Food for the Fans.


A painful boil which has been giving
Manager Halter considerable trouble was
lanced yesterday and he expects to be in
playing condition within a few days. The
boil was on his right breast and prevented
him from STOPPING running or throwing.
For the past ten days the Birmingham
players who have come from the north
and east have been practically put out
of playing condition by the change in
drinking water. Their systems have been
torn up and it will be several weeks be-
fore they become thoroughly acclimated.
All of the men, however. expect to be in
shape for fast playing by the time the
Cleveland American team arrives for
two days run.
Matinee and baseball girls stand little
show of making hits with the Coal Ba
rons this season as most of the men are
married. Among those who are going life
double are; Halter. Smith, Sorber,
Warren and Moss. If the others are
not bachelors they have kept it secret.
Campbell, the great lefthand pitcher,
yesterday showed the few faithful fans
that twirling was not the only business
on which he was wise He played in right
field and the way he nabbed flies from
second base back to the fence would
put a hard look on the face of several
of the old timers.
Mr.. Howard S. Williams of the Annis-
ton Star was in Birmingham few days
ago and he says the team his town will
patch up to meet the Coal Barons will
entertain most any of the leaguers. He
also declared Admission expected to get at
least one of the games.
A report from Atlanta says that George
Leidy. the old Birmingham outfielder,
was having considerable trouble getting
in condition for the coming season. He

has Just recovered from spell OF SICK
ness and his system is badly run down.
His name did not appear in the playing
list during the Boston game but he UNI
pired the series with entire satisfaction
to both teams and the spectators.
An official call for a meeting OF the
Association of Rooters will be issued
sometime during the present week so as
to prepare for the Cleveland games. The
board of directors deem 1t very important
that the rooters have some preliminary
work as we'll as the players 1t Is not
known yet who will undertake the job
of unpiring those two games. Suffice It
to say his life will be like bed OF roses.
Baseball is sure to be in bad mess
again this summer with the two big
leagues fighting each other. From now
on it will be war. real red war to the
finish and 1t will be a survival of the
fittest, or the organization with the most
money

lentless war on the American League.
and will go after the stars in its rival
teams regardless of expense. If the Ma
tionars plans are carried out Mack S
PHILADELPHIA team will lose its best men.
The war fund of the National League is
500. 000.
According to report, the assertions of
Mcclure and Sheckard from Brooklyn,
coming, as they did, just before the
opening of the season, were the straws
that broke the hitherto patient and re-
sistless National League eamers back
In consequence the magnates went to the
meeting, held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel,
New York, prepared to contribute their
quota of zig war fund.
Commenting on the desertion of Sheck-
ard, Ned Hanlon grew warm and made
the significant remark:
81 wonder what would be the result il
/ should take a fat roll of about s15,00(
and go after some of the American
League stars?'

POPE TO BE REPRESENTED.
VIII Send Special Missions to Corona
ton of Edward.

Rome, April SIN spite of the oppo-
siton of Cardinal Rampolla. the Papal
Secretary of State the pope has decided
to send special missions both to the cor
onation of King Edward and to the fes-
-tivities Of Spain attendant upon the en-
throning of King Alfonso.
The Cardinals opposition to the send
ing of the mission to England was based
on the fact that the British Parliament
did not change the anti-Catholic formula
for the accession oath, and Mgr. Merry
Del Va, whom the pontiff designed to be
chief of the mission, openly refused to
go while the present wording of the
oath is made Nevertheless. the mission
will be sent and will probably arrive in
London few hours after the religious
ceremony.
There will be a REPETITION of the diplo-
matte maneuver carried out at the cor
onation of Car Nicholas II at Moscow
The question of the advisabilty of send
in a Papal mission to Spain was due to
the compromise effected by the Queen
Regent in nominating the Spanish Am
bassador to the Vatican as her represen-
tative at the Popes jubilee. Under ordi-
nary circumstances a royal prince would
have been appointed, but he would have
been obliged also to go to the Qurinal,
thus creating a situation full of unpleas-
ant possibilities. His Holiness was
much pleased at this step and decided to
be represented at King Alfonsos festivi-
ties by the Papal Nuncio, at Madrid.
The matter was smoothed over, how
ever, and it is now understood that Spain
will send a grandee with an important
retinue to specially invite the Pope to
send representative, who will probably
be Cardinal Van Nutelli or Cardinal
Cretoni, both former Nuncios at Madrid

MANY of those who had voted against
the motion on the rising vote changed
their attitude when they were placed on
record, and the friends of reciprocity won
an easy victory
Committee of the Whole.
Accordingly the House went into COM
mitteo of the whole, Mr. Sherman of New
F. FORK in the chair. 1t was decided that the
time should be equally divided for and
against the BILL
Mr.. Payne then began his argument
In opening he pointed out the peculiar re-
lations existing between the United
States and Cuba growing out of the Span
ism war to which he remarked inciden-
tally he had been opposed and the limita-
lions placed upon Cuban Independence
by the Platt amendment and the obliga-
lions which Ii placed upon the United
States. 1t was our duty he agreed to see
that the new government was started I'M
der the better auspices and to do all in
our power to make the experiment sue
cessful He then proceeded to describe the
industrial conditions in Cuba growing out
of the depression of the sugar industry
upon which the propriety Of the island
rested.
If Cuba was to have a chance to be-
come free and Independent republic he
declared that it was absolutely to tide
her over the present crisis The 20 per
cent reduction would save the planters
from bankruptcy until the removal of
the bounty system in Europe which the
Brussels conference abolished to take
effect September l, 1908. 1t was hoped
this would result in the return of sugar
to its normal price.
Mr.. Payne declared that he had not
been ready to make this concession until
he became convinced that it would injure
mo American industry. He charged that
a portion of the opposition to this bill
was in reality seeking to bring about free
trade with Cuba. 1t was notable that
Mr.. Payne addressed his remarks almost
entirely to those Republicans who are
opposing reciprocity. He seldom even

SENATE.

Washington, April S.-A vigorous pro-
test was made In the Senate today by Bsr.
Cullom Of Illinois against the passage of
the Chinese exclusion bill in its present
form. Coming from the chairman of the
committee on foreign relations the pro-
test made deep impression on the Sem
ate Mr. Cullom, while expressing him
self as in favor of the exclusion of Chi
nese Iaborers, said that many of the pro-
visions of the pending measure were in
contravention Of our treaty obligations
with China.
Mr.. Patterson of Colorado and Tir. Per-
Fins of California supported the pending
bill, maintaining that in no way did 1t
contravene existing treaties, as by the
convention of 1894 China had agreed that
Chinese laborers should be excluded from
this country.

that he would try to amend it by increas-

The early potato market is as dead
as last years pumpkin crop. A year
ago farmers who had early potatoes to
sell were kings Of the highway and the
potato buyers took their hats off to
them, and better still, paid them over
q dollar bushel for their, potatoes,
but alas, it is different now. The
southern and eastern markets are
loaded with potatoes at present and
there was: a big slump in prices last
week, as there were lot of spuds
rushed to market. Farmers in this
locality are too busy at present to fool
with the potato crop at present prices,
and buyers could get very few potatoes
if they wanted them with prices as
they are to-day. The terrible floods in
the lower Mississippi valley from Keo-
skuk to St. Louis will ruin lots of pota-
toes, and it is. the opinion that potatoes
will be- much higher within sthe next
sixty days. ~.
