PRESIDENT DREYFUs ON SCHEDULE
Final Arrangement of Certain Dates
Depends on Circumstances.

DcpenuS On SlfcumStanceS.
Barney Drcyfus, president of the Louis
vile club, stopped over in Washington be-
tween trains last evening to call upon his
old friend Michael Scanlon. The Evening
Star reporter dropped into the room as the
two men were discussing the late meeting in
New York, and. among other things Sc
cured the following news about the sched-
ule from the Louisville president. Mr..
Dreyfus said:
while the schedule published was not
adopted by the league, its adoption was
postponed only TO await the action of the
courts in the st. Louis club sale. Should
the sale pass off without a hitch and Mr..
Robson make arrangements so that the
Cleveland club will be transferred to st.
Louis, the schedule already published will
be adopted. Should the transfer of the In
dams be blocked certain dates in the sched-
ule will be changed.
Every season different clubs are given
preferences in the way of strong attrac-
tions on holidays. For instance. II We had
the st. Louis last year on the 4th of
July, this season the Louisville club would
be entitled to an attraction like the Cfn-
cinnatis or Chicagos. The schedule as made
out for twelve clubs and four trips calls for
the st. Louis club in Baltimore Memorial
day and in Chicago July a. Both these
clubs are entitled to strong attractions on
those dates and, of course they expected
the Indians to be In st. Louis next season
gregation On the holidays named. Should
the Indians remain in Cleveland the sched-
ule will be changed just that much-that is,
the Cleveland club will take the st. Louis
dates and vice versa.
q Mr.. Dreyfus was enthusiastic over the do
ings of the magnates at the late meeting,
and was particularly pleased over the
Knockout blow delivered at the farming
system He has always maintained that
farming was big handicap to the weak
er clubs that could not AFFORD to support
club in a minor organization, and the Louis
vile man believes in treating everybody
alike. With farming abolished Mr.. Drey-
fus believes that the weaker clubs will
eventually strengthen up to the standard
of the first division teams.
Speaking Of the Louisville club. Mr.. Drey
fus said that he was very well contented
with his aggregation, and all he asks is
that his men play the game that they did
at the finish of last season. Should the Col
onels start in the season at the same gait
they left Off last faHe there will be no stop
ping them, and even should they weaken as
the season grows older the club will anchor
in the first division TO a dead certainty.

WHERE LIES THE HEART.

WHERE LIES THE HEART.
In the living-room of a house on the
north side of the Tennessee river, OPP
posite Chattanooga, sat the silent sois
der. Before him stood Gen. Heath, at
at window sat Margaret and Georgia
Beach, while leaned against the wall.
But had no idea of stretching my
self or even seating myself in the pres
ence of the commanding general, though
it was his exalted position rather than
his commanding appearance that de-
tered me. He was sitting sidewise, one
arm over the back of the chair, his
hands clasped negligently, his legs
crossed, boots undiscovered, the pri-
Yates overcoat he wore thrown open,
showing bit of wooden shirt under his
chin. In his mouth was the ever pres
ent cigar. He had come at Gen. Heath's
request to hear the evidence in the dis
puted question as to where Gen. Long
street had gone, and to decide what
should be done with Margaret Beach.
AT signal from the general-in-chief
that he was ready to listen, Margaret
and Georgia came forward, and Gen.
Heath spoke:
ION the -th of October you directed
me to head an expedition with view
to determining the truth or falsity of

was to be detached from Bragg's army
and sent to crush Burnside. followed

ton. Margaret Beach was caught with
plans of Burnside's defenses in her
hands, was tried for a spy by drum
death. Subsequently l availed myself
of her services as guide, promising
that if her efforts bore fruit the magni-
tude of the benefit to the union cause
might warrant your interceding with
the president in her behalf for an par
don. Her life therefore depends upon
the evidence which is to be brought up
for your consideration and your sub
sequent decision, either to approve the
finding of the court or recommend
clemency."
Gen. Heath then gave his commander
history of the case from the time
VIC first met Margaret Beach to our
return to Chattanooga. When he had
finished, Private Mellodew was called.
He came into the room with his usual
grin, which it was now plain came from
overstrained nerves. He had begun by
lie, and had no choice but to continue
in lie. He asserted that no movement
northward of any large body of troops
had taken place, and that Margaret and
], in order to save Margaret, had con-
spired to report the passage of q few
scattered bodies OF cavalry as move
ment of Longstreet's corps. Not will
ing to be party to this fraud, he had
left us to make his way back to the
plantation alone. Meeting messenger
about to enter confederate camp with
a dispatch in his belt, he, Mellodew,,
had accosted him, won his confidence,
stolen the message and brought it in
for the information it contained.
AT this point the general took paper
from his pocket and read:
Headquarters Army Of Tennessee.
November -th, 1863
''Col. Roger Archard:
"Colonel-You will watch your opportun-
ity to rejoin with your command Gen.

ing in a general attack on the enemy at
