Now comes a wild statement from
Pittsburg to the effect that a third big
league Is to be originated, which same
is backed by men in Pittsburg, Mil
waukee, Brooklyn, New York, Cincin-
natl, Louisville, Boston, Cleveland and
st. Louis. A manager OF park In
Pittsburg is said to be the leader.
Just what new league expects 10

major organizations securing the Uni
ted States and Canada for likely ball
players and paying from $4,000 to $10.-

Obstacles in the way of forming an
outlaw league loom up very large. A
baseball plant constructed along mod
ern lines will cost about S350,000 with
out the land upon which TO erect II.
Another 100000 would be required
to recruit team good enough TO draw
patrons away from the presen;
leagues.
1t is extremely doubtful II league
outside organized baseball ever could
secure enough ball players of Class a
calibre even 10 form eight teams. The
TriState league, backed by million
aires, the Pacific Coast, aided by men
with fat pocketbooks and situated In
an advantageous position from stand
point OF geography, could not stand
the pressure Both are now in the or
ganization that controls the national
sport The Pacific Coast came In with
in a few months after Billy Lange,
special emissary for the National Com
mission started TO work on it's players.
A third league could not draw pa
tronage unless IL provided better base
ball than the old ones do and any stu
dent of baseball knows the National
and American have cornered the best
players In the land regardless OF ex-
pense involved. Mere money will not
get hrst-class men, as the demand Is
far in excess of the supply.
There would be nothing to gain By
placing second clubs i'm Pittsburg, De-
troit and Cleveland, for instance, be-
cause he clubs located IN these cities
now have TO be we'll up in the race TO
be profitable to the owners. The fields
are not large enough. Chicago, New

ton, now supporting two clubs each,

SHOWER OF METEORs.

The steamship Dantzler which has
arrived at Galveston, Texas, from Tam
pica eports a strange experience with
the shower of mcteors which fell on
Friday night Captain Crawford and
crew declare that the largest of the
meteors. which was seen about 7:43 p.
m, fell in the gulf within about five
miles Of the vessel and a column OF
water shot up into the air fully 90 feet
high.
The ball of fire which burst and
emitted myriads of smaller particles OF
blazing metal, was in view nearly two
minutes in its course across the sky
from northwest to southeast. The sea,
which was brilliantly illuminated for
many miles, was calm during the pas
sage Of the meteors, but became great
ly agitated Immediately after, even
though the sky was clear.
The rough sea continued for four
hours after the fall of the meteOrs.
The ball of fire as Captain Crawford de-
scribed it, lighted the sky so that a
newspaper could have been read on the
deck OF the Dantzler. The crew was
awe stricken, although it was looking
for the phenomenon. During the night
five more meteors- were seen, but all
were small and had had the appearance
of falling stars, so often seen by mar
liners at sea.

A MuCH-MARRIED MAN.

DIR. Harry B. Keeler, dentist, VINO
was arrested in Detroit recently and
taken to Brooklyn to answer an indict-
ment charging him with the larceny OF
s12. 900 from Mrs. Wilhelmina Lynch,
widow, was formally arraigned yes
terday on a charge of bigamy. Ii all
the reports are true Keller has no less
than half a dozen wives. According to
the allegation made against him, ne
made matrimony a profitable business,
for nearly in every case, it is alleged,
he succeeded in wheedling money in
various amounts from his matrimonial
victims. 1t was expected that Mrs.
lynch, from whom it is charged he
got $12, 900 after marrying her, would
appear in court yesterday to press a
charge OF bigamy against him, but
Mrs. Lynch is in the country at present
and it was inconvenient for her to at
tend. 1t is said, however, she will
lodge complaint later. There appear
ed, however, Miss Helen Vosburgh, OF
Brooklyn, and Miss Dora Schoelles, OF
Sea Cliff, l.. l., both of whom made
affidavits that Keeler had wooed and
wed them. Miss Schoelles says that
Keeler married her on August % 1908,
and Miss Vosburgh declares Keeler
married her on November 10 1897.
Keeler, who was represented in court
by his lawyer, entered a plea of not
guilty and was sent back to Jail pend
ing the action OF the grand jury.

TAFT REPUprArEs SHERMAN.

President Taft practically repudlated
Vice President James S. Sherman yes
terday for the part the latter took in
bringing about the defeat Of Theodore
Roosevelt in the recent meeting of
the New York republican state COM
mittee.
In a letter sent from Beverly to
Lloyd G. Griscom, leader Of the in
surgent forces in the state warfare,
the president charges the yice-presi-
dent with having practised deceit and
acting unfairly in the negotiations
which preceded that historic meeting.
The president takes firm stand
with the progressive element in the
organization; announces that there is
no break between himself and Mr..
Roosevelt on the state issues and gives
the Sherman-Woodruff Barnes com
bination a swat which the insurgents
declare will prove fatal to the regular
leaders.
Mr.. Taft declares that he was mis-
represented in every particular by the
Old Guard leaders, who justified their
course in rejecting Mr.. Roosevelt for
the temporary chairmanship OF the
state convention by making it appear
that such a course bore the approval OF
the president.
1t was the presidents S first statement
regarding either his relations with the
recent president or his attitude toward
the two factions which are engaged in
a death struggle throughout the state.
The insurgents are jubilant and declare
that the presidents utterances mean
the complete elimination OF the regu-
lars, unless they make an unconditional
surrender.
Mr.. Griscom supplemented Mr., Taft'S
letter with statement Of his own, cal
ling on all progressive republicans in
the state TO unite in the fight against
the Old Guard. That the contest will
be carried into the primaries and
that there would be no quarter given
was stated emphatically by Mr.. Girls
com.
Emphasis was given in the three
statements-those Of Mr.. Taft, Mr..
Roosevelt and Mr.. Griscom-that all
references to the relations between the
president and former president were to
New York state alone.
While those relations may be strained
on such subjects as the enforcement OF
my policies" and the presidential
nomination OF 1919, it was made clear
that the president and Mr.. Roosevelt
agreed that the most urgent problem
now to be solved is the salvation OF
their party in the empire state. Their
interests are identical, in that they
both demand republican victory in New
York this fall. Further than that both
are silent.
Much OF the mystery which sur
rounded the state committees meeting
last week was cleared away by the
presidents communication.
A few moments after Mr.. Roosevelt
had been rejected, the announcement
was made semi-ofhcially by Mr.. Wood
ruff and his associates that the selec-
ton OF Mr.. Sherman had been entirely
approved by Mr.. Taft.
The insurgents were dumbfounded
by the announcement, and twas made
clear at Oyster Bay that Mr.. Roose-
welt was stung to the quick by what
anneared TO be his successors s action.

Mr.. Roosevelt, after reading with at
tention the full text Of President
Taft's letter, issued theIfollowing form
al statement:
Il am very glad to see President
Taft's statement, and am pleased with
it. Before the meeting Of the state
committee l had repeatedly expressed
to varions leaders not merely my will
ingness, but my desire to see them.
Since the meeting l have not thought
that there was any particular object in
meeting them, as. owing to their action,
the situation had become such as to
admit Of no compromise, and had
nothing to add to what I had already
said. | may add that l have not
changed my mind now. My posi-
ton is perfectly definite aud |
have nothing to change in it. l had
never desired the chairmanship, and
consented to have my name considered
on condition only that, in platform and
candidate alike, the party should en-
deavor to achieve success in the only
way worth trying; that is, by de-
serving, by making it evident that the
republican party of the state OF New
York intends in good faith to save the
interests of all the people OF the state
/ cannot speak definitely at the mo-
ment of my whole plans, because l 90
not know how far the situation Will be
changed by the presidents letter: and
SO 1 can say nothing more definite at
present. F"
