MEETING Of BAStbALL MACNATES LOOKS LIKE
 TAIL0R'S FASHION SHOW


 You'lI have to hand it to~ Gene Me Cam. The old scout has them all beaten off the blocks when it comes to dolling himself out. Gene appear ed in Hartford yesterday in his latest regalia. astonishing the poor natives the warmth of his presence. Here is what the Hartford Courant man says of Manager Gene and the other man. agers. in particular as to how they appeared at the ga ,hering:
 As Manager C,arkin- with the able assistance of Mana gers Dowd and Con nery. revolutionizeds s4 the playing strength of the Connecticut League by engaging superior material. H. Eugene McCann. the Bridgeport nasnate, must he given credit for revolutioniz- ing the styles of the managers and players The gathering of the base ball. men in this city yesterday looked like a meeting of Wall Street brokers. Before MT. McCann entered the league. the managers attended meet ings in all kinds of old clothes. but everything is changed now and every body was dOlled up veSterda~ One magnate. who was rigged up like a lay figure in a tailor shop. said he decided to fix himself uo so that if McCsnn cane up in any fancy clothes he would make him look like a bum.

Hartford. Jan. 1S.-After very harmonious meeting at the Hotel
 Garde yesterday afternoon the direc- tors of the Connecticut League of
 Baseball Clubs held a reception in the Bugs Raymond Association No. ], which is sort of offshOot of the Kind Kids Club, every member agreeing not to say an unkind word about another member during the playing season. The league disposed of considerable business and paved the way towards the opening of the 1911 season, which. like the circus, will be bigger and greater than ever. Each director put in bid for ms favorite playing dates and Sid Chal- lenger, the oldest living schedule mak- CT, will build his book from the Ideas advanced in the meeting. When he makes draft of the schedule, Pres1- dent Tracy will call another meeting of the directors to pass upon It.
 The committee on credentials seat ed the following at the meeting: Secretary-Treasurer James H. O'Rourke of Bridgeport, Director James H. Clarkin of Hartford, Direc- tor Dan O'Neil of New Britain, D1rec- tor John A. Zeller of Springfield, D1- rector Fred A. Winkler of Holyoke. Director Gilbert Edwards of North ampton, Director George M. Cameron of New Haven, Director H. Eugene McCann of Bridgeport. Director liar old Durant of Waterbury, Chief John E. Kennedy of Bristol and Sidney w.. Challenger of Bridgeport.
 TIfc first business was the report of the special committee on the Wa terbury middle. President Tracy and Directors Cameron and Winkler- They made a unanimous report denying the claims of Mickey F'inn for the pos session of Players Hoey, Mcdonald, Tucl1ey, Lee, Smith and Hoover. The report said that Finn had violated every agreement that he had made with the Waterbury club and that the players belong to the club and not to Finn.
 The committee appointed at the annual meeting in Waterbury on base ball reported that they had made contract with the Victor Sporting Goods Company of Springfield to sup ply the league with baseballs for five years Heretofore, the name of the president of the league has been stamped upon each box containing new ball. It was said that some of the managers put inferior and cheap baseball into the properly stamped boxes and got away with 1t. It was voted that the name of the president should be stamped upon each ball hereafter and it will be the duty of the umpires to look for the name of the president on every ball DeIOre ne throws it out.
 The league elected an official scorer for each club. Heretofore, they have been selected by the managers and they were not always chosen for their

 The league meeting of the baseball | magnates did not begin until 2:30 o'clock and this afforded considerable
 time for the early arrivals to spin their hot air yarns and talk about the wonders who are on their way to burn the league up. Zeller of Spring field, Winkler of Holyoke and Ed wards of Northampton, known as the Massa chusetts delegation, arrived at noon and had luncheon together in the grill room of the hotel MT. Zeli- CT solemnly promised that he would not bring up at the meeting his peren- nial scheme of changing the name of the league in order to bring the Sa- cred Goldfish State more prominently before the public. Manager Zeller is going to be on the job early this sea- son and it was said that his early ap- pearance into the civilized regions was to put something over on his rivals.
 Colonel Edwards of Northampton said he felt fine after being buried in the snow all winter. Colonel Ed wards said a horrible mistake had been made by the newspapers, for he had no idea of going to Bristol. He said he was well pleased with North ampton and while he was not making
 much money there, the prospects were always good. President Tracy said that it would cost s30O0 to make a ball park out of the Bristol grounds any such sum.
 Fred Winkler of Holyoke had the finest dope of all the Massachusetts delegation. He has eighteen baseball players coming from Panama. He particularly specified that noN Cubans were in the bunch and that all of the players were either Dutch or Irish, as he considers they make the best baseball players. The men from Pan- anna have been playing ball there for the benefit of the ditch diggers and will retain but few members of last years team but one of them will be Gaiser. the pitcher.
 MT. Winkler is the first Connecticut League magnate to buy players in wholesale lots and he thinks that out of the eighteen from Panama he can select a good nine.

Chief Kennedy will call a meeting of the umps the day before the season opens, giving them careful instructions re- garding their duties. It is hoped that he will tip Ebner off that none of his funny business will be tolerated this coming season.
 Sid Challenger. who was appointed official scorer for this city and who is also the official scorer for the league, will begin the making out of his schedule for the coming season, this week Challenger was at the meeting yesterday securing a line on the days the managers desired best for their clubs. Challenger has; been drafting schedules for the league ever since the little circuit started busi- ness.

RUSSIAN LION PINS AMERICAN CHAMP
 0RDEMAN

Minneapolis, Jan. 1S-Completely exhausted by the terrific strain Hen ry Ordeman American wrestling champion, was defeated, this morning in finish wrestling match, by George Hackenschmidt, the Russian Lion. The first fall came after two hours, 37 1-2 minutes of the most desperate struggling. while Ordeman, worn out, lost the second fall in 1-2 minutes The bout did not conclude until 2 o'clock
 Hackenschnidt won only because he had the greater endurance. Twice he picked Ordeman up bodily and slam med him to the mat but each time the latter rolled away. The third time proved too much and Ordeman's shou1- ders were pinned to the mat. After a 10 minute intermission the second fall was wrestled but Ordeman was "all in'' and fell readily.
