BAD FOR THE BROTHERHOOD.
No Doubt Butthe Members Could Be
Enjoined from Playing.

Enjoined from Playing.
New York, Nov. 2.-There was lively
meeting at the office of the Sporting Times
to-day between the directors of the New
York club and J. ". Spaulding, represent
ing Chicago. The moneyed men Of base
ball are happy, and say that the nail has
been driven into the brotherhoods
coffin. John B. Day, president of the
New York club, has issued card
Ito the pressn He says: "Soon after the
announcement in the public press that the
brotherhood of ball players contemplated
severing its connection with the national
league, the New York club received a COM
munication from John /. Rogers, counsel TO
the league, co the effect that the league
clubs held an option on the services of such
players as would be reserved for the season
next ensuing.
THE OPINION CONFIRMED.
Desiring confirmation of this opinion,
the club applied to j. r. c. Blackburn, who
drafted the contract adopted, and now in
use between the league and the brother
hood, and upon which Rogers t,sed his
opinion. Mr. Blackburn rendered an opin-
ion fully supporting Mr.. Rogers position.
Quite recently an alleged opinion ad-
verse TO that of Mr.. Rogers appeared.
Realizing that the interests of both
clubs and players would be best conserved
by thorough understanding of the situa-
tion, and wishing to set at rest once for all
time the legal questions involved, we in
structed our counsel to lay the whole
matter before the eminent law firm Of
Evarts, Choate & Beaman and secure their
opinion.
DESIRE FOR HARMONY.
SIT is the earnest wish of every officer of
the New York base ball club that the very
pleasant relations now existing between the
club and players may continue, and the
club will heartily join its players in an
effort to heal the breach now existing be-
tween the League and brotherhood with a
firm conviction that such an effort will re-
suit successfully.
IN THE SAME LIGHT AS ACTORS.
Evarts, Choate & Beaman, in their opin-
ion, say: 1.-THE principles of law which. in
our opinion, should govern courts in de-
Gliding the rights of parties under this con-
tract are the same as those which have
been applied by the courts in deter
mining the obligations of actors
under their contracts with managers
of theaters, for base ball club stands in the
same relation to the base ball players en-
pioyed by it, that manager Of theater
stands to actors employed by him, and
there are many cases, as you may know, in
our New York courts, where actors and
actresses while under contract with one
manager, have been enjoined from playing
elsewhere.
COULD BE ENJOINED.
II the base ball players reserved for
the season of 1890 by the New York Base
Ball Club, under its contract with them,
should organize themselves into new club
and play as members Of that-club, it would
be violation OF their contract with the
New York club just as much as if shey
contracted to play with some club now ex-
isting, and, in either case, we think that
the courts ought to enjon them from play
ing with any club except the New York

Four Men Killed and Several Wounded
in Night Fight.


CHICAGO, I'LL, Nov. "A special dis
patch from Milton, w. Va, says: "Re-
ports Of another battle between the Hat
fields and McCoys have reached here.
Friday night party Of about thirty Of the
McCoys came across the Blumfeld camp
IN the woods, about six miles from Green
Shoals. Both bands were bound for the
headquarters of their respective factions.
and were heavily armed. When the
McCoYs discovered their enemies they sent
out scouts, and discovered that there
were about a score in the camp. They
crawled up through the dense under-bush
and poured in a volley ON their sleeping
foes. In an instant IL was returned, and
the Hatfields. although taken by surprise,
were so much better armed than the Nc
Coys, having repeating rifles. that they
soon put them to flight
MANY WOUNDED AND -FOUR KILLED.
Zone volley. fired by the McCoys, did
terrible execution. Half a dozen men
were wounded and two were slain. John
Blumtield. one of the leaders Of his faction,
was instantly killed. BY his side lay
Edwin Brown, the son of the woman who
was shot in her farm house at Fudgy's
creek. Two bullets had gone through his
body, one piercing his heart. Six other
men were wounded, one of them, whose
name is unknown, being fatally hurt.
LOSSES OF THE M'CoYs.
"After dawn the Hathelds found two
more dead men, aud four desperately
wounded were captured. Some of the
wounded McCoys must have been carried
OFT by their friends, for the trail OF their
retreat through the woods was marked by
blood stains. The prisoners cap
tured are Charles Lamkiu, John Cain
and Pete Mccoy. The names of the dead
are unknown. Cain, whose first name was
not learned, was 50 badly wounded that his
captors left him to die where he lay, but
the other three were compelled TO march to
the Hatfield headquarters. which they
reached about noon yesterday.
A CoURT-MARTIAL.
"As soon as the story Of the attack and
capture was told sort of court-martial
was held. The prisoners were not allo wed
to speak in their own defense, ana after
short deliberation vote on their life or
death was taken by the entire Hatfield
party. The result was unanimous, and the
three men will be tied to trees and
shot to-day. Nothing can save them
unless the McCoys can defeat the
entire Hatfield party and effect a rescue.
This is not likely, as they are out outnum-
bered two to one, and the Hatflelds are bet
armed. The courier who brought this
news was shot at twice from ambush while
riding through Lincoln county,

GRRMANY's SOCIALISTS.
The New Bill Must Be Modified to
Assure Adoption.

The New Bill Must Be Modified to
Assure Adoption.
Copyright, 1889, bv Reto York Associated Press
BERLIN, Nov. 2.-The socialist bill will
not receive the report Of majority of the
Reichstag, unless subjected to modification.
The national liberals dislike the proposed
tribunal of appeal. and demand that power
to decide appeals be vested in the supreme
court at Leipsic. This the government will
concede. The national liberals further de-
mand that an appeal shall have suspensive
effect in the case of the suppression of Jour-
mails, and that such suppression shall be en-
forced only after an appeal has been
rejected.
EXPULSION OF PERSONS.
They also object to the clause forbidding
persons expelled under a minor state of
siege to return after the siege
has been raised without the assent
of the police. The effect of this
clause will be to enable the police to
Danish forever socialists and suspects from
places where siege has been declared for
a single day. Although this clause will
permit of outrage and persecution, the gov
ernrnent Is likely to insist upon its adoption.
The bill will give rise to prolonged and ex-
cited debates, in which Prince Bismarck
will participate. The Center party, at a
meeting to-day, unanimously decided to
oppose the measure.
INCOMPETENT FOR HIS OFFICE.
The withdrawal from Office of Herr Won
Maltzahn, secretary Of state for the impe-
rial treasury, is imminent. The budget de-
bates disclosed his obvious incompetence for
the pest. He spoke with embarrassment
and repeated stoppages.
The bill prepared by Treasury Director
Ashenborn at the suggestion OF Herr Won
BennigseD, for the creation of an imperial
financial secretary, to have dominant influ-
ence over the finance ministers of the fed
Grated states, has the approval Of Prince
Rismarck
