Deny 1t.

BOSTON, September PA special to a
morning paper from Louisville. KY, says:
"A report is current here to the effect that
the entire Boston League team has signed
with the New York National Association
for next year. The players had left for
Cincinnati when the report was received,
but Manager Selee, who remained here
said. so far as lie was concerned, he had
verbally agreed to remain with the Bos-
tons next year.
Mr.. Selee intimated that the Boston play
ers were dissatisfied with the MANAGEMENT,
and that they would have won the pennant
had 1t not been for the dissatisfaction of
the players. and that this same dissatisfac-
uon would cause wholesale desertions.
NEW YORK, September 24-Secretary

Giuo discredfts the report that the entire
Sostcn league team has signed with the
New York National Association club for
next year. as stated in a dispatch from
boston: That" said Mr.. Stackhouse, "is
impossible, as I understand the National
ASSOCIATION has fallen through Pat Pow

NEW YORK. September 24.-Wm. r.

morning at his office, 66 Broadway. and
asked about his position in regard 10 the
new base ball rumors of the proposed organ
IZation which have been floating in the air
FOR several days past
ihe only thing wish to say about this
matter is this, said Mr.. Wheeler Il nave
never been approached in any way or by
any one with regard to the formation of a
new association. l am highly indignant
over the use of my name in connection with
the scheme. and wish You to put me down
as saying that the use of my name was
entirely unauthorized. / have never dis
cussed with anybody the formation of a
new league.
Il don't believe. If there is such a scheme
on foot, that it amounts to much, or more
would have been heard of it by this time
The whole thing seems to me to be myth
ical.
In regard to my relati with the New
York club may say that they are just as
friendly as ever at present.

SAYS IT'S INDUSTRIOUS.
baroness Burtlett COutts On Action of
a Painters' Union.

LONDON, September 24.-The correspond
ence between Baroness Burdett Coutts and
the secretary of the London Painters
Trade Society has been published and is
attracting great attention and comment.
The secretary wrote that complaint had
been lodged against the baroness for al
lowing her stablemen at Brookffeld to
paint the stables instead of employing
Union painters to do the work.
The baroness in spirited reply, after
pointing out that Brookfield is the property
of her husband, denounces the 'monstrous
and intoierabfe oppres sion which the union
claims to have the right to practice and
which would deprive every workingman of
the right to work out his own advancement
by his own energy and robs him of the
brthright of personal liberty"
The newspapers generally denounce the
action of the union and point out the serv-
ices of the baroness to the working people
and how she has spent many years of her
life and large part of her great fortune
in their interests.

If Gen. Ezeta's object in coming to Wash
ington is, as reported, to intervene in behalf
of Col. Cienfuegos, who was held by Judge
Morrow for extradition on a charge of muir
der his visit is likely to prove fruitless.
While the Secretary of State is not abso-
lutely bound to grant extradition papers by
the action of United States commissioner
and court, his power to revise their find
ings is very rarely exercised, and only in
cases where 4 very strong case is made out

is regarded as very full and fair, and it is
extremely improbable that anything that
Gen. Ezeta can adduce will move the State

New York's Fish Market.

In all New York city there is only
one wholesale fish market. 1t has a
water and street frontage adjoining
the Fulton Ferry on the East River
side of the city, and it is directly op-
posite the famous old Fulton Market.
This season of the year is harvest
time in this industry, for when the
Lenten period comes there is a rush
of fishing smacks from all along the
upper Atlantic coast to the markets
dock. Thousands of crates and bar
rels of fish from the Great Lakes and
the far South arrive and the early
hours of the morning, especially on
Friday, with blockade Of streets for
a radius of quarter of a mile, take
on an activity that is supposed to
exist only in the summer when the
peach season is at hand, and the truck
farmers, with their teams and produce,
turn night into day, and swarm over
acres upon acres Of New York's streets.
More picturesque is this night mart

water side Of the market, packed and
wedged close in the dock, are the ice
coated vessels, the steamy vapor of
the river rising in jets in the open spa
ces between the smacks and score OF
more of temporary bridges running
from deck to deck and thence to tie
piers, over which the fisherman and
helpers, clad in oil-skin garb, rush the
cargoes from hold to market stalls
Some of the catch brought in is alive,
and is sent splashing and squilming
with much confusion, shouting and
calling, into the tanks that lie in the
river close up to the market. Some
of the catch is dead, frozen stiff, and
this is quickly transferred to troughs
and slabs and made presentable fol
sale. On the street side express wag-
ons push and crowd up in the snow
and slush, and the police have more
than they can do to straighten out the
tangle in the babel of shouting drivers

In China when a man owes a debt
and the money is wanted, all the
creditor has to do is simply to go and
stand in front of the debtors door and
weep, and the debtor hustles around
and gets the money and pays the bill
to avoid disgrace. In this, as In all
respects, American customs are moth
ing like those of China. Imagine one
trying to work the tear racket In this
country. 1t makes one laugh to thlnk
of it. A man might stand in front OF
a creditors door and shed enough to
water the streets of a town, but he
would never have the chance to
receipt the bill so far as shedding tears
are concerned. We merely mention
this as matter of history, not as a
suggestion for any of our readers to
try it, because the chances are they
will get knocked down with club
and want to hold us responsible tol
their injuries. One of our business
men says that allowing a single teal
to each house, he could not manu-
facture enough tears to go around II

COMPOUND ENGINES.
DECLARED TO Be OF GREAT AD.
VANTAGE FOR RAILROAD PURPOSES.

Concerning the question of the eco
nomlcal use of compound engines for
railroad purposes the Railroad CT
zette says: Two raj roads that have
been experimenting with compound
locomotives for the past two years
have reached the important conclusion
that in freight service the compound
locomotive, if reasonably well design
ed, will, without unusual care, effect a
saving In fuel of fully 40 per cent.
Most OF the old prejudice against the
compound mechanism Is gone; it has
been driven out by daily experience
with the devices, accomplished in
these two cases by shifting the com.
pound from one division of the road
to another, and finally leading to a
recommendation to the management
to consider the advisabiity of using
compounds hereafter. Using 20 per
cent. less fuel and water means less
labor in several directions, and some
considerable decrease in the cost of
repairs to the boilers. The Compound
Locomotive Committee, appointed by
the Master Mechanics Association
several years ago, must have been dis
continued last year, as there is no
announcement OF such a committee
in the list given In the last proceed
ing" Such committee would find
more to report upon this year than it
had last, and it is unfortunate that it
was discontinued. Upon the revival Of
locomotive building it is probable
that larger percentage of compounds
will DE built than ever before; and in
the near future the majority of all en-
gines to be used exclusively on grades
will undoubtedly be compounded, for
reasons that we have often set forth.

The EMERSON PIANO.

These instruments have enjoyed a
high reputation for more than forty
years. Are Bil'ian, and Musical in
Tone, and afford most beautiful ac-

tone having that rare sympathetic
quality which blends admirably with
the human voice. They arc durable,
being constructed of the best Mater
ials, by the Most Ski,lful Workmen.
They have earned an especial repu-
tation for Keeping in Tune, and also
for retaining in most remarkable de-
gree their original fulness of tone
never growing thin or wiry with age.
The Emerson Upright Pianos es.
