GREAT MARKET CITY.
SistersviIIe Equal to Wheeling or
Pittsburg for Home Prod
ucts of a General Va
rietV,
riety.

1t Is simply amazing the Quantity
of vegetables and produce that IS
disposed of In this city daily.
Hucksters from the surrounding
country bring their products to this
market In preference to shipping
to Wheeling or Pittsburg. Many
of them travel a distance Of forty
miles, coming by rail-, river, over
land In vehicles and on horseback.
The B. & O. railroad also brings
by express each morning large
consignments Of vegetables, fruit
and produce of general variety.
Perhaps the most extensive gar.
deners that visit our city are the
Messrs. fisher Bros. of Hannibal,
Ohio. They have been engaged In
the business for many years, and
have prospered beyond expectation.
Their trade III this city reached
such proportions that 1t became
necessary during the season for
them to build a gasoline launch to
transport their products here.
During the early part OF the season
they came every morning, but at
present only come twice a week
Tuesday and Friday mornings.
Yesterday morning their load
consisted of 80 bushels OF toma'
toes, for which they received
forty cents psr bushe!; sixty
quarts of lima beans, Sc per quart;
IS baskets of grapes, I5c per basket;
bushels of string beans, 9oc per
bushel; a dozen egg plants, 6oc per
dozen; 20 dozen cucumbers, nc per
dozen: 5 bushels beets, 9oc per bu.;
6 bushels of turnips, Goo per bushels;
S bushels jelly apples, soc per peck;
6 bushels cooking apples, 4oc per
bushel; 10 barrels cabbage, 81 per
barrel; $ bushels eating apples Coz
per bushel; I bushel peaches 81 so;
bushel damson plums $3.50; S
bushels potatoes, soc per bushel
and bushels sweet potatoes $1.Io
per bushel.
We merely give the above named
articles and quotations In order to
give our readers an idea Of the ex-
tensiveness Of the produce traffic
here and the prices the hucksters
receive. We do not exagerate
when we say that the Sis'ersville
market IS equal In every respect to
any city in the State.

1901, was not weakened at ALL This on
paper at least makes Pittsburg a sure
pennant winner next season, and conse-
Quently detracts from the attractiveness
of the race for the National league flag
On the other hand, several American
league teams that finished behind Chca-
go in 1901 have been strengthened until
they seem to be about as formidable as
Comisl1ey's champions. and there does
not seem to be a really weak team in the
list.
1t was bad mistake for National
league club owners to permit their best
players to be taken away from them
for the comparatively small difference
in salary that would have kept them.
Mcfarland, Delehanty. Flick Orth, VOL
verton, Cross, Duggleby, Douglass, Town
send and Donohue were worth as much
to the Phillies as they possibly can be to
to theFMaS hington team, to which five OF
the mAfnber have gone. In New York
the situation was even more marked, for
q winning team in that city is a tremen-
dous money maker, while there is little
in a loser. In spite of this fact, the best
players Freedman had on his pay roll
have been allowed to go to other teams,
the managers of which were willing to
pay them higher salaries.
The National league club owners, al
though engaged in a wrangle that may
result in the disruption of the organiza-
ton, although that ca hardly probable.
are now awake to the fact that without
good ball players they might as well get
out of the business. and have set about

MILWAUKEE, Feb. Present indica-
lions point to an early settlement of the
row between the American association
and the Western league, and a division
of the territory which will make both
sides equally satisfied and end the war
which threatened to injure both organ
izations and make the disa agreement a
costly affair to the magnates. The set
Element of the deal hinges upon the own
ership of the Omaha club, it is said, and
If the Western league will withdraw from
Kansas City Omaha will be given to the
Manning crowd, and the American as
sociation will establish a team in Louis
Vile under the ownership of Arden Buell.,
of Berlin and Aid. Corcoran, of Milwau-
kee The agreement, so it is said, will
also provide for the transfer of the lease
OF Milwaukee park to the association
magnates here, which will prevent the
National league from breaking in if it
wants to.
Secretary Havenor. of the Milwaukee
club, last night said he was not aware
that any deal Of that kind was pending,
and President Quin stated that every
thing pertaining to the circuit was in
the hands of the circuit committee, which
is composed of Hickey, Watkins and

TO have the street which divides their
park at Omaha closed by the council in
time to prepare the grounds for play
ang, and there is no likelihood of their
being able to do so. At the same time
Rourke, the holder of the Omaha fran
chise and players, is obdurate and has
declined to sell to the association men
except at an eXorbitant figure, and the
American association, practically with

the Nebraska city, is tied hand and foot
so long as it persists in trying to break

STREETER IN THE GAME

CHICAGO. Feb. ACCORDING to Capt
to be a baseball park in the DISTRICT Of
Lake Michigan. Streeter yesterday con-
f1ded the fact that negotiations to this
END had been in progress for some time
He refused to say what persons had talk
ed with him on the subject, but declared
they represented a baseball league of
consequence. 1t is considered possible
getting either a Western league or \
Western association franchise in Chicago
may have talked the matter over with
the governor of the District of Lake
Michigan. However, both those leagues
have abandoned Chicago as a possibility
in their circuits, and if Capt Streeter
has q ball park he will probably have to
forHn a league of his own or join forces
with Andy Freedman and John 7. Brush.
