BASEBALL L

New York. Feb. s.-The rules Of
baseball will be a bone of contention
when the major league committees
meet here next week. The chief ar
gument which has arisen thus far be-
tween Chairman Ward of the National
league and Connolly Of the American
league is about a play which occurred
in Boston last season. With one out
and q runner on first. the batsman hit
for q home run. The ball waa thrown
to the catcher. who touched out the
man who had evidently scored from
first base. The umpire called both
runners. out on the ground that the
runner from first had failed to touch
second base and that the batsman was
out for following the runner in who
had failed to touch one Of the bases.
Mr.. Ward and President Lynch de-
cided that the umpire was right in de-
claring' both runners out. MI. Con-
molly says the batsman should. be. al
lowed TO score. for he was in no way
responsible. for the. action Of the rum
ner ahead Of him In not touching the
bases In order.

quartette east, but at the last moment
we had to give up the idea"

not be by one rink. but by two or
three. The fact that that portion Of
tho new rink handed yer by the Pat
rick Brothers to the curriers' here was
only ready for curling a few weeks ago
is the main reason for Vancouver not
being represented at the big spiel. In
the club we have many old time
