THOSE CONFLICTING RUMORS.

Interesting Features About the Beckley
and HaulOn Gases.
The conflicting reports Of the Brotherhood
and League supporters really become more be-
wildering every day. One exceedingly inter-
esting feature of the matter is that in many
cases Brotherhood officials state that certain
player has signed with them; the League off,
cials claim he has signed with them. and the
player denies that he has signed with ANYBODY.
It was definitely stated last evening in this CITY
that Beckley had signed with the Brotherhood
but President Nimick stated that he had
reason for not believing the statement,
Hanlon will likely bein the city to-day. when
he may be able to clear up the controversy re-
gardihg what the old club offered him to re-
main with it next year. Local club officials
claim emphatically that his own offer, SS. 500
was accepted. President johnson now states
that Hsnlon was offered LOCO more than the
Brotherhood can pay, and that apparently
means that Hanlon will get s. 800 next wear
However, it win be interesting to know now
that matters have gone so far, exactly what
Hanlon did want, or what he was offered.

,srpc,Ar rrLrenAx 10 THE DISPATCH,

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.i
WASHINGTON, December 10.-President
Harrison may yet have an opportunity, be-
fore the expiration of his term, to appoint
his law partner, William Henry Miller, to
a seat upon the bench of the United States
Supreme Court. 1t is understood that the
Senators who are members of the
Judiciary Committee have under con-
sideration the plan of bill providing for
the appointment of two additional Supreme
Court Justices. The request for the passage
of such bill comes from the members of
the court, who say that owing to the in
creased amount of work to be thrown upon
them, by the admission of the new States.
additional Justices are required.
OF course, if the bill becomes law, it
will be necessary to make new assignments
of the Justices to the various districts
throughout the country, and it will also be
necessary to create at least two additional
districts. It would not do to divide this
extra work among the nine members of the
court, as they are already overworked and
two or three years behind on the docket.
In addition to these proposed two addi-
klOud4 q uSblCCc1 ~ 40 ooA0 SAdt buC L LCoANCub
will probably have the appointment of two
or three more before the expiration of his
term, as Justice Miller and one or two
others will De ready to- retire before that
time, and they will certainly do so if Presi-
dent Harrison should be succeeded by
Democrat
In connection with the plan for the en-
largement of the membership of the court,
the Justices are also seeking supporters for
the bill, already introduced, providing for
the erection of a separate building for the
use of the court. It is said that the rooms
now used are too small, inconvenient, and
badly lighted. Senator Morrill, has intro
duced the bill for the erection of the
new building. and it is now before the
Committee of Public Buildings and grounds
for consideration. 1t is the intention of
those interested in the matter to have the
court building located, should the bill be-
come law, either in Judiciary Square,
where the courts of the district are, or on
a site to be selected in the neighborhood of
the new library building, on Capitol Hill.

Gripmau's Negligence.
Collector S. D. Warmcastle met with a
painful but not serious accident Monday
night He was going to the East End ON a
Penn avenue car. At the power house. on
Thirty-third street the gripman failed to re-
lease his grip in passing over the pit, and it
was caught BY the wheels in the pit. A The
car was stopped SO suddenly that Mr..
Warmcastle, who was sitting nes.r the
'front.' was hurled against window. His
head broke the glass, and sharp edge of it
made long cut on his nose, about an eighth
of an inch deep. His hat was cut through
in two places. He hurried to a drugstore
and had the bleeding stopped, but not until
he had probably lost three ouncesiof blood.
The gripman received blow on the leg by
the grip, which disabled him. The dozen
passengers in the car were thrown into
heap on the floor, but, with the exceptions
mentioned, none were badly hurt.

He Does Not Believe Consolidating the

Concerning the report that State Vice
Councillor Stephen Collins, of the Jr. o. o.
A. NJ, is opposed to the consolidation of the
Senior and Junior Orders, because it might
interfere with his chances for becoming
State Councillor, Mr.. Collins had this to
say to DISPATCH reporter before his de-
parture for New York:
81 have never opposed consolidation,
attended the meeting in the hopes of hear
ing some reasons advanced why a consoli-
-dation would benefit the cause-or benefit
the orders-nothing ws.s shown to that effect.
have said that did not believe consoli-
dation would come seon-and that was not
prepared as yet to favor it. I believe as
much, if not more, can be accomplished by
both orders working independently, but
harmoniouslY.
"As to my opposing it because am a
State officer in the Jr. o. q. A. NJ, I
have only to say that there is only one
higher position that can be elected to in
the State, and will be elected to that next
July, before q, consolidation could possibly
be effected IS it must be done through the
National Councils at or after their meetings
next summer"

THE sCULLING CHAMPIONSHIP.

Nobody Can Lay n Just Claim TO the
Title.
The somewhat sudden death of Henry Searle
the champion sculler of the world, leaves the
championship an open question. A similar oc-
currence has only happened once before, viz.
when Renforth, the Englishman died suddenly
in his boat When that sad event took place
Joseph H. Sadler claimed the title, but could
not get it until he offered to row anybody in
the world. His challenge was accepted by
Robert Bagnall and the former won.
Similar conditions exist now. Neither O'Con-
nor nor Stansbury can lay Just claim to the
title. 1t must be rowed for, and Stansbury can
Eot compel an opponent to row on Australian
waters. There is an opportunity for some en-
terprising sporting people to promote gigantic
sculler contest for the championship of the
world.
