ANOTHER FAIRY TALE.
National League Circuit Changed for
Next Season.

Sam Crane of theNeW York Journal fires
out the following. which comes under the
head of important if true:
There is every reason to believe that the
National League circuit will be changed
next year. The consolidation of the Ma
tional and American leagues into one big
twelve-club organization. which has been
advocated strongly by the Robisons.
owners of the ST Louis Cardinals. will not
take place There is no chance of that
dangerous plan being put through. 1t was
only proposed by the Robsons as a per-
sonal matter to pull them out Of their diff
ficulties.
The American League is prosperous in
every city of Its circuit, with the possible
exception of st. Louis. where both clubs
have not been as financially successful as
they would like. The Boston National
League club is not money maker. either,
neither is Brooklyn. The latter city has
not shown that it can support a champion
ship club. much less a tail-ender.
The National League consequently. with
three virtual dead ones on it's hands. has
been skirmishing to promote a plan where
by the circuit can be made an all-around
paying one.
The Robisons are said to be willing and
their twelve-club league scheme has gone
by the board. This will leave the field
clear for the St. Louis Browns. and they
could make a barrel of money in st. Louis
with only one club to represent the city.
whereas now, the interest being divided
neither club get out whole
The plan is now for the RObiSonS to trans
fer the club and players to Columbus. Ohio,
where they, too. would have clear field in
the National League. The Columbus club
too. is said to have cleared in the neighbor-
hood of $t0OtO this year in the American
Assocat ton. and the city is ripe for big
league base ball.
The Boston or Brooklyn club could be
transferred to Providence to good advan-
tage, and if it was found advantageous
Buffalo could be taken in If both the Bos-
ton Nationals and the Brooklyns wanted to
make the change of base.
The old Boston triumvirs-Soden, Conant
and Biilings-want to quit the game. They
the Boston club to Mr. Dunn. who says
fall This is doubtful. however. but he
could transfer the team to Providence. and
with the Sunday games at Rock Point
would be in the way to make money.
Possibly. too. President Ebhetts of the
Brooklyn club would lie willing to pull up
sticks in Brooklyn and move to Buffalo.
1t is a scheme that would require consid-
cradle money to perfect but ii would be
peach if it could ke. Tie plan is being
considered all right, and it is rumored that
President Brush's departure for Europe
last Friday was for the purpose of talking
the new deal over.

Probably General Summers would
come as near being neutral candidate

though his afiiliation with the Mitchell
wing In later years might enlist some
oppo~iticn from the other camp. just
how determined this would be, II II

As veteran Of the civil war, the war
with Spain and the part he played In
quelling the Filipino insurrection, Gen.

himself strong following among mem'
hers of the G. A. r. and thu Spanish war
veterans. lie would probably, too, draw
many votes from local business men,
with whom he was associated before
entering the public service.
This latest candidate has figured In
public life in Oregon for many years.
He was q member Of the legislature

tions were striving for supremacy. De.
fore his election he was nominated joint
ly by the delegates OF both factions In
