TWENTY YEARS ON THE GENDER PATH
By JOHN D. NOLAN.
S99l001G%A1sN-

Early in March 1892, MT. William Farrell of Taftville made me 8 propo- sstien to accompany him to Scotland where, he assured that we could win a. barrel of money, l accepted his Gf- fer. and we sailed on the Majestic abo,1t the middle of March. After a r-afi1er- rough voyage, we landed at Isver.seoi and the following day ar rived in Glasgow, where we received s hearty welcome from Mrs. John Burns, a sister of Mir. Farrell, We spent a very pleasant week in Glasgow and it's suburbs, and MT. Farrell, who was a fine walker. actually walked me to a standstill, the first day there. After doing about 30 miles. The sec end day we walked to Pa1seley and Flleralie. visiting the historic castle of Sir William Wallace, the Scottlsh hero and other places of interest.
 A few days later we went to Edin- burg. where we remained for E. week, visiting Edinburg Castle, which con tains many objects of interest includ- ing the crown and regaAa of Scot land HoIyrood Palace, the ancient res ideuce of Scotland's kings with its fine painting and ancient relics, and many other places of interest We al so paid a visit to Powd wderhan running grounds-one of the finest cinderpaths in Europe, where MT. Farrell entered me in 40 yards hand1cap-to be run off a few days later. l entered as J. Mccoy of Glasgow and received handicap of 20 yards. TEE profes- sional running season was nearly al end. only one race-a mile handicap remaining to be decided. This l al so entered. l decided to try to win the mile, but not to try in the 40. In this I made a great mistake, as the race was won by Cross of Edinburg from Scratch in 51 seconds. AS l had often run the distance in 52 1-2 sec onds I should have won in 50 sec onds with my start or twenty yards. However, I did not try for the final heat, and we went down to Gomock, on the Clyde; to train. Here I got in to fine shape but the handicapper spoiled our plans, by placing me on the scratch, having to concede up to 150 yards to good runners.
 We did not start in this race, but went down to Manchester, England, where I paid 6 visit to Ali Steele, a prominent sporting man. And han dicapper of the Manchester Pedestrian company.
 I ran a half mile trial for Mir. Steele, who told me hs would pay my expens- es and guarantee me 100 pounds ($500) if I would remain and run l nthe SS0 yards handicap the following October. felt. however, that I could do better by returning to America where tho professional games would soon begin. Mr. Steele introduced me to "Bill~ Lang. who far many years held the tive and one mile records of the world, and who was at that time 6T years of age. In my early years l loved to read of the fights and races of famous athletas, and in later times I always experienced the gfseatest pleasure in shaking the hand Of one ef these old heroes of the trREk eF rihg, As we ehatted in esfaaer of Mr. Steeie's T hat lac hardest race yea ever ran, AGE.

WAR DECLARED AGAINST FEDERALS
By Organized Ball Supported by Players Fraternity ton of Contract Means Three Years Suspension Waiver Rule to be Enforced

New York. Feb. 12.-Organized base ball today declared war on the Fed eral league. Led by the national com mission and supported by the Base officials of the organized branch Of the game decided to employ. as it's most effective weapon against the SO called outlaw organization, a provision in the national agreement against con- tract jumpers and reserve clause vio- lators
 This provision stipulates as pen alty for a player who violates his con tract, five years suspension from or ganized baseball, and for a player who breaks the reserve clause, three years on the suspended list.
 The appearance of the Baseball Players Fraternity as a party to this action against the new league came as a surprise to the Federa1s: though to the National and American league officers it was said 1t was not unex- pected
 It was intimated by a. member of the national commission that the apparent change of heart by the fraternity was the result of the action of the com mission and of league officials in rec ogniZing so many of the demands at the Cincinnati conference, at which a players committee. led by David L. F'ultz, president of the fraternity. ap- peared before the commission. In other words 1t is understood that or ganized baseball and the fraternity reached an agreement by which the players chief demands would be grant ed in return for the fraternity's sup port to organized baseball.
 One of these demands, left in abey- ance at the Cincinnati conference; was granted the players today. Hereafter, when a mapor league team drafts a player from a league of low classi- flcation and decides to turn him back, all the Intermediary league teams will have an opportunity to bid for his ser vices. This gives a player opportu- nifty for promotion. This so-called pro- motion waiver rule was passed by the commission year ago, but has never been enforced, but will be henceforth. It is understood that the Southern as- sociation will fight this rule.

EVERS WITH CUBS 12 YEARS. Had Quarrel with Murphy Last Season Pivot in Double Play Machine.

Differences between President Mur- phy Of the Chicago Nationals and Manager Johnny Evers have existed ever since the middle of last season The loss of the city series to the White Sox last fall was blamed on Evers by Murphy. who thought good baseball Judgment on the part Of the Cubs manager would have given them the winners end
 Evers' absence from the Cubs line up would make a rather serious hole at second base. particularly as Al Brid- we'll shortstop, has jumped to the t'ederals. Murphy has. however, a number of good young inffelders.
 O'Day actually began work as man ager for the Cubs last month. when he signed Jimmy Johnston, the outhelder, who was holding out over a difference in salary.
 Evers has been with the Clfbs about 12 years. He was the main cog in the old Cub machine in which the double play Tinker to Elvers to Chance" be- came famous. He was made manager last winter. soon after the release of Frank Chance was announced.
