1t Is now proposed TO extend the schedule Of
the association by adding twelve games to the

more IN the west. Boston is opposed to the
scheme and II is not thought likely that it will
succeed.
AT meeting Of the Western Association held
at the West Hotel in Minneapolis yesterday, at
which all the clubs were represented. either in
person or by proxy, the membership of the
milwaukee club was forfeited and its franchise
transferred to L. C. Krauthoff as trustee for the
association. Ils players were released from
their contracts and declared eligible to sign
with any national agreement club. The pros
poets are good for the retention of at least six
clubs and that the Western Association will
finish the season.

The Bailey Girls are Learning Some Of the
Past History Of Their Husbands.
There is much sorrow and anguish in the
Carondolet home of Mr.. aud Mrs. John jay
Bailey in st. Louis the result Of some distress
ing news concerning their sons-in-law, Thomas
W. r. Williams and Harry B. Morgan, mana
gers OF the Williams Opera Company. The
romantic story of the marriage of the young
ladies to the singers has been told in The STAR.
The news comes from Chester, H., and is to
the effect that both men were only recently
discharged from the southern Illinois peniten-
tiary. Williams" the dispatch says is an
Engishman of good family and an excellent
singer. He worked for about two years in tho
Southern Express Company's Office at Cairo,
ILL.,, where his engaging manners and musical
talent gave him the entree of the best society.
One day his accounts were found short some
S6O0, and as a consequence the dashing young
baritone for the next two years led the prison
choir and kept the stove shop books at the
southern illinois penitentiary. He was dis
charged on July 2. just one month prior to his
marriage with Miss Bailey, the prima donna Of
his new-dedged operate troupe
Harry b. Morgan, who soon after married the
prima donna's sister. is piano tuner and an
all-round musician Of some ability. He asserted
here that he had travelled with Gilmore's Band
for several years and managed a company Of
Swiss bell ringers in this country in 1889. In
August. $780, he was convicted Of grand lar
ceny at Toledo, ILL.,, and sentenced to one year
imprisonment Not much could be learned Of
his antecedents, but ne formed q valuable adj
junct to the prison choir and was generally
well liked by the prison officials Morgan was
discharged on July q and joined the Williams
Concert Opera Comedy Company at Ashley,
Ill.
Both young ladies, it appears, knew little or
nothing about their musical husbands or their
previous history. The marriages occurred in
Illinois. where the company was doing the
small towns, and the young ladies promptly no.
tilted their parents. Mr.. and Mrs. Bailey took
the matter philosophically and cousoled them
selves with the hope that it all for the best.
When the news from Chester reached them this
morning it came in the nature Of . severe
shock.
Mr.. Bailey remained at his home all day with
his wife, who is Frustrated by the distressing
news. 1t was understood that he would 20 to
his daughters and induce them to return to
their old home. The company is still playing
in Illinois and it is expected that Mr.. Bailey
will leave to meet his daughters.

FISHERMEN IN CANADIAN WATERS
Regulations Made Under Which They May
Get Bait and Food.

Get Bait and Food.
A circular to collectors of customs has been
issued jointly by the Canadian commissioner
of customs and the deputy minister of fisheries
calling attention to the following instructions
respecting the treatment Of foreign fishing
vessels in Canadian waters:
"Such fishing vessels entering a port for
shelter may anchor and remain in such port
for twenty-four hours without reporting, but
not communicate with the shore; but
any officer Of the customs or of the protection
service may IL necessary board such vessel and
require the master or person in charge to re-
port to him.
"a foreign merchant vessel duly registered
az such, may enter and report inward in any
port in Canada, and her master may purchase
fish or bait or other supplies for ships use or
commercial purposes and report and clear out
ward for foreign port.
"A foreign fishing vessel having a Canadian
license may also report in like manner, and
may purchase fish, bait and other supplies for
ships use.
'Sick or disabled seamen may be landed from
any fishing vessel on the same conditions as
from merchant vessel, provided the collector
of the port il satisfied the case is genuine but
permission to ship other men to replace those
landed must be obtained in every case from the
minister Of customs.
Licensed fishing vessels may be allowed to
purchase cables or anchors, or both, to replace
such may have been lost, the same being in
Guided under the schedule Of repairs; but in
the case Of any other foreign fishing vessels sp-
piication must be made to the minister Of GUS
toms.

GOV. PATTISON TESTIFIEs,
He Denies That His Bank Paid Bardsls
Interest on Public Deposits.

He Denies That His Bank Paid BardsIey
Interest on Public Deposits.
The most prominent witness who appeared
before the Barisley investigating committee at
their meeting yesterday afternoon in Philadel-
phia was Gov. Pattison. His appearance was
a surprise to most of the members. The
governor, however, stated that he had been
unable to attend at the time he was requested
to, and as he was in the city yesterday he
| wished to place himself at the disposal of the
committee, as later official engagements might
not allow him to attend without great incon-
venience.
At the opening Of the session Gov. Pattison
after being sworn was informed that accor ding
| to the report presented to the committee by
the mayors experts the Chestnut Street Bank
was accredited with having paid John Bardsley
interest on public money during the year 1889
to the extent of S714.60 and asked to explain it.
Gov. Pattison replied that during the time he
was president of the bank. from 1887 to Janu-
airy, 1891. and part of the time the bank had q
deposit OF public money, but never the pro
rata it was entitled to under the ordinance OF
council regulating the city banking. They also
had a deposit of the state funds, but he en-
phatically declared that no interest directly or
Indirectly, was paid by the bank or its officers
on those deposits. Interest was, however, paid
his own name. This CAME to his notice first in
August. 1890, when Bardsley wanted 3 per
cent. This rate he would not allow to be paid
| and Bardsley withdrew the certificate.
At the close Of Gov. Pattison's testimony he
withdrew and Expert Brown took the stand
| and resumed giving his evidence in regard to
Bardsley's money loans. There were a great
many OF them. ranging from small sums to
large ones, many Of them to contractors and
some to well-known politicians, the latter, how
ever, mostly appearing to be paid.
Expert Brown then informed the committee
OF a number Of banks to which II. H. Yard had
loaned out at interest money intrusted to him
by Bardsley, amounting to S206,0G0. Expert
Brown also testified that they had discovered
that Bardsey had in his hands for some time
$50, 1888, the proceeds OF the sale of securities
belonging to the sinking fund, which he loaned
out at interest.
After finishing with the experts testimony
for the present, the committee went into execu-
tive session and decided to held another public
session Thursday and private session today,
when they expect to receive the report of the
expert accountant whom they employed to 20
| over the books of the Keystone Bank They
also decided to ask the district attorney to fur
nish them with certain letters in his possession
relating to Bardsley's deal with his brokers,
and the interest which was paid him by tho
banks
