Last Word May Not said.

From the way White House officials
discussed the situation, there existed no
doubt in official circles tonight that the
instructions to Mr.. O'Shaughnessy to
convey the desires Of the United States
TO General Huerta were substantially az
outlined in dispatches from Mexico City
last Monday, although the State depart
ment denial that any "ultimatum" had
been sent was regarded by many, con-
Nersant with the situation as indicating
that the United States government it's
communication to Mr.. O'shaughnessy did
not necessarily mean that it had said its
last word.
1t became evident at the White House
that the president considered the cleo
tons of October 26 not only invalid as
10 the vote on the presidency and vice
presidency, but also as to the election OF
members of congress. The news dis
patches indicated today General Huerta
would convene the newly elected congress
and abide by it's decision as to the le-
sslity OF the elections. This was gem
orally looked upon here as showing an
intention on the part of General Huerta
to have the election nullified while he
continued In power indefinitely.
The president made II plain to callers
he had no intention at present OF placing
the subject before congress. though he
is in close touch with the capitol through
Chairman Bacon of the stnate foreign
relations committee. II is not regarded
as likely that the president will make
any move until lie hears from General
Iluerta through Charge o'Shaughnessy.

IN HONOR OF THE
 BRAVE TWO HUNDRED

Local Servians celebrated the great victory at Scutari last night by brass band serenading, speech making, etc. John Vim, William Merchant, John Olds and other wellknown citizens took part in the entertainment. The High School brass band was out and played lively airs at prominent street corners, at the Occidental, and at Burford's.
 At the corner of Seward and Front after the band had played two selec- tions a swarthy looking man deliver ed an address in substance as fol- lows:
 "Friends and fellow servians, we are assembled with feelings of love for our country, to do honor in our humble way to the memory of our brothers who have fought and died that our homes may hereafter be for ever free from the thraldom of the Turkoman, our enemy during more than five hundred years.
 Many of our brothers and friends have recently left their new found homes on these shores to give their aid, their strength, and if need be, to sacrifice their lives that the land of our birth may be free. They are noble souls though only common working men, and their unselfish love of liberty and justice for all, com mends the admiration and respect of the world.
 Tt is little we can offer for their acts and deeds of heroism, but our heartfelt sympathy goes out to the bereaved fathers and mothers for the sons that have been sacrificed. It is their lives and love of home and coun- try their courage and unselflsh sacri- flee, that inspires us and supports our faith in God-and gives us great CT hope for the security and sanctity of our homes, for the safety of our schools and for the freedom in the religion of our forefathers.
 Great honor is due the two hun dred' Montenegro heroes who went to certain death in their onslaught on Scurati-they died that the peo- ples of the Balkans might live with out fear. Their deeds will live and be cherished in the hearts of liberty loving and free peoples of the earth The pages of Servian history already glorious is made still brighter by the heoric sacrifice for the independence of our country.
 We shall leave it to the historian of the future who shall trace out the origin of the forces that shall bring about the United States of the Bal kan Peninsula, to do justice to the nobility of the men who have redeem ed our lands from the Turks"

JUNEAU PLAYS A TIE
 GAME WITH DOUGLAS

An intensely interesting game of soccer, resulting in three goals each, was played on the Juneau grounds yesterday afternoon between the Douglas-Treadwell team and the Ju- neau team. Both teams lined up strong and played with every ounce of strength at their command. An accident occurred which resulted in serious injury to C. King, playing with Juneau. Dr, Sloane is attend ing to the injured man. The boys have new uniforms, and they look pretty nifty in the bright new clothes. The DougIas-TreadweI boys wear blue sweaters and white pants while the Juneau lads wear scarlet sweaters and white pants.

CLUBS ENLARGE
DIRECTOR BOARDS
Plan to Have Ten Men in Each
Tri-optic City Is Favored
Springfield in Debt.

bloomington, Ill. Dec. 22.-Enlarged
directorate boards are growing popular
in the Three-I league. Bloomington,
Danyille. Decatur, and Peoria have de-
cfded 20 increase the number OF di-
rectors and thus divide the financial
burden and risk. In the past three to
five men have assumed the obligations
ia each city. A number Of the Three-l
associations favor ten men on the
board. and il is probale that this idea
will be found advisable in most of the
cities.
While there is activity in seven cit
les Of the league concerning prepare
lions for the 1914 season, one, Spring

lem of finances. The erection OF a
new grand stand saddled heavy debt

BASEBALL MEET
AGAIN DEFERRED
Absence OF Peoria Committee
Causes Delay in Settlement
of Affairs.

Peoria, Dec. 22.-Because of the alb
sence from the city OF ]. W. Mcdowell
and c. S. Jones the meeting of the
stockholders of the Peoria Amuse-
ment company, owners of the Peoria
Three 'I' league franchise. has been
again postponed until next Saturday
night. Mcdowell and Jones some
time ago were appointed a special
committee TO consider plans for the
disposal of the clubs holdings or ar
range means of continuing baseball
in Peoria and their presence at the
stockholders meeting is necessary be-
fore any further steps may be taken
in this regard.
Many rumors have been current re-
garding the possible disposition of the
Peoria club of the Three "T' league,
but so far nothing of definite nature
has been given out by either Mcdowell
or Jones. The most probable plan
yet advanced, in the eyes of those
familiar with local baseball conditions,
Is that some local man take over en-
tire control of the club and personally
direct its affairs as a business propo-
sition, without the handicap of the
differences which are always present
in company organization. Whether
this arrangement will be effected or
not is as yet unknown, but with the
return of Mcdowell and Jones this
week it is thought some immediate
action will be taken.
