WHY LEACH rs A PIRATE
Magnate Dreyfuss Caught Tommy
When He Was About to Desert.

special from Pittsburg says that When
Barney Dreyfuss looked into the ewes OF
wee Tommy Leach and told him not onlv
about what he was then thinking, but told
him the contents of some private docu-
ments then in the inside pocket of the little
third baseman, Tommy threw up his hands
and sent his American contract and check
back to Cleveland by the next mall.
This Is the story which has come to light
in Pittsburg, and there is an all-around
laugh at the expense of the little third
baseman who loves to write The truth has
been uncovered through an interview given
by Leach just about the time the season
closed, published just now. In 1t Leach said
he was tired Of the Pittsburg management,
that President Dreyfuss even knew the con-
tents Of a telegram before he, Leach, got
1t himself Leach was inclined to think
there was something uncanny about the
Pittsburg game.
The situation which Leach could not figure
out is quite plain to many In Pittsburg Ger
tain sporting editors satisfied themselves
that Leach. IL not ringleader of the bunch
going to the American, was deep in the
game. To this Dreyfuss would not listen.
There were few fierce clashes between
Dreyfuss and the newspaper boys over
Leach. Just before the team left on its last
western trip sporting editor received some
private Information regarding Leach. "A well
known base ball fan in an American League
town asked him to meet sllim at certain
train on certain night. That night there
was the usual clash on Leach between

Man at It's Head.

The annual meeting of the stockholders
of the New York Base Ball Club, which Is
Incorporated under the laws of New Jersey
in the name Of the National Exhibition
Company, was held yesterday afternoon in
Jersey City.
The following board of directors was
elected: ]. P. Snyder. John B. Day. H. N.

ton. F. M. Knowles and John T. Brush.
The new members are Messrs Hampstead,
Lloyd, Knowles and Brush, who succeed
Andrew Freedman: E. C. Potter E. F. c.
Young and H. j.. Braker.
At meeting of the board of directors
John T. Brush was elected president and
F. M. Knowles secretary and treasurer. The
dropping of Freedman's name from the d.
rectory was a great surprise to base ball
men. Many think it only a paving of the
way for him to accept the presidency Of the
National League, which. it is reported. will
be rendered to him at the next annual
meeting of that body.

Methodists of Mt. Pleasant Call a
Pastor and Elect Officers.

A meeting of the Methodists of Mount
Pleasant was held last evening in the Savoy
parlorS, when detailed report was receiy-
ed from the committee appointed to secure
a suitable building and site. 1t had been
found that the old Congregational Church
building on Howard avenue had been sold
and was to be Immediately torn down. A
portion of the site on which it stands mad
also been transferred, and negotiations were
in progress for the remaining portion. The
purchaser of the building had offered to
sell it to the Methodists at very advanta-
geous price. and efforts were being made to
secure another location in the same neigh
bcrhood to which it could be removed. 1t
was believed that the matter could be ar
ranged and the building made ready for
services early in December.
A letter from Rev. Joseph Dawson was
read, in which he indicated his acceptance
of the invitation to take charge of the So
ciety and become it's regular pastor after

dent; Mrs. Frank B. Walker, secretary and
Mrs. Frank E. Warning, treasurer.
Mrs. Hit extended an invitation to all
Methodists to meet the Rev. Joseph Daw-
son at her home at such date as may be
determined later.

REDFERN's EARNINGS.
Little Jockey Will Take in About S4O.-
600 Next Season,

The facts and figures of w. C. Whitney's
purchase of Redfern's contract, as printed
yesterday, was the chief topic among horse
men at the Benning track yesterday after
noon 1t was while conjecture ran rife as
to the salary of Arthur that his father said :
you fellows are all guessing" Then
he paused. Suddenly he lifted his head
and blurted out: Il don't mind telling
you. now 1t is all over and cannot do any
harm, Arthur gets $4,000 from Mr. Whit
ney for next year and $4,000 for 1904 If he
renews the contract.
This amount is only retaining fee for
first call on his services. In addition he
will receive the usual riding fees of SIS for
winning and $40 for losing mounts This
sum will net 5000. Second call on his
services will be much, while outside
mounts will figure up about s15, OOO-s40, 600
in all.
His fees from horse owners who secure
him to ride when not regularly engaged
by his stable are very large. Take, for in
stance, the amount he earned at Bright on
Beach last summer. He made $1,000 Most
of the owners pay him an increase over the
regulation fee. In most instances he re-
ceives from $50 to $500 for winning mounts -

May Transfer Olympic Games.

Owing to a conflict of dates with the
games to be held by the Louisiana purchase
exposition, there Is strong possibility that
the Olympian games scheduled to take
place in Chicago in 1904 will be transferred
to st. Louis. Before such action can be
taken, however, the matter will have to be
submitted to a vote of the directors Of the
International Olympian Games Association.
Such vote, 1t was said, would be taken in
the near future.
The proposition for the transfer of the
games to st. Louis was made last nighe
at Chicago at a banquet given delegation
representing the Louisiana purchase expo
sition by Mr.. Henry J. Furber, president
of the International Oiympian Games Asso-
citation. The delegation, which was COM
posed of Gov. D. r. Francis, president OF
the exposition and number of prominent
st. Louis business men went to Chicago
to formally present the proposal to the
Olympian Games Association.
1t was said that a majority of the men,
bers Of the association were in favor of
the transfer to St. Louis.

Joe's brother, in Cincinnati last Sunday,
''but in view Of the fact that the club

four years since Joe Corbett retired from

than probable that Arthur Irwin, who UNI
pired for the National League last season
will be connected with the Eastern League
next season. He has two openings, one at
Providence and one att. Montreal. Irwin
says that he thinks thatsthe season of 1903
will be the best the country has yet seen.
1t Is circulated in Boston that Fred Ten

That there Is something in the story arises
from the fact that his best friends credit 1t.

visitor" The whole story came out and
Dreyfuss instead of waiting to catch Leach
or have him prove his innocence, took him
into the office the next morning and asked
him about the man who was coming so
quietly to see him.
The eyes of little Leach opened wide as
Dreyfuss showed him that he knew all
about his visitor. He had thought none
save himself and select few knew of his
coming visitor, and the idea that Dreyfuss

JACK ROOT WON.
Hart Fought Gamely, but Was Out
pointed.

Last night at the Lyceum Athletic Club,
Chicago, Jack Root Of Chicago was given
the decision over Marvin Hart Of Louisville
after six rounds of as hard fighting as was
ever witnessed In Chicago. Root had the
better of every round, Notwithstanding that
he received a severe drubbing himself. Hart
was down for the limit in the second round
and was saved from a knockout by the
gong.
Root got his left hand going early In the
first round and soon had Harris nose bleed
ing Hart was wild in his delivery in this
round and was unable to land on Root with
any degree of force. In the second round
Root began to use his right hand in connec-
ton with his left.
After jabbing Hart until the Louisville
man was staggering, Root crossed his right
to Harris jaw. Hart went down and re-
manned the floor until the referee count
ed nine. When he got up he was very weak
and resorted to clinching.
Root tried hard to fight him off and land
the deciding blow. Hart, however, had suf-
fcient strength left to protect himself and
managed to dodge several blows that had
they landed would have finished him In
the next round Hart began to try for Root s
abdomen and made a better showing. Dur
ing the last minute Of the round both men
went at 1t wildly and when the round end
ed they were both staggering Root was
bleeding from deep cut over the eve. while
both of Harris eyes were almost closed
The fourth and fifth rounds were fierceIv

we have decided this year to take precau-
lions this year to prevent any one securing
admission on a ticket issued to another
person. We are keeping a complete record
Of all the tickets issued. and on the even
ing Of the ball will have this list in the
hands of the doorkeeper, who will be in
structed to check on the name Of each per-
son who presents a ticket, to make sure
that It is in the hands Of the original
holder.
II there is any question the matter will
be referred at once to members Of the COM
mlttee in charge, who will be at the door
and who will verify the identity OF the
ticket holder. We hope that this will put
an end to the Unauthorized transfer of
tickets and make sure that no one obtains
entrance to the floor who has not been Of
