diam Pacific railway seems to be get
ting its passenger trains through today
notwithstanding the strike of train dis
paTchers but the freight trains are said
to be badly tied up.
Toronto, Ont, Sept. 29.-Traff1c on the
Canadian Pacific railway Is greatly re-
arded today as a result OF the opera
tors strike. At many stations Where
the operators have gone out trains are
at a standstill and communication with
the dispatchers is in many cases pelns
carried on by telephone. On the west
erm portions of the division there IS a
blockade of trains which viii cause
heavy loss in case of perishable freight
Mr.. Leonard, district manager here,
SAYS qle has filled all the stations on his
divisions and many applications from
operators are still in Mr.. Leonard says
that the men who have gone out were
ill-advised and he expects all tine va
t-ant positions to be filled in a short
time.
Montreal, Sept. 29.-The Canadian Pa
cific railway trains move but very slow
" on account OF the strike. The COM
pany is going to serve all striking en-
pFoyes with notarial protests because
they have left their situations without
notice provided for IN their contracts.
The operators claim that the train dis
pGtcherS are with them.

NATIONAL BASEBALL LEAGUE
President Nick Young Sums up the Present
Status of the National Game.

Washington, Sept. 29.--Nick Young.
the president of the National Baseball
league, an an interview attributed the
fact that the championship race, so far
as the leaders Were concerned, was not
as Close and interesting near the finish
of the season in comparison with that
OF previous years, partly because of the
unfortunate circumstances for which
Mr. Tebeau of Cleveland was held re-
sponsible'' The occurrence incident
thereto President Young thinks, doubt
less worried Tebeau and his men as
they suspected that the outcome Of the
case might prove serious and jeopardize
their chances in the championship con-
test
This affair teaches the league one
lesson and that is, that something must
be done to stop the differences between
the umpires and players. On that
score, however, there Is not so much to
complain of as in previous years. The
umpires, on the whole, have given more
satisfaction to the players and public
than ever before, and I am heartily
pleased with their work. To be sure,
there were the usual differences between
a captain and an umpire, but nothing
serious resulted. These differences will
always occur for they are inspired by
the zeal of both teams in their desire to
win
Mr.. Young says the coaching ques-
ton and that affecting the Temple Cup
series Will come up for considera ton at
the next meeting. The league will
analyze the coaching question thorough
ly and will probably ask the opinion OF
some of the older players and umpires
before decisive action is taken.
Anticipating rumors or reduction in
the circuit from twelve to eight clubs,
President Young said: ''The twelve
club league will remain intact, not only
another season, but at least four sea-
sons besides The twelve club compact
was formed in 1892. and this is the fifth
year Of it's existence 1t has four more
years to run. Baseball has been more
successful under the twelve club regime
than any five years previous since base
ball became a. professional sport"
