4 HORNETS NEST N WASHINGTON.

He said all this at q meeting in
Washington Wednesday, night. when
plans for the Identification of the Ma

and what he left uusaid was said by

American Federation of Arts. The lat

he was equally frank il his criticisms
of other statues. Eternal vigilance

merits of the sculptor n the deeds of

TALKS OF SCHEDULE
No Change Reported Yet,
Says President Lynch.
EBBETS SPEAKS HIS MIND
Brooklyn Manager Declares that
PittsburE and Cincinnati Have a
Right to Change Dates and Close
Season October ., if they Want 10.
King Case Hangs Fire.

New York, Feb. 2s.-President Thomas
u. Lynch. Of the National League said
to-day that he had not received an official
notice Of the reported changes in the
playing schedule by the Pittsburg and
Cincinnati clubs by which the champion
ship season VIII end on October instead
Of October Is. Lynch declined to discuss
the merits OF such changes, but said the
matter seemed open 10 some discussion.
&c. H. Ebbets, Of the brooklyn club, who
was chairman Of the schedule committee.
when asked for an opinion, said:
"Pittsburg and Cincinnati have a right
10 make these changes according TO the
leagues constitution, but If they have
done so it seems a trifle premature. IN
my opinion it would be better 10 alter
the schedule late in the season when the
winner Of the pennant seems assured. As
it IS, II Chicago for instance, should
win the league championship Pittsburg
and Cincinnati would appear in ridIcu-
lous light.
Il do not believe the worlds series
should be interfered with in any way, and
il NY gMu E4uU HHOuiU Elttsl TlfSlI WBAltl
readily agree to bring forward some of
my dates so that the Brooklyns could
begin the series with the American
League champions on or about October 10.
Looks Like Overconfldence
But to make such changes in the
schedule six months in advance looks like
overconfdence. Baseball is too uncer-
tain TO predict the winner OF a pennant
now. although possibly Pittsburg believes
the championship can be won again.
NO such tangie would have been pos
sible if the National League had adopted
a schedule right off the reel at last week s
meeting. because whether 16S or 154 games
had been scheduled, the American League
would have extended its season to October
70 Because Of the unfortunate tangle IN
our organization, the American League
felt obliged to announce its schedule first
Should Pittsburg or Cincinnati win the
the pennant under this Encouragement,
the worlds series. of course. would be-
gin before the other National League
clubs finished the schedule, which, per-
haps, would be unfortunate. but as the
changes are permissible under the rules
there is No way to prevent them"
Killing Case Discussed.
President Lynch returned from the Ma
tional Commission meeting, ar Cincin-
natl, to-day. He said he did not know
when the case Of Catcher King would be
acted upon. He said that more evidence
had been asked for. and that King and
the Chicago club had until next We'd
nesday to furnish it. Meanwhile. Ban

One great comfort 10 the Nationals

Dolly Gray has been wintering in Los

As a finale, McAleer said he sincerely
