Crowd Sees Game
Harrisburg baseball fans after a
long wait were given an introduction
to New York league baseball this
afternoon. Cockill's crew was opposed
by Wilkes-Barre and the first contest
at Island Park started at 3.15.
Weather indications this morning
were not favorable for a game, but the
sun came out at noon, brushed away
the clouds and the program announced
yesterday was carried out.
The threatening weather cut down
the size of the parade, many of the
amateurs failing to turn up. The
Commonwealth band, with local offi
cials and players and the Wilkes-
Barre team, made a trip over the city,
reaching Island Park about 2.30, where
there was a band concert and the
usual preliminaries p'rior to starting
the game. The crowd was fair, con
sidering the weather conditions. The
line-up of the two teams was an
nounced as follows:

close themselves, strike with over
whelming might.
This strategy was agreed upon at the
allied conference in Paris, and was
subsequently developed in greater de
tail by General Joffre in his recent
conference with Sir William Robert
son. British chief of staff. To aid In
co-ordinating it with Russian plans is
believed to have been the mission of
Lord Kitchener when he lost his life
in the sinking of the Hampshire while
on his way to Petrograd.
The Germans have been slow In
withdrawing men from the French
front, because they knew of the for
midable massing of troops that has
been going on behind the Anglo-
French lines. In fact, military observ
ers declare that the Verdun assault has
been prolonged in order t"o forestall
any allied offensive. Against the Brit
ish portion of the front alone it is es
timated that the Germans have main
tained in reserve no less than 700,000
men.
Von Bethmann Hollweg
Declares Germany Can Last
But Few Months, Is Report
Paris, June 27. "Our situation is
bad. If everything goes well we can
stay a few more months. If the people
will be satisfied l with small results we
ean last till March, 1917."
Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollweg Is
reported to have made the foregoing
statement at a secret council held In
Berlin last week. It is published in the
Journal, which states It obtained it
from a confidential document drawn
up by two deputies who attended the
council.
The Conservatives demanded the re
sumption of unrestrained submarine
operations. In reply,' the Chancellor
said:
"We have only twenty high sea sub
marines, divided into squadrons of five.
One of these squadrons Is always in
dock for repairs. Our other submarines
are necessary for coast defense."
The Chancellor then said:
"Not a day passes but that I am vis
ited by Austro-Hungarian and Turkish
deputies who threaten a separate peace
unless we cease the submarine war.
They fear that after the war the allies
and the United States will entirely
paralyze their overseas trade."

Two Granges Endorse l
William Penn Highway
That the agriculturists of Pennsyl- i
v&nia are quite as enthusiastic as
their city brothers in the advocacy of j
better highways is evident from the j
fact that two county Pomona Granges ;
have endorsed the William Penn
Highway proposition, whereby the old
Pittsburgh-Philadelphia turnpike is to
be permanentized.
The Cambria County Pomona
Grange and the Huntingdon County
Pomona Grange, which represents a
total of about 50 subordinate grange
bodies, have given tne William Penn
road their approval. That of the
Huntingdon body was without reserve,
but the Cambria County grange asked
that the main road routing be chang
ed so as to bring the highway closer
to the really agricultural section of
that county. The Cambria county
committee which drafted the good \
roads resolution was composed of
