UMPIRE IN PLACE OF BULL
Mexican Editor Is of Opinion That
Baseball Is More Spectacular
Than Scientific.

Jose CampOS is the editor of the Ex,
celsior, daily paper of Mexico CITY.
When in New York recently the Mexi.
can spent an afternoon at a baseball
game. He thus records his impressions
In New York Herald.
A large game of baseball was cele-
brated this Afternoon in the Polo arena
in the city of the Bronx, large ride
by train from New York city. As is
the custom of the United States of
North America, many of the business
houses closed for the afternoon, so EN-.
ployees might attend the spectacle. At
least 100000 civilians, soldiers and
many women and children were pres.
ent.
The pitcher for the New York city
troupe was very valiant and charming.
The baseball clothing is not as pretty
as that worn by the toreador but the
players carry themselves well. The
game is played with the hands, but is
not like pelota in any respect. The OBJ
ject is to keep the ball off the ground,
and the troupe which does so the long
est wins the game.
In place of a bull baseball has an
umpire, a man who does not play the
game, but who is authority of the
game. Unlike the judge of the bull
fight, he stands on the field. He is
not goaded with pixies, banderillas and
finally the sword, as is the bull, but is
the recipient of abuse from both play
ers and the multitude seated in the
huge arena. Instead of another bulI,''

a "robber" and 'big fathead."
The people at baseball game con-

smoking. But these occupations of the
mouth do not prevent perpetual yell

tie English to understand the things
cried at the players or the umpire. But

classes are used.
On a large board at the back of the
field is enumerated the number OF

The troupe dropping the ball the few

bull fight, it is difficult to predict which
will win. In that respect the American

press Regret for Deten-

LONDON, June lathe situation
at Libau, Esthonia, which Is held by
the Germans while British naval
forces are in the harbor, has resulted
In several demands being made on the
Germans by the Allies, according to
information received.
A dispatch from Copenhagen saws
that May "a five British naval officers
we're arrested by the German military
authorities, but were released after
being detained for five hours. Com
plant was made by the senior British
naval officer, but General Won der
Goltz, the German commander, refused
to receive it. A telegram from Berlin
says that Marshal Foch on June z in
sisted on behalf of the Allies that an
apology should be offered the British
authorities.
The Allies, according to another
telegram from Berlin, also are de-
handing the removal of the guns
which the Germans put in place at
Libau. According to private informa-
ton here it appears that the Germans
placed field guns in a position where
they pointed directly at British de-
stroyer. The Allies, it is said have
informed the Germans that all Ger
man shipping to and from Libau will
be suspended until the demands of the
Entente have been met.

The Peace Delegation

PARIS, June IA (By The Associated

TRANS to reply to the peace treaty will
expire Tuesday, but no serious COM
prehensive reply is expected from them
by that date, owing to the failure of
the Entente representatives to supply
them with the remaining parts Of the
treaty.
The missing sections, particularly
the political and separations clauses
and the ILLUMINATION of parts of the
frontier, are admittedly essential to an
adequate understanding Of the signif-
canoe of the fragments now in Chan
cellor Renner's possession.
The conference leaders are there
fore disposed to grant any Austrian re-
quest for more time, and will make the
preparation of the missing clauses ur-
gent in the first order of next week.

Berlin Not to Get
Allied Reply Until
Monday at Earliest

WEIMAR, June 10 (By The Asso-
ciated Press). - The government
learned to-day that the answer of the
Allies to the German counter proposals
would not be delivered before Monday.
Thus the reply cannot be discussed
by the National Assembly before Tues
day or Wednesday. The members of
the government, however, will remain
in Weimar until the answer is re-
ceived.
No reason for the delay in handing
in the reply was given in the ad-
vices received by the government, but
the impression was gained that the
delay vas favorable to Germany, un-
less it happened that it was caused by
deadlock in the Allied councils.
In view Of the delay of the reply
until next week the Majority Social
lists convention will extend its sessions
as far into next week as may be
necessary.
