NEW BALL LEAGUE.
The Minor Organizations Have Com
bined Against the National Body.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE representa-
tives of the minor base ball leagues held an
important meeting here today, at which
national organization was formed and steps
taken TO secure remedial action by the Ma
tional league on the grievances of the minor
bodies. The session was a secret one.
The following organizations were announced
comprising the New National body The
Western league, the Western association, the
New England league, the Southern league
and the Pennsylvania league. Patrick Pow
ers represented the Eastern league, and said
that when he made his report that body would
probably also fall in line. 1t was also given
out that the Virginia league was ready to
link its fortunes with the new organization.
Ban B. Johnson, president, secretary and
treasurer of the Western league, was then
elected president of the National association,
and J. c. Morse the secretary of the New
England league, was chosen secretary. Fur
ther than this the organization was not conf
pleted. The attending representatives claim
that the other minor base ball bodies would
have been represented but for misrepresenta-
tiOns of the aim of the meeting. 1t had been
represented that the meeting would be of an
incendiary nature; that the national agree
ment adopted at the February meeting would
be boted and that the National league prac-
tically would be defed. This was contra
dicted in the discussion at today's gather
ing.
The National agreement was taken UP point
by point. Some portions of this document
were regarded placing the minor leagues
in an unwarrantably subservieNt position
notably fixing the price to be paid for minor
league players at 5000. This was denounced
as unfair, but it is stated that there was
nothing said or done which was formally in
conflict with the National agreement or an
tagonstc to the National league.
Letters will be forwarded Immediately to
all the members of the National league and
to Secretary N. Z. Young asking that a
meeting of that league be called at once to
confer with the representatives of the minor
leagues. with a view to remedy these griev-
ances. The members of the association
are confident that the league will make con-
cessions to them. In they are finally
refused, however. it is said to be probable
that stems will be taken to bolt the National
league altogether and act independently of it.

WASHINGTON, March II. - JarneS
hlng, candidate for the st. Paul most.
maStership, called at the department
today and saw Postmaster General VIII.
son in regard to his candidacy. He
carried letter from Senator Nelson.
and 1t is said he had cordial recen.
ton. He found it too late, however.
TO accomplish much in the way of fur
thering his chances. The postmaster
general has finally concluded to bring
the case to speedy conclusion, and
has sent the case, with all the papers
connected with it, to the president for
his decision. 1t is believed that the
appointment will not be delayed for
more than ten days, although there is
a disposition among officials of the
postoffice department to delay the in
duction into office of a new postmaster
until after all the contemplated chang
es have been completed. William Lee
will probably receive the commission.
Senator Pottgieser and Capt, King
called on Senator Davis this morning.
at his committee room in the capitol.
They were accompanied by Congress-
man Kiefer. Capt King requested
Senator Davis to indorse his candidacy,
but the senator said that long time per-
sonal friendship could not count i'll
such case. He had declined to take
any part in the postoffice fight, and
he would not now recommend any OF
the Democratic candidates, although he
holds all of them in high regard

ment announces it as an exhibit of
half hundred of the newest models of

tachments and appliances, and the lat
est in wheeling suits and shoes. One
firm will exhibit it's bloomer girls in

full affairs. Music by string orchestra
