THE BASEBALL
SITUATION
Players Leave Town Claiming
the Association Violated
Promises.
NO CONTRACTS MADE
And the Expense was betrayed by
Public SubsCription-The Asso-
citation Not Responsible
days Benefit Game and Baseball
Tournament Talked Of.

Ever since the base hsll games
with Tucson there has been
more .or less grumblin &
from a number OF the players of the
Ell Paso team, claiming unfair treat
ment at the hands of the association,
aud belle, ing they ad kick comirg,
nave severed their connection with tue
team and have sought fields
anew. The complaint seems to be
this: that when they were engage
ed to come to Ell Paso,
they were to receive certain
sum of money for playing, and further
claim that they were to be given posi-
over winter, 10 order to be in condition
for next seasons work. However, the
association did not live up to it's agree
ment, and a number of the boys de-
clded to quit.
The real status of the case is this:
1.-THE association was in no wise re-
sponsible for the bringing of the play
ers here" says President Hart, and
their expenses were paid from private
raised by Manager Jones
for the purpose. A number of leading
citizens agreed to give SIS a month for
two months to defray the expenses aud
the association had no authority to en-
gage professional men, and neither did
the association make any promises, such
as is claimed.
''On our trip to Tucson, therce to
Phoenix, we came out just about even.
At Phoenix we were losers sixteen dol
lars, and at Tucson we received $40
When a few incidentals were deducted
from this, you can see there was very
little to divide.
1--WE expected to get more from our
games here with Tucson, but the S. P.
US the first day, whereby
we lost 500, and the wind, which start
ed just before Sundays game kept
great many people away, and Tucson
received fifty per cent of the net re-
ceipts, which we admit were not very
large, due to the reasons which L have
already stated

A Snake Trust.

There have been reports every day
for some time past of all kinds of trusts
and com binatiQns Of commercial enter
prizes, but If rumors are true Roche.tss
ter will soon have a trust unique in it,
character. "A company is being or
gained for the purpose of getting rat
tlesnakes to extract from their medi-
Gina! properties and put them in the
market in unlimited quantities.. One
of the prime movers for the organize
ton of the company, of course, is 'Rat-
tlesnake Pete" Grubsr, whose reputa-
| ton as postmaster in the knowledge
OF all that pertains to snakes of all
descriptions is by no means limited by
the boundaries of this city, or even
| this state.
Pete was approached recently on the
subject of the ''snake trust" No one
could be more serious in the project
that be.
"Such company" he said, sis I'm
der way. and has every appearance of
oelng big success. For several years
! back have had numerous offers OF
different kinds to put my goods on the
market, but when you go to the bottom
or these elaborate offers they were will
ing to pay me good price for the use
OF my name and Autograph, but when
it came to the merits of the goods they
oAAh v oCCiu w care WQSGD6r IL contain
ed any of the healing properties of the
snake or lake water The pres
emit company is composed of business
men. and not schemers. and it Is now
my anticipation to leave early in July
for the south, and not only bring back
a goodly supply of rsttlers, but mako
arrangements for further shipments.
We will fit up what you might call q
farm for the raising and breeding of
the snakes. 1t will no doubt be located
in the suburbs of Rochester, and the
novelty of having snake farm in our
locality will doubtles attract good
deal of attention"
1t Is the intention of the company to
put upon the market not only the snake
oil, valuable as liniment, but the
snake skins. which are shed three
times annually, and which are said to
possess great medicinal qualities.
1t is also stated that within a short
time there will be established small
sanatarium in this city for the treat
ment of goitre alone. The goitre cure,
which is effected by use of live snake,
has been handled with no small amount
of success within the last few months,
aud so great is the demand on the part
of the patieuts that the sanitarium has
become positive ecessity.-Roches-
