TAFTVILLE HEARD FROM
Reply to Letter From Baltic Mule
 Spinners.
Taftville, Conn. Sept. IS,

Taftville, Conn.,, Sept IS, 1917 Sporting Editor, Norwich Bulletin. Dear Sir:-In reply to the Baltic mule spinners' statement in Wednes- day mornings Bulletin.
 If the Baltic committee remembers on August 18th. on the ball grounds at Taftville the Taftville committee was ready to settle after the game but Baltic stated that they hadn't got any money from the Red Cross girls who were selling the tickets and they did not know how many they had sold. But Taftxille Monday night. the 27th of August and settle up with us, and we waited every night that week and they did not come down.
 They stated that they came down last week and met the committee. They saw only one of the commit tee end they paid him for a ball that they owed for since August 25th.
 The committee asked the Baltic committee to come up to the spinners' meeting and we would settle with them. but they refused to come. Now If the Baltic spinners are gentlemen they will come down as soon as possible and we will settle with them
 In sregards to sportsmanship, we think that the Taftville spinners are just as good sportsmen as the Baltic spinners are and may be a little bit better. The Taftville committee would like to have the Baltic committee sold so we can count them all up and then we would know how many were sold altogether. We don't doubt their word, but think 1t is the proper way to settle up

The elevator, which passes from
his possession, was built by John ii.
Lynds, in 1905, and on December IL,
1906, il was burned to the ground,
entailing a loss to Mr.. Lynds Of some
$4,000. Mr.. Lynds, at once, rebuilt

Mr.. Windell.
The Sentinel extends welcome to
Mr.. Windell, believing that he has
made no mistake, for he will find his
elevator to be located in one Of the
finest grain belts in all North Mis-
