New York. June l6-With uuceasing effort, searching for the bodies still goes on. All day from sunrise until dark the search was kept up and 536 bodies were recovered, the greater number being women and children; mothers wto weeks ago had planned that fatal outing for their children, little ones who bad longed for the happy day.
 FoIr hundred and ninety-nine bodies have passed through the mOrgue of which 300 were identified. The East side had its human sympathies aroused to the fullest extent. and by the river where the boats unload thei' dead. thousands gathered throughout the day. The streets leading to the morgue were blocked and only with difficulty could the police keep clear the passages leading to the long rows of collins. for those who came to search for the missing.
 As far as was within their power. the divers searched the wreck from stem to stern, but there were masses of broken timhers through which it was impossible to explore, and it may be that some will find grave under those sunken timbers until the hulk is raised or the waters Of the sound wash away the last traces of the wreck age. At this point the water is deep and the currents are swift and beyond doubt many bodies have been born

THE REAL DICTATORS.

The national commission handed down
several important decisions last week
which tend to show that the men who are
financially interested in the game will be
the real dictators this year, and the players
case of most interest was that of Phil
Geier who was told that he would either
have to sign with the Boston Nationals or
not play at all. Geier signed. He was also
subject to a fine for not reporting before a
certain fixed date. A few players have
failed to realize that they have no place to
go to play ball i'm case they cannot come
to terms with the clubs that have them
under reserve or contract. But one by one
they have seen their folly and have signed,
and only few are still out in the cold.
While there has been a tendency to reduce
salaries. nearly every club manager in the
country has increased the pay of men who
are capable and who play fast ball Club
managers are willing to pay players what
they are worth, but they will not pay ex-
orbitant salaries any more. at least as
long as baseball is under the national agree
ment. Even i'm the minor leagues players
have received an increase over what they
drew last year, but the high salaried men
have been forced to accept a reduction. A
few players may be disgruntled at the turn
of affairs. but it is up to them to play
Just as good ball at a lower salary as they
did when receiving a princely income for
their services. If they don't they be
benched or suspended without pay until
they are willing to get into the game and
work for the good of the team.

HOGRIEVER IN THE FOLD.

The most pleasing piece of news to the
local baseball fans last week was the an
nouncement that George Hogriever and
the Indianapolis club had come to terms.
While it might have been possible to have
Of the sun garden well as Hogriever,
yet there are thousands of baseball fans In
this city who would have thought the team
incomplete without the hustling little fielder
i'm the game. While there was much argu-
ment and several conferences between the
player and manager before the former put
his autograph to a contract it was an
nounced that both were satisfied with the
result. Phillips knows that the sun field will
be we'll taken care of and he believes he can
get as good work out of Hogriever as any
manager. Hogriever is also very friendly
TO Phillips, and he says he will continue to
give the team his best efforts. With
Hogriever in the fold and the chances of
obtaining good left fielder, the Hoosers
begin to look like a championship posi-
bility in the coming American Association
race. The team is made up of youngsters.
with enough old and experienced men in the
lot to make it we'll balanced. Now it is up
to Manager Phillips and Captain Magoon
team work The men may be fast in the
field end hard hitters, but they must play
together in order to win. Several weak
points have been noticed in the exhibition
games. but Phillips says that within a
couple of weeks the team will be playing
with clock-like precision.

GROWTH OF BASEBALL
IN THIS COUNTRY

Harry Pulliam, in Illustrated Sporting
News.
The evolution of baseball, down to the
present day, where it is at its zenith of pop
ularity as the national game of America,
is most interesting We are told that ball
playing of certain character was INDUCED
in by the ancients. Among the sports of
the Greeks and Romans was a species of
ball-playing which was indulged in to give
elasticity to the muscles and grace to the
body. 1t is matter of history that the
Greeks erected a monument to Aristonicus,
the Mathewson or Philippi of his time,
for his skill in the use of the ball Who
knows but what the ancient city of Phillip
was not founded as a tribute of admiration
Tor the proweSS displayed on the ball field
by some ancient ancestor of Philippe the
pride or the Pittsburg champions, At
tached TO the Greek gymnasia and Roman
DdtnS were the apartments set apart and
used by athletes of those days for ball
playing; and who knows but what the
original vict: of the Arena was not some
hapleSs umpirel
Coming down to the sixteenth century
We find that ball players were called upon
TO display their skill before the courts of
Italy and France. The modern game of
Dasenail, as now played in America. came
odils 10 5hls country from England through the
FOUNDERS" AT first it was town BALL"
and In 1853 the Olympic Club of Philadel-
phia was formed to play this game The
Knickerbocker Club, of New York, organ
lied in lSi5, was the pioneer baseball club
OF TINS country to play under a regular
code Of playing rules. The progress made
In the game from the time of the Knicker-
bockers in 1S45 resulted in the formation of
the National Association of Baseball Play
ers, the first meeting of which was held in
Cooper Union, New York, March 8, 1859.
In the sixties baseball began to boom and
expand and clubs were organized all over
New England, the East generally and the
middle West. The game was then on an
amateur basis and clubs travelled inde-
pendently OF each other and played many
memorable contests the result Of chai-
lenges issued and accepted. In 1869 the first
regular championship professional team
was organized in the Cincinnati Red
Stockings, which travelled from Maine to
California, playing fifty-six games in all
without losing one, and scoring 2,3S9 runs
to 574 for their opponents.

in every household addicted to 'the
draughts Madness
Charles Hefter was born at Mobile, Ala,
Nov. 2S, 1860 He began the study of
draughts when about twelve years of age.
Under the tutelage of Mr.. j. Riedy he ad-
vanced rapidly as an across-board player.
Indeed. his coming to Chicago at an early
age and his taking up of the game in
creased the popularity of checkers not only
in Illinois, but throughout Indiana and all
the adjacent States.
Soon all the players who met him were
forced to admit his superiority, and for
a time he enjoyed an uninterrupted Sue
cess.
Mr.. Hefters first notable defeat was at
only a boy then, and the score Of Barker
s. Hefter 2. drawn IS, indicates a victory
to those who are aware of what it means
to play against Charlie Barker.
When he was seventeen years old Mr.
Hefter journeyed East and met Barker
again. This time the score was even. Dur
ing this tour he tied with Kirkwood, Little
field and Merry. and defeated Freeman, HILL
Bowen. Bowdish, Bugbee and Irwin. His
only defeat was at the hands Of the late
and probably the most precocious checker
player that ever lived.
In subsequent match Mr.. Hefter lost
to ]. P. Reed. of Pittsburg, by the score:
Reed. IL; Hefter, 10; drawn, %. But after
that he lost no more
AS an analyst and critic Mr. Hefter has
been a contributor to all American and
European draughts columns and magazines
for years. AS an editor, when but fourteen
years old, he conducted the draughts
column of the Chicago Post, and assisted
on the columns then running in the Chi
cago Sunday Tribune and Cleveland Sum-
day Sun. His crowning efforts as an editor
may be said to have been made when, In
conjunction with J. p. Reed and e. L.
Barker, he had charge of the American
Checker Review.
1t must not be forgotten that he con-
tributed the American Games" section to
of Matches Nor should his shadow be
less in the students memory for his sue
cessful prize winning in the problem tour
neys held by the Cleveland Sun, Leeds's s
Mercury, Liverpool Mercury and the Wild
Oats.
For a time Mr. Hefter retired from
| across board play, but in 1898 he defeated
Clarence Freeman and since then has been
much in evidence at the rooms of the Chi
cago Chess and Checker Club.
1t is probably no exaggeration to state
that he is the most finished end-game
student in the West. Having in mind the
| Barker school at Boston, the e. T. Davis
coterie, of Minneapolis, and the New York
| fraternity well, the statement must still
| be made that Charles Hefter is the most
| superior problematst and checker tech
| nicist living, not even Dearborn excepted.

READY FOR SEASON.

The American Association will launch
another championship season on next
Wednesday. and judging from the reports
from the various managers, about eight
clubs will occupy first or second place at
the close of the season. OF course. this is
impossible but there is no law against
baseball managers kidding themselves. 1t
does no harm. The association this season
should be more prosperous than any year
Of its existence. With no opposition in Mil
waukee and Kansas City, the clubs in those
cities will have a chance to place a profit
on the ledgers and the visiting clubs will
be benefited as we'll. With organized base
ball the clubs will have better control OF
their players. and will also be able to save
considerable in salaries. Not one OF the
teams will enter the season with the same
lineup as last year In some cases the
teams have been weakened by the loss of
star players. but it is gratifying to note
that every manager has made an endeavor
to obtain the best players available and the
race this season should be interesting. A
number Of hustlng youngsters will be
found with a majority of the teams. and
they should be able to deliver the goods.
Toledo has been strengthened and this will
tend to make the entire race more exciting.
There were times during the past two sea-
sons that Toledo considered worse
than an amateur team, but Manager Long
promises an outfit OF real ball players.
Columbus has been strengthened some
what Louisville will be about the same as
last season. while Indianapolis should be
much faster. In the West, Minneapolis
has received more attention than any of the
Western clubs, and Manager Watkins
should keep the Millers well to the front
Manager Kelly has hopes of getting good
results from his Saints. Kansas City has
been strengthened. but Milwaukee is even
weaker than las
