receive punishment. He is confident of
winning. and so Is Cans.

Georgetown Defeats AndOver.

The Georgetown College nine defeated the
Andover Academy team yesterday in the
little Massachusetts, village by the score OF
10 to 6. Fay and Cox did the twirling for
the blue and gray. and to these two trusty
lads Georgetown undoubtedly owes its VIC
tory, as but six safe hits were made off
their deliveries. while their support was
somewhat ragged Campbell and Mains did
the pitching for the academy team. and
Georgetown managed to register ten safe
hits. two of them being good for two bases.
Drill. Moran, Walsh and Fay were the only
Georgetown players to escape the error col
umn, but the failure of the opposing bats
men to mix their hits with the errors kept
them from winning out. The Andover boys
put up a good fielding game.

Pennsylvania Railroad Man May ne
General Manager.

There is in railroad circles strong
belief that the delay about the APP
pointment Ct a new general manager
for the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
is due to an intention upon the part
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
panv to have an important representa-
tive upon the official staff of the Bal
timore and Ohio. This does not
necessarily mean that the Pennsyi-
vania would endeavor TO place the
man of its selection in either the
second vice. presidency or the general
managership in fact, its policy in
the case of other lines in which it has
obtained an influential position has
been to promote men in the absorbed
lines for the purpose of stimulating a
healthy spirit among all the employees.
According to a railroad man who is
familiar with the conditions sur
rounding the case Of the Baltimore
and Ohio and its relations with the
Pennsylvania there is strong posi-
bihty, if not a PROBABILITY that Capt.
John P. Green, first president of
the Pennsylvania will becom Q
the chairman OF the board of directors
of the Baltimore and Ohio in place
of Mr.. William Solomon. Ii Penn
svlvania man should become general
manager of the Baltimore and Ohio
Mr.. L. f. Loree. general manager of
the Pennsylvania lines west of
Pittsburg, is thought to have a good
chance in connection with the gem
real managership. According to pre-
sent appearances however. there will
not be anything done about filling the
place of general manager until to-
ward the end of the Baltimore and
Ohio's fiscal year, which terminates
June 30.
Recent movements by the Pennsyl-
vania and the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroads have revived the report in
Pittsburg that the new union station
in that city will be used by the Balti-
more and Ohio and the Pittsburg and
Western as we'll as the Pennsylvania
lines.

MoundsviiIe Saloons are all Closed, VIII

Moundsville, W Va. May 3. There
is a contestz ON between the city
council and the eleven saloon-keepers
whose licenses expired Tuesday night,
which promises to lead to some enter
tanning experiments. The city coun-
Gil, with the idea OF raising more re-
venue, increased the saloon license fee
from $500 year to $500 The saloon
keepers refused to pay the price and
asked that the action be reconsidered.
The council met and re-affirmed its
action. The licenses expired Tuesday
night. and not one of the eleven
saloon keepers applied under the new
ordinance. No liquor was dispensed
YESTERDAY.
At meeting Tuesday, night, which
lasted well into the morning. the
saloon keepers determined that they
would try new plan. 1t was decid-
ed that the eleven saloons form COM
bine and open one big saloon in the
central part of town, pay the 5000
license fee. and run only the one
saloon in the city. The plan is
perfected, all but deciding the
division of profits. A plan for
settling this has been agreed upon and
the new saloon will be in operation
within week.
An accountant viii be called in TO
take the books of the various saloons,
determine from the sales of beer the
past three months the business done
by each, and on that basis determine
the interest each shall have in the big
saloon. The various saloon-keepers
will be employed by the new COM
bine as bartenders, and by this means
and the saving of S., 600 a year in
linoenses the new saloon is expected
TO be Immensely profitable, even
though it may not sell as much as the
aggregate of the eleven. Another
feature of saving will be the discon-
tinuance of the credit system entirely.
