KNOTTY PROBLEMS I
FOR COMMISSION
Must Straighten Out Iangles
Due to Federal League
Deserters.
BROOKLYN HAS PROTEST

The National Commission Will nolo
a special meeting this week TO con-
slider the legal complications ina.
have arisen between organized base
ball and the new Federal Leagate,,
be decided by Governor Tener, VINO
is said to have many pressing ques-
tons to dispose of at Harrisburg.
It is probable that the commission
will decide on some action against
the Chicago Federals in the tinker
case. There is also the question OF
the famous Tinker deal with Brook
iyn to come to final settlement.
Brooklyn feels that inasmuch az
Tinker did not report to the Brook'
lyn Club that 1t is not responsible
to Cincinnati for the amount 1t prom.
ised to pay for him. 1t is expected
that Brooklyn will be paid back any
money by Cincinnati which Is stu
due in the deal.

therefore, the prospects Of a fight.
Red evidently feels that he's getting
to be a big boy, and he talks with
the confidence of a champion. He
says he and Donley would get good
money" in New Haven. and he also
said that he didn't mind giving away
few pounds in0weight. AS Mickey
is considered to be pretty clever
boy around here, for Red Mack to be
willing to give him weight makes 1t
appear as If Red is some fellow. But,
anyway, Mack wants to fight, and
Mickey can have a battle up in New
Haven whenever he gets ready to do
business, so we have it from Mr..
Mack.

The Westinghouse baseball team
writes me a protest against the use of
its name by another organization.
The Westinghouse boys are right
when they say it Is small potatoes"
to appropriate their name. "A letter
explaining the situation follows:
w HOtlce III the papers reference TO
a baseball team under the name of
Westinghouse. We wish to advise
you that from our records We do not
find that any of these mentioned are
employees of the Westinghouse Com
pany, and, from what we can learn,
have no authority whatever to-use the
name. The Westinghouse Company
is supporting only one team, COM
posed of players who are employees of
the Newark works of the company.
All honor and glory we wish to re-
serve for this team, and expect TO
have a reputation worthy of the name.
As a favor to us, we would ask you
not to pay any attention to news under
the Westinghouse name unless fur
nished you under the stationery of
our company and signed by the COR
responding secretary or either the
board of managers or the advisory
board of the Westinghouse Employees
Athletic Association. Yours truly,
THE BOARD OF MANAGERS.
&c. II. Lindsay, corresponding secre-
tary."

Tn Restrain Killifer.

At a conference in Indianapolis,
Ind, last night, between James A:
Gilmore, president of the Federal
League and Edward Z. Gates, coun-
ssel for the organization, it was de-
cided to file application to the United
States Court at once for a permanent
Injunction to restrain William Kill
fer. of the Philadelphia National
League Club, from playing baseball
with that team. The petition will be
filed before Judge Sessions, at Grand
Rapids, Mich, and it was said If the
restraining order was refused the
case would be appealed.
The Federal Leagues petition for
temporary injunction to prevent
Killifer from playing with any team
except the Chicago Federals, recently,
was denied by Judge Sessions.

A fighter gets back at his former
manager in this fashion;
J. p. N:
In answer to the challenge which I
understand was hurled at me through
your column by the self-styled Danny
Morgan, of Newark, who manages a
couple of preliminary boys, I should
think 1t advisable for him to consider
the trouble he is leading those young
boxers into. This same party handled
me at one time and claimed no one
could defeat me at my weight. But
for my own betterment gave him the
gate" after which his opinion Of me
changed. ] found that he did not
know how to handle boxers who de-
sired to make a future in the ring.
He almost ruined me and will do the
same thing to others he is handling
at the present time. l am in better
condition than ever and open to meet
any lightweight in the business. Ben
Douglass is my manager.

The second team of the Giants had
no trouble in defeating the Paterson
team of the Atlantic League at Pat
erson yesterday afternoon in the
opening game of the season, by the
score of 8 to 2.
The game was played in the pres
ence of small crowd. Schauer and
Palmero, the Cuban, were on the
mound for the Giants. Both pitched
a good brand of ball. Thorpe led
the attack at bat. with four hits out
of five times up, among them being
a triple and two doubles. The Pat
ersonians were poor on the bases,
several men being caught off the
bags.

RED CROSS READY.
Prepared to Send Into Field Corps
of Nearly 5000 Skilled Workers.

Memphis. Tenn, May 14.-How the
Red Cross organization would get into
operation should this country go into
actual war with Mexico; the attempt
OF the organization at flood control in
China with a comparison Of flood con-
ditions in the valleys Of the Huai

at a meeting Of the American Red
Cross today by Ernest P. Bicknell, ma
tional director. The session, which is
held in connection with the National
Conference on Charities and Correc-
tions. was presided over by Gov.
George w. Hays Of Arkansas. Mr..
Bicknell declared the Red Cross could
send into the field corps Of nearly
5000 trained nurses, doctors and la
borers and transportation columns.
1T is evident that war with Mex
leo can mean only one thing to the
Mexican leaders-their utter destruc-
tion," said Mr.. Bricknell. president
Wilson seems anxious to avoid war

can be foolhardy enough to want it,"

| We left you under the big tent lis

night all the old boys were invited
to the grand ball and some went and
danced the old Virginia reel and old
Joe Hooker. with these fair daugh-
ters and granddaughters of the Con-
federacy. The old guards were
pretty we'll done up and our captain
| decided not to risk our old bones
and old eyes any more for this day,
SO we retreated in good order
to our rest. Next day we were
up and out inspecting the beauties
OF this city and getting ready for our
auto ride Of a thousand autos. We
went to the South Carolina head
quarters and found our old friend
Ben, who, after consultation with
General somebody, directed us to go
north blocks turn to the left and
stating he was going to hunt up the
autos and sponsors and maids Of hon
or to ride with us. The old guard
brushed up and tried to look young
and stood like the boy on the burning
deck. Well we stood and we stood,
as the hours past and finally all the
stood and waited oders until we
finally concluded Bill was captured
with his fair cargo and the ship sank,
and thus clinging to the floating
stars and timbers we drifted on to
Main Street just as the head Of the
grand army of the gray appeared. We
felt decidedly left. but better after the
autos began to pass with the old boys
surrounded by the SMILING beauties
OF all over our South land, throwing
kisses and smiles at us, and such a
grand sight was worth all the trouble
and expense of our trip-over a thou
sand autos in line. Some Of the old
Vets would march, headed by a girl Of
white hair and many yars, but like
the daughters of 81 she had the
spirit to carry her through. Another
command was headed by an old Vet
and young lady, all marching and
stepping to the tune Of Dixie. Then
came remnants of Forests cavalry
on foot, with the real old Confeder-
ate gray jeans and jackets making
them look more like Confederate SOL
diers than any thing I saw here.

done to entertain the old soldiers,
certainly enough to make their old
hearts glad to see the places they
hold in the hearts Of the people Of
this Southland who were not born
when the storm Of war swept over
our loved country. Old and young
men and boys just took these old fell
lows and tried to make them happy
I have been over 81 States, and
have never seen anything to COM
pare to the kindness and open hearted
ness as has been shown here, and if
anything can be O. success, the re-
union Of the Confederate Veterans in

Of my trip to South Florida at Miami
