anybody. Van Haltren is tine other new
man. Van Haltren failed to give satisfac-
ton in Pittsburg and Baltimore. but Man
ager Ward has the greatest confidence in
his ability to play great ball. Westervelt
the pitcher, has made a success Of curylng
against amateur batsmen, but, like Muir
ply, he is an experiment. As regards
Clarke, the new pitcher secured from the
Erie club, opinion is divided.
over in Brooklyn but little change has
been made in the team. Broutlfers and
keeler have gone and Foutz Will play first
base regularly. Either Shindle or Gilbert
will play third. Treadway will look after
left field. and Lachance will be given fair
trial behind the bat Can't. FoutZ saws he
is not doing much talking, but his team
will surprise some Of the aspirants for pen,
nant honors
The PittsburSs made many changes dur
ing last season, but at the close of the cam.
paign had gathered together a club that
was considered good enough, In their opIn-
ion, to win the pennant of 1894. They have
an organiza ton in every way superior t
the one that began the last struggle. 1t is
strong in the batteries and in batting and
fielding, but is deficient in base running
and is not as well balanced an organization
as either Boston or Cleveland.
Boston was considered weak In the box
last season, and il must be admitted that
the present pitching force Is not such as e
inspire the most implicit confidence in its
admirers.
The Philadelphia club is one well calcu.
lated to inspire terror. With Cross played
at third, to improve the hitting Of the club
which is very likely, and Clements doing 10y
far most of the catching, the club will be as
strong in the batting department as it was
last season. Haddock was always good
batsman, and he will still further help the
club in stick work. Manager Irwin has de-
termined to have his men on the Gield in tho
best of condition. His greatest want now
is captain, but it is likely that he vii
supply any want in this direction by placing
himself on the side lines.
The Baltimore club started to strengthen
the team toward the end of last season
when BrOdie was engaged. Then Brouth
ers, Keller, Bonner and Baker We're Sc
cured. The organizati ton is about the young
est and lveliest of all. II Bonner comes
anywhere near realizing the many good
things said of him he will be a great &C
QUESTION. Patting was the weak point OF
the club last season, but 1t promises 10 b'
a feature this year. Brouthers is by nc
means a back number as far as stick work
is concerned. and he will help the CLUB moi
a little. Baltimore is a good base BAH city
and Manager Hanlon promises to make tn,
club the biggest success financially that ha!
ever been known in that city.
President Hart of the Chicago club re-
allied that something had to be done L
improve his club. and last season bestrret
himself to add to its strength. Though tn,

Players Engaged by the Base Ball
!, Clubs This Year.
OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SEASON
New York, Cleveland and Boston in
the Lead.
WHERE THE LOCALS STAND

From the present outlook base ball this
wear will be on the boom. Since the broth
erhood fight of 1890 the teams have made
but little money to speak of, but last sea-
son nearly all made expenses, and some
had a surplus at the end Of the year, says
the New York Times.
New York once more has team that II
can Justly feel proud Of. When the G!ah's
of half a dozen years ago were moving
down everything before them In me base
ball world New York was The best base
ball city in the country, and this year the
metropolis bids fair TO again take her
place.
Manager Ward has an aggregation OF
base ball talent that ought 30 compare IA
vofably with any nine in the country. Inc
most important addition has been that OF
Charley Farrell, the well-known catcher
The latter. besides being a brilliant BACK
stop and an excellent thrower, Is one or the
hardest hitters in the profession. Iarreh
will be the proper man to catch ttusle,
whose effectiveness has been marred some-
what for the want of a suitable receiver.
This. he claims, is the cause of his falling
off since Buckley left the club Meakin, a
good pitcher, will be an improvement over
Baldwin, who has been released. Little
Murphy has been engaged to take Fuller S
place at short, but many believe that popu-
lar shorty" will be seen stopping hot
grounders in his old position. Murphy as a
player on the Yale College team scored a
big success, but it remains to be seen If he
can hold his end up in the professional
ranks, There is a possibility that Murphy
will be placed at third base and Davis sent
to the outfield to strengthen one Of the
weak positions there. This Is Davis regu-

The Italian minister of foreign affairs,
Baron Blanc, is comforting with the Italian
ambassador, Baron Fava, as to the means
o. establishing colonies of Italian emf
grants in the United States. 1t is proposed
that steps be taken to do away with the
necessity of OBTAINING the emigrants at
the ports OF arrival, the idea being that
they should be promptly forwarded to their

the hands of those who fatten upon the
helpless condition of many of the Italians
