ing a new title for the Washington Base
Ball Club, and as a result nearly four

committee will certainly have varied as
sortment of names from which to select
a title.
Birmingham (Ala.) fan suggests that
the Washingtons be called the "Roose-
yeltians" and the News of that city asserts:
There is thing certain, if the club
wins ball games as easily as Teddy did

for the other seven teams
Catcher Hayden is the latest man to get
into the Washington clubs Enclosure, his
contract coming to President Noyes by this
mornings mail. With the legal document
was a nice letter from Hayden saying
that he was pleased to be able to wear
a Washington uniform, and that he would
put forward his best efforts to help Manager
Stahl land a winner. Hayden Is young,

ton issued by Judge Kayanagh against
picketing of tailoring establishments and
factories by striking garment workers has
been SO modified that 1t was resumed legal

Pop Arson the other day to a Chicago re-

I'VE were playing the Detroit team at

to 1 In the first half of the ninth. Then a
bunch of errors filled the bases and brought
Dan Brouthers to bat, with no one out.
Dan was hitting at about 500 clij just
then. and had made so many home runs
that one was looked for in every emergency.
AS Dan came to the plate said to Clark
son-he was always more effective after

THE crowd hooted my remark but John
put one straight across and Dan, expecting
a curve, missed 1t mile. He was sure the
next would be a curve, but it wasn't, and
he missed it just as far as he had the first
one. Before he could get back on his toes
Clarkson whipped the third curveless one

big Dan struck out-the first time, he said,
any pitcher had ever struck him out on

Great pitching, john, 1 said. as we

RAILWAY FRANCHISES STAND.
Important Decision Handed Down at
Columbus Yesterday.

The Ohio supreme court at Columbus,
Ohio. handed down decision yesterday
sustaining the validity of the franchises
under which the Cincinnati Street Railway
Company is operating. This brings to an
end. in favor of the railway company. the

The franchises rest upon the so-called
Rogers ffty-year franchise act, passed
eight years ago and repealed by the next
legislature.
The court In its decision today reverses
the decision of the lower courts against the
railway company and dismissed the petit
ton.
The litigation is of Importance in railway
circles and as 1t is not probable that q fed
eral question be raised. this decision
may be regarded final. AS the decision
was announced from the bench, no dissent

when the San Jose called at Corinto. the
facts about the eruption were learned. 1t
was also learned that the destruction caused
by the volcanoes outburst, at first believed
by the Nicaraguans to have been extensive.
