At the conclusion of the hearing Mr..
Taylor submitted a draft of the con-
tract, the players wanted put in vogue.
The committee promised the players to
consider the matter at once and give
them decision tomorrow.
Immediately after the hearing the
leagues circuit committee, composed of
Messrs. Hart, Brush, Rogers and So
den, went into session. Their session
lasted until 5 o'clock, when the meeting
of the league was called
AT the conclusion of the meeting of the
circuit committee, Col Rogers said that
the meeting was informal and he could
not tell what was dohe. 1--WE talked
over the American league, but it was in
an informal way. We could not discuss
it officially for the reason there is moth
ing to discuss. Mr. Johnson has not
made any demands of the National
league, nor has he signed the National
agreement Just at present the American
leagu. has no existence, so far as the
National is concerned"
A memorandum of the players de-
mands was submitted to the league to-
day Subsequently, Mr. Taylor made
public the principal points covered in
the memorandum. They are as fol
lows:
PLAYERS, DEMANDS
''First-Club owners not to have the
right to reserve players at a salary less
thar. that provided for the ensuing year;
nor for more than three years.
Second-Not to buy, sell, assign. trade,
loan, accept, select or claim service of
any player for any period in any way,
without his written consent.
''Third-Cl1b owners to pay physicians
fees for injuries received in actual Play.
Fourth-No player to be suspended
without payment three times a season,
or two weeks al a time.
"Fifth-A committee of arbitration, one
member to be chosen by owners, one
by the players and third by these two,
such committee to pass on all differences
between players and owners"
The magnates adjourned at $50 tonight
After the meeting broke up President
Young said:
There is nothing to give out for pub
!fcaton. The magnates took up the sub
Ject of the demand of the players and
discussed it. Nothing was done, however.
Tho liter viii he taken M 1T tOmOr-
rows session and then something may be
done. The players demands was the only
matter taken up at tonights session."
The circuit committee held another

of Minneapolis, were the contestants in
| the game this evening, and large
crowd watched them trying to get the
better of each other in the eighth game
of the finals in the amateur billiard cham
| pionship. Hitherto the attendance has
been anything but encouraging, but to-
nights game brought out very large
and enthusiastic gathering of experts
Hendrfck won by margin CT f1fty-eight
! points, but in order to do so he had to
! fight every inch of the way, as the Min
neapolis man was clearly on his game
and never missed an opportunity.
! Hendrick played game which was
full of good judgment and clever bill
lizards. and he forced Billeter~to the lat
| ter's utmost. At times both men played
with a brilliancy deserving of champion
| ship honorS, but as the game Wore on
near to the finish Hendrick proved to be
! the stronger player and he won by a
| good margin. The winners best effort
was a cluster of twenty-five. Billeter
| played excellent billiards, but tried fire.
quently to play safety Safe plays did
not count against Hendricks game, as
the New Yorker was on edge, and he
treated the spectators to one of the best
exhibitions as yet shown by any player
in the tournament
Following is the score of The evening

was played in the afternoon by Charles
Schmitt of Chicago, and Paige, of Bos-
ton. Paige led the way for the greater
part of the game, but Schmitt outpiayed
him at the finish and won by fourteen
points. 1t was a very slow game; in
fact, the slowest yet played in the final
series, but it was interesting from start
to finish.

THEY HAVE HAD ENOUGH.
MarOons Will Not Play the GOphers

1t is extremely unlikely that a football
game between Minnesota and the Uni
versity of Chicago will be arranged for
next year. Coach Stagg, of the Maroons.
it is said does not want to arrange such
a hard schedule for next season as he
did for 1885, and the Gophers are to be
dropped. DR.. H L. Williams, athletic
director at Minnesota, said: while Mr..
Stagg has not officially notified me that
he would decline to play Minnesota next
ranged. wrote to Mr.. Stagg some time
ago, asking him if a contest could be
scheduled, but have not heard from him
as yet.
leges at Chicago shortly after Thanks
giving, however, Mr.. Stagg. told Prof.
Jones, of our athletic board, that Chicago
would not play Minnesota next season.
So ] suppose the matter is practically
settled"

WANT 1T CHANGED.
Curriers' Find Defect In Resolution
for New Rink

Owing, to one clause in the resolution
passed by the city council granting the
Minneapolis Curling club permission 10
erect a club house and rink back of the
West hotel, work on the proposed build
ing will be delayed for a week or more.
The clause referred to provides that the
exterior construction be of iron, whereas
it was the intention to construct a port
able building, which could easily be re-
moved in case the ground should be need
ed for building purposes in the near fut-
IRE.
The curriers' are somewhat disconnected
over the matter, but they propose to con-
suit the council again In hopes of hay
ing the resolution changed.
The 500 Curling club of Sault Ste
