that on which the Washington monu-

the extreme end Of its nose the pressure

Here it is interesting to note the differ

cotton Dry. The latter is highly infam-

of heat. Ii will also explode or detonate
easily. But when saturated with water
it is completely transformed and 5000

LOOKS LIKE PEACE,
American League to Have q Club in
Chicago.

ChlcaHO.
CHICAGO. March ia committee of
magnates Of the American Base Ball
League held another conference today with
President James A. Hart Of the Chicago
National League club, with view to reach
ing an agreement in regard to the placing
of an American League team in Chicago
the coming season. None of the parties
interested In the conference would talk
before the meeting took place. but from
other sources 1t is learned that the situa-
ton has taken on a broader phase than
the mere placing Of a minor league team
in this city. and that the negotfa tons really
involve the shutting out of any possible
rival of the National League in National
League territory. The removal of Comis-
keys team from st. Paul to Chicago is be-
lieved by many to be but the entering
wedge for the formation of another big
league.
1t Is believed an amicable settlement will
be made whereby the American League will
place a team in Chicago with the consent
of the National League. but under condi-
lions involving the giving the best dates
