yam, than whom there Is no more respect
ed or thoro racing official in this country,

Judge Trevelyan's startling ruling Is
herewith appended: a.

ruled off on account Of the 4-year- old fllly

The ruling off Of j. Gray, who is a broth
err Of Jockey Charlie Gray, and Mat Eos
ter, who is a brothersof Fred Foster, for
merly of st. Paul. and the suspension Of
Jockey Gray, is the elimination Of one Of
the biggest killings of the. year. engineered
by the Fosters at Harlem on June 8, when
Poseur, after being backed from as good
as 40 to to to 1, easily won her race.
Not many days before, on June 1, Poseur

identically the same conditions and, with
no money by her stable, finished last, beat

BASEBALL WAR
SURELY COMING
NATIONAL BASEBALL COMMITS
SION rs A FAILURE.
National League Millionaires Willing
to Fight to Get Star Players
American Magnates Announce a
Willingness to Meet Them Half
Way-Peace Out of the Question.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Chicago, July 6.-Jack Tanner, writing
in the Inter-Ocean, says today: @
Unless the cold -blooded but really clev-
er politicians who are working behind the
scenes and shaping the baseball affairs Of
the nation change their minds between
this date and the close Of the present sea-
son, another war between the two big
leagues will be inaugurated this fall.
The leading men in both the National
and American. leagues are weary of the
peace, harmony and organized baseball
policy, and are now looking for trouble.
These men are now sharpening their
knives. reloading their rapid-fr guns, and
searching for an excuse to issue the for
NAL declaration Of war.
Both leagues claim to be confident Of
victory, and the amusing feature Of it all
time in preparing for the coming clash, re-
joicing in the idea that their plans for
the campaign are shrouded in secrecy.
What is more, both leagues are appar-
emily confident Of their ground, and are
now only looking for an excuse to start
the fight. It is merely question Of which
side throws down the gauntlet first
Here are the conditions as they exist
now: The national commission, consist
ing of Chairman Gerry Hermann of Gin
cinnati, B. B. Johnson, president of the
American league, and Henry Clay Pull
liam, president Of the National league, and
supposed to be- the supreme court of pro-
fessional BASEBALL, has ceased to be an i'm
portant factor in the political end of the
sport. ,ts
The complete failure Of the national
commission is merely an incident in this
rather clever bit of political Juggling, but
at that it may be used as an excuse for
a declaration Of war.
The Nationals are now counting a. chance
to break all existing peace conditions and
go out In the open after ball players. The
new owners Of the Philadelphia club are
millionaires and are really hungry for an
opportunity to secure enough star ball
players to give the town Of peace and
silence championship team.
| Over in Boston, Messrs, Soden, Conant
and Billings have decided that the only
way to regain the lost patronage In bean
town is to go out and spend big money
for real ball players. All the other cities
In the National circuit are willing to stand
for a fight and spend big money for sta1
players. There are not enough real stat
ball players to fill two big leagues. And
last Of ALL it will be a war Of extermina.
ton between the National, and American
leagues. It will be fight to finish.
