THE HOME BOYS WIN /
Hass' Bulldogs DO Up the Mllaca
Swifties in a Well Matched
Game Played Sunday.
High School Boys Redeem Themselves
by Walloping the Cambridge
Bunch to a StandstiIl.

Hass' Princeton nine and the Milaca
team went into action at the fair
grounds on Sunday and played a
splendid game of ball which resulted
in score of to in the home clubs
favor.
Princeton gathered in 2 scores in
the third inning and from then until
the sixth there was nothing doing.
But in this inning Milaca crossed the
plate four times on two hits and a
comedy of errors, assisted by a base
on balls. The visitors secured their
final score in the ninth.
In the seventh the locals could get
but one run over and things began to
look bad for them, as the boys from
Milaca were putting up a pretty stiff
game.
Then came a grand rally in the
ninth inning, when the locals snatched
the bird of victory, which Milaca was
so sure of, by sending three scores
over the plate with but one down.
It was victory we'll earned, and
the boys certainly redeemed them
selves after playing that vacant lot"c
game over at Foley a week ago. i
Both pitchers worked we'll, although
Swain had the best of it, allowing
but 3 hits and striking out 6 men. He
had speed, good control, and was
there with the willow beside. It was
a great and glorious game and
demonstrated what the locals can do
when they have a fair show. The
score by innings was as follows:
Princeton ..........0 2 0 O 1 SO
Mllaca. ...-........ 0 0 0 @ 0 Is
Two base hits, Smith; struck out by
Wilkes, 2; by Swain, 6. Time, l:45;

Corporation Counsel Hally Writes
President Hutchins, Acquainting
Him With View Of Aldermen.

Negotiations between the city cour
ell and the Detroit United railway fol
a lower rate OF fare, TO be put into
effect without awaiting q franchise
election, were begun by Corporation
Counsel Hally. on behalf of the coun
ell. Thursday. Hally drew up letter
TO be sent to President Jere G
Hutchins. Of the d. u. r.. acquainttnl
him with the views of the council
committees on franchises and ways
and means, as expressed In the meet
ing held In the corporation counsei's
ONCE Wednesday afternoon.
This letter Is expected to lead to q
conference between the city ofncials
and the company over terms OF tenn
porary agreement. Mayor Bfeitmeyer
was not present In the meeting Wed.
nesday, nor at another held Thursday
morning in Hally's ONCE, which Aid.
HARPER. Gilman. link and some other
members Of the council attended. The
mayors ONCE was notified some days
ago by Hally that such meeting
would be held.
Arranging a temporary agreement
seems to have been considered as pc.
culiarly a council matter. the ener-
gies OF the mayor being bent toward
the final settlement. Following the
fizzle of the Glinnan-Nichols resolution
for a temporary settlement, Hally
wrote letter to the council advising
against any sporadic action, and his
view was SO warmly Endorsed by the
aldermen generally that the confer
ences resulted.
What the aldermen want, II II is
possible for them to get the ID. u. r.
to consent to 1t. Is the trial of an

Mayor Breitmeyer has been In favor
of hurrying a general settlement.
rather than patching up a temporary
plan and carrying the matter OF a
general settlement over into next
years campaign. He expressed the
opinion, Thursday. that the aldermen
may find that the ID. u. r. Is unwilling
to negotiate at this time, with all the
questions OF cost of service. physical
values, etc. left to be determined
when the committee of fifty report Is

SPECULATE ON COMMITTEES.
Aldermen Wondering To Whom Glln
nan viii Hand PIums.

There is much speculation among
the aldermen as to the committee ap-
pointments to be made by Aid. Gin
nan when he Is elected president OF
the council next January. The move
ment for q new caucus has died away
and there Is no present probability
OF opposition to Gilman.
II il believed that Aid. Shapland
will be chairman Of the ways and
means committee. Aid. Goeschel of the
streets committee, and Aid. Wing will
remain head of the sewers committee
Aid Rosenthal will retain the chair
manship of the markets committee. II
Is said. and Aid. Theisen. Walsh and
Rutter will get better places than
these they now hold. Aid. Gutman
may head the franchise committee
as that will be big one during the
coming year.
Aldermen who may lose their present
chairmanships are HARPER, fran
chises; Watson, ordinances; Freiwald

Particular interest will center In
the streets and sewers committees
as those are the ones which handle
