MORE NATIONAL LEAGUE
PLAYERS WERE FINED
ROwdyism Increased Last Year, Total
Offenders Punished Being
Ii9.

New York, Jan. 31-More National
league players were ordered from base
ball fields last year and more were
suspended than in any OF several pre-
vious years. Either because of an in
crease in rOwdyism or a more strin-
gent application of the rules by um-
pires, 119 men were banished from the
field and IS of them were suspended
by Presidents Heydler and Pulliam.
In 1908 the arbitrator ordered 81
players to the club houses and in 1907
ousted 112. The late Harry Pulliam
suspended 16 players in 1908 and Il
in 1907.
The Pittsburg team. which won the
pennant, had the best behaved set of
men last year. Only seven of its play
ers were banished and none was sus-
pended. There was a great improve
ment in the department of the New
York players, only II of them being
sent from the field and none of them
being disciplined by the National
leagues president.

LAND FOR UNEMPLOYED.
Arkansas Man Offers 1000 Acres to
Welfare Association.

ST. LOUIS, January 17.-GeorSe NJ.
Jackson of Piggott. Ark. yesterday an
nounced that he would give 1000 acres
of rich bottom lands near Piggott To un-
employed men. The announcement was
made at a meeting Of the Brotherhood
Welfare Association, Of which James
Eads How is president. The offer is
taken under advisement by the BROTH
erhood, and probably will be accepted.
The plan submitted by Jackson is that
400 unemployed men take ten acres each
without any conditions. Jackson. who 10
seventy-five years old and eccentric. is
working for the redistribution of all pub
lie lands along socialistic lines. He said
he intended to seek gifts of additional
land from wealthy men for disposal
among the unemployed.
Jackson's offer was heard by 300 men
officially known as unemployed. and more
commonly known as hoboes. who divided
their time between listening to the speak
err and consuming large quantities or
coffee and sandwiches, furnished by How.
Jackson says he has nine grandchildren.

property, as they had not earned II.

John Barrett's Tribute.

The following tribute was paid to Am
bassador Nabuco late this afternoon by
John Barrett, director of the International
bureau of American republics. shortly
after leaving the Nabuco home. where
he went to express his condolences.
The cause Of pan-Americanism and
the International bureau of American
pubics have lost a most distinguished
and earnest advocate and a sincere friend
in the death of Mr.. Joaquin Nabuco, the
Brazilian ambassador. Along with Elihu
Root, he had labored with all the strength
liant mental attachments to develop the
spirit of comfy, good will and solidarity
among the American nations.
Mr.. Nabuco was undoubtedly one of the
most profound scholars that has ever
represented a Latin-American country in
foreign lands. He had an exceptional
knowledge of international law and at
fairs He was the master of many differ
ent languages, and he was a brilliant
writer upon a great variety Of subjects
ranging from law to poetry
His influence in making Brazil and all
Latin America we'll and favorably known
throughout the United States was shown
by the great number Of invitations which
he received from universities, commercial
and literary organizations to deliver adj
dresses before them.
THE universities of Yale, Columbia and
Wisconsin conferred special degrees upon
him in recognition of his attachments in
diplomacy and scholarship. The esteem
in which he was held by all of his col
leagues and by those who came in con-
tact with him was equaled by the deep
love and affection felt for him by all Of
his personal friends. His name will go
down in history as one of the notable
men of pan-American progress and re-
lationship, and he will always be known
as one Of the foremost statesmen Of Bra
I'll and Latin America"
