LONDON, March 1-Gelmany

ence with the Allies, here today, made
reparation offer of approximately
1900 100000 gold marks or about
ST. 100000. 1t was understood out
side the conference that after Dr..
Simons, the German foreign minister,
had finished his statement to the con
ferees, Mr. Lloyd George, the British
prime minister, replied in substance
that unless the Germans had some
thing more to offer than appeared in
Dr. Simon's statement there was no
need of continuing the conference.
Mr. Lloyd George told the German
foreign minister: IF the written pro
posals are of the same general cna-
racter as the explanation of the terms
it is not worth while for US to read
-hem. You have a complete lack of
comprehension of the position OF the
Allies and of your position. We will
discuss among ourselves your reply
and give it to you tomorrow at II
} clock" When the Germans left the
,onfernece they appeared to be great
y depressed. Premier Lloyd Ge rye
md Brian We're smiling as they came
from the conference chamber.

ming. The keen rivalry existing be-
tween these two teams has always
meant a big crowd at the contest
the game this week will draw as
large or even a larger bunch of fans
than usual.
Fac hof these teams has a game to

Billy Mossa, are away and it would
be hardly fair to play the champion

city tribe boasts of some very excel
lent material and a fast and spirited
tussle is assured.
Rudolph Bigelow, considered one
of the star shots in this section can
ring baskets with comparative ease.
If Buster has some one to feed him
the ball, scores for the Newport side
will be chalked up with little trouble.
"Enghshman' Jimmy Jones, a veli-
table young tiger in the fray, will do
his full share to worry the local for
