when Two Captains were RaidinE.
Police Commissioner Greene, his secre-
tary, and Inspector Brooks started out
in the Commissioner red automobile late
yesterday afternoon on another police
station tour and stirred things up quite
little. It was the downstown stations
that were inspected to find out, the Com
missioner said, what repairs were necessary
In them.
They went first to the Madison street
station where Capt. Creamer took the
Commissioner over the building from cellar
to garret. This is the worst station house
In New York. the captain observed
1T certainly does need lots Of repairing,
replied the Commissioner.
The party visited In turn the Old Slip,
Oak street and Church street stations, the
quarters OF the Harbor Patrol on Pier and
the Leonard street station. and then went
across the Brooklyn Bridge to the quarters
Of the Bridge squad in Washington street.
At each the Commissioner asked many
questions regarding the sanitary arrange
ments, and looked at all the blotters but
made no comment.
II was highly successful trip for the
captains and left most ofthoee visited

and had their houses and blotters in hne

Commissioner made a man to man inspec-
tion at o o'clock roll call, which seemed TO
please the men.
-Greene's aces said one Of them. I'D

The automobile stopped at the Church
street station at 2:3O O'Clock. and II its pas
sengers found any OF the dirt" which
Capt Piper said he discovered there several
months ago, they didn't say anything
about It to Sergt. McAuley. At Oak street
they found Capt. Titus in full uniform
among the faded good.luck wreaths sent
TO him Thursday when he took command
The conversation between the ex.chief
Of the Detective Bureau and the man who
reduced him was II remely brief.
-The Commissioner made no comments
In my hearing said the captain.
At Old Slip Capt. Dooley was raidine a
poolrOom at l7o Broadway, and the Com
missioner got to the Elizabeth street station
just in time to see the patrol wagon drive
up with twelve prisoners and lot Of pool
room pAraphernalia taken by Capt. CALI Gh Z
at 10 Elm street, and while he was looking
over the second floor Of the house the captain
himself appeared, his pockets stuffed with
racing cards and his blue necktie under
his ear
Il simply went out on tour Of inspection
OF the station houses. There was no other
significance to the trip the Commissioner
said on getting back to Headquarters.

CINCINNATI, Jan. i0.-Terms OF peace
have been arranged between the Nationai
and American leagues a. the result OF the
baseball conference begun here yesterday

The work Of drafting the proclamation OF

at I o'clock to-day. All important diner
ences were amicably settled and minor
details have been left for future arrange
ments. The general conditions are as
follows:
Eirst-There will be no amalgamation
OF the two leagues.
Second-There will be two eight-club
leagues, a. At present.
Third-The American League will place
club In New York city and abandon Pitts

secured from the National League.
And. as last between the American and

Early In the afternoon 1t was oficially
announced that an agreement had been
reached binding the two Leagues together
in future actions. The official report was
signed by all the commissioners. Harry
Pulliam. James A. Hart. F. Do Hnas 'Robi-
son and August Hermann for theNational
League and Ban johnson. Henry killilea,
Charles Somers and Charles Comiskey
representing the American League.
One Of the most important actions OF
the conference was the settling OF the
question OF territorial rights and the assign
ments Of players. The agreement calls
for no change in the circuit Of either leagues
further than 1t provides for the placing
Of an American League club In New York.
One article In the agreement on this ques-
ton says that neither league circuit can
be changed without the consent OF ma
jority Of the club owners In each league.
1t is also provided that in such cities where
both leagues are represented there shall
be no consolidation Of teams. Another
important result of the meeting will he the
construction OF non-confiicting playing
schedules.
After settling the foregoing questions.
the conference took up contract jumping
This was one Of the questions on which
there was expected TO be some disagree
ment, IL not the rock upon which the meet
ing would split. embracing as II did the
