The league season of 1906 was a
grand success for the first year. We
played out the entire schedule with
out change in the clubs and. made
base ball the most popular game in
this part of the country. In 1907
we have a far greater opportunity;
with one years experience to guide
us, with all Of our old players, and a
host of new ones attached by the
wide advertising the league got, we
should have a wealth Of material.
BY the addition of Minot and Mon
dak, we have both enlarged and
strengthened the league and by near
ly doubling the number of games
this year, we should make both fin
80
season.
The inclosed is proposed schedule:
BY playing Sunday, Wednesday,
and holiday games we could play the
entire series from May 9Th to August
II, using the following dates: :.

August 4, z, II.
At our annual meeting we must
adopt a schedule, elect officers, and
revise the constitution and bylaws,
especially that section relating to the
release of players, as we have far
outgrown that restriction now.
Hoping to meet you all at White
Earth, March il, with your heads
full Of ideas, and your hearts full OF
enthusiasm, am,
Sincerely yours,

WALKER STILL MISSING.
Alleged Bank Defaulter Has Not Been
Caught.

NEW BRITAIN, Conn.,, February 16-The
directors of the Savings Bank of New Brit
ain have re-examined the securities in the
bank vaults and have found $1,000 worth
which had been reported missing. reducing
the total shortage to 1858 900. The loss of
securities to the Connecticut Baptist con-
vention is definitely fixed at $4,000.
The supposed clue to Walkers movements

lieved to be the information that man an
swering to a general description of Walker
is passenger on a steamer bound for Mex
leo. The directors are confident that the
missing treasurer will be found within a
few days.
An unsigned postal card postmarked Clin-
ton, Conn, and stating that Walker could
be found at 113 North street, Brewsters, N.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., February 49,
Only nine bodies of the seventy-five recov-
cred from the steamer Larchmont. sunk
in Block Island sound last Monday night,
after collision with the schooner Harry
Knowlton, remained to be identified when
the morgue opened today.
Three of the dead were identified just be-
fore the morgue closed at midnight last
night They were John A. Hicks. fireman
OF. the boat: a. A. Holier, home unknown,
and Daniel Mcintyre of Boston. Should
any more bodies remain unidentified after
today the city authorities will bury them
at the municipal expense.
United States steamboat inspectors will
come from New London to take the state
ments of Capt McVey of the Larchmont
and the few surviving members of his
crew, and an investigation probably will
be made into the charges of cowardice
brought against Captain McVey and some
of his men. The crew of the Knowlton
have already MADE their dispositions to the
United States authorities at New London,
in which they claimed that the fault of the
collision lay with the steamer.

SENATOR ALDRIcH RETURNS.
Expects to Call Up His Financial Bill
Early Next Week.

The unexpected return of Senator Aid
rich to the city today caused some specula-
ton al the Capitol as to possible complica-
tons over the legislative program. Sena-
tor Aldrich went away Thursday evening
and it was thought he would remain until
Monday, but he appeared in the Senate to-
day. It was said, however, that his return
was not significant and that he had made
only quick business trip.
Senator Aldrich expects to call up his
financial bill early next week and there is
thought to be every prospect of it's speedy
passage. Senator Nelson of Minnesota in
tends to offer amendment to the bill
providing that banks shall pay interest on
government deposits. This proposition has
been considered in the Senate heretofore
and has been rejected on the ground that
the courts have held that when banks pay
interest on government deposits, the gov
eminent then becomes an ordinary creditor,
whereas If the banks receive deposits with
out paying interest, the money constitutes
a trust fund and the government is a pre-
ferred creditor
1t is thought that the sentiment in the
Senate will be unfavorable to the Nelson
amendment and that the bill will go
through practically in it's present state.

NEW YORK, February 16.-The steam
ship Valdivia of the Hamburg American
Atlas line came into port today with her
smokestack down, her entire deck super
structure amidships a mass of wreckage
and a casualty list of seven killed and
three injured in an explosion of the boiler
of the donkey engine, at sea on Wednesday
last. The ship carried but one passenger,
who escaped unhurt.
The names of the dead are:
G. Steinhagen, second engineer.
o. Selchow, oiler.
J. Salnzeer, trimmer.
w. Hanna, trimmer.
p. Dytho. storekeeper.
w. p. Simons, mess man.

Crazed by Pain.

The most seriously injured is Carl Gruner,
o fireman. who was scalded SO severely
that he became crazed and attempted to
jump overheard. He had to be restrained
by members of the crew. Another fireman
was scalded. and First officer Heinrich
Enickman was bruised and cut by the
force of the explosion. OF the three in
Jured, however, Gruner was the only one
who had to be carried away in one of the
. five ambulances which awaited the docking
OF the ship. He was taken to the Hudson
Street Hospital, and although he is seri-
ously injured it is expected that he will
recover.
The explosion occurred when the boat
was about 100 miles south of Cape Hat
teras. 1t was caused apparently by the
corroding of the joints between the boiler
plates. In some places an examination of
the remains of the boiler showed today that
the plates had been so eaten away by
rust that an original thickness of half an
inch had been reduced to an eighth. The
boiler, which was supposed to bear a
steam pressure of ninety pounds, exploded
when the gauge showed a pressure of
but thirty-ive pounds
The force of the explosion was terrific
Steinhagen the second engineer who was
making test of the boiler at the time,
was literally blown to pieces First Officer
knickman. who was standing near the star
board gangway. was blown aft through it
and landed. stunned and bleeding, against
the door OF the cabin, fifteen feet away. All
the suDerstructure of the deck near the
donkey engine was smashed into { confused
mass, the pursers cabin was STAYED in
the chart house blown up and the boats
on either side of the ship amidships were
smashed on their davits so as to be entirely
useless
The Valdivia is one of the ships which
the Hamburg American Line secured when
1t took over the old Atlas Lines charter
and equipment. She plies between New
York ard South American ports In the
fruit trade. She sailed from Santa Marta
on February 5. touching Inaguay. in Haiti
On the way. loaded with 10000 punches of

miles south OF Cape Hatteras on the morn
