Athletic Meeting AT St. Johns

At meeting of the captains of the
different teams and other prominent
athletic men at st. Johns College last
night, the status of st. Johns towards
the other colleges in the state was
discussed. Prof. Richardson, of the
Maryland Agricultural College, was
present, and stated his colleges stand
ing in the same matter. 1t turned out
that ST. Johns and Maryland Agricul-
tural are fighting for the same end.
that of absolutely clean athletics.
The cause of the meeting was that
certain college in the state has been
playing graduate students ON her team,
and the wisdom of playing against
this college under these conditions
was questioned, as college which
plays strictly bona fide, undergraduate
students would have everything to
lose and nothing TO gain. st. Johns
has held the championship Of the state
in football for some years, and if she,
playing a strictly student team, were
to compete with teams which play
graduates, she would be handicapped,
and it would do her no good. The
landAgricultural College, through
Professor Richardson, stands by st.
Johns in the stand she is taking, and
although it is late this year, next sea
sons plans may be stated for the for
nation of another league similar TO
the one in existence some years ago.

Business Men Meet

The regular bi. i.monthly meeting of
the Business Mems Association was
held last night at the quarters of In
dependent Fire Company No. 2, Pres
ident w. H. Moss, presiding. The
meeting was fairly well attended.
Among other things taken up for con-
sideration was the formation of O Mn
tual Fire Insurance Company, which
was thoroughly discussed by all pres
ent, everyone being heartily in favor
of such company. Mr.. George L.
Melvin offered the following motion,
which was adopted That Messrs.
John dep. Douw, Henry b. Myers,
George 9. Barton, Louis Baer, John b.
Flood, William +. Childs, George L.
Melvin, Thomas j. Linthicum, Jr
Harry L. Brewer and Mayor Samuel
Jones, meet and form said fire insur-
ance company, the committee to des-
ignate the name. The meeting of this
committee will be held sometime next
week. The organization of such q fire
insurance company will mean much
for the city. 1t will mean cheaper
rates and less limited features of in
surance. Since the Baltimore fire in
surance companies have surrounded in
surance with many difficulties and in.
creased the rate Home companies.
like that proposed by the Business
Mems Association, have been success
fully established elsewhere, and there
is no reason why such an organization
cannot be affected here to the material
satisfaction and benefit of all parties
concerned.

cision Is Given In The
Matter.

Attorney General William Shepard

TO Col. Oswald Tilghman, Secretary
OF State in regard to the name of
John E. Mudd, Independent Republi-
can candidate for Congress from the
Fifth district. Mr.. John Il. Mudd' rs
name will go upon the ballot.
This was finally decided yesterday
by Attorney General Bryan. who rem
dered an important opinion, LAYING
down rules that will hereafter govern
all similar nomination papers that
may be submitted during his incum.
bency as Attorney General In his
opinion Mr.. Bryan disregards the
affidavits concerning the signatures
of dead men supposed 20 be ON the
papers submitted by Mr.. Putzel and
tells Secretary of State Oswald Thigh
man that. no matter how strongly ha
may suspect fraud, unless he has
personal knowledge of such fraud he
must accept the papers.
Mr.. Bryan ruled off eighty eight of
the names on the paper because of ir-
regularities, which he sets forth in
his opinion. This leaves 314 names
which, he asserts, are good and valid,
just fourteen more than is necessary TO
bring about the nomination. Comply.
ing with the decision of Attorney
General Bryan in the matter of the
placing of the name of John E. Mudd
