LET GOOD SENSE PREVAIL.

THE EMPIRE believes that the
 people of Juneau and Douglas
 in general and those who have charge of baseball sport in particular are too sensible to permit town rivalry over athletic prowess to develop into contention. Athletics ceases to be sport when Quarrelling begins. or when those engaged in them are un- justly assailed.
 In view of what has occurred. a word should be said about the criti- cisms of James Barragar. who has been umpiring the games. which all but spoiled yesterdays game at Tread we'll. There is no man in all the North who has a finer or cleaner athletic record than NIT. Barragar. His won, derfully successful athletic career be- ginning with the famous Multinomah Athletic Club, of Portland, was con. tinued with the Tacoma and Seattle Athletic clubs and at Whitehorse, SkaSway and Juneau. He has not only succeeded as a baseball player and manager. but he has won numerous medals at sprinting. jumping and other field sports, and at bowling, handball and other indoor games. His expert knowledge of athletics, his Quickness ot thought, his soundness and accura cy of judgment. his fairness and high conception of the spirit and ethics of sport have never before been question, ed.
 So far as the charge that he has been gambling on the games is con, cerned, Mir. Barragar says it is not true. and those who know him will not question his word.
 If foolish pickering is permitted to compel the retirement of such men as Mr. Barragar from Gastineau channel baseball it cannot fail to result in last ing injury to sport in this section oi Alaska.
 The people of Juneau and Douglas have exhibited commendable public spirit in securing baseball teams that are capable of and are giving the peo pie excellent exhibitions of the Na tional game. The spectators and play CTS should show their appreciation by conducting themselves in such a man ner as to retain the interest and parti cipation in the game of all those who understand it and who can. coutribut, to it's perfection.

Treaties Bind Great Britain, France,

DISPUTES,

Washington.-In the presence of the
cabinet, Secretary Bryan signed peace
treaties with the diplomatic represen-
tatives of Great Britain, France, Spain
and China.
These treaties bind each of the coun-
tries and the United States to submit
to investigation by an international
commission for period of at least a
year all questions which cannot be set
tied automatically. During the pc
riod of investigation hostilities can
not be opened.
With the signing Of the treaties
Secretary Bryan's peace pacts number
twenty-six. of which nineteen already
have been ratified by the Senate.

western Newspaper Union Nsws Service.

Washington. on.-Evacuation of Vera
Cruz was ordered Tuesday by Presi-
dent Wilson. The American soldiers
and marines under General Funston,
who have held Mexico's principal sea-
port since 1t was seized by the fleet.
April 81, last, will embark for home
as soon as transports can go after
them, and shortly afterward all of the
war fleet except few light-draft yes.
sells will be withdrawn.
The order for evacuation was for
mally announced at the White House
after long cabinet meeting.
The reasons for the step were set
forth in the following statement from
the White House:
The troops have been ordered with.
drawn from Vera Cruz in view of the
entire removal of the circumstances
which were thought to Justify the oc-
cupation. The further presence Of the
troops is deemed unnecessary"
The President discussed the subject
with his cabinet. some of whom. it is
understood, did not favor the move.
1t was finally the consensus of opinion
that the main purpose of the Amer
ican expedition to Vera Cruz-to pun
ish the affront to the flag at Tampico
had been achieved through the occu-
patton itself and the forcing of HUI
erta's abdication as provisional Pres
ident.

It is understood that the allies will
be willing to treat with peacemakers
ON the condition that Germany with
draws from France and Belgium. An
indemnity has not been mentioned.
1t is likely, according to Washington
officials, that the treaty, when it does
assume shape, will limit the size of
armies and navies hereafter.
Wilhelm May Heed Wilson.
Inasmuch as Germany is trying to
float loans among German bankers and
capitalists with no great success; since
there is clear possibility that her
territory will be invaded in both east
and west; and since her maSses face
destitution because of crop losses and
paralysis of industries, President Will
son believes the kaiser may be willing
to enter preliminary negotiations at
this time-before matters become
worse for his country.
Germans Back go Miles.
London.-The sixth week of the
war between Germany and France
Great Britain and Belgium has
brought vast transformation. The
! pursued now are the pursuers. The
irresistible sweep of seven German
armies through Belgium into France
met an immovable force at the Marine
river. The army of General Vor
Kluck, which so long battled to turn
the allies western flank, was itsel
slowly and steadily outflanked. Its
retirement before the small but hardy
British army turned the tide of bat
tie.
Retired More Than Sixty Miles.
Today, if the French official report!
are correct, all the German armies
except that facing Verdum and few
miles southwest, are retreating. Gen
eral Won Kluck's army, which a weel
