Hnnna's Mission to Washington.

CLEVELAND, o., Dec. 3.-Chairman
Hanna expects to start for Washington to-
morrow noon and it is believed that on
the result of the talk with Senator Sher-
man, which he expects to have. will de-
pend the filling Of two places in the Cabinet
of President-eect Mckinley. While Mr..
Hanna will not carry with him offer
of the secretaryship of state to Senator
Sherman, he Will at least be commissioned
to ask the Senator II he would accept the
place if it was offered to him. 1t is said
that MIR. Hanna was offered the treasury
portfolio while at Canton yesterday and
that he does not desire to accept 1t. His
decision is said to have been withheld until
he discovers whether Senator Sherman
would accept a Cabinet place. thus leaving
the way open for Mr.. Hanna to go to the
Senate. which he would much prefer to a
Cabinet place. Mr.. Hanna has declined to
discuss his visit to Canton, but some of
his close friends who claim to understand
the situation of affairs are less reticent

a high-tariff man." he said, "and believe
that this country needs vigorous protec-
work
There is an unusual number of callers
at the Mckinley home to-day. Aside from
the congressman en- route to Washington
and other prominent men OF the party who
called to see the President-elect there was
and people who merely dropped in to shake
hands with the major. In the midst Of
conference with Senator Thurston, ex-Rep-
resentative Mason and others the major
found time to most cordially greet all of
these visitors. Representative r. w. Tay-
Tor, of this district, was among the visit
ors. He has been in Washington a short
session. He said he had no official infor-
nation on the tariff question, the logic of
the situation seeming to point to an extra
session.
Nelson Dingley jr, Of Lewiston, Me-,
chairman of the ways and means commit
tee and author Of the Dingley revenue bill
arrived from Cleveland at los D. m. He
was accompanied by his son. T.. n. Dingley
proprietor of the Kalamazoo Telegraph.
They were met at the depot by attaches of
the Mckinley household and went direct TO
the residence. Here lunch was had. follow
ing which consultation was held on the
pertinent question of the hour.
Mr.. Dingley will remain in the city until
Tomorrow owing to an attack of bronchial
trouble. The best information obtainable
tonight Is that the conferences to-day re-
lated largely to congressional matters. No
one knows the President-elect's mind on
the subject, but the consensus OF opinion
of those here now, as well as earlier, is
that the Dingley bill cannot be put
through the short session, and that the
conditions now seem TO make special
session probable.
Senators Mitchell and Mcbride and Rep
resentative Herman of Oregon, arrived at
noon They are on their way to Washing
ton for the winter, and stopped off here to
pay their respects to Major Mckinley. Mr.
Herman is accompanied by his wife and
daughter and little son. While here they
were the guests of Judge j. +. Fawcett
When seen by a reporter Senator Mcbride
said: There is nothing political in our
visit to Major Mckinley. 1t is purely of
social nature. We would be proud to have
a man from oregon in the Cabinet, but as
yet the sentiment has not crystallized on
any one person. There has been much talk
of Senator Mitchell for place in the Cab
met but don't think he has given it any
consideration himself We in Oregon would
rather have him go back to the Senate
again.
Stewart L. Woodford of New York, and
A. j. Daugherty. of Peoria, Ill, arrived in
the afternoon and called at the residence OF
the President-elect. Mr.. Daugherty is a
member of the Illinois Legislature.
The bright sunshine and good air OF this
morning afforded Major and Mrs. Mckinley
opportunity for a drive about the city,
which the rougher weather of the earlier
days in the week prevented. They returned
from a drive much refreshed. and expressed
themselves as having enjoyed it very much
Mrs. Mckinley is. apparently enjoying as
good health as falls to her lot and seems
to have regained the strength lost during
the illness following the election.

The Promise That a New League
Holds Out to San Fran.
cisco.
GROUNDS ON FOLSOM STREET.
Plans to Put Six or Eight Teams in
the Field Within Two
Months.

"The California Baseball League was
organized last night and teams made up
of the well-known players now in this
State will begin a series OF games about
June l.
D. R. McNeill is president of the new
organization, A. S. Blake, who was for
merly in the New England League, is Sec
retary, and F. A. Dunbar is the treasurer.
Others interested in the venture are G. A.
Johnson of San Jose, J. P. Stowell of Los
Angeles and H. N. Wilson of this City.
Mr.. Blake, acting in the interests of the
prospective league, has secured the
grounds bounded by Folsom, Fifteenth,
Sixteenth and Harrison streets, and last
night he presented to the league his report
of the lease.
This field is known as the Mechanics
Institute property.
Mr.. Blake announced that work on the
improvement of the ground and the erec-
ton Of fence will be Immediately begun.
His measurement of the field is 560x520
feet. One advantage is that the place is
sheltered from wind and fog, and another
is that it may be easily reached. The
field is regarded as we'll adapted for use as
a bail ground.
Rube Levy and all the old-time players
that remain here will be pnt on the league
list, but no attempt to enter into competi-
ton for Well-known players outside of
California will be made.
The cities to put teams in the field are
enumerated as follows: San Francisco,
Oakland, San Jose, Sacramento, Stockton,
Fresno, Los Angeles. 1t is believed that
one or two other cities may also enter the
league.
A minor league to develop baseball
talent will be favored.
! Mr.. Blake and Mr.. Dunbar were ap-
pointed a committee to urge the Southern
Pacific Company to establish stauon at
Sixteenth and Harrison streets.
The projectors say they are confident
hat baseball will pay here this season.

For several weeks past the literary COM

At recent committee meeting in the

MCREERY'S BLOCK.
Handsome Property at McAllister and
Baker Streets to Change Ownership.

Handsome Property at McAllister and
Baker Streets to Change Ownership.
The handsome block at Baker and Nc
Allister streets, owned by A. B. McCreery
for the past forty years, is to be sold.
Property owners on the panhandle and
the public at large are to be congratulated
on the liberal policy of A. B. McCreery,
which is to sell his unmpr land as
soon as there is a demand ON the part OF
the public for it,
-Four years ago Mr.. McCreery owned half
q dozen blocks on the park panhandle. In
stead of holding this property and thus re-
tarding the growth OF the City in that di-
recton, he has sold land to the value of
$40c, 200, upon which improvements have
been erected which have added to the as
sessment-roll upward of 5000, 600.
This is the last OF the McCreery blocks,
and it will be sold at auction by his agents,
Baldwin & Hammond, on the 10th inst.
The terms will be one-fourth cash. AS
there is considerable building now going
on in this section, it is safe to predict that
in short time this now vacant block will
be graced by number of Improvements.

the law was invoked, and Justice Kerri-
gan was asked to give judgment for
plaintiff.
The bailiff's call brought no response
and judgment was entered against his
Lordship with all the solemnity the occa-
sion warranted. Now the collie ctor is look
ing for something with which to satisfy
the judgment.
OF cou. Sc, he could attach Cliftons fur
niture and bric- a-brac at the Maison Richie,
but that would be cruel, considering how
much his Lordship loves the. comforts of
home fireside and fender, and the col
lector is hoping to meet his debtor and re-
ceive his S67 and costs with all that free
handed generosity for which Clifton is
noted.
If the worst comes to the worst, how
ever, the aid of the Sheriff will be invoked,
and some of his Lordship's treasured be-
loneings may find their way into the
storehouse of Mr.. Whelan.

John Nagle was another passenger, and
he was notab bic from the fact that he had
sack of diamonds with him. AS soon as
the Mariposa left the dock he gave them
into the custody of the purser, and about
once day he demanded to see them in
order to be sure that none were missing.
There was no loss. and when the vessel

CLIFTON MUST PAY.
Judgment Obtained for the Price of
Polo Breeches for the
Hunt Ball.

Lord Talbot Clifton must pay for that
pair of snow white polo breeches that he
ord cred from a tailoring establishment in
this City several months ago.
Talbot's wardrobe was deficient in
neither garments when the Hunt bali came
around, and his valet was sent with his
measure-the same cut little figure on
account of the bagginess of the trousers
to procure the missing articles forthwith.
The valet got the pants, but the firm
failed to get its money, though collector
called persistently at "me luds" apart

After carrying out the old saying that

it ought, the firm decided to sue. and
placed the matter in the hands of a col
