MR.. o'SEI1L's STATEMENT.

1--WE release Kelly because he has been drink
ing and fear that he might get some of the other
men in the same habits. He is 8 nrst-class player
when in condition and his lushing is all that
would drive to part with him. The other men
are not fast enough for the League.
1--WE have signed two good men, Crane and
Fitzgerald. and can assure you that in 10 days
we will have a good team in the field. l have
catcher and one other PLAYER on the string that i
will know about soon. Both are hrst-class men
ana will add strength TO the team. Fitzgerald,
the second base man, is not in condition and
Crane will play that position for about 10 days
after which he will take La Roque's place At short
La Rogue will probably play left field then and II
he is a success will be retained there. Schmidt
will be given another trial. Gray, Baker and
GoMderE are all right with team behind them. -

AN AGREEMENT REACHED.
Satisfactory Conference Between the Gram
Trade and Railway On,cinls.


The Richmond grain dealers and the rail-
road people will settle their differences
among Themselves.
And thus will be terminated q contfo-
versy that two weeks ago threatened TO De
matter of great annoyance both to those
complaining and the managers of the trans
portation lines.
The trouble was about the charge OF 81
per day made by the railroads on each car
of hay OF grain not unloaded within forty
eight hours after arrival here. The gram
men considered this n hardship. and at
meeting held to consider the matter de-
cided to carry their grievance to the Rail-
road Commissioner. and if need be To ap-
peal to the General Assembly and the
courts.
A happier solution, however, has been
reached-that is, temporary agreement
has been entered into with the understand
ing that this shall either be made perrla,,,
nent or some other plan satisfactory to all
shall be determined upon.
This was the result of a conference held
at the Grain and Cotton Exchange yester-
day at the close of Change between
Messrs. Sol. Haas and e. d. Hotchkiss,
representing the railroads and the Trade
and the Car-Service Association. Mr..
Charles j.. Todd presided over the meeting.
The Trade being asked what arrangement
would be satisfactory, replied through
the chairman of the committee having
the matter in hand, that if given hve
DAYS to unload a car of hay and three
days ON other goods would be satisfactory
to them. This was accepted by the rail-
way people for the period of fifteen days,
in which time they will confer with tne
Car Association, and if this proposition IS
not permanently accepted the car people
will submit another schedule.

Miss Shaw. the daughter Of hotel propIie-
tor here. was recovering from severe eff
feet Of the grippe, when she was seized
while at supper with a, violent attack OF
sneezing. and with every breath there was a
sneeze. and they came in such rapid sue
cession that finally there was hardly an In
terva. Manv kinds of remdeies and drugs
were used without any relief, and finally
choroform was administered.
While under its influence Miss Shaw
stopped sneeZing. but rs soon as she re-
covered consciousness she began again.
After several hours she became so weak
that she would fall almost lifeless on her
pillow after paroxysm Of sneezing. Her
throat became so badly swollen that the
operation of tracheotomy was found to be
necessary.
The sneezing continued for forty-eight
hours before it was checked. The girl is
now recovering.

cred and under the added stimulus of soul
stirring music. brilliant uniforms. and en-

given.
