Smith gave but one base on balls. Before the game the locals cavorted about the diamond like a bunch of school boys. During the game they played like big leaguers. Walsh has the speediest method of throwing the ball to first to catch the runner off the bag of any twirler seen here this year. He caught Jones nap- ping and that's going some.

Walsh has won fourteen and lost three. Powers of New London is third with fifteen won and five lost. The Skis gave him another downward push yesterday.

Tet 1190 WE OFFER FOR SALE LOCAL STOCKS ENGLAND BLAMED FOR | AMERICANS LOATH T0 JAPAN'S ULTIMATUM Germany Regards Action as War Move of Great Britain. Washington, Aug. 19.—Germany's viewpoint of Japan's ultimatum for speedy withdrawal of German in- fluence in China has not yet been of- ficlally expressed, as the German em-« bassy here is without information as to the actual presentation of Japan's demands. But from well posted sources it is gathered that the Ger- man position is likely to be along the following general lines: War Move By England. Japan’s action is regarded as es- sentially a war move on the part of England, as it was proposed and re- quested by England, and was not done on the spontaneous !nitiative of Japan. From the German standpoint this is regarded as part of England’s diplomacy in war times; to cause 1 diversion from the main fleld of ac- tion in Kurope und arouse antago- nism to Germany in other parts of the world at a time when ell Ger- many's energles are concentrated on her task in Europe. The late Baron Speck Von Stern- berg, German ambassador here for many years, explained to American officials the view on German colon- zation in China at the time they wers taking form. Baron Speck had served in China before comring here and took a prominent part in the negotiations connected with the establishment of colonies. He maintained that it was reasonable and natural for Germany, with her increasing population and commerce to seek colonies abroad, as England had done. Acquired By Lease. Baron Speck took some part in the negotiations by which Germany sought to participate with England in the development of the rich Yang- Tai region, but when this failed the | attention of Germany was centered on Kiao-Chau. which had been acquired by lease from China as part of the indemnity for the killing of German missionaries in Shantung, After the China-Japan war, when China's weakness was for the first time disclosed, the break-up of China is saild hy Germans to have been wide- | ly discussed by English public men, this phrase being changed later (o “Spheres of influence” embracing England at Hong Kong and the Yang- Tsi, Germany at Giao-Chau, [Prance in Tonkin and Russia at Port Ar- thur and Manchuria. Japan Dominant. The Russian-Japanese war ended Russia’s claims to Port Arthur, Man- churia and KboOrea; and thereafter Japan took a dominant part in thes: territories, all of which had been part of China or unaer her sovereign- ity. Thus according to the German view, China’s territorial integrity was no more violated at Kiao-Chau than it was by the possessions of the other great powers—England, France, Russia and Japan—which continue to be held without any suggestion that it is a violation of China's ter- torial integrity. Therefore, Ger- many is liable to ask why she should give up Kiao-Chau in order to preserve China's “territorial in- tegrity” while England, Japan and the other great powers retain their possessions in China. The “Open Door” Policy. Secretary Hay's “open door” poli was in accordance with the gener principle of China's territorial integ- rity and the equal rights of all coun- tries in China. It is pointed out that the American policy throughour, both as to territorial integrity of China and the “open door” in China has been one of principle to secure fair and equal treatment, but has at no time developed into a policy of forcible instistence against foreiga colonies at Kiao-Chau or elsewhere. BRISTOL BARN BURNED. Bristol, Aug. 19.—A large barn be- longing to Mrs. Blair Brockett was burned early today with its contents. It was set on fire by lightning during a heavy thunder storm. The dwelling nearby was saved with some difficulty. The loss is estimated at about $1,200, QUIT GERMAN CAPITAL Tourists Even Claim They are Quite Comfortebie at Berlin. The Hague, Aug. 19, Via London, 4:40 A. M.—Many Americans are | 1oath to leave the German capital ac- cording to a newspaper man who has just reached this city from Berlin af- ter a long trip. In some instances they declare that they are quite com- fortable. « “Everything foreign has been erad- jeated from Berlin during the last fortnight,” says the newspaper man. “A shop in Friedrichstrasse, which was called the Prince of Wales, was well nigh demolished by a mob. Ev- erywhere French signs were torn down. A restaurant in Kurfuersten- Damm was destroyed by a crowd af- ter the orchestra had played a Rus- sian alr., No French words are al- lowed to appear anywhere, even on bills of fare. “Cursed English Stuff.” “] asked the walter in a restaurant for a certain English sauce. He re- plied angrily, ‘We no longer serve that cursed English stuff.’ “Most Americans traveling in Ger- many have not yet come to realize | the real gravity of the situation. | These Americans are a curious lot. | They seem to think the war a kind of play, ‘great fun,’ and cannot realize that war in Germany is not like war in Mexico. “Several Americans were arrested at Mannheim because they were pho- tographing a railway station, and the American ambassador had the great- est difficulty in obtaining their re- | lease. Ambassador Gerard is kept | busy rescuing imprisoned Americans i or helping others of his countrymen | who need advice or money, Thousands of persons daily are besieging the | American embassy in Derlin, seeking passports or assistance, Advised 1o Leave. “Always the advice of the embassy ‘leave the country as soon as you can' But the Americans generally, with true Yankee obstinacy, reply ‘Why leave when we are so comfort- able here?” whereupon they are told ‘Yes; but next week there may be no meat or bread, or perhaps the IR jans will come’ “To this the tourists answer | credulously, ‘well, we guess we | stay and see the fun.'” is, in- will POINCARE HONORS BENOIT. | Cross of Legion of Honor Conferred Upon Mayor of Badonviller, Paris, Aug. 19, 12:25 a. m.—Pres- ident Poincare has signed the nomina- tion of Joseph Benoit, mayor of Ba- denviller, in Meurthe-et-Moselle, for the Cross of the Legion of Honor, in recognition of his exhibition of energy and magnanimity According to the officlal o, Lenoit's wife was killed by Germam soldiers, who burned their home.
