to impress the baseball populace Of Rich

The Washington Herald's correspondent
has the following to say:
Fail TO Impress Richmond Fans.
Special to The Washington Herald
Richmond, Va, April 1O.-After two op-
pOrtunities Of witnessing the work OF the
Kew York Americans. the consensus of
opinion among the Richmond fans is
that the Yankee aggregation for this sea-
son is not very promising.
On yesterday the first team won only
after the most strenuous efforts from the
state League team, and this afternoon
the second team took the game by one
lone run at the tail end Of play
The work OF Quinn, last years Rich
mond pitcher, was really the only re-
deeming feature Of the first teams exhi-
bition In Richmond. Quinn not only
pitched a mastery game, but led in the
batting starting the fun each time BIZ
driving the bah for two bases and making
two OF the runs for his team It is the
opinion here that unless Stallings' team
improves wonderfully during the season
It viii wind up in the cellar.

Charlottesville. Va. April 10-For the
first time in the history Of the track
athletics has a big university OF the
North met one or the South in a dual
meet. The dual meet between Yale and
Virginia this afternoon gives US the first
real basis OF comparison for the relative

TO
Be SUBMITTED
Republicans to Give Democrats
Chance to Get on Winning
Ticket.

The city committee of the Citizens
party held a meeting last evening at the
office of c. B. Felt al q Postoffice place.
The conference committee reported that
no agreement had been reached with the
Republicans relative to fusion, and it was
instructed TO confer with the Democrats
al 3 o'clock this afternoon to arrange
some basis for fusion. The Citizens party
is in need OF several more candidates for
city Offices, most Of their candidates hav-
ing resigned from the ticket, and they
are probably trying to secure new candi-
dates by fusion.
As the result of a conference held last
evening between James D. Murdoch, the
Republican candidate for mayor, and
Frederick c. LOofbourow, chairman Of
the Republican city committee. it was de-
cided to submit fusion proposition TO
the Democratic party today. BY the
terms of the proposition to be submitted
to the Democrats, the Republicans will
name the mayor to head the ticket. From
the other four offices the Democrats are
to select any office and to name a man
for it Then from the other three the
Republicans are to select an office and to
name a man for the office. OF the re-
naming two offices the Democrats are
to be given their choice leaving the re-
naming office to be filled by the Repub-
lcans.
Under this arrangement the Republicans
VIII have the mayor and two other Of
fees on the city ticket and the Demo-
Gratis will have two offices. In view of
thu splendid organization which the Re
pUbliCans have now in operation and IN
view Of the fact that the prevalent senti-
ment among the Republicans is that the
Republican city ticket viii be elected
whether or not there is any fusion, the
proposition is considered a fair one.
