Washington: Arrived here last night; troops comfortably encamped; have been received with greatest enthusiasm and rejoicing; good order prevails everywhere. Shall raise flag tomorrow in presence of troops and citizens. Treasury empty, and only means of replenishing it is a system of taxation almost to- verge of confscation.

 That after the passage of this act all soldiers homes and other institutions main- tained by the government for the maimed, erippeld and needy soldiers and sailors of the United States shall be open to all sol diers and sailors of the civil war of 1S61- 65, upon the same terms and without dis elimination as to whether they were en- listed upon the side of the union or the confederacy."

ORIOLES SOLD TO
 BROOKLYN CLUB Baltimore's Best Players Will be TraeSferred to Former City. MAGNATES HARD AT WORK Minneapolis Secures Abbatachio from Philadelphia and George Smith
 from St. Louis-Talk of Two
 Eight Club Leagues.
MAGNATES HARD AT WORK

New York, December 16.-The fourth days session of the annual meeting of the na- tional baseball magnates was not begun until long after noon today. All sorts of ru- mors are in circulation as to how many clubs will form the circuit in 1899, but it is the general impression that a twelve club league schedule will be formulated and that no change of any importance in this line will take place within two years.
 The Philadelphia question of only paying to the visiting teams 1211 cents per head for each person that enters the Philadelphia gorunds is bound to be productive of long and wordy wrangle. From all appearance the meeting will not close until tomorrow evening. and it Is quite possible that the session may last until the beginning of next week.
 Although official confirmation cannot be obtained, it is pretty well established fact that deal has been consummated that the best players of the Baltimore club are to be drafted to the Brooklyn club. The play CTS involved in the transfer are Kelly, Keeler, Jennings, McGann, Demontreville, Joe Corbett, Al Maui and McJames. This will naturally weaken the Orioles, who will drop to near the bottom of the list pro- Vlueu that the Baltimore cluD IS StlIl re- tained in the National league The state ments to the effect that two leagues of eight clubs each will be formed for the com- ing season has been revived again, and those who ought to know are very positive that it will be brought into effect
 Deals were made today by which the Min neapolis club secured the services of Sec ond Baseman Abbatachio from Philadelphia and Short Stop George Smith from St. Louis. Both men were purchased. but the amount of money paid was not made pub- lie.
 The first business to be taken up by the board of arbitration today was the question of territorial rights for the Newark. N J., and Hartford, Conn.,, clubs, each of which has asked for membership in the Eastern league.

 Savannah

Savannah, December 16.-President Mc- Kinley will be greeted here tomorrow by a joint delegation from the local camps of Confederate camps and the G. A. R. This will be the first occasion on which the two bodies have acted together. It is in res. sponse to the presidents speech in Atlanta in which he paid tribute to the dead heroes of the confederacy and advocated that hereafter the graves of the dead of the civil war should be considered as the rest ing places of American heroes, without dis tinction as to the color of their uniform
 Calls for meetings of Hancock post, G. A. R., and the Confederate Veterans were pub- lished this afternoon. It was intended that the organizations would meet the president together under the stars and stripes. The. meeting was called to be held in the hall of the Confederate Veterans. Tonight ex- union and ex-confederate soldiers met to- gether and passed resolutions commenting the presidents utterances and pledging hearty sympathy. The call was too late for full meeting, but it was resolved that the veterans would call upon the president in body during his visit and assure him of their concurrence in his suggestion and ap- preciation of the spirit which suggested 1t.

Macon, Ga December 16.-Abner Taylor, a white man, was hanged here today at noon for the murder of his wife, The ex- ecution was priviate, even the newspaper reporters being excluded.

 Since Taylor has been in jail he has been constantly trying to commit suicide, his last attempt being made this morning at 4:30 by endeavcring to dash his brains out against the cement floor of his cell. He declared he had been converted, and met death without hinching.
