MARQUETTE LEAGUE.
STAINING or THE cIrBs
TODAY'S GAME.
Naval Medicos vs.. Tenleytown.


Naval Medicos vs.. Tenleytown
St Stephens had an easy time defeat
ing the Company team in the Mar
quette League yesterday afternoon. simply
walking away with the contest, the score
at the end of the seventh inning being
% 10 L. 1t was one of the poorest ex-
hibitions seen in this league this year.
Norris who was on the firing line for
the Saints. twirled a good game, allow
ing the soldier boys but eight scattered
hits He was opposed by G. Braddock and
Mccoy, and they were both touched up
for a series of bingles, eighteen of them.
however, being made of Braddock
Schombert led at the bat for the Saints
connecting for three timely hits out Of
four times up. Schombert also paved q
good game at third for his team taking
eight difficult chances with but one slip
UP.
Ted" Sullivan Is still batting in his
old FORM and in yesterdays contest con-
nected for two hits. both of them being
two-baggers.
The game today ought to bring out a
large crowd. as Tenleytown and the
Medicos both have been playing good
ball. The Medicos haven't lost a game
for SO long that 1t would be q novelty to
see them defeated.

The next ball pitched McInness hit

Has No Use for Roger.

Il tried to show Lynch that KLEIN has
no use for me or the st. Louis club: that
lie gives Us the worst of it on every oc-
casion. However. Lynch would not listen
to anything like that. He simply would
hear the facts in the Cincinnati case. L
asked him what he would do II l proved
that KLEIN bore grudge against me and
he replied that he would not listen to
anything 1 had to say in that regard.
Lynch thinks too much of his UNI
pires. He seems to believe that they
can't go wrong. Then the fact that he
sent on KLEIN to umpire the present series
looks to me as If he was trying to defy
everybody. But that $50 fine sounds like
huge joke to me-.

Spokane has also more than a

LITTLE Rock, ARK. May 18th


The Arkansas General Assembly
is really only taking a recess for the
Reunion which is this week putting
Little Rock big on the map of the
universe. This was not the intention
of the lawmakers but their legis-
lative sins of omission forced Gov.
Donaghey to call them back in ex-
traordinary session after their adj
iournment sine die on Saturday,
May 13. 1t proved their unlucky
dav, for while tears of farewell were
being shed at either end of the new
capitol, the proclamation convening
the recalcitrant bodies was being
written in the Governors Office.
1t was not unexpected, in fact the
prediction had frequently been made
in these letters that in the event GER
tain laws were not passed there
would be an extra session. These
laws were not passed, and the re-
suit was inevitable. The legisla-
ture adjourned without making any
provision whatever for taking care
of the heavy appropriations that
had been made, or for revenues adj
equate for the running of the gen
eral government.
The members had been warned
time after time, by the press, by the
governor, and by their more far-see-
ing colleagues, but to no avail. The
state was left after a session of 124
da>s without single law vitally
aft cting the financial status of the
state, except in the heavy drains
made upon depleted resources.
Since the first Of the year the gov
ernment has been run on money bor-
rOwed from the future. Distress
calls were sent out to the tax col
lectors, and $4,000 has been adj
vanced on the years tax collections,
out of an estimated total of $780,
900. The support Of the Insane
ASYLUM alone would have exhausted
the balance.
The treasury deficit has long been
an accomplished fact, For ten days
there was not a cent in the treasury
available for any purpose. Even
the State Auditor presented war
rant at the treasury tor S3,75, and
it was turned down for lack of funds.
Then some sheriff paid in $4,000
and warrant-holders proceeded to
raid it. And so the floating balance
has been maintained by small sums
paid in from time to time.
How the extra session viii pro-
vide for the payment of its own ex-
penses is a problem for its financial
jugglers to determine-the State
Treasurer and the State auditor
do not know, and the Governor
has not told them, The fact cam
not be concealed that the states
finances are in a most deplorable
condition, at time when the state
was never more prosperous or re-
sourceful. But the states revenues
are ten years behind the expendi-
lures and the deficit can be explain
ed only as being the results of a con-
dition of mismanagement that may
not be traced to any particular
official.
The regular session was product
i've of more local legislation than
anything else, and the member who
could secure the passage Of the most
four-wire fence bills was considered

MILL VETO ALL PRESENT BILLS.

The governor will veto all the APP
preparation bills passed by the reg
ular session, giving free rein for the
extra session to begin all over again
and provide more economical bud
gets for the various institutions as
well as the state government. it
has been suggested that even the
agricultural schools may he closed
for the next two years 10 enable the
state to catch up and get some new
system of revenue started That
one item would save the state $50
900 a year 1t is expected that
there will be an enforced retrench-
ment wherever possible, in order to
"make the garment fit the cloth"
The financial problems are all that
will really amount to much, or
bring about a clash of contendlng
interests and opinions
There will be little cause OF conten-
sion over the questions OF the en-
abling act for the initiative and ref
erendum and of the abolition of the
convict lease system. The attorney
general contends that there is really
no convict lease system to abolish,
as the hiring of convicts under con-
tract cannot be so construed
ORGANIZATION AND LENGTH.
There is considerable speculation
as to the organization and length of
the session. Following the prece-
dent of the extra session of 1897,
the organization of the regular ses-
sion will hold during the extra ses-
sion. Some have contended how
ever, that Senator W. {. Rodgers
elected acknowledgement, will pre-
side over the Senate, and it is pos
sible that quo warranto proceedings
may be instituted in the Supreme
Court to determine definitely the
question.
Judge X F. Milwee announces that
he has been advised he will hold on
aS Speaker of the extra session, but
should it be held otherwise, he
would be ready to join the issue
with any one who desired the place,
and let the House say who should
serve. Should there be a complete
reorganization of both houses, it
would require several days to get
ready for work. In the event the
election of new Speaker should be
thrown upon the floor, it is prob
able that Representative kerwin OF
Jefferson would be the most tormid-
able opponent Of Judge Milwee.
As to the length Of the term. it is
unlimited so far as the subjects men
toned in the call are concerned, and
! they then have fifteen days for any
| business of their own Many have
predicted that the fourth of July
will see the lawmakers toiling over
the questions of state. Many have
said that their private affairs will
not permit them to attend the ses-
sion, but no one thinks enough will
stay at home to "break the quo
rum. "
Some of the more rapid ones have
even suggested that bills should be
introduced on each of the subjects
mentioned, tabled, and then ad-
iourn. But that will not meet the
requirements of q state already
cursed by legislative inactivity,
after the governor has vetoed all the
bills that have already been passed
for running the state and institu-
tions

the greatest Statesman-in his own
estimation. There were Ills bills
introduced 57S in the Senate and
$50 in the House, and of these $50
were enacted into law. Hundreds
were permitted to die on the calen-
dar, many of them undoubtedly
good laws, while other bills that
would have provided relief were
slaughtered.
SUBJECTS OF LEGISLATION.
The subjects specified in the COVER
nor's call to be considered at the ex-
traordinary session are:
To revise the revenue laws of the
state so as to provide sufficient rev.
enue to meet the expenses of the
state government and distribute the
buld of government and reduce
taxation.
To pass an act making effective
the constitutional amendment pro-
viding for the initiative and refer
endum
To pass a law abolishng the con-
vict lease system and providing for
the proper management and control
of the State Penitentiary.
To make appropriations to pay
balance due the state accountants in
the rate cases of S., 500 and to pay
actual court cost, not attorneys
fees SO, 800, for appealing the rate
cases to the Supreme Court of the
United States.
To make necessary provision TOR
transferring the Supreme Court and
State Treasurer's office to the new
capitol.
To make appropriations to main
tain the several departments of the
state government.
To made appropriations to sup
port the State Charitable and educa-
tional institutions, so that said ap-
preparations for the support of the
state government and all these in
stitutions may not exceed the avail
able revenues for these purposes.
A notable omission in this call is
the question of the completion of the
state capitol, which was defeated in
the closing days of the Senate by be-
ing talked to death" by Senator's
Covington and Logan. That bill,
an administration measure which
had passed the House, carried an
appropriation of $4,000 and pro-
vided that promissory notes might
be issued to exped'ate the work to
the full limit of the appropriation.
! The enemies of the bill fought it be-
cause ii piled up taxes on the peo-
pie. 1t is contended by some that
the removal of the only two depart
ments of the state government left
in the old state house will open up
nearly all of the discussion of capitol
questions Gov. Donaghev has de-
clined to discuss this phase of his
call
The Senate has shown itself OPP
posed to all the financial measures
so far proposed, especially the Brad
ham.Hurst bill which is their pet
aversion and some other remedy
must be offered to meet with the
approval Of that body. The Keel
bill which is almost as unpopular
with the members Of the House, is
not likely to meet with much favor.
Just what compromise measure will
be suggested is mtater of conjec-
ture.
