There are four large circular door

CHRISTMAS BRINGS
SMALL JOY TO BRITONS
London Editors Comment on the Fact
That the War Is Not
Ended

LONDON. Dec. 25.-"Christmas for the
third year in succession finds the country
engaged in war; is the burden of the edi-
toriaIs in the London papers this morning
and regrets are expressed that the casual
ty lists issued to-day totals fOrty-nine
men killed and seventy-One wounded. Sat
isfaction, however, is found in the fact
that the process of attrttion brings the
end of the struggle perceptibly nearer.
Compensation is likewise found in the
undiminished loyalty displayed by the
columns. .
Christmas brought a change of weather
conditions in Europe, where the severe
frost and snow have given way to cold
rain and sleet. In London the wretched
weather threw a considerable gloom over
the festivities. ShOpkeeperS suffered
heavily, as the dOwnpOur kept thousands
of people indoors.
Among the great cities of the world
New York is regarded as having the
greatest cause to rejoice for material
prosperity. Rome and St. Petersburg are
fairly prosperous, but Paris, Berlin and
Vienna are all suffering from bad trade
conditions.
The Prince and Princess of Wales pre-
sided yesterday at the annual distribution
of gifts, joints of beef etc. to the tenants

DENVER PooLRooMS
CLOSED BY THE SHERIFF
He Is Acting Under an Order Issued
by Judge Johnson Of the
District Court.

DENVER, Colo, Dec. 24.-Judge john
son of the District Court to-day notified
the proprietors of poolroOms and bucket
shops operating in Denver and the Den
yer Mining Stock Exchange, through the
Sheriff, that they must discontinue busi-
ness at once. The pOelrOom operators,
who have been protected against the city
authorities by an injunction issued some
months ago by Judge Palmer of the same
court, say they will obey Judge John
sons order, as Judge Palmer's Injunction
does not apply to the county authorities.
The others affected, however, declare the
court has no right to make such order
in their case and that they shall open
for business as usual Thursday morning.
Besides the poolrooms the following were
served with Judge Johnson's notice to-
day:
Denver Mining Stock Exchange, L. M
Davidson, John G. Morgan, Brokerage
Company and W. B. Ray.
1t is said others will be served on
Thursday.
Judge Johnson said tonight that ne
should probably take no further action
in the matter until the cases have been
investigated by the Grand Jury, which is
now III session.

the assurances of DR.. Won Holleben the
German EmbasSador TO the United States,
with regard to the Venezuelan matter, in
dicate Germany's recognition of the Mon
roe doctrine in a more absolute manner
than has heretofore been done. 1t says
Germany bows to the Monroe doctrine,
and alludes to the expression Of the late
Prince Bismarck that the Monroe doc
trine was "a piece of impudence." This
utterance of the German statesman,
which is doubtless authentic, has Just
been published for the first time by the
Hamburger Nachrichten, Bismarck S
household organ. Nevertheless, the
Cologne NOlks Zeitung admits that "the
impudence of the United States is sue
ceeding brilliantly, and that Europe is al
ready accustoming itself to the idea of
the tutelage of the United States in South
America.
The Cologne Volks Zeitung concludes by
saying: Must Germany really ask
Washington's permission to collect 3,O00,-
600 marks from Venezuela? Must we
pocket all sorts Of warnings and con-

SEEK A NEW OWNER FOR
NEW YORK BASEBALL CLUB
spalding Wishes E. B. Talcott, a
Former Stakeholder, to Purchase
Freedman's Interest in Club.

ET06Qmdn'S s interest IN C1uD.
WASHINGTON, Dec. PA. G. Spald-
ing, who was elected president, secretary
and treasurer Of the National Baseball
League by a faction of that organization
at its last meeting in New York, had a.
conference to-day with Edward B. Tall
colt, one of the former stockholders in
the New York club. The object of the
resume his connection with the latter or
ganiZation and to endeavor, if possible
to purchase the interests of President
Freedman. Mr.. Spalding said in his opin-
ion nothing would so popularize the game
in New York as would the return of Mr.
Talcott to an active participation in the
sport IN that city Mr.. Talcott will take
the matter under consideration.
NEW YORK. Dec. M.-Delancey NicolI.
attorney for Andrew J. Freedman of the
New York Baseball Club, made public a
letter to-day replying to and commenting
upon the document addressed to the Ma
tional League clubs on Saturday last by
A. A. e; SPalding. The letter was addressed
clubs and was as follows:
You have called my attention to a let
ter received this day by you from Mr. A.
q. Spalding and have asked me what ef-
feet, If any, 1T has upon the present cou-
troversy. 1t seems to me that the letter
amounts to a withdrawal on Mr. A. G.
Spalding's part from the office of presi-
dent-secretary-treasu of the National
League, He informs you that he must
fG refuse Ito to act act further as President-secre
Iary-IreaSurer OF the National League ,
and goes on to say that 1t is up to each
club to do that which in it's Judgment
may seem best for it's own interests
This is in effect advice to the clubs to
shift for themselves. Mr.. Spalding was
never elected observation-disclosures
urer of the National League. His pre-
tended election was entirely without au-
thority. The courts have taken this view
Of it by issuing the injunction, and Mr..
Spalding seems to have come to the same
concluuSslon hlmself. Every act Of a part
took to elect president, director or other
officer, in the absence of a majority Of
that body, was illegal and the persons
who held their respective offices by such
authority are open to the charge of
usurpation of the functions Of the office.
ut does not seem to me necessary that
you should make any reply to Mr. Spal-
ding's communication of this morning.
The status Of the National League re
mains the same as it was before the pre-
tended election of Mr. Spalding as presi-
dent-secretary-treas
