EXPRESS DISSATISFACTION
Railroad Ofiiciais Think That Pay for
Mall Carrying Should Be Larger.

Mall Carrying Should Be Larger.
ATLANTA. March 2o.--Railroad
otl1cials here are expressing deep re-
Kret and dissatisfaction at the fact
that the postoffice expenditures bill
lust passed by congress for the ensu-
ing postal year. fails once more to
allow the railroads additional COM
penaation for carrying the parcel post.
It will be recalled that in his re-
port In December the postmaster
general said that in view OF the pro-
disious growth OF the parcel post
the railroads, Of course. would be-
come entitled to additional compensa-
ton for this extra service imposed
upon them. The report added that
the department was engaged In gath
sring all statistical data necessary
for ascertaining q correct basis Tor
liking 4 Just, fair and adequate COM
pensAtion for the service rendered.
Then. on February nth. the rail-
roads COMMITTEES was advised by the
postofIice department that It had
made recommendation to congress
that on account OF the Increased
weight OF the malta du to this parcel
port, the postmaster general should
80 authorized to add to the compen-
sation Of the railroads not more than
one-half Of one per cent This rec
ommendation would have added only
1854. 900 to the mail pay of all the
railroads in the United States.
/ IN the opinion Of the officials here,
rongress took no action on the rec
omrnendation, thinking that such q
proposal was too trivial for considera-
sion. and preferrdng to await the rec
or,mendafion OF the joint committee
now investigating the whole subject.

Wet Grounds
Will Prevent
Games Today
HAVE BEEN INDEFI-
NITELY POSTPONED BY LOCAL
TEAMS.

Because OF the condition of Broad
Street park 1t Is hardly probable that
the game between Richmond college
and McGill Catholic union. scheduled
for this afternoon, will be played. AL
though the snow has been cleared
away, in all probability the ground will
be too wet to allow a game to be
staged in the lot.
All of the preparatory school games
are also expected TO be Indefinitely post
poned. John Marshall high school was
to have journeyed over to Petersburg
for game with the Cockade City
high school. while Richmond academy
was scheduled to meet the Louisa high
boys. The Mcclure University school
team was also booked to play Mas
sey Business college at Byrd park. All
of these games will be played off in the
near future.

GOVERNOR TENER
CHANGES ATTITUDE
NATIONAL LEAGUE HEAD HAS
ALTERED HIS OPINION
TOWARD FEDERlAI4S.

PTTTSBTRG. PA. March 20
Have organized baseball ana the Fed
eral invaders come TO an understand
ing?
Two Developments within the past
week would seem to indicate that such
is the case. And further partial cor
roboration can be found In the refusal
of Federal league magnates either to
affirm or deny the report and the SUD
den change Of heart that has come
over Governor John X. Tener, presi-
dent OF the National league. Always
since his election to the presidency
OF the National league an aynMed ops
ponent of tho baby league, President
Tener on numerous occasions has not
only ridiculed the organization. but
has declared that there was no de-
mand from the fans for q third league.
He has said publicly innumerable
times that tho Federal league could
not prosper: that 1t existed only on
paper, and that 1t would not last GU,
the present year.
Changes His View.
For some inexphcable reason Gov.
ernor Tener has suddenly altered his
opinion. AZ is shown by his talk with
Charles A. Hendrickson. a local city
official and State treasurer OF the
while In Harrisburg. held long con-
versation with the head OF the Nh
tional league.
Governor Tener is a brother mem
Der If the Independent Americans. -:
can SEQ no reason why the Federal
league should not lite." said Govern
Tenec. There is room for a .h'rd
league. and can't see why they
should not get along Take Pittsbnrg
~. Heku ~ In MI nf
in that city for two clubs.
1.-THE fans there will support two
teams. ana there Is no reason why the
Federal league club should not pros
per. Although the population Of
Philadelphia is larger than that OF
Pittsburg. the number OF baseball fans
does not exceed Pittsburg to such an
extent that the latter city cannot sup
port two teams as we'll as Philadel-
phta. 1t is the same in the other cities
where the teams will be forced To
compete. There will be plenty Of pa
tronage FOR all.
"The National league. I think, Is
well able to care for itself. and we
intend to do 50. And have no doubt
but what the rederals will be able to
take care of their interests"
Smiles, But Says Nothing.
When asked II there had been any
understanding reached between or
ganixed baseball and the Federal In.
vaders. Governor Tener smiled. but
said nothing. Neither would he dis
cuss the Kil.ifer case.
Another development which lends
strength to the peace report Is the
fact that President Gilmore. OF the
Federal league. has within the PAST
three days net only announced publicly
that no more raids would be MAIDS on
organized Baseball, but has instructed
all clubs in tho baby circuit to that
effect. This fact WINS admitted by q
high official Ct the local FederaIs to-
day, AL of which STRENGTHENS the be
lief that there Is something Of import-
ance brewing In the baseball world.

Romance"

Romance"
Charles Dillingham;, whose special
production OF Romance" is to be
given here on Tuesday and Wednes-
day and Wednesday matinee in the
Academy, says that never before in
managerial career covering more
than twenty years has he known a
more difficult task than he faced when
ne undertook to make up the cast for
this play. The characters call for
specialists in their acting; they call
Tor players who are versed in the art
OF modern realistic acting, and at the
same time know and can practice the
art OF what might be termed perfervid
romance.
Moreover. two OF the characters. al
though they speak throughout in clear
English. must possess intimate knowi-
edge OF the purest Italian. SO closely
are the types studied by the play
wright. One Of these characters is a
brilliant. beautiful young Italian sing
er, the toast Of fashionable New York,
and the idol of the patrons or grand
opera. The other is her old compan-
ion. herself an ex-singer and broken.
disappointed woman. not old. but
lacking the spark. although retaining
q keen memory of the triumphs that
were hers when she sang the great
roles Of, Verdi and the other Italian
maestros.
The chief mans part, also, must be
acted by Specialist specialist In
drawing fine distinctions. This part,
the Rev. Thomas. Armstrong, is a
stately old bishop in the epilogue and
the prologue: In acts I. II and III he
Is a handsome. perfervid. zeaious
young rector, caught In the ineffable
charm OF the brilliant young beautiful
Italian singer. against whom he strug-
giles In his effort to be true to his
vows as a clergyman and as a man
sworn to uphold to the letter the word
Of God.
