the Constitution,

tue OOusUtuu0ns
COLUMBUS, March 5-The American Associ-
alton of Baseball Clubs concluded business and
adjourned this evening. Aside from the adop-
tion of the schedule there were a number of
changes made in the constitution and bylaws
which were submitted by the Committee on
Revision. The changes. however, are of minor
importance, and consist more especially of ar
rangement and codiication. Among the
amendments are those which give the Presl-
dent authority to fill vacancies in the Board of
Directors and different committees; giving the
President power to appoint umpires; providing
for filling the position when neither umpire nor
substitutes are present; giving expelled players
the right of appeal to the Board of Directors;
wiping the word blacklist from the constitu-
adopted is the one which refers to the manner
of the reservation of players, which is as
follows:
On or before the 5th day of October in each
year each club member of the Association
shall furnish the President reserve list of
players, not exceeding IA in number, then
under contract with it, and of such players
heretofore reserved in any prior list, as author
lied by the national agreement of professional
baseball players, who have refused to contract
with it, and of all its eligible players, and on
the 10th day of October each year, or within
ten days thereafter, the President of this As
sociation shall send written notice by mail to
each of said players, addressed to his last
known postoffice address, that he has been
placed on said list. aforesaid, but the failure
of said player to receive said notice shall not
affect the validity of said reservation.

Republican Senators Express Their Opinions
on the New Cabinet.
The nomination of the members of the
Cabinet of President Harrison was received
with evident satisfaction by the great bulk
of Republicans at the Capitol, Senator
Allison was asked what he thought Of
it and responded: "It is first rate. The
closer it is examined and the more the men
are studied the clearer it will appear that
President Harrison has done the best thing
possible"
"What about Tracy?"
"He's all right; an excellent man. I've
known him for 20 years, and his appoint
ment will be entirely satisfactory to the
people of New York and of the country at
large when they come to know him."
Senator Spooner. speaking of the Wiscon-
sin member of the Cabinet, said:

During the seven years of his service as

together to compare notes with each other and to
discuss all the problems connected with agri-
culture. He has always been connected with
the agricultural societies of his State and
county, and has always manifested, both in
public and private life, an active and intelli-
gent interest in agriculture.

A RELIGIOUS WAR.
The Conflict Between the Protestnnfs and
Catholics In Canada-Jesuifs Sue
Newspaper for Libel
Trouble Feared.


Trouble Feared.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DrsPATcH.I
MONTREAL, March 5.-Considerable e1-
citement was caused this morning when it
became known that the Jesuits had entered
action against the Toronto Mail for $50, 900
damages for libel. The special COM
plaint of the plaintiffs is that
the Mail published an alleged
oath taken by all Jesuits, in which the
Pope only is acknowledged as their spiritual
and temporal head, and they renounce all
allegiance to any heretical king, prince or
State named Protestant, and that in all
things Catholic the end justifes the means.
The heads of the order here declare this to
be false and malicious. and published only
to create Protestant prejudice against
them. This action by the members of the
Society of the Jesuits has served to further
inflame the Protestants. The Rev. Bishop
Usher, of the Reformed Episcopal Church,
this city, says in letter published in the
Mail this morning: Gas a man Of paece,
I sav to Protestants, put forth your power
to prevent war, civil war, for come it
will"
In regard to this alarming statement the
Bishop said to-day that the Protestant and
Catholic population of Quebec and Ontario
are worked up on the Jesuit question and
there is certainly danger OF religious war.
Continuing, he said:
II desire to see all have, what would desire
to have for myself, the fullest religious liberty
to worship as conscience dictates, but in the
Province of Quebec the Church Of Rome is
practically the State Church. 1t rules the
province and rules it to its injury. as
seen in the dwarfed cities of Quebec, where
Rome has undisputed sway. The aim of
Rome is to make it the State Church of the
Dominion. That aim will be frustrated we all
foresee, but there is a vast difference in opin-
ions as to the way this will be done, and for the
welfare of Canada let it be remembered that the
easiest is the best way and that ballots better
than bullets. Let every Protestant use them
with effect. Let the Dominion Parliament be
dissolved and the country be appealed to on
the Jesuit bill, that defeated Rome may take a
hint and gracefully back done 70 ner leglsimate
position If not war will come"
Senator Trudel, proprietor of the Catholic
newspaper organ, will conduct the Jesuit
case in court

THE HOUSE LOSES ITS GLORY.

Activity Reigned.

Naught bur Desolntion Where for So Long
Activity Reigned.
Uttered with scraps of paper, with an at
mosphere vitiated by the breaths of thou
sands of people who for days past have
crowded its galleries, shabby in all its ap-
pointments, dusty, musty, forlorn looking,
the Chamber of the House of Representa-
tives to-day was not an object to attract or
please the view of any spectator; yet the Of
fcers of that body thought it incumbent on
them to restrict admission to the floor to ex-
members and their friends. Few of these
availed themselves of the privilege. Not
more than half dozen members were on the
floor, closing up their correspondence and
emptying their desks of the accumulation of
bills, resolutions and letters.
The only man prominently mentioned in
connection with the Speakership who was
present was Mr.. Reed, of Maine, who, throw
ing aside, as relic of the past, the cares Of
legislation, and with view to future ad-
vancement, chatted merrily and confden-
tally with his political colleagues as they
entered. Mr.. Cannon, of Illinois, did not
present himself upon the floor, but he re-
ceived his friends in the room of the Com
mittee on Appropriations. None of the
other candidates were at the Capitol.
A few handsomely attired ladies occupied
seats upon the floor and saved the chamber
from look'of utter dreariness and desola-
ton. A few pages, wearied from the late
hours which they have been required to
keep, lolled lazily in their seats and paid
little or no attention to the demands made
upon them. The ubiquitous newspaper
man vainly sought for an item of news
worthy his pencil.
The glory, the activity, the life of the
lower branch of Congress had faded, and
there remained nothing but deserted desks,
vacant galleries, and the malachite pedestal
from which the mace, the symbol of author
ity, had been removed.

State will be to appoint delegates to the con-
ference on Samoa in order that the question
may be settled without delay. The Post
says that in any case Mr. Pendleton will
be one of the American delegates.
The Bremen FOLKS Zeitung has been
seized for having published an attsck upon
Prince Bismarck. The police profted by
the occasion to make general search of the
Offices of the paper. The directors protested
against this action and appealed to the law.
Their counsel maintained in court that the
authorities had under the law no right to
take general action against the paper in
dealing with special offense. The Court
supported the police. The newspapers of
the various parties, including the Cologne
Gazette, approve the protest of the Volks
Zeitung.
The disturbance on the Paris Bourse to-
day did not affect business here, the range
of the crisis being considered limited. To-
ward the close speculative buying increased,
causing closing prices to become tirmer.

THE CAMERA CRANKS.

From Indianapolis ON Hand
His Exnert Rival.

They Help TO MAKE tne new EE1suonS
Life n Burden-The Lame Man
From Indianapolis ON Hand
His Expert Rival.
The pursuit of great men by photograph
ers is one of the newest Of the annoyances TO
which public men are compelled to submit,
and General Harrison has not escaped. The
story of Harry Rose, the lame and -meian-
choly expert of the camera who haunted the
vicinity of the Harrison house in Indian
apolis, from the day of the nomination until
the new President started for Washington,
has been told already to the point where he
struggled through the mob at the Indian
apolis station in season to fire farewell
shot at General Harrison as the train moved
out.
It was supposed that that was the end OF
him, so far as the President was concerned,
but it wasn't. At the very crisis Of the ex-
citement about the Presidents reviewing
stand, when the head of the procession was
in sight and the mob for blocks in both
directions was struggling to catch a
glimpse of the President and Vice Presi-
dent, vino had inst gone upon the stand,
there was an unusually desperate wrestle at
one point just opposite the spot where the
President stood, and in moment later the
lame and lean form of the Indianapolis
photographer emerged from the crush, his
camera held high above his head, to save it
from damage.
He wore soft hat instead of his custo-
mary battered high tile, but otherwise he
was the same familiar object that had hung
about the Harrisons like nightmare for
months. He waved his hat familiarly at
the President, after he had pulled himself
together, and planted his camera where it
would command a view of the Presldent's 8
stand. The police tried to make him move
on, but he didn't do it, of course, and pres
emily he motioned for every one to sit still,
and sprung his camera. The crowd in the
stands cheered him, and he was so encour-
aged that he limped about in the rain for
an hour, taking views Of the President and
the parade from different standpoints.
For real ingenuity, however, Rose cannot
hold candle-or more properly, camera
to man who blew a cornet in one of the
bands in the parade. He marched along
blowing for dear life until a moment be-
fore he was in front of the President. Then
his cornet dropped to his side, one hand flew
around under his coattails, and the next
moment reappeared holding little box.
An instant to adjust the locus, another to
touch the spring, a moment while the hand
was carrying the box back to its lair be-
meath his coattails, and then the cornet was
at his mouth and he was blowing away as
vigorously as ever, and in his coattail pocket
he had picture of the President reviewing
the procession.

DROWNED THEIR SORROW IN DRINK.

Some of the White House Servants Take a
Base Advantage of the Occasion.
Some of the White House servants appa-
rently drowned their sorrow over the de-
parture of the Clevelands in copious
draughts of whatever was left lying loose
about the house between the two admins
trations, for Son-in-Law Mckee was panied
beyond measure during the afternoon by
one of the colored men who insisted every
time he saw him upon his coming out to get
drink with him.
The son-in-law's refusal to accept the pro-
posed hospitality nearly caused a row once.
The servant and companion were fred
to-day.

PARNELL AND PIGOTT.

The Commission Makes an Attempt to Re-

LONDON, March 5.-The session of the
Parnell Commission was resumed to-day,
the Times counsel making lame effort to
renew their case. Presiding Justice Han
pen protested against Attorney General
Webster reading reports of anti-Parnell
speeches made by Messrs. Gladstone and
Forster, and other members of the House of
Commons. He said that while these speeches
were admissible as evidence they we're of no
importance. A constable testified that in
1882 Walsh consigned number of cases of
revolvers to Egan and Flanagan.
The English detectives who were sent to
Madrid to-day identified the remains of Pig
oft in the presence of the British Consul,
who then ordered that the body be inferred.

HARRISON AND SAMOA.
German Papers Do Not Like the Tone Of
the Inaugural Address-The Pro-
posed Conference Mt Berlin
A Radical Journal Is
Suppressed.

Suppressed.
BERLIN, March 5.-Excepting the Tag
blatt and the Vossische Zeitung, the Govern
ment papers here reserve their opinions on
President Harrison's inaugural address.
The Tdgblatt says that the address shows an
arrogant spirit, and that it does not display
particularly friendly feelings toward other
powers. The Vossische Zeitung says:
Friends Of America hoped for more friendly
disposition from Harrison than from Cleve-
land. The message hardly strengthens that
hope, referring to American claims and inter-
ests as if necessarily supreme-a view other
nations will not be inclined to recognize. These
criticisms arise from ill-inforlned expectation
that the message would contain some deliver
ance on the Samoan dispute which would indi-
cate the intention of the new Government to
reverse the Bayard policy in direction that
would meet Germany's desires.
More balanced and better conceived utter
ances ought to appear in the semi-oficial
press, which, though not likely to comment
upon the message in spirit of admiration,
will not commit the mistake Of supposing
that Mr.. Harrison ought to have made a
more explicit statement regarding Samoa.
In brief allusion the Politische Ndchrich-
ten speaks of Mr.. Harrison's declarations as
in every way calculated to inspire confidence
in speedy and successful settlement the
recall of Captain Leary already indicating
that another and a healthier breeze has be-
gun to blow in Washington.

Of the restored Republican regime, assumes

CLEVELAND'S SIGN UP.
The Ex-Presldent's Sign Adorns a Glass
Door In an Once Building.


ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcHl
NEW YORK, March "a telegram from
Dan Lamont was received at the Victoria
tonight, saying that ex-President Cleve-
land and Mrs. Cleveland would arrive there
tomorrow evening. Sign painters were busy
yesterday painting the name of Grover
Cleveland on the marble directory in the
lower hall Of the Office building at 45
William street. The title of the
firm of Bangs, Stetson, Tracy &
MacVeagh had not been changed
but the names of the members of the firm
had been removed. "Grover Cleveland
in gold letters followed the title, and then
came in order the names Francis Lynde
Stetson, Charles W. Bangs, Charles Edward
Tracy, Francis w. Bangs, and Charles
MacVeagh.
The same alteration was made in the sign
on the glass door leading to the suite of
offices on the seventh floor. There is a dash
between the title and Mr.. CleYeland's name,
and another dash between the name
and those following. Mr.. Cleveland's
Office is between those of Mr.. Stetson
and Mr.. MacVeagh. Mr.. Stetson said last
night that he thought that Mr.. Cleveland
would be at his desk before the end of the
week. He was at liberty to come when he
pleased. There were many callers at the
Office during the day, and the painters were
constantly surrounded by curious crowd.

CUSHING A WINNER.
He Defeats Harry Bartlett in Hot Battle
of Fourteen Rounds.


NEW YORK, February 5-Ike Cushing, the
Brooklyn pugilist, this morning defeated Harry
Bartlett, of London, in l+round battle for the
127-pound championship Of the world and a
purse of $1,000. The fight took place on plat
TO rm near the Clifton race track and was wit
messed by about 20 spectators. The trip to the
scene of the battle was a nasty one and both
pugilists and spectators were wet to the skin.
Gushing is 23 years old and feet inches in
heighth. Bartlett is three years older and
stands 5 feet 81 inches high. Time was called
shortly after o'clock. During the entire f1ght
the Brooklyn pugilist jabbed at his opponents
stomach with his left while his right was de-
voted to punching his head. The ninth and
round Bartlett back-heeled Gushing, but the
foul was not allowed. During the next and last
round Bartlett's upper lip was split by q we'll
directed blow. de at once gave up the fight
and acknowledged his defeat. The referee
then awarded the stakes to Gushing. The
battle lasted nearly an hour.

The most conspicuous thing about the up

Harrison family got together after the parade
was over was huge rag doll, with its fiat,
white face painted in glaring eolors, that
lay in prominent place just at the head of
the stairs. 1t was Betsy" one of the fam
lily of the babies Mckee, and the men who
brought the traps of the family over from
the Arlington had dumped it down in the
most conspicuous spot in the house.
The children had not come back from the
hotel yet, and Mrs. Harrison grabbed up
the doll and made believe to fondle it,
laughingly saying it was the nearest thing
she could get to her babies.

VICIOUS TO THE LAST.

The Abominnble Weather Causes Another
Postponement of the Fireworks.
The hoodoo that seems to have been over
the Harrison inaugural was seen again to-
night. 1t stormed too hard last night for
the fireworks and the display was postponed
until tonight. 1t has now been necessary
to postpone them again, this time until to-
morrow night. The wind tonight Is almost
vicious. 1t whistles through the sodden
branches of the trees and races through the
avenues and around the corners like an
amateur blizzard.
The Inaugural Committee decided that it
would be dangerous to have the fireworks.
