MAY INVADE PITTSBURG

Johnson, the president of the American
League In Cleveland last night Il see Mr..
Dreyfuss says he had no objection to our
coming after his players and bidding fairly
for them, but that he did object to what he
claimed were gumshoe methods" continued
Mr.. Johnson; but what did he expect
that We were going to have several brass
bands at the station to meet us-that we
should have let him know week In ad-
vance that we were coming? His remarks
surprise me. We went to Pittsburg to look
over the ground, so as to De prepared to in

American League holds It's annual meeting

of the members of the Pittsburg team, and
can safely say that If we place a team in
Pittsburg some Of the men now drawing
salaries from Mr.. Dreyfuss will be members
OF that team. Those that we talked with
like the American League. and. as they also
like Pittsburg. we will allow them to re-

FIRST CASE AT THE HAGUE.
Dispute Between United States and
Mexico to Be Arbitrated

A special to the New York Tribune from
London today says: The peace congress Of
The Hague left behind 1t a complex arbi-
tration machine which will be brought into
use for the first time next week. A dis
pute between the United States and Mexico
involving claims amounting to 81. 800, 600, is
the case submitted to the International
court. The origin of the controversy is an
endowment made two hundred years ago
for the benefit Of the Jesuts and other re-
igious orders when California and Mexico
were Spanish possessions Settlement was
made after the confiscation of the religious
properties by the Mexican republic, and
there was prolonged consideration of the
evidence before the mixed claims commits
sion in Washington. The claimants are va
rtous Roman Catholic bodies in California,
who complain that interest payments have
been suspended by the Mexican government
since 1873. when the commission finished its
work. Two arbitrators had been selected
by the American government from the lists
of the permanent tribunal at The Hague
and two by the Mexican government, and an
umpire will be chosen in the course of a few
days. The case will be opened by two at
torneys representing the United States gov
ernment, and they will be supported by spe-
cial counsel, including Henry B. Armes
and others. who have made a close study
of the evidence. The Mexican government
will have the same privileges in presenting
defence. The proceedings will begin about
the 1st of September, and are likely to last
several weeks. The cooperation of all the
governments represented at the peace con-
gress was secured long ago in setting up
the mechanism for the adjudication of in
ternational disputes and the prevention of
war, but the wheels have not moved be-
The tribunal will now have its first prac-
teal trial.

The Telephone Surgically Used.

FROM the SCientinc American.
According to a London medical journal,
several London hospital surgeons are now
using the telephone whenever they have
occasion to probe for bullets or other me-
tallic objects imbedded In the body OF a
person. The receiver of the telephone is
placed on the head of the operator. and the
patient is placed in the usual manner, in
contact with a plate, the general medium
employed being wet sponge or some
paper saturated with a saline solution,
which is spread over the plate. The latter
is connected with a telephone by wire. and
the probe, after 1t has been introduced
into the body, vibrates as soon as the for
eign metallic substance comes in contact
with it The probe is also connected with
the telephone by a wire, and thus no such
blunder is possible as sometimes happens
when an ordinary battery is used. When
a telephone is used in this way, the plate
acts as one pole and the probe as the other.
Needles. bullets, grains Of shot and pieces
Of steel and copper have been easily To-
Gated by use of this simple method. The
only instances when the telephone does not
work satisfactorily are when the objects
to be located are of the same metal as
the probe. French and German surgeons
have been following these experiments in
London with the intention Of introducing
the same method into the hospitals OF Ber-
lin and Paris.

4 Years Work From Paset

Jack Joyner is now the highest-priced

world. He signed a contract at Saratoga
yesterday to take charge of and devolop
the thoroughbred yearlings that Sydney
Paget bought this spring For this he will
receive 10000 year. the largest amount

train Mr.. Pagets horses next year. Under
the terms OF the contract Joyner will take
charge of the yearlings the 1st of Decem-
Der, two weeks after the regular racing
season Is closed.

of thoroughbreds In America. During the
past decade he has had charge of the thor
oughbreds owned by August Belmont. Perry
Belmont and David Gideon. He has won a
number OF important races with a few
horses, the most notable of which was
Ethelbert, winner OF the METROPOLITAN
handicap as three-year-old.
Rumor was rife at Saratoga last night
that Sydney Paget will have a large string
OF tnoroughbreds next season, and that the
yearllngs he secured this spring are only a
small portion of the horses that will run in
ms name 1t Is reported that he does not
own the horses outright, but that he will
act as partner or agent for James r
Haggin, the multi-millionatre breeder of

won, looked simple one, considering that
he took the 2.13 trot at Detroit and the 2 16
trot In Cleveland against fields that did NOT
make him reach top speed.
The stake record of 2.0s was safe yester-
day, but with close finishes 1t might have

The racing card Of five events was inter-

ton OF the track was not spoiled. The first
event, the 2.21 trot, was won by the favor
tte, Kwanon, in straight heats. The Mas
sachusetts stake came next with seventeen
starters. Before the field lined up for the
first heat Starter Walker cautioned fhe
drivers to get away quickly, with the ex-
ceptional result that the word was given
the second time the horses came to the
wire. .S
Ruth M. had the pole, but Major De,mar
took 1t at the quarter, with Lady Thsha

The outburst Of French feeling against
Germany that took place at the celebration
of the anniversary Of the battle Of Mars
la-Tour (or vionville), fought August L.

respondent telegraphtng from Strasburg.
Many Inhabitants Of Lorraine crossed the

monies. Bishop Turinaz Of Nancy, address,
ing these persons. said:
you come across the border in spite Of
German cannon and in spite Of the unhap-
piness hanging over your provinces to show
here, on French soil. your unshaken fidelity
to the old fatherland. Through your very
presence you ask the silent but eloquent
questions: How long shall we wait for you?
When will you come to liberate us?"
Gen. Cuny, who followed, said:
Comrades Of 1870: You have come here
in order to send fraternal greetings across
the Moselle and Voges to those whose
hearts remain French and say to them
that your hope Of the future which will
wipe out the defeats OF the past will never
die"
