BASEBALL MAGNATES
OF Big Minor League Hold
Meeting.
(American News Service)


Chicago, Jan. 12.-In view of the agi-
tation over the Redistribution prob
lem and the abolition of the draft sys-
tenn and the persistent talk that the
American association means to enter
the major league field unless both
questions are settled to its satisfaction
unusual interest naturally attaches to
the annual meeting of the association
which went into session behind closed
doors at the congress hotel today.
These and other questions along the
same line probably will be thoroughly
discussed at the meeting. though it is
not likely that any definite action will
be decided upon at this time in view
of the fact that the agreement be-
tween the American association and
the nationl organization will not ex-
pire until next fall.
The business announced for trans
action at the meeting is wholly Of a
routine character. Several minor
changes in the constitution are to be
discussed and acted upon and a pres
ident for the ensuing year will be cho.
sen. While there has been some talk
Of opposition to President Chivington
II is not believed any serious effort
will be made to defeat him for re-elec
ton.

BOARD RECEIVES
A REM0NSTRANCE
Objection Made to S. 4th St.
Improvement - Other
Matters Considered.

The board OF works today consider
ed a remonstrance to an improvement
of South Fourth street, which the
board of works proposes to improve
with cement walks, curb and gutter.
1t is believed this improvement will
be ordered without being taken to
council. 1t has been found there are
21 bona fide demonstrators out of
about so property holders. There must
be majority to defeat the improve
ment 1t is understood today that
there will be a remonstrance filed
against the improvement of South
Fifth street. with cement walks, curb
and gutter However. it is believed
the demonstrators will not get more
than ten signers out of the fifty or
more property owners.
A Factory Improvement.
The Starr Piano company filed pc
tition to construct cement sidewalks
curb and gutter. and grading and gray
cling of the road way on South A
street between First and Second
street. The company wishes to as
sumo all expense connected with the
improvement, which will cost approx
mately 500. as it desires two salts
factory entrances to the grounds OF
the company.
The c. & O. railroad company will
be required to construct a new trestle
over South A street in case the i'm
provement is made, and this company
notified the board this morning tha
If possible such improvement woult
be made before spring. Probably ;
concrete trestle will be constructed.
A petition for an improvement
which If made will prove one of thu
most important of the year, that o
macadamizing West Fifth street from
the National Road to the indianapolis
division of the Pennsylvania railroad
and the construction of cement side
walks on both sides of the street, wa
filed with the board this morning. A
majority of property owners have al
fixed their names to the petition. tn
improvement is almost certain to g,
through. After being improved Yves
Fifth will probably be one of the mos
beautiful residence streets in Rich
mond.

Great Railway Strike Threat
ems the Existence of the
New Republic.
(American News Service)

Lisbon, Jan 12-President Braga
of the republic of Portugal took per-
sonal charge Of the strike situation to-
day, in an attempt to prevent the ma
tional labor troubles from passing be-
yond a crisis to political climax. He
called Senior Comes, minister of mar
inc; Senior Antonio Comes, minister
of public works; Senior Costa, min
lister of justice, and other members of
the cabinet and personally entered
into negotiations with the leaders of
the strikers.
With the whole of the republic stag
mated and demoralized and with busi-
ness and traffic at a standstill from
the strike of railroad employees. Presi-
dent Braga ordered trains on state
owned railroads manned by soldiers
for the transportation of troops
Despite the orders of the strike lead
ers that property shall not be destroy
ed, rioting broke out in this city, in
Oporto and at other points.
There was a semblance of martial
law in this city with cavalry rein
forcing the municipal guard and can
non planted before some of the public
buildings. All gatherings of strikers
were dispersed by troops and wher
the men refused to obey they were
either driven indoors or arrested.
! Every railroad in the republic was
tied up today with the strikers rein
forced by the dockmen. warehousemer
and machinists and artisans from rail
road shops.
Orders were issued by President
Braga for garrison troops to reinforce
the municipal guard in communities
where additional soldiers could not be
sent by rail.

Deserved Tribute.

The Endorsement by the New York
American OF President Taft's tribute
to Secretary Knox for his work in
bringing to final success the reciproc-
ity treaty with Canada, and the addi-
ton thereto Of praise for the secre-
tary's success I'm broadening the
sphere of international arbitration, is
a striking appreciation.
The American is a paper whose
character and aims develop a natural
antagonism for a public man OF Knox's
conservatism and untheatrical meth.
DDS. That antagonism has taken
the form Of slurs IL not accusations
in the past But the secretarys
achievements I'm these two lines Of
international work have been so sig
nal as to elicit frank praise from the
paper which is wont to expend on
his class more Of the ammunition OF
denunciation than OF laudation.
The force of the fact lies I'm it's
truth. Secretary Knox has kept him
self less in the public eye than almost
any other member OF the Taft cabinet
but what he has accomplished 10
part Of the worlds progress.
