FARRELL rs SIGNED BY PITTsBURG

Secretary McCracken, of the Homewood
Driving Park, has already started to arrange
big and attractive racing programme for
this year. The directors of the association
will meet next week and definite arrange
ments will be made as to dates for spring
and summer meeting together with the
value of stakes and purses. The hustling
Secretary has some excellent ideas which
he wants put into operation and he is In
hopes that the directors will indorse them
at the meeting next week. During a con-
versation yesterday Mr.. McCracken said:
''I think we will resolve to adopt a new
feature at our summer meeting. We have
had the matter talked over and we all seem
to be in favor of it. We will, think,
have two stake races for slow horses, trot-
tiers and PAGERS. The stake for each will
not exceed 81, 500 and the class will prob
ably be three-minute. To start horse'for
either of the stakes will not cost an owner
more than about $40, but each owner must
name his horse at the second payment. He
can name two and start one. We think
there is such large number of green horses
whose owners would like to try them if the
cost is not too big that the proposed stake
races will be a success.
"And l intend to ask the directors to
have 900 stake race for trotters some
where between the 2:20 and 2:30 classes. L
think we are sure to have stake race of
not less than SIS, 900, but 1 favor making it
$40, 900. If Detroit can afford to have such
a lace we can. The dates for. our summer
meeting will be July 12, 13, IA and 10. Of
course we expect to have a great meeting.
"And we will, have a tive-day meeting
commencing on Decoration Day. That
holiday is on Monday and that will enable
US to have five days racing without trouble.
quite large number of horses in spring
time. am glad to say that our association
is going along all right and we hope to have
a good year,

ARRESTED FOR AN OLD CRIME.
A Wealthy Man Taken on Charge of
Forgery Ten Years Old.

MEMPHIS, Jan. Al Special. Charles T.
Whitman, who lives in this city and has
large lumber interests in Tunica county,
Miss, was arrested here last night
on the supposition that he is L.
c. Fink, who is wanted in Columbus,
O., for forgery committed ten years ago.
This is the second time in few weeks he
has been arrested on the same grounds. The
first time he told Deputy Sheriff
Goodwin, of Columbus, that he had
lived at Evansville, Ind, before
coming South, and could prove his
identity as Whitman. He went to Evans
vile and apparently satisfied the officer.
But Goodwin was convinced that he was
Fink, and, allowing him to return home, he
went to Columbus, procured requisition
papers, and returned here for him. He
collared him at the station, as he came in
from Mississippi to visit his family, and set
off with him on the first train for Columbus,
without giving him a chance to communi-
cate with his wife.
Whitman, or Fink, has always conducted
himself well here, and has many friends
who believe in his pre-, stations of inno-
cence. He insists that it is a case of
mistaken identity, and that he was
never in Columbus. The Columbus officers
have been looking for Fink all these years,
but got no clew till Goodwin saw Whitman
last month at Tunica.

ANSWERING OBJECTIONS.
East Liverpool Baseball Authorities Talk
About the County League

About the County League.
EAST LIVERPOOL, Jan. 4-tSpeciol 1.-The
Eclipse delegates Messrs. Calhoun and
Travis, will be present at the Allegheny
County League meeting with instructions
and full power to meet any and all objec-
tions which may be brought up against their
becoming members of that organization.
A part of the objections have already
found their way into the public press, but
none have as yet been brought forward but
what can be quite easily met. 1t has been
said that the PittSburg clubs would be COM
PEELED to lose too much time in order to play
here. A glance at the train schedule of the
Cleveland and Pittsburg Railroad will show
that the Pittsburg teams can leave the
Union depot at las, city time, reach East
Liverpool at 1924 and leave again for Pitts
burg at 6:l5. The extra distance fails to be
any objection when met by the offer OF our
management to pay each and every visiting
club mileage for the extra distance over and
above that paid by the other clubs
Some Pittsburg scribes have stated that the
team here would be controlled by Al John
ston and would be a professional one. This
is incorrect. The team will be managed lust
the same as last season and will contain
practically the same players. all of which
will be strictly amateurs. Johnston will
have nothing whatever to do with the team,
and the only dealings the club will have in
connection with Johnston will be the Ieas-
ing of the baseball privilege from the stock
company, which is now being organized to
improve West End Park.

SURE TO BE SHORT.
The Present Session of Congress Not
to Be Unnecessarily Long.
NCREARY'S CUTOFF PLAN READY.
Eighty Days to Be Allowed for the Return
of Appropriations.
SPEAKER PRO TEN TO BE CHOSEN TO-DAY

WASHINGTON. d. c., jar. 4.-The Post
tomorrow will say:
THE statement published some time ago
to the effect that leading Democrats are de-
sirous Of bringing the present session TO a
speedy adjournment, will receive corrobora-
tion to-day in the amendment to the
rules which will be offered by Rep
resentative McCreary, of Kentucky.
Governor McCrearv believes that all the
appropriation bills ought to be reported to
the House within the next so days, so that
they can receive speedy consideration, and
thus insure an early adjournment. Gov
ernor McCreary's amendment is made ap-
plicable to all sessions of Congress, and
reads as follows:
Governor McCreary's New Cut OF.
1t shall be the duty OF the several COM
mittees having Jurisdiction of the general
appropriation bills to report said appropria-
rion bills to the House, except the general
deficiency bill. within so days after the COM
mittees are announced in 4 long session of
Congress, and within 40 days after the com
mencement of a short session, and If any
committee fail to so report the reasons of
such failure shall be privileged for consider
tion when called FOR by any member.
Governor McCreary offered rule three
wears ago similar to the above, with the eI-
ception that no penalty was attached for
non-fulfillment. In this new rule debate is
allowed, which makes the dereliction of the
committee subject of public criticism.
THE usual constitutional amendment to
provide for woman suffrage, which has
made its appearance annually for some
years. will be introduced this session by
Representative Greenleaf, of Rochester, y.

mended bv the Judiciary Committee of the
House at the close of last session, will be

pirate resolution on the subject this week.
