BROOKLYN AND BALTIMORE.
Base Ball Clubs Pool Their Finan'
ciaI Interests.

New York, Dec. 16.-That something of
a startling nature was to be sprung dur
ing the meeting of the National Base Bah
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 When
the matter was announced as a certainty,
it was generally regarded as a great boom
for base ball in Greater New York, and
by some IL was considered the forerunner
of many changes which will take place
in the near future.
AS a business venture the deal is re-
garded as a promising one financially for
both clubs, which have been losing money
of late. BY the terms of the amalgama-
ton, the respective clubs shall pool all
gains and losses. Those who figure a
profit on Brooklyn say that this viii. 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, DeMontreville, Clark Corbett,
Maui McJames and Hughes. Manager Ned
Hanlon will have charge of the Brooklyn
| aggregation, and William Barnie Is talked
of as his successor in Baltimore. Many per-
sons who claim to have inside information
are of the opinion that there will be two
| leagues of eight clubs each, under the
governing hand of the National League by
next season. Under the ten year agree
| ment which has yet two years to run, no
| club can resign nor can ID be forced out
of the league, except by unanimous vote.
With Cleveland going to st. Louis, and
| the Louisville club purchased by the
| league ten clubs would sim remain, and
of these it might be possible that Wash
ngton and Baltimore would, for a finan-
cial consideration drop into a minor
| league. The matter has not been discussed
at any of the sessions thus far, but 1t may
be taken up tomorrow.
1t was said to-day that j. Earl Wagner
| of Washington favored a non-Sunday
playing and a Sunday playing league, the
former TO be made up Of the New York
Boston, Philadelphia, Washington, Pitts
burg, Cleveland Detroit and Chicago
clubs, and the other to be composed OF
the Brooklyn, Philadelphia Athletic, Bal.
timore. Cincinnati, Chicago, st. Louis
Providence and Louisville or Indianapolis
clubs. Mr.. Wagner may make this propo
sition tomorrow, and IL Is generally ex
pecfed that some move will be made II
this direction before the meeting adjourns
The delegates were occupied to-day In
| discussing the Philadelphia agreement
which has just expired. BY It all visiting
clubs received 1917 cents for each persor
who entered the grounds during the las
six years and Col. John l. Rogers Is anx
ious that this agreement should be con
dnued. No agreement was reached.
The Philadelphia club bought Pitche
Frazer from the Louisville club to-day
but the price was not given out.

and for a very good reason-there is no
where else to stand. Only the Philippines

policy TO propose. THE Philippines are

ent from ours to be annexed, even if they
desired it," But Mr. Bryan has no propo-
sition to make as to what this country
should do with the islands. He leaves this

BRYAN ON IMPERIALISM.
Public Opinion Respecting the Lead

Washington Correspondence New York
Herald Qnd).
Prominent Democrats in Washington are
far from united in approving Mr. Bryan
utterances on expansion and in haifing him
as their leader for the campaign of 1909.
Many of those with whom l talked indl-
Gated very clearly that while they might
agree with Mr.. Bryan on the general sub
iect of expansion. they did not relish his
nutting himself forward and trying to take
the lead in formulating a policy for the
marty out of the hands of the men who, IN
Congress, must take the responsibility OF
action.
There Is not a great difference between
What Mr.. Bryan says should be the policy
of the country and the policy there is good
reason for believing President Mckinney
would like TO adopt.
Mr. BRYAN would not govern the people
Of the new possessions of the United States
,vitbout their consent, and President Me-
Kinlev. according to the best Information
available, would be glad 81 some means
could he devised to relieve the Unlteu
states of the responsibility of governing
Inc philippines. The difference between the
two men lies largely in the fact that MT
Rrvan. without responsibility, can adVo-
cate policies which Mr.. Mckinley, who Is
responsible, sees cannot be carried out.

From the Philadelphia Ledger Qnd).
William Jennings Bryan may be, and he
Is absolutely heretodox on the currency
question. but his latest deliverance on the
subject of Imperialism and expansion is as
patriotic as it is conservative. The
truth is that the advocates of Imperialism
have thrown consistency to the winds.
They demand that we shall annex be-
cause we have the physical power, and,
irrespective of the constitution, of prece-
dents and Of traditions, that we shall en-
bark upon an unknown sea, without star

From the Baltimore Herald Dem).

1t is notable that Col. Bryan's printed
interview does nos contain word about
silver coinage, or about any other subject
except that of territorial expansion. ON
this topic 1t is quite plain that the colonel
does not propose TO permit himself to re-
main in The background, and that he is
prepared to lead the opposition to what he
calls the 'fmperalistic idea on this point
his convictions are clear and well out
lined, and he furnishes another evidence
