AMERICAN LEAGUE
 WILL STAND PAT

Chicago, February II The American at it's meeting which begins here tomor- TOW regardless of the action of the Ma tona1 league in New York, according to statement made by President Ban John son today.
 We will stick to the old length of the schedule during 1Slo' said President Johnson. we will adopt 154 games whether the National league decides upon fs4 or 1S games The schedule has worked well for several years and I see no reason why it should not be retained. The season is long erough and will have enorhle dou5le-headers without adding any more games to the list.
 According to an agreement between the two major leagues the National will an nounce it's schedule one day before the ether circuit.
 There will be no argument on the Amer ican league dates, as the schedule already drawn up will be adopted unanimously, according to the present indications. The principal business to come before the meeting toraorrow will be the adoption of the new ten-year agreement. The pres ent agreement under which the Ameri- can league exists will expire in Novem- per of this year.
 The American league was in existence at the beginning of 1900 but the agree ment was not adopted until later in the year Apparently there will be no ob- jections to the continuance of the circuit for another decade all the magnates are well satisfied with the present oondi- tons.
 Tine adoption will be only a matter of form. II is expected there will be several trades and deals al tine maGnates of the three leagues win be here tomorrow The Americar association will hold It's schedule meeting tomorrow, while the Western league will adopt it's 1910 dates "Wednesday,

New York, February 14.-James R. Keene. the millionaire horseman and exchange member, took the stand today to explain his part in the Columbus and Rocking Coal and Iron pool. which col lapsed last month and took three stock exchange houses down with it. The hear ing is being held before Thomas Alex ander, United States commissioner in bankruptcy, on application of Irving L. Ernst, receiver for the failed firm, J. M Fiske & Co.,. to determine the assets of the firm.
 MT. Keene admitted that he was man. sser of the pool and named his occupa- ton as stocks and speculation, I sup pose" His testimony was of interest in showing the business methods of the man commonly conceded to be one of the most. if not the most. expert manipulator of stocks known to Wall street, and presum- ably chosen manager of the Hooking pool for that reason, he said
 The early questions of counsel for the receiver brought oyt that there were two Hooking pools. the first of which was dis solved last March at Mir. Keene's instance. T thought the stock was too high,' he explained, land l told then-that Is tho nlembers-so. I sold out the stock and delivered it to them. The members thought they knew better than I and they went on.
 When sold out in that pool thought I had made good stroke. l made a pile of money, but some of the members of the pool were 50 greedy that they bought at any price and you could not keep them away" he said.
 He estimated the profits of the first at $25o, ,000 but would not venture to ap- praise his own profits. Accordingly these greedy members. he testified, formed a second pool in July, of which Mir. Keene said he again consented to assume the management
 How many shares he held in it himself counsel could not ascertain. MT. Keene had no papers. he said, to show who were the members of the pool. An exact record of the brokerage transactions oi the pool was kept by his book president in the pool book, but he never looked al books" and could not explain tabulations of sales and purchases which he himself produced he said.
 Holdings of the pool were largest, Inc admitted, immediately before it's collapse The hearing will be continued tomorrow

HISTORIC BREAK

The sale of the Durango Herald by
George n. and S. w. Raymond. after
an ownership of 23 years. calls to the
mind of the editor of the Grand Val
ley News a good story the Durango
printers used to relate of a rich "bull'
made by the Raymonds at the begin
ming of their newspaper career. Meth
cr of them had had any experience as
writer. and Dave Day, who was
running a newspaper at that time,
took advantage of their lack of ex-
perience and poked all kinds of fun
at them. frequently becoming a trifle
wicked in his criticisms. The Ray
monds, in time. began to smart un-
der Days biting sarcasm, and they
determined to sQucich their enemy at
"one fell swoop.' They got their
heads together, so the story goes, and
produced a whitening editorial that
afforded the irrepressible Day a
source of fiendish JOY for weeks after
wards. They began that editorial
with these words:
Dave Day is like a green bay tree,
roaming around at night seeking
whom he might devour."
