BALKAN AFFAIRS

Sofia, June 16:—The Bulgarian
Government has replied to the

a | Servian invitation for demobiliz-
f| ation, urging, in effect, that the
f! Allies adopt the Bulgarian pro-

posal for a general arbitration.

A The Bulgarian note goes on to
say that they are ready for a
q | simultaneous demoblization, but
i | suggests that in order to prevent
fi further attempts at any outside
B|pressure, the contested district
Hibe for the time being occupied

by mixed garrisons.

The British Government has
been appealed to direct King
Ferdinand te favor a demobiliza-
tion similiar to that proposed by
Servia.

The pressure brought to bear
by the powers upon the Balkan
Allies is thus having an excellent
effect, and Servia, finding that
her claims were likely to lose her
the sympathy of Russia, took the
course of proposing that the Czar
should arbitrate the points in
dispute, .

Greece is now in a position
from which nothing can be gain-
ed. War between herself and
Bulgaria waa only really feasible
if Servia joined her. She lays
elaim to the southern portion
claimed by Servia, which lies he-
tween the Strumar and Vardar
rivers and includes Salonica,

Belgrade, June 16:—M. P,
Sitich, the premier, resigned this
morning.

Sofia, June 16: — Dr. Daneff,
who is at the head of the peace
delegation at London, has formed
a new cabinet, himself taking the
portfolio of foreign affairs.

Millions for Cranby

New York, June 18 :—The!
board of directors of the Granby
Consolidated has been successful
in completing financial arrange-
ments for the company’s work
at Granby Bay, The develop-
ment of the mines and establish-
ment of the smelter will require
an expenditure of three millions.

TIGERS LOSE THROUGH
ERRORS IN SIXTH

The third preliminary baseball
game between Hazelton and
New Hazelton, played at the lat-
ter place on Sunday, was a bet-
ter exhibition of ballplaying
than had yet been seen this .sea-
son, The home team won by

4-5, {errors in [thejsixth allowing | |

half-a-dozen scores.

From a spectator’s standpoint |:

the game was a good one. A
double play was credited to each
team. In the third, Sinclair
baught a nice fly off QOass’ bat,
sending it into second in time to
catch Winstead. In the sixth
Cameron took a grounder from
Macdonald and landed Emmons
at second and the batter on first,
Except for the second and sixth
both teams played a tight game.
A series of bad errors in the
sixth lost the game for the Tigers.
Cameron and Finney made a
strong battery for the New
Town, The former was at his
best, while Finney handled his
delivery ina manner justifying
advance rumors of his ability as
acatcher, North and Lofquist
were the battery men for the
Tigers until the seventh, wlien
Hillis replaced ‘‘Cy.'* North’s
pitching was a pleasant snrprise
to local fans, and but for poor
support in one inning, he would
have had a shut-out to his credit,
Lofquist had an off day. Me-
Millan was in good form atshort,
covering a lot of ground and let-
ting nothing get away. Em-
mons is proving ageod find. He
is a clean-cut player and always
onthe job, Kelly was away and
Sinelair replaced him at center,

Lynch was tried out in Tight
field. Manager Sinclairis trying
out his material before the league
games begin, and will have a
good line-up for the regular
series,

“Square Deal’ O'Neil was
missed from the umpire’s box
but Jack Robbins gave general
satisfaction, being made arbiter
after the first innings.

‘Local and Personal

A. C. Aldous, of Aldous &
Murray, Ltd., states that a pro-
ject is on foot to procure a sup-
ply of mountain water for Smith-
ers. It is proposed to construct
a reservoir at-an elevation of 800
feet above the level of the town,
giving high pressure for fire pur-
poses,
