MaGNATeS IN SESSION.

The chief topic Of IN. assembled base
ball men is the possibility Of a war be-
tween the National and the American
leagues.
All other issues are eclipsed by the un-
certainty OF the present situation. There
are straws which show which way the
wind blows, but the developments OF tho
next few days may change the whole
situation There Is every Indication now
that the Nstionsl and all minor leagues
are arrsyed against. the American league.
Ban Johnson and HE crowd intimate an
afnii.tion with the Players Protective
association, and that body hints at pos
sibilitles OF an alliance with the Ameri-
can league II they 60 not get what they
want from the National league.
The Players Protective association pro-
baby considers this good card TO play,
but II is doubtful II II is wholly serious
i'm the matter.
There is little question that the whole
matter rests on the McGraw case. II
the American league would pay for Nc
Graw's release TO ST. Louis johnson and
his assooiy tes wouic have little trouble
in making out their circuit under rea-
sonable conditions. Protection under the
national agreement Is I'm favor OF the
minor leagues and the National league
would probably not naegle about this
point.
Under instructions from Harry Tay-
lor. players OF all leagues who are mem
bers OF the Players Protective associa-
tion have refrsined from signing contracts
for next season. With the American
league outside the pale OF protection.
this leaves the pick OF their players for
the National and other leagues

Forty Years Among CannibaIs.

The French adventurer who was a
captive among cannibals in Central
Africa for forty years, has decided to
write a book, which will no doubt prove
interesting. We can sympathize with
his release from his horrible captivity,
which must have been as joyous as that
of a man who finds himself suddenly re-
leased from the captivity of a refractory
stomach, by that peerless remedy, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which has done
more to promote health than any other
in existence. This is the medicine to
take, if you are a sufferer from dyspepsia,
constipation, indigestion, biliousness
nervousness or insomnia. Don't fail tc
| give it a trial. Ask for Hostetter's and
do not accept a substitute. The genuine

neck of bottle.
