Base Ball Notes.
Arson in his seventeen years professional
player has played in 1,72s games. He went to
the bat III times, made 2, 561 safe hits and
general batting average of 1884. And yet the
cry is for young blood.
Mexican of Cleveland says there is danger Of
making the game too scientific. In his opinion
the charm of the game is its uncertainty.
John Garrison and Catcher Charley Bennett
are having great sport knocking down all kinds
of game. from deer to snow birds, at Williams
burg, Nan.
The Boston directors will sign their players
for six months contracts, from April to Octo-
Der l.
Rogers, the first baseman of the Portland,
Me-, club of last year. is in great demand.
Jerry Denny will play in the east again the
coming season.
The Boston club would be willing to ex-
change one of their catchers for Doyle Of the
New Yorks.
Capt Pat Tebeau predicts that Henry PETIT,
the new catcher, will prove as big find for
the Browns as did Jack Boyle, when he made
his reputation at the time of the accident to
Doc Bushong, in 1887.

EGYPT FORCED TO YIELD.
A Minister Obnoxious to England Cor
uelled to RESIGN

Minister Obnoxious to England Com
PEELED to Resign.
hurriedy convened cabinet council was
held yesterday afternoon in London. The call
for a conference caused decided sensation at
the clubs. where it was conjectured that action
was to be taken in regard to the sudden spirit
of independence displayed by the Khedive of
Egypt in changing his ministry without having
first obtained the consent of the British gov
eminent.
The council lasted an hour and ten minutes.
Afterward it transpired that the ministers had
discussed the Egyptian question in all its as
poets and had come to the decision that the
khedive must be firmly dealt with This was
taken to mean that the new Egyptian cabinet
must be dismissed and replaced by men who
are favorable to Great Britain. 1t is charged
that the new ministers owe their appointment
to their hostility to Great Britain and that the
khedive in selecting them influenced by
Russia and France.
A long telegram from Mr.. Cromer. British
representative at Cairo, was received at the
foreign Office in the afternoon. Soon afterward
the Russian and French ambassadors and the
German charge d'affaires called on Lord Rose
berry, the foreign minister, and somewhat
heated conversation took place. What said
during the visit has not TRANSFERRED. NJ. Wad-
QlnStOn, the french amDassad or. ana NJ. Staal,
the Russian ambassador, subsequently pro-
ceeded to Mr.. Gladstones residence on Down
ing street and were closeted with the prime
minister for some time. At 3:15 o'clock the
summons for a cabinet council at o'clock was
issued. So entirely unexpected was such a
summons that the greatest difficulty was ex-
perienced in finding the ministers.
kilograms and messengers were sent in every
direction, and 1t was not until some little time
after the hour fixed that the cabinet assembled.
Baron Herchell was not present, he having
started early in the dav for Windsor to visit
the queen. The council rose at 6:35 O'Clock,
after resolving unanimously to treat the khe-
dive with the utmost firmness.
The ministers decided to inform him in dis
tinct manner that his position as the ruler of
Egypt depends upon the good will of Great Brit
ain, andthat the British government will refuse to
recognize the reactionary ministry that he has
appointed. 1t is believed that Mr.. Cromer's
message attributed the khedive's action to con-
certed Russian, French and Turkish intrigues.
Mr.. Cromer informed the khedive that Great
Britain expected to be consulted by the
Egyptian government in all the important
steps proposed to be taken by it. and especially
changes in the ministry. The British govern
ment. he added, would never sanction the ap-
pointment of Fakheir Pasha. 1t is we'll
known fact that Fakheir Pasha is opposed TO
the English occupation of Egypt. Subsequent
to the interview with Mr.. Cromer the khedive
held consultation with Nubar Pasha and Riaz
Pasha.

Adams Street Second Hand
Store.

ties said they believed that be was Il
professional sneak thief.

with the prisoner and learned That tine
goods, which had been stolen, were dis.
posed of al the second hand clothing
store Of Joseph Krswifz. No. 4 Adams

under surveiliance for some time. but
