though these Western men held all the
winning cards. Frank Robson and
his silent partner. Brush, have f1gur-
ed all along that they would have no
really strong bidder to compete with
at the coming auction sale of the St
Louis plant. Undoubtedly they will
bid high if necessary. but it does not
follow that they will relish the idea
Of having the price run up to sensa-
tional figures. When they find LOTUS

doubtedly make him some sort Of COM
promise offer. Then and not until then
Will Brush & Co. appreciate the real
strength of the Western leagues po-
sition.
There will be the usual haggling and
delay, for your National league mag
nate dearly loves delay, but in the
end the Cleveland territory will be de-
hvered free of cost. Then LOTUS will
reconsider his determination to bid for
st. Louis. and for the first time in the

interesting spectacle of the big league

RIGHTS OF HACKDRIVERS
To Be Tested in Regard 20 the Union
DeDOts Rules

The local hackdrivers' union has started a
legal fight with the st. Paul Union Depot
company. The question involved Is whether
or not the depot company can lawfully grant
the privilege to certain hackdrivers or a
firm operating hack or omnibus line to So
licit patronage in the depot to the exclusion
of other hackdrivers. J. B. Cook & Son at
present enjoy the sole privilege of soliciting
business in the depot, acting, it is said un-
der an agreement with the depot company.
To bring the matter to a test, q. Gadbois,
member Of the hackdrivers' union, last
week entered the depot and solicited several
arriving passengers. He was elected from ths
depot, it is alleged, by Charles B. BrowneiI.
Yesterday, w. ". Erwin, attorney for the
hackdrivers union, appeared before Judge
Hine and demanded warrant for Brownells
arrest, on the charge OF assault and battery.
Judge Hine took the matter under advisement
until today.
In discussing the case, Judge Hine said that
while the technical charge of assault was
made against Mr.. Brownell, that It was clear
that a moro important question, whether or
not corporation such as a railroad or the
depot company could extend special privi-
leges to some to the exclusion of others, and
suggested that the matter be taken to the
supreme court, which course, It is said, will
probably be followed.

Heavily on OROurke's Man.
IF could have had go at Sharkey and
knocked his head off for the dirty work
he did me at San Francisco it would have
pleased me much more. But the sailor never
did want to fight. He's been blufing ever
since he and O'Rourke began their talk If
he is so good and thinks he can whip me
1t would have been worth many times what
he is going to make out of the Mitchell light
to have beaten me. That shows that he's
got a yellow streak down his back, and all l
am sorry for is that 1 could not knock his
bluffs into a cooked hat by getting at him.
He had his chance and from now on we won't
listen to any more of his cheap talk.
"As for Jeffries, he's entitled to go, now
that we have got rid of the sailor. He was
he wants. It's going to be a short fight
He's better man than Sharkey, but won't
have any trouble doubling him up when we
get in the ring. Jeffries is a better man
than the sailor ever dreamed of being. The
