Sports Editor Secessionist Movement Breaking in Germany By I.N.S. The secessionist movement in Germany appeared today to be breaking down.

The crisis between Berlin and Bavaria, which had been temporarily allayed, was renewed by an attack of the federal state government upon the Bavarian premier. German strike troubles grow. The Saxon coal fields are tied up; 30,000 men are out in Upper Silesia and work is almost at a standstill in the Ruhr mines and industries.

WALSH I. N. S. Sports Editor BALTIMORE STADIUM, Oct. 27. Princeton and the Navy battled to an absolute deadlock here this afternoon, each team scoring a field goal. The overhead game proved a deciding factor in the result, forward passes by Snively of Princeton, and barchet of Navy, leading up to the score. STADIUM, BALTIMORE, Oct. 27. Princeton and the Navy, friendly enemies of the cleated shoe by instinct, environment and preference, clashed in the local stadium this perfect afternoon before a colorful crowd of 45,000. First period, Caulkins caught the opening kickoff on the 15-yard line and was downed on the 30-yard line. Ensued then a prolonged duel of punts between Van Gerbig and McKee, the Tiger having an edge the better of the exchanges. Starring, however, from its own 26-yard line, the Navy gained a first down off tackle plunges by Barchet and McKee, then another by Beattie on a recovered fumble. A forward pass Beatty to Calkins made 10 yards and another first down on the 28-yard line. Smith then was sent back to the 36-yard line for a try at a field goal, but missed. McKee punted to Caulkins on Princeton's 44 yard line. McKee fumbled Van Gerbig's punt on his own 25-yard line and recovered the ball almost on the goal line. The play was recalled, however, and the navy penalized 15 yards. The Tigers lost the ball on downs, however, Beatty's dash being grounded on the fourth down. An off-side penalty presented the Navy with a first down on its own 40 yard line as the period ended. Score: Princeton 0; Navy 0. Second period: McKee and Cullen collaborated on a pretty forward pass. Cullen clutching the oval for a gain of 20 yards. The same combination obliged again on the following play and then Navy had a first down on the 24-yard line. McKee plunged for 8 yards. Devens hit the center of the line for a scant first down but Barchet was dropped pronto by Smith as he attempted to go around left end. Devens again went to the middle of the line for seven yards in two plunges whereupon Ballinger replace SOON END DEADLOCK OVER REPARATIONS WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—For the first time since France entered the Ruhr, there appeared genuine confidence among American government officials today that reparations deadlock is due to end soon. France's conditional acceptance of the plan put forward by Secretary of State Hughes is not satisfactory to officials of this government. They would have preferred that Premier Policare accept the Hughes plan outright. Nevertheleaks, they feel that the half loaf is better than none at all. A long path lies ahead of the advisory commission of experts that is to be appointed to examine into Germany's ability to pay. It is not doubted that the commission will be beset by Franco-German politics at every turn. "The important thing to remember is that a start has been made," said an administration spokesman today. "The difficulties, or course, are enormous, but it is not believed they are insurmountable." Secretary Hughes and David Lloyd George had a long conference here last night. The size of the commission and the identity of the American members were subjects of widespread speculation today. The American experts will be suggested by the state department, subject to the approval of the commission. FRENCH NOTE ASKS U.S. COOPERATION BY LUTHER A. HUBTON I.N.S.

Devens hit the center of the line for a scant first down but Barchet was dropped pronto by Smith as he attempted to go around left end. Devens again went to the middle of the line for seven yards in two plunges whereupon Ballinger replaced McKee at quarterback for the Navy. Devens however, was repulsed on two cracks at the left side of the Tiger line and the ball changed hands on the four-yard line. Ballinger introduced his favorite pastime by fumbling VanGerbig's punt and the ball was recovered by Hills of Princeton, on the 35-yard line. Upon which VanGerbig shot a beautiful punt over Ballinger's head, the ball rolling out of bounds on the 15 yard line after traveling 60 yards. An exchange of punts ended with VanGerbig kicking over the goal line, giving Navy the ball on the 20-yard line. At this point, Emery was substituted for Howard at left tackle and the latter moved over to the opposite side of the line, relieving Booth. After two inconsequential gains, Cullen shot off right tackle for 8 yards and first down on the 40-yard line. Navy was penalized five yards for off side, but Cullen dashed around Princeton's left end for 13 yards. The Tigers stiffened and came into possession of the ball on Navy's 40 yard line. Srively, who replaced Buckner, tossed a short pass to Beatty, who dashed 26 yards to Navy's 14 yard line.

SECESSION DRIVE HOPELESSLY SPLIT B Y E B. PERSON I.N.S. STAFF CORRESPONDENT (Copyright by I. N. S. ) BONN, Germany, Oct. 27 — The Rhineland secessionist movement is hopelessly split, it was admitted today by Joseph Smeets, one of the chief leaders. He violently denounced the other leaders including Hans Doten and Joseph Mathes. He denied there was unity in the separatist movement, claiming on the contrary, it was hopelessly split. Ploneers in the movement were completely surprised at the Aachen coup last Sunday. "We had nothing to do with it. If this thing continues we will go over to the German reich." Smeets said the whole Rhineland separatist movement was doomed to failure. He continued: "The whole undertaking was imature. It was crazy to start it in the face of the present food and money shortage. You cannot proclaim a republic when you cannot feed the people and pay wages." An Orange Grove yesterday.

PUMP OUT CISTERN NEAR SCHICK HOME SAN DIEGO, Oct. 27—Pumping out of the cistern back of the alleged "love nest" at El Cajon where E. Drew Clark and Mrs. Sarah Margaret Schick, wife of the missing broker, George E. Schick, were living when they were arrested a week ago, was started today by detectives and county authorities. The cistern was to be emptied and the debris at the bottom examined yesterday but the work was postponed until today when a contractor appeared and declared that when he was laying the concrete floor of a garage back of the cottage, he noticed a soft spot in the ground.

NEW YORK, Oct. 27—In the modest little house on East 20th-st., where Theodore Roosevelt was born 65 years ago, a message of praise of the former president from President Calvin Coolidge was received today. "Fourteen years ago," he wrote, "standing also at a birthplace which has also become a national shrine. Theodore Roosevelt said of Washington and Lincoln: 'There have been other men as great and other men as good, but in all the history of mankind, there are no other two great men as good as those, no other two good men as great. Among the great who also were good, among the good who were also great, we may now inscribe a third name, forever memorable. "Roosevelt, like Lincoln, was in a true sense, a preserver of our national unity. Lincoln saved us from sectional cleavage. Roosevelt saved us from class cleavage. So swiftly at times does the true word, courageously spoken, bear fruit, that today we have almost forgotten that there was a time when the regulations of corporations seemed to many minds unnecessarily radical. "He spoke stern words where neceded, without fear and without favor." "We are a united nation. We will remain a united nation. It was Roosevelt who taught us that unjustified discontent finds no lodgment in nations where the discontent which is justified secures a prompt remedy. "We must turn reverently today to the birthplace of Roosevelt, given back to the world by the women and children of the nation. All artificial distinctions have fallen from him; he belongs to all Americans. Reaching beyond our shores he is the possession of all men, whatever their race, whatever their color, whatever their creed, who are willing to live by his principles and follow his example."
