NORFOLK CLAIMS MATHEwsoN
The Virginia Club Believes Pitcher
Was Taken from It UnlawfnlIv.

New York, Feb. 16.-The Norfolk, Va,
baseball club has sued the New York team
for $1,000, declaring that Pitcher Mathew
son was taken from them without the
conditions of the transfer being carried
out. The facts of the case, as cited in
the bill of complaint, are as follows:
Pitcher M~athewSOn was under contract
to the Norfolk club in 1899 and 1900. This
club was a member of the Virginia State
league, and this league was a party to
the national agreement.
In July, 1900, the Norfolk club realized
that Mathewson was too good for a minor
league team, and made an agreement
with the New York club, under which
they released him to the New York club,
with the understanding that Mathewson
was to play the remainder of the season
with the Giants. but his salary was to be
paid by the Norfolk club.
If, at the end of the season, Mathew
sons work had proved such that the New
York club wanted to keep him for the
next year, then the New York club was
to pay the Norfolk club 5000 for his re-
lease. Mathewson was such a success
that the New York club did want to re-
tain his services for the following year.
1t is claimed by the plaintiffs to the ac-
ton that the New York club, therefore,,
notified the Norfolk club that it did not
want the famous pitcher, and the very
next day the Cincinnati club drafted him,
and sent a check for 500 to the Norfolk
club. The day after this the complain
ant states the Cincinnati club traded

to Santa Barbara to remain for perhaps
a couple of onthS Mrs. Ripley spent
the evening in Los Angeles with friends
while her husband came out to dine
with the Spragues and pass the night
with them.
Business is good, very good in fact, -
said Mr.. Ripley, land everything is
moving along nicely. Passenger traffic
is also good. The tourist travel to Cali
fornia is very heavy. 1t is heavier this
winter thar it ever has been before.
California is having the biggest tourist
season in it's history n the Santa Fe
is getting its share of the business"
Have you any plans for the building
of extensions or making any improve
ments on your lines in southern Cali
fornia?" was asked.
Nothing at all" was the reply. I'VE
have about all the lines we require at
present. OF course there are certain
improvements that are always planned
and which we always have to keep max
ing, but we have no particular improve
ment work in view. Our lines are in
pretty good shape everywhere"

$4,000 Suit Against
Santa Fe Thrown Out.
Judge Madden a Stumbling
Block to Claimants.
V TIL R. r. SAG. 900
Decides Against His
Own Brother.
Lambert & HIGGINS Making
Money for Santa Fe.

Emporia, Kan, Feb. 16.-The suit for
$40, 900 damages against the Santa Fe
railroad because j. N. Starr was killed
by q Santa Fe train in 1900 was started
in the district court Saturday. The
plaintiffs evidence was hat Mr.. Starr
was going from the freight depot on
Merchant street to the passenger depot
on Neosho street, and when between
Constitution and Merchant was struck
by a boxcar that was making a flying
switch. The car al over him and kill
ed him. His administrator, Charles
Schwindt brought suit for damages.
AS soon as the plaintiffs evidence
was all in, I. E. Lambert and W. L.
Higgins for the railroad threw the de-
rail switch. Engineers Kellogg and
Madden of the Starr special had the
throttle wide open with orders for right
of way at all points and ran into the
siding, full speed. The demurrer argu-
ed by Lambert & Higgins was sus-
tanned by Judge Madden and the Starr
engineers, Kellogg and Madden escap-
ed with slight injuries. John Madden's
sense of justice was badly smashed.
Kellogg & Madden after emerging from
the wreck took an appeal to the Su-
preme court and will try to find Lam
bert & Higgins guilty of throwing the
switch when the special had orders to
go straight ahead n will endeavor to
hold Judge Madden for putting the
special on the side track when they
think it should have gone to the jury.
Judge Madden decided that Starr was
guilty of carelessnese which resulted
in his own death. The case was dis
missed.
This decision was exactly parallel to
the Hopes decision rendered last Fri
day, throwing the $40, 600 Hopes case
out of court. The Jim Higgins case
was thrown out of court on the same
grounds. This makes three cases ag-
gregating $45, 600 damages against the
Santa Fe that Lambert & Higgins
have succeeded in getting thrown out
of court in the past two terms of dis
trict court.

Since the visit of General Passenger
Agent Anderson to the island some

American colonization of Cuba Upon
his return Colonel Anderson announced
that he had succeeded in securing OPP
tions of several hundr thousand acres
of lands which would be placed in the
hands of the immigration department
for disposition to homeseekers. Since
that time the total acreage in options
has been greatly augmented until now
the Southern Pacific controls nearly

champion feather weight, may be match
ed loon to box six rounds in this city.
The directors of Battery D club on the

a purse of 1900 for a match between the
pair, and it is probable that Hanlon will
see the virtue of such a purse and accept
the terms. Yanger already is on record.
He claims to be wild for the meeting.
The boys hay met twice. On the occa-
sion of their first engagement, June 30.
they went 20 rounds to a difficult draw.

his career had a black mark chalked up
in his record. HanlOn getting the decision

starter in the American Derby June IS.

owner, Garnet Ferguson, to a staff
correspondent at the Ingleside tract
the day Del Fountains selling platter
Modicum won the Burns handicap.
Tell the Chicago people that Bear
catcher will face the barrier positively
on Derby day providing he stands on
not raced in Chicago since 1898, but
this year I will ship my entire stable
there and my colors will be prominent
in all stakes at Washington park,
Harlem, Hawthorne and Worth"
The California Derby is now believed
to be at the mercy of Bearcatcher. His
only real opponents will be Foremost
er, Rockaway and Judge. Having
beaten these every time he has met
them, horsemen believe he will turn
the trick again with the utmost ease.
