CQ0 cuu.
We are not in q position to
state positively that Aessrs.
Burke ana Lourd will off1c,ate
Manager and Captain respectively
but w do assert that such is the
status of tho situation to be seen
or heard. And such q selection
will be hailed with greatst delight
by base ball fans not alone IN our
city but over the proposed
circuit. ...
Something def1nlte will be &C
complished during the early par,
Of the present month.
OF course the success of this
effort will rest with our business
men and other interested parties.
Last year the local management
met with several unfortunate
circumstances which necessitated
the outlay Of considerable money.
This season the salary will in all
probality be limited to 800 per
month, and therefore no town in
the League will have near The ex
pen.e Of last teasun. hut nevcrthe.

ney to back their champio" stars
and in due COURSE Of time the ma
nagement will cali upon our citi
zens for support.
No one doubts ti,at this support
will be for Incoming; as we not
only have enthusiastic lovers OIL

thiag through which they under

Of the city at heart.

Will Probably be Re-Organized
for 1904
Jack r, Burke Will Manage the
Locals

Sugar Belt Base Ball League
will in all probability be reorgan-
lied within the course of 9 very
short time for the 1904 season,
which is so rapidly approaching.
All indications point that way and
there is no reason to believe that
any thing will occur to effect the
movement now SO we'll under way
Jack r. Burke, manager of the
local playhouse, is at the head OF
the movement to re-establish
the League on solid business ba-
ses and he has been corresponding
with the managers of last seasons
teams IN Morgan City, Plaquemlne'
Thibodaux, Donaldsonville, with
the result that some favorable
replies have been received which
indicate that a meeting will be
called for the near future to per-
feet all the necessary details
for placing in the field a real fast
minor League.
New Iberia will, of course, be
embraced in the proposed Sugar
Belt League, and Mr.. Burke will
very likely manage the locals
He is just the sort of a man to
get together fast aggregation of
ball tossers, and his past expirien
ce will prove quite valuable 10
him during the coming season.
Besides he is a cracker-jack ball
player himself and will undoubtly
tdon n. l. uniform, which in it
self means a great deal.
"Bilr' Lourd is mentioned as
probably captain of the locals.
Every one is fully aware of the
fact that "Bill' is one Of The fast
est and cleverest ball tOssers that
this city or section has ever pro
duced besides a thoroughly athelet
in every sense and a ,oung gentle
man in the true sense of the wore

Lourd as Captain, there is NJ
doubt Whatsoever but that New

FIRST TRAIN TODAY.
Cars Loaded With Earth to Be Propel-
led Across Capitol Plaza.

The first train will be run over the III.
R. and u. S." railroad this afternoon at 4
o'clock. Putting away at great rate the
little 'dinkie' engine will pull eight cars
loaded with earth from the site of the new
House of Representatives office building
across the plaza in front of the Capitol,
over hundred-foot span steel bridge above
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad tracks and
on to a twentyfoot trestle, from which its
cargo will be unloaded.
The contractors have been over a month
building the little 36-inch guage road, and
1t has cost them over $4,000. The greatest
care has been taken not to injure the paw
ing over which 1t passes, and to provide
safe crossing for pedestrians and vehicles
The railway tracks emerge from the
fenced-in office building site about midway
between and c streets on New Jersey
avenue southeast. Running north, they
cross the Capital Traction Companys street
car tracks on B street. and curve with the
grade out on to the Capitol plaza: thence
across the center, directly under the shadow
of the big dome. turning doWnhill on the
north and taking the west side of North
Capitol street. At c street northeast the
metropolitan street car tracks are crossed
The little road then continues through a
cut in a vacant lot until it gets to the Bal
timore and Ohio tracks where they emerge
from the station. Swinging around to the
left it runs out on the steel bridge and
continues along the trestle to its terminus
On this road the $1,000 cubic yards Of
earth to be excavated from the office build
ing site will be removed and used for grad
ing purposes at the union station and in
the vicinity.
Two big steam shovels are at work on the
office building site. One will fill the rail-
road cars, each of which holds three cubic
yards, and the other will fill wagons, which
Will take the earth to the War College in
the southwest and the little train alone
will supply the union station
Three engines will be used on the railroad,
and 1t is estimated that LOCO feet a day will
be carried across in front of the Capitol.
although there Is considerable uncertainty
as to the exact quantity. because the con-
tractors cannot tell Just what effect the
grades VIII have on the speed of the trains.

then, from am until II pm"
Twelve feet is the width of the right Of

and this has been inclosed with a four-foot

Is entirely removed and the running of the
