He Makes Statement 10 Teemer About the
scullInE ChamDIOnship.
McKEEsPoRT December 19.-Charles h.
Thayer, of Boston. says in letter to John
Teemer to-day: knowing there win be con-
troversy for possession Of the worlds cham
pionship title, 1 have suggested the great re-
gatta for the leading oarsmen of the country,
to last for two OF three days. for the different
contests to settle the championship question
and receive financial benefits from the purse /
will offer, and desire to learn your views"
He is getting the views Of the oarsmen on
the matter. Teemer answered, as he did before,
that he thought it the proper thing, and that
he could be counted on to take part in it. He
is Of the opinion that it is probably better than
the sweepstake idea, and is of the opinion that
oarsmen should each put up an entrance fee
beside the S., 600 purse of Mr. Thayer, as it will
make it all the more interesting to the oars
nen. This he says, would be similar to the
great international regatta which was
rowed in London on the Thames in 1876
He is ready for it and hopes thar it will
be go. In the event of Mr.. Thayer's regatta
taking place he will postpone his Australian
visit Speaking of the remarks of James A.
st. John stating that Teemer has no right to
claim the championship" Teemer says:
Whats wrong with St John nowf Has he
come back to aquatics again after retiring pos
itively forever3 1 did not and do not claim the
championship title. I lay no claim to it;
neither did make remarks OF any KIND to be
construed that way; but mean to contest for
it am candidate for it, and am going to
compete with all professionals who row for it.
That's all the claim have to 1t 1 hope to row
O'Conner or any oarsman in America has any
claim to the title; if it belongs to anyone it is
to Stansbery. Searle defeated OiConnor,
Kemp and Stansbery, ana the latter gave him
the hardest of the three races. This is my
reason for saying that Stansbery can lay claim
to the title"

DOWN ON THE LEAGUE.
Some Strong Words Against Those who
Sign Two Contracts

Some Strong Words Against Those Who
Sign Two Contracts.
The Clipper, an out-and-out supporter of the
Brotherhood has the following to say about
the system of signing two contracts:
No one questions the integrity OF the National
League magnStes yet 1t hardly seems the proper
thing for some OF those gentlemen to stoop to
means that will in any way cast a reelection on
their transactions. The fact that some Of them
have been guilty of encouraging their old players
in dishonest dealing, by inducing them to sign q
second contract is not commendable. II the play
ers have been guilty Of any wrongdoinR, or have
violated any baseball law, then redress can be OBJ
hand, if the players in the right then those
who were weak enough to sign two contracts will
certainly be punished. No honorable person can
admire anyone who would be guilty OF double
dealing, such as some Of the players have done by
signing two contracts. If the players are in the
wrong. and the courts so decide 1t, then the old
clubs can obtain their players, or as many Of them
means but If they in the right then they have.
the prior claim to the services OF all these men who
have signed two contracts The excuses these men
have offered for their action OF signing two con-
tracts are very weak. II they had no faith IN the
league. why did not they wait until the matter
had been settled in the courts? If the decision had
been against the new league, then they could have
feeling that thev only did what they thought was
right. As 1t is, they will be despised by every
honest thinking person. Then, on the other hsnd,
should the case be settled in favor of the new
league, where will these men be and who viii
have any faith in them?

FOUR FOR BRADFORD.

Manager Mcbride Signs Jones, Hesss AR
mOur and Rowe at Good Salaries.
Manager Mcbride, of the Bradford club,
which is a member OF the New York and Penn.
sylvania League, was in the. city yesterday.
Last evening he signed Pitcher Jones and
Catcher Hess. Of last seasons Pittsburgs, and
Second Baseman Rowe and Right6elder Ar
mour, of the Homestead club. Jones and Hess
are to receive Sl50 each per month. Jones was
recently asked to sign Brotherhood contract
but declined.
During a conversation Manager Mcbride
said: Jones, of course, was reserved by the
Pittsburg club, but it was provisional, and the
Pittsburg officials have not asked him TO sign.
Our league is under the national agreement,
and of course we know that we are acting in
accordance with the rules. The prospects OF
our organization are very encouraging. II will
consist of eigdt clubs, VIZ: Olean, Jamestown,
Dunkirk and Elmlra in New York State, and
Meadville Erie, Bradford in Pennsylvania
The eighth club will probably be Troy or Syra-
cuse. We will have good team at Bradford,
as we are selecting the best men we can get In
our class"
The quartet of local players signed by Mana
ger Mcbride will. undoubtedly, give good ac-
count of themselves
