TROUBLE AHEAD FOR O'NEIL.
Springfield Manager Did Not Send
 in List of Players,

Bridgeport, Oct 4.-Unless there is some mistake there is going to be some trouble ahead for Manager O'Neil of Springfield. The reserve lists of the Connecticut league teams have come back to Secretary O'Rourke from Secretary Farrell of the natioal association and no Springfield play CTS appear. Secretary O'Rourka re- peatedly warned the managers to get their lists in on time. At the very last moment Manager Humphrey sent his to Secretary O'Rourke and the lat ter had to send the list to Secretary Farrell by telegraph or it would not have been in on time. The lists should be sent directly to the secre- tary of the national association. Springfield may have failed to send a list, or else the letter went astray in the mails.
 Holyoke, too, is liable to experience trouble over Pitcher Stackpole. When the lists of the minor league clubs were received by Secretary Farrell of the association he found that Pitcher Stackpole's name was not only on the reserve list of the Holyoke club, but also on the list of the Richmond club of the Virginia league Secretary Farrell sent letter to Secretary O'Rourke for inquiry and Holyoke will have to explain.

 for Thoms, 1t is said that Superin- tendent Beach is well pleased with the Thoms' administration. Although MT Beach before he took office was a strong republican. 1t is said by many that just at present the democratic mayor is good enough for him. Rumor has it that several prominent repub- licans got after the superintendent to see if there was any truth in the story that he had been saying nice things about the Thoms administra- tion. It has been stated before that Captain Harry Carter will expect a place on the safety board should MT Sewell be elected; of course the sup erintendent would not like things to shape themselves in such way.

 Pitcher of Season.

Wild Bill Donovan of Detroit stands out as the premier pitcher for the present season, the latest records showing him to have won twenty-five games and lost but four. Mordecat Brown holds first rank in the Na- tional league, where four Chicago pitchers are jumped above all others. Old Cy Young of Boston has done work as good as any man in either league, when the nature of h.s sup- port is taken into consideration. The following pitching records include games up to September 27:

There seems to be lull in the political fight. Evidently. the can didates and their friends are taking a rest preparatory to the strenuous work which they have undoubtedly mapped out for the next two days. Although there was little betting heard of to-day, there are many per sons who claim at least that they are eager to place their money. As stated before, there seems to be much more Thoms money than Sew ell's in sight. If the republicans think they are going to win they are not backing their candidate very strongly. It is said that couple of men around the center who receive commissions for placing bets have plenty of Thoms money now, al- though last week they were wager ing their coin on Sewell

and that he believes he will make a good mayor, if elected.
 John Fitzpatrick, the war horse of the local democracy, and father of Captain D. E. Fitzpatrick, who has gone over to the republican camp, says he is prepared to give Mayor Thoms and the whole ticket which he heads, the same loyal support he has always yielded to nominees of that party since he was made an elector over half century ago. MT Fitz- patrick is nearly eighty years of age, but his mind is as active as ever and the committee would make no mis- take in giving him an opportunity to be heard at one of the rallies to be held before the battle comes off.
 It comes pretty nearly showing where President Mellen stands if he made public a confidential letter sent him by Mayor Thoms. Perhaps he thought it would benefit Sewell's can- didacy if it should be made known.
 One of the things that will help to give Thoms good majority on Monday is the German vote AL though the greater part of them will undoubtedly vote for their kinsman, Christian Laun, who is on the repub- lican ticket for the board of educa- tion, nevertheless the democratic candidates will receive an almost solid German vote. If you don't be- lieve it, just do little investigating for yourself and see how the senti ment is.

The proposition to increase the pay
of senators and congressman from
$4,000 to $500 per year has not
aroused the opposition that ii was sup
posed it would if we take the press
opinion as true expression. Some
newspapers justify the raise on the
ground that it puts senators and con
gressmen above temptation, which
means that those who have found
$4,000 a year insufficient are tempted
to take money that they have no right
to take-in plain English, steal.
There are some two hundred sena-
tors and congressman in Washington
who keep establishments and entertain
ON more or less lavish scale who will
find $500, or even twice or three
times that amount, insufficient for
their needs. II the object is to put
our lawmakers above temptation 10
make them honest, why not in lieu OF
a salary build for each house and fur
nish it. allow each one TO give say two
entertainments during session, all at
the expense of the government. Thus
they would be in the swim of Washing
ton society swelldom and yet never be
tempted to de wrong.
We once knew an enthusiastic cru
sader against horse stealing TO advocate
the plan Of killing all horses TO put a
stop 10 horse stealing.
We modestly assert that If II re-
quires an increase Of salary to keep our
senators and representatives. in the
straight and narrow path, $500 will
not do the business. Anything short
Of the earth, and the fullness thereof,
would not remove temptation out Of
the reach OF some OF them,

On January Is, ruling Of the Inter
state Commerce Commission Went into
effec; forbidding railroad companies
from dealing in coal. Under the rul-
ing railroad companies may only mine
coal toT their own use, Heretofore a
number OF railroads. notably the North
EN- Pacific, have engaged extensively
in the business Of selling coal to the
public. Probably this, to large ex-
tent, accounts for the coal shortage.
