Baseball fans from every section of the country were in Cincinnati today for the opening of the series, but Ohio fans were in the majority. Nearly every Ohio city and village was represented in the crowd of 33,000 people who crowded Reldand field. Cleveland, with several hundred rooters, had the largest delegation. Gov. Cox headed the Columbus rooters and John O'Dwyer, the Toledo rooters. Among other public officials who arrived this morning were: Senator Warren G. Harding, of Ohio, and former Governor A. B. White, of West Virginia. Manager Tris Speaker of the Cleveland Indians, who came within a few games of opposing the Reds in the world series, headed the Cleveland delegation, which numbered approximately 500. Speaker picked the White Sox as winners of the series. President Barney Dreyfus of the Pittsburg club headed the two trainloads of Pittsburg rooters who arrived this morning. He declared it was his belief that the Cincinnati Reds would win the championship. The special train carrying Chicago fans to the opening game were delayed about two hours because of a freight train derailment. As a result it was necessary to detour the special trains, which were due to arrive shortly before 2 o'clock, the time set for the game. George Wright and Cal McVay, veteran players of the Champion Red Stockings of 54 years ago, spurned all offers to ride to the ball park.

REID HOSPITAL APPEALS

OF EVERY CITIZEN, By MRS. GURNEY HILL. 1 Another year has rolled around, and again the Ladies' Aid society is calling attention to the splendid work our hospital Is doing, and to the claim that It has on the sympathy and support of every citizen. We all realize the hospital has become an absolute necessity in the life of the community, and hundreds of people can testify to its efficiency in their own individual cases, while scores of families are grateful for the relief from anxiety which has been afforded them. There are many complex problems confronting our civilian hospitals today and we must' assume their burdens. Our own hospital is facing a hard time due, not only to the high cost of food supplies but also to the scarcity and almost prohibitive prices of commodities absolutely necessary to maintain our standard. Work Must Continue. The Ladies' Aid society has been un tiring in working for the upkeep of the hospital, so as to add to its working eciency, and has not allowed any department to be hampered by inadequate equipment, having accomplished this, many times by hard work and personal sacrifice. The work must continue and on a much larger scale than heretofore attempted. To make it possible for them to secure the necessary materials, with which to work, the ladies call the at BAD MANAGEMENT WRECKED TROLLEY LINES SAYS LAUCK (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Oct 1 Past financial mismanagement, not increased wages to employes, was declared to be the primary cause of the desperate financial straits of the trolley lines of the country, in an opening statement for labor presented today to the federal electric railway commission. It was read by W. Jett Lauck, who said labor representatives expected to show that labor efficiency had steadily increased, while wage advances had not kept pace with the rise of other i3?ir;?! tioat'TrktMl.t u at : ; ciwrte&ar efficiency " has beeh4&V6rbedLc by i fictitious capitalization. Calling attention to' a presidential! proclamation during the war, an!8i the terms of the peace ; treaty as having "accepted as fundamental rights of labor the principle of an eight hour day, a living wage, and union recognition," Lauck said labor would contend that the commission should accept these principals as an "essential condition to any recommendations which it may make for rehabilitation of the street railway industry. Spalato Again Quiet; Fiume Gathers Help (By Associated Press) FIUME, Tuesday, Sept. 30 Normal conditions have been restored at Spalato, where street fighting has occurred between Italians and Croatians. Feeling between the two races is, however, reported quite bitter. Captain Gabriele D'Annunzio's army in this city numbers 15,000 officers and men, according to information received from official sources. There are constant additions to this force from deserters who have left their units along the armistice line. Sympathy Spreading ROME, Oct 1 Sympathy with Cap tain Gabriele D'Annunzio is spreading among the regular Italian troops. Money and supplies continue to flow into Fiume. Censorship Off in Paris and Vienna .PARIS, Tuesday, Sept. 30. All re strictions of the censorship applying to internal and international tele graphic communications which have been operative in France since August 1914, have been abolished. Commencing tomorrow, telegrams in all languages and in cipher may be filed. VIENNA FOLLOWS SUIT. VIENNA, Tuesday, Sept. 30. Censorship over mails and telegraph messages was abolished by an official order Issued today. after a conference with Manager Gleason, it was decided that a ball batted into the left field blichers would be considered a home run. Whether there will be any limitation on a hit into the crowd standing in right field will be decided just before the game begins, he said. The, center field is an open space, so no rule is needed fbr it. The decision to allow a home run on balls hit into the left field temporary stands shows that Moran Is not fearful that the White Sox have any longer drivers than , he has on the Reds; In other words, that Groh, Roush and Duncan are aS liable to hoist the ball Into those stands as Jackson or Felsch, the principal distance hitters of the Chicago team. - - The Reds began batting and fielding practice at 12:30 p. m.,;Ring serving the offerlng&j to the batters. A battery of photographers and mvirg picture operators, took up positions, on the right to the right of the plate and caught the Red batters in action. The field in front of left and. right field

cottonl-bleachers was reserved ; for standing

room for several thousand people.' The White Sox came on the lield at' 12:44 and began tossing the ball to each other in front 6f -their bench.

FOR SUPPORT

SATURDAY, TAG DAY tention of every citizen in Richmond, as well as the surrounding counties, to remember Tag Day, Saturday, October 4 and give more liberally than ever before in order that this increased responsibility may be met. As the hospital is faithfully putting forth every effort to meet all the present extraordinary conditions, the 1? dies of the society feel Justified in J anticipating an unusually generous response to their appeal for funds to carry on this important work. WAYNE VOTE IS AGAINST LEAGUE; POLL IS CLOSED Three Hundred and Nine for Covenant, 581 Against Senators to Receive Results Wayne county, swung by the sentiment of the two largest classes of men in her borders, farmers and shop men, has registered a decisive vote against the league of nations, either In its present form or with reservations. The final vote was registered in the Palladium poll Tuesday night. Three hundred and nine men are for the league without reservations, or without them if they cannot be made, and 581 are against it unqualifiedly, for it with reservations, but against it if these cannot be made. Only 244 men want the league in its! present form, against 362 who are against it under any conditions. A feature is that the men who are generally regarded as having the most education, register a slight majority for the league, those supposedly of least education throwing the balance against it. Results of the poll were sent im mediately to Senators New and Watson, for their use in the consideration of the treaty and league in the senate. Both have expressed much interest in the poll, as has also Congressman Believe In ftr1derit . . W tx i ne teature or tne last aayw&s tne rush to express their confidence Jn President Wilson,- by supporters of the league. A few expressions of this confidence are: "Wilson Is right and most wis people think he Is next to Jesus Christ. "I think there Is an effort on the part of certain Republican senators to make a political issue of the league. England does not have six votes to our one, which was explained by President Wilson." A farmer. "President Wilson, is perfectly right. "I think this will be the last of the Republican party, after the league of nations is ratified, as it will be. "If all those bonehead senators who are against the league, were sent to Germany, this country would be better cff. "The president is the greatest man that ever sat in the white house, and if he says the league is right, I am for it. "Two-thirds of the men in our shop are for the league of nations. "Whatever Jim Watson is for, I'm against. "I think we need more action and less politics. Accept it now and amend it later." Against the League.

With President Wilson's condition showing steady improvement those attending him in his illness were concerned today in preventing any exertion which might cause a relapse. Although Dr. Grayson had reported the President as "improving" in two bulletins yesterday he prescribed rest again today for the patient and white house officials expected the prescription to stand for some days to come. Although it was thought likely that the President would be permitted to give a small portion ot each day to preslng official business, the most of the time is to be spent with his family at the White House or motoring.

Schroeder. chief test pilot at the McCook Flying field, Dayton, holder of the world's two-man altitude record, and winner of the New York-Toronto air race. On his latest altitude flight at the Dayton field, in which he reached a height of approximately 29,000 feet he was able to see Cincinnati from a point over Richmond, nearly 100 miles away. "I was able to make out the outline of a large building, which I later learned was the Union Central 'scraper,' says the peace-time ace. Ed Rodefeid, pilot of the Chenoweth plane, 6aid Wednesday that Major Schroeder's feat was perfectly possible and probable. When you get up that height on a clear day, it would be very easy to see a large white building or object, such as the Union Central building," said Rodefeid. Will Try for Record.

GARY DENIES BAD WORKING CONDITIONS IN INDUSTRY

Steel King Says no Basic Industry of World Plays More or Treats Men Better Denies Charges. TESTIMONY IS TAKEN (By Associated Press) With the situation In the steel districts virtually unchanged, and both capital and labor making conflicting claims of progress. Interest in the tenth day of the Bteel strike today centered in Washington, where Elbert H. Garj-, chairman of the board of the United States Steel corporation, appeared before the senate labor committee when it resumed Its investigation of the strike. Mr. Gary began his testimony by denying the charges of labor leaders that the steel corporation had mistreated and underpaid its men. "There is no basic industry in this country, nor In the world, in my opinion," he said, "which has paid larger wages than the United States Steel corporation, and perhaps not as large, nor has treated their employes In greater respect and consideration, if as great" "If unions control industries in tho United States it means decay and the dropping of production," Gary declared. "It means this country cannot keep up in the race with the world." said Mr Gay. 'I mefjis he conditions I . war Eiland la in today." Reiterating that the opep shop wis the blgv lseue in- the lreseo strike. Judge Gary declared that it was the opinion of the world that open shops mean more production, better methods and more prosperity, and that closed shops mean lower production and less prosperity. While Judge Gary was testifying, diametrically, opposed claims continued to pour In from the steel districts. An official statement of the Bethlehem Steel company asserted that 83 per cent of Its men were working, while a statement of the labor leaders set forth that between 75 and 80 per cent of the men were out. No change was reported from the Pittsburgh and Chi cago districts. - - i The only disturbance reported today was at the plant of the Sharon Steel Rope company, at Sharon, Pa., where pickets are alleged to have turned back workmen attempting to enter the plant. One arrest was made. Further testimony for the strikers will be given Thursday by William Z. Foster, secretary of the strike committee, and he wilj be followed by Michael G. Tighe, president of the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin workers'. ' Other witnesses are to be heard in the Pittsburgh district by the committee who plan to carry their Investigation Into the heart of the steel strike sone. The Investigation will bo held either the last of this week or early next week, dependent upon peace treaty developments in the senate. , ASK COMMITTEE BETHLEHEM. .
