- NO WINTER GAMES.

CHICAGO. Oct 17.-There will be no winter games between the Cali fOrnia State league and the major league clubs. This point was ruled upon by the National commission at it's meeting this afternoon, on a con tention raised by the Pacific coast league. The California league. which is an outlaw" desired to arrange' a series of games with eastern clubs between the regular baseball season.
 The practice of farming out" play CTS was also given its death blow by decision of the commission to revise the rules governing sales with options fer recall of players so as to provide that all such options in either major or minor leagues should be made by August 20 of each year and the play CTS required to report at once to the club exercising the option, with the further provision that no club could enter into any such contract with op- tions for recall more than once for the same players.

 Further reports including the final recommendations, gill probably be ready for submission to the federal government before she end of the present year. The continued produc- tiveness of Lake Erie has astonished expert authorities, considering the shallowness of the lake and the great scale of operations, especially by American fishermen.
 When the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway project was before the Cana dian parliament four years ago. it was estimated that the eastern df- vision of the new transcontinental line, that is to say. the 1,S00-m.Ie stretch rom Moncton. N. E.. 10 the City Of Winnipeg. Man. which is be- ing built by the Dominion govern men, would cost sn the neighborhood of s100,000,00 At the present time however. with the increased cost of labor and materials of all kinds, it is no exaggeration to say that the out lay will be fully $25,OOO, 900, or even one-third more than was anticipated when the project was first under taken.
 It is pointed out that labor was available three years ago at s1.5O a day, but now commands s2.5O and is very scarce att that. Railroad ties that were to be had in abundance a year ago at 90 cents each are now bringing 50 10 75 cents, while in some instances the contractors have been at their wits end to obtain sui ficient supplies at any price. Rails are dearer, food is much higher. everything in fact, that enters into the execution of this gigantic enter prise is increasing in price and is likely 10 go still higher next season.

NEW WAGON ROAD.
(Morenci Leader.l

The new wagon road to the Bacon and Langerman claims, which has been in the course of construction for the past two weeks, is now com pleted and shipments have been re- stunned to the Shannon and Douglas smelters, some of high grade ore and others of low grade, in order that the quality and character of the various ores may be tested. MT. Bacon was in Morenci several times during the week and when seen by a representa- tive of the Leader stated that condi- tions were very favorable towards opening up substantial body of sil- yer and gold ore, the showing at pres ent being most flattering. When asked for statement concerning the strike Mir. Bacon said: We are not yet in a position to give out any defi- nite information regarding the proper ty further than that things are look ing exceedingly promising to us and we firmly believe that we will succeed in opening up some very rich ore. The shipments we are now making are more in the nature of test and we cannot tell as yet the extent of our discovery. As sooe as returns have been received from the shipments we will know where we are, and upon these returns will be based our fu- ture development We are not fixed as yet to work a large crew of men, but what work we are doing is show ing up most satisfactory results which convince us that we have a gccd prop erty and one which will open the eyes of many people n the district" Mir. Bacon has purchased an interest in several claims adjoining the origi- nal strike. including those of the Campbell brothers, Telesforo Chavez, W. c. Crawford and others. Sanchez and Tellez of Newtown have also been getting in on several of these propO- siticns but as yet the claims are be- ing worked exclusively with private capital and it is not expected that the property will be turned into a stock company as the returns the owners are receiving at present is ample to push the work advantageously.
 Among the strikes reported f-c>;i. the new gold and silver field during the week is enc on the claim belong ing to Isaac Campbell and others. 4 fine lot of specimens carrying free gold in quantity and running up in the thousands to the ton were exhibited around camp and thus far the work on the discovery has shown up near Iy ton of very rich ore and the vein still continues in good form Other finds have been made in the same vicinity of lesser values, all of which have greatly stimulated the interest manifested in the new district.

THEATER IN MERIDEN
 FOR SYLVESTER Z. POLL Plans in Works for Him to Manage New Play
 house There. PAID VISIT TO CITY With Architect Yesterday and Preliminary Ideas
 Are Advanced.
PAID VISIT TO CITY

If the plans which are now in the preliminary stages develop in accord ance with the present expectations of
 the parties, the city of Meriden will soon have a lirst-class theater to re-
 place the one which was burned and the new theater will be under the man. agement of Sylvester z. Poli the the atrical man of this city. MT. Poll, ac- Icompanied by Architect Albert r, Vest
 over, of Philadelphia and MT Sagal, of the Poli staff, went to Meriden yes terday afternoon in compliance with an invitation of the Meriden board of
 trade, and the theater project was gone into at the meeting.
 The theater people were met in Mer- iden by ex-Goyernor Abiram Chamber lain, Mr. Tredennick, the president of
 the Meriden board of trade; Mayor
 Reilly c. w. Cahill and c. A. Learned.
 It was stated at Mr. Polfs office in
 this city last evening that MT. Pon had
 been asked to become interested in the
 theater with number of Merideh peo- pie who are willing to put up capital for the realization of the new theater idea. Those interested turned to Mir. Poli as a practical and successful the atrical man, to take an interest in the theater and act as the manager.
 The new theater will not be in the Poli vaudeville circuit but will be a
 theatcr for frst-class legitimate drama and the best of plays will be furnished. | It will be conducted on plan similar
 to the Poli theater in Waterbury, which is not a vaudeville house. MT. Poll will become financially interested in the thcater as well as manager of 1t, and | it is said that $S2,00O has already been pledged in Merlden,
 While a site was considered yester- day afternoon, no definite arrangement has been arrived at in that regard, and of course the plans have not yet been commenced.
 Architect Albert E. Westover, who accompanied MT. Poll to Meriden yes terday, designs theaters for the Poll and Keith circuits He did not design the new Poli theater in this city, but
 was architect of the new theater which is being built in Scranton.
 MT Poli plans to give Meriden a high class of attractions which his po- sition in the theatrical world will en- able him to secure.

HARD BLOW Al
 HARTMAN DEALS Government t Lawyers Rec ommed Annulment of U.
 P'S Contracts. COMPETITION STOPPED Profits of Combin e Are Used to Purchase Eastern
 Lines.
COMPETITION STOPPED

New York, May 15,--That the attor- ney general of the United States takes action to annul the contract between the Union Pacific and Rock Island rail- roads for the control of the Chicago and Alton system is recommended in the report of Frank B. Kellogg and Charles Severance, the governments lawyers in the recent Hartman inVes- tigation. A portion of the report was m5 de public here this afternoon.
 It is also urged that the attorney gen. eral institute proceedings to cause the termination of the agreements between the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific company and the plans for acquiring control of the Illinois Central and San Pedro roads. All these contracts, the lawyers report, were in violation of the Sherman antitrust act,
 After reviewing the testimony taken at the investigation, the report declares that railroad competition has been sup pressed in an area equal to one-third of the United States
 There should be new and effective laws, continues the report, to prevent imitation of securities. The assertion is made that the profits of the great rail- roads of the far west are being used to buy stocks and control systems in the east instead of building more roads for the development of the west. In consequence of the lawyers report.
 the stock market declined with much violence shortly after midday, Union Pacific and Southern Pacific naturally experienced the worst losses, The for mer sold off in a few minutes from l46
 3-4 to l42 3-4. Southern Pacific fell a point but grew steady with large buy ! ing. Other Issues declined in sympa- 1 thy.
 1 At the office of the Union Pacific it
 was said that an unqualified denial had been obtained from Washington re- garding the reported publication of the commissions findings. Nothing abou. a report of the two lawyers was known there
 But for several weeks officers of the Union Pacific have expected that action would be brought by the government to determine whether or not the Southern Pacific the Illinois Central and other subsidiary companies were controlled contrary to the law Tn well informed quarters the opinion is held that some means will be devised to offset an un- favorable decision. The general belief is that a holding company will if nec- essarY be formed to take over the stock held by the Union Pacihc's treas ury,

Only Recommendation of Commission
 snEs Mnahlngton Stntement

Washington, May 15.-The recommen- dations of Mir. Kellogg and MT. Sever auce in regard to the Hartman rail- roads have not been accepted and con- Armed by the Interstate Commerce commission, SO that they stand at pres ont merely as recommendations to the commission. and not as the report of the commission itself The members of the commission conferred for an hour this afternoon over the report from New York that the recommendn- tions of the attorney had been made public, and then authorized the follow ing statement;
 "The commission has not prepared a report in the so-called Hartman case, nor has it yet decided any of the ques- tions involved in the inquiry. The whole matter is still under considera- ticn, and some phases of it are being further investigated. Ii may be that the briefs or memoranda submitted by counsel have become known in some quarters, and the mistaken inference drawn therefrom that the commission has agreed upon a report
