Customs Reforms in Paris.

Paris Letter to the London Daily Telegraph.
Travellers owe grateful thanks to NJ.
Cookery, the minister Of finance, for the
effort which he Is now making to free
them from unnecessary trouble at the
custom house. He has addressed a note
worthy letter to the director general of
the customs department, in which he
draws his attention to the hardships to
which passengers are SO often exposed
after long and trying journeys. and sug-
gests a complete modification of an OBJ
solete system which has been in vogue
for half a century. This change should
not be confined to land frontiers but
should be extended to seaports as well.
NJ. Cookery. indeed, draws particular at
tenti0n to England. and the director gen.
eral Is requested to ascertain whether,
with q view to facilitating relations be-
tween two countries which have so much
intercourse as France and England, the
examination might not be undertaken
during the passage or on embarkation-

acknowledgment, and the day does not

Districts Delegate to Foot Ball Con
ference Exnreases His Views

Thomas Kirby. foot ball expert and
sporting writer. sent as envoy extraordi-
nary to the recent foot ball meeting OF
the intercollegiate Athletic Association at
New York, to express the views of the
District on the game. has reported to
Commissioner Mcfarland His letter is
as follows:
I'm regard to the deliberations of the
Intercollegiate Athletic Association, ia
which l went as a delegate appointed by
you, 1 am pleased to report that the
views OF the District were the ones which
ruled at the meeting. it being the unani-
nous opinion that radical changes mus,
be made at once in the foot ball rules.
THE various suggestions will be con.
stdered by the national ruels committee
and feel justified in saying that the
alterations will insure a saner and safer
game In the future. In many respects
the representation was admirable-the
foot ball enthusiasts having combined
with their notions the calmer judgment OF
college presidents and professors who
wanted to see the game flourish under
proper restrictions.
ION behalf of the foot ball men of the
District, l want to thank you for your
consideration at the most critical time

Took Up Murray Case.

The national commission heard the case
of Manager Billy Murray of the Quak-
ers. 1t referred to the claim for salary
Of SIS, 600 instead of 5000. as offered him,
to the National League directors. The
commission said that the case would first
have to be decided by the directors, and
that af,er it had been heard there and
a decision given it could then be brought
to the commission for settlement.
Mr.. Hermann said that he had been
under the impression that it had been
settled by the league directors. How
ever, this action will in no wise hurt the
Murray claim. The directors will have
to award him a sum: then, if he is dis
satisfied, he can bring the case back and
be awarded either another sum or the
same by the commission. Murray seemed
satisfied with this statement from the
commission and stated that he will inn
mediately file the claim with the board
Of directors.
A dinner was given last night to Presi-
dent Lynch Of the National League at the
sinton, where many OF the most famous
men in base ball in this country gathered
and made merry. Mr.. Lynch says the
league is going to have less trouble with
umpires next year than 1t ever had be-
fore.
