TOO MUCH GOOD CHEER
FRED LYDHS RIOTOUs CELEBRA-
ton ENDS BEHIND THE BARS.

Fred Lyde, living at Fairfield and State
streets, was arrested shortly Lefore
midnight last night on the charge of be-
ing drunk and disorderly. 1t is alleged
that Lyde came home drunk last night
and that he proceeded to make things
lively around the house by breaking
dishes and throwing the furniture
around. His wife claims he threatened
to kill her with an ak, and she became
frightened and ran to a neighbours house.
occupied by Mrs. Coan, for protection.
Lyde followed her, but was met at the
door by Mrs. Coan who interfered in be-
half of the wife SLyde seeing Mrs Coan
was trying to protect Mrs. Lyde seized
her and threw her to the floor. He tore
most all of her clothing from her body
before an officer arrived and placed him
under arrest.
The officer had been called to the Lyde
home earlier in the evening to try and
quiet him, but Lyde's determination to
create a disturbance finally landed him
behind the bars at the Ducas street police
station

The commission is confident that good
results will come from the establishment
of a trade school in Manila The object
of this school is to train Fflipinos for
useful trades. The teachers are from the
United States There is demand from all
parts of the islands, the commission says,
for instruction i'll manual training and
the trades. The commission also believes
that good is resulting from the establish
ing of a school of agriculture in the ISL
and of Negroes
1t is impossible, the report says, to ac-
curately estimate the number of Filipino
pupils now receiving instruction from
American teachers, but 1t believes fully
10000 pupils are in the schools through
out the islands. Not fewer than 10000
adult Fflipinos are receiving instruction
In English in private schools, conducted
by American teachers.
Notwithstanding the large number or
American teachers in the islands the de-
mand is by no means fully met. seven
hundred and -siXty-nine teachers from
the states have been so assigned. In
view of the unsettled conditions the
commission says it is deemed expedient
in the immediate future to conhne ap-
pointments of teachers to young men, OF
whom 200 or 800 more, well trained and
of good character and willing to endure
some discomfort and hardship can be
employed to advantage.
The commission believes it would be
wise to send Filipino ooys to America
for education. 1t regards this as the
quickest and surest way for Filipino
to acquire the English language and ar
rive at an understanding of Western civ
ilization as it exists in the United States.
1t notes that many propositions have
been made looking to the use of the in
sular government funds for this pur-
pose, but up to this time 1t has been
deemed inexpedient to use public money
In that way. The commission believes
that when the public schools are thor-
oughly organized 1t may be well to hold
out the privilege of some years in an
American institution of learning as q
record for extraordinary achievement on
the part Of proficient pupils in the public
schools Of the islands

GUN PLAY IN WEST VA.
INTOXICATED MEN START ROUGH
HOUSE IN DINGESS.

WILLIAMSON, w. Va, Dec. 24.-Sev-
eral Logan county men road into Dingess,
a few miles west of here, today, and
while intoxicated rode up and down the
business streets, firing revolvers at ran
dom. The citizens fed in terror as the
plate glass windows were being cracked
by flying bullets. In the party were
Walter Adams and John Mullens, half
brothers. Constable John Dillon arrived
later and attempted to arrest the men,
when a regular street duel occurred,
probably twenty shots being fired. Con-
stable Dillon and John Mullens were
killed instantly, and Adams was slightly
wounded. The latter mounted his horse
and rode rapidly to the interior. Dillon
is prominently known. The excitement Is
intense, and should Adams be captured
a lynching may occur.

WHOLE SQUARE BURNED
DISASTROUS FIRE VISITS CONNELS-
WILLIE, PA.

coNNELsvILLE, Pa, Dec pal
most an entire square was Destroyed by
fire here today. The loss is conserva-
lively estimated at $4,000. The insurance
in many instances does not half equa! the
loss The fire lasted from until .
o'clock, and for several hours 1t looked
as if all the dense down-town district
would be wiped out. By hard and heroic
work the fremen kept the flames within
the confines of one square, which is
bounded by West Main street, Arch street
and Orchard alley. The square was own
ed by the Wilkey estate and the build
ings were occupied by about thirty ten
ants. nearly all Of whom were burned
out.
The heaviest loss is the furniture store
of B. P. Wallace, which was entirely
destroyed This stock was valued at
S3S. 900, and was insured for only about
81. COO It was in this store that the fire
was started by some children. The fire
started in a rear wareroom and Soon
communicated to surrounding buildings.
C. E. Schmidt's racket store was dam
aged to the extent of $4,000; fully in
sured. The loss to other property Is esu-
mated at $4,000. Many private families
occupying rooms over the stores lost all
their household effects. Tonight the fire.
men are still watching the fire, as they
fear the wind that Ia blowing from the

"Terrible Terry and Harris Have
Their Little Differences.


NEW YORK, Dec. A.-From remarks
dropped by Sam Harris, manager of Ter
ry McGovern, in the presence of a
number of horsemen and sports on the
Brooklyn speedway, it appears there is
trouble brewing between McGovern and
his manager and that the two will soon
go different ways. Harris does not fancy
the way in which McGovern is handling
himself, and says that unless he takes
better care of himself he will Quit him.
It is no secret that since his defeat by
Young Corbett on Thanksgiving day Nc
Govern has not given his health and COR
dition the best of care. McGovern Is fat
and his skin has not the healthful glow
of conditioned athlete.
Harris, who has been disconsolate since
McGovern was dethroned by Young Cor
bett, said: Terry will have to leave fast
horses alone or else l will quit him. No
athlete can stick to horses and enjoy
himself and keep in trim
Harris was emphatic and impressed his
hearers that he meant every word he
said.
McGovern is matched to meet Dave
Sullivan on January 30, and bids for the
fray are to be opened on December 80.
According to all accounts, McGovern, by
this time, was to have begun work for
the mill, but it is understood he has not
exercised bit as yet for the contest
Sullivan is laboring diligently and is said
to be in excellent condition.
It was through Harris plotting, many
sports think, that McGovern was able to
get to the top of the ladder Three years
ago the pair signed a contract in which
it was stipulated that Harris was to look
out for McGovern's interests for GER
tain period. 1t is understood the time
will soon expire and that the contract
will not be renewed. McGovern has
made money, and is credited with being
worth $4,000.

BOTH WANT WILLIE KELLER.
Crack Fielder Desired by Hanlon
and Dwyer.

and Dwyer. G.
BALTIMORE, Md, Dec, 24.-Wiliie
Keller, the crack little fielder, has be-
come bone of contention between Ned
Hanlon and Frank Dwyer, owing to the
latters efforts to secure him for the
Detroit team.
Hanlon realizes Joe Kelly will more
than likely play with Baltimore next
season, and for this reason he is anxious
to keep Keller. Hanlon says Dwyer has
offered Keller $1,000, but that the Brook
Ign owners are prepared to make play
to keep the crack little fielder at any
fancy figure. Should Kelly's father-in-
law however, get stock in the Baltimore
club, Keller may be induced by an offer
of a stock interest to return to his old
comrades, McGraw and Robinson, as he
has time and again said he would rather
play with Baltimore than any other club
in the country. McGraw has card up
his sleeve which he is guarding carefully,
and he declares he will surprise the peo-
pie of Baltimore next season. There is
evidently deal on foot involving several
of the finest players in either league
Hanlon declares if he can retain Keller
the Brooklyn will have the best team in
the National league, excepting possibly
Pittsburg. He has filed up the breach
made by the jumping of Tom DAILY to
Chicago by signing a second baseman
who is recommended as being as clever
a batter as Keller. The new second base
man is Californian. Hanlon refuses to
disclose the players name at this time,
as he has not actually signed.
Hanlon denies the report he has signed
Outfelder Flournoy of the Providence
club, as he Is supplied with four out
fielders, not including Keller. These are
Sheckard Dolan, Hildebrand and Ward
For the infield Hanlon has Turner at
first base Dahlen at short, Gochnaur and
Wheeler for third base, and the Cali
fornian.
Asked if he would accept the presi
dency of new club in New York, Han
lon says he would provided the directors
of the Brooklyn club considered it to the
best interests of the game to let him go.
If not, he will remain. 1t is evident

WAR IN THENATIONAL
ATTORNEY NICoLL SAYS SPALD.
ING'S ELECTION WAS NOT
LEGAL
CLUBS ARE ALL UP IN THE AIR
Different Organizations Are Advised
TO Shift for Themselves and
to Do the Best They
M Can.

NEW YORK, Dec. A.-De Lancey Mic
oil, attorney for Andrew J. Freedman, of
the New York Baseball club, made public
a letter today replying to another COM
menting upon the document addressed to
the National league clubs on Saturday
last by A. q. Spalding. The letter was
addressed to the Boston, Cincinnati and
St. Louis clubs and was as follows:
You have called my attention to let
ter received this day by you from Mr.. A.
G. SpaIding and have asked me what et-
feet, if any, it has upon the present con-
Jroversy. 1t seems to me that the letter
amounts to a withdrawal on Mr.. Spald-
ing's part from the Office of president
SECRETARY TREASURED of the National
league. He informs you that he must re-
fuse to act further as president-secre-
tary-treasurer of the National league,
and goes on to say that it is up to each
club to do that which in its judgment
may seem best for its own interest This
effect is advice to the clubs to shift for
themselves
Mr.. Spalding was never elected presi-
dent-secretary-trea of the National
league. His pretended election was en-
tirely without authority. The courts have
taken this view Of it by issuing the in
junction, and Mr.. Spalding seems to have
come to the same conclusion himself.
Every act of a part of a national league
by which it undertook to elect presi-
dent, director or other officer in the alb
sence 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.
so far as the court proceedings are
concerned, the record is as follows:
MIR. Spalding has just declared to the
reporters, in an interview at the Fifth
avenue hotel, that he had obtained an
opinion to the effect that his election in
all respects was legal. The words were
hardly out of his mouth before he was
served with an order to show cause why
an injunction Should not be issued
against him on the ground that his pre-
tended election was illegal. A few days
later he came ir court, and, by not OPP
posing the injunction, admitted it was
impossible for him to defend his title to
the office. Under these circumstances it
does not seem to me necessary that you
should make any reply to Mr.. Spalding' 5
communication OF this morning. The
status of the National league remaine the
same as it was before the pretended cleo
ticn of Mr.. Spalding as president-secre-
treasurer.

kind of argument. some word may be
uttered here that will bring you gentle

You have been in a fight with the

Dale Gear Talks of the Players Or

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Dec. 24.-Dale
Gear, the secretary of the Baseball Play
ers' association, admits that things in
that organization are not going as well
as they might. The Players union has
practically been asleep for several
months. Many of the members have re-
fused to pay their dues, and in this way
have done what would in time tend to
disrupt the association. 1t appears that
the men who have jumped over the
traces have been the older players. Ham

them In st. Louis there appears to have
been a blunder somewhere. Several Of
the players paid their dues to another
member of the team, with the under
standing that he was to forward the
same to the secretary. He has not done
so, and has refused to answer letters in
regard to it. Under such conditions the
players organization cannot expect to
make much of a stand and Secretary
Gear has set about to remedy these de-
fects. His circular letter is partly for
this purpose.
