MOUNTAINS OF BAGGAGE.
Tremendous Amount HandIed m onl zew York Railway Station
 in September. "

Few persons appreciate the tro{ mendous passenger business that IT being handled by the railroads. Hors is an illustration that will open thx eyes of some:
 For the first six dayss of Septembex there were received at the New YorG Grand Central station, 34,259 picccx of baggage, an average of 5,7o0 piecex per day. During the second week of September the average was q littl4 over 5000 pieces per diem. Tho bnr< gage came in so rapidly and thcrd was such an amount of it to bt handled in comparativelv sms1l space that it was with the greatesd difficulty that the platforms wera kept clear for incoming trains.
 The first week in Septeomber " always the heaviest week in the venr< So many people returning on the first of September from the lake and mountain resorts, in order to pft tlfo children in school, that it makes N. immense traffic. The fact that this great amount of baggage was handled with reasonable promptitude, savx the Municipal Journal and Encinesr, and that very few trunks were either lost or seriously damaged speaks yolz umes for the efficiency of our trans. portation lines. 8'

BASKET BALL.

A large crowd witnessed the basket
 ball games at the Y. M. c. A. gym nasium Saturday night. The Eagles won from the Normans by the score of IA to 9, while the Nutmegs lost to the Business Men by the score of 19 to 14 Saturday was a bad day for the bas- ket ball teams of the Waterbury High school. Luck was against them. The
 boys team played their first game of
 the season in Middletown against the
 High school team and lost by the score
 of 14 to 12. The local boys played 8
 fast, snappy game and displayed good
 form for their first game of the year.
 The lineup of the team was as follows:
 Center Thompson; forwards, Nichols
 and Guilfoile; guards, Daily and Blans-
 field; substitute, Splain.
 The Waterbury girls team, which
 consists almost entirely of students of the High school, lost to the Bristol
 High school girls team by the score of
 to 6. The game was played at the
 Y. M. c. A. gymnasium on Saturday
 afternoon and was attended by small crowd. The local girls had an off day. Their playing was a little off color.
 They couldn't catch the ball; they
 couldn't pass it; they couldn't or would not shoot with an accuracy for the bas- ket; they fumbled; they squatted so often that some of the spectators thought that they were seeing a game of squat tag. A couple of the stouter players were clearly out of condition, judging from the manner in which they played. Now and then these stout, strong ladies indulged in a little rough house play, unconsciOusly, perhaps. The Bristol girls were much inferior to the home girls in size. but in playing they were much superior. They were children, but they could play some. The only fault. if it could be termed such. was that they became too hys- terical when they caged a goal. After they made a point their actions would give one the impression that they were unaccustomed to scoring. The score at the end of the first half was to in favor of the visitors. The final score was 7 to 6 Waterbury made all their goals on fouls. A disagreeable feature was the interruptions during the game caused by the umpires, one for Water bury. the other for Bristol, who per- sitsed in continually calling fouls. 1t looked as if they were trying to see who could call the most. Waterbury scored all her goals on fouls The To- calls played as if they had molasses in their shoes, lead in their arms and glass in their eyes. The lineup of the home team: Center, Irene Strain; for wards Katherine Glynn, Amy valen- tine; guards, Gussie Siviter; Belle John son. Physical Director Clapp of the Y. NJ. e. A refereed and w.

aried ball players know 1 what uniforms they are going to wear this year. These men, also real ize that the day of using. levers to "boost" salaries is nearly over. Iii the future baseball is going to be a striking example of the tendency of the times-conso olidation. In burying bitter feelings, annihilating unpleas- ant "reminiscences and practically uniting in 8 community of inter- ests," the capitalists of baseball have done what the steel magnates, the oil magnates and others have accom- plished. Slowly and4 surely has the econom- ic wedge been inserted into the base ball situation. The intelligent play CT knows that in the future there will arise no exigencies that will force the owner of baseball fran chige to pay a $2,ooO man a salary of S8, 600 and make long-term con tract with him for fear the opposi- tion will capture him. In the future the baseball magnate will not fear 8 state supreme court decision att tacking the validity of the contract with the player because of the lack of equity in the reserve rule. Play CTS are to be reserved by the we'll organized magnates, indefinitely, if you please, and the indignation of the rival magnates who only a few months ago attacked the National league leaders because of their poi icy of ''enslaving" players indefinite ly, will cool to the below-zero limit. What politicians of both leagues could not do, what wirepulling, ap- peals to reason, etc, could not ac- conplish, simple, businesslike app
 peal to economic knowledge succeed; ed in bringing about. If any divi-I dends are to be paid to capitalists whose investments are sunk in base ball plants, they will make their ap- pearance now that the sstrust idea" has invaded the national game.

 Hot Springs, Ark, Jan 26.-Tommy Ryan, the champion middleweight, who arrived here yesterday, received a tele. gram from Jack Herman, manager ot the Fort Erie Athletic club, at Buffalo, asking him if he would fight Fitzsim- mons there for a purse of $25,00O. Ryan replied that he would if Fitzsim- mons would train down to the middle weight limit.
 Springfield, tO., Jan 26.-James J. Cor bett yesterday challenged Champion Jim Jeffries to battle for the world's $ heavyweight honors, to be decided at either San Francisco or Fort Erie, Can ada. Corbett posted a forfeit of S5,- GOO. This is the second time within a week that Corbett has challenged Jeff fries and put up a forfeit to bind a match.
 Joe Grim. the Italian middleWeight, boxed a six-round draw with Jack Ben nitt of McKeesport, Pa, before the Ariel A. O., Philadelphia, on Friday night. Grim has only been boxing a short time and was not seriously con- sidered until he achieved reputation Dy staying six rounds with Philadel- phia Jack O'Brien few weeks ago. Bennitt was to do what O'Brien failed 10 do-put Grim to sleep. Bennitt did not fare as we'll against Grim as his friends thought he would Instead of Stopping" the Italian he came near going down himself In the opinion of those present Bennitt was lucky irl even securing a draw.
 It is now the evident intention of Young Corbett not to remain idle if he can possibly help it, and to this end he Is trying to arrange matches One con- test. which looks as if it will be made before long, is the announced twenty round bout between Jimmy Britt and Corbett. Some time ago Britt said he would undertake to stop either Me- Govern or the featherweight champion in ten rounds, provided they agreed to wager a big sum on the side. The mat ter was forgotten until yesterday, when Young Corbett received a dispatch from Harry Corbett, asking him if he would meet Britt before the San Francisco A. e. Corbett has replied that he will fight Britt, and is now waiting for fur ther particulars.
 Before leaving New York for Phila- delphla, Jack Munroe, the miner pugil- ist, spoke volnbly about the stage, as viewed from the fistic standpoint He said that already acting was tiring him and wearing his nerves down, and that 1t would not be very long before he would be seen again with the gloves. T was never made to be an actor,v said Munroe. II would prefer to fight every day than to appear before the footlights. I believe a fighter should keep right at the game.
