formation which showed that an organized
attempt would be made on election day to
get ont OF the city fifteen men in each pre-
cinct who were known as intending 10 vote

ballot by the agents Of the trusts in this
city on election day, especially in the Third
Congressional district; and
whereas it behooves all patriotic citi-
zens to be yigilant for the detection OF such
work and for the punishment of those who
by bribery and fraud seek to stife the Will
OF free people:
Therefore be ii resolved, That We. the
members OF the Irish-American Union OF
Baltimore hereby appoint a secret Vigi-
lance committee composed OF capable and
alert men OF our organization to do duty
a. the polls at every precinct in the city
On election day, the names OF said COM
mittee not to be divulged or made public,
lest publication may thwart their efforts
to secure evidence against the agents of
the corruptiouists;
And further be it resolved, That to Gi1
and assist the said vigilance committee

men OF the bar, who have volunteered
their services to represent cur organ "a

A CHILD's ACCOUNTING DEATH.
Twenty-MOnths-OId Earl Garrison
Fatally Burned.

Earl William Garrison, the twenty
months-old child of Murray Garrison, a
gateman employed by the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company for duty at the crossing
at South Capitol Street, ., died in agony
at the Emergency Hospital about 1915
O'Clock yesterday morning. Death was
due to burns sustained by the child while
playing at the home OF its parents. Ia Vir-
ginia Avenue southwest. The body of the
child was blistered and buFned from head
to foot.
Earl and his brother Ross four years
old. were left in the Kitchen while Mrs.
Garrison went to the railway crossing to
take breakfast to her husband. When sac
returned a few moments later Earl was
lying on the floor OF the parlor uncon-
scious. His clothing was almost entirely
burned of and the lace curtains had ig-
nited The flames were quickly smothered
everything possible was done to save the
little life. Seeing that their efforts would
not avail, the physicians directed their at
tention toward allaying the sufferings OF
the little patient.
From Ross Garrison il was learned that
Earl drew the fire door from the kitchen
range and that his clothing caught fire
from some lighted chips which fell against
it, The child attempted to extinguish his
burning clothing, and falling, crawled from
the kitchen to the parlor, and 1t was while
attempting to call out the window for
help that the curtains ignited and he be-
came unconscious.

NEW YORK. March 14-President
Freedman, of the New York Baseball Club.
has not yet opened his barrel to
strengthen his team. so that it will have
a chance to hold its own in the coming
championship race. Manager Ewing has
been here since Sunday, but so far his
hands have been effeetually tied. He has
done nothing while sales OF Baltimore,
Washington, and other players have been
made. and tonight he was authorized to
give out this statement:
Mr. Freedman will not sign the agree
ment to pay his share of the Sl04 600 cir
cult reduction money. and will allow base
ball to go to the dogs at the Polo Grounds
unless certain magnates act fairly and
make good their promises. He wants
chance TO buy some of the surplus players
held by the different clubs and will not
accept 'hasbeens' either. The Philadel-
phia club has received word from President
Young that its claim upon the services of
Outfelder Slagle, one of the Washington
players. is valid. We put in a claim for this
man on Monday, but have been informed
that we were too late. Rogers Low has
the nerve to offer US one of his extra out
fielders for $4,000. Freedman sent him a
scorching letter today.
Then there's the case of Hamilton, the
Boston centre fielder. We wanted to get
him. but we have been told that the Bos-
ton club people wish TO find out first
whether he is of any use to them. Last
year Hamilton had weak ankles. II they
are all right this season he will stay in
Boston. If they are not New York can
have him; that's about the size of il.
There are other players we would like 10
have but the magnates are selfish and I'M
reasonable. If they do not come to time
Mr. Freedman will make things warm for
them"
President Robson. of the st. Louis club,
who is still in town. was rather cut Up.
he said tonight. over the action of the
Philadelphia club in buying Slagle. and
forthwith sent despatch TO Philadelphia
asking Rogers to let New York have Sla-
gle. The Brooklyn club still has several
good players to dispose of. but Freedman
refused again today to talk business with
the officials Of the champions. II Freed
man makes good k,s latest threat the mag
mates will have TO pay $4,000 extra, his
share toward the circuit reduction.

Defeating y. NJ. &. 4.

The Eastern Athletic Club basketball
team completed its schedule of League
games at the Light Infantry Armory last
night and signalize1 ne occasion by de-
feating the Y NJ I. A. payers by the
score of 10 3.
The losing team was strengthened by
the work of Joe DAILY. formerly of the
Carroll Institutes. The game was at all
times fast. and enough rough playing crept
in to make 1t gingery. keeping the game
officials busy. The work of the officials
was not up TO the standard. the winning
team suffering most al their hands.
At the end of the first half the score
stood to o. With six minutes to play in
the last half, DAILY. Y. NJ. c. A, goaled
from field. and on a double foul Craig.

safely on free throws. The whole Eastern
team played we'll while for the Y Nj. c. A.
Maize and Mueller excelled.
A pleasing feature of the occasion, be-
tween the innings, was the presentation of
a diamond studded watch charm by the
Eastern Athlete Club to Dr. Firman Hou-
sci. manager of the team. The presenta-
tion was made for the club by S. Porter
House, President of the League in pleas
ing terms. complimentiug manager and
players upon the clean sport furnished
during the season.
At the same time Captain Thompson re-
ceiyed for the team a handsome gold med
al, presented by Miss Stella Scott and Miss

game played through the schedule and for
winning the League championship.

BASEBALL NOTES.

The story that Malachai Kittredge has
purchased the franchise of the Worcester
club is wholly unfounded. He will in all
probability play with the Washington As
sociation club.
The New York club wants Billy Hamil-
ton, and as the work of placating Freed
man continues he Will probably go to that
club.
AS usual, the Phillies start of the sea-
son under serious handicaps. Lauder,
their crack third baseman. announces his
retirement from the diamond, which, with
Goeckles' throw down, leaves two bad va
cancies in the infield which will be diff
cult to supply.
Ban Johnson, President of the Western
League, regards the proposed organization
OF the American Association as a huge
bluff and says he will not be deferred
from putting clubs in Cleveland and Chi
cago.
Noodles" Hahn. the star pitcher of the
Cincinnati CLUB, is 9Th holding out for
an advance in salary and vociferously as
severates that he viii not play unless he
gets IL.
Jimmy McAleer, the late champion cen
ter fielder OF the Cleveland club. it is an
nounced. will manage the opposition team
TO be placed in Cleveland by Pan Johnson S
American League.
The Boston club will start for Green's
boro, n. C., today. where they will do their
preliminary practice.
A drift of the prophecies made by the
eight Big League managers:
Pat Tebeau. st. Louis-Will We win the
pennant? Well l won't say. but the club
that beats US out will land the flag.
Tom LOTUS. Chicsgo-rm not doing any
shouting. At that, though, l can't see
how We can be worse than first.
Robert Allen, Cincinnati-Mr. Brush has
claimed the pennant for US. / second his
tip.
Fred Clarke. Pittsburg-Im with vim
ner at last. Yes wen cop" that cham
pionship.
Edward Hanlon, Brooklyn-We won It
last year; also several times before. and
Well do IT again.
william Shettsline, Philadelphia-We
were close in 1899. We will be still closer
this year.
Frank selee, Boston-My team should
improve its position peg this year. That
makes us champions.
william Ewing. New York-Freedman
has the magnates in line. They are going
to give us a warm club and we're going
10 win the bunting.
Jouett Meekin. the noted pitcher, has
been released by the Boston Club. MeekIn
was released 10 the Bostons by the New
York Club last season in order to
strengthen their pitching department in
their hard fight for the pennant He is
hot-weather pitcher. and is never at his
best until about the latter part OF June.
For this reason. his services are not In de-
mand. His friends hope he may catch on
in the new American Association.
pire stan was for the reason that on ac-
count OF business matters he could not get
into the game before June, and for the fur
Their reason that he refuses to umpire Sun
day games.
The reduction OF the umpire staff will
save the National League about 900 an
nually in salaries.
