MAeeIou WON THE MATCH.
Something About the Players In the b

Something About the Players In the Re
cent Chicago Billiard Tournament.
In the billiard match which took place in
Chicago recently between Frank Maggioli
and William Hauey, the latter came out sec
ond best. The match was for $50 side, 500
points up, at 14inch baik line.
Fourteen inch balk line is now the favorite
game with experts for all public contests, and
it Is one that brings out ali the beauties of the
game. While it prevents the monotony of
long runs amassed by nursing ON the rail. it
Is by no means as restrictive as cushion
carroms and admits of great freedom of exc
cution on the part of the player. In straight
billiards, of course, there is a great deal of
pretty shooting, but as before mentioned the
game grows tireSome the moment player
lands the balls on the rail In balk line bill
iards when the balls get on the rail in any of
the spaces formed by the intersection Of the
baik lines, the player must send one OF the
object balls out OF the space on his second
shot or take his seat. Nursing on the balk
line, fourteen inches away from the rail, is
one OF the prettiest and most difficult features
of this game and one in which Schaefer and
Slosson excel.

Remedy Lies in the Establishment
OF a Government Railway
Service.
A Plan Outlined Looking to the Ultimate
Purchase Of All the Railroads
Of the Country.
Bonds to be Issued Payable in Terms Of
Years-The Roads Report Treats the
Governments Attitude Towards
the Corporations in Very
Sarcastic Vein.

CHICAGO, H., Feb 20-The annual re-
port of the directors of the Chicago s. Al
ton will be printed tomorrow. 1t says
that the government legislation has
greatly injured the railways during the
past year. then proceeds as follows: 1T is
said that We should not complain unless
prepared to suggest remedy. We will
therefore suggest the ownership of rail-
roads by the national government and the
organization Of corps OF railroad operators
who shall remain in the service during
good behavior and be in no greater degree
under the influence of political parties
than the army militant. The outlines of
our suggestion may be stated as follows:
First-The national government shall
acquire the ownership of all the railroads
in the United States which are now used
for interstate traffic, such railroads to be
acquired by the exercise of it's
right of eminent domain, or by purchase,
under such limitations and rules as to
price as congress may determined.
SecOnd-Payment therefor to be paid by
the issue of government bonds bearing
Interest at a rate not exceeding ) per cent
per annum, said bonds to be redeemed by
the annual application of sinking fund
equal in amount to per cent of the whole
amount of such bonds issued, the annual
interest and sinking fund to be paid from
the net earnings of the railroads and the
rates of transportation from year to year
to be reduced, SO as to provide no more
money than shall be needed for such pay
ments. ~
Other details are then elaborated at con-
length.
The report. in conclusion. sarcastically
observes that probably nothing less po-
tent than a special interposition of proyi-
dence can SO change public sentiment as to
do anything which could be construed as
an admission that it had been in the least
degree wrong or unjust in its treatment of
railroad corporations during the last
twenty years. The suggestion we have
made appears to avoid the necessity for its
making such au admission if the course we
have indicated should be adopted"
