LENNON WILL NOT
SURRENDER CLUB
st. Paul Magnate Fighting
Transfer of Baseball
Team.

Special to The Globe.
CHICAGO, Jan. president George
E. Lennon, of the st. Paul American
association baseball team, is in Chica-
go fighting to prevent the transfer of
the Saints to Chicago. The owner of
the st. Paul team was in conference
with President Hickey at the league
leaders office all afternoon today.
From developments of today it is
safe to believe that the ST. Paul team
will be transferred to Chicago unless
the wishes of all the American asso-
citation club owners, with the eXcep-
ton of Lennon, are overruled.
President Hickey claims that Len
non offered to sell his team for a Ger
tain figure if he failed to secure a
down-tow ball park in st. Paul, and
that the association is to hold him to
this offer. Lennon claims that he is
not through attempting to secure a
downtown park and that this releases
him from the option.
President Hickey virtually admitted
today that the st. Paul team would be
transferred to Chicago, but as to the
location of the grounds here and the
naming of the men who are to back
the club here he is nom committal.
Hickey has long desired to get into
Chicago, and he feels that if the move
is ever to be made, it must be made
at once and before the big leagues get
together and thus bring organized
baseball and the resultant territorial
agreement governing the same.

AMATEUR ATHLETES
HAVE ATHLETIC NIGHT
A. A. A. Members Entertain Friends in
the Associations Gymnasium.

Last night was athletic night at the
Amateur Athletic association rooms. The
association has planned a winter season
of entertainment for it's members. The
programme includes social nights and ath-
letic nights and last night was the turn
of the athletes.
The entertainment proved a marketed
success. The evening opened with a buck
and wing dance by Master Whitmore the
young son of Capt Frank Whitmore.
Haummerstrum and Horwitz came next in
a wrestling bout. Haummerstrum is the
champion of the Y. M. c. A. and Hor-
WITT is the A. A. A. champion in the same
class.
Owing to the unsatisfactory ending of
the former bout the two men were out to
wipe out past scores and went after each
other in rapid fashion. Haummerstrum
looked considerable heavier than the A.
A. A. man and took two falls straight
Three sparring exhibitions We're in
Guided in the programme The first match
was between O'DonneI and Walton and
the two showed even in the three rounds.
Mcdonald and O'Brien, of the A. A A.,
went through three fast rounds and the
glove contests ended with a spirited go
between Jenette and Brault. Referee
Brault awarded the decision to Brault
Prof. AL Schintz, the athletic director
of the A. A. A, and his assistant Roy
Gage, contributed a club swinging turn
that proved the feature of the evening.

DOCTORS" A HORSE
TO DRIVE A BARGAIN
Purchaser of Steed Linbered Up by
Turpentine Awarded Judgment.

A horse trader who ''dopes" a lame
horse or broken-dow horse for the
purposes Of trading, and gets caught at
1t, must trade back. Such is the law
as laid down by Justice of the Peace
Hoff, who yesterday heard the case of
Clarence De MontrevilIe against Harry
DuBord, liveryman
The plaintiff sued the liVeryman for
$50, the amount paid by him for a
horse, and a Judgment was recorded in
his favor. De Montreville says he
bought horse of DuBord which the
latter guaranteed to be sound in every
way, and after the trade it was dis
covered the horse was affected with
stif1e joints, fractured knee cap and
numerous other ailments, which were
explained to the court by a veterinary
surgeon who testified Instead of be-
ing worth $50. the plaintiff thought 81
would be a good price for the skate"
DuBord admitted that he had doctor
ed'' the~animaPs legs with turpentine
before the trade, just to heal them. he
said.
DR.. baltimore said the application of
turpentine on horses limbs made the
animal appear spry and lively and the
smarting sensation caused by the tur-
pentine would cause the horse to for
get his other troubles for the time be-
ing.
Justice Hoff decided that it was not
the right thing to doctor" a horse just
before a trade, and entered judgment
against DuBord.

BAN AND GARRY
PASS The BUCK
Plans for Baseball Peace
Meeting Now Thorough
ly Mixed.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Jan. 6.-Chair-
man Hermann, of the peace conference
of the National Baseball league, today
received q letter from President Ban
Johnson, of the American league.
After being pressed all forenoon by
newspaper men, Chairman Hermann at
noon announced that he could not give
out the letter or even the import of
It's contents. He said there is no rea-
son now to believe that the peace
committees of the National and Amer
lean leagues will meet here this week,
and that it is up to President Johnson
to call meeting of the peace commit
tee, when he is ready to 90 so. In
baseball circles here it seemed be the
consensus of opinion that all negotia-
tons for an agreement between the
two leagues were off.
It's Up to Johnson.
CHICAGO, Jan. 6.-Speaking of the
assertion of Chairman Hermann that
1t is ''up to President Johnson" to call
meeting of the peace committee, Mr.
Johnson said today:
Il believe there will be a meeting
the latter part of this week. I have
written letter to Garry Hermann,
of the Cincinnati club, and it now
rests with the National league as to
whether there shall be a conference at
all or not"
President James A. Hart, Of the Ma
tional league, has had his anger arous-
ed by the assertion that he is re-
sponsible for the postponement of the
peace conference which was to have
been held yesterday.
Il plead guilty to delaying the meet
ing of Jan. s." he said, ''but since that
date I have been waiting here in my
office with the railroad tickets in my
pocket ready to start at moments
notice, but Ban Johnson, who was
given authority to name his own date,
saw Mt to cancel the date first set, and
now 1t is up to him to set another,
when he sees fit"
