In spite of the "p~enny-a-line" CORE
spondents there will be no clash be-
tween President Roosevelt and Sena-
tor Hanna. Mr.. Roosevelt and Mark
Hanna are friends. They are frank,
each with the other. The president
sent word to Hanna that he would ap-
preciate the endorsement of his adj
ministration and candidacy by the re-
publicans of Ohio and the chairman
of the national committee wired back
that so far as he was concerned his
wish shouldd be gratified. This set
ties the Ohio episode and it also set
ties the nomination of Mr.. Roosevelt
by reclamation by the republican
national convention next year.

The records of the two teams this season are practically the same. the Association team having been defeated in their only previous game by Howard Col lege and the Athletic Club team defeated by Mobile in two previous games The Birmingham aggregation has the advantage inasmuch as 1t has been or ganized several years, while the Y.

THE AMERICAN LEAGUE.
Adopts Report of Rules Committee
 After Heated Discussion.

New York March 6.-The American League baseball owners held the second days session at the Fifth Avenue Hotel today The meeting did not get into ses- sion until late. For nearly three hours the men discussed reports of various com mittees and then adjourned until tomor- row. The situation of the playing grounds in New York was not made public
 Most of today's session was spent in discussing the report of the Rules Com mittee. Rule IA, relating to foul strikes, held the owners in a heated deadlock for two hours, but the report was finally adopted, four to three. This rule caused trouble at the joint conference of the Rules Committees of the American and National Leagues and ne National AsSo- ciation. The American League opposed the rule then but was outvoted.
 After the meeting President Killilea of Boston said:
 ''The feeling of the American League is against the foul strike rule. but We pass ed 1t out of deference to the Rules Com mittee.'
 Asked about the local situation, MT. Johnson said: "We are in New York safe enough and before :he meeting adjourns announcement will be made letting the public know all our plans l can give no information tonight"
 The report of the Board of Directors was the first business taken up at the afternoon session and 1t was adopted. The pennant was formally awarded to the Philadelphia Athletics.
 The report of the Peace Committee was also read and adopted as was the report of President Johnson and the Board of Directors declaring the Baltimore fran chise forfeited.

Crazy.
 Denver Colo, March 6.-There IS con- sidera ble speculation as to the antecedents of Mrs Georgia Stanley, who died yes day from aspiration due to the tnhaling of the fumes of coal gas in a hovel on the north side, where she was found by neiHhbors in an unconscious condition lying on 6 bed beside the dead body of Major Marshall Hurd, an aged veteran of the Civil War.
 Mrs. Stanley not long ago told friend that her friend, Lord Allen. formerly governor of a province in India. was the founder of the Allen line of Atlantic steamers. In a note book found among her effects apears the following:
 Brother Georges fortune was estimat- ed at Ss5, ,OO0 900. but at this writing sup pose 1t is $4OO. .OOo.OOo. To think how rich brother George is, and how poor l an" !" Nothing definite is known or the oroth- CT except 1t Is believed he lived at one time in Spain or the Barbadoes.
 Some time ago when Mrs. stanley poverty-stricken condition was brought to the attention of Dean H. Martin of St. Johns Cathedral, he communicated with Sir James Grant of Toronto. who. Mrs. Stanley declared. was her half brother. A reply was received to the affect that Sir James was not Mrs. Stan lev's half brother. No arrangement has as vet been made for Mrs. Stanley's burial

PRIZE FIGHT INQUIRY.
The Judge Compelled to Discharge
 the Defendants.

Boston. March 6.-The question of what constitutes the difference between pub lie and a private sparring exhibition was argued today in connection with test case before the East Boston Court and while the court stated that without doubt the practice of certain clubs In holding sparring exhibitions was an attempt to evade the law, the court was forced, in the absence of damaging evidence, to dis charge the defendants.
 The complaint was against the club manager, referee and members who as- sisted in the recent George Gardner-Al Weinig fight. the boxers also being nnmed but not appearing. The evidence showed that admission to the exhibition could be gained upon payment of $1 which en- titled any person so paying to member ship in the club.
 The government contended that this membership was entirely temporary and sought only for the purpose of witnessing the contest. The Judge held that the ex- hibition was not a public one; that the club had a charter, had secured lease of the entire building to run its exhibitions and the fact that one man had got into the show on another mans ticket did not make it a public exhibition.

MADE GIFTS TO COLLEGE.
In Doing So Impoverished Hi
 Wife.

New Haven. Conn.,, March 6.-By giving to Yale's library an exceptional collection of Russian and Slavic literature, and more recently a small library on music, the late J. Sumner Smith. Yale, 1853. so far impoverished his fortunes that Yale grad uates have taken steps to raise a fund for the aid of his widow. Recent losses have made inroads upon her own modest fortune.
 In all 1t is said MT. Smith gave Yale the result of about $12,OOO, spent intelli- gently and with the discrimination of an expert librarian. He made his gifts anonymously, and not until after his death. on February 13 last were they coupled with MT. Smiths name. The gifts were made out of his salary as as- sistant librarian.
 MT. Smiths friends hope that a fund to bear his name, and equal in value to his gifts. may be subscribed for additions to the collections, with the provision that tho widow shall have use of the income for life.

INDIRECT SUGAR BOUNTY.
German Government Not in Favor
 of the Scheme,

or LQo Scneme.
 Berlin, March 6.-The sugar producers of Germany want the government to in- troduce the Austrian system of alloting to both refiners and raw factories the amount of sugar they may produce year. ly.
 Count von Carmen in the Reichstag to- day said Austrian sugar would enjoy an advantage in the American and British markets unless Germany adopted the allotment system.
 Treasury Secretary von Theilmann in announcing that the government did not approve of the allotment plan. said 1t was sighly probable that the United States customs authorities would carefully ex- anime the new status of Austrian sugar after September and decide that 1t enjoys an indirect bounty under the double allot- ment system, as in the case of Russia 6 indirect bounty. Moreover continued the secretary, the authority for deciding whether sugar enjoys bounty Is vested in the international commission created by the Brussels treaty.
