Cincinnati Wanted Morgan.
Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.

FROM the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.
AS the days go by and none of the college
players that were expected to join the Reds
are coming in, it begins to look as though
there would be no influx of trained minds
Oh the team after all. There Is no reason
to believe now that Morgan, the Georgetown
College third basenian, who was SO earn
estly desired by the Cincinnati club, will
join the Reds this year. if ever. 1t seems
that Morgan and several of his team mates
were at the depot in New York when the
cincinnati team started for home. Mr.
Brush was there with his aggregation. and
when 1t was mentioned to him that Morgan
was in the station he asked to meet the col
iegfan. An introduction was speedily given
by Thielman, who Is friend of Morgan
Mr.. Brush, who had written to Morgan in
regard to an engagement, asked the young
man what he had decided to do assuring
MIN that the Cincinnati club would be
pleased to have him join the team Morgan
replied that he had had offers from several
other National League clubs, but that, I'M
DER no circumstances, would he play profess
slonai ball this Year. President Brush added
that II at any time he changed his mind he
could find berth with the Reds. And tina.

NEW LOGGING METHODS.
Steam and Electric Machines Used to
Haul Logs in Maine Forests.

Bangor Correspondence New York Tribune
A few wears ago, when some one suggest
ed an electric railway from Moosehead
lake I'D the valley Of the Allegash river, in
the very heart of the northern Maine
woods. the project was ridicued on every
hand as impossible Of execution in such
rough country. even il there would be any
business for the road when 1t should have
been constructed. Now. however trolley
system is in successful operation In the
Dead river region, in the toughest part of
Somerset county. and is engaged in hauling
heavy loads Of spruce 1ogs-a greater bur-
den than any ordinary electric line has to
carry.
The electric log hauler is the invention of
A. O. Lombard of Waterville. who is me-
chanical genius and has made fortune
from various inventions in the last ten
years. Some years ago Mr.. Lombard con-
ceived the idea Of building a steam log
Of the subject before he began work upon
the machine that he had in mind He found
that more than fifty years ago a Maine
man had built a steam log hauler. but that
it had failed to work on account of some
manifest faults in it's construction. This
first steam log hauler had a boiler and en-
CINE mounted upon a set of driving wheels
five feet in diameter, with spikes in the
rims Of the wheels to prevent them from
slipping. but when the machine was hitch
ed to a load of logs the bearing Of weight
was small a portion of the rims that
the wheels whirred around like those OF a
locomotive on wet rail, while the spikes
would dig SO deeply into the snow that the
machine would become stalled in hoilows
of its own making. and be unable to move
it's own weight, not to speak of load of
logs.
To obviate this difficulty Mr. Lombard
provided his machine with a sort of self
laying rail-a set of endless iags, carried
on ball bearings-which, while preventing
the wheels from digging into the snow, at
forls them a friction hold, giving traction
power sufficient to draw loads of logs ag-
gregating about 6O,G09 feet. The forward
end of the hauIer is carried by Sled to
which Is attached pole. A pair Of horses
is hitched to- this pole and driven ahead to
guide the machine. but the horses do NO
hauling.
