Wilson Long: Way From Recovery Washington, Oct. 11.?Hope that Resident Wilson soon might regain ds normal health and resume fully he duties of his office was swept way today by his physicians who nnounced that it would be imposible for him to leave his bed for an xtended period. The announcement said that there ad been no interruption of the presient's slow improvement, but he still ad a long road to travel before he eached complete recovery. The constitution provides that in ase of the president's disability the ice president shall act as chief excutive, but there is no precedent 3r such a transfer of authority and fficial opinion is divided as to how : might be brought about should the ecessitv arise. The physician's announcement was ot taken to mean that Mr. Wilson ill be prohibited from sitting up in ed and it was considered entirely ossible that he might be permitted o sign a few important bills and rders each day as his progress coninues. That will be a matter, howver, which those attending him must ecide as time goes by. At. 9:45 last night the following ulletin was issued by Dr. Grayson: The President had a comfortable ay."

Cincinnati Batsmen Punish Three Sox Hurlers. r\~L n TV, ~ | Ul'L, J7. l uc n ui IU o uaoQball championship pennant for 1919 will fly from Redland field, Cincinnati, next season. Pat Moran's athletes invaded hostile territory today and annexed the eighth and deciding game against the Chicago White Sox by a' score of 10 to 5. As expert baseball it was as funny as a> sack race. Nearly everything possible happened, including a comic four run rally by the athletes in the pale hosiery. Tt never would have happened just as it did if the sun had not entered the lists and blinded the visiting fielders. Tt was all the funnier for the reason that the Sox were nine runs behind at the time.
