 The sad information conveyed in the foregoing will come as a dis tinct shock to many people in both Sonora and Arizona, where MT. Stevens had lived many years and was known we'll and widely, having filled creditably many important places, and having endeared him. self to all with whom he came in contact.
 THE OASIS editor made the ac- quaintance of Mir. Stevens in 1893 at Mammoth, in Pinal county, where he was in charge of the com pany store. He had come to Ari- zona in the '80's and had held similar positions to the one at Mammoth at Mowry, Quljotoa and other points. In 1897 $ 3 he was at Washington Camp, in charge of the store there. In 1898 he was elected to the lower house of lhe Arizona legislature from Pinal county, and he was the author of the act which created Santa Cruz county. segregating it from Pima.
 In 1901 Mir. Stevens went to Sonora, taking charge of store in the Altar district. Thence he went to Zubiate where he conducted the company store. When that camp closed down in 1904 he located at La Colorado, taking charge of the American drug store, which busi- ness he bought year later and conducted upon his own account.
 MT. Stevens was a native Ot Philadelphia, where his mother still lives; and before coming to Arizona he was in business in Chicago some years. He was about 45 years of age.
 In his death the American colony at Minas Prietas and La Colorado has suffered severe loss, for he was one of the leading spirits in the colony, and was loved and ad- mired by all, beside which he en- joyed the respect and confidence oi the native population: while all over Arizona there are hundreds yea thousands-who will drop sil ent tears 10 his memory.

THE AMERICAN LEAGUE
CUTS OUT NATIONAL.
Will Continue to Exercise Privileges
And Observe Obligations Under Ma
tiona| Agreement, But Declines
Further Official intercourse.

New York, Dec. 12.-Official inter
course between the two major base
ball leagues ceased, this afternoon,
upon the adoption OF a resolution to
that effect by the American League,
except so far as the American League
deems itself obliged to deal with the
National League under the terms of
the National agreement and in the
words Of the resolution, aAs may be
requisite for the safeguarding of its
territorial and player rights Thomas
J. Lynch, president of the National
League. after reading the resolution
said that the only intercourse that
there ever had been between the
leagues came under this exemption.
There seemed To be considerable
doubt in President Lynch's mind as
to just what construction to place up
on the American Leagues action
There were a multitude of reports to
explain why it had been adopted One
had ii that the resolution was the
American Leagues answer to the
statement of August Hermann, chair
man of the National Commission,
given out, last night. in which Mr..
Hermann said that little Roadway
had been made IN the investigation
of the worlds series ticket scandal
Ban Johnson. president of the Ameri-
cans. said that the resolution spoke
for itself. 1t follows:
Resolved That the American
League will continue TO exercise its
privileges and observe its obligations
under the National agreement. but
will decline TO have further official in
tercourse with the National League
except SO far as may be requisite for
the safeguarding of its territorial and
player rights.
BE IT further resolved That the
American League will not be repre-
scented in another series for the cham

pionship of the world or in any other
inter-league event unless accorded
sole charge of the sale of tickets to
games played on it's grounds under
an agreement and with the under
standing that it shall not assume re-
sponsibility for the conduct of the
business department of games at the
park of the other contesting club"
What does il mean?" asked Pres
iGent Lynch, after reading it over
twice. The American League never
had any official intercourses with the
National League outside of their COM
mittees including the schedule com
mittee-which meet as the National
agreement requires them to- So far as
worlds series tickets are concerned,
the National Commission for the first
time gave the clubs, this year, the full
right to sell tickets to the worlds Sc
ries games in their respective cities
What was the result? Every newspa-
per man in the country knows of the
scandal which followed. The Philadef-
phia club, under the ruling of the
commission, had the control of the
ticket sale in their city, yet the COM
mission has found that the scalpers
were busy, there, too.
Now. as to the last few lines OF
the resolution, | can't understand how
the American League could ever as
sumo the responsibility for the con-
duct of the business department or
any other department of the National
League or any of its clubs on their
home grounds"
There was a long discussion of the
resolution before the American League
adopted it. F. ]. Farrell, of the New
York club introduced it, and c. A.
Comiskey, of the White Sox, seconded
it. It was adopted by unanimous vote
and copies signed by Ban johnson
