KINGS TALE OF WOE,
The New York Players Fare Very Badly
With Their Club,

Pitcher Charley King returned from New
York yesterday morning and had tale of
woe to tell. He stated that baseball is in a
wretched condition in New York. Regard
ing the financial condition of the club he
said:
"The players have been given 25 per cent
of what the club owes them and the balance
is to be paid within seven months 1 have
only received Sls5 from the club since July
10 This will give the public an idea as to
how baseball players are faring now. The
absence of Richardson and Conner from
New York has mi jured the team badly. Rich
ardson is wonderful player and the New
York club cannot find his equal. Things
are in a bad state and I don't know how
they will end"

Cyrus Field Judson and Frank Judson,
Cyrus w. Field was perhaps the
most famous of the famous Field
family. lie was a great fuaucier, a
philanthropist and a successful rail
road operator. But the work with
which his name will always be most
prominently connected is the laying Of
the Atlantic cable, that wonderful en-
terprise which caused John Bright in
his great speech i'm Parliament TO say
of Mr. Field: Like Cyrus of old, he
freed the messengers of peace from
their bonds, gave lightning wings TO
international speech and moored The
new world beside the old
One of his projects which he would
doubtless have put into effect had he
lived, was the laying of a cable be-
tween San Francisco and Honolulu
The necessary concession was OBJ
tanned from the Hawaiian government
several years ago and the ultimate in
tention was to extend the line across
the Pacific
Cyrus Field was born at Stoclsbridge,
Mass. Nov. 80, 1919 In infancy and
early childhood, he was so feeble that
It was considered doubtful if he would
live to maturity, and yet at seventy
two his frame was erect and his eyes
so strong that he only used spectacle,
for very fine print.
Arrangements are almost completed for
the funeral which vii take place at
Stockbridge on Friday at 3 m. The
services will be simple; only members OF
the family and most intimate relatives
and fr;r5s Of the deceased will be present.
