NEw YoRE, Dec, 1.-THE arbitration
committee Of the National Base Ball
League and the American Baso Ball asso,
ciation continued their "star chamber"
session to-day at the Filth Avenue Hotel.
They are considering among other things
tho application Of the International
League for membership. Tho league
wishes to get the benefit Of the "reservs
lsw" Of the committee, but Chairman
Byrno says 1t is not likely that the appli-
cation will be granted Rs, in that case they
would be compelled to admit all the other
dozen or more email leagues and this
would deprive the National League and
American association OF any good talent
which might b9 developed In the smaller
leagues.
The Arbitration Committee sat long
upon the case Of Burns, the Newark
people maintaining that tho committee
hand no jurisdiction oyer the matter and
1t was finally referred to lawyers and
Phelps, OF Louisville, and Rogers, Of
Philadelphia, two Of the committee to
decide as to whether tho Arbitration
Committee had power in tho premises.
When the case was thus temporarily die
posed Of, various amendments we're
made to tho National agreement which
will be submitted to the annual meeting Of
the American Association Tomorrow for
approval and to tho National League,
when 1t meets in the Spring. As amend.
cd, section provides that no club shall
enter into Negotiation with players until
October 20, under penalty Of q $500 fine,

Iadlcalo the Loss of Over Fifty Lives
-COuHIUtIng Statements : HaF-
rowing Scenes Witnessed,

New ORLEANS, La, Dec, 1.-THE
steamboat ], M, White, from Vickaburg,
Miss,, to New Orleans, La, was burned at
o'clock last night at Blue Stone Point,
thirty miles above Baton Rouge, She had
quite number ofpassengers aboard, 9, 100
bales Of cotton and 5000 sacks OF seeds.
Several lives were reported to have been
lost but Captain James Il, Muse, who was
In command, telsgraphs that only one
life, q porter OF the boat
is known to have been lost.
The boat and CargoeB are total loss. The
j. NJ, White was built in 1878 at cost Of
$225, 900 and was regarded by many as the
finest and the fastest boat ever run on the
Mississippi river,
The boat was owned by Cspt, John W,
Tolin, She was valued at 100000; the
cargo at $4,000. The Insurance. on the
boat is so, 900, and the cargo 10 doubtlessIy
fully covered,
NEw ORLEANS, Dec, l4.-When the
White took fire she was laying at Point
Coupse, takingon cotton, Thomas Barry,
second engineer Of the j. W. White, was
OH duty when the fire broke out in the
cotton Amidship. For 3 time he thought
he had got the fire under coutrol, but 1t
finally gained suCh headwsy that nothing
could be done with 1t, Barry stated that
the fire spread 30 rapidly thai the beat wRa
wrapped in flames in short time. lie
thinks there were ten OF twelve lives lost,
including 0 Colored fireman and two col.
ored ChAmbermside, one of them named
Martha Washington, The second cook,
Colored, was also lost. Barry also reports
tho loss Of Captain Bird Floyd and the
Of the Vandalia railway
with his wile and daughter, who were
passengers. Barry knows nothing as to
tho nlmber Of passengers that wore
aboard, but thinks there wers not very
many. He believes there we're some wo.
men and children on the deck. Evidences
are RcCumulatipg that there were many
lives Lost, IS the story Of Fireman Barry
would indicate. Some people place the
number at fifty,

NEW York, Dec, l4,-Huudredg Of peo,
ple tlocked to tho General Sessions Court
to-day, but were forced to remain outside
as no curiosity seekers were allowed to
enter, 1t was rumorel that District At
torney MARITIME had secured testimony
that Juror Jacob R9sanburg was q firm
friend OF keenan,, Shields and others, and
that he had sworn falsely in his examina,
ton as q tslesman. 1t was expected that
Mr.. MARITIME would draw q Juror, thus
causing q mistrlal, or that Rosenberg
would be arrested for perjury, When
court opened the counsel Tor the defense
and tho people alternately held long con.
sultations with the Recorder, taking half
an hour. Mr.. MARITIME was evidently ex.
cited, The Recorder looked glum. Mr.,
NewCombe looked very serious, but Nc.
Quade was as impaEsivo Ra usual, Finally
the Recorder nodded to the defense and
said: "Go on, Mr.. Grady"
John Lotus was the first witness. He
formerly lived In the house with and oc.
cupied by Mclaughlin in 1884; was q
member OF the Tammauy Hall General
Committee OF the Fifteenth district, Of
which Mclaughlin was chairman; he had
never seen any mseting1 ot Aldermen
there. On cross examination witness &C.
knowledged that twas his custom to 20
down street nearly every evening, and
that he knew nothing about McLaughlln's
buBiness.
W. J. Cawley, clerk in the Hudson
River Railroad oillCeP, teatlled that he
had a room In the back parlor Of MCLaugh.
Inns house In 1881; never saw any Alder.
man but FuIlgraE at the house, the latter
was there twice, some weeks apart; Nc
Laughlin was visited by committeeman in
parties OF four or five; these visits we're In
the evening. Witness teati6sd positively
that Mclaughlin did not 90 to Chicago,
but he did 10 into the county for the
summer in the latter part Of May, 1884.
Witness did not know all the Aldermen
OF 1854; had never seen MCQuade at Nc.
Laughlin's. The defense here rested their
CSsa.
Tho prosecution called Frederick O..
Crawford, a reporter for the World. He
testified that he was on the same paper In
and Delscy; was IN Montreal both IL
April and in juno. Crawford Is the re.
eortor who made fame by interviewing
Keenan, and Moloney for half an hour and
then asking them II Keenan, and Moloney
were In that city, lie testified that they
were at the Windsor Hotel.
The defense objected to the attempt to
prove that these men were out OF this
iurisdiCtion as incompetent against this
defendant. Oyerruled.
