Baltimore. July 17.-John j. Nc
Graw, representing Andrew Freed
man, and acting. it is believed, as an
envoy of the National league, on We'd
nesday secured II controlling interest
in the Baltimore baseball club. At
his instance POI shares of the 400
shares of the stock Of the company,
representing the holdings of John j.
Mahon, were transferred to Joseph
{. France, an attorney of this city.
Mahon's holdings included the shares
formerly owned by Robinson, Nc
Graw, Kelley and Rev. John G. Bo-
land, Catholic priest. The consid-
GRAFTON could not be learned.
Six of the Baltimore players were
released after yesterdays game.
-Four of them, Pitchers McGinnity and
Cronin, First Baseman McGann and
Substitute Bresnahan, left for New
York early in the evening. The
others, late Manager Kelley and Out
fielder Seymour, are expected to
leave to-day for Cincinnati. Great
pressure was brought to bear upon
Selbach and Williams to have them
sign with National league teams, but
they are under two years contract,
and unless they are released will re-
main in Baltimore.
Co-Manager Robinson was not in
the city last night. but personal
friends say that his playing days are
over and that he will take this OPP
portunity of retiring from the game.
1t was reported early in the even
ing that Ban b. Johnson, president
of the American league, was in the
city. but up to a late hour last night
his stopping place could not be locat-
ed. Friends who have been in close
touch with him. assert. however. that
he has been expecting this emergency
and claim that he is fully able to
meet it.
1t is probable that the game sched-
uled for to-day with St. Louis will be
allowed to go by default in order that
the Baltimore franchise may be de-
clared forfeited. Then the company
will be reorganized by the present
minority stockholders, namely. Vice
President Sidney S. Frank. Secretary
Harry Goldman and Theodore l..
Straus. With the help of President
Johnson, who holds a lease on the
American league grounds, it is ex-
pected that a full team will be ready
to continue the regular "chedule by
the close of the present week.
Washington, July 11.-President
Ban Johnson, of the American league,
expressed but little surprise when in
formed that McGraw had secured n
controlling interest in the stock of
the Baltimore club. He was little in
chned to talk of the future except
to say that he would give Baltimore
a team with which to finish the sea-
son in spite of the schemes of the
Baltimore people who, he asserted,
had connived at the downfall of the
league in selling out their stock to
the National league.

The big Strike Is Ended.

Chicago, July 17.-After ten days of
strife the Chicago freight handlers
strike terminated yesterday in VIC
tory for the railroads. \ meeting of
the strikers resulted in an almost
unanimous vote to return to work,
leaving the wage scale and other
questions for settlement between the
men and roads. After the meeting the
strikers went by hundreds to the
warehouses To apply for their old po-
sitions and the teamsters who re-
maincd out in sympathy again took
up their reins. by noon immense
quantities of freight, which had been
held back for days, were being rushed
to the railroads.

after his arrival at Cavite, where he

admiral was certain Aguinaldo got the

All this. of course, will prove Sc

FOR NOTHING BUT LOOT.
The Sole Purpose of AEuinHIdo in
Manila Laid Hare by Admiral
Dewey.

Admiral Deweys testimony before
the senate committee on the Philip.
pines has been of little comfort to the
He has failed to
regard Aguinaldo as patriot, and
he has upset several of the fanciful
theories constructed by the "antis" in
their effort to prove that faith was
broken with the Filipino leader.
Most surprising of all, perhaps, says
the Cleveland Leader, was the adj
miral's statement that the real sur
render of Manila occurred on May /,
1898, and there vas no Spanish resist
ance after that date. The city was not
occupied because there was no Amer
lean army to occupy it, but the Span
iards refrained from hostilities be-
cause Dewey had threatened to de-
That, of course, disposes of the theory
of the "antis" that Dewey asked for
and obtained the cooperation of
Aguinaldo's army to capture the city
The admiral said, furthermore. that
he had never recognized Aguinaldo
or saluted the Filipino flag. He had
made no alliance, directly or indirect
ly, with the Filipino leader nor had
he ever taken the time to read Aguin-
aldo's proclamations. They were sim
ply forwarded to Washington without
reading.
The democrats on the committee
tried to induce the admiral to say
that Aguinaldo had gone to Manila
to promote the independence Of the
Filipinos. "Since you have asked my

THREE DEMOCRATIC ISSUES.
lie Easily Defeated in Fall
Campaign.

Ostensibly the democrats will have
three issues in the congressional can
vass of 1902. Some of their leaders,
that is to say, are urging the party to
make a fight on trusts, Imperialism,
and tariff reform. Ex-Presiden Cleve-
land favored tariff reform in his great
harmony speech at the Tilden club
dinner, but nobody has been able to
find that the recommendation has
aroused any enthusiasm except
among the democratic enemies Of the
ex-president, who cast derision upon
him for his tariff record, as they do
for everything else which he has said
or done. Cleveland skipped imperial
ism. but some of the other democratic
magnates pretend they want that for
an issue. ustism, of course. will
come in for assault in the canvass,
says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
On all these issues the democracy
can be easily beaten. On tariff re-
form there is no approach to harmony
among the democrats. 1t is certain
that the country is not seeking any
tariff reform or wants any tinker
ing with the tariff in any direction.
On the trust question the republicans
have far better record than the dem
ocrats, for the republicans passed the
only antitrust bill ever enacted by
congress. and the republicans en-
forced that act and are enforcing it
now. The republicans will be exceed
ingly glad to see the democrats bring
the question of Imperialism forward.
That is an issue on which there are

Sentinel has been one of these from
the beginning. When the Sentinel
finds it advisable to differ with Mr..
Bryan and to lecture him on his fatu-

will the democrats of all other states
in which they hope To succeed, but
must fight to win. The south, which
