BASE BALL BRIEFS.

"McPhee mas more money saved than
any man in the Cincinnati team" said one
local player. "He has 81, 900 or 1000
ready cash and $1,000 or $4,000 invested
in mortgages. Long John Reilly is fairly
well heeled and is next to McPhee. 1t is
supposed that John has saved 1000 or
SIS, 600. Mullane has been a good saver,
but he has lost considerable in his invest
ments. Tony must have saved So, 600 or
Sc, 600, bat the Fidelity Bank failure and
his Vine street saloon put crimp IN his
pile.
The report has come from Philadelphia
that Pitcher FOrman has decided to live up
to his contract with the Brotherhood, and
will play with the Players League club OF
Philadelphia next season. The paper he
signed for Manager Barnie was not an
agreement or contract, but simply mem
orandum, and does not bind him tc the
Baltimore club.
Umpire John Kelly has become q sport
ing fixture in the Metropolis. Almost
every week he is asked to be stakeholder in
some important event, or is wanted to
referee a boxing contest. "Kels" reputa-
ton for honesty has done great deal for
him, and be deserves it all.
Mrs. George Gore spent several days in
Philadelphia last week, and met with a
royal reception. The people over there
appeared to be heartily in sympathy with
the Brotherhood, and did honor to the
wife of the man who was first to sign a
contract with them.
The statements made by some of the
League organs that Ewing and Kelly have
not signed Brotherhood contracts Is con-
sidered ridiculous when it is a well-knOwn
fact that both men are working hard for
that organization.
George Tebeau has received letter from
his brother Oliver, who is playing with
the st. Louis Browns, in which he states
that he saw COmiskey sign Brotherhood
contract. - Commercial Gazette

PRIZE RING NOTES.

The latest offer for fight between John
L. Sullivan and Peter jackson is a purse OF
$40, 900, and Billy Madden ia the pros
pective donor. He says the amount has
been subscribed by half deem moneyed
men, who do not care 10 have their names
mentioned in the matter. Madden says he
has battle ground in his mind that is
easier Of access and better adapted for the
purpose than either California or Missis-
sippi. If the men accept his proposition,
he says the money will be forthcoming
He has the signatures of the men who are
willing 10 make up the purse, and he has
notified Jackson OF the offer. If the latter
accepts he will advise Sulivan's manager,
and will place the money in the hands Of
any responsible man who may be selected
as referee.

The fret thing Robert Bonner did with
Ausel, after paying $40 900 for him, was
TO take his horse 10 blacksmith's shop

ing was completed Marvin logged him, and
when he pulled up he remarked that "he
put his foot down much BETTER" and the
enlargement of the inside Of the ankle had
nearly disappeared, or was nearly as small
as the outside. An experienced hoIseman,

the turf, for several years, at least, and
his trip to Europe seemed to strengthen
the impression. he appears to have
changed his mind, if he did intend retir-
ing, for Green Morris has received cable
gram from him inquiring if $1,000 would
be an inducement for him to part with
Taragon, bought by him at the Chester
brook sale. 1t is thought that Mr.. Morris
will accept Mr.. Cassstt's terms and ship
Tarsgon to England within few weeks.

until about July 5, and the race will not
take place during the last week of the
meeting.

WAR ON THE DIAMOND
TIKI PROGRESS OF TIKI GREAT BASE BALI
CONTEST.
A Few InrOads Made by the League in the Brother
hoods Ranks-Ths Sculhng Champion
ship-Running Events and
Puglistc News.

The week has seen two more members
of the Base Ball Brotherhood break their
solemn vows to their comrades and surren-
der to the brides and Establishments Of the
League. Miller and Beckley of the Pitts
burg club we're tbs men. Both were bound
by solemn promises az members of the
Brotherhood, but the big money offered
them by the League was too much to re-
fuse. Miller, it is said, will receive 81, 900
the coming year, besides a big bonus,
while Beckley will get nearly the same.
The loss Of Clarkson and CAMEL will be
a severe blow TO the Brotherhood club.
Both men are among the stars, but neither
was under obligation to play with the
Brotherhood, and no reflection is cast upon
their integrity. I looks like Clarkson
played a shrewd game to fill his own peck
ct He hung on the fence until the last
moment and at the proper time, toppled
into the League camp, not, however, until
he had drawn promise of the highest sal
airy evea paid ball player out of the Bos-
ton magnates.
-
The only effect which the recent actions
of the League can have will be to weaken
the public confidence in the honesty of base
ball. Club owners, who are not above
bribing men TO break their solemn prOmi-
ses, will not be above selling games, and
nlavara who can he bribed can not be eX-
pected to play honest ball.
On the other hand. Men who refuse to
De tempted, men who show they have re-
spect for their oaths and their honor, men
who have no price, remain with the new
organization. Gamblers know that it
would be folly to approach them with Of
fers and bribery, because they have been
tested by all artful means known to men,
and have stood out with untsrnished hon
or. In which organization will the people
have the most confidence? The coming
season will answer.
-
The death Of Ssarle, the champion oars-
man has raised an important question as
to who falls heir to the honor. The result
is likely to be a series of contests to deter
mine it. Teemer, OConnOr and Gaudaur,
are the the three men, from whom the
next champion will probably come.
O'Connor has beaten Teemer, and was
beaten by Searle under unfsvOTable condi-
tions. The chances seem decidedly IN his
favor.
