POWERS WANTS
NEW CLASSIFICATION

T.. 4. Powers. president of the Eastern
League. has sent the following commu-
nication To Eastern League managers.
The epistle explains itself;
'At the last meeting OF the National
Association OF Baseball Leagues in Now
York the American association and the
Eastern League co-operated In move
ment whereby II was expected that some
action would be taken which would re-
suit in our being advanced TO a clsssifi-

the case of the trust property.
Two OF the trustees set up the defence
that the trust estate is not responsible for

no authority TO order the stun he bought
of Mr. Harris. Mr. Paine swore that he
had talked the matter or buying this lum-
Der over with MIR. Wood "A former trus-
tee. since deceased. and MIR. Wood agreed
that the lumber was needed Mr. Paine
admitted on the witness stand that Mr..
Wood refused TO sign the check for the
lumber. Mr.. Paine denied that he was
the real owner of the business conduct

Henry W. Hlycs and John IIenshaw
represented Mr.. Harris. and Green,
Hinclxley a. Allen represented Trustees
stephen O.. Edwards and Sheldon. and
John $. Murdock represented Mr. Paine.
Mr.. Edwards was a witness. and there
were all sorts OF tangles over the ad-
mission of testimony md the allowa<-
OF questions. The difficult point was TO
prove that there had been such q course
OF dealings as would not Justify Mr. Har-
ris in selling TO Mr.. Paine on the credit
OF the trust estate. Mr. Paine and Mr..
Harris both claimed other goods ordered
by Mr.. Paine had been paid for TO Huf-
rs. There have been many controversies
between Mr.. Paine and others interested
in the estate.

eral has been asked by Secretary Taft
10 take charge OF Mr.. Tafts political IN
terests in the South and East He has
the invitation under advisemcnt.

spiracy'' which was alleged 10 have been
organized to bring about George Is. Cor
teyou's nomination for the presidency
under cover OF getting up sentiment In
favor of a third term for President
Roosevelt
The invitation rendered TO Mr.. Hitch
cock by Mr.. Taft puts an end to all the
conspiracy" talk and is bound, II is
said, TO cause cold chills To run up and
down the spines OF those workers for the
secretary OF war who complained TO Mr.
Roosevelt that Secretary Cortelyou and
Mr.. Hitchcock were not playing fair.
The action OF Mr.. Taft in selecting Mr..
Hitchcock for his political manager In
the South and East is the first step i'm the
understood intention OF the Ohio candi-
date To bring order out of chaos Into
which his campaign for the presidential
nomination has been thrown.

OF dispossess proceedings were obtained
from the municipal courts yesterday by
the East Side landlords as a rctaliatory
move against the tenants who decline 10
pay their rents until their demands for
a reduction have been allowed.
The strike leaders asserted that 1900
families had refused TO pay rent this
month. Attorneys for the tenants propose
TO have the dispossess cases tried sepa.

may be forced into submission by inter-
