Belmont Stakes Worth SIS, 900.

The Belmont stakes, an event of the
turf that has been contested for year
ly since 1867, will be run of during
the spring meeting at the Belmont
park track. It will be worth nearly
325,0OO-the most valuable three-year-
old stake in America--and nearly as
great, intrinsically, as the Futurity.
The distance of the race is one mile
and three furlongs. Out Of the 113
nominations made for this event, there
are now 16 colts eligible.

I know, for have figured it out. The
best scheme that can be arranged IN
der their ideas will compel them to
schedule several double headers in
the east in order to work in 1853
games between April II and October
16. That is a bad thing for baseball
and cheapens it. There are too many
double headers at best when only the
weather postponements make them.
There will be only one year of the
1853 game business I'll bet, and they
will be glad to go back to the 154

The longer season advocates dis

That the number of conflicting dates
between the rival teams in the same
city will be increased goes without
saying, as the international series can
not be made to dovetail as heretofore
on account of the additional game
each club must play in each city under
the Nationals 1913 game schedule. On

committees it will be due to Dreyfuss'
ability as peacemaker. The Pirate
magnate said he thought he would
draft 1874 game schedule anyway, SO
as to have it ready for the old league
to adopt in February when It found
1853 games impracticable.

The National league umpires ought
to, and no doubt do. feel pleased at the
election of Lynch as president. When
Tom Lynch was handling an indicator
on Uncle Nick Young's staff several
years ago, he was regarded as the best
inGthe business, and a man who feared
neither player, magnate nor fan. He
did his duty as he saw it When he
called man out he was out If he
called him safe he was safe. A ball
was ball ant a strike was a strike.
The wrath Of player, manager, owner
OF. bug could not make him change.
II he is as good president OF the
league as he was umpire, there need
be no fear Of anything but clean base
ball in the National league.
Lynch will not stand for the bad UNI
pfre any more than he will permit
abuse of the good ones. After he had
been elected he addressed the base.

The election Of Thomas ]. Lynch as
president of the National league seems
to have been happy solution of a
question which threatened to throw
the great baseball leagues into a tur-
MOL. Everybody seems satisfied with
the selection OF the former king of
umpires."
It was victory for the Hermann
Dreyfus faction of the league and q
matter OF Joy to Ban Johnson, presi-
dent OF the American league, who
worked to prevent the election of John
M. Ward. The Brush-Murphy clique
did everything in its power to elect
Ward and failed and in addition to
this consented to the retention of
John A. Heydler as secretary-treas-
urer. the position he filed before he
was elected to take the place made
vacant by the death of Harry Pulliam.
The magnates increased the salary for
Heydler, and he now will receive
nearly as much as he did in the Office
OF president
The National league did one thing,
however, that may yet mean trouble
with the American That was the
adoption of a schedule calling for 1853
games. The American had decided on
the 154 game schedule. and the &C.
ton Of the older organization will
mean a conflict in dates which may
cause trouble and keep the i'll feeling
that has been shown recently at the
breaking point.
Charles Comiskey, president Of the
