wilson.
Amsterdam, Oct. 11. Bitter invective
against President Wilson followed yes
terday's reichstag debate, according to
delayed dispatches from Berlin, re
ceived here today.
Deputy llaussman, argued tnat uer-
many was not guilty of starting the war
and that the American president was
mainly guilty for its prolongation.
"The interview with Lloyd Georgo a
year ago, in which he said the war
would continue to a knockout, was tho
turning point of the war," Haussman
declared. "Adoption by Berlin of the
French war aims for Alsace-Lorraine
means war to the death."
Deputy Stressemann, leader of the
German liberals, approved Foreign Sec
retary Kuehlmann 's speech and Count
von West jp, leader of the" conservatives
also expressed his support of the secre
tary's statement.
Westiap vituperatively assailed Pres
ident Wilson and characterized the plan
for Belgian independence as an "Utop
ian dream."
"Onlv a B'it:sh or a German Belgium
is possible after the war," he asserted.
The minority socialists demanded that
the roichstag appoint a committee to
investigate the charges lodged by Ad
miral von Capello against Deputies
Haase, Dittmann and Vogther. Ihe ma
jority socialist wing demanded that the
marine minister furnish full proofs,
meantime refusing to define their own
attitude on the charges.

American Officials Think Inci

President's View
(By Ed L. Keen)
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
London, Oct. 11. It would be a big
mistuke for America hastily to eoncludn
that the German mutiny means the be
ginning of the end. Intelligent stud
ents of German affairs, with excep
tional "inside information," warned
today against America attaching undue
significance to the revolt of a few sail
ors, which rebellion was immediately re
pressed with iron hand discipline and
which was doubtless caused by bad or
insufficient food, oppressive discipline,
monotonous canal life, etc.
As anti sociah.it propaganda, Admiral
von C'appelle and Chancellor Michaelia
are shrewdly utilizing the incident t
bolster up tho government and discredit
the minority socialists. Incidentally
they seek to create the impress on
abroad that the spirit of the revolution
is much more widespread than tho facta
warrant hoping thereby to lure the al
lies ana especially America into renua.
ation of their military efforts.
Some British' editors today were ex
tremely skeptical of the whole story.
"We must not let ourselves build any
hopes on such a tale, told for a transpar
ent purpose," warned the Chronicle.
"It would be a still greater mistake if
we relax the frmness and aoldarty of
our natonal attitude under the lmpre
aion thus to induco thev Germans to
relax their 's. Doing so would be ig
noring all lessons experience has taught
us in German psychology.
"Prussianism will never be seriously
menaced from within until the certainty
cf its destruction is wrought from with
out." "The allies must not rely on any
movement of this kind to do for them
work which must be done by gun and
bomb," declared the Daily Mail.

London, Oct. 11. Having faced what
oatni.iiaiuM tmlav as a widespread
revolt in the navy and with muttering
of discontent in the army, the German
military machne was expected by or-
rvers here to seeK erauicanuu ui

The first outbreak of tho uprising

movement wss widespread aud organis

greatest difficulty. At least four battle

of the revolt was inadequate and poor
