Brooklyn Players Dsfent tho Hockey Club In

Victory perched upon the banner Of the skat-
ing Club Of Brooklyn in the game of hockey au
the Ice Palace last night with the Hockey Club of
Now York. The contest was one Of the regular
championship series, and was punctuatcd by
the usual rough play Of the visitors. Dolby dis
tinguished himself In this particular by throw
ing his stick half way across the rink at one Of the
opposing players. who got the puck from him in q
hot scrimmage. Tho score ut the finish was 8 to 1.
Another novel feature was introduced in the
second half by Dolby. 1t was an effective stop
of the puck. which was travelling through spnco
with the speed of a swallow. He stopped it with
his eye instead of In the usual way, and as a

The game began shortly before 0 o'clock. and
for nearly 1.-Two minutes continued with varying
results. Wall carried the puck down the rink,
but was unable to shoot for goal until he passed
beyond the range of the poles. His effort passed
between the, flags from the rear and, striking
scoring for Brooklyn on the fiuke.. Immediately
after the f~ace.off, Phillips captured tho disk near

Hart Suggests q Punishment for KicLers-
Hnnlon Objects.

BALTIMORE. Fob. ed Hanlon has read over
the copy of changes in tho playing rules sent on
by Jim Hart. but 1t is not likely that he will
afflx his signature, as he does not approve Of
many that have been suggested. Many Of them
are trivial. An attempt Is made to define more
strictly the balk, and also to make more clear
an infleld hit and an illegal delivery. Hart pro-
poses to drop earned runs altogether. a PROPOSE
ton that Hanlon does not agree with. The
rules about umpires urc changed so as to con-
form to the double umpire system. They shall
be called the referee-umpire and the associate
umpire. The first named shall stand behind the
bat and be the sole Judge of balls, strikes, and
fouls. The other shall give all the base decisions,
except those occurring at the homo plate. The
referee-umpire shall be the chief. and all APP
peals must be made to him, and only by the
captains of the teams.
Kicking players shall be removed from tho
field, and shall further suffer such suspension
League shall deem fit. Hanlon does not like
Harris amendments with reference to kicking
players, as it gives too great a power 20 tho
umpires. The scoring rules are 30 amended
that no base hit shall be scored where a man is
forced out on the play. II Il man, in an attempt
to steal, is aided by n fielding or battery error,
or by n hit, he shall not receive credit for a
stolen base.
Hanlon announced this morning that he had
made up his mind to resume the training busi-
ness at the same old stand-Macon. Ga. The
men will leave Baltimore on March IA. Twelve
OF thirteen days will be spent in the South.

LETTERS RECEIVED
 AT THE CAPITAL Which Caused Much Excitement Among the Departments. TWO BOILERS UNDER STEAM When the Maine Was Wrecked-This Disposes of the Theory That the Disaster Was
 the Result of Boiler
 Explosion.

Washington, Feb. 23.-The arrival of a mail in Washington from Key West this afternoon brought several private letters from naval officers lately attached to the Maine, which caused excitement to run over the departments and the capitol. for there were all sorts of rumors as to the contents of these letters, very few of which rumors in point of fact had any sound basis.
 The only feature so far as could be dis covered of real importance as throwing any light on the cause of the explosion con- tained in the letters was the statement that the two after boilers in the aft boiler space were all of the eight boilers of the Maine that were under steam at the time of the explosion. This fact had negative value, for it disposed at once of the theory that an exploding boiler had caused the wreck. The experts all said that by no possibility could the aft boilers after the explosion i. have wrecked the fore part of the Maine and left the aft part unharmed.
 Much interest is shown in dispatch re- ceived shortly before o'clock from Ad- miral Scard, giving the recommendation of Capt Sampson as to the raising of the wreck. The view of naval officers was that Capt. Sampson and his associates were giving this advice, not as a court, but as officers in a position to speak as to the best methods to be adopted for wrecking the Maine.
 Forward Magazine Exploded
 Various interpretations were put on the expression, Forward half completely de- stroyed." This was regarded as partial confirmation of the theory that the for ward magazine had exploded as that is one of the most important portions of the forward half of the ship. At the same time it was held by some naval authori- ties that the destruction of the forward half of the ship did not necessarily mean that the forward mazazine had exploded, as this might still be intact although a part of the general wreckage. As to the forward part of the vessel, there was not very much talk.
 Some solicitude was expressed at the navy department over the condition of Admiral Sicard's health. It was said, how ever, that there was no occasion for re- lieving him now; that the flagship was not ready to leave Key West. and even if she was Captain Taplor or Captain Samp- son can assume charge of the squadron while the admiral takes two weeks to re- cover from his malarial fever, which he was about to enjoy when he voluntarily returned to his place.

 They were almost carried in triumph as shouts of "Death to the Jews" resounded on all sides.
 M. Zola was lead from the court at 7:S0 D. m., and his appearance was the signal for tumultuous indignation and insults and shouts of '.Down with Zola," Death to Zola." The crowd made a mad rush after his carriage, but a strong bulwark Of po- lice interyened and save him from the fury of his denunciators. A large force of police was stationed tonight in the neigh bcrhood of M Zola's residence. Many per- sons called, but all were informed by the servants that M.

 Immense crowds of people then gathered outside the palace of justice and the police were reinforced, trouble being feared.
 When the hearing was resumed, M. Gle menceau, for M. Perreux, made speech, seconding the remarks of M. La Borie and concluding with an appeal to the jury by the acuuittal of M. Zola to remove from France the danger of religious wars"
 The advoca general made brief rep.y, the jury retiring at 6:SO D. m., and was absent about half an hour.
