Mr.. Williams Oenounce8 Government
by S%coIding.
Washington, May 23.-Government
by scolding was denounced by Repre-.
sentative Williams of Mississippi, the
minority leader of the house, who was
heard by the house committee on for
eign affairs on his resolution for In
formation and an investigation re-
garding the consequences of irregu-
larities by United States consuls in
the Orient. The resolution was based
on information contained in the PIERCE
report. Mr.. Williams was heard be-
hind closed doors. The committee took
no action on the resolution.
Mr.. Williams called attention to
what he said was the constant ten
dency on the part Of the administra-
ton to "scold." This tendency was
apparent in all departments and the
PIERCE report was a shining example.
This report had not, in his opinion,
been followed up with the required
dismissals and possible prosecutions.

Special to Tho Journal.

Special to Tne Journal.
Milwaukee, Wis, Feb. 10. II The
American association clubs paid more
money out to managers last season than
any other minor baseball league in the
country. Few of the managers were
drawing less than $4,000 season, while
couple Of them made even more than
that. Joe Cantillon Of the Milwaukee
club was credited with getting $4,000
a year, with bonus of $500 and a
percentage on the sale of players, 50
that his salary was more than $4,000.
Mike Kelley Of the st. Paul club was
drawing around $4,000, with an inter
est in certain privileges, SO that his
salary was nearer $4,000 than $4,000.
Arthur Irwin, at Kansas City, was sim
ply under orders from George Tebeau,
but drew fairly good salary. Billy
Clymer got far in excess Of what he re-
ceived at Louisville as manager, the
Columbus club paying him around the
$4,000 mark. with Minneapolis and
Toledo it was a little different, as
w. H. Watkins and J. E. Grillo were
owners Of the clubs and at the same
time acted as managers, altho in the
early part of the season Mickey Finn
was managing the Toledo bunch.
At Indianapolis, Ed Barrows was
managing the boosters at salary of
$4,000, and the indianapolis club, it is
understood, paid Edward $500 to re,
lease them from their contract for19O6
SO that the salary Of manager for 1906
cost the Indianapolis club $500. w. H
Watkins will be back at Indianapolis
this season and manage the club and
save considerable that way. Toledo
will have an expensive manager in Bill
Clark, as the ex-New York catcher viii

team for less than $4,000. George TIE
beau will continue to hold forth al
Louisville, but he has not yet selected
a. manager for his club at Kansas City
If he gets a good one he will be obliged
to pay around the $4,000 mark, thu
| same as the rest Of the owners.

IOWA STATE LEAGUE
READY .I||.| FOR A.. BUSINESS
Managers Will Have to Stick
Close to the Salary
Limit.

Special to The Journal.
1Marshalltown, Iowa, Feb. l0.-The
Iowa State League Of Baseball clubs
has received the forfeit money from all
the members, which insures another sea-
son for the league. Each Of the eight
clubs posted 5000 with President Peck
ham Of this city at the annual meeting.
It was decided that 5000 should be the
fine for exceeding the salary limit Of
81, 100 per month for players. The
rivalry heretofore has caused some
cities to pay enormous salaries, with the
result that bankruptcy Of the league
was threatened, the attendance not
warranting the outlay.
Must Stay in Place. w.
With the salary limit held down to
the ST, 100 mark, it is believed that the
contests between the teams will be
closer, and while the quality Of the ball
playing may be. not quite SO high an
average, more interest will be taken in
the game than where one or two teams
outclass their competitors. Several
matters were disposed Of at the meeting,
including the decision to fine umpires
$50 for failure to appear and umpire
games when ordered to do so. The pay
Of scorers was also advanced to 81 per
game.
A draft Of schedule was submitted,
but was not adopted, pending some
changes. Two. schedules will be made

Chicago, Feb. 10.-Chicago's chances
Of opening the intercollegiate indoor
track season with a victory over the
University of Illinois team at Urbana
next Friday night have met with set
back in the shape. Of E'cons' handed
out to the maroon athletes by the Mid
way deans. <
Eckersall, Lightbody and Wilkins,
three of the strongest maroon point
winners, are the most prominent Of
those who have incurred the wrath of
the professors, and it is not likely that
any one of the trio will appear in the
Illini meet.
Lightbody's loss is the worst blow
the maroons have met with this season.
He has been ineligible since last quar-
ter, but was expected to clear up his
deficiencies in time to compete in all
the winter meets. The announcement
that he has not regained his standing
means that the Illinois long distance
men will probably have their own way
in the mile and half-mile, as Lightbody
was the only reliable entry for these
events.
Eckersall's absence Is not expected
to take first place in the dashaway
from Chicago. as Merritt, the freshman
Splinter, is depended upon to take the
honors in this event. In the freshman
meet with Lewis Institute last Satur-
day he equaled the worlds record Of
0:05 rs in the tifty-yard dash. In case
Wilkins does not succeed in removing
his "con'' before Friday, the >maroons
may have no one who is able to cope
with Norris, the Illinois vaulter.
