BASEBALL RIGHTS
 MUST BE UPHELD
Invasion of American ASsoCia-
 tion te Be Repelled
NO CHANGE IN DRAFTING
Major Leagues Are to Retain Right to Draft From the Bush Leagues
 In Order to Quickly
 Develop Players.

Cincinnati, January 10-Although the de- cisien of the National baseball comns- sion on the various resolutions presented by the American association was an nounced at the time of the annual meeting last week, the full explanation of the reasons for their action was not given until Saturday, when the finding was formally promulgated. Regarding the re- quest for indorsement in the attempt to place an American association club in Chi cago, after stating that the subject was not within the jurisdiction of the commits sion, the report says:
 ''The commission, however, is prepared at this time to go on record as opposed without qualification to a territorial in- fringement of this kind, and will strongly recommend that the petition be denied. The foundation upon which organized baseball rests today is the respecting of territorial rights, the enforcement of all contracts, the reservation of players and the opportunity provided for players to advance in their profession and receive adequate compensation for their services. To encroach upon each of these provisions would be like pulling the cornerstone from this foundation"
 The proposition to draft players only from the clubs in the next lower league is disapproved, because it is in violation of the object of the national agreement, which provides for the promotion of well fare of ball players as a class by de- veloping them and perfecting in their pro- fession and enabling them to secure ade- quate compensation for their expertness. A player in Class D could advance to major league only at the end of three years, which the commission believes to be wrong. The reason given for opposing the change in classification of the Pacific Coast league and others is that when the Pacific Coast league was admitted to or ganized baseball it was distinctly agreed that 1t should be Class A league. So far as the other leagues mentioned, the Southern and Western, are concerned. the National Association of Minor Leagues Is said to have full authority
 The resolution aimed against the farm ing" of players is approved In principle, the commission stating that it had sl- ready adopted measures to the same end.

 Deacon Jim Mcclure, manager of the Boston Americans, has signed 40 men. But can't see wherein Boston will achieve anything wonderful. The infield will probably be as follows: Unglaub, first; Laporte, second; Lord, youngster of great promise, third; Wagner, short.
 Thoney. Sullivan and Gessler will prob ably be the outfielders. Cy Young and Jesse Tannehill will be on hand again. Winter, Morgan, Pruitt and host of others will be the pitchers. Criger and Shaw will do the catching, aided by Carrigan.
 McAleer with his St. Louis ouit is very hopeful. But I can't see much ahead for him. In the infeld he has Arthur Brown of Montreal, first; Ferris, second; Williams third; Wallace, short
 He has a strong array of pitchers in Powell, Howell, Pelty, Dineen and Bailey. The outfieiders are heavy hitters-Stone, Hoffman and Charlie Jones' the latter secured from Washington for Picker ing.
 His catchers will be Stephens and Blue.
 Few will agree with Joe Cantillon that he has a wining aggregation at Wash ington. Here is his line-up Freeman of the west, first; Jim Delehanty, sec ond; Altizer, third Mcbride, short; Cly- mer, Pickering, Ganley outfielders; Wal ter Johnston, a star; Hughes, Patten, Faulkenberg Gehring, C.

Gardener Falls and Is Killed.

New York, January 19.-In an attempt to avoid death in pit of bears today, Joseph Maher gardener at the Bronx Zoo, leaped from a falling tree into beaver pond and was instantly killed. Maher was pruning a tree between the bear enclosure and the beavers pond. Unknown to him the roots of the tree had been eaten away by the beavers, and when he reached the top it gave way with his weight. The falling trunk swayed toward the bear pit and the gar dener tried to swing himself clear of the branches into the pond adjoining, but his head struck the edge of the tank, breaking his neck.

New Orleans, January 19.-(Special) Conditions in New Orleans were never more favorable than at the present time. The volume of exports of the last few months exceeds those of any like period in the history of the city.

constituencies, and the people would begin to rule
through their senatorial body of lawmakers
Mr.. Bryan took up the despotic usurpation of
power by the speaker of the house, declared it un-
democratic and said the people could not rule until
they could give expression to their purposes and de-
sires through the house. as we'll as through the
ate.
Concluding his address to the notification COM
mittee, Mr.. Bryan presented the doctrine of true
government and promised his loyalty to that doc
trine, saying:
There is a divine law of rewards When the
Creator gave us the earth with its fruitful soil, the
sunshine with its warmth and the rains with their
moisture, He proclaimed, clearly as II His voice
had Numbered from the clouds GO work, and ac-
cording to your industry and your intelligence, so
shall be your reward" Only where might has over
thrown cunning undermined or government sus-
pended this law, has different law prevailed To
conform the government to this law ought to be the
ambition of the statesman; and no party can have
higher mission than to make 1t reality wherever
governments can legitimately operate.
Recognizing that | am indebted for my nomlna
ton to the rank and file of our party, and that my
election must come if it at all, from the
purchased and unpurchasable suffrages of the Amer
lean people, promise, if entrusted with the response
bilities of this high office, to consecrate whatever
ability | have to the purpose of making this III
fact, a government in which the people rule gov
eminent which will do justice to all, and offer to
every the highest possible stimulus to great and
persistent effort by assuring to each the enjoyment
of his just share of the proceeds of his toll, mat
ter in what part of the vineyard he labors, or to
what occupation, profession or calling he deVotes
himself.

An Effect of Patronage.

Among the happenings of last week that were
either important unimportant interesting or I'M
interesting might be disposed to view them,
was the presence in Boise of Burton L. French, the
person who occupies the seat that Idaho is entitled
to in the national house of representatives
Mr. French has been referred to as an intellectual
wart but The Scimtar does not approve of the ap
plication in politics out of politics, of wild and
woolly an expression and is doing its utmost to pre-
vail upon the press and the public to employ appro-
pirate language when speaking of great men. 1t is
not able discern any superative degree of intellect
in the subject of this perverson of terms
But The Scinitar started out to say that Mr..
French delivered himself of a quantity of political
opinion while in Boise and in the midst of it all
he was induced to talk about Colonel Hamer, of
ST. Anthony, whom aspirant for the seat that
Mr. French does not fill at Washington.
1t appeared to the Idaho imitator of congress
men that the colonel had swallowed the bait thrown
to hirr-the receivershp of the Blackfoo land office
and was so sufficiently gorged with honor and
perquistes that he would not continue to annoy the
darling of the herarchal machine.
There were great hopes, while ago, that Colonel
Hamer would push his candidacy in the interest
of the adequate consummaton of the scheme of the
national constitution which that each state
is entitled to representation in congress, but ac-
cording to Mr.. French, it's all off.
The vacancy will be continued, unless the voter
of the state should accept the entcing offer of the
democratic party, which presents Frank Harris, of
Washington county, for the place
1t seems hardly probable that any will per
NIT partisanship stand in the way Of the relief
the state is entitled to and Idaho is looking for
ward to the November event with highly wrought
expectation

BLACK FOREST CLOCKS.
Famous Clocks Hold Their Own In
Markets of World for 200 Years.

According to Jeweler and Horol-
ogy Expectation, published in the in
terests of the German export trade,
the Black Forest clock industry, dat
ing from the beginning Of the 18th
century, has held its place in the mar
kets Of the Europe and America for
over 200 years. This success is as
cribed to the wood carvings. cuckoo
clocks, and similar specialties.
At one time division of labor and
the introduction of modern factory
methods in the United States threat
osled not only TO drive the German
clocks from the American market,
but the American clocks even enter
ed into competition in Europe with
the German product. The Black
Forest people introduced modern
methods however, and not only re-
gained their former state Of pros
perity, but have greatly Increased
their output. Since 1880 the clocks
exported have increased over 800 per
cent. Within the past six years
France has more than doubled her
imports Of Black Forest clocks, the
Argentine Republic has tripled her
imports and the United States has
more than quadrupled hers. How
ever, Great Britain is the heaviest
purchaser, taking one-third Of the
total exports.

operation of the new Oregon law
fishing in the upper river has been
all but stopped for the past month.
Reports now coming in indicate that
the run of the fish i'm all parts of the
river is exceptionally large. and there
are now more fish accessible to the
spawning grounds than has been
known in years.
'I have been told by the manager
of the Ontario fish hatchery that in
all probability that institution will
this season hatch out 100000 sal
mon eggs. If half the young fry
reach maturity it will be a good
thing for the salmon industry What
ever may be the tangle between the
two states. great good has been done
by Oregon's efforts to regulate fish
ing in the upper part of the river"
Warden McAllster has notified the
local trade that as a result of the in
junction restraining Oregon officials
the river is now open to all and that
there is nothing to prevent the trade
handling fish from any part Of the
stream. Fishing is now general in
both the upper and lower river, and
the trade is well supplied. For a
time the market is considered weak,
but no price changes were announced
today.
The salmon spawning season usu-
ally runs through October and No
vember, but for a week or more some
Of the early salmon have been spawn
ing in the upper river and tributaries,
and the prospect is that the hatch
will be unusually heavy.

BOY READY FOR
COLLEGE AT 10
Lad Who Could Read at 2, Passes
Technology Examination.

Boston, Oct. S.-Although William
]. Sdis of Brookline, 10 years, old,
astounded the learned folks here by
entrance to the Massachusetts Insti-
tute of Technology, and was entitled to
matriculate when the institution op-
ems its term. his parents decided to
keep him at home this year, letting
him study as he pleases.
The boy, so marvellous in his pre-
cocity and in attainments along a high
plane of learning, is the son of DR..
Boris Sidis, a Russian. He is practi-
cally self-educated. At years Of age
he could read and write and at was
master OF four languages, which he
spoke fluently and read at sight.
The wonderful youngster rapidly
outstripped children many years his
senior in the studies pursued in the
public schools, and when years old
entered the Brookline High school
He remained there only five months,
as he was far in advance of the other
pupils, and since that time he has
diligently added to his store of knowl-
edge, until today he is quite capable Of
discussing the nebula hypothesis or an
abstruse problem in trigonometry.
A few weeks ago the boy undertook
to pass the examinations for the in
stitute. He was successful, and said
that he did not "thlnk they were very
hard" When it is remembered that
the average age of the tech man
Is 21 years, and that the school is at
least equal to any technical school on
the continent, the magnitude of the
boys accomplishment will be appre-
ciated. But his parents, both of whom
are physicians, have decided that he
should not be pushed and that he had
best postpone his course at the insti-
tute for a time.
There Is nothing uncommon in
Williams appearance. He has excel
lent health. His mother said that he
derives much enjoyment from the
study of mathematics and physics and
he reads omniverously. He does not
often play with children, but prefers
the company of ADULTS, with whom he
discourse such subjects as are re-
garded as academical and upon which |
he has decided views.
