BASEBALL PROSPECTS.
\ GENERAL REVIVING INTER
EST IN THE GAME IN VIR-
GINA AND NORTH
CAROLINA


In an interview last night with Mr..
70. j. Doran, secretary of the Vir-
ginia and North Carolina Baseball
League, he stated that the interest
being shown throughout Moth Carolina
and Virginia is remarkable and indi-
Gates that next season will see fast
ball in these two States.
At the adjourned meeting which will
be held al the Monticello Hotel on De-
cember 18th, representatives will be
present from the various points in
North Carolina and Virginia that are
covered by the League.
Letters received from various sources
nthese two States show a reviving
interest in the national game. At the
last meeting Mr.. Doran was instructed
to correspond with the railroads for
rates. and the replies to the letters in
dictate that the roads will treat the
League fair in the matter.
Contracts have been received from
Manager John Smith for several new
players. some of whom, according to
his judgment. are star players. John
generally strikes the mark. He made
no mistake with Mathewson and has
placed many good ones in the big
league.
The month of April has been booked
through and while Mr.. Doran will at
presen; give no names. he assures us
that the public will be we'll pleased
with the attractions.

NAV Con,eAere.

Several days ago the Virginian- Pilot
noted the fact that the Norfolk and
Atlantic Terminal Company had con-
tracted with large car building com
pany at st. Louis. Mo-. for n number
of new cars of the latest design for
suburban railway use. This company
turns out all kinds of cars and sup
plies for railroads all over this country
and also exports many cars.
1t is rumored that the company con-
templates seeking n new loca ton, and
is considering Norfolk among other
cities as possible future home. No--
folk offers many of the requisites that
Will be considered in consideration of
the change. such as suitable location
for shipments by railway or water,
desirable and beautiful climate and
proximity to abundant labor and raw
material The plant employs from $50
TO 1000 white workmen.

Just Missed Him.

Yesterday morning as the Southern
Hallway passenger train. speeding
along on her way to Primers Point,
was about six miles above the crossing
of the Southern's tracks and those of
the Norfolk and Western. the engine
struck mule cart. driven by n negro
man. at small crossing. The mule
was instantly killed, being horribly
mangled: the cart was smashed into
kindling wood but in some miraculous
manner the darlley was unhur;. ana as
he rose from the wreck OF his demol-
ished vehicle he clasped his hands 10
his kinky head and yelled out. 20
Gawd. Use all here" His escape from
horrible death cannot be explained

ON THE CRipIRON.
NORFOLK AND PORTSMOUTH
TEAMS TO MEET ON XMAS



On Christmas day at League Park
in Portsmouth, the strong football
team OF this city. Will battle with
Portsmouth to decide as to the merits
OF the two teams. Norfolk has not lost
q game this season, in fact. has not
been scored against In addition 10 the
regular team. Norfolk will be greatly
strengthened by the addition of many
fine players who are now in the differ
emit colleges. but will be here at the
time of the contest. Portsmouth has
lest some games this year. but by close
margins, and the teams they played
home have been strong aggregations,
and 1t is safe to say any team that
goes against them will be fully cog
infant OF having been engaged in n
game OF football. Expert officials will
have the game in charge assuring n
clean and fair exhibition.
1t is evident 20 those up In the game
that a stubborn and fierce confess; will!
be wased, though at the same time it
Will be a friendly contest, and q gen.
tlemanly game played.
From the interest being manifested
II is quite certain that many support
ers of the Norfolk boys will be on
hand to spur the home team on, and
cause them to exert themselves to the
utmost TO place our colors at the top.
1T is none the less true that Ports
mouth will send out crowd of faith
full adherents, who, as ever, will be
loyal to their team.
The line up OF the teams Will be
given next week and among them will
be many stars OF the local gridiron.

any formal vote accepted. and the committee
adjourned until o'clock in the morning at

not know until after the platform had been re-
ported to the Convention that the plank assert
ing the power OF Congress to govern the Terri
tories had been omitted. or that the merchant
marine plank had been changed to the form IN
which it appears in the platform. Whether these
subjects were discussed and acted upon at the
meetings of the sub-c committee which did not
attend I do not know. I learned Of the matter
fop the first time after the platform had been
reported to the Convention and was published
in the newspapers. I did not know until then
that it was intended on the part Of anybody 10

material change in any OF them l think the
merchant marine plank was stronger and better
in its original form, but can understand how
the subcommittee may have preferred it in the
form adopted.

respect to the power Of Congress to govern

One of the most remarkable chapters IN the
history Of the war with Spain was the voyage
Of the Oregon from San Francisco TO Key
West, through the Strait of Magellan, under
command Of Captain Charles T. Clark. She left
the Mare Island Navy Yard on March II, 1S9S,
and arrived at Key West on May 26. The yoy-
age Of nearly fourteen thousand miles was the
longest ever made by q vessel Of her class, and
she arrived at her destination not in need Of the

but surely forced the CristobaI Colon toward
the reefs until after a running night Of two
miles she grounded and hauled down her cOlors.

London. June 80. 6 a m.-At an early hour
this morning a report from Admiral Seymour
sa which he described his unsuccessful attempt
70 reach Peking and his return to Tlen-Tsin
was received ar the Admiralty.
The story is one of stubborn ganantry under
repeated attacks from furious hordes. whose
losses we're very heavy. The force was short
of provisions and was hampered by wounded.
and on June 70 Admiral Seymour. having failed
70 get into communication with Peking, deter
mined TO withdraw on Tien-Tsin. Well or
ganized opposition was experienced through
out the return march, the Chinese when de-
feated in one village retiring on the next and
occupying well selected positions, from which
they had often to be forced at the point Of the
bayonet in the face Of a CALLING fire
On June %. after night march. the imperial
armory above Tien-Tsin was seized by Sey-
mour. Here he was compelled TO await rein
forcements. which reached him on June %, and
he marched into Tien-Tsin the next day. Ad-
rniraI seynour's total losses were 60 killed and
DDS wounded The heaviest casualties were
among the British-27 killed and 81 wounded
The Americans lost killed and % wounded.
The Legation mystery is as deep as ever An

officials there declare they have authority
for stating that the foreign Ministers left
Feking for Tlen-Tsin via Pao~Tfng-FB on June

by strong body Of Chinese troops.
News has arrived at Shanghai stating that
Jung Lu has promulgated an order TO the
Provincial viceroys instructing them not TO
