SITTING Up Of NIGHTS
WORKING MEXICAN PUZZLE.

tary Bryan, refused to talk for publ.
cation To his intimates he is under
stood to have stated his opinion that
this government is through with
Huerta. 1--WE must either eliminate
him from the Mexican situation or be
the laughing stock of all the powers, is
the opinion OF the senator, and as a
service with the confederacy, he is UNI
derstood to have expressed the opin-
ion that there we're many worse things
for nations than war.
Tonight, long after the white housa
was supposed to be closed to all visi.
tors, Senator Stone OF Missouri, anoth-
er member of the senate foreign rela-
tions committee arrived. He admitted
he had been sent for. Ten minutes
later Senator Swanson of Virginia,
put In an appearance. He was quick
" ushered into the presence OF his
colleagues and President Wilson.
Before the two senators left the
executive, Speaker Clark Of the houss
of representatives arrived. The trio
were inside nearly two hours. Wlren
they emerged in turn they said:
Senator Stone-"Oh I had a littIe
appointment to settle and came here
Senator Swanson-"I wanted to pay
a little social visit"
Speaker Clark-'Tt was personal
business"
These statements were persisted In
even though attention OF the three
party leaders was called to the fact
Tor the part they have transacted all
business with the president in execu-
tive office during the day and the
president talked to no one today with
the exception of members on Mexican
affairs. Later In the night Swanson
said that he also had talked on cur
rency but when asked point biiSsk to
deny that he had discussed the Mexi-
can question. he refused to reply.
Rumors In Mexico.
MEXICO CITY, Nov. s.-Graye ap-
rrehensions was felt here tonight OF
serious disorders tomorrow because OF
The unsettled conditions. Sunday is
the Mexican's weekly holiday and fre-
quently Is marked by rtoting and ok
cesses.
Al feeling of unrest was In the air
over General Huerta's long delay in
answering the United States and due
in part to the presence here OF John
Lind, President Wilson's special en-
voy. and the many wild and ground
less rumors floating about.
Lind, SO far as known, has not seen
Huerta or any Of his officials since he
came from Vera Cruz. He put in the
day convincing such Mexicans as call
ed upon him and some other foreign
ENJOYS whom he met, that the United
States is not blufing and means to
force Huerta from the presidency one
way or the other. No confirmation
was obtainable for any conflicting re-
ports flying about for the very good
reason that Lind, Charge OShaugh-
messy, Huerta, Sir Lionel Garden and
the others mentioned In them refused
to talk. For the same reason, they
went undenied, which gave some COM
fort to their circulators.
A rehashed rumor was that Lord
Cowdrey of the Pearson syndicate, a
British oil concern. had been prom
ised large concessions by Huerta in
return for which Cowdrey would see
to 1t that Great Britain stands by
Huerta.

School Notes

The first baseball game of the sea-
son was put on the home grounds
Saturday afternoon, when the local
high school boys crossed bats with the
Ortonville high school team. AT first
it looked as though our boys would
be defeated AS they were smaller than
the Ortonville fellows, but the boys
went into the game with spirit and at
the end of the first inning the score
was | to 0 in favor of Ortonville, and
at the end of the second it was 2 to 2
with our boys batting strong and with
MADEIRA in the box, striking the Or
tonville men out as fast as they
stepped up to the plate, MADEIRA
struck out six men in the first two
innings and about twelve in all. In
the fifth inning Ortonville had three
men on bases and one man out and
the boys succeeded in pulling out with
out letting Ortonville make another
score. The sixth inning raised the
score 6 to in our favor and it was q
sure game for us as the boys picked
every thing that came their way out
of the dirt and at the end Of the eighth
inning, Milbank had 8 and Ortonville
q, in the ninth Ortonville succeeded
in running in one more score making
the final score to in favor of Mil
bank. All the boys need now is
little support and encouragement from
the citizens of Milbank and they will
have winning team, so, come out to
the next game and you will certainly
get your moneys worth.
The line up as follows:
