DE ORC TO DICTATE
To HIS CHALLENGERS
Going to San Francisco, Where He
Can Demand They Come to
Play for Title.
MAY SURPRISE HoRGAN
.,.,I a. r., W.sh;pr,o, usrald

Special 10 The Washington Herald.
New York. March 15.-Alfredo De oro
pocket billiard champion. has gone west
ward, his ultimate destination being San
Francisco. and challengers for the title,
he holds, may have to follow him TO
the Pacific Coast to compete for II. In
der the rules governing the championship
the champion can name as the place for
challenge match either the city in
which he resides or the one in which he
is "sojourning' at the time he accepts
a challenge. The particular rule which
applies was adopted by the contestants
in the tournament at Philadelphia last
April and the word "soiourning" was
agreed upon as a term sufficiently elastic
to cover all probable situa ations. At the
present time II suits De Oro's pleasure.
II does rot. however. satisfy Harry Hart,
the Brooklyn expert. who challenged the
winner of the recent match between Heus-
ton and De ORC, and he has withdrawn
the deposit supporting his challeng"
which he had the right to do because DE
ORC had not accepted and would not
have been Obliged to accept or forfeit
before March 10.
Nat Ward. who is backing Hart. said:
so far as ! am concerned. I was willing
to have De Oro followed to any place he
might name. Harry did not want to leave
New York. So there was nothing to do
but withdraw. i may be mistaken. but
believe Harry can beat De ORC or any
body else at the pocket game"
Edward Ralph. OF Hightstown. y. J.,
who finished first in the Philadelphia
and subsequently lost 10 De
ORC. is new eligible to play De Oro the
next championship match. It remains 10
he seen whether he is disposed to pursue
the champion. De Oro has until March
l. to accept Ralph's challenge. James
Mature, of Denver. has filed a challenge.
which is next in order after that of
Ralph. He probably will play De Orc
anywhere. for he is smarting under the
sensational defeat the Cuban admins
tered to him al Doyles the first week of
January.
De ORC may figure in pocket contests
at Kansas City, Denver. and Los Ang
eles, and challenge John w. HOrgan for
the three-cushion championship. That he
will not permit the Jordan Lambert
trophy to become the personal property
Of Horgan by March Il for lack Of a
challenge is said to be quite probable.

President Ebbetts, Owner Of the Brook
lyns, Has IN Odd Idea in This
Aceommodation.
,ecial to The Washington Herald.

Special to The Washington Herald.
New York. March l5.-The high cost of
baseball is receiving attention in Brook
lyn. for the present mainly by President
Charles H. Ebbetts. of the Brooklyn Ma
ton club but the matter is likely to con-
Germ the fans next summer. Ebbetts
has decided TO do away with practically
all of the 25-cent seats when he opens his
new baseball stadium. A clause in the
National League constitution provides for
Scent seats. but the number is not
stipulated. and II is understood that at
the Brooklyn grounds the number of these
will be reduced SO as to be practically neg
ligible.
Baseball is the public's luxury" de-
clares Ebbetts, 'and with the provision
of the finest accommodations II Is natural
that prices must go up all around"
In line with this idea OF luxury, it is an
nounced that a novelty of the Brooklyn
stadium will be an umbrella room,"
where the management will provide sew
eral thousand umbrellas, which will be
lcand to patrons on rainy days. Eb-
belts says he is willing to try this expert
ment, IL only to learn how many persons
will forget to bring the umbrellas back.
