BILLS TEAM is GREAT.
soreIy Defeated Miles City on Its Own
Grounds Yesterday.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
The Billings ball team returned
home at 2:30 this morning, wearied
from the tedious night trips to and
from Miles City, and exhausted from
excessive base-running.
For the first time since the memory
of man runneth not to the contrary,
Billings not only defeated Miles on its
home grounds, but rubbed it in by the
humiliating score of % to 1. The per-
sonnel of the respective teams was
practically the same@ as when they
played at Billings two weeks ago, at
which time Billings won by the close
score of Z to 6. But yesterday the
boys in the COW county were COM
pletely ''locoed" while the Magic City
bunch gave the fastest exhibition they
have yet put up.
Billings started the fireworks in the
first inning with two runs, were shut
out in three innings only, and piled up
nine runs in the seventh. 1t was "a
great day for fattening batting aver
ages and Miles southpaw twiT'ler was
touched up in shameful manner;
however, a liberal sprinkling of errors
on the part of the men behind him was
Irresponsible for many of the runs. The
Billings team played gilt-edged field
ing game, but one error being charged
UP, which gave Miles it's solitary score.
Kings performance in the box was
lsomething superb. He gave but three
widely scattered hits and had the
|heavy slugging Milesians completely
at his mercy, striking out Is men, He
pitched himself out of several bad
holes, used his head at all time in
splendid style, and batted like fiend
sticking the ball over the fence for a
home run in the seventh inning. Egan
at short was one of THE star7perform
ers and was the idol of the grand
stand for his extremely clever work
Iboth in the field and at the bat. He
accepted many difficult chances with
out a bobble and batted the ball al
over the lot, getting three beautiful
hits and walk.
Dwyer ait third was strictly in tht
game all the time, and put the or
posing pitcher ON the shelf in the f1rs
inning with a terrific home run drlV
over the outfield fence. He hit tn
ball all the time and played a cleve
fielding game. Platt behind the ba

Geo. F.. Davies said Lloyds were not
interested in the Honolulu end Of this
matter. He thought the bond should
be signed as a matter of law. This
would throw claims back on the insur
ers. Mr.. Berg said: 1--WE will endorse
bonds where the contracts are In force.
/ Chairman Smith said the general re-
suit of the discussion seemed to be
that 1t would be best to sign the bond,
the insured having their bonds guar

the insurers for damage sustained, "

The song of the broom and the shovel,

And the scruhbing OF window and floor

IT'S the war Of the women on microbe

Their weapons? A broom and pan.

terminate the present tariff arrangement
between that country and the United
states. when the new treaties she has ne
sotiated with several European govern
mcnts take effect. The United States at
the present time enjoys an enormous
trade with Germany and while we can
not afford to lose it, the way In which
the same can be retained does not read
lily appear. In the first place the attitude
of Congress toward reciprocity treaties
is not rcassurins. In treasury circles
there is a complaint that the government
should not be left the unsatisfactory
system of trying to negotiate treaties
which may be accepted by foreign gov
crnments only to have them rejected by
our United States Senate. This fate nat
urally leads the foreign government con-
cerned to feel injured. and as result
our commercial relations with that coun-
try are likely to be less satisfactory than
before.
In the second place II 10 held that II
We were inclined to grant extraordinary
trade privileges to Germany we could not
afford to do SO since the adoption OF such
q course would almost inevitably injure
our greater trade with England. since
Great Britain would naturally not con-
template with complacency any extra
Iordinary favor from the United States
Ito Germany in the matters of trade in
view of the fact that she opens her mar
kets to us without any return what
eyer in the way Of concessions on thu
Immense amount of goods coming from
the British islands into this country.
1t Is suggested in treasury circles that
the present tariff law. while 1t provides
for retaliation against countries which
discriminate against the trade of the
United States makes the burden Of re
sponsibility too great upon the executive
a better method, it is claimed. woul'
be to rass a law providing that where 8
country does not give to the United
States a ground floor entrance int
her markets the tariff rates shall be ad
vanced, say 50 per cent, against tn
products of such country.
Such a law would not be operative
against Great Britain, where we arr
among the favored nations or in on tn
ground floor" but it is claimed by higl
officials that such a retaliatory Law
would bring Germany or any other cOun
try disposed to discriminate agnins
United States products to terms. 1t |

trade with Germany is in our favor sh
cannot afford to have the market 70
