SPORTING news.
Manager of the White Stockings
Has His Players Picked.
Callahan Says Sixteen Men viii
Do This Season.
TO KEEP SIX PITCHERS
twill Be Noted That FIaherty's
Name Is Missing.
White, AltrOck, Owen, Patter-
son, Walsh and Smith Stay.

Washington, d. c., May 1S.-Manager
Callahan has practically decided on
the makeup of the White Stockings for
this season, providing the rule limiting
club to sixteen players is put into ef-
feet by the American league June /
Twenty-th-ee players are now under
contract toPresident Comiskey and one
-Spade-is working with the other ex-
ira men, but draws no salary, his ex-
penses only being footed by the Chi
cago club. Out of this bunch there are
a number Callahan would like to keep,
but if the sixteen-men limit is enforced
he must trim down to the required
number.
It is CaIlahan's desire to carry six
pitchers and only one utility man this
season He has so many twirlers that
look good to MIN that he wants to re-
tain all he can.
The list, as he is now figuring it, is
as follows:
Pitchers White, Altrock, Owen, Pat
terson, Walsh and Smith.
Catchers-Sullivan and Mcfarland.
Infelders-Donohue, Callahan, Davis
and Tannehill.
Outfielders-Green, Fielder Jones
and Holmes.
Utility-Isbell.
This list gives him his limit of six
teen players.
1t will be noted that Flaherty'S name
is missing in this list Flaherty has
not come up to expectations and if
any one can be found willing to as
sumo his contract Callahan will prob
ably relinquish his claim on him. Fla
herty has an ironclad contract with
Comisxey, made in war times and eX-
tending over this season, so he will
have to be retained unless his contract
can be disposed of, as was Tom Days
last year to Cincinnati.
George Tebeau. who has Flaherty at
Louisville wnen Comiskey signed him
in the fall of 1902, has put in claim
for the little southpaw should Comis-
key attempt to dispose of him, but as
Flaherty was war property awarded
to the south side club by the peace
agreement, Tebeau's claim is not re-
garded as valid. If no satisfactory dis
position can be made of Flaherty's con-
tract which calls for a wartime sal
ary he will be kept on the club and
either Smith or Walsh will have to go,
it is said.

Chicago, May 1S.-"The Pirates

This is Frank Selee's answer to

day with friends in this city. He spoke
of the situation in the far east as pos

There seems to be an undercurrent
in Russia's favor he said Germany,
Italy and probably France, are favor
able to Russia, and may openly become
her allies. The war might thus result
in a partition of China. If it does it
will involve all the great nations of
the world and we viii be drawn into
it. The war may be over in a year,
the powers interfering for humanity's
sake to put a stop to bloodshed.'
Captain Hobson expressed the opin-

lasted only a year or less. If it lasts
longer. he believes Russia will win.
