THE WESTERN LEAGUE
WHAT MAY BE DONE AT To-DAy.s
MEETING IN CHICAGO.
Possibility that Toledo and Columbus

Rapids and Terre Haute.
speclal to the indianapolis, journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal,
CHICAGO, Sept. 25.-AIost of the Western
League managers assembled here to-day
in advance of the. annual meeting that
convenes tomorrow. One or more changes
are to be made in the circuit, and the
chances are that five or ten years COM
pact will be entered into. by those COM
posing the circuit when il is revised. 1t is
on this account that applicants for fran
chises are particularly anxious. Since the
National League entered into a ten years
compact in 1891 it has been impossible to
force out clubs that are members of that
organization, and Western League mana
gers recognize that with such assurances
behind them they can go to expenses that
they would not dare undertake otherwise.
Terre Haute will certainly give way either
to Columbus or Omaha, most probaly the
former Brush, of Indianapolis and one or
two others would like to freeze out Grand
Rapids, but there is disposition to stand
by Manager Ellis, and il Grand Rapids
does go the franchise, whatsoever city is
chosen. is likely to go to him. Mr.. Brush
thinks Indianapolis, Columbus, Detroit and
Toledo in the east and Milwaukee, Kansas
City. st. Paul and Minneapolis in the
west would make the best circuit. A Min
neapolis syndicate. backed by Messrs.
Goodnow and Haynes, wants TO get the
present franchise away from the Murphys,
but the latter do not want to sell, and
from the sentiments expressed by most of
the delegates it is not likely they will be
forced out. This is one of the questions to
be decided tomorrow.
The delegates here are Manning and
Whitfield, of Kansas City; Brush. Watkins
and Colt, of Indianapolis; Long. of Terre
Haute; Ellis, of Grand Rapids. and MUIR
ply, of Minneapolis. President Johnson
and the Milwaukee, ST. Paul and Detroit
representatives will be here tomorrow.

THE RuBEs COME TO TOWN.
They Saw the Anderson E1ks Defeat
the Local Odd Fellows.

Yesterday afternoon several hundred peo-
pie saw the ball team from the Odd Fell
lows lodges of this city defeated by the
team representing the Elks of Anderson
by score of "a to 8 in a six-inning game
played at the ball park. The Anderson
men were not only the best all-round play
ers, but they had in rMillspaugh the best
pitcher. The main feature of the game
was the number of tralnps and backwoods
people who attended the game and made
themselves conspicuous. Such they APP
peared to the audience until 1t became
noised about that they were members Of
the Elks Lodge from Anderson in disguise.
A band from Anderson, with the members
dressed in outlandish costumes, furnished
music for the afternoons
Following are the positions occupied by
the players: Indianapolis Odd Fellows

rather weak. One Anderson man tried to
slide to third before he had run half the
distance from second. The only home run
OF the game was made by Cassidy, short
stop, for the Odd Fellows, although there
were several other long drives which would
have been good for four bases had the rum
ners thought SO. During the entire game
the "rubes'' were in evidence. One very
large man, dressed in ragged clothes and
with wig of unkempt hair, wandered
around over the diamond and amused the
crowd. He is said to be one of the leading
Elks in Anderson About the third inning

stood around longingly. watching the good
things disappear. If the old woman had
removed her sunbonnet 1t would have been
apparent that she had "a heavy gray mus
tache.
The interest in the game began to lag
after the fourth inning, and there were few
people remaining at the close of the fifth.
Accordingly, 1T was agreed that the game
should be called at the end of the sixth
inning. At the close of the game the score
by innings was as follows
