very anxious about the players that the

league reduces the number April l. Mr..
Brush. however could give no Information
as the club managers themselves have not
decided what players they will retain. and
despite the urgency of the matter nothing
will be done until April 1.
Power puts on a bold front in discussing
the subject. He said: LAS to the Amer
lean Association players 1 am confident
that we will have no trouble in securing the
best talent. Already I have been made
aware that a number of the players in the
Protective Association are anxious to sign
with the American Association and are
only awaiting the time when they may,
and l have received number of letters
from good players who are not in the Pro-
tective Association asking to be signed.

TO PAY LARGER SALARIES.
American League MaGnates to Get Ma
tiORal LeaKue Stars.


tfORal League Stars.
The Detroit correspondent of Sporting
News says that Magnates McGraw, kiliilea
and Somers nave more or less plainly nti-
mated that the clubs Of the American
Leogue are to be strengthened TO a point
where they will be little. if any inferior to
those of the National League. This can
mean but one thing, and that is the acqui-
sition of National League stars. From an
entirely reliable source he has been let in on
the plan. and no less an authority than
Manager Stalhngs has confirmed It's
Unless the National League magnates ac-
cede to the demands of the players in the
farm, sale and reserve matters, and that,
too, at an early date, each American club Is
to sign three National players of the high
est rank. These are players who have been
held year after year and are anxious to
break their chains. Their applications are
in. conditioned upon the refusal of the mag
mates, and each American manager or
owner has made his selections.
Says President Burns of the Detroit club:
Every one of us can afford to do this, and
raise the salaries of our other players The
Detroit club paid the National $500 last
season. 1t paid $500 for protection. 1t
paid hundreds more in salaries to extra
players that were being tried out having
seventeen or more on its roll all the time.
This year II will carry fourteen men. and
not an experiment in the bunch. Cut out
all these unnecessary expenses and l Will
have a margin of abont $1,000 that I can
invest in salaries without the loss OF a
nickel. Suppose take on three s.. 400 men
in the place of three who were paid 81 800
or 81 coo last year. 1 would still have $4,000
more to divide up among my other eleven
players, and that would put us up very
close to the National League. I could af-
ford to go even a little more. for the extra
strength of the American teams would
bring more halves and quarters to the box
office"
Il have selected my three National
Leaguers." said Stallings, land there will
be big rejoicing among the fans when their
names are announced. Terms and all have
been arranged, and they are only awaiting
permission from the Players Association to
sign American contracts. l also know the
names upon the lists of Killilea. Comiskey,

each, and there will be no confusion when
the time comes. Each manager will sign
his men, and that is all there will be to 1t.

OBJECTS TO BASE BALL PARK.
Rev. Mr.. Ames Enters Protest With
the Comm issiOners.


Rev Mr. A. H. Ames. president of the
Lucy Webb Hayes National Training
School, Deaconess Home and Sibley Me-
mortal Hospital, on behalf of the managers
of the institution, has written the District
Commissioners earnestly protesting against
the proposed use of the vacant lot on North
Capitol street between l. and NJ streets as
a base ball park. The lot is directly across
the street from the institution and the
proximity of any place of public amuse-
ment especially one accompanied by 50
much noise as a base ball park would be
would depreciate the value Of it's property
and be a source Of constant annoyance says
Mr.. Ames.
But 1 desire" he explains, "to call your
especial attention to the fact that Sibley
Hospital q charitable institution which
provides beds for over forty free patients
and which is a part of our institution is
directly opposite the vacant lot spoken of
above A moments reflection will show
that a place of public amusement so near
our hospital will be exceedingly injurious
treatment. Even the occasional visits Of
circuses and other like shows put the pa
tients Of the hospital in serious danger
The continuous noise and disorder which
must accompany a base ball park will be
disastrous In the extreme. In the name
therefore. of humanity the managers Of our
institution protest against the conversion Of
the aforesaid lot to the purpose named"

Threshfe Plays Marvellous Billiards.
Billiards Of a quality seldom equaled by
either amateur professional character
lied the playing of Chas. Threshie Of Bos-
ton at the Knickerbocker A. c., New York
last night in the amateur tournament for
the class A fourteen-inch balk line cham
pionship of America. He triumphed over
]. b. c. Mckee of Philadelphia by a score
Of 400 to 2S2. but the easy victory which
the figures show fails to convey any Idea
as to the briliancy of the playing. Mr.
Threshie's average was 22-54. and his
highest run was A.. while Mr.. McKee's av-
erage was 17-53 and his highest run 30.
Mr.. Threshie gave an exhibition Of hard
shots such as few of the spectators had
ever seen before Many of them We're Of
a kind that would have caused Il profess
sional to stop and ponder over, put Mr..
Threshie made them so fast and with such
utter abandon as to make them look Of
the easiest kind. Mr.. Mckee. on the other
hand. played a scientific balk line game.
The result of this game ties Mr.. Threshie
with G. F. Conklin of Chicago for first
place. each with three Victories and no
defeats, and they will meet in the final
game tonight.

scented. The condition of cycling was shown
to be serious. Good roads were shown to
be the only tangible object for the existence
of the league, and. the delegates decided
to stand upon their old wheeling basis rath-
err than open the doors to all users of the
highway. State Senator Horatio s. Earle
