PITTSBURG NOW
HAS AZ PLAYERS

PITTSBURG. October o. - President
Dreyfuss, Of the Pittsburg Base Ball Club,
now has forty-two players under reserve
and expects to get several more before
long. Who the three latest players are
whom Dreyfuss has secured or how he Sc
cured them is not known, because until
the official announcement Is made Of their
retention he will not intimate who they
are or from where they were secured.
The local magnate's selection Of Pitcher
Brady Of the Little Rock team to wear a
Pirate uniform is not at all pleasing to the
owners OF the Little Rock club. according
to a letter the Pittsburg president received
from President Michael Finn OF the Little
Rock team. Finn wants to know why Drey-
fuss did not select Breitenstein, but the
Pittsburg magnate said he wants men
whose best days of playing are yet TO
come.
There are fifteen pitchers, five catchers,
ten infielders and twelve outfielders on the
list today.
More will be added" said President
Dreyfuss today.
I'VE are not yet through with drafting
men. But I assure you that we will not
have all Of them on the list of next March.
Many Of them will be disposed Of long be-
fore that time"

PITCHER TOWNSEND
SOLD TO COLUMBUS.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, October 23.-The
first Of the weeding-out process to be insti-
tuted by the Cleveland club prior to the
opening Of the 1907 season came about Sat
urday. when the local magnates sold
Pitcher Jack Townsend to the Columbus
club of the American Association. 1t was
an outright sale, Cleveland having no string
on him. In fact, the fans are glad that
such is the case, for the local rooters placed
no reliance whatever in the pitching ability
Of the Delaware PEACH who had not
been consistently effective since his first
year in big league base ball. In conse-
quence Of his having done good work occa-
sionally for Washington, Manager Lajoie
had an idea that with team like the Maps
behind him he could be whipped into win
ming form.
While such might have been the case
had Townsend taken care of himself, the
local fans did not have the chance to de-
termine as he was really the only member
Of the team who failed to live up to the
training regulations of the club AS a re-
suit he was suspended. Later this sus-
pension was lifted, and, while he pitched
good games, neither manager, magnates nor
fans wanted to see him retained. AS Mag
nate Brice of Columbus enjoys a reputation
second only to Connie Mack as a tanner
of bad actors, he hopes to get good work
out of the Delaware man.

Mob Of Negroes Threatens Philadel-

Under most unusual conditions THE
Clansman'' was produced at the Walnut
Street Theater in Philadelphia last night.
The colored clergy of the city had made n
formal protest to Mayor Weaver against

''lynchings have been encouraged by the
play" The mayor refused to take any
action.
About a half hour before the theater
opened 9th and Walnut streets, where the
playhouse is located, were packed with coll
ored people. Director of Public Safety Nc
Kenty, who, realizing the danger, had has
tened to the scene, begged the ministers,
who seemed to have complete control of
| the crowd, to dispense the mob.
While the director was at the scene a riot
call was sent in, and five patrol wagons
brought half hundred policemen to the
theater.
The colored ministers surrounded Director
McKenty and demanded that he stop the
play The director delivered a brief speech,
asking the crowd to disperse and saying
that he would endeavor to have the play
discontinued after tonight. This seemed 10
have a soothing effect on the crowd, and 1t
slowly scattered.
Early in the evening colored man at
tempted to create a disturbance in the the

considerable difficulty in rescuing him from
the crowd in the gallery.

At the Little Rock con ference. number of transfers of presiding elders and ministers were madee by Bishop Atkins, and it is said that the outcome of the trans fers and other appointments will mean the end of the trouble over the charges against Mir. Thomas. Bishop Atkins was asked if the transfer of Mir. Thomas to the north Mississippi conference possessed any significance. and said that it did not. citing along that line the transfer of five other preachers to the same conference. Rev. J. s. Hawkins, who has been one of the principals in the proceedings against Mr Thomas. was located for unacceptabil bility, which means that he is out of the conference.
