ON THE DIAMOND.

cincinnati, FeD. 9.-Local capital
lists who have interested themselves in
the new Federal league are confident
they will obtain franchise "a that
organization. Attorney Paul Connolly
who represents the men who have car
ried on negotiations with President
Gilmore, said there is $250,000 behind
the project with more readily accessi-
bic. He said there was heavy con-
tributor from Chattanooga and one
from New York, but most Of the non
ey was subscribed here. The club ha7
an option on Hippodrome park, not
for from the National leagua grounds.
Pittsburg, Pa, Feb. 9.-"Block the
Federal league by all means, but do
it without going to the courts" That
sums up the policy of President Bar
ney Dreyfuss of the Pittsbury club.
When Dreyfuss goes to New York
next week to attend the joint meet
ing of the National and American
leagues he will try to prevent the
taking of any legal action in the case
of bumpers. He does not want any
cases to reach the civil courts.
Chicago, Feb. 9.-There is a strong
possibility that the Federal league
today will invade New York City.
If the obstacles in the way of such
a venture are too great it is probable
the shift will be made to Cleveland
instead, or possibly to Cincinnati. One
thing is quite certain, the situation at
Toronto will be discussed by the club
owners and unless the magnates of
the Canadian city can show unexpected
strength and spirit they will have
only small chance of remaining in
the league.
On the other hand it has been said
be several of the Federal command
ers that men of means are ready and
eager to back club in New York and
it is rumored that an option has been
pbtained on the old Brooklyn grounds,
which would be used for games the
first season. The New York parties
are said to be willing to build new
plant and to have the site in their
hands now, but the new place would
not be constructed until the second
year.
Over in Cleveland the same interests
which formerly held the franchise
turned over to Toronto because no
available grounds could be secured
in Cleveland declare they now have a
suitable site for a park and are will
ing to take back the Federal league
franchise. In Cincinnati there is set
of men eager to get in, but it seems
the Federal magnates care less for
that territory than other spots.
Toronto seems to be the weak mem
Der of the new league The promoters
have not displayed enough spirit to
suit some of the more active men in
the league, and progress in the Ca
madam city has been slow. President
Gilmore has made two visits within
the last week, indicating there was
need of aid. Toronto was the last
club to obtain manager, and for that
reason was late in getting players.
The lack of time alone stands in
the way of transferring the franchise
to New York, where the league natu-
rally would desire to start off with
some gusto. However, if it were not
necessary to build plant there this
year, the thing could be accomplished.
1t is understood that several major
league players signed by the other
clubs could be turned over to New
York to help in making strong team.

FL PAsO, May 13-The capture of Tampico will mean the possibility of complications with foreign nations and also will mean the re-opening Of commercial and industrial pursuits throughout interior Mexico. according to a statement by Roberto PesQueira. Tenseness of the international sit- uation, Pesqueira said has been re- Heved because of the etry Of Con gales troops into Tampico, which gives absolute assurances of protec- tion to the oil wells and other prop erty, no matter by whom they were owned. He said it would obviate any friction and necessity of action by foreign nations
 The capture of Tampico. he said, not only gave the consuutonalista control of northern Mexico, by rail road connections, and assured prompt and efficient troop movements, but also as free port of entry gave them lconnection with markets of the world with centers of business In the in terior

 Questions Win Come UD With
 Powers in the Near Future.

WASHINGTON May 13.--Tampico, on the Mexican east coast, a seaport second in importance only to Vera Cruz, was captured by the constitu- tionalists today
 The federal garrison of several thousand men, after withstanding a three day bombardment was driven out of the city and is reported to have retreated by rail towards San Luis Potosi. hoping to reach Mexico City
 The constiutonalists at Juarez, however, say this road is held by their troops, and also the road to Monte rey. The federals only retreat in this event is in an overland march across the swamp lands
 The federals fought every inch of the way before retreaung The evac. ultion by the federal garrison began gt I2.59 this afternoon. according to a delayed wireless dispatch to the navy department from Mayo, the fed eral troops leaving by the railroad.
 That the rebels encountered a des- perate resistance in their final attack on Tampico and that they were com pelled to carry their fighting into the heart of the town, is indicated by Mayo's report
 Mayo reported that at 1 o'clock this afternoon. when it was reported the rebels had occupied Tampico. there was heavy rife firing in the plaza and the big gun fire continued.
 The federais are retreatlng by the railroad leading to San Luis Potosi. lt is assumed they hope to reach Pa chuca, the terminus of the railroad line which leads directly to Mexico City The railroad out of Tampico tC Monterey is held by the constitution alists

AS LEARNED AT VERA CRUZ.

VERA CRUZ. May 13.-The report ed fall of Tampico is the cause of much speculation here 1t was learned the constitutionalists made a determined attack on the port begin hing at 4 this morning The federal posts were driven in, and until noon desperate fighting continued.
 Few. if any, foreigners remain in Tampico. according to the latest re- ports. A general exodus began when the news spread that the rebels were preparing for a final assault.
 With the fall of Tampico hostilities on the gulf coast of Mexico come tc an end. at least for a time.
 The federals, are maintaining the armisuce. SO far as the Americans arc concerned. according to a note iron General Navarrete. published here Nowhere along the coast line, eXcep at Tampico, are there more than scat tered posts of federal and constitu tionalists. The logical movement fol the victors, from Tampico, will be t' join forces with those besieged a San Luis Potosi
 The constitutionalists first attacke' Tampico last December and the fight ing has been virtually continuou since. Twice they drove the fedora garrison into the town and seeme' on the verge of victory only to b shell by the gunboats and forced t retire.
 There Is much discussion as to th possible relations between this pori under American control and Tampic upder the consututionalists Yer Cruz depends largely on the Tampic region for fruit and other food SUI plies and the merchants foresee brisk business if the constitutionalist open the port to trade
