Whitewater lads play and who will
referee the games this evening, says
that the Reserves will have consider

considering the fact that the Reserves

OHIO TOWNS DELIGHTED
WITH THE PROSPECTS
All Towns on Interurbans, Ex-
cept Two and Travelling Ex-
penses Would Be Lighter
Than First Anticipated.

Newark, O., Jan. 17.-EVery fan in
the city of Newark is delighted with
the new league that was formed in
Columbus Tuesday. The opinion as
generally expressed is that the new
Ohio State league as it stands nov is
stronger than the O. +. league ever
was, and they are probably right. Not

thority if they didn't think it .irst
class in every way for 4 baseball town,
The fans think and rightly, too. that
the break that occurred between the
east and the west was the best thing
that could have happened for the
teams in the western end. The west
erners thought that anyway, and the
81 900 offered was just so much vel
vet for the starting of the new league,
that is destined to outshine the 0. i.
as it now stands, in many ways.
The eastern papers are congratulate
ing their one time circuit mates upon
securing as president of the league
as thorough a base ball man as Bobby
Quinn is. He is known all over the
country as one of the best informed
base ball man in the United States.
Some questions have been asked for
information regarding the new towns
in the league.
Lima is a city of 25,445 people, and
is the center of the Ohio oil field.
There are about 5000 wells and a re-
| finery in the vicinity. 1t is on the c..
| II. & D., Lake Erie & Western, Detroit
Southern, Pennsylvania, and Colum-
bus, Lima and Milwaukee railroads.
| The manufactures are varied and in
clude railroad shops, boiler, straw
board, egg crates, nitroglycerine, car
and engine works.
Springfield has a population of 40.
| 1G1, and is on the Big Four, Erie
Pennsylvania and Detroit Southern
railroads. 1t is in a large agricultu,
raj region and there is a large tame ry
located in the city. 1t is the center
of many manufacturing industries.

,All the towns are on interurban rail

Letween Mansfield aud Newark. all
the cities are connected by elctrIc
lines. The jumps are small and with
the salary limit kept down, there is
no reason why all the teams shouldn't
make money this season. Base bali is
becoming more and more popular Zach
year, the game is cleaner and faster
tnan ever before and the base ball
heads over the country predict a
great Sc ason for the teams.
The time for opening the season has
not yet been decided upon, but the
regular Ohio State league sc ason will
probably not start before May first.
The eighth town in the league is
just now causing a great deal OF spec
ulation on the part of the fans. Mum
Gle seems to be the favored one from
the stand point of bug but Hamil-
ton is also looked on with favor.
The managers of the league who
will pick out the new town, are of
course men from the old towns, New
ark Mansfield, Marion and Lancaster.
They will start out shortly to look
over the cities that seem to be hotbedS
for base ball and their report will
probably be made next week.

INTERSTATE POLO
LEAGUE D|SBANDS
Three Towns Quit Under
Protest.

Youngstown. O., Jan. 1.-THE Inter

cation of the kind in this country, has
gone to the wall. Almost all the
old Western and Central league play
ers were members of the various inter
state teams.
At a meeting held in Youngstown.
Sharon and Akron made known the
fact that they were ready to quit. The
other three teams in the league-Bea-

continue, but as the losers couldn't
see the percentage the league was dis
banded.

BUCKEYE STATE is
TWO-THIRDS DRY
But Only One Third Of the Sa-
looms Are Voted Out.

Cleveland, o., Dec. 7.-Fifty-five of
Ohio's So counties are dry. Seven
are wet This is the result of six
months work on the part of the Ohio
Anti-Saloon league since the Rose
county option law went into effect
OF the So counties in which the sa-
looms have been voted out, five went
dry under an old law. AS little prog
ress was made by the anti-saloon fol-
lowers under that law, it was dis
placed by the new law, which has
been successful. Voting will be held
in practically all of the remaining &c
counties within the next few months
The counties remain dry or wet, &C
cording to the vote, for three years.
In point of population, the state is
nearly half dry now. In point of area
1t is two-thirds dry. Most of the dry
counties do not contain large cities
So far about 1870 saloons have been
voted out, which is estimated to be
about one-third of the total number
that were in the state before the
county option voting began.

CONGRESS GETS
TOGETHER TODAY
Little Important Legislation is in
view-WiIl Take Two
Weeks Recess.

Washington, Dec. IF the Repub-
lican leaders in the senate and house
retain their present views, the legis-
lation of the session of congress
which begins today noon will include
very little except the appropriation
bills. These appropriation bills will
carry in the aggregate about billion
dollars, and the general opinion is
that in the time that will be allowed
the two houses will find they can
best serve the country by giving
proper attention to these appropria-
lions.
AS a matter of fact, while the ses-
sion will last for almost three
months, the actual sitting time will
cover only a little more than two
months. A recess of two weeks will
be taken for the holidays, and at the
beginning of the session the senate,
if not the house, also will sit only for
about four days a week.
There will be a general effort to
hold the appropriations down to the
lowest possible limit, but the proba-
bilities are that they will this year,
as they did last, exceed a billion
dollars. 1t is generally understood
that there will be a bill for the i'm
provement of rivers and harbors, and
it will carry not less than $25, 900, 100
or $30,00U,000. 1t will also be neces-
sary to make provision this year for
the census of 1910, and this will re-
quire an extra outlay of not less than
100000.
The fact that the managers desire
to restrict legislation will not prevent
other members of the senate and
house from exerting their efforts in
behalf of favOrite measures. The first
effort in this direction will be made
in the senate by Mr.. Foraker, who
will renew his attempt to have pass
ed the bill authorizing the re-enlist-
ment of the negro soldiers who were
discharged without honor on account
of the Brownsville riot. This meas
ure will be the special order for Dec.
16, and when the order was made
just before the adjournment Of the
last session Mr. Foraker stated that
he would use his utmost endeavors
for the success Of the bill
