On Monday Of next week the Eastern
League will probably hold general
meeting in Buffalo. This day was chos-
en- because Of the fact that on the same
date a committee of the Eastern League
was to have met similar committee
of the Western League, for the pur-
pose of comforting as to certain matters
ns via! concern to each of them. On
tb;. occasion it is more than probable
tina. some definite conclusion as Ia the
Eastern League circuit of next season
will be reached.

There IS an ugly story in circulation
at Boston among the members of the
League of American Wheelmen. The
rumors are to the effect that certain
delegates to the convention of the
League, to be held in February at st.
Louis. have been offered the payment
of their expenses To that city and re
turn if they would pledge themselves
to vote for Isaac b. Potter for presi-
dent of the League. The offer is said
to come not from Potter direct, but
through the racing syndicate which
has been close TO the throne lately IN
the metropolis, and which has appar-
entity been able to violate the racing
rules of the League with impunlty and
freedom from punishment.

The members of the '97 crew of the
University of Pennsylvania met last
evening and. after accepting the res
ignation of Captain Sam Boyle, elected
unanimously William II. Howell cap
tain for the coming season. Howell is
a member Of the '99 medical class, and
has rowed two years in the Varsity

steadiest men on the crew and he will
undoubtedly prove a good captain. He
is very popular among the students and
his election gives universal sarisfac-
ton.

A meeting was held at Princeton last
night Of the men who played in the last
princeton game to discuss plans
for next year. The alumni had express
ed dissatisfaction with Trainer John
McMasters. considering him largely re-
sponsible for the condition of Prince
toms representatives in the crucial con-
test of the season. The team, however,
were of the opinion that the fault was
not alone that of McMasters, and it was
decided to retain his services.
1t was expected that the captain of
last seasons team, Garrett Cochran,
would accept the position of head
coach, but he has decided to accept an
offer of the University of California and
coach the eleven of that institution.
Langdon Lea, of the '95 team may be
Princeton's head coach. The plan of
having two or three coaches for each
man of the team, as was the case last
year during part of the season, will
be abandoned.

Word comes from Chicago that Cor
bett and Referee Siler have finally come
to more direct accusations in relation
to the Carson affair. and if Corbett is
unwise in continuing his newspaper ar
guments he viii be apt to secure the
worse end OF the argument. This is the
belief of those who heard the state
ment of Martin Julian. when in Chi
ca go recently. to the effect that If ST.
Ter once broke loose he would tell some
things that would startle the fistic
world
That Siler would never referee a con-
test for Corbett again was told by a
signed statement of William A. Brady
some weeks ago. In that statement
Brady declared that COrDett could not
have won at Carson with an AK, and
that the only chance he had to secure
a decision was to knock Fitzsimmons
out.
This statement drew out the reply Of
Siler that before the fight Corbett told
him CSiler) that there were 500 boys
from California who would be present
at the ring-side and who would not
stand for a defeat OF the Californian
unless it was Ion the level" This in
timidation caused Siler no uneasiness
and he even declared that 5000 guns
would not affect his decision. The talk,
however. came to the attention of Gov
ernor Sadler. who offered Siler military
protection, which. however, was de-
clined.

Yale men say they Il race with

promises whatever to The Ithacans re-
garding future races.
Yale's reply gives Cornell an oppor-
tunity TO reconsider il she desires to
do so. Ii Cornell refuses to accept
Yale's unconditional invitation to go
To New London. then there will be no
race between Yale and Cornell this
year
What arrangements Harvard will
make with Cornell for a race this year
Yale does not know. Harvard has
challenged. and Cornell has accepted,
but the place for the race has not been
named.
AS Harvard has agreed TO meet Yale
at New London il therefore seems pro-
bable that Harvard will ask Cornell to
go to New London also, and that Cor
nell may accept, and thus a triangular

Puzzled What to Do With Bryan

William Jennings Bryan has written a letter to President Mckinley offering his services to the government in any position in which they may be useful The letter is brief but courteous, and asks for any assignment the president may see fit to give him. The president is a good deal puzzled as to what he ought to do. He does not wish to ignore MT. Bryans patri- otic offer or decline his services, as that might seem ungraeious but there is none but military appointments in his gift, and MT. Bryan's experience and tastes do not run that way. He might be nominated as a brigadier-general. but if given such an appointment he would have to be place over men who are much better qualified by education and experience to command than he, and of course the president could not offer him any lower position. It is probable that in acknowledging the receipt of MT. Bryan's offer the president will ask him to indicate the capacity in which he would prefer to serve. ss5,,

REDS RETURN
 HOME TODAY Begin a Series of Games With Charleston Sea Gulls. THEIR EXCELLENT RECORD Should Cause a Large Crowd to Witness the Contest this Afternoon n-Houseman
 Will Join the Team Here
 Game Yesterday.
LEAGUE STANDING

The Reds begin a series of three games at West End park this afternoon, having as their opponents the mighty Sea Gulls of Charleston. The Coal Barons made splendid record on their recent trip and a large crowd should welcome them home.
 Switzer will most probably occupy the slab for the locals. and the Reds stand an excellent chance of winning the game. Houseman, the heavy hitting outfielder will jim the locals upon their arrival home. and will probably be in the game this af- ternoon. His presence will greatly strengthen the team and fast ball is ex- pected.
 The locals remain at home for twelve games, after which they go to Mobile and New Orleans, returning here for fifteen more games.
 Young Ballow. catcher signed by Chi- cago for this season has been farmed to Charleston by Manager Burns and will join the latter team here.
