to restrain the defendant from taking any
artion looking to the collection of fine
which the complainant alleges was Illegally
imposed against him at a meetings0f the
union held the first Saturday of last De-
cember. Further, the court is asked to en-
join the pressmens union from taking any
action whatever to suspend OF expel him

the International Printing Pressmen's
Union of North America. The officers of
PENDANTS.

MAKES GOOD MOVE.
Pimlico Officials to Stop Betting In
Grand Stand.

The Maryland Jockey Club. which OPP
Ell ates the Pimlico track under the auspices
of the Jockey Club, has decided that bet
ting commissioners" will not be allowed III
the grand stand at future meetings. This
action has been taken with the IDEA Oh
putting a stop to the speculation by women
who come to the race tracks without es-
ccrts. The stewards of the Jockey Cluo
have had their attention repeatedly calleo
L, the growth of this evil on the New York
tracks, but so far no notice has been PAID
to it. Men who have the best interests OF
the turf at heart have been outspoken IN
regard to the practice, which caused plenty
Of scandal last season at all the tracks.
There is enough speculation in the bettihs
ring without the grand stand. The COM
missfOners who handled the womenS money
last year were accused of cold-blooded rop-
berry, while others were charged with petit
larceny by their patrons. Yet nothing was
done beyond the laying off of several OF the
guilty ones, whose places were quickly
filled by others. Said one of the of1clals at
the Benning track last fall in discussing
the matter
1.-The betting in the grand stand should De
abolished How can 1t be stopped! Why'
abolish the betting commissioners! II a
woman comes to the track with an escort
he can bet for her in the ring. II she
comes to the races unaccompaned, she
cannot bet at ALL Under such 'circum-
stances the number OF women regulars
would be greatly decreased. The Jockey
club should take action before another
year" ~
The example set by the Baltimoreans,
therefore, should be followed, If the turf is
to be kept on a high plane.

COMMISSION MEETS TODAY.
Base Ball Leaders Will Frame Rules
for World Series

The national commission, otherwise
known as the supreme court of profess
sional base ball. will hold an important
meeting at Cincinnati today. The commits
sion consists of Ban Johnson president of
the American League: H. c. Puiliam, pres
ident of the National League. and Garry
Hermann of the Cincinnati Nationals, who
is chairman. Public interest in the pro-
ceedings will be centered in the making
of rules and conditions under which
worlds series will be played next fall be-
tween the pennant winners in the Ameri-
can and the National leagues. Ball play
ers also will await with much eagerness
this rule making business for the reason
that they are anxious to Know how the
gate receipts will be cut up. In view of
the policy of some of the men who pay sal
aries it will not be at all surprising if the
ball players who contest for the world S
championship are treated with cold fnd1f-
ference, or rather receive comparatively
small slice of the gold that pours in at
the box offices. for 1t is understood that the
"magnates" feel that they are entitled to
all that they can get hold of in view of
the high salaries that are paid nowadays.
The commission will go over the minor
league situation at length. AS the case
stands now. the American League is against
making any concessions to the minors in
the way of increasing the drafting price
for players and decreasing the number to
be drafted. The National League, which
several years ago abolished the national
agreement and adopted piratical methods
in securing minor league players for moth
ing, has voted to give the minors what
they want AS the minors cannot gain a
single point without a unanimous vote.
the National League Is perfectly safe with
another great bluff. The commission will
also be asked to look into the charges made
by James A. Hart against Pitcher Jack
Taylor of st. Louis. Hart, some time ago.
declared that when Taylor was a member
of no 700 Ma na1 he rayUb n
game to the Chicago Americans. Now that
Taylor and Charley Comiskey. the owner
of the Americans, want to have the mat
ter investigated, Hart says there is no
Taylor case at all, and will not attend
the meeting. While peace Is prevalent on
the surface in the base ball world the
bitter feeling between the two big leagues
still exists, and 1t would require only a
small spark to set the conflagration Of two
years ago burning again with more vigor
than before.

NATIONALS BLUFF AGAIN.
Now Hot After Spring Series Between
Boston and New York.

John T. Brush, president of the New York
Nationals, is in Gatham. says the New
York Sun, and when asked yesterday If he
had read President Taylor's statement that
the Boston Americans would not meet Nc
Graws men In worlds championship Sc
ries this spring said:
Il do not blame Mr.. Taylor He does not
care to take any chances of having his team
defeated, which 1 think would happen if
he consented to play u.s.
Brush said that If McGraw's men should
win the National League championship
again they would probably meet the winner
of the American League pennant next fall
in accordance with the recent vote of the
National League men in New York city. II
the New York Americans should win the
pennant would Brush still be willing to
play? Last fall, when both the Boston and
New York Americans challenged McGraws
am. Brush and McGraw were afraid to
take chances. Taylor and Farrell feared
nothing, and the public was with them. To
accuse Taylor of cowardice at this late
stage, therefore, can only be attributed to
an attempt to throw dust in the eyes of the
base ball fans who have weakened In their
allegiance to the National League. Pull
liam, the youthful president of the National
League, who is in Cincinnati, made this
statement Saturday:
Il am heartily in favor of worlds series
between the New York Nationals and Bos-
ton Americans in the spring, and think
that 1t will be played. There is much pub
lie interest in this matter and the question
of supremacy should be settled as soon as
possible"
Why didn't Pulliam assume this attitude
last fall? He has probably not read the
declaration of the president of the Boston
Americans. There will be no spring series
for the worlds championship, but the
American League champions, whoever they
may be, will be toeing the mark next Oc-
tober, which is the proper time to play such
important games.

Boston, Is so strong but that 1t can make

But If went after pitcher and a short

he is a hard worker. Three games a week

BOTH DETERMINED TO FIGHT.
Little Prospect Of Early Peace Between
Japan and Russia.

Japan has made no overtures for peace
to Russia. directly or indirectly. through
the United States or any other power; she
contemplates no such action. and now that
Port Arthur has fallen. proposes to press
the war in the north all the more vigorous
ly by reinforcing the Japanese armies at
Liaoyang with the greater part Of the
troops who have been besieging Port Ar
thur. This, in brief. represents the views
of Mr.. Kogoro Takahira, the Japanese min
lister, who has recently resumed charge of
the legation at Washington after a long
illness at New York; j.
''The fall of Port Arthur said the min
lister, sis but a step in the war which Japan
is waging for principle. Certainly 1t is
an important step, but nothing could be
further from the truth than the assumption
that because Japan has captured a strong
hold, the fall of which has long been exc
pected, the Japanese government will now
make overtures for peace. Japan 10 too
busy fighting. We are as much In earnest
today as we were at.the outset of the war.
We have made no overtures for peace,
either directly or indirectly. nor have the
powers approached us with any idea of in
tervention." IL
At the Russian embassy 1t was reiterated
that Russia would fight all the harder, in
view of the temporary loss OF Port Arthur.

GARDNER'S BACKDOWN.
Jimmy Probably Afraid Of Cans Stiff
Jabs.

A special from San Francisco says: Is
Jimmy Gardner just wee bit timid about
exchanging upper jabs with the mahogany
ring specialist Joseph Cans? If he Is not,
1t must be said that circumstances have
conspired to place him in a rather unfavor-
able light in the particular connection re-
ferred to.
Some time ago Cans and Gardner were
all signed up, and the negro came on to
San Francisco and began training.
Gardner sent word that he would be along
Just as soon as he disposed of Martin Ca
MOLE There was wrangle Of some kind
and an unsatisfactory ending to the Canole-
Gardner bout and Jimmy refused to keep
his contract with Cans and the San Fran
cisco A. C. Some said 1t was chagrin at
not being able to make a clean-cut finish
of Candle Others described 1t as a plain,
everyday case of cold feet.
Recently the question of matching Card
ner and Cans came up again. The San
Francisco club wanted the event for jan
uary card. George Gardner. the light
heavyweight acted for his brother and sent
quite a number of kilograms to Match
maker Greggains, giving his ideas as to
the weight to be fought at and the way In
which the prize money should be divided
HEREFORD manager of Cans, wired an ac.
ceptance of the terms proposed, and then
came George Gardner's final telegram, re-
QueSting transportation for two and asking
for information in regard to the date.
GreggainS attended to all the details and
gave out the news that Jimmy Gardner and
Joe Cans were to battle at 1876 pounds,
weight to he made at O'Clock in the even
ing. Everything seemed to be lovely and
the goose dangled at the proper altitude
when rush message came sizzling through
from Denver. 1t was from Jimmy Card
ner to Alex Greggafns and 1t read:
II have signed to box two men here"
Greggains knew what 1t meant. for he
teiephoned the newspaper offices that the
Gans-Gardner match was off.

ROW OVER cRoKER's HORSES.
Ex-Tammany Chief May Race Exclu-
sively in ireland.


A special from London says that in an
interview published in Sporting Life Satur-
day Mr. Croker declares that he has not the
least idea of the reason for the action Of
the Jockey Club in refusing to permit the
training of his horses on Newmarket Heath.
He is not aware Of anything that he has
done to Justify such action. He intends to
send his horses now at Newmarket to
Vantage and continue their training there.
He has forty horses now In Ireland at the
Curragh. He does not know what course
the Irish Jockey Club will follow, but he
did not hesitate to say that he prefers
racing in Ireland to England or America.
He has received the greatest consideration
in ireland and If allowed. he will continue
to race and live there. He has erected
thirty boxes for brood mares at Glencairn,
near Dublin.
Speculation at the clubs over the Jockey
Clubs action continues, but nothing definite
can be learned. The mystifcation Is In
creased by the fact that the entries of Mr..
Cookers horses at Newmarket were ac-
cepted quite recently without any objection.
Brewer is not his trainer, Mr.. Croker said,
but the Newmarket man recently asked
him for some of his stable to train. and SO
Mr. Croker sent him three horses.
Mr.. Croker said that he had received no
communication from the Jockey Club, put
had written to 1t asking 1t to tell him the
cause of its action.

"that steps be taken to promote the
younger officers to command the flag ranks.
thereby prolonging their tenure Of respon-
sible commands and insuring in the highest
ranks officers who have had experience IN
other than subordinate duties" To bring
this about the board recommends that all
captains on reaching the age or Sixty shaii
be placed on the reserve list, and that this
age limit shall be decreased to nifty years;
that all present captains and commanders
