DEFEATED AT BURLINGTON.
spaulding High Lost at Basketball, rs
to 70, Last Evening.

In a game played at the Y. NJ. G. A.
in Burlington last night, the Spauding
high school basketball five suffered de-
feat at the hands Of the Burlington high
school team by a score Of 25 to 10. In
many respects it was the fastest game
the Barre boys have engaged in this
season 0utweighed almost to man.
the Spaulding team fought bravely to
overcome small lead that the Burlng.
ton quintet gained in the early part Of
the game In passing ability, the two
teams were evenly matched Discount
ing BurIington's familiarity with its own
floor aud baskets, the Spaulding boys
plainly outdid their opponents in locat-
ing the basket Several fouls were
called on Spaulding by the umpire, Bee
man, although both teams freely engaged
in using both arms,
The Barre team started in the first
period with rush that promised com
mandng lead. Carroll located the loop
for two baskets in the opening minutes
Of the game. Powers aud Alden, how
ever, came back with pair for Burling-
ton that evened the score. Carroll and
0gston pulled off some pretty plays in
this period as did Powers and Hughes
for the home team. Until the last few
minutes of the period, both schools
fought tooth and nail for the lead, but
a basket and foul by Powers left
the score at IL to IA in favor Of Bur-
lington when the whistle sounded.
In the second half of the game, the
two teams settled down. and scoring oc-
Cured less frequently than in the first
period Spaulding seemed to weaken
slightly at this stage. while their OPP
ponents gained strength ii anything.
The ball was usually found IN the middle
OF the floor. although Burlington lost
several excellent chances to score
through faulty shooting Williams and
0gston fought gamely and were the only
Spaulding men TO score. Palmer and
Hughes put in some aggressive work for
Burlington in this period. The referee
was obliged to call time frequently dur
ing the last half as players on both
sides were continually retiring for minor
injuries.
A good sized delegation Of Spaulding
rooters, including members OF the alumni
attending the university Of Vermont,
was present in the balcony The line

This is the way the game appeared to
the reporter on the Burlington Free
Press:
when the high school and the Spauld-
ing basketball teams lined up in the
Y. NJ G. A. gymnasium las tevening.
there was no doubt that both teams
were equally determined to win the
game. III the fastest, hardest and most
interesting contest Of the season the
home team defeated tho Spaulding boys
by score Of Is to 10. At the begin
ming the Burlington team seemed rather
dazed at the trength aud speed OF their
opponents, but soon woke up and at
tho end Of the first half were ahead, the
score then being II to a. The Barre
boys showed themselves to be wizards
at basket tossing, making score al
most every time they had chance to
shoot. However, the home team mixed
things mp so that they did not have
many opportunities to exhibit their skill
The features of the game were Burling
tons team work and the shooting of
Carroll for Spaulding. This is probably
the last home game and if Burlington
captures the return game at Barre they
can Justly claim the state champion
ship.

Livestock Men Pass Resolution.

Denver.-The issuance of national
currency on wheat, corn and cotton as
collateral. while still in the possession
of the grower, was recommended by
the resolutions committee of the Amer
ican National Livestock Association at
the annual convention in Denver. The
recommendation will be made in the
form of suggested amendments to the
proposed currency system recently re-
ported by the national monetary COM
mission after four years of financial
Investigations.
The amendments are held to be Of
the greatest Importance to the South
and West, to the cattle raiser as well
as to the farmer. The benefit to the
livestock men is indirect, it is ex-
planned. Issuance of currency on the
three worldwide commodities will re-
lieve the financial congestion of each
fall, and thus preclude the righ rate Of
interest which cattle men often are
compelled to pay in order to handle
their product, say the proposers of the
amendments. Under the proposed mon
etary system, as reported by the ma
tional commission, collateral on which
national currency may expand extends
to little more than commercial paper.

Washington.-The House committee
on foreign affairs unanimously agreed
on the SulZer resolution directing the
immediate abrogation Of the 1882
treaty between the United States and
Russia because of the discrimination
by Russia against American Jewish
citizens in the recognition of pass
ports.
The committee will urge Congress
to take quick action on the resolution.
The resolution has been made a spe-
cial order and an effort will be made
to rush it through the House without
delay.
The demand for the abrogation of
the treaty with Russia has been gener-
al throughout the country, following
charges that American Jews are not
permitted to visit the empire without
persecution.
Recently mass meeting was held
in New York, at which several men
of national prominence urged that the
pact be nullified. 1t is claimed that
the Russian religious persecution has
extended not only to Jew, but that
Catholic priests and Protestant min
listers from the United States have
been barred from Russia.
