lcrease in Entries for Stakes of
Washington Park Club.

CHICAGO, Feb. 8.-Entries for the
American Derby and for other stakes
given by the Washington Park club
have broken all records. The official
Derby list given out yesterday by Sec
rotary James Howard shows that 100
horses have been named to run for the
$4,000 stake June 20. This is an in
CREASE of 25 per cent over 1902. In
other stakes there are equally great
gains.
For the seventeen stakes offered by
the Washington Park club there are
1.912 entries, against 1,407 in 1902.

markable gain ever recorded by Chi

Entries for the Derby have jumped
from SO in 1901 and 81 in 1902 to 120.

Predict Great Sport.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Feb. S.-Prepara-
tons for the next turf campaign are
being made in a hurry by trainers
and owners at Montgomery park and
on every side the scene represents one
of hustle and activity It is already
conceded by the local colony of horse
men that more interest is being TAX
en- in the coming struggle for stakes
and purses than in any year within
the history of the sport, and the many
stables Of large and small proper
tons are represented on the track each
day by juveniles, Derby candidates or
members of the horse world that are
slated for engagements In the big all
aged handicapS here and at other
Eastern and Western tracks.
Nowhere is there apparently great
er interest taken than at the local
horse haven, and the unanimous opin-
ion seems to be that the banner season
of the American turf is close at hand.
Many owners have been busy trying
to register names for their tWo-year-
olds Many have found difficulty in
getting names accepted, as the rule
of the jockey club prevents duplica-
ton and the previous field has been
so thoroughly covered that there are
yet a number of prominent stables
that have not received official confirm
alton of their names chosen for juve-
niles.

showed activity. Mexican silver 3s lost
ed from President Roosevelt's mes
sage on the proposed silver confer
ence because of the assertions repeat
edly made here that little would come
of the conference. Argentines were
another feature of the market. They
Improved because of the removal of the
British restriction on the import Of
Argentine cattle, and on the crop re-
ports.
Taken altogether, the tone of the
market was good, and financial writ
ers generally hold out the hope of an
early resumption of active business
when the present causes of nervous
ness are removed, as is promised.
Cloth Demand Falls Off.
MANCHESTER, Feb. 8.-There was
a distinct falling off in the demand for
cloth during the past week, and the
turnover was smaller. A fairly
healthy inquiry was in evidence by
the fact that buyers were apparently
indisposed to enter into further en-
gagements of any magnitude prevent
ed any hrmneSS on the part of the
sellers. There was a few practicable
offers from India and China and some
unimportant Levant inquiry. Trade
in the latter-quarter will be stimulated,
it is expected, owing to the reported
advance in goods made in the Unit
ed States. Yarns showed no material
change. There was a steady miScel-
laneous inquiry, and the market was
firm. Transactions were moderate.

TIE VOTE SAVES THE
SAINTS FOR THIS
CITY
Effort to Take the Team
Away to Chicago Defeated
in the Association Meet
ing at Chicago Sunday
Phyle to Be a Saint.

Special to The Globe.
CHICAGO, Feb. 8.-For six hours
today the directors of the American
association fought to take the ST. Paul
baseball franchise from George Len
non, but each vote resulted to and
the franchise was saved.
Another attempt may be made to
transfer the Saints at the meeting to-
morrow morning, but Lennon believes
that the worst is over and that he has
won his fight.
The association men met at the Au-
ditorium hotel this afternoon, the
meeting being delayed by several of
the members who did not reach Chi
cGgo until after noon. At 2 o'clock
President Hickey called the directors
to Room 1 and the fight was on. At
the conclusion of the meeting, a few
minutes after s, Hickey announced
that merely routine business had been
considered, but the fact that the di-
rectors came out in parties of three
aroused suspicion.
Burke Is Real.
The truth is that the association
transferred, Bryce, Havenor and Te-
beau, have really secured this mystic
ricus Robert E. Burke, of Chicago,
and Burke stands ready to take the
team to the North side of Chicago.
This was made known to Lennon, but
the st. Paul man emphaticalIy refused
to change his decision regarding the
teams Hickey stood with Lennon and
Rauschaupt, of Indianapolis, repre-
senting Watkins, came instructed to
vote with Lennon regarding the dis
position of the Saints
Long arguments were the order and
now and then the loud tones f1oated
over the transom. Several votes were
taken and all resulted Havenor, Bryce
and Tebeau for the change in the cir.
cult; Rauschaupt, Hickey and Len
non to save the Saints.
Seeing that it was impossible to acg
compiish the transfer, the directors
against IT. Paul voted with the 9th
ers to adjourn the meeting of the di-
rectc~s and the association then took
up routine business. 77
Lennon Stands Pat.
Lennon has been asked to meet
Burke tomorrow morning when a final
attempt to change the decision of the
st. Paul man will be made. Lennon
has agreed to the meeting, but de-
clares the team is to remain IN st.
Paul and that this is final. '9D@
In the meeting of the association
the claim list was revived and the
clubs voted to increase their guaran-
tee to $1,000. There will be no double
headers on the opening trip and no
more than two games will be played
by competing teams in one day. This
is to avoid a repetition of the 1902
finish of the season. There will be
no more substitute umpires, players
to officiate in the absence of the reg
ular men. President Lennon announce
| ed after the meeting that Manager
Kelley had traded Stimmel to Mime
| apolis for Billy Phyle, the pitcher,
who once wore a st. Paul uniform.
