Ebbetts' Hasty Trip to Baltimore
Settled Matters.
COMPROMISED SALARY.
Will Not Receive Former Wages
of $4,000 Yearly.
Must Be Content With a Paltry
Sc, 900.

Brooklyn, N. Y, March est was
stated that as a,result of the trip which
President Ebbetts made to Baltimore,
Edward Hanlon will once again manage
the Brooklyn Baseball club, and every
thing is quiet along the Potomac as
far as the club is concerned. Just what
agreement Messrs. Hanlon and Ebbetts
reached is only matter of conjecture
but it is assumed that there was a
compromise, for it is known that Han
Ion will not receive his former salary
of $500, nor will he be obliged to
struggle along on the $4,000 which was
first offered.
President Ebbetts left Brooklyn with
the players who were going to the
southern training quarters at Columbia.
He went as far as Baltimore, where he
had an interview with Hanlon, and
then returned to Brooklyn on a night
train The interview must have been
both brief and satisfactory, as Mr..
Ebbetts did not Inger long on the way.
lie was back in Brooklyn yesterday,
ana this afternoon attended a meeting
OF the stockholders of the club, held in
Jersey City. Just what was done at
this meeting was not stated but it is
understood that a statement will be
given the public within a day or two.
All the men who started for Column
bla, S. c., yesterday are reported in the
best OF health and condition, and Man
ager Hanlon is certain that they will
be able to give a good account of them
selves in the practice games, which be-
gin with Detroit Saturday.

RAID ON AMERICAN LEAGUE
Planned at Secret Meeting of Minor
League NIagnates in Dixie


Atlanta, Ca. March 23.-Because
Ban Johnson refused to come to the
terms of draft demanded by them, a
coterie of minor league magnates de-
clare they will raid the American
league, take fifty of its star players
and certainly cripple the organization
by draft the coming season.
This information leaked out today
after a. secret session at the Aragon
hotel, in which Tip O'Neil, president
of the Western league; Howard Crit
fifth, president of the Jersey City East
ern league team, and George StallingS
of the Buffalo team, who was holding
the proxies of Providence and Mon
treal of the Eastern league, partici-
pated. O'Neil and Griffith have just
returned from the west. where they
lined up the Pacific Coast league ana
the American association in behalf of
the scheme. Their object In coming
to Atlanta is to secure five of the
Southern league teams to join the raid
With five teams from each OF the
five leading minor leagues working to-
gether it is proposed to wage war on

nous salaries to fifty of the best men

raid succeeds the stars will be divided
equally among the twenty-five teams,
giving each two men of national repu-
tation, who will undoubtedly, If this
scheme succeeds, prove great drawing
cards for the minors. The National
Association of Minor League clubs IS
not officially taking part in the war
game, neither is the National league.

Col. N. w FIaisig. the Oldest Drum
ner in the World. Visits ConcOrdia.

Concordia, Kan, March 23.-Con-
cordia had the honor today of enter
tanning a gentleman with a history of
more than ordinary interest in the
person of Col. N W. Flaisig, repre-
senting VIM. Crowley & Sons, of Lon
don, England, and who bears the dis
tinctiOn of being the Oldest travelling
man, in point of service, in the world.
Colonel FIaisig made his first trip for
the above named firm before the most
of us were born and with the excep-
ton of four years spent in the federal
army during the civil war he has been
on the road representing them and
has spent more than half a century IN
their service, travelling all over the
world, covering in the close nefghbor-
hood of two million miles in his
travels.
During the war he was in 80 bat
ties. was wounded several times, and
as colonel of an Ohio regiment had
the unique experience of capturing, at
Franklin. Tenn, a confederate force
commanded by his brother, Col E. NJ
Flaisig, who had embraced the cause
of the south.
Colonel FIaisig, who sells needles
nothing but needIes-has circled the
globe six times. He was born in Ohio,
ran away from home to sea as boy
of tender years and finally landed in
England, where he took employmen
with the firm with which he still re-
mains He came back here when the
war broke out, and after its close re-
s11rned his old connection He has a
combined scrap book and autograph
album that is filled with clippings
relative TO his career and with auto
graphs of presidents, kings, queens,
potentates. and plain people. He is a
pleasant man to meet and to talk with
him is like sitting down and listening
to the reading of a romance.

Jack johnson VIII Adopt New Tactics
in Battle With Marvin Hart.

San Francisco, March 2S.=One
week from tonight Jack Johnson, the
colored heavyweight champion, will
box Marvin Hart, the Kentuckian,
twenty rounds in this city. There is
quite a disparity in the size of the
men. Johnson is tall with a long
reach, while Hart is chunky and solid,
a smaller edition of Tom Sharkey. It
was recently given out that Hart
would rely upon infighting to win his
battle.
johnson had something to say
about the matter today. He intends
to show the public that he can change
his tactics and prove that he is just
as much at home in rough going as
he is at long range fighting.
fThey tell me that Hart has yet to
break ground for an opponent" he
said. "WeH. if that's the case. the
spectators will see something unusual,
for I am going to make him back up
some I have been conditioning my
self for close range milling and the
Kentuckian cannot set too warm a
pace for me. I am going to bet a
little of my own money that Hart
does not stay the limit
According to all reports Johnson is
already in frst-class condition. It is
expected that Johnson viii scale in
the neighborhood of 1875 pounds on
the night of the fight

ton, and providing they are success
full in passing the final examination
Thursday they will start from Pitts
burg Friday for Norfolk. Va. to en-
ter the active service The prelimi-
nary physical examination is a severe
one, and it is necessary that a young
man be in perfect physical condition
before he can get into Uncle Sans
navy.
Thursday Lieut.. j. A. SchoIheId and
d. B. Dabney, the latter naval sur
geon, viii arrive in Pittsburg and
submit the young men who have
passed the preliminary examination
to a more rigorous test especially OF
their hearts, and those who pass the
second examination will leave with
the party Friday for Norfolk and the

Gunner's Mate Weidner is highly
elated over the success of the station
here. We have been recruiting in all
OF the larger towns in the state" said

others, and we have nowhere secured
as many recruits as we have in Pitts

qualities of the players that have re-

have been listed and so far no one has
been shown any preference but is
given a thorough tryout for the posi-

Cunningham, who played right field
last year, is out of school, and Hess,
'O4's crack pitcher, has been barred
on account of playing professional
ball last summer at Marion.
Coldwell has shown better work so

The reports showed that while the
pastors of the churches in the various

overcome and much to contend with,
they have carried on their work with
steadfastness and determination, and
as a result of their untiring industry
and fafthfulness most gratifying re-

TOPEKA HEALER IN TROUBLE.
Old COIOred Man at CoffeyviIIe After
B. II. Gardener

Coffeyville, Kan. March 23.-Wash
Guttaker, a colored man who lives a
few miles north of Coffeyvflle, went to
Independence yesterday for the pur-
pose OF filing complaint against B.
H Gardener for fraud.
According to Guttal1er's story, the
man Gardener came to his house
Wednesday and after talking to his
wife three solid hourS' convinced her
that she was in need of medicine. and
that very medicine he happened to
have right with him. The colored wo-
man did not have any money, but the
medicine man could fix that all right,
so he would just take one of those
ocws in payment. BY this time, it
seems that the old colored lady
thought she had some terrible disease
and readily gave the vender a COW in
exchange for $45 worth of patent nos
trums. Stomach bitters and kidney
cure enough was purchased to last
for years
The old coIored gentleman stated
that when he came home he at once
began to hunt for his COW. He rode
all Thursday night and finally located
his property in a pasture north of
Deering. belonging to- j. COLLIER. Mr..
Collier readily gave up the COW.
Gardener claims to be of the firm
of Gardener Bros of Topeka. The old
colored man is determined to prose-
cute the case
