CHANCE THAT INDIANAPOLIS MAY
ESCAPE JOHNsON'S BAN.
Two Eight-CIub Leagues Proposed by
j. Earl Wagner-GOssip About
Exchange of Players.

NEW YORK Dec. 16.-That something of
a startling nature was to be sprung during
the meeting of the National Baseball League
was an open secret and to-day when the
announcement was made that the Brooklyn
and Baltimore clubs had amalgamated no
one was surprised. The deal had been talked
of frequently during the week and it was
thoroughly discussed in the lObbies of the
hotel by the baseball men. When the mat
ter was announced as a certainty it was
generally regarded as "A great boom for
baseball in Great New York and by some
it was considered the forerunner of many
changes which will take place in the near
future. AS a business venture the deal is
regarded as a promising one financially for
both clubs Neither has been making money
of late. On the contrary, they have been
losing. Close tigurers estimate that the new
blood which is to be infused into the
'Bridegrooms" will make the Brooklyn ball
grounds a much greater attraction than
heretofore for the rooters and that a hand
some balance VIII be placed to the credit
OF the Brooklyn club at the end of next
season. BY the terms of amalgamation the
respective clubs shall pool all gains and
losses. Those who figure a profit on
Brooklyn say that this will more than
counterbalance the Baltimore losses next
October.
The players who are spoken of as being
likely to be transferred from Baltimore to
Brooklyn are Kelly. Keller, Jennings, Nc
Gam, Demonreville, Corbett. Hughes.
Clarke, Maui and McJames Manager Ned
Hanlon viii have Sharge of the brooklyn
aggregation and William Barnie is talked of
as his successor in Baltimore.
May persons who claim to have inside
information are of the opinion that there
will be two leagues of eight clubs each un-
der the governing hand of the National
League by next season. They say the
tWelve-club schedule has been found to be
unwieldy, thata ten-club circuit would
prove as difficult a proposition and that
eight OF the leading clubs should be brought
together in a major league and the four re-
naming should form the nucleus of a minor
tody.
Under the ten-year agreement, which has
yet two years 10 run, 20 club can resign
nor can 1t be forced out of the league ex-
cept by unanimous vote. With Clevela nd

Candidates for Governor of the ISL

Land of Freedom.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 16-The steamer
Gaelic arrived to-day from Hong-Kong and
Yokohama via Honolulu and brings the fol-
lowing news from the latter place Ynder
date of Dec. 8:
Three candidates are being persistently
mentioned for the governorship of the ISL
ands. They are S. NJ. Daman, Harold M.
Sewall and President Dole Each candidate
has a host of supporters. A petition is be-
ing circulated among the natives praying
President Mckinley not to appoint to the
position of Governor any person connected
with the recent revolution in the island.
Another petition of startling nature is about
to be circulated asking France to interfere
with the present government and to restore
the monarchy.
President Dole will soon leave for Wash
ington to be present when the Hawaiian
commission present their report to Con-
gress. w. A. Kinney will sail on the 9th
for Washington to represent the Hawaiian
planters during the debate upon territorial
matters in Congress. He goes purely as an
attorney and not as lobbyist in any sense.
AT a meeting of the Planters Association

in Finland and the laborers offered to COM

the Quakers natives of Russia. The colony,
of which seven thousand men, women and
children are available for Hawaii. have been
practically hunted to earth by the Russian
authorities for years. An important clause
in their creed forbids taking life for any
reason whatsoever. This units them for
duty as soldiers and the Russian government
has been unable to induce many of them to
bear arms The society which addresses the
local planters was formed in England for
the express purpose of taking these Quakers
away from Russia and giving them start
in some other country. A colony sent to

From reports it is quite evident that the

minor league. That the magnates are I'M
willing to buy out any club and saddle the
league with a heavy debt is generally be-
lieved. and those who urge the double league
of eight teams each claim that this is the
only possible and practicable solution of a
twelVe-club schedule. The matter has not
been discussed at any of the sessions thus
far, but it may be taken up tomorrow.
1t was said to-day that j. Earl Wagner,
of Washington, favored a nonsunday-play-

YEARNING FOR TROUBLE.
Spanish Soldiers Anxious to XIII Of a
Few Hundred Cubans.

HAVANA, Dec. H. via Key West, Fla,
Dec. 1.-THE people CT Havana Spanish and
Cuban, long for American occupation, the
Cubans because they live in unrest and fear,
the Spanish residents because they are to
stay here after the Spanish soldiers depart
and they do not wish the Cubans to become
further embittered. General Arolas the
military governor of the province of
Havana, is regarded by the Cubans as be-
ing responsible for the violent conduct of
individual officers and privates 1t is as
serted that the feeling i'll Arolas's battalion
is that attacks on Cubans who give the
least provocation will not be punished
Captain General Castellanos keenly regrets
the disorders which have occurred and
wishes that the last days of Spanish rule
here may be peaceful as he mas many cares
TO occupy his attention. The talk among
the junior Spanish officers and privates is
that they ought to mark their retirement
from the islard by killing five hundred of
the insurgents. They may be said to go
about with their fingers on the triggers of
their revolvers and yearning for trouble
The Cubans in bye streets and in the
suburbs are often insolent. and consequently
further trouble may not be unlikely.
