The local OHIO and Pennsylvania
league situation Is clearing up nicely
and as the season approaches the To-
cal managers ERE confident that they
win have team that at all times
Will be in good position In the leag-
ue race,
During the past week the manage
ment has signed Frank Burns Of At
tlesboro, Pa, and G. F.. Balleinger,
who played last season with the
Gallon team in the Erie league.
Burns is reputed to be fast second
1aseman and pretty handy with the
stick. Balllnger is another youngster
who hits the ball on the nose and
fields exceptionally well at either
second or short. Both men will be
given thorough try out. Ballinger
Is at present working as an operator

"a letter from the president of the
Sioux City. Ia. team In the Western
league received by the management
today makes 1t very doubtful wheth-
er Hugh Tate, the crack outfielder
secured by Manager Drumm will be
able to, play here. Sioux City claims
that 1t had Tate under reserve while
Tate before signing a Marion con-
tract claimed that he was at liberty.
The question will be taken up and
II possible the local officials will
either buy Tate's release or trade
off several players for him.
The secretary of the team has
hooked number Of games for the
preseason trip Of the team. The
Marion aggregation will report here
either on April . or 10. On the 12 or
= IL the team will play at Toledo, try
Ing conclusions with American As
sociation team. On April ID, is 16
the boys will play at Steubenville. 1t
is possible that one or two Of the
games will be transferred to Zanes
VILE.
Manager Ford has received a num-
ber Of letters from the two players
signed and all report that they are
III the best possible condition and are
anxious for tie season to open. Ev-
cry man on the list seems to be we'll
pleased with the bunch selected and
ccnfdent that there will be some
thing doing when the reputed strong
est team in the league buck up
against the local outfit
An announcement is expected daily
that the work on the grounds will
BE- commenced and within a short
time Marion will have a first class
park and a crack team.
1t is probable that one half of the
team will be taken on the trip by
Manager Drumm and the remainder
will remain here and play exhibition
games. In this manner all will re-
ceive good trials and the makeup of
the team for the opening of the sea-
son can be more easily determined
upon.
Manager Drumm Is trying to pull
off several good trades and the an
nouncement that several good men
have been added to the list may be
expected within tho next few ays.
The summer weather OF the past
few days has filed the air with base
ball and baseball dope and much In
terest is being taken in the team
that will represent Marion this year.

fessor answered that ordinary mental
exercise was sufficient to secure a

asked if he might test the mental ca

him to listen to and remember sew

ator smoot-Longwort Speaks In
the House.
Washington, Jan. %. Senator
Sutherland of Utah occupied the
first three hours of the session deliv-
ering his first speech in the senate. 1t
was in behalf of The right of Reed
Smoot of his own state to a seat in
the senate.
The senate passed the compromise
resolution authorizing committee on
military affairs to investigate the facts
of the affray at Brownsville on the
nights of Aug. 10 and IA last, without
questioning the legality or justice of
any act OF the president in relation
TO or connected with that affray This
action came after the subject had been
under consideration almost daily since
the first day of the present session of
congress, and every phase of the ques-
tion had been discussed on all sides.
Before the adoption of the resolution
several substitute measures were
voted down. One by Senator Mallory,
declaring that the president had au-
thority for his course and acted justly,
was tabled by vote of 43 to %. An
other by Senator McCumber simply
providing for an investigation without
reference to the president in any man
ner, was tabled by viva voce vote.
A third by Senator Culberson, simply
indorsing the presidents action and
providing for no investigation, was
tabled by rollcall vote of 46 to 10.
Mr.. Longworth of Ohio offered an
amendment to the diplomatic and con-
sular appropriation bill in the house,
appropriating $500,000 for the acquisi-
tion of proper sites and buildings in
foreign capitals to be used by the en-
bassies and legations of the United
States. Although the amendment was
ruled out of order, it gave Mr.. Long
worth an opportunity to emphasize
his position on the subject. He said
there was not nation on earth ap-
proaching our wealth and power that
does not pay to it's diplomats and en-
voys from five to six times what we do
to ours.

In recalling incidents connected with

course of the proceedings it developed
that the ballots in an important pre-
cinct had not been sealed after the
final count, thereby being exposed to
fraudulent practices The chairman
of the investigating committee closely
questioned the election Judge as to
why the prescribed duty Of carefully
securing the ballots had been neglected.
