LETTER BY CAPTAIN, KIDD.
Notorious Pirate Tells of HiddeI
 Treasure In Boston Harbor.

Notorious Pirate Tells of Hidden
 Treasure In Boston Harbor.
 PROVIDENCE, R. l., Nov. 13.-A let ter from Captain Kidd, the notorious pirate chief, to John Bailey, Esq, of New York, which is believed to be gen uine has been deposited for safe keep ing with other papers in the office or the record commissioners of this city.
 The letter is 200 years old and is the property of Edward Field, q clerk of the municipal court of Providence, de- scendant of the Warmer family, which was among the first to settle in what is now the town of Warwick. It was found among family papers.
 Apparently the communication was written after the capture of Captain Kidd. It is dated Boston, 1700-O1, and it says in part:
 sI fear we are in bad situation. We are taken for pirates, and you must come to Boston as soon as you get this. There is no one I can depend upon. If I do not see you, I will tell you where my money is.
 Tt is buried on island in Boston harbor on the island in two chests, containing from f15,OO0 to f20,O00 in money, jewels and diamonds.
 'They are buried about four feet deep, with flat stone on them and pile of stones near by. There is no one that knows where it is but me now liy- ing.
 Ut is about < up the hillside. Don't fail to come to me as soon as you get this If I am gone to England, be there as soon as possible. Secure the money and diamonds before you come, as money will do great deal for us.

BASE BALL NOTES.

Harmony prevailed at the regular annual meeting of the New York base ball club in No 1 Exchange place, Jer- sey City, yesterday afternoon. The meeting was purely formal i'll charac- ter. and outside of the election of off cers no business of any consequence was transacted. No announcement was made of the amount of money the club made last season, but the sum is believed to be in excess of S40,000. An- drew Freedman was reelected presi- dent of the club and the old board of directors again were chosen. They are Andrew Freedman, Thomas l.. Hamil- ton, John B. Day, F. Clifford Potter, Valentine F. Snyder, Edward F. c. Young and Harry J. Braker. Freder- ick M. Knowles was reelected secre- tary-trea surer.
 For the purpose of heading off the American league magnates in their scheme for further expansion and to consider plans for new agreement be- tween themselves, National league mo- guls will have an important conference in New York i'll day or two This conference will be between Andrew Freedman, Frank Robison, John +. Brush, Barney Dreyfuss and A. H. Soden. Robison arrived yesterday and the others are expected to-day. Robi- son desires to keep the Johnson or ganization out of St Louis and will in- yoke the aid of his brother magnates to that end. Visiting clubs carried q great deal of money away from the Mound city last season. and they real ize that big inroads will be made in their receipts next year if the Ameri- 1.@ e.IxE f< fishing a club there. Johnson is not certain that his plan will go through. It has been hinted that the capitalist who was to back his St Louis venture has baked at the idea and that John son now is seeking the sinews of war elsewhere. Other important matters which will be discussed at this confer ence will be the jumping of players and the formulation of a policy to- ward the new National Association of Professional Base Ball Leagues.

 Handicap Match.

The Professor Agrees to Throw Kelly Six Times in One Hour or Forfeit s75-Kelly Posts $25 to Show His Good Faith-Dwyer Beaten Last Night in Worcester by Lundin- Other Wrestling News.
 Promptly at 10 o'clock this morning Prof Dwyer and his wrestling partner, G. Perrie. arrived at the Democrat of flee ready to talk business with John k. Kelly. Dwyer looked none the worse after his beating in Worcester last night John E. Kelly was almost as prompt as they were in getting into the office. for he arrived a minute aftec the other two. Kelly at once started the ball rolling; that he was there to do business, and the shorter the better for him. Dwyer was equally as curt. and he at once stated what he would do or forfeit to Kelly $75. He asked that Kelly put up q forfeit of S2o, anu Kelly was agreeable to this also. h fact, the local man was filled with cou- fidence and after the articles were signed he told Dwyer that he would show him on the night of the match that he was not up against the easy thing he believed. DWyer laughed and said he would be glad to see Kelly Ill good form, for he liked q good tussle. That is the way they separated, and the following are the articles of agree ment:

WITH THE PoLoISTS.

 Waterbury in New Haven.
 A meeting of the Connecticut polo league directors was held last night at the Hotel Garde, New Haven. The session was called to talk over the adoption of d schedule, a draft of which has been made. Except for trimming up the schedule to suit all parties, the league is all ready to start in on Thursday night. The managers could not all agree on the schedule last night, and another meeting will be held to revise it. The schedule for this week is as follows:
 Thursday, Nov Waterbury at New Haven. Meriden at Wallingford.
 Friday, Nov 15--New Haven at New Britain, Waterbury at Meriden.
 Saturday, Nov -Wallingford at
 ssDoe's Wild West Show" is the name now given the Lewiston team.
 Salem thinks that Portland has the greatest team of hard hitters in the business.
 Some of the Lowell papers are giving little space to polo now. Is the en- thusiasm there cooling already?
 Manager Harrington of Waterbury is still after Hipson. Better let him stay where he is until he wants to come.-Meriden Journal.
 The Meriden rink has been thorough ly cleaned and put in the best possible shape by Messrs Lush and Miller for the opening of the season.
 Somebody at Portland the other night said that Barney Doherty has hair like a bunch of flax. whereupon the blond halfback invited anyone in the hall to come outside after the game and talk it over with him.
 At the league meeting last night sev- eral cities made application to get into the league and Danbury was thought fayorably of. A committee is i'll that city to-day looking over the situation and in all probability she will be ad- mitted.
 Charlie Fitzgerald goes to Meriden to-day to play center with the team . there and act as captain. Walton will go with him. The Meridens are eager to get Mike Cashman i'll the goal. but at last accounts Sir Charles had not been able to locate him.-Brockton Enterprise.
 Evidently Hipson is playing the same game that he did before. but he will find that the local management does not intend to wait for him. A good rusher and star will be signed today and unless all contracts are signed at once there will be a lot of new faces on the local team. Mana ger Harrington is tired of delays and to-day something will be doing. Wodtke wouldn't go to Maine with the Salems because he has a job in the Waltham watch factory, and refused to give up the wages he would get there in order to make the trip down east. That is the worst of the old polo stars-most of them have sense, and can get a living without playing polo all the time. Consequently the man. agers never know whether they will show up at certain game or stay away. They are notably independent. l-Brockton Enterprise.

 the two best lightweight wrestlers ill the world. have been matched to meet in a handicap catch-as-catch-can wres- ting bout in three weeks. Charles Harvey, representing Bothner, and John Dunn, Parker's manager, met yes terday afternoon. Parker wanted to arrange match for the championship and $500 side. Bothner and his man. ager turned pale when confronted with this proposition, and after muttering something about their money being tied up in other financial enterprises. Dunn relieved them of their embar- rassment by announcing that Parker would meet Bothner in handicap match for gate receipts, Parker stipu- lating to throw Bothner twice within an hour or lose the match.
 Another match that was in the works in this city has fallen through Two hundred dollars has been posted with the sporting. editor by two busi- ness men i'll this city. who were back ing two Waterbury men against each other. A big Swede named Johnson was to be one of the principals. and he was to be matched against an un- known amateur of the city. All ar- engagements had gone on satisfactorily and two amateurs had been chosen, one of whom would meet the Swede The amateurs were James Wagner and George Lachance. In order to make the men get in condition and not allow them to give them the "cross' in the game, both men who bet the $1O0 each insisted that each one of the contest ants deposit $35 as guarantee of good faith. This both the Swede and the other two refused to do. Then the backers refused to continue the ar rangements longer and the money was handed over to them this afternoon.
 The contest between Hjalmar. Lun- din and Prof M. J. Dwyer in Worces- i ter last night ended disastrously for the professor. Suffering with a badly swollen hand, Dwyer attempted 10 have the match postponed, but Lundin insisted. A big forfeit had been post ed and Dwyer, sooner than lose it. cou- sented to go on. Lundin weighed i twenty-five pounds more than Dwyer and was q big, powerful man. It was this that told ill the struggle. There was a dispute over the referee. Dwyer insisting that the sporting editor of the Worcester Telegram act in that ca l pacity. This was finally agreed to and |
 the match began After wrestling twenty-one minutes, Dwyer. who out classed his opponent i'll cleverness, se- cured hold around Lundin's head and smothered him to the ground. It was not strangle hold. but was very sim l liar to hold he had on Kelly in the match here, when several of the spec tators called out that he was using the | strangle hold. The next two falls went to Lundin by strangle holds. Lundin saw that he could not throw Dwyer by cleverness so he adopted the strangle hold. In ten minutes he had it on Dwyer and when the fall was called Dwyer was unconscious. He remained in that condition for five minutes. After recovering he went or with the next fall and in eleven min utes more succumbed to another stran gle hold, and the match was over.

Yales Best Player is Barred From
 Playing.

Cambridge, Nov 13.-Harvard's prac- tice to-day was encouraging, although the men have not wholly recovered from the effects of the Pennsylvania game. In thirty minutes of play the varsity made four touchdowns against the second eleven. while the latter team, being given the ball on the var sity's twenty-five yard line, was unable to advance on twelve plays. The end running was good, but there was still too much fumbling. Lee and Camp bell both blocked punts and Campbell's resulted ill touchdown.
