WON'T BE BLUFFED.
Missouri Pacific Railroad Refuses to
Be Scared.

The Missouri Pacific Railroad COM
pany proposes to stand pat on its de-
NAL of the right of the board of rail-
way commissioners to compel it to give
a site for an elevator on it's right OF
way. The Marquette case, in which
ing on the request of the board, and
Judge Horton, for the Missouri Pacific,
informed the board of the company
decision.
1t was expected that the implied
threat of the railway commissioners to
compel the railway company to build a.
new spur to some elevator site outside
of it's right of way would bring the
company to time, and it was with this
idea in view that a rehearing was call
ed, but the Missouri Pacific company
refused to be bluffed, and it is now up
to the railroad commissioners to make
an order of some kind, or acknowledge
that it has no authority in the case.

scHAEFFER WON OUT.
Defeated George Slosson at Billiards
in Gotham Tourney.

New York, Dec. 11.-Jacob Schaeffer.
of Chicago, and George f. SIosson, of
this city, met in the deciding game of
the International ten-inch balk line bill
lard championship tOurnam ent at Mad
ison Square Concert hall last night, and
the Chicago man won by a score of 400
to 355- Schaeffer began very poorly,
missing some easy shots until the sixth
inning when he scored Is. In the
eighth inning Slosson made 80, which
placed him slightly ahead of his OPP
ponent. Schaeffer led at the end of the
tenth inning by 16 points, but four con-
secutive ciphers in his score altered this
until he had turned his second hundred.
In his thirteenth inning Schaeffer got
the balls into the middle of the table
and treated the spectators to a very
pretty run of billiards. His nursing
was excellent and it looked as if he
would overtake and pass Slosson in
this run, but he failed on a bank shot
from which he did not get either ball
out. His score was then 1879 to Slos-
sons 30. Slosson made forty-three in
his forty-second inning by fine all
round play. He avoided the center of
the table and did not seem to care to
adopt the nursing tactics of the Chicago
man. At the end of the forty-fifth in
ming the score stood 300 to 267 in favor
during the evening Schaeffer electrified
the spectators by the prettieSt and long
est run of the tournament This was
in his half of the forty-sixth inning and
the figures were Sixty-eight.
The worlds championship he won
few minutes later with successive runs
of 80, Is and 20, the last being unfin-
ished.
Schaeffer won the afternoon game
from Morningstar by ia points. The
play was fairly interesting, but the
game was long drawn out for it took
fifty eight innings to decide the match.
Each man played brilliantly at times,
but towards the close of the game
Schaeffer's work was by far the better.

The National Ball League Loses
TWenty-six Stars.
American Organization After
Its Best Players.
TO LEAD NEXT SEASON.
Continuation of the War LIS
Heartily Deplored by All.
The Older League Acts Like a
Body Dazed.

Cincinnati, Dec. 1.-THE Commercial
Tribune says
: Twenty-six National League players
have been signed by the American
league. This Is the exact extent of the
raids made by the junior organization;
in the ranks Of the senior body up to
date. There are excellent prospects
that this number will be increased to
thirty or more before the umpire calls
play again There may be a doubtful
Thomas or two among these players,
but there is no question that every sin
gle one OF them has signed a contract
with and received advance money from
the American league clubs.
Yet in the face of all this, the Ma
tionaI league has been standing still. No
effort has been made to fight the enemy
with its own fire, nor has a single bar
rier been thrown in its way. Some 0I
he National league clubs have made no
effort to sign players since the season
closed, while others have satisfied
themselves with getting a few raw
American league lines up its teams next
spring 1t will outclass the National
league, artistically speaking, and will
in every other way be at least its equal.
The American leagues fight is a
popular one. The war existing in base
ball today, every skirmish of which has
been won by the junior league, was
forced on it The National league has
only itself to blame for the losses it
has suffered. Had the National league
granted the modest request Of the
American league year ago and given
it Idle territory Washington and Bal
timore there would be no conflict to-
day. It was not a gift that the Amer
lean league asked for, but chance to
buy, which was refused. The war was
the result though the first blow was
, struck by the National league. when the
Boston club made an effor- to sign Dick
Padden, an American league player
Strange as 1t may seem, the men who
control the destinies of the National
league have not yet awakened to the
fact that its rival is a formidable one
The American people who support the
National game want two major leagues
to be in the field. Under these condf-
lions the game has seen its very best
days. Under existing conditions there
is great danger of one league being
dealt the knockout blow. Up to date
the National leeg que is the groggy one.
Peace would mean two leagues for
many years to come and prosperous
baseball There would be peace today
but for the vanity and false pride of
some Of the magnates.

OIL FOR
Santa Fe Testing the Beaumont Liquid
Fuel for Enuines,

Several Of the most prominent of the
Texas railroads seem to be determined
20 adopt oil as their fuel for motive
power. II the liquid proves satisfac.
tory from tests now being made and
those In prospect. The Santa Fe sys-
vem already has N engine burning oil
as an experiment. Probably the next
road to try the experiment will be the
International and Great Northern. II
is understood that the Higgins oil
company Of Beaumont has shipped II
car Of the liquid to Willis to be used
In making tests on one OF the cOmpa.
ny's engines. II the test proves that
the oil Is a satisfactory fuel ON loco
motives and can be employed more
economically than coal, it is safe to
assume that the entire system, or as
much OF the system as practicable, will
be equipped with oil-consuming loco
motives.
