to-day talking baseball with the local mag
nates The ex-manager OF the New York
Giants attended the meeting of the directors
of the Elmira club tonight and made
arrangements to act as manager Of the
team the coming season. He Is very en-
thusiastic over Elmira's prospects, and says
he will cause considerable hustling among
the other clubs. He expects to arrange ex-
hibition games between the local club and
the New York and Washington clubs before
the season proper opens. The directors
voted unanimously against admitting New
Haven and Providence to the League and
thus making a ten-club League.

MEMPHIS SPRING MEETING.
Big Crowds Arriving for the Races, an
Good Racing Expected.

Good Racing Expected.
MEMPHIS, TENN. March 22.-As the open
ing day of the spring meeting of the New
Memphis Jockey Club approaches. throngs
of people can be seen vending their way in
the early morning to Montgomery Park.
Owing to the recent bad weather and the
condition of the track Tor the past two
weeks, the "going" has been of for this
time of the year. thus the majority of the
trainers say they have not had the chance
to give their colts the training they should
have had this late in the season. Notwith-
standing all that, the majority of the horses
have wintered well.
Among the most promising 2-year-olds so
far are G. w. johnson, full brother to
Huron, Harvest Time, Humming Bird, St:
Croix, King Lee, Shadow. Fort Worth and
C. II, Gillock. The trainers are keeping as
mum as Egyptian mummies about their
Derby candidates. Phil Dwyer and Wight
man are the best thought Of so far, but the
knowing ones think that the Scruggins have
a high class one in Tom Harding. There
are now at the track 3l9 horses. Captain S.
S. Browns string is expected soon. The
majority of the jockeys have arrived, and
bookmakers and followers Of the races are
arriving daily,

THE NOISY PUGILIsTS
Latest Alleged Escapades of Mitchell and
Slavin in the East.

Latest Alleged Escapades OF Mitchell and
Slavin in the East
According to dispatches from the East
Mitchell and Slavin are having a high old
time in New York. Mitchell is once more
reported as wanting to fight Slavin and the
latter is once reported as calling Mitchell a
cur.
The two pugilists are also reported as hav-
ing gone to where Corbett was and told HIM
that he was only buffer and couldn't
fight little bit. The reports conclude by
saying that the police stopped the noise OF
the two foreigners.
If Mitchell and Siavin acted as stated their
conduct is TO be severely condemned, but it
must not be forgotten that almost every
Eastern paper has for long time been CEN
surfing and slandering the pair in an extrav-
agant manner. While Mitchell may be talk
ing foolishly the wild vaporing of Sullivan
about everybody else, and the tall talk of
Corbett cannot be overlooked. This all
shows that the entire business is one of
bluff and bluster, and all parties are striv-
ing to get the public ear. 1t is also apparent
that not one person In a hundred is disposed
to give Mitchell and Slavin a fair show.

BROOKLYN POINTERS.
Latest News About Candidates for
the Big Turf Event.
THE MITCHELL AND CORBETT ROW.
Excursion Trains for the Opening Of the
Local Ball Season.
THE NEW YORK TEAMS FIRST GAME

Patrons of the turf arc beginning to take
livelier interest than ever in the big turf
handicaps that are approaching, and as far
as Pittsburg is concerned more money has
been invested for the Brooklyn and Su-
burban so far this year than on any previous
events of the kind Many Western Penn
sylvania citizens are backing Tenny, but
that famous horse is gradually -eceding in
the betting and has gone back point or
two during the last few days. An Eastern
authority of prominence is inclined to
think that Tenny and Longstreet may not
see the post for the Brooklyn, and as a re-
suit he says 4-year-old Will be the win
ner He points out that the 4-year-olds
entered are an exceptionally good class of
horses and if fit and we'll will be hard to
beat.
Some Likely Runners.
The authority referred to says: "Just
consider for minute, Bermuda, Pes
sara, Strathmeath, Picknicker, Terrier,
Russell, Rey del Rey, Portchester, Montana,
Reckon, Ambulance, L'Intriguante, San
Juan, Uno Grande and some eight or nine
others. Why, they all know how to use
their feet, and what's more, on last years
running they're all on top of one another.
One can have preference, but he can't
back it up by any line of argument. Take
the J. A. & A. H. Morris lot What can
any one tell about them? They were run
off their legs, and they had to run them
selves ON again. Reckon, Terrifer and
Ambulance all three looked as if they were
in training to go through keyhole half the
season, while Russell was run often enough
to sour the best tempered horse in the world.
Considering the grueIling mes been given,
both as a 2 and 3-year-old, he must not only
also have been made of cast iron.
Horses Doing Well.
''I hear a lot about L'Intriguante. She's
certainly hard, useful looking sort, but
she's never won over a mile, and seems
better suited for seven furlongs / may be
wrong, but that's nv opinion. As regards
Terrifer. 1 know at the opening of the
Brooklyn spring meeting he was tried better
than Russell, but that stables trying their
horses most every day, SO that one can't lay
much store by that Ambulance, who
never looked herself, didn't show that she
liked a distance; so what are you to think
about stable like that? They were beaten
by nearly every horse that they beat, and
yet people are going crazy over Russell,
Terrifer and L'Intriguante. As for the
others of the same age, shan't say any,
thing until some of them have been put
through their facings."
Dispatches from the East state that the
weather has not been favorable for training,
and everybody agrees that Rey del Rey has
a good chance, as he is the fancy of Matt"
Allen. The horse is big framed and has
thickened considerably and looks now every
inch weight-carrier. He is expected to
stand his training we'll Uno Grande has
also wintered we'll Clarendon so far has
not given satisfaction, and he will not likely
be starter.

Everything that can be done is being done
by the management of the local baseball
club to have great opening day when the
st. Louis Browns come here. All the local
railroads have been asked to run ex-
cursion trains from nearby towns on the
occasion of the opening event. THIS re-
quest will likely be granted, as the patrons

Driven to aIadaess.

CHIcAGo, March 9.-Farmer L. Will
Jams, an inventor and patentee of pro-
cess for making cordage twine out of
paper, shot himself through the breast
last night, and will probably die. Will
Jams left the institute four weeks ago,
and has acted strangely at times, but
was cured of the liquor habit. After his
self inflicted wound was dressed today,
he suddenly became furious and fought
the doctor like madfnan, and tried to
jump out of window. Finally, having
suffered greatly from the loss of blood he
gave up and was put to bed, but again
arose, tore open his wounds, and struck
the physician terrible blow over the
head. The police were then summoned,
and Williams was taken to the detention
hospital today. 1t is said that his in
sanity is due to prosecution by the
National cordage company. whose agents
have harassed him and broken up his
plans for establishing twine factory.

Two sources of Power:

INDIANApoLIs, March 9.-Tbe Jenne
Electric company today shipped to Mich
igan a fifty horse power motor to beused
in the submarine torpedo-boat which is
being built for the United States by
Chicago capitalists. 1t Twill be tested by
the government in about three weeks.
1t is cigar-shaped, and has two sources of
motive power, steam and electricity, the
first generating the power for thesecond.
In case of emergency, a storage battery
system will operate the motor when the
vessel wishes to submerge. The failure
of nearly eleven submarine torpedo boats
has been due to the inability of the in
ventor to keep the cigar point from fast
ening in the bottom, but in this point
the submersion is accomplished by water
ballast, and, so far, the horizontal po-
sition of the vessel has been maintained
in several experiments.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, March 9.-The morn
ing light disclosed the dead bodies of
three negroes riddled with bullets, near
the heart of the city. The negroes had
been taken from Jail by seventy five
masked men and shot to death. The
crime for which this summary vengeance
was wreaked upon them was the am
.bushing and shooting down Saturday
night last of four deputy sheriffs, while
the officers were looking for negro for
whose arrest they had a warrant The
bodies which presented horrible sight
were brought to Walsh's undertaking
blishment this morning. In less
than fifteen minutes the place was sur
rounded by about twenty negroes, all
afraid to talk, however, ON. account of
proximity of the whites. An inquest
was held at 10 O'Clock and the bodies
were then sent to their homes. At 1915
word reached the city that the negroes
were assembling in large numbers at
The Curve. Judge Dubose Immediately
equipped $50 men with Winehesters and
they left the city for that locality.

the Chicago express, while passing from
one car to another, was blown from the
train against an embankment and sew
erely bruised. At Duluth the streets
are deserted and the street railroad COM
pany has abandoned all attempts to get
its line into operation. In Nebraska
the wind has been blowing at the rate
OF sixty-one miles an hour. Throughout
the state the gale has been severe, but
owing to no wires particulars cannot be
given. A special from Sioux City, Ia,
says the damage to property will amount
to several thousand dollars. In Dakota
the blizzard commenced at O'Clock and
still continues. 1t is the worst ever
known. No fatalities are reported but
some are apDrehended From all "a
ports the suffering in the country dis
tricts will be most intense. The worst
prevails in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The
weather is growing colder, and a high
wind is doing considerable damage In,

continues, accompanied by a rapid fall
in the thermometer. The weather Is
clear with no snow or rain. The
