Recommendations.
TrrcrAL TELEGRAM To- THE DrspArcH.i
CHARLESTON, w. VA, Jan. IL-The
Legislature assembled at noon to-day, there be-
ing but one absentee in the House, and one in
Senate. AL of the Democratic caucus nomi-
nees for office were elected in the House by A
Democrats to 20 Republicans, and in the Senate
by IL Democrats to Republicans. The Gov
ernor's message was read in both branches.
Among other things the Governor recon-
mends that if the election bill passes the time
of holding the State elections be changed so as
to be beyond the influence of the Federal law
He recommends the appointment of Worlds
Fair Commission, and Urges the limitation
OF appropriations SO as to create NO
deficit. The message suggets that the
law relating to State banks be SO
amended as to require periodical reports, made
in the newspapers of their counties. In regard
to the reapportionment of Congressional and
Legislative representation on the basis of the
census of 1891, the Governor suggests that ii be
on the present number of Senators and Dele
gates, or such members not materially in ex-
cess thereof, as will more nearly give tn each
county its Just share of representation. Atten-
tion is called to the fact that West Virginia
has no Agricultural College for colored per-
sons. and the necessary action is recommended.
The Australian system OF voting receives at
tention, and 1t is recommended that similar
system be adopted in this State; also that stat
utes be enacted providing for severe penalties
for crimes against the purity OF the ballot; that
tax laws be amended with reference to certain
classes of property used within the State, and
belonging to or claimed by foreign corpora
tious now evading taxation.

new YORK. Jan. A-The National League
convened shortly after noon and continued in
session until o'clock without transacting any
important business. A recess was taken until
o'clock.
The American Association met at 3 o'clock
with President Thurman in the chair. ST.

Chapman; Columbus. Messrs. Cohen and
Schmelz; Baltimore. William Barnie and Vou-
derhurst: Rochester. General Henry BrinKer;
Toledo, Messrs. ketchum and Morton; Syra-
cuse George K. Frazer; AtheticG G.. NJ. Taylor.
The Syracuse and Athletic delegates were
not present in the meeting. Early in the day
an injunction was served ON the American AS
sociation officials restraining that body from
expeling Toledo. The Toledo people became
frightened. but there was no cause for anxiety
Syracuse had been indirectly offered 5000 to
get out and Manager Frazer was more than
willing to take it. Rochester was offered
$1,000. and General Brinker said the Associa-
ton, ne knew, would give still more. President
Parsons. of Louisville, is opposed to paying one
penny TO any club tn retire. All the other del
egates are disposed to make settlement.
The meeting adjourned till 10 o'clock to-mor-
row morning, after brief and uneventful
session. II compromise is reached it will be
done on the outside, and then the meeting will
simply sanction it. Chicago seems to be as
sured of an American Association franchise,
and it was runored that Chicagos Sunday
games might be played in Milwaukee. Man
ager Z. III. Cushnan, of Milwaukee, was on the
scene, though not for that purpose, he said.
Mr.. Cushman said that while the League and
Association might want the Western Associa-
ton to go into the national agreement, the
western folks might not be so willing to enter.
They wanted TO see some benefit from it first.
If by any deal an American Association fran
chise should 60 begging Milwaukee would be
delighted to go in. Buffalo capitalists are
ready to take franchise and were expected to
be represented. but did not appear.
General Dixwell, of Boston. was unconcerned
about the future of his cub-apparently. He
said the League could not afford to freeze them
out of the American Association. The Play
ers' League, he says. is ty no means dead. 1t
has four solid clubs, and can 60 ahead on
small but sure scale. He is almost alone in his
position. The remnant ot~the Players League
is to hold meeting Friday.

OPINIONS OF SPORTS.

Kilrain, Muldoon, Meyer, Mclaughlin and
Number of Lesser Lights Talk on the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Is InvincibIe in
His Glass.
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 14-Jake Kilrain
said: "Fitzsimmons is truly wonder. He
is as clever as they make them, and his hit
ting power is immense. There never was
a middleweight like him. Talk about his
legsl Why, there isn't weak spot in
| him."
William Muldoon, the wrestler, before
the fight, said: 81 have my money on the
one that my judgment tells me is the best man
that is. Oh Fitzsimmons. My sympathy is all
with Dempsey" After the fight Muldoon
! said: II never dreamed he was such man. He
! is a whirlwind, terrific hitter, two-handed
| fighter and great general. never saw as fair
| a fighter in my life. He should have been
| awarded the fight two rounds before. The
referee is fair man. III he hadn't been scru-
| pulously careful. he could have awarded the
| fight round at least sooner It's great pity
| that Fitzsimmons didn't win in ten ROUNDS. as
| there was great deal of money upon his doing
| So"
Billy Meyer said he was amazed at Fitzsim-
mons ceverness, although he had put his
money on him. He was N 1t all the time, and
was as fresh as lark when he finished.
Major Mclaughlin. President of the Califor-
.
| Fitzsimmons fight in Frisco with Mccarthy
| have been certain he could lick Dempsey. My
| only surprise is that he did not do 1t in fewer
rounds"
Macon, the sporting authority. said he felt
| terribly disappointed. He had been Demp-
| sey man, but after the second round he saw
Jack wasn't in 1t.
Bantam the Southern sporting authority
| who came out boldly when the match was made
and predicted that FitZsimmOns would win, was
| naturally very happy. He said very few heavy
! weights could whip Fitz,immons.
| When the fight was over FitZSimmons was as
| full of fun as colt. He spared with Carroll
| and tapped him the nose payfully. He
| spoke highly of Dempsey as good, game
| fighter. Jimmy Carroll also had a good word
| for the fight Dempsey made.
| Phil Lynch, one of Sulivans hackers in the
| Sulivan-Kilraln fight, said: Il lost heavily

good a. ever he was but couldn't reach his

as he is. He can whip them all"
Frank Stevenson, KIlrain's hacker. said
| "Dempsey made a game fight and was at his
best. FitZSnmons was clearly the best man
and oveImatched Jack. FitZsimmons is the
cleverest man of his class, and the best fighter

that Europe will not disarm, as Russia will
not consent to do so on the ground that she 10

fact that there must necessarily be delay in
mobilizing her forces, the Russian railroads

German and Italian fleets may unite against

French feet was superbly manned, and that it
would be victorious were 1t not for the fact
that the vessels were inferior to and slower

when their horse backed off bridge and their
vehicle was upset. They were both thrown
out, and Mrs. Rauser sustained serious bruises
about the face and head, while her son was not
so badly hurt. Yesterday she had become so
weak that her condition was critical.
Early yesterday morning her husband James
Rauser, drove to this city for their daughter,
Mrs. John Woods. About 10 o'clock in the
morning he, with his daughter and Mr.. Woods,
started for home. At the corner of Thornton
and Main streets the animal took fright and
upset the buggy. All three were thrown on the
hard frozen ground. Mr.. Rauser was cut about
the face, his body was bruised and his back
badly sprained. Mr.. Woods fell on his right
arm. which was seriously sprained. Mrs. Woods
was but slightly scratched and bruised.

Buried, Believing Him Alive.
ESPECIAL TELEeRAM TO THE DISPATCH;

affairs has been brought TO light in the south
ern part of this county to-day. Last Sunday n
week ago Mrs Negard, widow. contrary to
her custom and belief, baked bread on Sun.
day. She sent her son out to make hole in the
ice in the creek so that the stock could drink.
While he was doing this he took fit. and fell
face down in the pool and was drowned before
his mother could reach him.
She succeeded in getting him into the house,
and had him laid out in bed. where he has re-
manned ever since. She claims that he is not
dead, but that God has put him in that coudi-
ton as punishment for them for the Sunday
work. She allows the neghbors to call and
look at him, but will not allow them to stay
over night She sleeps in the same bed with
her son, and says he will soon come back to life
