and II Scores.

Lieut.. F. H. Bertram. manager of
the Seventh infantry baseball team.
was very much peeved on Saturday
afternoon. The Seventh was carded to
play the goth infantry in an exhibition
game for the benefit of the Texas hero
monument fund When Bertram and
his men reached Rio Grande park, he
found q bunch of alI-stars cavorting in
Feldman uniforms. The Seventh man
ager thought ne was 70 play a pickup
team from the 2Oth. that regiment not
having a regular team this season. and
it didn't fit in with his idea Of things
that he should send his men against

Jimmy York has pitched better ball
than he did on Saturday but he was
putting them over TO the best Of his
ability in the early innings Jimmy
saw that there was no chance for his
team TO win and eased up near the
end Claude Graham was in fine form
With perfect support he would have
had a shutout for il was an error that
let the Seventh score. Graham had a
real strong team behind him He
knew il and pitched mastery ball
Next to Graham. Manda was the star
OF the game. Playing at short, he
made some wonderful pickups and he
can throw from any position He was
fast as a streak Of lightning on the
paths. Bert Graham had his war club
with him and his two hits drove in
three runs Benny Benjamin cele-
brated his first appearance at bat by
clOuting the pill TO the clubhouse for
a home run. On the next time up.
Benny tried to repeat but il was good
for only three stations But 10 de-
tail the fine work Of each player

said. however, that Doc" McCamant

ENGLISH DENY
TRADE SHUT-OUT
Russian Swedish Agree
ment Explained as
War Action

Wash ngton, Dec. S.-Great Britalns
recognition of the agreement between
Russia and Sweden for regulation Of
imports into the former through the
latter was said at the British Embassy
to-day to be wholly without design to
impose fresh restrictions OH American
or other neutral trade with Russia
Recognition Of the agreement. 1t was
said, was the sole purpose of the issue
Of the British circular agreeing to
accept letters of assurance as the
basis Of such trade through the block
ade lines.
As explained at the British En-.
bassy, the circular, which was dated
in October, was intended for the in
formation Of trade interests, and did
not add in any respects TO the list OF
articles which might be passed
through the blockade lines, as the list
had already existed for long time
and had been published officially in
England. Moreover, the limitation
upon the importations as a whole was
imposed actually by the Swedish gov
tIHmtHls II Ndo NtNidiNbs hhN NV
Great Britain.
This is explained by the fact that
the Swedish government has limited
to certain kind and amount the
goods permitted TO pass through Swe-
den to Russia, making its allowances
upon the amount and kind of goods
which the Allies permit the Swedes
themselves TO obtain through the
blockade lines for their own consump-
ton.
The Limitation imposed by the
Swedes upon the character of goods
that might be imported, being in some
cases rather general in terms, the
Russian government was allowed IT
self to name the commodities which
il wished to be granted preferential
right of transit through Sweden.
II was this list which the Trade
Department of the British Embassy
adopted as an accommodation to the
Russian and Swedish governments and
promulgated in its circular as tho
basis of letters of assurance.
