STEARNS' SENTIMENTS.
Has Something to Say Regard
ing the Buffalo Deal.

DETROIT, Mich, Dec. 19.-Ex-Presi-
dent Stearns, of the Detroit Base Ball
club. said to-day: - think that not
withstanding the purchase by Rowe
and White of the controlling interest in
the Buffalo club, both men will play in
the clubs to which they were assigned.
This is only my opinion, but do know
that neither will play in the Buffalo
team unless they want TO render them
selves and the club liable to expulsion.
The International league is one of the
associations that made the national
agreement. If Rowe and White insist
on playing in the Buffalos it will be a
violation of this agreement. The play
erS will be blacklisted, and any team
that plays against the Buffalos will lay
itself liable to like penalty. They can
own the club and manage it jointly, but
they cannot play until they have the
consent of the representatives of the
stockholders of the old Detroit club"

Chairman Cooley Puts Railway
Managers Through Their Fa-
cings.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The inter
state commerce commission resumed
to-day its inquiry into the rates and
claSSiiicatiOns of the Southern Railway
and Steamship association. NJ. IL.
Smith, vice president of the Louisville
Il Nashville read, explained the methods
in use by his company in making
through, joint and competing rates. He
said that his road accepts less rate for
4 longer than for shorter distance.
and thereby violates the letter of the
act 10 regulate commerce. but he urged
in Justification the competition of water
lines.
While his road had thus violated the
letter of the law, as did other roads hay-
ing water competition, he regarded ii as
a purely technical violation and III no
sense a violation of its spirit. His road
of necessity used several claSSifcations,
but it had done much and was now doing
much to secure uniformity in the matter
of claSsifcatiOnS. In answer to queS-
ton by Chairman Cooley Mr. Smith said
that his road had not strictly complied
with the law requiring the posting of
rates in its several offices because ii was
we'll nigh impossible to do so. That
feature he regarded as dead letter be-
cause it required something utterly i'm
possible. Their rates, he said, changed
almost daily. These changes were made
necessary by the changes in water rates
which his company were obliged to meet
He had, however, certain rate tables
posted but they were not always, or
even often correct. They sometimes
showed a rate higher than the actual
rate and then he thought it not only I'M
practicable but even undesirable to
keep rate tables posted. The shippers
did not need them, and they were rarely
consulted except for criticism. G. {.
Gault. of Cincinnati. general manager
of the Queen Il Crescent route, eX-
planned what has been done by his syS-
TEN to bring its rates into conformity
with the requirements of the interstate
law. He said that the roads of his syS-
TEN comply strictly with the law, ey-
cept as to points where there is water
competition. These exceptions are au
thorized by the commission. lie said
that the retail merchants were gener-
ally well satisfied with the operation of

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Dec. 19.-At the
annual meeting of the stockholders of
the New York. New Haven & Hartford
railroad to-day the old board of directors
was reelected. In response to request
that the cause of the petition for an in
crease of capital stock be given and the
purpose of the directorate if sucu in
crease were allowed. President
Clark made long address. He
stated that the increase was for
the purpose and for such an amount
as would enable the road to provide for
its bonded and floating indebtedness,
and to make permanent additions and
improvements TO its property, and to
provide for the purchase of additional
rolling stock which may be made nee
eSSary by increasing business. If it
were necessary to set limit TO the
amount, S50,000.000 would not be eX-
cessive. The stockholders unanimously
commended the purpose of the direct
orS, and hoped the general assembly
would grant such legislation as would
favor the increase of capital stock.

|: SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 19.-The I'M
certainty which has surrounded the pro-
posed fight between feather-weight
Tommy Warren and Ike Weir, the
Belfast Spider" for several days past
appears to have been ended. AS indi-
Gated by the interview of the GLOBES
Los Angeles correspondent with War
rem, published yesterday, the doughty
Thomas had no intention of quitting the
match and was perfectly willing to meet
the Spider" All doubt about the side
stakes was removed last night by the
following telegram from Warren to
President Fulda, of the California Attn
letic club:
Il am ready at any time to make the
match with Weir for $500 side.
Hailnan was not my hacker, but was
handling the money for other parties.
If Weir makes deposit with RESPONSE
bic parties. and | know that he means
business, l will Immediately cover the
money"
President Fulda will telegraph Weir
to come on. The club has nothing to do
with the side stake, and as both men
have Signified their willingness to fight
for the purse alone, if necessary. there
can now be but little doubt but what
the match will come off without any
further trouble.
