BALL FIELD ROWDYISM DRASTIC MICASIRES ADOPTED BY RATIONAL LEAGUE MAGNATES In Extreme Canes n Penalty of Ex- pulsion for Life Provided by the Code Tribunal of Three to tarry Out the Xew Hales of the Leugue. ST. LOUIS, Mo., March I.—The base ball magnates of the National league were tired out with their late session of last night, and it was long after 10 o'clock, the hour set for convening, when they came together. Very little business was transacted at the morn- ing Besslon. It pertained to telegraph iir.d railroad matters. The telegraph question was settled by allowing each club to do business with which ever telegraph company it chooses. The railroad committee, not having closed arrangements with the companies for rates, was continued in office indefi- nitely. At the afternoon session the doors were thrown open to newspaper men, who were given an opportunity to lis- ten to the report of the committee, ap- pointed last year, to devise means for d> bag away with rowdyism on the ball fit Id. John T. Brush, chairman of the committee, presented the report, which embodied communications from base ball magnates, umpires, members of the press and others interested in the national game. These communications showed the necessity of adopting some measure to do away with the evil. All of the club representatives present Bpofte in favor of suc-h action, but dif- fered as to the details. On motion of President James A. Hart, of Chicago, the press representa- tive s present were asked to express their opinion on this subject. They were unanimously In favor of some ac- tion looking toward the doing away of rowdyism and vulgarity. As the unanimous views of the com- mittee. Chairman Brush submitted a measure for the suppression of ob- scene, indecent and vulgar language upon a ball field by players engaged in playing a game of ball during the championship season. A vote was tak- en on the measure, and it was adopt- ed unanimously. Mr. Robison, of Cleveland, explained that whatever opposition he had Shown to such legislation had been for the purpose of bringing out an expres- sion of opinion. In the absence of President Freedman, of New York, his Vote was cast by A.H. Soden, of Bos- ton. Stringent Rolen. In pursuance of this measure of re- form and to carry Into effect its intent, twenty-three regulations of some length are appended, in substance as follows: The measure provides that the regula- tions shall be explained to and read by all players and employes in the league, who 6__all then bo obliged t<s sign them tor the purpose of showing this legislation had been brought to their attention. It is provided that it shall be competent for any person or persons, whether play- ers, manager, umpire, club official of any club, or spectator, to submit information and testimony in writing under oath con- cerning obscene. Indecent or vulgar lan- guage during the progress of a game by a player or employe of a Nauonal league club Of which they have personal knowledge. All charges of offense under this meas- ure shall be submitted to the president of the league under oath within forty-eight hours of Its alleged occurrence, the man- ager shall immediately furnish a copy ot tiie same to the accused for his defense with the written notice of suspension, if any. Five days, after the receipt thereof by the accused, shall be allowed the one charged with the offetise, for transmitting to the president of the league, under oath, of the defense, and the case when thus prepared Bhall be submitted by the prsident to a tribunal of three judges selected by this league to be called the "board of disci- pline," who shall have absolute authority to acquit or convict upon the evidence sub- mitted according to the rules adopted for its government and from which there shall be no appeal except to the board of direc- tors of the league. When a case Is thus submitted to said board, the president of the tribunal shall carefully consider it from the evidence submitted, taking into account the nature und gravity of the offense, Its Importance as affecting the welfare of the national game, the provocation for Its commission and siK>f other circumstances as may be submitted that are entitled to be consid- ered, and he shall report in writing his opinion and finding In the premisies. and if the offense be proven he shall affix the pen- alty that In his judgment should be im- posed, and forward the same, together with his opinion and conclusions and all the pa- pers, to his associate nearest the territory, who shall attach his opinion and conclu- sions and judgment, and forward the same to the remaining member of the tribunal, who shall forward his opinion, conclusion and finding and all the papers in the case to the president of the tribunal, and he In turn shall return the papers and opinions, conclusions and findings to the president of tho league, who shall carry into effect the judgment of said board or a majority thereof by suspending the player from his club for the period determined by the trib- unal or a majority, or acquit him, as the case may be. In Cn.se of DiviHion. When the members of the tribunal or a majority thereof do not agree upon a judgment, the president of the league shall select some one of the opinions as the one to be followed, (provided lt be not the ex- treme penalty), and that shall be consid- ered the judgment and be enforced. The penalties for using obsecene, Inde- cent or vulgar language within the mean- ing and intent of this measure are entirely within the discretion of the tribunal, and may be suspension for days, for months, for the unexpired season, for a year, or for life, according to the conditions, circum- stances and nature of the offense, lt being the sentiment of the league that creates this law that unwarranted, unprovoked and brutal use of vulgarity to a spectator or within the presence of spectators and with- in the hearing of ladies, should debar the offender for ever from service with his club or any other club member of this league or subject to its jurisdiction. The extreme penalty imposed in this measure, viz., "life expulsion," shall re- quite the unanimonus approval of the three members of the tribunal, and provided also, before imposing such a penalty, the ac- cused shall be notified that he can defend in person and by counsel, if he elects, in •which event the president of the tribunal shall call a meeting of said board at tome city to be selected by him. most convenient to the members and the accused. That justice may be done and no wrong commute it shall be competent for either parties to a case submitted to the tribunal to .show, under oath, the character and standing of those who make the charges and give evidence, and before the "life ex- pulsion" can be imposed the accused may, Ifhe elects, have the opportunity of cross- examining the witnesses against him by depositions. There shall be no appeal from a decision by the tribunal, or a majority, for a re- hearing or a reopening of a case, except If there is a history of weak lungs in your family, take Scott's Emulsion. It nourishes and invigor- ates. It enables you to resist the disease. Even if your lungs are already affected, and if besides the cough you have fever and emaciation, there is still a strong probability of a cure.

A. Hart and A. H. Soden are members, Has prepared an address to players, explaining the measure adopt- ed by the National league.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March I.— The out- door work of the Harvard squads was fairly begun this afternoon, when the captains of all four classes had their men out on the river. The seniors, sophomores and fresh- men had their barges out and made up crews. The juniors' boat was not rigged, and all the men were given tubbing practice. The work of all the crews was unusually good for the first day on the water, and was in marked contrast to the usual crude state of development at this time of the year. The seniors had two crews on the river today, and the men were coached by George Mumford. AuNtraliun Cricket. SYDNEY, N. S. W.. March I.— ln the last test cricket match, which began on Saturday between Capt. Stoddart's eitven and the Aus- tralians, the latter were out ln their first Innings today for 239 runs.

Jumped to His Dentil Kro.ll a Third Story Window Into a Crowded Chicago Street. CHICAGO, March I.— Willian A. Dod- Fon, an employe of a notion store on West Madison street, committed suicide In a most sensational manner. He climbed out upon the ledge of a third story window, and, as the street was filled with people, he shouted for them to look out. His cries attracted the attention of hundreds, but before anything could be done to save him, Docison had hurled himself to the street. His neck was broken and his skull crushed.

DILLSBORO, Ind., March I.— Justloe Craig, at Crc«s Plains this morning rendered a verdict acquitting Hughes, who was charged, ln an affidavit filed by Gov. Mount, of complicity in the Versailles lynching. Attorney General Ketcham is en route for Indianapolis. Inan interview, he stated that it is evident from ali the evidence obtainable, that the five men broke jail and hung themselves.

COMISKEY FEELS WELL THOSE TWENTY GAMES AT HOME , NEXT FALL 7. J " , If the Club Should Happen to Be Behind That Will Help Them Ont -No More Flirting: With Denter —The Popular Manager Feci* He Can Do Without Him. "How can we lose?" will again be the •slogan of the St. Paul base ball team for the season of 1898, and Manager Comlskey, who returned yesterday from the recent meeting of the Western league ln Kansas City, enthusiastically declares that from the present pros- pects there Is absolutely no solution for the above proposition. In Manager Comlskey's own language, "If we can't win the pennant this year we never can," and the qualification of the assertion Is at once eliminated by the confidently expressed prophecy of the manager that victory's streamers will float proudly from the flag pole at Lexington park at the end of the sea- son. The prediction, Manager „Comiskey says, ls based upon more reliable and substantial omens than the flight of birds. A favorable factor toward satisfying Saintly City's pennant ambitions ls the arrangement of the schedule of games adopted at Kansas City. The local team closes the season with a series of twenty games on the home grounds, and it is conservatively figured that a bowling alley complement of wooden Indians could pull themselves out of a deep pit under those circumstances, not to mention the possibilities of a grand stand finish on the part of Comiskey's colts, should they reach home for the final struggle several notches below the top. Manager Comiskey hasn't taken any one into his confidence as to how the end desired concerning the schedule was accomplished, but he looks happy and admits, with a smile, that h.> has at last gotten the kind of a sched- ule he has been fighting for in the league meetings for several years. The Western league season, as was stated with the publication of the complete schedule in the Globe the day after Its adoption at Kansas City, opens April21. St. Paul plays its first games away from home, crossing bats WILL BARK FOR PRIZES TWIN CITY CANINES ENTERED FOR THE GREAT DOG SHOW Complete List of Loral Entries Splendid Doe* of Aristocratic Lintoge to Be Exhibited Next "Week in Market Hall Many Others Coming: l'ri-inthe East. The local entry list of the bench show of th Neorthwestern Kennel club closed last night. The entry list for dogs out- side of the state will be kept open long enough to allow sufficient time for entries to reach St. Paul which were mailed in New York and the East yesterday. Nearly 205 St. Paul and Minneapolis dogs of noble ancestry comprised the list of local entries ciosed last night. It is expected that nearly 250 more will be entered from distant points during the next few days. Preparations for the big show are fast being completed. Market hall will assume a festive appearance under the hands of the decorators, who are em- bellishing the interior of the building with flags and bunting. The exceptionally favorable circum- stances under which the exhibition is given points to a most successful show. A neat sum will undoubtedly be realiz- ed, which will be given to the Humane society. Over $1,800 In cash prizes has been hung up, while the merchandise prizes add materially to the premium list. Be- sides the crack kennels from the East, some of the finest dogs in the North- west, which are owned In St. Paul, will be shown.

PAUL GLOBE WEDNESDAY MARCII 1&~189&,._ with the newly ad.niltted Omaha aggre- gation at Omaha for four games, then going to Kansas City where the second series take place with the Cowboys. The third series opens the season on the home gronds April 29, when the , Kansas City players will assist in the inaugurating ceremonies, playing April 29 and 80, 'May 1 and 2. St. Paul draws two of the holiday games, that scheduled for, the after- n<sbn of July 4 and the Labor day game, Sept. 8. This is considered a fair share of the "schedule plums." Regarding a telegraphic report ln yesterday's Globe to the effect that Roger Denzer had refused to sign a St. Paul contract tendered him for the coming season, Manager Comlskey said that Denzer had returned the contract unsigned and that so far as he was concerned this settled the lengthy twirler's chances of wearing a St. Paul uniform. Realizing that the local baseball pub- lic ls Interested in Denzer, Manager Comlskey says he made Denzer's re- lease to St. Paul one of the conditions of the lsbel transfer. Then he sent Denzer a contract, but the Balary con- sideration did not suit the once Chlca- goan. Having made Denzer what he claims wss an advantageous offer, which Roger saw fit to decline. Manage- Comlskey says he ls through with the country lad and will make no more overtures to him. There is only one way out of the matter Manager Comiskey says, and that ls for Roger to accept the contract presented to him, as not another scratch of a pen will he receive from the local management. Comlskey says he has five of the best pitch- ers In the league without Denzer, namely Prlcken, Cross. Mullane, McGill and Phyle. With Cross and any two of the others named Manager Comlskey says he has enough pitch- ing strength to cope with any club in the league. Cross' last year's record was ten games pitched and ten won, for the Apostles. '•Everything went off smoothly at the league meeting," said Mr. Comlskey, "and the prospects are bright for the most success- ful year throughout the circuit ln Western base ball history. We have eight good ball towns in the league, each represented by a strong team, and, with the league In first- class financial condition, we look for an ex- cellent season. "The admission of Omaha to take the place of Grand Rapids was a wise step. Oma- ha is an enthusiastic ball town, and will un- doubtedly generously support a strong play- ing club. "We raised Ban Johnson's salary as president, as was telegraphically stated, and it was done in appreciation of his invaluable services. He is the Napoleon of Western base ball, and the league cannot afford to lose him. "When the Omaha franchise was under consideration there was some likelihood that Anson might enter the Western league this year, but things went the other way." Charles A.

Winter Betting on the Tyro Big Eni-tern tin iiiliiiips. Winter books have been opened on the Brooklyn and Suburban handicaps. In the Brooklyn Ornament is made favorite at 10 to 1. Ben Brush and Tillo are equal second choices at 12 to 1 each. Ben Holladay and Dr. Catlett are quoted at 15 to 1 apiece, and -0 to 1 is offered against the chances of On Deck, Howard Mann, Don de Oro, Pre- vious, Handball and Traverser, respectively. Typhoon 11., Buddha, Ben Eclcr. Macy and Lou Bramble are all quoted at 25 to 1 each. Fleur de Lis appears to be somewhat out of line at 40 to 1, but the odds named above are "cinchy" enough to justify the latitude displayed in i«l_ atlng tl i^ fleet fil'y's chance. In the Suburban, Ornament again heads the quotation list at 10 to 1. Ben Brush comes next at 12 to 1. Ben Holladay, Tillo, Dr. Catlett and Havre are all classed in the 15 to 1 division. Sir Walter and Handball are the only two quoted at 20 to 1. On Deck, Howard Mann. Don de Oro, Typhoon IL. Fleischmann and Fleur de Lis form the 25 to 1 brigade, and it is write your own ticket against the horses on either ract which are not particularized above. Jim O'Leary, whose mother owned the cow which kicked the lamp that caused the fire In Chicago, is the nerviest and most success- ful resident bookmaker in the Windy City. O'Leary defied the law on the lines laid down In this city by Sam Stevens, and as a con- sequence has had to plead guilty in the Chi- cago criminal court to three charges of book- making. O'Leary's defi. cost him $3.1.4.55, the amount of the combined costs of court and fines, and. what is more to the po'.nt, he has had to pay the money. Tommy Burns is now at Memphis exercis- ing the Schorrs horses. Burns' record at the New Orleans meeting is a noteworthy one. In sixty-seven days he was first eighty-four times, second forty-five times and third twen- ty-eight times. "Burns' mounts" were play- ed by "dope" fiends and system-players alike. His phenomenal success burnt a big hole in the bank roll of several of the bookmakers operating at the Crescent City track. The announcement that the Welsh midget bicycle rider. Jimmy Michaels, is to enter tho horse riding ranks is pooh-poohed at by the knowingones. Race riding is not an acquired art; it is natural, and there is but one example of success where one entered the ranks late ln life. That lone ease was that of the late Frank Goodale. Jockeys who have been successful in the past began their apprenticeship early in life, that of about twelve years, and in osme cases were about horses from the day of their birth. Fred Taral, Tod Sloane. Charley Thome, Tommy Burns. Sam Doggett. Jesse Conley. Willie and "Skeets" Martin, of the present day riders, not to speak of those of the past, were of the kind that were associated with the thoroughbred since thy were in kilts. The report that Ornament has been sold seems to have been another one of John Consadine's pipe dreams. It has been given out several times lately that "John Consa- dine, for Mr. So and So," has purchased some first-class race horse. Each time there has been no truth In the statement. Mr. Consadine ls evidently Imposing on his friends as a means of gaining notoriety and estabishing a reputation as a first-class buy- er. All correspondents and turf writers in future should require Mr. Consadine to pro- duce his bill of sale. The dash of a mile and a quarter on the flat looked like a gift for Lobengula, and 2 to 5 was the best offered against him. He won easily from Lakeview Palace. Hugh Penny landed his third successive purse for F. W. Doss by winning the six and a half furlong selling affair ln easy fashion from Brighton In track record time for the distance. The local ring and out-of-town pool rooms narrowly escaped a scorching in the last race. Benson & Arthur's King Pon, whose races here caused the books to lay 50 to 1 against him. was backed down to 15. and lost only through bad riding, L W beating him a neck. Laura May, the favor- ite, finishd absolutely last. Fred Foster has bought from Elmer Slaughter the crack three-year-old filly Eva Rice, and a two- year-old colt by Julien. They arrived from St. Louis today. Secretary Charley Price and Mr. Hiram Scoggan left for Pass Chris- tian today for a couple of weeks' fishing. Mr. Scoggan will have a string of two-year- olds, nine In number, at Newport. Smiley Smllen. SEATTLE. Wash., March I.—J. R.

LONDON, March I.—Sir Ellis Ash- mead Bartlett having brought up the Chinese question and the advance uf Russia in the house today, Mr. Cur- s-.on, after some debate, said that Brit- ish interests in China were "paramount, but not exclusive." The British nation, he continued, would not be justified in regarding le- gitimate competitors with Jealousy, but ought rather to "use all efforts to keep In an age of competition what was won hi an age of monopoly." They could foresee that China would be confront- ed by greater dangers in the future than she had been in the past. Great Britain's policy was to prevent the dis- ruption and to oppose the alienation of Chinese territory, and it was not likely that Great Britain would regard with satisfaction the attempts of others in the direction of such disruption and alienation. PEKIN, March I.—The Anglo-Ger- man loan contracts were signed yester- day. The interest was fixed at 4 1 / _..per cent, redeemable In forty-five years. The contract price is 83 cents.

LONDON, March I.—Truth today, as a se- quel to ihe request made that Its editor take steps to expose an alleged scandal in re- gard to the sale of the American cemetery at Jerusalem by the American Presbyterian board of foreign missions, says: The American missionaries and the consul were represented, the bodies were reverently exhumed and were removed. But the action of Lord Salisbury In having the pit ln the English cemetery, in which they were re- buried, opened in order to recover the re- mains of an English officer led to the ghast- ly discovery that all the bodies had been broken up and packed in small wooden boxes, so that neither the body of the officer nor any other body could be Identified.

BALL FIELD ROWDYISM

DRASTIC MICASIRES ADOPTED BY

RATIONAL LEAGUE MAGNATES

In Extreme Canes n Penalty of Ex-

pulsion for Life Provided by theCode Tribunal of Three to

tarry Out the Xew Hales of theLeugue.

ST. LOUIS, Mo., March I.—The baseball magnates of the National leaguewere tired out with their late session oflast night, and it was long after 10o'clock, the hour set for convening,when they came together. Very littlebusiness was transacted at the morn-ing Besslon. It pertained to telegraphiir.d railroad matters. The telegraphquestion was settled by allowing eachclub to do business with which evertelegraph company it chooses. Therailroad committee, not having closedarrangements with the companies forrates, was continued in office indefi-nitely.

At the afternoon session the doorswere thrown open to newspaper men,

who were given an opportunity to lis-ten to the report of the committee, ap-pointed last year, to devise means ford> bag away with rowdyism on the ballfit Id. John T. Brush, chairman of thecommittee, presented the report, whichembodied communications from baseball magnates, umpires, members ofthe press and others interested in thenational game. These communicationsshowed the necessity of adopting somemeasure to do away with the evil. Allof the club representatives presentBpofte in favor of suc-h action, but dif-fered as to the details.

On motion of President James A.Hart, of Chicago, the press representa-tive s present were asked to expresstheir opinion on this subject. Theywere unanimously In favor of some ac-tion looking toward the doing away ofrowdyism and vulgarity.

As the unanimous views of the com-mittee. Chairman Brush submitted ameasure for the suppression of ob-scene, indecent and vulgar languageupon a ball field by players engagedin playing a game of ball during thechampionship season. Avote was tak-en on the measure, and it was adopt-ed unanimously.

Mr. Robison, of Cleveland, explainedthat whatever opposition he hadShown to such legislation had been forthe purpose of bringing out an expres-sion of opinion. In the absence ofPresident Freedman, of New York, hisVote was cast by A.H. Soden, of Bos-ton.

Stringent Rolen.In pursuance of this measure of re-

form and to carry Into effect its intent,twenty-three regulations of somelength are appended, in substance asfollows:

The measure provides that the regula-tions shall be explained to and read by allplayers and employes in the league, who6__all then bo obliged t<s sign them tor thepurpose of showing this legislation had beenbrought to their attention.It is provided that it shall be competent

for any person or persons, whether play-ers, manager, umpire, club official of anyclub, or spectator, to submit informationand testimony in writing under oath con-cerning obscene.

All charges of offense under this meas-ure shall be submitted to the president ofthe league under oath within forty-eighthours of Its alleged occurrence, the man-ager shall immediately furnish a copy ottiie same to the accused for his defensewith the written notice of suspension, ifany.

Five days, after the receipt thereof by theaccused, shall be allowed the one chargedwith the offetise, for transmitting to thepresident of the league, under oath, of thedefense, and the case when thus preparedBhall be submitted by the prsident to atribunal of three judges selected by thisleague to be called the "board of disci-pline," who shall have absolute authorityto acquit or convict upon the evidence sub-mitted according to the rules adopted forits government and from which there shallbe no appeal except to the board of direc-tors of the league.

When a case Is thus submitted to saidboard, the president of the tribunal shallcarefully consider it from the evidencesubmitted, taking into account the natureund gravity of the offense, Its Importanceas affecting the welfare of the nationalgame, the provocation for Its commissionand siK>f other circumstances as may besubmitted that are entitled to be consid-ered, and he shall report in writing hisopinion and finding In the premisies. and ifthe offense be proven he shall affix the pen-alty that In his judgment should be im-posed, and forward the same, together withhis opinion and conclusions and all the pa-pers, to his associate nearest the territory,who shall attach his opinion and conclu-sions and judgment, and forward the sameto the remaining member of the tribunal,who shall forward his opinion, conclusionand finding and all the papers in the caseto the president of the tribunal, and he Inturn shall return the papers and opinions,conclusions and findings to the president oftho league, who shall carry into effect thejudgment of said board or a majoritythereof by suspending the player from hisclub for the period determined by the trib-unal or a majority, or acquit him, as thecase may be.

In Cn.se of DiviHion.When the members of the tribunal or a

majority thereof do not agree upon ajudgment, the president of the league shallselect some one of the opinions as the oneto be followed, (provided lt be not the ex-treme penalty), and that shall be consid-ered the judgment and be enforced.

The penalties for using obsecene, Inde-cent or vulgar language within the mean-ing and intent of this measure are entirelywithin the discretion of the tribunal, andmay be suspension for days, for months,for the unexpired season, for a year, or forlife, according to the conditions, circum-stances and nature of the offense, lt beingthe sentiment of the league that createsthis law that unwarranted, unprovoked andbrutal use of vulgarity to a spectator orwithin the presence of spectators and with-in the hearing of ladies, should debar theoffender for ever from service with hisclub or any other club member of thisleague or subject to its jurisdiction.

The extreme penalty imposed in thismeasure, viz., "life expulsion," shall re-quite the unanimonus approval of the threemembers of the tribunal, and provided also,before imposing such a penalty, the ac-cused shall be notified that he can defend inperson and by counsel, if he elects, in•which event the president of the tribunalshall call a meeting of said board at tomecity to be selected by him. most convenientto the members and the accused.

That justice may be done and no wrongcommute it shall be competent for eitherparties to a case submitted to the tribunalto .show, under oath, the character andstanding of those who make the chargesand give evidence, and before the "life ex-pulsion" can be imposed the accused may,Ifhe elects, have the opportunity of cross-examining the witnesses against him bydepositions.There shall be no appeal from a decisionby the tribunal, or a majority, for a re-hearing or a reopening of a case, except

COMISKEY FEELS WELL

THOSE TWENTY GAMES AT HOME, NEXT FALL 7.J "

,Ifthe Club Should Happen to Be

Behind That Will Help Them Ont—-No More Flirting: With Denter

—The Popular Manager Feci* HeCan Do Without Him.

"How can we lose?" willagain be the•slogan of the St. Paul base ball teamfor the season of 1898, and ManagerComlskey, who returned yesterday fromthe recent meeting of the Westernleague ln Kansas City, enthusiasticallydeclares that from the present pros-pects there Is absolutely no solution forthe above proposition.InManager Comlskey's own language,

"Ifwe can't win the pennant this yearwe never can," and the qualification ofthe assertion Is at once eliminated bythe confidently expressed prophecy ofthe manager that victory's streamerswill float proudly from the flag pole atLexington park at the end of the sea-son.

The prediction, Manager „Comiskeysays, ls based upon more reliable andsubstantial omens than the flight ofbirds.

A favorable factor toward satisfyingSaintly City's pennant ambitions ls thearrangement of the schedule of gamesadopted at Kansas City. The localteam closes the season with a series oftwenty games on the home grounds,and it is conservatively figured thata bowling alley complement of woodenIndians could pull themselves out ofa deep pit under those circumstances,not to mention the possibilities of agrand stand finish on the part ofComiskey's colts, should they reachhome for the final struggle severalnotches below the top.

Manager Comiskey hasn't taken anyone into his confidence as to how theend desired concerning the schedulewas accomplished, but he lookshappy and admits, with a smile, that h.>has at last gotten the kind of a sched-ule he has been fighting for in theleague meetings for several years.

The Western league season, as wasstated with the publication of thecomplete schedule in the Globe theday after Its adoption at Kansas City,opens April21. St. Paul plays its firstgames away from home, crossing bats

Regarding a telegraphic report lnyesterday's Globe to the effect thatRoger Denzer had refused to sign aSt. Paul contract tendered him for thecoming season, Manager Comlskey saidthat Denzer had returned the contractunsigned and that so far as he wasconcerned this settled the lengthytwirler's chances of wearing a St. Pauluniform.

Realizing that the local baseball pub-lic ls Interested in Denzer, ManagerComlskey says he made Denzer's re-lease to St. Paul one of the conditionsof the lsbel transfer. Then he sentDenzer a contract, but the Balary con-sideration did not suit the once Chlca-goan.

Having made Denzer what he claims wssan advantageous offer, which Roger saw fitto decline. Manage- Comlskey says he lsthrough with the country lad and willmakeno more overtures to him. There is only oneway out of the matter Manager Comiskeysays, and that ls for Roger to accept thecontract presented to him, as not anotherscratch of a pen will he receive from thelocal management.

Comlskey says he has five of the best pitch-ers In the league without Denzer, namelyPrlcken, Cross. Mullane, McGill and Phyle.With Cross and any two of the others namedManager Comlskey says he has enough pitch-ing strength to cope with any club in theleague. Cross' last year's record was tengames pitched and ten won, for the Apostles.

'•Everything went off smoothly at theleague meeting," said Mr. Comlskey, "andthe prospects are bright for the most success-ful year throughout the circuit ln Westernbase ball history. We have eight good balltowns in the league, each represented by astrong team, and, with the league In first-class financial condition, we look for an ex-cellent season.

"The admission of Omaha to take theplace of Grand Rapids was a wise step. Oma-ha is an enthusiastic ball town, and will un-doubtedly generously support a strong play-ing club.

"We raised Ban Johnson's salary aspresident, as was telegraphically stated, andit was done in appreciation of his invaluableservices. He is the Napoleon of Westernbase ball, and the league cannot afford tolose him.

"When the Omaha franchise was underconsideration there was some likelihood thatAnson might enter the Western league thisyear, but things went the other way."

INTEREST TO TIRFITES.

Winter Betting on the Tyro Big

Eni-tern tiniiiliiiips.

Winter books have been opened on theBrooklyn and Suburban handicaps. In theBrooklyn Ornament is made favorite at 10to 1. Ben Brush and Tillo are equal secondchoices at 12 to 1 each. Ben Holladay andDr. Catlett are quoted at 15 to 1 apiece,and -0 to 1 is offered against the chances ofOn Deck, Howard Mann, Don de Oro, Pre-vious, Handball and Traverser, respectively.Typhoon 11., Buddha, Ben Eclcr. Macy andLou Bramble are all quoted at 25 to 1 each.Fleur de Lis appears to be somewhat outof line at 40 to 1, but the odds named aboveare "cinchy" enough to justify the latitudedisplayed in i«l_ atlng tli^ fleet fil'y's chance.

In the Suburban, Ornament again headsthe quotation list at 10 to 1. Ben Brushcomes next at 12 to 1. Ben Holladay, Tillo,Dr. Catlett and Havre are all classed in the15 to 1 division. Sir Walter and Handballare the only two quoted at 20 to 1. OnDeck, Howard Mann. Don de Oro, TyphoonIL. Fleischmann and Fleur de Lis formthe 25 to 1brigade, and it is write your ownticket against the horses on either ractwhich are not particularized above.

Jim O'Leary, whose mother owned the cowwhich kicked the lamp that caused the fireIn Chicago, is the nerviest and most success-ful resident bookmaker in the Windy City.O'Leary defied the law on the lines laid downIn this city by Sam Stevens, and as a con-sequence has had to plead guilty in the Chi-cago criminal court to three charges of book-making. O'Leary's defi. cost him $3.1.4.55,the amount of the combined costs of courtand fines, and. what is more to the po'.nt, hehas had to pay the money.

Tommy Burns is now at Memphis exercis-ing the Schorrs horses. Burns' record at theNew Orleans meeting is a noteworthy one.In sixty-seven days he was first eighty-fourtimes, second forty-five times and third twen-ty-eight times. "Burns' mounts" were play-ed by "dope" fiends and system-players alike.His phenomenal success burnt a big hole inthe bank roll of several of the bookmakersoperating at the Crescent City track.

The announcement that the Welsh midgetbicycle rider. Jimmy Michaels, is to entertho horse riding ranks is pooh-poohed at bythe knowingones. Race riding is not anacquired art; it is natural, and there is butone example of success where one enteredthe ranks late ln life. That lone ease wasthat of the late Frank Goodale. Jockeys whohave been successful in the past began theirapprenticeship early in life, that of abouttwelve years, and in osme cases were abouthorses from the day of their birth. FredTaral, Tod Sloane. Charley Thome, TommyBurns. Sam Doggett. Jesse Conley. Willieand "Skeets" Martin, of the present dayriders, not to speak of those of the past,were of the kind that were associated withthe thoroughbred since thy were in kilts.

The report that Ornament has been soldseems to have been another one of JohnConsadine's pipe dreams. It has been givenout several times lately that "John Consa-dine, for Mr. So and So," has purchasedsome first-class race horse. Each time therehas been no truth In the statement. Mr.Consadine ls evidently Imposing on hisfriends as a means of gaining notoriety andestabishing a reputation as a first-class buy-er. All correspondents and turf writers infuture should require Mr. Consadine to pro-duce his bill of sale.

The dash of a mile and a quarter on theflat looked like a gift for Lobengula, and2 to 5 was the best offered against him.He won easily from Lakeview Palace. HughPenny landed his third successive pursefor F. W. Doss by winning the six and ahalf furlong selling affair ln easy fashionfrom Brighton In track record time for thedistance. The local ring and out-of-townpool rooms narrowly escaped a scorching inthe last race. Benson & Arthur's King Pon,whose races here caused the books to lay50 to 1 against him. was backed down to 15.and lost only through bad riding, L Wbeating him a neck. Laura May, the favor-ite, finishd absolutely last. Fred Foster hasbought from Elmer Slaughter the crackthree-year-old filly Eva Rice, and a two-year-old colt by Julien. They arrived fromSt. Louis today. Secretary Charley Priceand Mr. Hiram Scoggan left for Pass Chris-tian today for a couple of weeks' fishing.Mr. Scoggan willhave a string of two-year-olds, nine In number, at Newport.

LONDON, March I.—Sir Ellis Ash-mead Bartlett having brought up theChinese question and the advance ufRussia in the house today, Mr. Cur-s-.on, after some debate, said that Brit-ish interests inChina were "paramount,but not exclusive."

The British nation, he continued,would not be justified in regarding le-gitimate competitors with Jealousy, butought rather to "use all efforts to keepIn an age of competition what was wonhi an age of monopoly." They couldforesee that China would be confront-ed by greater dangers in the futurethan she had been in the past. GreatBritain's policy was to prevent the dis-ruption and to oppose the alienationof Chinese territory, and it was notlikely that Great Britain would regardwith satisfaction the attempts of othersin the direction of such disruption andalienation.

DISGRACEFUL AFFAIH.

Truth's Decision as to the Saleof the Jerusalem Cemetery.

LONDON, March I.—Truth today, as a se-quel to ihe request made that Its editor takesteps to expose an alleged scandal in re-gard to the sale of the American cemeteryat Jerusalem by the American Presbyterianboard of foreign missions, says:

The American missionaries and the consulwere represented, the bodies were reverentlyexhumed and were removed. But the actionof Lord Salisbury In having the pit ln theEnglish cemetery, in which they were re-buried, opened in order to recover the re-mains of an English officer led to the ghast-ly discovery that all the bodies had beenbroken up and packed in small wooden boxes,so that neither the body of the officer norany other body could be Identified.

Both the sale of the cemetery and the re-moval of the corpses appear to have beencarried out In an extremely disgraceful man-ner.
