THE NEW LEAGUE.

CHICAGO, October Sat a meeting
to-day of western members of the New
American Association of base ball. clubs,
representing Chicago, St Louis, Mil
walkee and Detroit, President H. d.
Quinn was ordered to call a meeting
for the complete organization of the
new association at New York on Thurs
day, October 26 President Quinn had
letters from Secretary Hough, at Phila-
delphia, announcing that the eastern
end Of the new association was fast
rounding into shape and that six appli-
cations for membership had been re-
ceived from cities in that section. Only
four of these will be accepted as the
new association has determined to limit
its membership to four clubs in the east
and four in the west. The President
received communications from some OF
the leading National and Western
League players assuring the new as
sociation of their friendship and will
lingness TO join it's clubs. The COM
munications. it was stated, seemed TO
indicate that the new league will have
no trouble in securing all the first-class
players it may need.

the nine arches are now complete and
ready for decorating.
The Mcclure House, which is to be
the general headquarters. will be fit
tingly bedecked, as will also be the
Pythian Castle, the Wheeling Lodge
rooms in the /. o. o. +. hall, and the
Ohio Valley rooms. The contract for
outside decoration at the Pythian Cas-
tie has been let to a Pittsburg contrac-
tor, who does that kind of work. Two
notable displays will be those OF the
Exchange Bank and Charles R. Goethe,
the druggist. Mr.. Goethe will have an
excellent electric display, which will
be made from electric lights. E. S.
Dinger & Co., the hatters, also have
a very pretty electric sign in Pythian
colors. No doubt all the uptown bust
ness houses will be suitably decorated.
If it rains to-day the work of outside
decorating will be kept back somewhat.
Tonight the final meeting of the
general committee will be held at the
headquarters in the Mcclure block
when the subcommittee will make
their reports and all the business con-
corning everything pertaining to the
session will be arranged.

their impending fate Caldwell spent
the day in bed, and claimed to be sick.
Both frightened up when the Governor
discussed their cases with them. and
his presence appeared to inspire them
with hope.
A number Of Moundsville citizens
called at the prison during the after
neon and evening. and paid their re-
spects to the Governor.
The State Pardon Board will meet
at Moundsville to-day. This is the
only hope that remains for Caldwell.
Unless the Pardon Board recommends
a stay OF execution in his case, which
is extremely improbable, he will swing
from the scaffold in the death chamber
soon after midnight Tuesday morning.
The law which created the Pardon
Board did not endow It with final au-
thcrity. It's functions are purely ad-
visory. 1t is not az all likely. however,
that the Governor would decline TO act
in accordance with recommendation
Of the Board.

An elegant spread was served to the
bowlers of the Harvest and All Root
er teams of the Mozart League, and
their friends, at the Silver Globe club
room last Saturday evening, and high
old time was had by all.
The supper, which consisted mainly
of oysters in every style, was excel
lent and a credit to the cooks who act
ed like professionals at the business.
Plenty of assorted refreshments were
on hand and the bartenders weren't lazy
SO that no body went dry. The music
for the occasion was furnished by Mey-
er's band, assisted by Doodle" jain
Ike, and was fine. The cake walk was
good and was won by Smokey" Hah-
man and Fiddle" Rolf Maud"
Plankey ard "Peewee" Hall had charge
Of the entertainments and attended
strictly to business. The Wheeling
league secretary delivered a fine adj
dress lasting fully an hour and a half,
and was at various times interrupted
by prolonged applause, the subject was

Rahr and Legs" Kraft entered the
roped arena with the boxing gloves to
spar for points much to the delight of
all present. "PiGge' lost the decision

the guests as they left for their homes
in the early hours OF morning was
that the All Rooter and All Alike
teams were DANCED" good fellows.

City Next Week.

City Next Week.
The annual meeting Of the West
Virginia Hotelkeepers' Association will
be held in this city on Tuesday of next
week, 18th inst. A good attendance is
expected from all parts of the State.
George C. Taylor. of the Hotel Ruffner.
Charleston, is President Of the Associa-
ton. The object Of the organization is
the mutual protection of its members.
It's value to the members was evidenced
at the last legislature, when State laws
advocated by hotel men, and framed in
their interest, were enacted.
The local hotel men have not yet
met to arrange for the entertainment
of the visitors, and a place of meeting
but will probably do so to-day or to-
morrow 1t has been suggested that
the entire body be taken to the opera
house in the evening, banquet to fol-
low at the Mcclure house. This will
probably be the form Of entertainment
to be decided upon.
