Manager Edward Hanlon of the Brook

attended the annual meeting Of the club.
was reelected manager at the comfortable
salary of $4,000 and incidentally secured
Keeler's signature to Brooklyn contract.
Speaking OF Keeler, Mr.. Hanion said:
while Willie would perhaps have received
a larger salary in Detroit or perhaps in
Baltimore, think he saw that his best in.
terests and future prospects lay in Brook
lyn, which is his home
Baltimore will have a good team next

the Orioles-wili play better than he did
in Brooklyn in fact. Pitcher Hughes, whom
l hear McGraw has signed is great pltch-
er If he takes care of himself Hughes Is
a dandy When he Is going right nobody
can touch him-thats all Then McGinnity
will probably do better work than he did
last year. He was sick and not himself last
season. and though he did good work he
was not at his best. McGraw is one Of the
best men / ever had to work for me-
Manager Hanion refused to attend the
rules conference in Buffalo, although APP
pointed a delegate by President A. G.
Spa;ding, and he is very much opposed to
any changes in the foul strike rule, and
especially the rule as changed by the con-
ference.
The rule as it was in the National

Mr.. Hanlon. 1T was bitterly opposed at
first, but before the season ended its ene-
mics had become friends, and l firmly be-
lieve if it were tried In the American
League it would please players and specta-
tors. 1t would also be a great help to a
pitcher like McGinnity with raise ball.
Mr.. Hanlon said there were no new devel-
opments in the factional fight in his league
and he said he knew of no compromise. He
said the Brooklyn owners at the club meet

and that they saw no reason to change the

A Surprising Contest.

Then the fight began. Some of the play
ers were nervous, some were baked by the
foul line and some couldn't bowl very well
anyhow. But as the game neared the end
it was seen that the mountaineers were
leading by q comfortable margin, and
great was the surprise. 1t was even whis-
pered that the Blue Ridge men must be
descendants of Hendrix Hudsons famous
bowling team. The explanation was easy,
however, when the scores were carefully

leader of the home team. had fallen
down and his first follower had dropped
with him. while all the Blue Ridge men

SUIT OVER MACHINE NOTES

BEATRICE, Neb., Feb. 2s.-Cspeciai.)-
The case Of the Mccormick Harvester COM

farmer. was commenced In the district court
Wednesday, and after all the evidence was
In this evening the case vas turned over
TO the jury. which has not agreed upop a
verdict.
The case is an appeal by the p~laintiff
from a decision Of the county court. to re-
cover money upon notes OF the defendant
given the plaintiff In payment OF a binder.
II seems that Heat bought a binder from
the machine company in June. 1896. The
company guaranteed the binder to give sat
isfaction, and II 1t did not, they we're to
be so informed the first day II was used.
The machin did not work well the first
day, and Heat thought the trouble was
trivial and would be rectihed by the COM
pany. Heat continued to use the machine
throughout the harvest, although the COM
pany was notified Of the trouble, and a
representative repaired and rebuilded the
machine. The binder continued to give bad
service, and after using II three seasons
Heat returned Il to the company. Mr..
Heat In the meantime had given his notes
and made a payment on some Of $40. Heat
refused to meet the notes and the company
brought action against him to recover
money on the notes. In the county court
Heat was relieved OF the payment Of same.
The case was then taken to the district
court, and a decision In the matter is now
awaited with much interest. The company
asserts that Heat used the machine three
years as a revenue producer, to cut his own
and n~eighbors' crops. and was therefore
liable for the cost Of the machine.
