Good Game Witnessed By

cussed ball game between the M.
X. & 7. ball teams of Parsons,
Kansas. and Dallas, Texas, came

day and the good or ill results there
OF have been accomplished. The
crowd from out Of town was large
and very orderly, consisting most.
ly OF Office people and clerks gen.
orally, among whom. were many
former residents Of Vinita. The
Frisco from the east brought near
ly two hundred, the Kansas dele
cation came in on the flyer and
numbered perhaps one hundred
and fifty; the train from the south
brought in the largest crowd, hav-
ing taken on over two hundred and
fifty people at Muskogee and Wag-
oner. All told there were perhaps
between seven and eight hundred
people in Vinita from surrounding
towns.

Washington Officials Not Dis
posed to Unduly Hurry
Negotiations,
Believing COnsummation of the
French Treaty Will Do
the Work.
II They Do Not Come in France
Is Expected to Take Compet-
tive Trade.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-While, tech.
nically speaking, negotiations looking
to the making Of reciprocity treaty
between the United States and Ger.
many are still in progress, practically
nothing has been accomplished in that
direction since the departure Of the
German ambassador, Herr Won Hol.
leben, for Germany early last summer.
There is no disposition whatever on the
part OF the stat. department to EN-.
barrass the German government by any
inastence at this time upon an active
prosecution of the negotiations. While
Tar from satisfactory, the existing con.
ditions Of the American export trade
with Germany, can, it is believed
by the officials, be tolerated for q short
time. 1t is believed that when
the German government has secured
what 1t believes necessary, certain con.
cessions from the reichstag, it will be
ready to meet the United States. At
any rate conviction of this kind has
inspired the United States government
to avoid any urgent representations con.
nected with the reciprocity negotiations
at this stage.
Another Reason for Delay.
There is, perhaps, another reason for
the negative course taken by our gov.
ernment. This is desire TO learn just
what effect the ratification by the United
States senate Of the pending French re.
ciprocity treaty would have upon the
German government 1t is said by the
officials here that as the French treaty
gives preferential rates to many articles
which figure largely in the list Of
German exports to the United States
the effect of the practical application Of
the French treaty would be to confer
upon France all that share of the Amer
ican market now occupied by Germany
To save this important trade to her man
ufacturers, Germany must, it is argued
secure o similar reciprocity treaty, ano
this can only be secured by an abate
ment Of the restrictions on the importa
tions Of American meats and other prod
ucts. This. by II natural working Of th
laws Of trade and commerce, it is con
ceived by the officials that our govern
ment, may be able to entirely avoid
recourse to the tremendous power
lodged in the president, Of prohibition
. of trade with nation that discriminate
. against the United States.
