The third props" and the sophomores

versity of Indiana diamond yesterday after
noon. The game resulted in victory of
s to for the "preps," The battery for
the "preps'' was McGaughey and Cunning
ham; for the sophomores Roberts pitched
and TowIes caught The feature of the
game was the pitching of McGaughey,
who, although young, is thought to be, de-
veloping into one of the swftest pitchers
Butler has had for several years. Roberts
did some excellent work. The girls of the
preparatory department were out in colors
and wells for their champions.

Colonies and pirates Split Even.

PITTSBURG. May 5.-The Pirates and
Colonies played two games and split even
on the day. Hawley's miserable work in
the first inning and a half was responsible
for the loss of the first game. When
Hastings relieved him the handicap was too
big to overcome. Hemming was taken out
in the third inning because the home team
was hitting him hard. The second game
was well played. Both pitchers Cad their
opponents guessing most of the time. At

EXPERTS TALK OF SEALS.
Canada Will Ask Protection for FISH
Along Canadian and New

Washington, Nov. 12-The third session of
the experts on seal life was held at the
state department to-day. all of the repre-
sentatives of the United States. Canada and
Great Britain being in attendance except
Sir Wilfrid Laurier. who spent the morn
ing in visiting the Catholic university. Mr..
Adams. first secretary of the British em-
bassy took his place as the diplomatic rep
The effort is maintained to keep the pro-
ceedingS strictly secret at this stage.
1t is stated upon good authority that the
Canadians will ask counter concession
from this country in the way of a guar
antee for the protection of the Northern
fisheries in return for any alteration OF the
sealing regulations to which they may give
their consent. They take the position that
the fish along the Canadian and New
Foundland coasts are as much the property
of Canada as are the seals on the Pribylon
islands the property OF the United States
and contend that they have as much right
to make demands for the protection of the
fish against American fishermen as we have
to ask the Canadians to agree to further re-
Their specific complaint is that while Cana
dian laws prohibit fishing except within
certain seasons, the American laws do not
impose corresponding conditions and that
while the taking of the fish can be pro-
hibited during the closed seasons within
their territory it cannot be controlled out
side OF these boundaries. Many of the fish
which properly belong within Canadian
waters are thus picked UP out OF season
by American fishermen. Sir Wilfrid Laur-
Ter will ask the United States to agree to
the protection of these fish during tho
breeding season as an onset for any seal
concession to which Canada may consent.
