He VIII Nnt Rcsimn.

There was a report yesterday that
John W. Lawson, recently appointed
the Democratic member OF the police
commission, had been notified by the
officials of the Pennsylvania railroad
company, that he would either have to
master of the p, W. & b. and Delaware
railroads. Inquiry however showed
that such was not the case and that
there is no truthin the rumor.

THE FOOTBALL LEAGUE.
With the Association Clubs-The New
Castles Have Not Yet Won the Pennant

Some Information as to How Matters Stand
With the Association Clubs-The New
Castles Have Not Yet Won the Pennant
Several Exciting Games to Come.
Although little has been heard regarding
/ the affairs of the Western Pennsylvania
Football League lately, the organization is
not entirely wrecked, as many people sup
pose. There is no doubt that there has been
little interest taken in the competition IN
this city since the Pittsburg club withdrew
from the contest: willie, to make matters
worse, the Bloomfield club seems to have
died natural death, as they have forfeited
the last three scheduled games, while nothing
can be learned as to their intentions for the
future. The four remaining clubs-the New
Castles, Homesteads. McDonalds and Nc
Keesports, however, intend to carry out the
schedule, which closes on New Years Day.
The New Castle club are now almost sure
to win the penuant, as they have a clear
lead of four points from Homestead, who
are at present in second place They have
still two games on the schedule to play. but
one being with Pitrsburg, leaves them with
only McKeesport to beat to be hailed as the
champions of Western Pennsylvania for the
season of 1912. Considering the fact
that this is their first season in the
anH M club " may well be proud. They
have played all their scheduled games
to date OF which they have won six. lost one
and tied one. They have altogether scored
twenty goals and lost six while out of the
eight games they have whitewaSheG their
opponents no fewer than five times. Their
game with Mckeesport will be played on the
latters ground on Christmas Day, and in the
contest they ought to leave nothing to
chance, as should they meet with defeat
there is still q possibility of their being
beaten out by Mcdonald.
The disputed game between the latter
club and Pittsburg is still undecided. and
should the League insist on the game being
replayed. il WILL of course, be as good as
making the Mcdonald club a present of it.
seeing the Pittsburgs are playing no Leagus
games now. This would leave the Mcdonald
club with only two defeats against them.
and as il is likely they will win their re.
maininy scheduled games, it will then be
seen that the New Castle club have not al
ready won the pennant, as is generally sup
posed
The Homestead club who have made a
plucl1y fight all season will now try to finish
in second position. but will be pushed hard
by the Mcdonald and Mckeesports. The
PittSburg club, although having retired
from the League competition, are as full of
life as ever and at present are arranging
number of first-class games with outside
clubs. Arrangements have been made to
play Youngstown at Exposition Park on
Christmas, while a return match will be
played at Youngstown the following day.
Secretary Matthews is at present trying to
bring the East Liverpool team to Pittsburg
games will be arranged to take place
Throughout; the winter The standing of
the clubs in the League up to date is as fol-
lows:

MINERS SHOT DOWN.
A Sheriff's Posse, Attacked by a Mob
Armed With Winchesters,
KILL SEVEN ALIEN INSURGENTS,
The Routed Party Falls Back and Officers
Throw Up Redoubts.
REGULAR SOLDIERS ARE UNDER ARMS

DENVER, Dec ia strike of the min
ers at the mines of the Colorado Coal and
Iron Company, at Crested Butte, has re-
suited much more seriously than was at
first anticipated, and there are yet indica-
tions of further bloodshed. About two
weeks ago 800 Austrian and italian miners
employed at these works went out on a
strike because Of proposed reduction of
wages. Since then they have refused to
have stopped the pumps and fans at the
works, allowing them to fill with gas until
there is danger of the mines blowing up,
and have paraded the streets heavily armed,
threatening death to anyone who attempts
to assist the company.
Yesterday Sheriff Shares, of Gunnison,
arrived there with posse of IS men. No
sooner had the Sheriff and his men alighted
from the train than they were attacked by
about 200 Sicilians and Austrians, armed
with Winchester rifles. The officer held
his men for a moment and then ordered
them to return the fire, which they did with
deadly effect. killing Mike Copuicine, Mike
Minnelon, Mike Guercio, Mike Warn and
John Poche They were all Italians. George
Simonioi and Matt Grahak, Austrians, were
fatally wounded. After the firing the
miners retreated and the SherifFs posse
marched up the hill, took possession of the
mines and threw up redoubts.
The miners are swearing revenge upon
every friend of the coal company, and the
town of Crested Butte is threatened with
destruction. Further trouble is feared to-
night, which, if started, will result in many
deaths. The Governor has called out the
State militia and the troops are now at the
armory ready to start for the scene by
special train at moments notice.

LOOKS ALL RIGHT NOW.
Another Very Good Player Signed by the
Loca! Baseball Club.

Things are looking extremely bright now
for the Pittsburg ball club. Late on Frida =
evenin. Manager Buckerbergec sigN.i
Weaver. the excellent catcher and out
fielder 4 last years Louisville team. The
fact that Weaver has signed with the local
club goes to snov that he had not signed
witt: the LouisvilSss for next year. The
local officials are deltghseG with the capture
of Weaver, and President Temple is now
confident that there will be a good tea -
here next year.
The signing of Grimm and Weavsr will be
a saving for the local club, they can both
catch and play fielding positions in great
style. This will enable the club to get along
with comparatively few men. 1t is very
likely that Corkhill will be released in the
early part of the season. He would have
been released at once had he not received
advance money. but If ans other club wants
him and is willing to pay the Pttsburg club
the money advanced it is probable that he
will be letgo. The three new additions, Ehret,
Grimm and Weaver, arc satisfactory to oil
concerned, and promise to be great captures.
The signing of them reflects great credit on
Manager Buckenbergec. Vice PresidenJ
Kerr sta aes that Weaver has, so far, not ap-
piled for any advance money.
