were discussed for next season, one bein z
to reorganize as a New York State League

pact circuit, and the second to organize
an American Association to include the
strongest cities in the Eastern and West
ern Leagues last year. The advisability
OF continuing the present Eastern
League was also discussed. The report
OF the secretary showed that the Bing-
namton Club won the final champion
ship, having percentage Of 66.6.
President White was instructed to
make formal demand on the national
board for decision on its appeal regard
ing violations of reservation rights. The
league lookswitt favor on efforts TO add
new features to the game. and advocates
increasing the base lines to 93 feet and
placing the pitcher in the centre of the
diamond. 1t was decided that next sea
sons circuit should consist Of no more
than eight clubs. No PLAYERS contracts
will be made for longer than four months.
The following cities will be considered in
completing the circuit for next season:
Toronto, Erie, Rochester, Syracuse,
Wilkesbarre, Utica, Worcester aud New
Haven. The meeting adjourned to meet
in Buffalo at the call of the chair.

PUBLIC LEDGER BURNED.

George w. Chiids Loses His Composing
Room-sIuch Damage BY Water.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec THE Public
Ledger building at Sixth and Chestnut
streets was almost Quilted last evening
by fire. The damage by fire was con-
lined to the composing room, situated
on the top floor, but a torrent OF water
poured down through the building,
flooding every floor in the structure
The loss will probably be between
s250,000 and $3.50. 200. The Ledger
building is a fve-story brown stone
block with a mansard roof The fire
originated at . o'clock in the basement
and went through the air shaft, spread
ing TO the top floor.
The files of the paper were all saved
and the many rare and costly articles
in the offices were all carried out. In
the meantime a dozen streams of water
had been turned on the fire in the cell
lar and the flames there were soon ex-
tinguished. The flames in the compos-
ing room had been playing havoc. The
fire burst through the roof and shot
up in great column toward the
SKY. About this time Mr.. Childs
arrived. He posted himself IN
the doorway of the court house
across the street from the burning
building and watched his building go
up in flames. He said he liked to watch
the fire. While the firemen were at
work they were stirred to greater eff
forts by the promise OF Mr.. Childs to
distribute $500 among them for their
gallant work. Neither was Mr. Childs
unmindful of the fire1nen's comforts,
for he provided them with what they
wished at a neighboring restaurant
The Public Ledger was established in
1886 by Messrs- Swain, Abel and Sim
mons In 1856 tho paper was purchased
by Mr.. George w. Childs, who has since
owned it. The Ledger is noted in the
journalistic world for its conservatism
and accuracy in correspondence, and is
one of the best known in the country.
The present Ledger building was
erected in 1865. Repairs on the build
ing will be begun at once. The insur-
ance on the building was S1G0,O 900.
