Betting on Base Ball Games
to Be Stopped.
LEADS TO SCANDALS
HERMANN AROUSED BY TAYLOR
INCIDENT IN PITTsBURG.
New York Bowlers Want to Govern

Base Ball Notes.

A special from Cincinnati says that at
the next meeting of the National League
drastic measures will be adopted for the
enforcing of the laws on the National
League books which relate to betting on
base ball games in parks in which such
contests are played. The recent develop
ments regarding betting in Pittsburg, as
brought out by some of the gamblers of the
smoky city in their efforts to shield Jack
Taylor in the yelled charges that have
been made against him and his alleged con-
nection with these gamblers, show conclu-
svely that the best interests of the national
game demand that this open betting be
stopped. In Pittsburg and Boston the pub
lie has no trouble making any kind Of bets
on games, and this fact reflects upon the
integrity of the contest conducted in those
cities. When asked whether gambling could
be stopped at ball games President Herr
mann of the local club said: 'It certainly
ought to be stopped for the good of the
game. There is law on the National
League books against betting in parks con-
trolled by the members of the organization
and steps should be taken before another
season is opened to fully enforce the law"
Further than this Mr.. Hermann declined
to speak on the subject at this time, but
there is no doubt that he will agitate the
question at the coming league meeting,
with the result that open betting will be
effectively squelched in the parks of the
National League.

BOWLERS' DEMANDS,
New Yorkers Want to Control Ameri-
can Bowling Congress.

Bowlers from all sections of Greater New
York swarmed in the corridors of the Vic
toria Hotel, New York, yesterday. The
New York Bowling Association and the
newly formed Eastern Alley Owners Asso-
citation held meetings
At the former the delegates took up more
than three hours in discussing whether the
local organization should or should not
make overtures of peace to the American
bowling congress.
1t was finally decided to make application
for membership to the American bowling
congress, with demand that the American
bowling congress amend it's constitution
and bylaws to include a provision that the
New York Bowling Association sis and
shall be at all times recognized as the con-
trolling authority on all questions arising
respecting the game of tenpins or the con-
troll and management of tournaments
within it's jurisdiction
This resolution will at once be forwarded
to Samuel Karpff, secretary of the Ameri-
can bowling congress- and nothing further
toward bringing the east and west together
can be done by New York bowlers
1t is now up to the men al present in con-
troll of the old organization to accede to the
demands made by the New York Bowling
Association if there is to be united ma
tional body.

Fitz more than mill with OBrien.

tinued Edmonston, I'VE will insist that a
large forfeit, say 5000, is posted This

go on at the last moment. As to meeting
OBrien in Philadelphia for six rounds, the
idea suits Bob to a nicely But what is
the use of trying to bother about such a
mill when the police won't stand for it.
OBrien knows this too. Fitz will fight
o. rien twenty rounds at San francisco or
fifteen rounds at Baltimore if the authori-
ties there will not interfere, say within
four months time, or about the later part
of May. l may go to Philadelphia and
see O'Brien If he shows an inclination in
the meantime to talk business. You may
state also that Fitz will make 10S pounds

that quarter. But O'Brien Is not sincere

NEW ORLEANS RACES.
Heavy Track Gave Long-Priced Horses
q Chance,

The sensation of the racing at the New
Orleans track yesterday afternoon was
the victory of Lord French in the third
race, in which he was backed from 100 to
to go to 1. The majority of the crowd
was OF the opinion that Lord French fin
ished second and that Nose Goldblatts
Fruit had won by a head.
The six-furlong handicap resulted in
one of the worst upsets of the meeting.
Trapper. the odds-on choice, was off in
good position. but dropped out Of the race
in hurry and failed to show his usual
speed. In the early stages of the race he
was outrun by everything, with the ex-
ception of the 100 to / shot, Algetha.
Under the punishment administered by
Phillips, Trapper managed to get going
managed to finish third. The betting in
the ring indicated that nothing was do
ing. Trapper opened up at to 10, and
then drifted to even money, and under
the weight of public money was backed
to odds on again. A few books took all
kinds of liberties with Trapper. Matador
won the race in a gallop from st. Tam
many. The stewards are investigating
the running of Trapper.
The track was soft and sticky after the
rain last night, and favorite players had
a hard row to travel. The best two-year-
old of the meeting was sprung in the
fifth event. Jim McGinnis, who was prac-
tically left at the post, managed to get

Bill Douglass. the catcher who refused
to sign with the Phillies last season. has
received an offer to manage a Western
League team next season. He may accept
the proposition.
Pat. Donovan has been advised to settle
his differences with the Robisons person
ally or to take the matter of his alleged
salary claim of about 81 600 into the courts
The national commission cannot handle the
case.
Ban Johnson has taken the proper stand
in refusing to sanction the trade of Pitcher
Winter of Boston for Pitcher Hughes of
Washington. says the Philadelphia Tele-
graph. 1t would hardly be good way to
equalize the playing strength of the Amer
lean League teams by permitting any such
trades like that to be made.

Hereafter minor league players will not be
able to sign contracts that will exempt
them from draft. This will work havoc
with some New England League players.
Connaughton. Pulsifer and Noblitt were ex
empt from draft last season. This year
such a thing will not be allowed to go.
There are other ways, however, OF getting
around this matter.
President Frank De Haas Robson of the
St. Louis Nationals, who is a resident of
Cleveland. is of the opinion that Lajoie will
make a success of managing the Cleveland
team next season. 1.-THE fact that he is the
greatest player in the business proves that
he is man of brains. and as such he will
be successful as manager" declares Mr..
Robson.
The claim is made that the two major
league grounds in Chicago are nine miles
apart A little different in Boston, where
they are on opposite sides of a railroad, in
ST. Louis. where they are but two blocks
distant, and in New York, where you walk
past the National League grounds to go to
the L ON your return from the American
League games. In Philadelphia the grounds
Of the two leagues are far apart and the
National has all the better of it, so far as
location is concerned.

To Reimburse Mr.. Leach.

Secretary Shaw today sent letters to the
chairmen of the House and Senate COM
mittees on appropriations recommending
that Thomas A. Leach, superintendent of
the mint at San Francisco Cal, be reim-
bursed in the sum of SIS, co., which amount
was stolen from the vaults of the mint two
or three years ago. Mr.. Leach restored
the money to the Treasury Department
himself.
The secretary asks for the appropriation
to reimburse Mr.. Leach on the ground that
it was through no fault of his that the
money was stolen. The subtreasury at San
Francisco at that time was inadequately
supplied with vaults, and the money stoieii
should have been kept in the subtreasury.
The vaults of the mint at the time were be-
ing used by the treasury officials.
There have been numerous precedents To
justify such an appropriation. The Post
Office Department always reimburses posi-
masters who We're compelled to make good
funds secured by burglars. when the bur
elaries were committed through no fault of
the officials. .

enjoyed a delectable feast and filled the
room with the aromatic fumes of tobacco.

PENN's SCHEDULE.
Meet Georgetown Here Early in
April.

The University of Pennsylvania base ball
schedule for this spring was announced
last night. 1t contains twenty-nine con-
tests. Three games, will be played with
Georgetown University, two at Georgetown
on the southern trip, April and 10. and
one in Philadelphia, June s. Games have
been scheduled with Andover and Exeter,
both to be played on the home grounds of
the two schools. This is an innovation in
PENIS usual schedule.
The southern trip, which usually is taken
at the start of the season, will not be
taken this year until after three practice
games have been played on Franklin Field.
This will put the Quakers in much better
shape for the series of hard games usually
encountered on the southern trip.
Two games each are scheduled with Yale,
Harvard, Princeton, Brown, Cornell and
Columbia, and one each with Lafayette,
Exeter, Andover, Bucknell, Trinity, Will
liams and the All-Academic team of Phil
adelphia.
