A large crane has been erected
near the freight house to be used

The Robert Emmett club of this
place has adopted resolutions pro-
testing against the proposed arbitra-
tion treaty which it is said is now be-
ing negotiated between the United
States and Great Britain. The Ian.
guage Of the resolution is both clean
and forcible and shows that much
thought was given the matter. A
copy of the resolution has been sent
TO the president of the United States

man of committee on foreign rela-
tions and TO the senators from this
state and the representatives of this

The meeting of the managers and
players of the Firemen's baseball
team which was held Tuesday night
amounted to very little because of
the small attendance at the meeting.
II can be said now, with almost Il
certainty, that the old board of
managers will refuse TO act again
this coming season. and L is now
thought that a special meeting of
the company will be called before
long. at which a committee will be
appointed TO take charge of affairs
Of the baseball team, as 1t Is not
quite likely that the company will
give up the baseball business yet as
they own and control the best and
probably the only available SPOT in
the borough that could be used as
a bsll field.
