Yale's Base Rail- Team Has a New
Policy Under Consideration.


NEW HAVEN, Conn. Feb. 26.-Yale's base
ball managers have been contemplating a
radical change in their policy for the coming
season. They have been debating whether
it would not be better to adopt the plan in
vogue at Harvard and one two other col
leges of playing no professional teams Strong
opposition to playing professional mines has
been presented by at least one member of the
Yale athletic committee, and because of the
firm stand he has taken in the matter the
Yale team has declined more than one chal-
lenge to meet league mines this season
Challenges have been received from half a
dozen professional teams at Yale The last
to be declined is that of the champion Bos-
tons. New York and Brooklyn would also
like games with the Yale men.
At present the Yale managers not pre-
pared to take the stand that their varsity
nine shall meet professionals. but they
will this season play smaller number than
ever before. series of games with the New
Ravens, OF the Connecticut league and with
one or two mines of the Eastern league, is
now probable but not yet arranged.

For Service in the Philippines

II Will Probably Take Three
Months to Get Them in

Believed Many Volunteers Now
Coming Home Will Wish
to Return.

WARRINGTON, June 3O.-The first
volunteers to be raised for service in
the Philippines will be those for the
skeleton regiments now being formed

there will be the least diff Guilty in Oh.
tanning these men. 1t is probable that
some time will elapse before the troops
Of the provisional army are sent to
Manila, but meanwhile they will be
drilled and taught Workmanship in
camp. 1t is estimated that three months
are required to make soldiers Of new
recruits. The officers Of the war de-
partment think that number Of vol
un.eers now coming home will desire TO
return to the Philippines for a short
service after they have had an opportu-
nifty to see home and friends. These
men are regarded as the most desirable
for the regiments being organized by
General Otis. 1t is learned ut the war
department that there is no actual rush
10 get the new organizations to General
Otis at the present time. The rainy
season having set in. it is not believed
that these troops will be necessary for
service except to relieve those who have
been on active duty. The transport
service is said to be sufficient, though
ships may be chartered temporarily II

ton Of the provisional army was to be
raised has caused swarm Of politicians
