FAST M. C. r. r. TEAM
WINS FROM TIGERS, 1O.1

The Maine Centrals defeated the
Tigers Friday afternoon by a score
Of 10 to 1. The game was exception
ally good until the six inning. when
the Maine Centrals piled up five
runs on hits and errors. Orcutt. the
Tigers pitcher. sprained his arm in
the second, but pitched six innings,
when he was forced to retire on ac-
count Of the strain, because he could
hardly throw the ball to the catcher.
Huard. the young Tiger pitcher.
pitched the other three innings and
allowed the Shops only one hit.
O'Brien was hit hard but the field
ing Of his team pulled him out of
some bad holes. The Tigers had
men on every base but some star
plays of the Maine Centrals stopped
the scoring. Sukeforth. the Maine
Contra, boy, made a good catch in
left when he slid on the ground on
his stomach and caught the ball
with one hand. Alley got two nice
running catches in centre. O'Donnell
and Sukefcrth starred at the bat.
The Maize Centrals are said to
have the fastest team in the State.
Over 1000 fans witnessed the game
this being the largest crowd that
had attended the games this year or
even since the John Coombs day.
Both these teams are tide for place
in the Twilight League.
The game Saturday will be. be-
tween the Hollingsworth &Whitney

forces that we may count on besides
those resident In the Department Of
Justice. We have just fully awak-
ened to what has been going on and
to the influences. many Of them very
selfish and sinister. that have been
producing high prices and imposing
an intolerabie burden on the mass OF
our people. To have brought It all
into the open will accomplish the
greater part Of the result we seek.
appeal with entire confidence to our
producers, our middle-men, and our
merchants to deal fairly with the
people. It Is their opportunity to
show that they comprehend, that
they intend to act justly. and that
they have the public interest sincere
ly at heart. And I have no doubt
that iousekeepers all over the coun-
try and everyone who buys the
things he daily stands in need OF will
presently exercise a greater vigil
ance. a more thoughtful economy, a
more discriminating care as to the
market in which he buys or the mer-
chant with whom he trades than he
has hitherto exercised.
Labor Leaders Will Come to Senses
ST believe, too, that the more extreme
leaders Of organized labor will present.
ly yield to a sober second thought and.
like the great mass of their associates.
think and act like true Americans. They
will see that strikes undertaken at this
critical time are certain to make mat
tiers worse, not better-worse for them
and for everybody else. The worst
thing, the most fatal thing. that can be
done now is to stop or interrupt pro-
! duction or to interfere with the distri-
, button of goods by the railways and
| the shipping of the country. We are
all involved in the distress sing results Of
the high cost OF living and we must
unite. not divide, to correct it. There
are many things that ought to be cor.
rected in the relations between CAPT
tai and labor. in respect Of wages and
conditions of labor and other things
even more far-reaching: and I. for one,
am ready to go into conference about
these matters with any group Of my fel.
low-countrymen who know what they
are talking about and are willing to
remedy existing conditon by frank
counsel, rather than by violent confess.
Nc remedy is possible while men are
in temper. as there can be no settle
ment which does not have as its mo-
tive and standard the general interest
Threats and undue insistence upon the
interest of a single class make settle
ment impossible. I believe, as ! have
hitherto had occasion to say to the
Congress. that the industry and life OF
our people and of the world will suffer
irreparable damage if employers and
workmen are to go one in a perpetual
contest as anita gonists. They must. on
one plan or another. be effectively asso-
ciated. Have we not steadiness and
se'f-rossession and business sense
enough to work out that result? I'm
doubtedly We have. and We shall work
it out. In the meantime-now and IN
the days Of readjustment and recuper-
alton that are ahead of us-let US resort
more and more to frank and intimate
counsel and make ourselves a great and
triumphal nation by making ourselves
a united force in the life of the worii

WILSON REMEDIES
Continued from Page One)

Chairman Lodge of the Senate
Foreign Relations committee issued
a statement in particular reference
to the Presidents illusions to ratifi-
cation of the peace treaty.
Senator Lodge declared that no I'M
due delay was intended in the Senate
and that the body had been acting as
speedily as it could. He called at
tention to the fact that the President
took seven months to negotiate the
treaty and the Senate, sharing an
equal responsibility in it, had been
in possession of the document only
a month. No other nation excepting
Great Britain has ratified it. Senator
Lodge said. and he pointed out that
it was not yet before the Senate Of
France. The country, as a matter
of fact, he said. was at peace with
Germany, and trading with her. The
Foreign Relations Committee, he re-
iterated, has been unable to get in
formation necessary to its consider
alton. Senator Lodge thought the
President had made some good and
practical suggestions in regard to
prices.
Senator Poindexter took issue with
the President on his statement that
the Food Control Act only covers
foodstuffs and declared that the ad-
dress convicted the administration Of
permitting present conditions to ac-
crue

Either becaus fewer surface cars
were operated or because the police
guard was more ebert. there was less
disorder today than yesterday. Few
cases of serious injury to car crews
were reported. The fewer casualties
from this cause were counterbalancej
however. by the number Of accidents
