(By Tort.)

Manager Clarence Jessup has just
received two splendid offers from
league teams who are in need Of his
services the coming season. Yester-
day he received an offer to take the
management of the East Liverpool, o.,
team in the O.-P. league. An attract
i've salary was added to this offer. A
few days ago he received an offer from
Billy Lush, the former American
league star and once-upon-a-time ref
cree in the defunct Western Polo
league, to sign with the Memphis team
i'll the Southern league. Lush has
severed his connection with Yale uni
versity, where he has acted as baseball
coach, and will once more get back in
TO the professional game. Jessup
has declined both offers as he intends
to remain here this season.
Only a Few Weeks More.
In just a little more than a month
Richmond fans will get their first peep
at the local team. The bugs are now
out in full blast and all over town one
hears the festive baseball chatter. If

Others Are Ready.
News from Anderson and Muncie
shows that those two towns are rapid
ly mounting the 10. league band wag-
on. Dial Williams is now certain that
he will have team in the former city.
William Norton is businly engaged
with Williams in organizing a stock
company and they are experiencing
but little trouble in placing stock, ac-
cording to the Anderson papers. Jack
Grim is quietly, but Systematically at
work making arrangements for placing
club in Munce. "A league team in
that town would draw like a porous
plaster" is the way Grim sizes up the
Muncie situation. The first of this
week President Gamble was notified
by Manager Sank of the Piqua team
that everything was lovely in that city
and the fans were now impatiently
awaiting the opening of the season.

HOW NEW YORK RAISED THE WIND.

The recent sale Of 100000 of bonds by the
city of New York turned up queer state of affairs
illustrating modern finance.
Comptroller Metz awarded half the bonds to Rookie
felers National City bank and received for them the
banks check for $15O0OOO0 J. p Morgans First Ma
tonal bank bought the other $15000000 worth Of the
bonds and gave its check Comptroller Metz deposited
the First Nationals check in the National City bank and
the check of the latter institution in the First National
bank Thus each Of these banks keeps as much money
credit it paid and yet the city is paying per cent
interest for nothing except the substitution Of the banks
credit for the credit of the city of New York.
The for the sale of the bonds and the unusual
rate of interest paid that money tight and
the city wanted to be able to meet pay rolls and other
pressing bills
Did the bond issue produce any 'money"? Did the
banks advance money to meet the ctys pay roll No. gen
tie reader The policemen remen teachers laborers and
Others were handed out clearing house paper.
The net result seems to be that the people Of New
York are paying John and Piepont $4,000 day. about
&loO0OOO year for this neat transaction Of high finance
Query: Is the credit of banks better and stronger
than the credit of great city? If So why so?

FAIRBANKS LEADS RACE
FOR PRIVA TIE LIFE TERM

WASHINGTON. d. c., Feb. g.
If Taft wins who will get the NOM

ticket with him? SO certain are
the Tafters becoming of the vic
tory of their candidate that this
question has begun to receive con.
sideration
Not Fairbanks. That is about as
far as the answer has gone. In no
case will Fairbanks be put on any
ticket with a Roosevelt candidate.
If reactionary wins; If the con-
vention by any chance should name
Knox or Hughes or Cannon, then
Fairbanks would be considered,
and would take second place. But
he cannot get on any Roosevelt
ticket.
During the fight which the reac-
tionaries have been making to
overthrow the Roosevelt policies,
Fairbanks has lent all the aid and
comfort he could to the enemy. He
has been hand in glove with Harri-
man, and has the advantage of
Wall SITS. money and influence in
all moves against the president.
In this connection it is to be
noted that Fairbanks, having lost
his senatorship, must either win as
president or become the tail Of an
antiRoosevelt ticket or become a
