THE NEW LEAGUE.

CHICAGO, September 18.-Affairs of
the new base ball league assumed
more serious aspect to-day, with the
arrival of one eastern representative,
Frank hough, of Philadelphia. The
delegates got down to business, can
vassed the situation, figured up what
financial power they could command,
and discussed their circuit. At present
the circuit they announce consists of st.
Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, and either
Detroit or Buffalo in the west, and New
York, Washington, Philadelphia and
either Baltimore or Boston in the east.
In st. Louis the new league promot-
ers have park which the SchaeffeTs
control, and they claim good financial
backing. In Chicago their strength is
not known further than that Arson is
the king pin. Buffalo and Detroit are
doubtful quantities, but the league
says it will take whichever is the most
promising in finances and grounds.
In New York, it was broadly limited,
the new league would play either on
Manhattan Field or on a new park
which they have in sight In Philadel-
phia they say they have a park and
good backing. In Washington they say
they expect to use the old base ball
park, and there, too, they assert they
have good backing. The fourth city in
the east is either Boston or Baltimore,
with the probability in favor of the
last named. McGraw and Robinson
will engineer the new league club if
the organization decides upon Balti-
more. 1t is said Arson will be the
first president of the new organization.
Reports were current tonight that
the leaders in the new association and
the National league had Professionally
deemed it best to work on a basis of
harmony instead of antagonism. These
reports are strongly doubted.
John T. Brush, power in the Ma
tional league, announced that he IA
vored the modification of the draft rule,
a concession to the Western league evil
denly launched with view to keeping
the support of that organization in
case of emergencies.
General admission will be placed at
% cents instead of so cents, the latter
price prevailing in the National league.

EXTINGUISHED.

A young and newly-married couple
were entertaining their friends, and
among the guests was one whose con-
tinued rudeness made him extremely
Objectionable to the rest of the COM
pany. His conduct, although almost
unbearable, was put up with for some
time, until at supper he held up on his
fork a piece of meat which had been
served to him, and in vein of intend-
ed humor, he looked round and re-
marked:
SIS this pig?"
This Immediately drew forth the re-
mark from a quiet-looking individual
sitting at the other end of the table:

EMPHATIC PROTEST
Entered by the Chinese, Government
Against General Otis's Order.

Entered by the Chinese Government
Against General Otis's Order.
WASHINGTON, September 1S.-The
Imperial Chinese government, through
its minister here, Mr. WI Ting-Fang,
has lodged with the State Department
an emphatic protest against the mill
tary order of Gen. Otis, excluding Chi
nese from the Philippines. Neither the
State Department nor the CnlneSe Le-
CATION will give any information con-
corning the protest, but from entirely
reliable quarters it is learned that 1t
insists that Gen. Otis action is con-
trary to international law, in violation
of existing treaties, and in complete
disregard of the friendly relations
which have been so long maintained
between the two countries. Minister
WI called at the State Department last
Friday. and it is believed he submitted
the protest in person at that time.
The matter was promptly brought
to the attention of the President, as the
protest was of such character as to
give the subject an international aspect
considerably beyond the purely military
questions involved.
1t is understood that among the spe-
cific points of protest submitted by the
Chinese government is one to the effect
that such an order is a departure from
the announced purpose of the President
of the United States to maintain the
present status of affairs in the Philip
pines until Congress had determined a
permanent condition.
The military phases Of the question
have been referred to Secretary Root.

Great Speed


NEW YORK, September 1S.-The Sham
rock had another sail trial to-day or
Sandy Hook, starting from the Scotland
lightship and sailing over fifteen mile
course to the winGward and return. The
Irish boat certainly showed great speed,
especially on the run home on an increas-
ing breeze, making the last fifteen miles IN
one hour and fourteen minutes, remark
able performance considering that her
sheets were apparently trimmed well IN,
while the course was a broad reach. Her
beat to the mark was also made In good
time although the last five miles was
sailed with sheets lifted as the wind shift
ed from southeast an south. letting her up
IN good shape She used her new main
sail and aluminium gait and seemed to
carry her sail very well. She covered the
thirty miles in about three hours, 70 min
utes and 10 seconds.
The trial was one of the most successful
that the Shamrock has had. All seemed
10 be well satisfied with her performance
She will probably go out again tomorrow
