Fits WILL RUN THE 44o.
Worcester and Andover Track Teams
Will Clash Today.

The Worcester academy and Andover
academy track teams clash at Wor
cester today. Andover has the best
team in many years and began the
season last week by defeating the Har-
ward freshmen team rs to 10. This is
Worcester s first meet, and although
several of their best menS are off the
team because of classroom difficulties
they have strong and well balanced
team and are confident of a victory.
Haas and Malone of the baseball team
are two of the men who are expected
to win points for Worcester. Fits,
who lives in Brattleboro, will run the
440 and possibly the 220-yard dashes.
In this event is Captain Prescott of
Andover and Swift, who has a record
of so seconds for the 40. Worces-
ter's chief strength is in the field
events, for in Shaw and Murphy they
have pair who are throwing the
hammer around 165 feet. The meet is
expected to be very close and interest
ing.
The next meet is May Is, when Wor
cester sends. team down to Cambridge
to the Harvard interscholastics, and
their season closes with a dual meet
with Dartmouth freshmen at Woreestel

WORCESTER, Mass, May 8.

BY defeating the Brown university
I'd baseball team Thursday, Worcester
academy brought her record of victo-
ries up to 3S straight. The last de-
feat was sustained by this team May
25, 1912, when the Harvard freshmen
defeated them to 3 in u innings.
This record has not been made against
high school or weak academy teams,
but rather against college varsity, sec
ond or freshmen teams or against the
teams from the large prep-schools in
the East. This is undoubtedly the best
athletic record ever made in any
branch of sport by a preparatory school
in the country
The Worcester team this year is
captained by Haas, who pitched n
game or two for Northampton in the
Twin State league last year, and the
team is managed by Roy McGillicuddy,
son of Connie Mack. The record to
date follows:

milton. This looks TO be reas on
able inference The Baltic sea is
closed by the Germans and the
White sea has been closed by ice for
the past six months. The Turks are
still holding the Dardanelles The
result is that Russia must depend on
her own ammunition factories and
on supplies from Japan and the west
coast OF the United States by the
long route through Siberia. The
secret OF the desperate efforts of the
allies to break through the Dardanel-
les is first to supply Russia with
guns and munitions of war and sec.
ondly TO bring out the Russian wheat

BECKER'S CHANCE <. FUR LIFE |S ! GONE

NEW YORK, July 1O.-Justice Hughes of the United States Supreme Court has refused to issue a writ of error to bring the Becker case before ! the full bench of the Supreme Court. , This ends the last chance that Becker had for life, as Governor Whitman of New York has said that he would not grant a further reprieve believing that Becker was guilty. Becker will go to the electric chair some time during the week of July 26, and the curtain will then go down on the last act of the tragedy that commenced with .s the murder of Herman Rosenthal for Srefusing to pay hush money to the New York police department.

IMPLIES WILL ATTACK AMERICAN VESSELS


note contains The vital question to the admnstra- tion is the matter of the safety of American lives on the high seas. This question is entirely ignored by the Germans and would seem to indicate that they consider the attack and consequent killing of Amcr
 cans on the high in the Lusitania as justified. The note says that Germany is confident that the United States would assume to guarantee that all vessels from America leaving our ports, and carry
 ing passengers, should have contraband of on board. The note suggests also that the details of the arrangements for this procedure be agreed upon by board composed of naval officers of both countries. The people in Washington have drawn the implication from this that Germany proposes to destroy American vessels if they found carrying cOntraband of war. -

MEN QUIT u BS AT THE RIVER
 CANNERY

Arrivals on the train yesterday brought down the news that the fish ermen at the Copper River Packing Co.,, at Abercrombie had gone on . strike The difficulty is over the amount paid by the company for the fish. There are three classes of fish ermen employed. The contract men, who were brought from Seattle get paid 11ac per fish, but they are guar anteed gross earnings of $4OO. Other fishermen, whose gear is furnished by the company receive cents per fish, while the third class, who furnish their own gear get 21A cents per fish.
 There has been about 36 men in all employed at the cannery, and they conferred and agreed to ask Mir Han ley, the superintendent for a wage scale of 4c a fish, and an allowance of $15.O0 per month on their board, The men have been having their board deducted from their earnings. When the demands of the men were pre- scented to Mir. Hanley, he said that he considered them excessive, but that if they would make a reasonable demand he would meet it. According to the story told by one of the fisher. men, MT Hanley would not state what he considered reasonable, so the men decided to stick to their original de mands.
 The last fishing done in the river was at the close of Thursdays work At that time all the nets were taken from the river, and no fish have been caught since. The men claim that the fish have been running so poorly that they have been unable to make wages for the last three weeks. It is said that the superintendent has tele graphed to Seattle for more men.

WASHINGTON, D. O., July l0-The reply re ceved from Germany to the second American note is on the whole considered evasive as was the first.
 The only definite proposal made in the reply to change the present situation with reference to the activity of the German submarines, is where Ger many makes the suggestion that ships of bellig- erent could be used to carry American passengers to neutral or other port, flying the American flag provided the United States would guarantee that they would not carry contraband of war This proposition is certain of rejection by the Wilson administration because the United States eould not

WILL WAIT
 FOR PUBLIC OPINION TO SHAPE

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 10.-The govern men officials here all disposed to await the return of the president from New Hampshire before com menting on the German note, which is absorbing the interest in the news of the day. Secretary of State Lansing told the newspaper men that the matter would not be formally considered until the receipt of the official copy of the note which would not reach Washington until late tonight. The general idea seems to be that Wilson will do he did before and wait for public sentiment to crystalline before taking any steps.
 His policy will be to find out what the country thinks about the case and endeavOr in his next move to interpret the wishes of the American people. The question will hinge on whether Germany will again violate the rights of the United States citizens to sail the high seas in unarmed ships If Germany should bring about any further loss of American lives in contravention of what this government asserts is the law of nations then the situation will be brought to critical juncture, the continuance of friendly relations will be almost impossible

GERMANY CONTRADICTs OUR
 STATEMENT ON LUSITANIA

WASHINGTON, D. C., July .l0.-The reference in the German reply to the sunken Lusitana has been the cause of profound impression among the people of the country. This more than any other in the note raises sharp difference of opinion between the two nations, and one which 1t seems cannot be cured After having asked the United States in its first note to consider the Lusi tania as an armed auxiliary cruiser of the British navy, carrying high explosives which statement this country contradicted in its second note with official
 information, Germany again iustifes the sinking of the vessel thereby refusing to dsavow the act of her submarine, as the United States asked her to do.
