THE DIAM OND
CITY LEAGUE
 NAMES PLAYERS
Pick of the City Amateurs Will Represent the League This
 Season.

The managers of the City Amateur league held meeting at the St Jo- seph rooms last night and did con- siderable business. The schedule committee reported but as it was not fully decided when the season will open the schedule will not be given out for the present. President Ma loney and Managers Madden and Kill marvin were appointed a committee to contract for the grounds for the season. Two umpires will be used this year and James Thompson, for mer umpire for the Shop league, made application for one of the places and his application was placed on file.
 The managers all handed in their lists of players. Many of the names handed in are on several lists and if the managers persist in claiming them then the rule which says play CT belongs to the team with which he first play, will be enforced. The fol- lowing are the lists as handed in: Washington Hills--P. Lawlor, Mulligan, Carmody, Phelan, Delaney, Dulac, McMahon, Burke. Edmonds, Shove, Smith, Cunningham and Shy Ider.
 Pastimes--Conrad. Spellman, Ed monds, Moran, Gaffney, F. Henebry, l.. Henebry, Laundria and Dews. Brooklyns--Lachance. Kelly, Ed monds, Lund, Cunningham, Legge, Reese, Cronan and Campion.
 St Joseph ST. Byrnes. Larson, Harvey. Johnson, Spellman, Erwin, c. Byrnes, Lockwood, Kinsella and Memo.
 North Ends--T. Lawlor, Kane, Noonan, Campion, Conrad, Hodges, Johnson. Phelan, shambo, Shove, Newhart, Fox and Bassett. Merrimacs--Slavin, Burgess, Noon- an. Cleary, Byrnes, Phelan, Foley, Harvey, Ghent, Walsh, Ryan, Cam lpion and Lallier.
 Several of the players have been claimed by more than one club It is expected that the matter will be straightened out at the next meet ing of the league.

 I The boys department of the Chat tanooga Y. M. c. A. has organized a bicycle baseball club. The players are equipped with bicycles and by riding from one town to anotaer where they are to play save expense and the riding it is thought keeps them in good condition.
 President Philetus Konkle of the Newark, N. J. team in the new At lantic league stated yesterday that IS lyet no manager of the team had been selected. He said that the job has been offered to Mike Mccormack, the former Hoyoke player, but as he nas joined the Nashville, Tenn club, 1t is very unlikely that he will accept the position.

 tifulIy and Won steeplerhase.
 WASHINGTON, April 1.-Two fea- lures marked the opening of the sec. ond weeks racing at Bennings-the regular Easter steeplechase, with $750 added. and handicap for three-year- olds, with $500 added. Three favor- ites. two second choices and an out slider won the six events. In the stee- plechase Pioneer, the odds-on favorite, took the jumps beautifully and won by length and half.
 In the handicap Tickle got away in front and never was headed, the fla vorite. slickaway. getting the place.
 The opening event was won by Anna May. the Q to 5 favorite, in a field of thirteen. who took the lead in the first furlong and won with ease. Lady Powell. at 15 to 1. won the second in the good time of 0:50 1-5 for the half mile.
 Jubilee. a promising looking colt, piloted by Radtke. beat the heavily played favorite. Glaucus. in the third event.
 In the final event Reidmoere. slight favorite over Niblick. won about as he pleased. Bulwark and Betsy Binford were left at the post. The latter. how. ever. caught the three leaders in the stretch and got the place. Summaries:
 First Race.-Anna May. first; Rose of Dawn. second; Revenue. third.
 Second Race. = Lady lowell. first; Reckon. second: Marrimac. third.

Amateur League Standing.
POLO MEETING.
League Will Close for This Season on
 Friday, April 12.

New Haven, April 2.--Only slight modification of the length of the regular playing season was made at the special meeting of the Connecti- cut Roller Polo league, held at the Hotel Garde, yesterday afternoon. Every club was represented, ma jority of the cities sending two men, and after the length of the playing season was generally discussed, a recommendation made by the presi- dent was adopted. It was voted to terminate the season the night of Friday, April 12, but the schedule will call for but two games by each club next week. one at home and one abroad.
 The following teams will be paired in the two-series games next week: Hartford and New Britain. New Ha- ven and Wallingford, Bridgeport and Waterbury. The Hartford team will meet New Britain at home on Tues day, April g. and close the season in New Britain, Thursday, April II. Wallingford will meet New Haven in that city next Monday night and the teams will close their season at Wal lingford on Wednesday, April 10. Waterbury will play in Bridgeport next Monday night and these teams will close their season in Waterbury, Friday, April 12, the last game of the scheduled season. Several of the managers yesterday expressed their intention of giving the proceeds of the last home games to the players, although the contests will be regu- larly scheduled and will count in the standing. This was thought to be a better plan than arranging post-sea- son benefit games. which are gener- ally poorly attended.
 The receipts of Good Fridays games were pooled and divided be- tween the five clubs that participated in double headers. New Haven being excepted because that club did not play home game on Friday night. Several bills were ordered paid and many details concerning matters were informally discussed. The managers expressed themselves as we'll satisfied with the seasons work and the support given the game in the several cities.
 It was voted to hold the annual meeting at the Atlantic hotel, Bridgeport. on the night of Tuesday, April Is. The magnates will be the guests of Eadie and Simmons, who will see that they are we'll enter tained. The president and secretary were also requested to visit the city when the pennant is won and award the trophy cup to the team at the last home game played by the cham pion club. It is probable that these exercises will be held h Bridgeport next Monday night. The new hold. CTS of franchises in Springfield and Holyoke were invited to attend the annual meeting.
 Those present yesterday included President I. W. Pyne. Hsrtford: Sec retary William Peet. New Haven: Harry Starkie. Hartford: George b Bone. New Haven: Sam Simmons and R. W. Eadie. Bridgeport: W. W. Hanna. New Britain. F. D. Roche and N. F. Owens. Wallingford: P. F. McMahon and Richard Halliwell Waterbury.

 There is a chance that Mir Jeffries he brought out of his retirement. for if a big enough purse was offered no doubt the present champion and Squires could he brought together. should Jeffries still decline. Jack Ss..tt.. In.I- xar Burns. would be selected as his op- ponent.
