Especial to News and Observer


Greensboro N c., April 25.-
Spencer Salisbury baseball team;
Grim manager of the Greensboro
team, and Brandt, secretary and treas
urer of the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. League,
recently formed, were in conference
here this morning over the situation.
These gentlemen all agree that the sud
den and ineXcuSable eiopement OF red
sullivan from his contract with Char
lotte, while temporarily demoraliZing
the Charlotte team, will not affect the
work of the others. They oil agree
that the league has escaped fortunate
ly from what would have proven q
worse fate by the radiance of Sullivan.
Representatives from Salisbury-Spen-
Ger, Greensboro and Danville will meet
with the president of the Charlotte
team p. NJ. Cave, at Charlotte tomor-
row and try to put that team on its
feet all right.
Discussing the effect of the democrat
ization of Charlotte's team, these gem
tlemeh agreed that this would not pre-
vent the opening of the season with
the other teams, and that two more
would probably be in on time. Mr..
BHandt said: 1.-THE report circulated
in some quarters that Sullivan's con-
duct would destroy the league is en-
tirely incorrect. We are going ahead,
and have players already for the open
ing games with Greensboro, Spencer
Salisbury and Danvillc teams. Should
Charlotte fail to reorganize there lis no
doubt that four teams will be III, the
effect of Charlotte's natural democrat
ization being to delay the coming in
of the fourth for perhaps a week"
Manager j. J. Grim has a letter
written by Sullivan to him as he pass
ed through in his flight to Chicago,
stating that he had Jumped the
game" because he had a better stand
off, somewhere else, and that other
members of the new organization had
treated him white" and put up their
money and he desired to apologize to
them for leaving as he did.
Grim says it is a happy radiance to
get clear of Sullivan, whom he calls
"four-flusher', whatever that is, and
never was fit to manage decent sport
with decent man." He further de-
clares that as soon as Sullivan realized
that the league was organized on q
fair basis for clean ball and that those
forming it were con to his curves
enough not to let him "sneak players
and juggle games he made up his
mind to throw up the sponge" give
the league the grand bounce" and
polly parrot" in the newspapers about
the fellows that had correctly gauged
his game and Caught him out on a
foul Captain Grim and the fans
may understand all this. but hanged
if this correspondent does.

Durham, April 25.-Tonight a citi-
ZenS' mass meeting was held at the
court house. This meeting was held
under the auspices of the ticket named
a few days ago--the Citizens ticket in
opposition to the ticket named by the

eral speakers among them being Mr..

We're discussed
On Sunday morning the present
board Of aldermen came out in card
attacking the platform of the Citizens
ticket and also attacking Mr.. Victor
S, Bryant. chairman of the platform
committee and Trainer Of the platform.
This morning Mr.. Bryant was out in a
reply covering nearly four columns.
in which he attacked the business
methods of the present board and
quoted the city clerk and others in
support of the position he had taken
in the platform. This part of the fight
is charge made by Mr.. Bryant that
the present board of aldermen used
sinking fund money for other objects
and for paying one member of the
board of aldermen $500 per annum for
being assistant street commissioners,
this he claims, being in violation of
the city charter. This part of the fight
in the city election is becoming rather
warm and is being talked a great deal.

The people are being especially

intense.

Measures Taken by Egypt to Suppress
Traffic.
The Egyptian customs administra-
ton have made some very clever hauls
Of 'hashish" during the past few days,
says the Pail Mall Gazette. At Alex
lot and 1t was valued at nearly f2,5OO.
The restrictions against "hashish" In
this country are most rigorous. Its
Indulgence Is forbidden both by the
Mohammedan religion and by law.
Formerly "hashish" was imported only
by way Of Alexandria, but owing to
the sharp outlook which was kept the
importers had to seek other means.
1t Is now landed on the coast of Tri-
poll and thence conveyed across coun-
try. This increases the difficulties Of
capture, and 30 the government In
changing Its tactics and instead Of
trying to stop the importation In en-
deavoring to prevail on the government
Of Greece to prohibit the cultivation
Of the drug in that country.
As q new commercial convention is
being drawn up between Greece and
Egypt the present is an auspicious
moment for insisting on this prohibi-
ton The Hellenic government de-
murs at having to interdict the cult
vation Of "hashish." as this Is one Of
the chief resources of the Peloponne-
sus; still as the number Of "hashihses"
or hashish smokers is increasing rap
idly In the Piraeus as well, the Greek
authorities will soon find themselves
forced to take the proposed step In the
interests of their own subjects.
''Hashish" is indulged in to an enor-
nous extent In Egypt-in Cairo eepe-
cially. There are no public dens, as
they have all been cleared out. But
many an innocent-looking private
house forms the cloak behind which
the smoking Of this demoralizlng prod
uct is carried on in peace and without
fear of interference by the police. This
is one Of the reasons why insanity has
increased to such an alarming extent
in Egypt AS far as one can see. the
only effect the campaign against
"hashish" has had, is to increase its
cost-it now stands ut 30 francs a
kilo-but that does not deter the in
veterate smokers, who abound in their
thousands. The drug has such hold.
