CONFLICTING NOTIONS.
Boston Enthusiasts Have Various View.
About the New Schedule.

About the New Schedule.
BOSTON, March 2o.-There was diversity of
opinion at the Hub over the policy displayed
by the League magnates in the rearrangement
of the schedule at New York TODAY, The
baseball "cranks'-thoSe who care only for the
game and don't care rap who the players are
so long as they put up a good game of ball
are in great distress because of the large num-
Der of conflicting dates They would be glad
to see game every day, and would have di-
vided their attentions without any feelings of
favoritism. They cannot very well be in two
places at the same time. and they are kicking
tonight because there will be IS games which
they must lose.
Among the other classes-those who have
taken up the bats in defense of one side or the
other-there is great rejoicing. There is a
strong feeling in this city over the break. and
this feeling is intensified by the work of the
Schedule Committee to-day. The League
sympathizers are overjoyed at the prospect of
a bitter hight. They are confident that the
6eld.
The Brotherhood people have all along
avowed desire to submit the question of
superiority 10 the public, and tonight they ex-
press themselves as satisfied with the outlook.
But II has been admitted by several that the
action of the League to-day was severe blow
10 the financial success OF the club in this city.
They needed all the money they could COM
mand to pay the stars who are now under
contract, and they could only meet that expense
by securing liberal patronage. The average
attendance at the games last year was about
1900 in round numbers. 1t would require a
large percentage of these figures to pay ex-
penses, and by dividing the attendance the
profits of each side were necessarily lessened.
1t is now question of good ball playing alone
Those who are blinded by prejudice toward
either side are so few in number that they are
not worth considering. The club which plays
the best game of ball-and that includes the
average playing of opposing clubs-will secure
the greater attendance.
President SOden and Director Conant re-
turned to Boston to-day. Both looked hapDy
Mr.. Soden didn't say much, but Mr. Conant's
face was wreathed in smiles. They didn't care
anything about the expense. tor they have
good fat treasury TO draw from. The Brother
hood players have plenty of friends, and they
too will draw well if they remain sober and
play good ball There are several however
whose regulations for sobriety not of the
best, and If they resume last years tao les they
will lose whatever support they would have
had through personal friendship. On the
whole. it looks as though The League had
little the best Of the situation.

RIPPERS' WORK.
Continued from First Page.

Garfield would take nomination. Lieutenant
Governor Lampson, who was ousted by the
present Legislature, may become competitor
for the nomination. Ex-Senators Ford and
Woolcott are also said to be candidates The
Democrats will hardly put up candidate. 1t
would simply De a waste of time.
The Twentieth district is Republican. Con-
gressmau Wickham is now in this district and
Is serving his second term. Ex-senator Ely,
State Representatives Layton and Braman have
been named in connection with determination.
Either would be good candidate. The Demo-
Gratis have not as yet hit upon anyone to make
the sacrifice.
The Twenty-first district was cut out to be
Democratic but there is considerable doubt as
to the tit of the garment. Congressman Bur-
ton, Republican. is on his first term, and it is
believed he would like to make the race again.
If a candidate he would doubtless receive the
nomination. Thomas L. johnson, a believer in
Henry George, is the probable Democratic can
didate but ex-Congressman FOran may rise up
against him. In that event there would be fun.
This comprises the Congressional districts
and the most prominent candidates at this
time but there is no telling what the nominat-
ing harvest may bring forth. The gerrymander
may inure to the benefit of the Democracy.
but that is debatable question. The people
may sit down heavily on the work Of the
'rippers."

WANTS ANOTHER TRY.
Carroll Willing TO Fight Jack McAuliffe
Again for $4,000.


SAN FRANCISCO. March 23.-Light-weight
Jimmie Carroll said this afternoon in the Sec
retary's room OF the California Athletic Club
that he was not satisfied with the result of last
nights battle with Jack McAulltfe, and would
challenge the New Yorker to fight him to a
inish,- -Queensberry or London, for $4,000 a
side, l3S pounds limit. Carrolrs former back
ers, Messrs. ]. Spreckles, Charles Sutra and
others, are still willing to pin their faith and
dollars to the plucky veteran and, as Dick
Roche said this afternoon that he would back
McAulltfe for SlO, 900 side against any man in
the lightweight class, another meeting is
among the probabilities.
Z. Booth. an Omaha sport, signifies his will
ingness to back Jack Davis. promising young
heavyweight of the Nebraska metropolis, to
the extent of $1,000 against the winner of the
WiISon-Choyneski battle next Wednesday
night. McAulitfe's hands are something ap-
palling to gaze on, but outside of this and
slightly swollen lips there are signs of pun
ishment worth mentioning to-day. The back
of Carrolls head where it hit the floor when
knocked insensible bears a good-sized goose
egg, and is very sore. His right eye has
mouse under 1t, and his lips are considerably
swollen up. He has little to say about his de-
feat, except that he lost through over-conti-
dence In the forty.seventh round.

made up his mind to take his club with its 10
players into the Brotherhood. His visit to
Cleveland soon after the recent League meet
ing was to lay the scheme before ZAP johnson,
and his trip to Chicago the first part of this
week was for the purpose of consulting Secre-
tary Brunnell. It. is stated that Brush
was in consultation with Brunnell for two days.
and begged to be allowed to come into the
Brotherhood. Brush's proposition was rejected
by the Brotherhood people, and there was
nothing for the indianapolis President to do
but go to New York and consent to the sur
render of his players, or be forced out OF the
League.

York say they will not 60 unless given stiff ad-

BRUNELL'S OPINION.
He Talks Very ArrfuIly About the National
Lengue Schedule.

Lengue Schedule.
CHICAGO, March 23.-Secretary Brunen to-
night. in an interview. said: The National
League schedule was evidently made up on the
lines laid down by the Players League. The
first National League schedule for ten clubs
was issued. L believe. for the purpose of draw
ing ours first and not last. This was under
stood at our Cleveland meeting, but we con-
sidered that the official notice, showing our
club changes during the playing season, was
sufficient guide to the National League if it
chose to change its policy of crush and let
others live as well as itself.
The public wanted our schedule and got it. I
have no idea that it will be changed. 1t suits
our clubs. the prizes in it are well distributed,
and it was adopted unanimously. The National
League had evidently determined to conflict
with us much as possible. That suits me SO
long as the National League goes record as
the party forcing the conflict. If it gets the
worst of the hattie it cannot ask for the public
sympathy. Not one of our teams has any rea-
son to fear such conflict. Each has its old
public favorites and public opinion with 1t, and
will, believe, draw an average of two people
to one attending National League games AS
the season goes along and we prove our SUI
periority to the National League in caring for
the public and giving it better baseball than it
has ever seen before. the average attendance
in our favor will increase

saved his life, and he has been since that
time comparatively we'll.

MINERS BECOMING SCARCE.
Youshiogheny River Coal Operators In
Pressing Need of Men.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,
WEST NEWTON, Pa, March 23.-There are
perhaps few, if any. instances in the history of
Youghiogheny river mining when coal miners
were such scarce article as they are to-day
1t may be doubted, yet is fact, that more than
500 miners could ind steady work on each side
of the Yough. between Scott Haven and Nc
Keesport. because any number are being
advertised for daily. This scarcity is made all
the more strange from the fact that the mines
in these regions have been in full operation al
most continually for the last eight months.
There has beeu no short nor prolonged general
strike at any time in this period while there
was long idleness in the Monongahela regions,
which usually results in many of the miners go.
iEg to the railroad works, and generally
caused too great an influx of men
along the Youghiogheny. Operators in these
regions are complaining daily. and even the
small works are sending out word that they
can accommodate so to 75 more men.
Many are wanted at Scott Haven, Alpsvilie,
Oscenla and Lake Shore. and each need at
least so more men and cannot get them. n. j.
BiCley wants 100.' They are in fact needed
badly at all points along the Yough.

where they got it, other than to say they shook

NO ROOM FOR THEM.
Jewelry PeddIers and Peanut Vendors Must
Vacate Allegheny Sidewalks.

Vacate Allegheny Sidewalks.
The ordinance relating to the hucksters'
STANDS on the sidewalk along the Allegheny
market was considered at last nights meeting
of the subcommittee. Within the past few
days number of the hucksters, jewelry ped
dlers, peanut venders, etc. having stands along
the sidewalk have applied to Mayors Clerk
Hunneshagen for a renewal Of their licenses.
He discovered that there was an ordinance in
existence providing that only gardeners and
farmers should be allowed to have stands on
the sidewalk. Upon this he refused to renew
the licenses of any but gardeners and farmers.
Those refused made strenuous objections
and complaint was made to the Market Com
mittee. The matter was referred to the SUBJ
committee, which met last night. They up
held the action of Clerk Hunneshagen, and
directed the market constable to see that the
ordinance was enforced, and only gardeners
and farmers allowed room on the sidewalk.
