The base ball situation as Il relates to
Wheeling Is unchanged, and the public
Is beginning to realize that all hopes for
continued membership in the Interstate
league have been blasted. However, the
prediction is generally In circulation that

that the. outlook is altogether one OF

seems hungry for the game this spring,
and will no doubt support team in the

It now appears that the conspiracy 10

the recent meeting OF the National
League in st. Louis. when President

The town clock will soon be purchas-
ed. The matter will doubtless be set
tied next Tuesday evening. The board
OF education, which has charge. met
last night and carefully considered the
propositions OF the manufacturers of
clocks costing from 5000 to $3.50 and ad-
journed until next Tuesday evening. in
order to further investigate The matter.
The members OF the board think quite
fayorably OF certain clock. which
seems TO be about what Is wanted, and
inquiries will be made In cities where
this clock Is used. The board OF educa-
ton. like the people generally, Is heart
lily In favor OF buying first class clock
and not cheap one, which would not
keep correct time, and be source OF
great annoyance The kind OF clock
wanted will not cost over $3.50 and 1t Is
thought the order will be given next
Tuesday night. The new town clock will
be IN the tower OF the Central school
building. and can probably be seen
from more parts OF the city than II
up at eny other point. When the clock
Is purchased 1t will be ordered shipped
promptly and will be put up and into
operation as soon as possible.

A NICARAGUA CANAL.
RETURN OF the GRACE SYNDICATE
REPRESENTATIVES.

They Report Having Secured the Nec-
essary Concession-Route Surveyed
ny the Old Company BE Fol-
lowed-opposition Not Expected.
E. F. Cragin of Chicago, Edward Eyre
OF the firm of w. r. Grace s. Co, Colo
mel Alexander Bacon and a corps of civil
engineers, representing the Grace Nj
caragua canal syndicate, arrived from
Greytown recently on the fruit ship
Allegheny. The party went to Mica
ragua to obtain from that government a
canal concession and TO find ont il a
canal could be built along the route
surveyed by the Maritime Canal COM
pany of New York. Mr.. Cragin says that
the concession has been obtained, and a
canal will be built ON the old route.
The contract calls for the completion of
the canal in 1909.
The Maritime Canal company of New
York. of which Hiram Hitchcock is
president, holds the Cardenas- -Menocal
concession obtained from the Nicaragua
government ON March IS. 1887. This is
a l2 year concession and does not ex-
pire until next year, but President Ze-
laya of Nicaragua holds that the Mari
time company, which long ago ceased
active work in Nicaragua. has violated
several articles of its agreement, and
that the contract is therefore void but,
to avoid any trouble, the concession
granted William r. Grace's representa-
tives is dated October. 1899 Mr. Cragin
brought with him a copy of President
Zelaya's message to the Nicaragua con-
gress, in which the president says:
II shall give you an account of a
promise of contract for the opening
OF an interoceanio canal through our
isthmus granted to Messrs Cragin and
Eyre, representing respectable syndi-
cate of American capitalists. The gov
ernment has formed clear and we'll
defined opinion that the Cardenas- Men
ocal contract of March Is, 1887, has
been forfeited for nonfulfillment of its
most essential claims and for the aban-
donment of work for nine consecutive !
years; but. wishing to avoid annoying
discussions that might bring difficulties, |

proceed where their interest is at stake, |
