same class as the New Yorker. The painful affair is said to have taken place at Chicago last Saturday night, when McFadden and Gardner met in six-round contest. According to the story, McFadden, loftily concluding that Gardner was no fit opponent for him, declared that he would allow the German to stick for three rounds and then take his chances. Gardner went in and seeing McFadden all open in the third sneaked in blow that near ly put his man out and troubled him so much that Gardner handily gained the decision. McFadden denies the re- port and declares that Gardner simply caught him out of form. for which, of course, he can offer no good excuse. McFadden feelingly asserts he was really too ill to fight, and did so only to save $250 forfeit. Ill any event McFadden has placed himself in po- sition where boisterous laughter is pro- voked. If the double cross was perpe- trated, it would appear that MeFadden lacked a kind friend to inform him in advance. Erne was more fortunate.

 Tom Murphy held his job in Lynn shoe factory all winter. His earnings from polo were velvet"
 The Richmond, Ind, Item, states that Cusick, who formerly tended goal fo1 the defunct Plymouth team, is not making good in the western league and that he is nothing more or less than a grand stand player. Davy, at the pres ent time, may be on the 6,795 sleeper from Indiana, on his way back to New England.
 Dannie Daly, the fast rusher of the Worcester club, is giving Lewis a great run for first honors in the line of goal getting, says the Portland Ar gus Daly has improved wonder fully of late and is shooting as hard and accurately for the cage to-day as any man in the league. Daly has gained rapidly on Lewis in the past few weeks. and it would not be sur prising when the records are pub lished again if Daly should be in first place as a goal getter.

Their improvement since they opened shop in Clinton has been remarkable. A prediction at the time of their re- moval that they would be in third place at this stage of the game, would have been laughed at by the omnis- cient polo writers in other cities Lowell Mail.
 When the talk turns on rough polo playing, what do you think of the Sa- lem aggregation? There is Wodtke, the flying Dutchman, who is ever on the verge of an outbreak of temper: Whipple, one of the toughest of play CTS; Barney DOherty, the man who gets up at midnight to assault a punching bag just to keep in condition 10 scrap: O'Hara, who thirsts for gore at all times; and big Heffernan in the goal. who keeps the club in fancy circles while any player is in his vicinity Broclzton Enterprise.
 Lowell can thank Dickey Pierce in large measure for the teams fine showing, as it was the clever second rush who taught Lewis about all he knows.

ed in the middle portion of the season than was the case last year.
 The American league, in deciding to raise its price of admission, was com pelled to take that course by the wholesale engagement of National league players at exorbitant salaries. When the American started out as a 25 cent organization it was freely pre- dicted that, with expensive players under contract, it would be impossible to weather the gale. But the Ameri- can went through last season without a break ill the circuit, though on sew eral occasions it is said that at least two clubs were tottering. When more National league stars were snapped up last fall the critics could not see how the American could live through an other campaign and retain the 25 cent tariff. It was generally believed that as high as 4,500 and even $5,0O0 were salaries to be paid to players, so that few close observers could see how Ban Johnson and his friends could exist. But when c. w. Somers got out of the Boston Americans it was decided that radical move was in order, and it was not long before the American leaguers realized that 30 cent tariff was an absolute necessity, With the new tariff, as adopted at Detroit, in ef- feet, the American league is on par with the National league, for in the older organization there are 25 50 and 75 cent charges. The National league has never stipulated, however, the number of seats to be subdivided, so that the Brooklyn club, for instance, has a greater seating capacity for p cent patrons than it has for those who pay 50 cents. In other words. each National league club has been allowed to use it's own judgment, the Philadel- phia club, though being essentially q 25 cent club, in accordance with all precedent in that city. Tn deciding to increase the tariff, the American league men could not see why they should provide baseball by high-sala ried stars for less admission rates than those charged by the National league, of which a majority of the clubs have nothing left but minor league talent. The new tariff means that the Ameri- can league will not only live throulgh the coming season, but will also be for tified in it's plans to invade New York next fall, regardless of the National league.

CANADIAN ROWING CHALLENGE


 Toronto. On, March 1.-The Argo- naut Rowing clubs eight cared crew. with perhaps one exception, is now made up as it will represent the club in the race for the grand challenge cup at Henley next July, and s.rong as have been the representative crews the Argonauts have sent abroad in the past this will probably be the best that has ever done duty for the club. So confident are the officers that they will have the best crew in America this year that they are anx- ious for public trial against the pick of United States oarsmen. whether representing colleges or clubs.
 ''We have. the funds provided for the trip to Henley" said Captain Bar ker yesterday. sbut we do not intend to go if we have not good crew, the best in America. We would like to meet Yale, Harvard, Pennsylvania. Cornell or any of the big rowing col leges or any of the clubs in the States, and if any crew wants to try us there will be a S25O trophy for a race mile and a half straightaway on Toronto Bay any time between the middle of May and the first of June. We intend to leave on June II, but we will not go if there is crew in America that can beat us '"

RACE FOR CONNECTICUT.
Boralma May Meet The Abbot and
 Lord Derby at Charter Oak.


 Lord Derby at Charter Oak.
 New York, March 7.-When Boral- ma was matched against the two New York owned cracks, The Abbot. 2:O3A and Lord Derby, 2:061a, it was decid- ed to leave the scene of battle to be decided by sealed bids closing March l with the stakeholder.
 So far as has been learned A. T. Welch of Charter Oak and Oakley tracks at Hartford and Cincinnati was the only important bidder. It was rumored that Providence wanted one of the big plums of the trotting season, and ReadviIle, the home track of Boralma, was expected to be in line to secure one or both. New York was thought to be a favorable site. as both Boralma's competitors hail from here, and again as Boralma, never having raced here, should prove of himself a drawing card.
 Mir Welch and his partner. Orlando Jones, have offered, it is stated. 50 per cent of the gate and grand stand receipts, and leave the choice of tracks to the owners. That Charter Oak park would be favored seems to be the concensus of opinion. inas- much as local horsemen would attend largely, it being within easy riding distance of this city. Boralma was defeated there in fierce contest of i've heats by Lord Derby last fall. and a small fortune changed hands on the result The New Haven turfman. N. E Hubinger, it was then stated. net ted nearly $20,ooo by hedging on the Lord Derby end of the selling at an opportune moment. Mr Welch's offer will doubtless be accepted. MT Scan nell is agreeable to that site and NIr Smathers said before leaving for Palm Beach recently that he would race anywhere agreeable to MT Lawson.

MATERIALLY CONSIDERED,

While his preference for Chinese
servants to the exclusion of those of
Caucasian extraction who were will
ing and able to render him service
may be properly considered as indica-
tive of his sentiments toward the
large class of his own color who are
dependent upon honest toll as the
means of gaining their livehoCd, the
principal consideration in connection
with the candidacy of Mr.. Evans and
the one that should receive the most
serious and careful thought of the
people of Montana is his attitude as
regards economic matters of the ut
most Importance to them. Before de-
Gliding to give him their vote the men
whose suffrage he is asking should
r%carefully and earnestly consider what
they have reason to expect he would
DO for them in case he should be elect
ed. They should remember that he
stands as the candidate of the party
which as a national organization has
ever marked its possession of power
by the enactment Of legislation that
has proved injurious and detrimental
to the majority. They should bear in
mind that he is bound by the plat
form of his party, 10 matter what he
might like to do personally, and that
his vote would be found on the side
recording a desire for recurrence to
past conditions and situations. Should
MI. Evans be successful Montana
would be represented in both houses
OF congress by men at variance with
the policies and aims of the admin
istration and in direct opposition to
the wishes of the dominant party in
the legislative branch of the govern
ment. He could be depended upon to
vote as the others of his party voted
regardless of how it might affect the
interests of those whom he supposed
ly would represent.
Mr.. Evans, bound by his party's
policies, pledges and platforms, is of
necessity opposed to a continuance of
the policy which has resulted in in
estimable good to the state. He is
in favor of a recrudescence of the era
of low prices, idle workingmen, silenc-
ed factories and depopulated ranges.

sumed Indifference and independence
manifested by Baer and q few Others
at the conference, the operators have
awakened to a realization Of the pow
er that is back of the president and
come to understand that unless they
show scme signs of reasonableness
the time may Dor come when he or
some other will be clothed with au-
thority they dare no longer defy. They
may possess the power that almost un-
limited wealth bestows, but they also
appreciate the fact that behind the
president is the power of the people
and that should it come to a plain
struggle between the two it would
be easily to foretell which would be
victorious in the end.
A long step has been taken toward
that which the president believes
shall be done and the precedent he
has established is bound to be result

r STEP TAKEN.

The action of President Roosevelt
in using his personal and official in
fuence to- bring about a settlement
of the difficulty between the operators
and operatives of the anthracite re-
gions may be said to be the first step
in the direction of what he has been
advocating and is still advocating and
preaching on every possible occasion
government regulation of the trusts.
While it may be said that he had no
power to compel either the owners or
miners to act on his suggestion or
even to pay heed to his call for a con-
ference, the fact remains and should
net be overlooked that they did not
decline either. 1t may also be said
that in accepting the suggestion of a
board of arbitration the parties to the
conflict acted entirely on their own
volition and voluntarily agreed to
abide by the decision of that beard,
but this does not alter the fact that
