National Body Has Never Had Any
thing Like it Before, and no
Decision Has Been
Reached.

Justice Says League Will Accept
Cash Proposition-Meetins May
Be Held in GaIesbure to
Decide.

BURLINGTON, Ia. Nov. 17.-At an
early hour this morning The Hawk
Eye received the following message
which explains itself:
Chicago H., Nov. 16, 1910
Hawk-Eye, Burlington, la.
Quincy's request for release not al
lowed M. E. JUSTICE.
A little later word was received
over the Hawk-Eye's leased wire that
Kinsella, of the Springfield Three-l
league club, was authority for the
statement and that the Quincy mat
ter was still under advisement.
1t is not likely. however, that Presi-
dent Justice would send out the state
ment he does unless it were well-found-
ed. He, as chief representative of the
Central Association, would be most
likely to have more accurate informa-
ton on the subject than Kinsella.
CHICAGO, Nov 17.-Quincy's case
has been heard by the arbitration
committee, but no report has been
made on it.
President NJ E. Justice says the
Central Association will accept a cash
proposition and will call meeting
of the league at Galesburg, Nov. 80,
If the arbitration committee refers the
matter back, which may be done.
Quincy's case was poser for the
national board involving question
never before brought before it in this
manner.
1t may be day or two more before
a decision Is reached.

board not to reduce the classification
of leagues which may have fallen be-
low the population requirements. Mr..
Jierney admitted that his league was
shy about $4,000 persons from the
population required for class q

He finally secured the adoption of a
resolution recommending to the board
that it use every effort to secure the
consent of the national commission
to allow leagues whose classification
is in jeopardy to retain their present
rating. j. Cal Ewing, member of the

Galesburg papers have presented
figures to show that Quincy has re-
ceived more in gate receipts from
Galesburg than Galesburg received
from Quincy.
The Grand Leader second team I'M.
der Capt Kiser defeated st. Mary's
under Captain Echle on st. Marys
alleys last night by margin of 1870
piEs. The winners shot total of
22SS. There is considerable interest
taken il. this league at the present
time.
Harry Howell, pitcher on the ST.
Louis Browns, has declared that the
time for renewing his contract has ex-
PRED and that he is now free
agent, He stated however, that he
had not signed to take up the smanag-
ership Of the Seattle club. as has been
reported. Baseball men say Howell
will do so.
Should Quincy be liberated from the
balls strength will be lost. AS natur-
al rival across the river Quincy has
done mucn for Hannibal, one of the
younger members of the league. This
is best shown in the attendance
when the clubs play each other. Often
as many as five hundred people went
from Hannibal to Quincy, or from
Quincy to Hannibal on Sunday to see
the game.
! Last week The Gate City, occasion
ed by Bert Hough's visit to Keokuk,
gave out a story that Quincy has an
angel who would finance team in
that city with Hough as manager. The
! foundation of this story seems to be.

pulled down last season. In conclusion

If the Central Association holds a
meeting in Galesburg on November
so for the purpose of accepting a cash
/ offer from Quincy, as is minated in
press dispatches today from Chicago,
4 it is likely that the committee to ad-
] just the guarantee of Galesburg and
Monmouth can do its work at about
I the same time. thus disposing of the
4 big winters work all in day
Should the Central Association be
4 willing to accept cash offer from
! Quincy and the latter be willing to
make one, then it would be up to the
league to take in a new member, and
4 the choice would very likely fall on
Muscatine.
1t is believed that, with the salary
limit adjusted next season, nearly
4 all of the clubs will make an effort &c
have playing managers. OF course Ut
tymwa will retain Ned Egan, but II
nearly all of the other cities leaders
4 will be secured who can fill n on the
team. thus minimizing expenses. 1t is
believed that in league OF the Cen

She has unlimited resources in tonal
shadinss and all styles of music offer
fertile opportunity FOR her art. The

nobility of diction and taste, especially
the beautifully mezzo voce and legato
in the Strauss number and the very
brilliant "Er lists" by Wolf, then to
strike dramatic note of deepest trag
edy in the "Erlllonig' is Il proof of
her many sided dramatic powers. The
difficult, My Heart at Thy Sweet
Voice was given with passionate
soulful pathos and temperamcntal in
