terday. "All of the players want it

SHOW THEIR HAND.
A Springfield correspondent to the
Chicago Tribune, commenting upon
the proposition to arbitrate says:
The southern magnates OF the Three
Eye league probably will not file a
motion to dissolve the pending injunc-
ton in the Sangamon county court
for a week or ten days. They are
hopeful that peace will reign and that
President Hofer will withdraw the re
straining order. This, of course, will
come only if some of the northern
magnates decide 10 vote with the
south crowd for a 10-club circuit Wa
terloo Is expected to change front and
aid Springfield, Bloomington and Dan
vile"
ARE WELL SATISFIED.
Decatur Herald: Harry Hofer and
the southern Three-Eye leaguers are
well satisfied with the situation now.
The fact that the injunction if made
permanent by the courts will give the
opposition no loop holes. is regarded
as the basis of their hopes. And they
have so played the game that the
northerners now suffer by the delay,
whereas before every delay helped
Waterloo. and tended to defeat the
southern cause.
What would happen If Quin O'Briei
should represent the league and venture
into Springfield court? For the peace
of the city, the Judge should set the
hearing while Kinsella was absent.

IS NO DECEPTION
Southern Three-Eye Papers
Show Real Attitude of
Quincy's Advisers.
IN A BIG GAME OF BLUFF
Now Virtually Outlaws and Have No
Intention of Being Left in
This Position.

II any proof were needed to con-
vince the baseball tribunals that the
southern Three-Eye clubs have encour-
aged Quincy to go into the courts and
thus have themselves entoined, the
stun the southern papers are printing
now would serve the purpose. Kinsel-
la says there will be a 19-club league
or none and the Decatur Herald as
serts that all the southern magnates
are well pleased with the situation as
it stands.
The truth is that the game is one of
bluff. The southerners think they are
now IN position to control the situa-
ton and they are relying upon one of
the northern clubs to break to their
side before long, In which they are
doomed to disappointment In va
rious ways they have overdone their
parts and have Indicated plainly that
the present situation was brought
about only in the hope that 1t would
serve to coerce the opposition into
accepting the loss of even balance in
the circuit
Nobody here believes for a moment
that the southern clubs have any no
ton Of breaking up the league this
season and thus virtually sacrificing
everything they have invested In
baseball. In encouraging Quincy to
secure an injun ction they have step
ped across the line and are now ar
rayed against organized baseball.
Should the league dissolve while they
are In their present position they
would be doomed 20 a period OF retri-
button. The north is now in right
with both the national commission
and the national board. while the
south Is Gin bad" and very we'll

KINSELLA TALKS
Springfield Register: Ten clubs or
nothing doing"
This is the meat of the statement
given out yesterday afternoon by r.
F. Kinsella. president of the Spring
held club Of the Three-Eye league.
There will be 10 clubs in the league
this season. such as the national COM
mission recommended, or there will be
no Three-Eye league games in Spring
field Kinsella will stand for this to
the last ditch Bloomington will stand
for it. Peoria will stand for 1t Dan
vile will stand for it There's the
solid south" against the united north
with Davenport, Rock Island, and Du-
buque fighting the battle of Waterloo.
Dark as the situation for Three-Eye
league baseball In Springfield may
look, there Is a silver lining to the
cloud and the dope comes from a very
reliable source that the north is not as
solid as the south and that there will
be division of the ranks of the north
erners in a few short days, and that
Quincy and Decatur will be admitted

must be large enough for several
things. 1t must be large enough to
cover all the court costs, and 1t must
be sufficiently large TO indemnify the
winning side against financial loss. AS
an example, Hofer ties up the league
for 10 days. There is a financial loss
TO every team in the league that is
delayed by the action, and should Ho-
fer lose the case, the natural forfeiture
of the bond, or such portion of it as
is necessary to cover the loss sustain
ed by the clubs, must follow"

p The Quincy Journal prepares its
kreaders for what is coming by reprint
Ting the following from the Burlington
EHawk-Eye:
: That famous Chicago meeting, at
(which q restraining order was served
on President Tearney as an Individual,
sthe ThreeEye league as corpora
stion and the four southern members
.t-of the corporation individually, has,
as might have been expected, caused
a number Of comments TO be made by
the press. And what might further
tbe expected, no two authorities can
see It in the same light. Some say
s1hat the move was sEcker, and 9TH
ers say It was the drowning man and
; the straw act and that is about as far
as the logic OF the situation is carried
However, q simmering down of the
3facts appears 10 foster the presump-
stion that the injunction secured by
Quincy will be dissolved just about as
ssoon as the case is called In court
land for this reason: Judge Creigh-
fton's court is a court of record. The
tThree-Eye league Is a corporation, as
is every ball club composing the
Three-Eye league, and the power OF
the corporation, as in any other cor
poration, is vested in a legislative
body-the directors. A legislative
body can do all sorts of things when
not in session, legally speaking, and
these said acts are not binding. But
this said legislative body, to make its
action effective, must act officially and
as a corporation, and there must be a
record made of it's proceedings. In
other words, the minutes must show
the disposition of all matters that
come before the body for considera-
ton, just as judges docket or jour
nal must show the disposition of the
cases that are called before him.
NEVER ASKED MEMBERSHIP.
There is no record on the Three |
Eye register that has TO do with the |
soliciting of Quincy, either by the
league or by any of the members OF
the league, nor are there any prom
ises recorded. A number OF other con- |
tentions and claims have been raised, |

COMMODITY RATE
REDUCED THIRD
IMPORTANT DECISIONS FROM
INTERSTATE COMMERCE. COM
MISSION THAT MATERIALLY
AFFECT THE WELFARE OF
NEVADA PEOPLE.

Decisions OF lar TedChlh6 III
~portance were announced by the in
terstate commission the
past week. They affect directly all
freight rates between the Atlantic
ocean and the Pacific coast. Partic-
ularly they effect the rates in the
territory lying between Denver and
Pacific coast points.
The rates to these inter-mountain
territory heretofore have been made
without any definite relation to the
water competitive rates to the Pa
eific coast. the extent of the discrimi-
nation being entirely optional with
the carriers. By the opinion handed
down the commission has attempt
ed to arrive at a definite re-
lation of the rates to the non-com-
petitive points as compared with
those to the coast and has laid down
the extent to which the rates to in
terror points may exceed the coast
rates.
In all the cases decided the car
riers are given until October Is to
file tariffs with the commission con-
structed in accordance with the views
set forth in the opinions. The net
result of the decisions will be to
give lower rates on all westbound
transcontinental traffic to cities in
the inter-Rocky mountain territory.
To all intents and purposes the back
haul rates from Pacific coast termi-
mails to cities in the Rocky mountain
territory are wiped out and the
service rendered by the carriers will
be paid by shippers substantially on
a strict Interpretation of the long
and short haul provision of the exist
ing law.
The commission holds in the So
called Reno cast that traffic original
ing at Chicago and in Chicago terri
tory moving under commodity rates
may have a rate Z per cent higher to
intermediate points than hat impos-
ed on freight originating in Chicago
and Chicago territory destined to the
Pacific coast terminals. From Buff
falo-Pittsburg territory the rate may
rise above those demanded from the
same points to Pacific coast terminals
to the extent of Is per cent; while
from New York and trunk line terri
tory the rate charged shall not ex-
coed 23 per cent over Pacific coast
terminal rates.
These are the first decisions an
nounced by the commission in which
a definite principle in respect of the
long and short haul provision is laid
down. While the opinions fully
recognize the influence of water
competition to a marked extent they
draw a line upon indiscriminate
market" competition.
The effect of the decisions will be
to notify the carriers that they will
be allowed to meet water competition
to a reasonable extent, but that the
location of markets hereafter will be
