THE BASt6ALIISTS
 PLAN ORGANIZATION
Movement Set on Foot Last Night to
 Put Sport on Business Basis.

An impetus was given the formation of a city or valley league the which has not yet been settled, by a meet ing of the baseball fans. enthusiasts. managers of the three mines. and Oth- CTS, held at the city hall Wednesday night. The meeting proceeded to effect a temporary organization and a com mittee was selected to draft bylaws and rules of regulations. The officers elected were: l.. M. Ormsby chair man, R. M. Dawson secretary; the committee. Messrs. Messrs Herzberg. Gormely. Leyhe, Rudolph and the chairman and secretary eX-officio members.
 The session aroused considerable discussion as to whether three or four teams should be taken in and an ex- pression was had from a number, in cluding the officers and committee members, Lewis. Warner and others. At the close or the meeting the mat ter stood as it had in the beginning, though much light had been let in, as to the variety of views. The con sensus of opinion rather favored talk ing in Mesa and making the organiza tion a valley affair. This will be further discussed in the committee meeting and a report submitted to the next meeting of the proposed organi- Zation. One of the rules will be that no player once signed with team can be drafted to play with an op- posing nine in the league, a very nee essary regulation to preserve harmony.
 With the long summer before the baseballists, some good sport is want ed to liven up the old town and fur nish amusement on Sundays. Organ iZed baseball was tried last year in Tucson and was made a success. It was again started off Sunday with a flourish of trumpets, Mayor Slack tossing the first ball over the pan. and it promises to endure the coming sea son. There seems no reason why a city league could not be made a go in Phoenix if the games are given the right support and the ball players show the proper spirit. Out of the three or four teams will be selected a nine to compete against Prescott or Tucson whenever one of them is brought here for game. Last year at Tucson the merchants offered prizes tp tllt W tttiliio Nihti ed the interest and gave the hines something to play for besides gate re- ceipts and honor.
 After the game between Mesa and the Brotherhood next Sunday baseball interest is expected to awaken, and after the contests with Prescott on April 1 and ,. the wheels will be fully set in motion. The next meeting will be held on Thursday night of next week. when the plans and rules will be presented to the ball players for their endorsement.

oils Trust and Savings

between the Western national and the
Metropolis trust and savings banks by
which a majority of the stock of both
institutions is held by the same par
ties. There will be no consolidation,
but harmony of interests will pre-
vail The two concerns will remain in
their respective buildings and no change
viii be made in the officers OF each.
For some months persons affiliated with
the Metropolis bank. together with out
siders, have been buying heavily of
Western national stock These pur-
chases have been made at prices rang
ing from Sis to $125 and have in
volved an outlay of several hundred
thousand dollars
The combination Of interests is in
line with the policy of large financial
concerns which have found it expedient
TO control commercial. savings and trust
departments. The Western national is
primarily q commercial bank, while the
Metropolis IS devoted TO savings and
trust purposes
Clarence Grange, vice president and
manager Of the Metropolis bank, in dis
cussing the matter, said:
The leading stock holders Of the Metropolis
bank and the Western national bank have com

The Western national is located IN
