WANT TO PLAY
TEAM FOR 90
Riyersides Take Up ChaI-
lenge Of South Ris ss invita-

Phewi This In big business. :
Manager Dave WiIentz, OF the Rfy.
ersides. stopped vt this office this
morning with the cheerful announce
ment that his team is willing TO ac-
cept the 800 challenge thrown In
his face over the phone the other
day by Manager Joseph Breiten-
moser, of the Sterling Al. A., Of
South River. wiientz says ne Will
post the coin with the Sporting Ed
itor of the EVENING NEWS on or
before March Is. If the South River
aggregation can not raise that
amount, the Riverside man states,
why his team is willing to play for
$50. ANY amount, they say, just so
they can get satisfaction. Dave"
wants to play the game on March 20.
Breitenmoser said over the tele-
phone that his team would play the
R~iversides for 500 on the court at
Columbia hail, New Brunswick, and
to. this suggestion Mr.. Wilentz
agrees. The Riversides were strong
for, Goodwill hall, this city, but
waive the privilege In the selection
of the hall and name the referees.
Van Mulchahey, of this city. and
Walter Riddle. of ~Sayreville, who
refereed in all important county
league games. are the moi chosen
by the local aggregation for this all
important contest. The "Rivies'' IA
vor the conditions that the losing
team pays all expenses, such as ref
erees, hall and other ~incidenfals.
while the winners knock down on
the wager and gate receipts. Sounds
like business!
Only county league men are eiig-
ibIe, Wilentz states. His team will
be- backed by Secretary Joseph Bill
lott, of the Auditorium, the South
End Bunch and the players, indi-
vidually. South River has met de-
feat twice this year at the hands of
the Riversides. They were downed
al South River by the score of 20.
to 16 and later Ia this city by the
narrow margin of one point. The
Sterlings cancelled Saturday nights
game with the Riversides. and the
announcement of a side bet on the
next contest follows this change in
schedule. Wilentz contends that
South River is afraid to meet his
team at this time.

Question Of Supervision.

In the forthcoming negotiations between
the government and the bankers OF the six
nations1'Russia and Japan will now par
ticipate-the matter OF control of finances
will be the most important topic. The
bankers will require some supervision and
control far more strict than anything that
China has yet experienced. The probable
result is that China will employ Consid-
cradle number Of advisers and expert as
sstants These men will not be placed at
the heads OF departments, but will be i'll
subordinate capacities. They will, how
ever, have considerable power over the
revenues Of the country. The extent Of
these powers will be the main point OF de-
bate in the ensuing negotiations.
In his speech to the Advisory Council
yesterday Yuan Shih-kai showed clearly
that he realizes the necessity for the en-
ployment of foreign advisers. He SAID that
the most important question OF reconstruc-
ton concerned finance. This led TO a dis
cussion Of the financial status Of the ma
ton, which was shown to be very bad.
Yuan declared that the salt monopoly
would be reformed after Western methods.
Thus, he said the revenue from this source
could be increased by 100000 taels. Re-
form in this direction has long been needed
1t has been estimated by foreign experts
that proper administration Of the salt tax
would increase the revenue threefold.
Finally Yuan made the direct statement
that China must now turn to foreigners FOR
expert advice and guidance. This state
uent becomes all the more interesting
when it is remembered that I'll" proposed
employment OF foreign money and foreign
assistance in the construction OF the rail-
WAYS was one Of the great causes OF the
evolution.
The new loan is TO be FOR about t6o,"o"".
The present tentative scheme Is to devote
s. per cent Of the proceeds to commercial.
industrial and financial matters and the re-
mainder 10 education. the army and the
navy. 4 vast sum will be used in the pay
ment Of troops and IN providing for the
tens OF thousands " soldiers who are
shortly to be- dismissed from the service.
The Organization OF the government even
il it is not yet fully accomplished, and tho
resumption Of the loan negotiations make
the prospect for the establishment OF a
bile government somewhat brighter. II
has been a dark, gloomy outlook for some
weeks past The road, however. Is long
one. and there remain many obstacles 10
be overcome.
