BL0CTON TAKEN INTO CAMP.
Massey's Business College Team Will Tackle
 the Reds Monday.

If Blocton's brass band was in town yes terday it didn't have the nerve to strike up a tune when the score of the ball game at West End park was announced as 22 to in favor of the Birmingham Reds.
 The best audience of the season witnessed the game yesterday. The Blocton had be- hind 1t a lusty crowd of rooters, and during the first few innings the noise reminded the sordid crank of old times in Birmingham.
 The game in the first inning promised to be close, both sides going out in one, two, three order In the second, however, Bir- mngham made three runs. In the next inning the order was one, two, three. In the fourth Birmingham chalked two and Bloeton made their only run. It was easy sailing then, tripets and two-baggers ant rotten errors yielding enough runs to win three games.
 LaPorte found Finnon, the Blocton pitch CT, for a. clean. home run and the other players had no trouble in hitting him.
 The Reds played almost an errorless game, Blocton's one run being made by a clean hit by Donovan, a steal and a two bagger by King. Willig, who pitched a steady game throughout, only allowed one more hit making a total of three. In addi- tion to this, he struck out ten men, while three men fell victims to Blocton's pitcher. LaPorte. in catching a wild ball, slightly injured his hand, and Shorty Switzer went behind the bat in the last inning

Paris, Oct S.-The United States
peace commissioners began their usual
three hours session at 10 o'clock ;his
morning. They are understood to have
taken into consideration direct sugge.-
items ana counter propositions from the
Spanlards, OF which the Americans naw
have enough to engage their attention at
the daily session 1t is quite likely that
the SPauiards have already outlined their
apparent expectations, and that they are
beyond the line of possible acquiescence
by the Americans. The latter are act
ing along well considered lines con-
sistently and with Il definite end in view.
They have to some degree disclosed
American expectation and determination.
The Spauiards. however, seem unable or
unwilling 20 understand or believe the
Americans may, or have set forth their
requirements, and that they are destined
to remain virtually unchanged by
finesse or counter diplomacy.
While the Philippines have not yet
been reached in the deliberations, this
question is doubtless relatively not fur
distant, and at that point is likely to
come to the fun stress of the diplomatic
controversy.
referring to the Philippine phase of
the negotiations the Gaulois to-day says:
The question was somewhat touched
upon. though not discussed yesterday,
but, there was enough to indicate serious
difficulties when il does come up.

berg Hospital at Camp Thomas, Chicka-
mauga Park, Ca, and Captain Baldridgs
a brigade commissary Of subsistence II
Camp Cuba Libre, Jacksonville, FLA
Both contributed much information in
regard to the two camps.
The commissioners have practically Dc
cided to start on the night of the 18TH
on a round of the various camps. They
will go to Camp Meade or to Jacksonville
first, but are not yet decided which Ali
the camps viii be visited in succession,
but the understanding is that the trip
to Camp Wikoff viii not be made until
some time in November. Next week will
be given largely to the inspection Of Off
cial reports and to other statements
which have been furnished in reply to
letters from the commission.
Major r. Emmett Giffn was brigade
surgeon Mt Camp Thomas and told Of his
visit to the Second division hospital in
July last when he said it was over
crowded. In each tent and its flies fhere
were eight or nine men when there
should have been but from four to six.
There was a sufhciency Of physicians
and Major Giffin was sure they were
competent men. The majority of patients
were suffering from typhoid fever ana
venereal diseases, about 20 per cent
being of the latter class. He thought
the crowding of the hospital was from
lack of sufficient tentage, a fault due
to the surgeon in charge. DR.. Gif6n
made his visit to the division HOSPITAL
to see man of his brigade who had
been shot in the leg. He found him in
a tent with typhoid fever patients and
consequently had him removed The Iii
