TIGERS VERSUS GIANTS
GREAT BALL GAME WAS
AT MAPLETON
Correspondent Says Scorekeeper
Made Mistake; Lost Track
Of Notched Stick

Mapleton, Mimi, July 10.-Friday,
July 9, was an eventful day in Map
Teton. 1t was a day full of sunshine
and prospective showers. When the
evening arrived the clear pure air
outside was very inviting. This was
the night upon which the "Schwietzer
Giants" were to cross bats with the
LOOMS Tigers" Both sides had
each had the full confidence that they
would win. The public sensed this
great event and Mapleton awoke from
her slumber which has been continu-
Gus since the chautauQua which sill
emily went away in June. The young
men and maidens, old men and wives,
doctors, lawyers, merchants and the
chief were there in autos and on foot
ready to witness the wonderful test.
The Two Managers.
Manager Schwietzer in his towering
heighth and winning smile sat con-
fident, knowing full well that the
Not so with Manager Loomis of the
Tigers, who binds every energy to
inspire and encourage his Tigers to
the best there is in them, and one
Is sure had not the scorekeeper made
a mistake by cutting nick on each
side of his stick and then forgetting
which side was which, the result
might have been different, as it Is
both sides claim the victory. There
were but two casuals, Oscar Borchert
and Karl Schultz. who will be able to
play the deciding game later. The

BRINGS NEW CONCERN
Mankato Civic and Commercial As
ISOLATION Has Not Been Idle.

Mankato Civic and Commercial As
ISOLATION Has Not Been Idle.
Among the problems which are be-
ing taken up quietly by the Civic and
Commerce association Is that per-
tanning to housing, which the commit
tee on that subject is now wrestling
with. Another committee Is working
on the question of locating an aerial
field in this city. One or two sites
have been viewed, but no definite ar
rangements have been made for the
rental or purchase of either. Still
another committee Is looking after
the landing of new industries for this
city, and the matter of securing head
quarters for the association.
Through the efforts of the associa-
ton one new concern has been Sc
cured for this city. That Is the G..
and G. Drug company of La Crosse,
Wis. This firm manufac tures stock
remedies, and wishing to get nearer
the center Of a better farming dis
trict, has selected Mankato for it's
new location. M. M. Gruendler, man
ager of the concern, was in the city
today, and the Civic and Commerce
association is aiding him in finding a
suitable location.

PUNISH WAR GUILTY
Conference At Spa Takes
Up the Question
WERE LACKING
German Trials Will Be Watched
BY the Allies As An
Experiment.
Associated Press Dispatch.1

lA0ooSlaICo Ooo A>A0HS~~~'S
London, July 10-News that the
German delegation at Spa had signed
the agreement to accept the allied de-
mands relative to disarmament was
received quietly in Berlin yesterday
says a dispatch to the London Times,
filed at the German capital late yes
terday.
The people, the message says, gen.
orally realized Germany must accept
the allied terms, although there was
much activity in political circles and
popular feeling against disbanding of
the security police.
Discuss War Guilty.
German contentious that the list of
Germans accused of violations OF the
laws of war must be reduced II the
collapse of the Berlin government was
to be avoided were discussed by a
commission which meet here this
afternoon, according to an official an
nouncement. Jules Cambon OF FRANCE
was chairman Of the commission, the
members of which included repre-
sentatives of Great Britain, Belgium.
France Italy and Germany. One Of
the German delegates was DR.. Carl
Heinze, minister Of justice.
Baron Birkenhead, lord chancellor
of Great Britain, opened the discus
sion, referring to statement by Ger
man delegates this morning relative
to the difficulties encountered by the
German court at Leipsic because Of
a lack of detailed charges made
against ACCUSED Germans by the al
lies. He declared the commission had
decided trial at Leipsic should be &C
cepted by the allies as an experiment.
and that the commission would con-
fine itself to producing evidence from
countries other than Germany. He
suggested this evidence should be &C
cepted according to the rules OF pro-
cedure practiced in the countries
from which 1t came, admitting that
the German attorney general and
court had been given a very difficult
task, assuming that bonafide effort
truth.
Request For Charges.
For this reason, Baron Birkenhead
asserted, German authorities should
be entrusted with the information re-
garding charges made against Ger
mans and also the nature and effect
of the evidence to be adduced, al
though he thought responsibility must
rest with the supreme court. Nego-
tiations, therefore should be begun,
not through diplomatic channels. but
through the German attorney general
and the corresponding legal officers
OF the allied countries.
Dr. Heinze. speaking Of the Ger
man government also expressed the
opinion that all communications
should be between the law offices of
the different countries, the names OF
whom were given him
