GREATEST 81
PLAY | ~
EVER SAWL2.
AS TOLD TO
Hush S.f.lllertOn
Champion hltter and Base Runner Of
Anson's Chicago Colts, and Who
ls Regarded as One of the
Greatest Players.
BY w. A. C"sIc BILL") LANCE.

For quickness of thinking, clever
ness and everything else, ! believe
Jimmy Ryan made The greatest PLAY L
ever saw He won game for us by
the exercise of these qualities, and
the play showed how quickly the mind,
of that great old-timer worked.
The play came in the fourteenth or
fifteenth inning of game between
Chicago and Boston on the West Side
grounds, either in 1894 or 1895, I've
forgotten which. Youll have to for
give me for not remembering exactly.
but I've been out Of the game so long
the details have escaped me, and vet
never have forgotten the play, nor
ever will.
Those who remember when Ryan
played left field and was in center,
will recall how we used TO pass the
ball across the field to one another
after catch. Which ever one caught
fly ball at the end OF an inning
would throw as hard as possible TO
| the other II got to be habit, and 1t
was this habit that Ryan used to win
the game.
| We were having hard battle
! There was a lot of hard hitting and
much scoring, but when we got into
extra innings the pitchers frightened
ND and we settled down to fight it
out. forgot just how many innings
we went, but in the first of the final
inning we scored run. | don't recall
how we happened to be batting first
perhaps superstition or to change the
luck. Anyhow we batted first and
counted q run. Boston came in, and
with two out and two on bases the
batter--I have forgotten who he was
but Il fingers in my mind that 1t was
Long-hit the ball hard.
Now darkness had been coming OF
for two innings and 1t really was tot
dark to play the last inning at all
believe we got CUR run because one
, of the Boston outfelders couldn't SEE

place In Paris. when all the lawyers
walked out, 80 to speak A law or
ordonnance was issued aid promul

ordering all lawyers to sign their
pleadings and to state the amount
they were charging their clients for
their services. This was done so
that the lawyers could be properly and

by the non-enforcement Of the ordon-

CANAL LOBBY TACTICS AT TRENTON.

cTa HE Fielder concurrent resolution that was whisked through
the Senate providing for a commission to wait upon the rep
resentatives of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company viii
the view to some arrangement to settle the matter of the canal
basin at Jersey City and thus clear the way for the Fielder canal
bill, now held in leash in the Senate, is IN impudent proposition.
The Chancery Court has just decided that the fee of the basin
belongs to the State and that the canal lessee is only a tenant.
There has been as yet no appeal from that decision, but the Fielder
resolution brazenly assumes that the question of ownership of the
basin remains open and that the decision of the New Jersey Chan
to offer TO sell to the State for some stipulated sum the States
own property. But it is provided in the resolution that the com
mission shall report to the present Legislature. The obvious intent
is to soap the ways for the canal bill to pass. The Legislative ss-
sion is now in its eleventh week and will doubtless adjourn at the
close of the thirteenth week. In this limited time it $ required for
representatives of the State TO meet the wellposted lawyers of the
Lehigh Valley Railroad Company and enter into an agreement that
shall settle a matter of supreme importance to the State. In any
conference under such circumstances the State would be at an
enormous disadvantage. 1t took the Chancery Court nearly four
years to come TO a decision in regard to the canal basin, and Sen
ator Fielder wants a State commission and the Lehigh Valley Rail
road Company lawyers to decide the whole canal question in a
week. There is an immense amount Of gall in that proposition.
The Fielder resolution can be amended in the House to provide for
a report at the next session of the Legislature. Meanwhile the
StreitwOlf concurrent resolution for a suit by the attorney general
Tor the forfeiture of the canal charter should be passed. There is
no other course for the Legislature consistent with duty and honor
and for the best interests of the State.

MISUSE OF THE EXECUTIVE PATRONAGE.

N7 ONTRARY to a usage in the office of the Governor of New
" Jersey that has been departed from only once, and al that
time under some public criticism, all the important executive
appointments at the State capital are yet TO be made, although the
session is near its close, this week being the eleventh of the session.
1t is remarked as a coincidence tina. during all this period the
Record Geran primary election bill, upon which the Governor has
staked his political future, has been pending, with uncertain chances
of enactment. The potency of official rewards in State legislation
has often been demonstrated. 1t is well known that all the real
rower that the Governor Yields lies in his prerOgative of appoint
ment. In the last year of his term, when his patronage is all dis
pensed, the New Jersey governor is an uninfuenhal figure. 1t ls
asked why executive precedents have been violated in the matter OF
the appointments. The answer is naturally sought in the known
objects of the executive, for the course adopted could not be with
out motive. Logically, the answer pointed straight to tie Geran bill
and the evidence was found in the otherwise inexplicable attitude OF
members of the Legislature on that bill. If, as has been so often
demonstrated, the personal power of the governor lies in his APP
pointments, here is where that power is revealed. 1t was a refer
ence by the Democratic State chairman to the current talk about
this misuse of the official patronage that caused Governor Wilson to
lose his temper in a private conference with the State chairman
Yesterday. But if logical deductions and current talk are mistaken,
if legislative votes have not been Influenced by promises or hopes
Of official favors for Legislators or their friends, the fact will appear
when the appointments are Forthcoming. 1t will all come out in
the wash" Naturally, public attention will be riveted upon the
appointments, when they are made, to understand the why and
wherefore.
