dispute. The opinion is also expressed
that DR.. Won Holleben's dispatches re-
garding the policy of the United States
in the Venezuelan business and it's
general foreign policy have been nei-
Their adequate nor precise.
A variety of other reasons may have
contributed to the lack of confidence in
the ambassador, the Vossische Zeitung,
Tor instance, attributed Importance to
the telegram sent by Emperor William
to Mrs. Kipling on March 5, 1899,
when kipling was i'll in New York
The newspaper assumes that DR.. Won
Holleben counselled the sending of the
telegram and that the emperor, espe-
cially since the publication of Kip
lng's recent poem, "The Rowers,' v
feels he was ill advised.
DR.. Won Holleben's critics also aver
that he showed an unskillful hand in
the great champagne war and in the
Witt incident, and also in permitting
himself to become the object of the
press attacks. even though unjustly.
The matter of the statue of Frederick
the Great is also remembered. with
Its Indifferent reception by part of the
American people. This. it is alleged,
DR.. Won Holleben ought to have fore
seen, and he should have dissuaded the
emperor from Offering the statue to the
United States.

Joe Danaher. one of the crack bas- ketball players who may represent this city, says that the Massachusetts players are not faster than the players in this state and perhaps are not so fast.
 The games in this city will proba- bly, be played on Monday and Thurs day. The polo games used to be played on Wednesday and Friday nights, but Owner Guest thinks that Monday and Thursday nights will be better.

The New Yorks started for Boston last night, where they are scheduled to play to-day, tomorrow and Friday. Before leaving Manager McGraw handed Pitcher Roscoe Miller his ten days notice of release. McGraw said he was convinced that Miller never would be able to pitch winning ball for the Giants, and it was useless to retain him longer. Leon Ames. the pitcher whose release was bought last week from the Ilion club of the New York 1 State league, reported to McGraw yes 1 terday and was taken to Boston with | the team. It is probable he will get q chance in one of the games against I the Beaneaters.
 l Having revised the American flag, | Dr Dowie has now started out to change the rules of the national game, | baseball. These are some of the rules which have been introduced in the Zion City games. "No bases shall be l stolen. Thievery is sinful and must be 1 put down by the faithful. The pitcher
 shall not use deceit in delivering tho ball, for deceit is sinful The curve must be cut out. There shall be no umpires, for they are race of liars and their sayings breed strife and dis content. Brethren who meet upon the field must play the game in brotnerly love, and not in contention and self glorification, for that way lies destruc-
 ton. n."-Pittsburg Dispatch.
 Tim Hurst used to check the kicking
 of ball players by treading on their l toes Or sarreptitiously planting his toe
 in the most tender part of their shins. i He took new tack the other day.
 When Ritter prolonged the growl over Burke's interference at second, Tim 1 picked up the catcher's mask and
 threw it at Louee before he was ready.
 The missile caught Ritter on the chest,
 and Louee was so surprised that his tongue became paralyzed. They

BASKET BALL BOOMING
rom Reilly Still Signing the Cream of
 the Profession.

:. sStiiI signing the Cream of
 the Profession.
 Activity ill basket ball cire,as waa marked again yesterday bv fha an nouncement that Florence r, Hapoartv of Springfield had signed with tba Mer1den team of the new Connaetie,,+ league. Henry Martens. who is fo cam taln the team for Tom Reilly. secured young Haggerty's signature to . con- tract Dy the guarantee of a fancy sal ary. Haggerty is one of the fastest men in the business, and has had Of fers from dozen managers this year. He was with Hudson last season and was a big favorite in every place he played. Though he was played mostly at back, the Springfield youngster was a great basket tosser.
 Captain Martens is now out for < center and another back. For the cen ter position he intends making 8 try for Toby Matthews. who made 90 bic a hit with the Springfield team last year. Yesterday he talked with ZelSe Michelman, but was unable to make terms with him. Miehe1man has been offered $40 week by Waterbury, and is undecided whether to accept that offer or play with Springfield. though he says he is likely to remain in Springfield. Martens also intends hay ing a talk with Tom Davies.
 Another man he is after is J. Fred Powers of Worcester. who was a few years ago the champion a11-around ath- lete of New England. The new Meri- den captain and his brother, Charlie, intend to make their home in Meriden during the playing season. and will start practice as soon as the team is brought together. as the Connecticut season opens about the middle of next month. Tom Reilly himself talked with Michelman yesterday, but t.ere was difference of S2.50 in the figures asked and offered.
 Lawrence Dowd who is managing the Holyoke team during the absence of his brother, Tom announced yes terday that he has signed J. c. Camp bell of Jersey City and D. J. Deadly of Newark Both have been playing about New York and New Jersey and are said to be fast men. MT Dowd says he will have Jimmie Doran and Jack Fox of last years team, and ,ex- pects to get Paul Steinberg. if he is able to play again. He has heard that Steinberg' is to play football this fall and that he expects to get back into basket b~-, as his leg is said to be as strong as ever.
