CHAMPIONS STILL HERE.
Nothing More Has Been Done About
Match With Mexican Pete.

Nothing new whatever has developed
in the proposed match between Next
can Pete and Champion Jeffries. Pete
says if he does not get on a go here
with Jeffries he viii follow him east
and keep after him until the cham
piOn consents to meet him. On the
other hand Jeffries cannot see where
there is any money in it for him to
take on Pete.
Jeffries gave g very plausible excuse
yesterday for nto meeting Pete the 9th
er night when the champion gave his
exhibition with FitzsimmOns Jeffries
said that when he saw Pete in Park
City two days before the exhibition
here the Mexican said he would not be
on hand. This statement was pub
lished in the Salt Lake papers, and,
according TO Jeffries, had considerable
TO do with keeping away the crowd.
Jeffries said that on the face of this
he did not think he was justified in
meeting the Mexican when il had been
would not appear and therefore
knocked both himself and Fitzsimmons
out of considera Bile money.
Neither of the two champions seems
at all anxious to leave the city. Both
say they like the place and will prob
ably be here for at least another week.
Fits hand is rapidly getting better
and the Cornishman thinks it will be
as well and strong as ever inside of a
few days. when he and Jeffries will
be able to give bouts that are bound TO
please the crowds. These were the
kind of contests the champions put UP
when they first started out, and they
got good notices wherever they went

MEETING CALLED OFF
Attempt to Establish Peace Be-
tween American and National
Leagues Are Futile.

Chicago, Jan 3.-''For the present
there will not be a meeting of the peace
committees Of the American and Ma
tionai leagues" said President Ban
Johnson of the former organization to
day. "At the first conference in New
York, he continued. lit was understood
that the committee from the National
league had full power to dispose of all
questions that might arise. Since then
1t has developed that the league COM
mittee had DO authority to act conclu-
Sively on anything Two weeks ago I
wrote Chairman Hermann that if the
National league would clothe its COM
mittee with full power we would be
prepared to meet them, but not until
that action had been taken Mr. Herr
mann wired me that he would have his
committee vested with full power. He
has made an earnest effort, but failed.
I'VE were prepared to meet the men
of the National league in the open and
strive for a fair and just settlement
We were mindful of the fact that the
patrons of the game the country over
wanted peace, and to serves the best
interests of baseball we were prepared
to do our part 10 bring about peace.
No substantial good could come from
a conference with a committee that has
limited power. 1t would simply be a
waste of time and energy"
The reply of Chairman Hermann of
the National league committee to the
communication of Ran Johnson that
the old league would have to vote its
representatives full power to negotiate
terms of peace before they would be
treated with by the American league
was received today, but Johnson would
not make public the letter.
There are too many ifs in the letter
to suit me-" he said, ard there will
be no meeting of the two committees
Monday. although there may be later
in the week, but that is uncertain"

Kramer, however, still refused to go
against Lawson and was roasted by
the eastern press for SO doing.
Iver says his brother Gussie is now
with Bobby Walthour, the Atlanta
champion, and acts as his paeemaker in

he had not kept an exact account Of

in pushing liver to the front in such

1t win be remembered that Frank
Kramer, the East Orange rider, cap
tured the n. c. A. championship this
year, owing to the fact that Iver was
in Europe for a greater part of the
season and when he returned to Amer
lea was so unfortunate as to break his
collar bone the first week, which
kept him off the track until it was too
late to overcome the long lead gained
by Kramer. However, when Lawson
did again get into shape he had little
trouble in disposing of Kramer and de-
feated him the last six times they met.
A match had been arranged between
Bald, Kramer and Lawson, the three
leading riders of the world, to take
place at Madison Square Garden this
fall. but when it came to a showdown.
Kramer backed out and refused to meet
the Salt Laker. Kramer said at the
time that he would ride Bald, Major
Taylor or any other rider in the world
but was not willing to risk his reputa-
ton against Lawson.
Manager Powers Of Madison Square
Garden offered Kramer $500 if he
would start in a race against Lawson,

SLAUGHTER OF BuHNIEs
WHOLE COUNTY INTERESTED IN
SPORT OF SEASON.

Mt. Pleasant, Jan. 3-Rabbit hunting
Is being carried on with great vigor in
this part of the state at the present
time, il having become for the time
being the principal sport Of the season.
The contests are being carried on up
and down this valley every day be-
tween different towns and between two
parties selected from one of the towns,
until on some days three or four hunts
are in progress at the same time.
Yesterday there was an exciting hunt
in the hills near here between two
picked teams from this city. under the
leadership of James D. Meyrick and A.
Z. Peterson. The Peterson forces won
by twenty-seven, killing 323 to their
opponents 296. John K. Madsen was
the champion single shot of the party,
bagging ffty-five Dummies during the
hunt.
A dance was the prize. and the win
ners were given free passes to the
party last night at the expense Of the
losers.
Two accidents were reported. one
man having a portion OF his gun shot
away and another receiving a charge
Of shot in the sleeve of his coat. Mel
Their, however, was seriously injured
During the hunt a party Of hunters
from Fairview, who were out in a sim
liar capacity, were encountered, but
the two gangs separated soon after.
During the past month Mt. Pleas
ants crack hunters have sent chal-
lenges, both written and verbal, broad
cast through the state, in the hope Of
getting a rabbit hunting contest for
almost any amount of money, and
with any gun club or party OF hunters
that might be found Yesterday the
challenge was accepted and a hunt has
been arranged for
MOroni was the town from which the
acceptance came. That town has been
doing good work in the field lately and
believes it can meet the local boys
with good chances. The preliminaries
were arranged yesterday between
James F. Jensen acting for Mt. Pleas
ant, and P. c. Christensen, as Moronis
representative. A bet of 800 a side was
agreed upon and one-half that amount
posted as a forfeit There will be
twenty men from each town, the hunt
to take place next Thursday in the
low mountains between the two cities.
The two towns have contested before
with varying results, and as there is
considerable rivalry existing between
them as a consequence, the coming
contest cannot fail to be holly con
tested and interesting.

FLOODS STOP TRAINS
SnoWslides and Water Cut Of
Service Between Seattle

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 3.-The Great
Northern coast line and the Northern
Pacific's line 10 Sumas are the only
lines of railroad running out Of Seattle
which are open tonight. For three
hours today even these lines were
blocked by slides
Floods have interrupted the train
service on the west side of the noun

added to the trouble. In addition there
have been numerous small slides oc-
curing on the west side lines
The electric line running between
this city and Tacoma was open for a
part of the day, slides occurring last
night having been cleared, but at
o'clock tonight all trains were Cancelled
and notice was given that further COM

bic for an indefinite period. Tonight
the Northern Pacific Cancelled its Port
land train, and this morning the Co

STILL A SPLIT AMONG
DELAWARE REPUBLICANS

Wilmington, Del, Jan. 3.-The regu-
lar Republican members Of the gen
eral assembly met here to consider the
proposition presented yesterday by the
Union. or Addicks, Republicans con
corning a division of the offices of the
legislature. The Union Republican
committee stated its willingness to
divide %he Offices equally. providing the
officers were chosen by a caucus of all
the Republican members of the assem-
bly,. It is. stated that this proposition
is not acceptable to the regulars. for
the reason that Il they should partiei-
pate in a joint caucus on the question
Of officers and decline to DO so on the
question of the election Of a United.
States senator, they might be subject
TO criticism. The whole matter was
postponed until Monday
The regulars favor the selection of
officers by each faction. and announce
their disapproval Of any caucuses with
the Addicks adherents.

BASKET BALL MATTERS.
Physical Director Nelson of W. S. A.
Is After Games.

Is After Games.
Alfred Nelson, physical director OF
the Weber Stake academy of ogden,
was in the city yesterday. and while
here talked over basket ball matters
for the coming season. Nelson says
the academy will have both a boys
and girls basket ball team in the field
this year, and that they viii be pre-
pared TO meet all Corners.
In discussing the future of the game
with Physical Director Bassett of the
L. d. S. T., the proposition of a state
basket ball league was brought up.
and it may be possible that such a
thing viii be arranged. 1t is under
stood that the 3. Y. C-Of Logan, B.
Y. A of Provo, W. S. A Of Ogden and
L. d. s. L. of Salt Lake will all have
good teams that would be eligible 10
enter the league. A league Of this
kind would be a big undertaking on
account of the expenses necessary to
carry it through. Still, it is thought
that each team could meet the other
team at least twice during the season.
which would efrectually settle the state
championship.

WILL BLACKLIST PLAYERS.
President Lucas Invokes Aid of Ma
tional Association.

Spokane, Wash. Jan. 3.-President
W. H. Lucas of the Pacific Northwest
Baseball league is authority for the
statement that the national associ-
ton of minor leagues has agreed to
put every player on the blacklist who
plays with the Pacific Coast league
after April 1, whether he has or not
left a protected team, has secured or
failed to secure a release from such
team or has never played baseball
before
President Lucas states that a $500
fine viii be enforced before such play
er can join team in the national as
ISOLATION. He states that when a play
er unites with an organization working
against the national association he IS
working against the association itself
and it would not be right for him to
come in and enjoy its protection with
out paying for his misdeeds.
