For q month we will be without any league
games. This il the time for the amateur teams
to make hay. Unfortunately, amateur base
ball seems to be conducted on loose business
methods-in Washington Mt least. An instance
was recently seen. The Princeton College team
came down here two weeks ago today. Without
opposition the nine should draw 1900 persons,
for they undoubtedly play crack game. Then,
too, local pride in the team they meet here
would give interest to the game. They stopped
here on their way to Charlottesville, where
they we're going to play the University OF Viz,
ginia. The consequences was that they had
only . beggarly array Of spectators, for every
one, of course, wanted to see the Nationals
play the New York; On Monday, whea the
Princetons had another game scheduled here,
it rained. The consequence was that We missed
seeing them play and they secured few Wash
ington dollars Had they gone to Charlottes-
vile first and arranged to play here on their
return they would have had NO opposition.
And 90 with other college teama II, instead OF
CONFLICTING with the lesgus games, they could

MINERS WEAKENING.

The Big Two Weeks Strike in tho British
Isles May Not Happen. After An-Some
Localities That Will Not Take Part In
Any Event.
LONDON, March 5-The outlook in the
coal trade and among consumers is some
what brighter to-day than it has been for
several days past, and it appears now as if
the Miners Federation might recede some
what from its determination not to accept a
penny reduction in wages paid to miners.
1t also appears probable that the gigantic
''strike" which it was proposed to begin on
March IL, or rather the two weeks cessation
from work which was to begin on that day
in order to restrict the output and thus
compel consumers to pay such an advanced
price for coal as would warrant the mine
owners in making no reduction in wages,
will not take place.
1t would not be safe, however, to make a
positive statement that events will follow
this course. Large numbers of manufac-
turers have announced their decision to close
their works rather than to pay the increased
prices for coal, and the effect of this has
been to bring about an abatement in the
demand, which at one time caused almost a
state of panic. The Durham miners have
held a meeting, at which disposition was
plainly shown to accept the masters offer of
s per cent reduction in wages, instead of
the larger reduction. as the master first
proposed. If the Durham miners decide
finally to accept this per cent reduction, it
is probable that the miners in several other
counties will do likewise
1t was at first thought that all the colliers
in Great Britain would join in restricting
the output, but it is now known that the
South Wales men, who have had a crisis of
their own recently, will continue work. So
with the Kinross men, who also had fiut-
ter few weeks ago on their own account,
and many collieries in Stafford and War
wick will also continue work.

He 1magines the Crew Are Firing His
Ship, and Attempts Suicide
LONDON, March "a strange story
comes from the island of ST. Helena The
British ship Regent. Captain Treadwell,
which sailed from Calcutta November 80
for New York, arrived at st. Helena Feb
ruary z and reported to the authorities that
some time before Captain Treadwel had
locked himself in his cabin and had dis
charged several shots from a revolver. 1t
does not appear that an entrance was forced
into the cabin, or that any particular effort
was made to discover the reason for the
shooting.
The mate took charge of the ship and ran
for ST. Helena Upon arrival there, he
gave the report abo-e mentioned. The
port officials who boarded the ship broke in
the door of the captains cabin and found
him lying insensible. An examination re-
veaIed the fact that he had tour wounds in
his head and body. After regaining con-
sciousness, he stated that the crew of the
Regent, headed by the chief mate, had
mutinied and threatened to kill him. He
believed it was their intention to fire the
ship and then abandon her, leaving him on
board to perish. The captains improbable
