How Kiss Caused the Arrest of Crook
in Chicago.
Especial Telegram to the Globe

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-Ore night last week a
burglary was committed at the residence of Mr..
Leonard, corner Of Emerald avenue and Thirty
filth street, and the burglar stole one thing
which police force in the world could re-
cover. 1t was nothing less than a kiss, and tie
sweet morsel came near costing the thief his
liberty then and there. He entered the house
by forcing open rear window aad at once began
promenade through the apartments in search OF
Naiuables. In the bedroom where Dir. Leonard
ana his wife were sleeping, he got gold watch,
one cham and some money without disturbing
the sleepers. Then he went to the apartment
occupied by the daughter of Mr.. Leonard,
pretts blue eyed maiden of shout seventeen
Here ne obtained some valuable articles of jew
elry. As he was about TO leave the room with
his plunder, however, he turned to look
at the face of the fair sleeper in the
light OF the low gas JET the sight of the red lips
and rosy cheeks buried in the pillow sbUve the
delicate lace Of the nj Sht robe was too tempting
to resist He stole softly up to the bed and
planted strong Bridgeport kiss on the unsus-
pectlng but inviting mouth, and then rushed
from the rooR. The girl awoke with a start
and uttered south side scream that aroused the
other people IN the house, but the burglar es-
capped through the window Just In time TO
avoid shot from Mr. Leonard's pistol. The
stolen kiss left behind it faint oder of alcohol,
Nnlcn hiss Leonard says was quite apparent to
her when she first awoks. Several other bur
glaries were committed the same night, presun-
ably by the same man, and the police have been
looking for him ever since. Yesterday morning

The Ball League.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-There was a
meeting of the national base ball league
this morning. The session was spent in
discussing the amending of the playing
rules. Some charges were made, the prin-
cipsI enc being striking out cule forty
three relating TO foul bslks. Hereafter
no restriction will be placed under the
rules on the pitcher on delivery of balls.
It considered rule thirty -four, which de-
clared that in delivering the ball the pitch
er should not raise his hand higher than
his shoulder. L has been practically a
dead letter for years, SO it was deemed
advisable to strike it out altogether. The
championship season was extended to the
18th of October and the number Of cham
pionship games changed from fourteen to
sixteen The rules were also changed to
provide for the selection, before the 1st OF
May, By the secretary, staff OF -four
league umpires, who are to be subject to
removal only By the secretary and for
cause.
At the afternoon session A. G.. Mills was r.
elected president and A. G. Spaiding, Chicago,

delphia, and J. Edward Allen, Providence, di
rectors. a. g. Spalding, a. q. Soden and

Especial Telegram to the Globe.l
New YORK, Nov. 22.-Mr. Henry Watterson
is in town. a reporter found him at the s..
James yesterday afternson, surrounded by
callers and personal frieud=, and asked his views
on various questions of personal and political
interest:
''Whst about Mcdonald and the presidency,
Mr.. WattersonYr
WELL" replied Mr.. Wstterson, ''the time
Is fast approaching when we must
select our nominees. II there is Democrat
who is an issue in himself he should be named
for president. IL there is not, then the next
best man is he who has the clearest public
and private record, the largest experience of
public men and measures and the most popular
characteristics. If Mr.. Tilden's consent to the
nomination could be obtained he would be com
mandingly available. This consent Mr.. TiIden
viii never give and so the party will have to
look elsewhere for nominee. In my judgement
Mr.. Mcdonald comes nearer in answering the
description of the kind of man we need than
any other Democrat of my acquaintance.''
How about the speakership:''
Personally have only good viii for Mr..
Randall, but personally am the champion of
no man. Nor am personally hostile to any
man. If personal considerations were to
decide the case, Mr. Randall would suit me as
well as another. They viii not and should not.
The Democratic party has made a tariff record
which it cannot escape. The question is, shall
the party run away, pursued by the Republicans.
or shall IT stand its ground unfud its feg and
tight for Its convictions. The election of Mr.
Randall viii be the complete stultlfcation of all
Democratic traditions IN policy upon a living
issue, and cost every representative west or
south who votes for him his political future.''
''What about Mr. Carlisle?''
Mr.. Carlisle is an able and honest nan and a
better presiding officer IN every respect than Mr..
Randall.''
What are his chances OF election, do you
thinks''

cordial reception. Beecher said as

me- Every body can do what he can to further
the ends OF government. This he can only do
by worklng with one of the great political mar
ties. srn also a clergyman but only by cour-
tesy. i am also citizen and | am here to uar-

say that he believed the protective system vss
grinding oppression upon the poor men of the
country. If 1t was right to tax clothes and
books, and pictures ard iron, II could not be
wrong to tax ministers, and vet he did not in
