While the attorneys for state, and officials of the railroad com- mission are going about looking for the best way to deal with the railroads, T. M. Mehaffy, the general counsel for the Iron Mt. in Arkansas, sits quietly by and watches the passing show There is but one way to go at this mat ter," said Mehaffy today. 'and that is for the people to arrive at a fair compensation for the work done by the railroads, then allow the railroads to charge rates ac- cordingly. The railroads and the people should both submit to such a course as this."

DICK o'BRIEN IS STILL GAME.

Dick o'Brien of Lewiston still claims to be tho middleweight cham pion of Maine, but he is thirty pounds heavier than when he fought Tommy Ryan. He was knocked out by Dave Sawyer at Rockland a few nights ago. Sawyer's rough and ready tactics made but small im- pression on o'Brien in the first two rounds. In the early part of the third, however, the Lewiston man weakened suddenly and when Saw yer sent him to the floor 0'Brien's seconds threw the sponge into the ring. 0'Brien refused to abide by the surrender and at the count of six was again on his feet gamely taking his punishment. A dozen blows rained upon his face and body sent him down for keeps.

Something seems to be wrong.

 Pawtucket comes here tomorrow night and that means another fast game. That team is making trouble for all the others and 1t is no cincn when you go up against her.
 Louis Cronan says he is thinking of challenging the winner of the National league at the end of the sea- son. That Brooklyn bunch certainly have the goods and can deliver them.
 It was pretty near time that some of the referees put a ban on the barn door shin pads. Red Rorty stacked up against the Providence goal tend CT Saturday night and the eonse- quence was a forfeited game.
 Talk about Waterbury being z drawing card, there is no team in this league that can attract the att tention and the attendance that this city does throughout the circuit. Look at that attendance over in New Britain Saturday night. How they ever got 2.sOO people in there Is a mystery.

GREAT TIME THERE.

The first forfeited game of the season was recorded in Providence Saturday night, when Referee Rorty gave the game to New Haven, be- cause Mallory, the Providence goal tender, refused to leave the floor and make changes to comply with the shin-pad rule.
 An hour before the game Referee Rorty, the fair-haired master of even the uncomfortable, quietly tipped of Mallory and told him that if he wore shin-pads wider than nine inches apiece he would either have to take them of or cause the for feiture of the game to New Haven. Mallory, advised by Powerful Nick" the fearless wonder, did not heed the friendly advice of the ''Roring Red One" but sauntered out onto the floor with the rest of the home actors and started practic- ing. His guards were twelve inches wide apiece and they had three ex- tensions on them. All that was necessary for him to do was to stand in the middle of the front of the cage and 1t was impossible for the ball to pass.
 Rorty stepped up to Mallory and read the riot act. He told the Proyi- dence bill board that he had received a letter from Secretary Pyne of Hartford stating that the referee must enforce the rule of making all goal tenders comply with that rule agreed upon at the league meeting.
 Mallory was stubborn and McGil- yray more so. Both players kicked about during the five minutes al- lotted to them by the righteous one. continuing to state that they would not cause the changing of the guards. Rorty held his watch for this five minutes and then an- nouneed that the game vas forfeit ed.

 in Providence.

New Britain, Feb 3.--The New Brit ain polo team trimmed Waterbury at Hanna's Armory Saturday night to 8. About 2,900 fans were in attendT ance and two hundred more had to be turned away, unable to get standing room in the hall. A special train brought over POO Brass City polo cranks from the Naugatuck valley, They were armed with tin horns and bells and made din worthy of several times their numbers. In the third period their enthusiasm subsided, when the Jeanies caged five goals while the tail enders were able only to get one behind Ramon, who didn't have on his roof garden shin pads either. For the first two periods, the game was as exciting as the most fas- tidious fan would like to see. Jason was struck by Lyons stick and retir- ed in Loxson's favor. The Mercer Harkins combination kept Holderness and sthe Kid'' worried to pieces. The lineup and summary:
