In conclusion, the public should bear
In mind this one significant fact: THE
STAR does not rely upon empty boasts
to impress the public. ITS CIRCULA-
TION Is SWORN TO; its PRESS
ROOM is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC;
and its BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED
by any one having an interest in their
examination. These are CRUCIAL
TESTS, which few papers invite, and
which those that boast most are least
able to stand.

THE BASE BALL MIDDLE.
MIR. Hewett and the Association Mag
nates-New York Injunction Case.

An effort was made last week by delega-
ton of American association magnaies, con-
sisting of Sharsig and Whitaker of Philadel-
phia and Powers of Rochester, to obtain
promises of sufficient support from local base
ball enthusiasts to warrant the organization
here of an association team for the season OF
1890. They came and went without the knowl-
edge Of Mr.. Hewett. who, they asserted, was
only bluffing when he said he was going to
have league club here next year. They met
with some encouragement and they returned
satisfied that the Senators would be in the as
ISOLATION ranks next season.
MR.. HEwETT Is VERY INDIGNANT
over this visit, which, he claims, is a violation
of the national agreement, and he reiterates,
In the strongest manner, his announcement
that he will be in the league. He may call the
attention of the league directors to the lack OF
courtesy on the part of the association. He is
not making any open movement just at present
looking to the rehabilitation of the local club,
preferring to wait until decision is reached
IN New York in the injunction case. In fact
the outcome of this move will be
THE SIGNAL FOR SEVERAL IMPORTANT CHANGES
in personnel in the ranks of the league and
brotherhood. Ifit go against the players, as is
the general opinion, there will be stampede OF
men Ito get out of the wet" as a gentleman
expressed it the other day. The Baltimore
people will then be able to act in consumma-
ton of the deal for the transfer OF part of her
team to Washington, for the granting of the
injunction will mean such an Endorsement OF
the legality of the reserve clause in the con-
tracts that nobody will fear to enter upon any
new agreements. A dispatch from Philadel-
phia announces that the stockholders of the
Philadelphia Players League club held meet
ing at john NJ. Nanderslice' - law office yester-
day and decided to bring suits for damages
against Thompson and Myers, the two desert
ers, and make Messrs. Reach, Rogers and

Goodwin Smith on LEGISLATION bv Wome,

From the January Forum.
That the tendency of state governed by
women would be to arbitrary and sentimental
legislation can hardly be doubted. Prohibi-
tionism in its most extreme form would almost
certainly carry the day. Possibly legislation
against tobacco might follow. Would men
obey, knowing that the law had no force behind
ltI Ii they did not what but disregard of law
and consequent confusion would ensue?

What Car Passengers Would Like.

To the Editor of The EVENING STAR:
The Inconvenience OF many, especially OF
ladies, makes the want of attention to certain
small matters a subject of moment in which
your powerful aid is requested. The Metro
politsn railway attempts to inform its patrons
as to the destination of its cars by painting the
dashboards of the Georgetown cars green, the
boundary cars orange. The green cars have
red lights, the orange cars have green lights
The public would be much convenienced if the
green cars which run to Georgetown should
carry green lights and the boundary cars the
other-any other. color. The present red light
would not be Objectionable. If, too the
body Of the boundary cars could be painted a
different color or if the boundary car should
carry a swinging sign on the body OF the car
the public would be saved much Inconvenience
