AUGUSTA is IN Line.
MIR. II. H. CADANISS, OF THE
CHRONICLE, BEHIND THE TEAM.
EASY SAILING AHEAD NOW.
PRESIDENT BOYER SAYS HE HAS
EVERY CONFIDENCE OF SUCCESS.

Augusta Was the Only City There
Was Any Doubt About, and Now
Tint MIR. Cabaniss Has Taken HOIa
II VIII BE One of the Strongest
Organizations in the League.
President Boyer Went to Charles
ton Last Night, But VIII Return to
Savannah Mt an Early Date to
Establish Headquarters Here.
Assurances were received from Au-
gusta yesterday that dispelled all
doubts as to that city's entrance into
the South Atlantic League, and there
is plain sailing ahead now.
Mr.. H. H. Cabaniss, business man
ager and part owner of the Augusta
Chronicle, has taken up the Augusta
end, and has assured President Boyer
that he will see that Augusta is repre-
scented in the league with one of the
strongest team it is possible to secure.
This completes the league, and all
of the cities will be on the hustle for
the next few months for good players.
Many have already been signed. Mr..
Kohler of the Macon organization, has
already made arrangements for a man
ager. He said while in Savannah that
he had made no arrangements with
Tommy Stouch, but had employed the
services of w. A. Smith, who was
manager of the Greenville team in the
Cotton States League last season.
Smith is a player manager, and is con-
sidered one of the best in his class.
President Boyer received a telegram
from Charleston last night calling him
over there to confer with those who
are to take the Charleston team rel
alive to securing a manager When
the official representative of Charles
ton, but when he was elected presi-
dent he at once informed the Charles
ton people and asked them what he
must do for them. A meeting will be
held in Charleston to-day, at which
time Mr.. Boyer will inform those in
terested as to what was done in Sa-
Vannah, and assist them in securing
a manager
That the outlook now is rosy no one
can deny. The greatest enthusiasm
prevails everywhere, and within the
next thirty days there will be in the
hands of the trustee for the guarantee
fund. $3.50 from each of the six cities
as a guarantee of good faith. Later
in the year the balance of the guam
antee money will be posted, and there
will be no chance for any of the cities
to back out. This guarantee fund will
amount to 81. 400. and in the event any
of the cities drop out, which is not ex-
pected or anticipated, the $500 that has
been paid in viii be used towards de-
veloping team in some other city, so
that there is no chance for the league
to fall through now.
President Boyer said just before he
left for Charleston that he had every
confidence in the success of the league,
and that after the first year it would
be found that it was the best paying
leag que in the South President Boyer
will return to Savannah shortly to es-
tablish league headquarters here, and
will then take up the details to he per-
fected after the formal organization,
which was entered into last Tuesday

he Large-Track Is in Excellent
Shape.
Arrangements have finally been COM
pleted for the running of matinee races
at the fair ground track between the
horses that are now quartered there.
Manager H. H. Hull closed a deal with
the horsemen yesterday by which matt
ness races will be run once a week for
weather will permit.
There will be five events on the card
next Thursday. when the horses face
the starter. one of which will, beyond
a doubt, be a match race between the
two horses now claiming to be cham
plOuS dl TIE local ITdCkt 11OnOlulu,
owned by Mr.. Harry Schultz, and DR..
Guernsey, owned by Mr.. w. C. Capps.
An effort was made to arrange a
match between these two horses dur
ing the races held here the first part
of the month, but as the cards had al
ready been arranged the fair manage
ment did not feel justified in offering
an extra purse for the contest. Both
owners believe that their horse is the
best. and there will be a spirited con-
test when they meet.
The officials that will preside at the
matinee races have not yet been Sc
lected, but there is plenty of available
material that will meet all the re-
quirements. and there will be no trou-
BILE on this score.
Manager Hull is most enthusiastic
over the prospects. as are the horse
men, as the interest displayed here dur
ing the last race meet, proves beyond
a doubt that Savannah people are
ready and willing to support good clean
racing.
The track is already in excellent
shape, and with the seventy-fve horses
that are in the barns now, ready for
the hardest kind of racing, all of the
events Thursday will be we'll filled.
Manager Hull will complete the ar
engagements for officials to-day, and the
conditions OF the different events win
be arranged to suit the horsemen.

demands for victory.
If reports be true, the team which
Jacksonville will bring to Savannah
will be even stronger than the Unver-
sity team, which played here some
time ago. But whether or not the team
is good or bad, Savannah expects to
win. and to that end will put up a
game that will be at least deserving
of enthusiasm on the part of the spec
tators, if not productive of discomfort
to the visitors.
Field VIII BE Wet.
From indications this morning the
gridiron will be wet this afternoon
but unless the water is several inches
deep the game will go on just the
same. Football is a game that can
be played in any kind of weather, and
little less than real lakes in the park
will prevent the teams lining
up. The management has de-
cided to commence the engagement
at 4 o'clock instead of $3.50, which will
give those who prepare for their din
ners before the game, time to get to
the grounds in time to see the first
part.
The Jacksonville team will reach
Savannah this morning and go to the
Pulaski House. which will be gaily
decorated in their colors, orange and
black
The Savannah team is badly Grip
pied, both Capt. Cope and Right
Tackle Frank McIntire being forced
to keep out of the game on account of
injuries sustained in the Georgia
game Capt. Cope has improved
greatly, but could not think of going
into the game to-day, as he can hard
ly raise his hands above his waist,
and his shoulder is still painfully sore
McIntire is also much improved, but
his injuries were more lasting than
he at first supposed, and last night
he said there was little hope for him
to go in to-day.

that he believed the team which would
go against Jacksonville this afternoon
would, in every wise, be as strong as
the one which lined Up against Geor-

nah is from the Jacksonville Rifles.

to-day revealed unexpected facts about
the private life OF the New York broker
who was found dying in stairway at Mon
roe and Dearborn streets on last Tues da y
at daybreak DR.. E. G. Ogden, who was
a close friend Of Simonds testified about a
significant conversation he and Simonds
had the Sunday before the latter died.
"Simonds told me-" Dr. Ogden said on
the witness stand, that he had come to
Chicago under an assumed name for an
important reason. That reason was that
he wanted to collect a large amount OF
money from Chicago men who had been
his associates in the Mackey get rich
quick swindle of two years ago. He told
me that before he got out Of that concern
he had made more than $500. 900 in it.
He also told me that he had not drunk q
drop Of liquor in Ave years. The last
statement ref1teS the first theory OF the
police that Simonds, while intoxicated, fell
down the stairway and sustained injuries
that caused his death. If Simonds had any
enemies who desired his death he made them
in Chicago during the last three days he
spent here"
DR.. Ogden said that Simonds had once
been member of the Chicago Board of
Trade and that at the time Of his death
he had been specializing in some exchange

That's Why . Virginia Train Ran Back
Five Miles to Pick In Mr.. Swanst rOm

A train on Virginia railroad was held up

Swanstrom and his wife
Mr.. and Mrs. Swanstrom had been on
visit TO Hot Springs. At a small station
called Covington the train came to a stand
still. The conductor told the CROUCH
President that the delay would last at least
ten minutes. Bareheaded with his wife
on his arm, a short walk to a pretty babbling
brook was taken. When they returned
the last car Of the train was just rounding
a curve. No warning had been given and
the ten minutes was hardly up.
Half an hour went by, during which the
marooned official and his wife discussed the
best means of spending the time before the
next train left-about twelve hours-when
merry footing Of whistles ann ounced
the return OF the train. On the rear plat
form stood the conductor and as many
of the passengers a. could crowd out, who
greeted the bareheaded couple with cheers.
young woman, formerly Packer girl,
now resident of Washington, was on the
train. She had recognized the Borough
President, who was formerly a member of
the Board Of Education, and told the con-
ductor. Then the engine twas reversed
and the Ave mile run hack made.
II was quite joke on my wife and me,

Ministers File Charges In Washington That
He Is Living In POlyGamy

SALT LAKE, Utah, May 5.-Prominent
ministers of Salt Lake have forwarded
to the State Department at Washington
specific charges that President Smith and
other high officials of the Mormon Church
are living here in open polygamy. The
charges are sworn to by some of the most
reliable persons in Utah. The affidavits
were sent TO Secretary Hay in connection
with the protest against the action of Ger
many in expeling Mormon missionaries
on the ground that they are teaching the
doctrine of polygamy.

accusations. the affidavits declare that
President Smith attended the dedicatory

M.LANE WINS IN BALTIMORE.
Elected Mayor by Only 400 Piuralit.
Republicans Get the Other Onces.

BALTIMORE, May 5,-The municipal cleo
ton in Baltimore to-day was one of the
most remarkable in the history of the city.
McLane (Dem.) and Wachter (Rep), can
didates for Mayor, were both popular,
and each had large following. More
than 100000 votes were cast. yet McLane,
the Democrat, who upon the face of the
returns is the victor for Mayor, received
the small plurality OF between 400 and 500
votes.
His running mates, Hooper for Comp
troler and Gebhart for President of the
Second Branch City Council. were both
beaten badly by their Republican oppo-
nents, Messrs. Heffner and Timanus.
Just how the City Council stands is yet
a matter of conjecture. though indications
point to Republican majority in both
branches.
