There were 80 railroad men on hand
at the school OF instruction held by the
| transportation bureau Of the Board OF
| Commerce In the board room, Wed
nesday night, to tell the Transports
ton managers and manufacturers bet.
, ter ways OF shipping freight out OF
Detroit. There were several hundred
shippers in attendance and they kept
the railroad men busy answering a
stream of questions. Arthur L.
Holmes, president OF the bureau, was
In charge, assisted by Robert III. Day,
manager of the bureau, and j. Z. IRA
ham, rate and classification expert
Delays, justihable and unjustihable
rates, demurrage, allowances. rout-
ings, questions on tank cars, through
and local rates and various other mat
tiers pertaining to the shipment OF
| freight were taken up on the chart
with the railroad men answering ques-
tions, giving information, and occa-
sionally telling the shippers OF their
own mistakes. The meeting was IN
structive both for the shippers anu
the railroad men, and much Is being
done by the transportation bureau IN
smoothing out Misunderstanding and
prejudices between railroad men and
shippers.
The Iron Trade Review OF Cleve-
land says OF the iron and steel trade:
Evidence OF slow but substantial i'm
provement in the iron and steel mar
kets continues to accumulate. This
Is shown In the gradual increase In
new orders. the hardening OF prices
with a few advances, and in increased
activity of mills and furnaces. The
United States steel Corporation is
now operating to about 60 per cent
of its furnace capacity. A decrease
OF pig.iron stocks was effected last
week.
The Board OF Commerce Is receiv-
| ing a fine response to the request ior
resolutions favoring reciprocity from
| the various trade organizations
throughout the state. A letter has
been received from Charles ID. Nor
ton, secretary to President Tart, ex'
pressing the thanks OF the president
for the support that the Detroit or
ganization is giving to the reciprocity
plan.

RULES FOR PIRATES
Manager Clarke Lays Down

Players.

HOT SPRINGS. Ark, April 3.-The lit
tie reference to the use Of alcoholic bev-
erages which accompanied all the con-
tracts mailed to members of the Pitts
burg base ball club last winter may not
have been regarded by their recipients as
especially significant, but in reality they
indicated a radical change in the policy
of the management with reference to
indulgence in Intoxicating drinks by play
ers who wear the Pirate uniform.
Heretofore Manager Fred Clarke has
pursued a liberal policy on the drink
question. He has been in accord with
President Dreyfuss in the determination
Of that official to keep 'lushers' of the
Buccaneers pay roll, regardless Of their
playing abilities. He has endeavored to
esta blish and maintain high club spirit,
putting the players upon their honor and
exercising only such restraint as he
deemed necessary upon their personal con-
duct and habits off the diamond. Moth
ing would please him better than to go
on Indefinitely trusting hts crew to alb
stain from excuses which are prejudicial
to their own interests and the interests
of the club.

he said last night. land some players.
blind to their own welfare, and SEEM
ingly Indifferent as to the clubs sue
cess, have abused the privileges we have
extended. Now we propose to try another
plan"
The new plan is absolute prohibition.
No player is to be permitted to take an
intoxicating drink during the season. To-
day there viii be a meeting In famous
room 1O1. at which Capt. Clarke will hand
each Pirate a printed copy Of the follow
ing rules. signed by himself and President
Dreyfuss:
II. The use Of intoxicating drinks of
any kind is absolutely prohibited
80. When the team is at home every
player must report at Forbes Field. In
uniform, not later than 1890 am. each
day, and must be on the field at least
one hour before game time, at home or
abroad.
80. All players must be in their rooms
for the night not later than midnight,
and should arise not later than am.
~. The smoking of cigarettes is abso-
lutely prohibited.
THE penalty for violation of any Of
the foregoing rules will be a fine, sus
pension, or both, according to the Of
fense."

necessary to get the money. il is not
haloing the game any to pull off such
fights.
Paris promises to become a mecca for
pugilists. but the sport can be killed there
as IL was in many quarters here IL takers
are to have their own way.
John Henry's record with the bat in
the exhibition games which have been
played in Atlanta bears out the fact
that this young man has improved
more than his most ardent admirers
could have hoped since last season.
With batting average OF .345, and
the fact that he leads all the other
players in the matter Of getting runs.
Henry does not seem to have anything
to fear from any Of his rivals for the
first base position. 1t is, of course.
hardly to be expected that the Amherst
boy can keep up his present clip in
the regular championship season. but
there is no question that he will show
enough strength with the bat to war
rant his retention on first base.
The chances are that in Henry and
Cunningham McAleer will have a pair
or hard-hitting youngsters who will
GO much TO keep his team in the race.
Cunny is gradually rounding into form.
and while his hitting to date has been
far below his standard. il is sure TO
improve. II it should happen that
Henry and Cunningham hit in the
neighborhood Of 800 all season the
ever before and il will make a big Diff
ference in their showing.
Reports from Atlanta to the effect that
Walter Johnson will accept the clubs
terms and sign a contract calling for
$500 for the coming season is plea sing
news and again bears out the fact that
johnson has good business head on him.
Johnson wanted $3.50. but for the sake
of thousand dollars he has no intention
OF throwing away over six thousand.
Even by making this concession johnson
will have the pleasure OF knowing that
he is the highest salaried pitcher In the
American League. and there is probably
but one twirler in the country who will
draw more pay. and that is the veteran
Mathewson. who has been the leading
pitcher Of the country for years
The gradual revival CT interest in wres-
Ting in this section must be viewed with
alarm. For a time there were indications
that the lovers of this sport had. to use

OF those who engage in these alleged corr
tests. But 1t seems that the scarcity or
sport of this kind has placed the follow
ers OF the wrestling game in the same
position as the inyeterate gambler who
played against brace game because il
was the only one in town. or is IL that the
theory that "a sucker is born every min

AMERICAN LEAGUE CAN BOAST

Boston and Detroit Are the Only Cities That
Are Unable to Take Care of
Immense Crowds.

The destruction of the ball park here

Shibe Park in Philadelphia was the pio-
neer in great base ball improvements in
the American League. Then came the fine
and up-to-date Cleveland park, although
il is somewhat smaller than the Phila-
delphia structure. Comiskey went a lit
tie farther than the Shibes, and his new
grounds opened last summer, are the
largest in base ball.

hopes some day to annex the heavy
weight title to his belt. He would also
like to take few lessons from some good
American teacher like Tommy Ryan
while over there.
Jim Sullivan. who won the British mid
dle-weight title by defeating Tom Thomas
some months ago. is having hard
time trying to keep out of matches
with the American middleweights.
Harry Lewis are all after Sulliven's
scalp. but he steadfastly refuses to
come out of his hole and accept a
match with any one of them. An of
fer Of $4,000 was made for a contest
between Sullivan and Clabby, but UP
to date the champion has not accepted.
The same holds good in the case of
McGoorty. All three Americans are
anxious to meet Sullivan, for if they
could win it would mean the annexing
in a position to claim the worlds
championship.
Jem kenrick, the clever little English
bantamweight. is back from the states
and getting plenty of offers for con-
return to the states in the fall and en-
Johnny Coulon at New Orleans.
Jimmy Britt, the former American
champion lightweight. has the bee
buzzing to get back into the game,
and 1T would not be surprising If the
genial Jeems should be matched in
the states before a great while. He
has been training with Clabby, Bron-
son and McGoorty at the Bull and
Bush. and has shown really splendid
form. His cleverness Is still with him
and from the way he is going now 1t
would not take a great while to nut
him in good condition.; besides being
quite a speechmaker and able to do a
vaudeville stunt. Jimmy is still able
to put up a fight that would be pleas
that several clubs In the states have
been trying to get Britt for some time
but he has always declined to consider
an offer. 1t is very probable that foxy
Jimmy Is trying himself out first to see
whether he would be able to go the
pace, and If he finds that he can If
Will not be surprising to hear of him
getting back into the roped arena.
