DEADLOCK OVER
 ELECTION OF CREW
 CAPTAIN AT YALE

New Haven. March 1S-Bayne Den egre of the Yale crew yesterday tend cred his resignation as captain at a special meeting of the wearers of the varsity aY,'s called for that purpose. A vote was then taken to elect a sue cessor, and of the four who cast bal lots each one received one, thereby leaving the matter deadIocked. The four included A. D. Sturtevant, A. McLane, J. R. Sheldon and Seth Low, JF. It is possible that a compromise
 may be effected within a few days that will be the means of placing Low who is favored for the position, in charge of affairs
 Should the situation continue dead locked efforts will be made to have Denegre reconsider his action and re- main nominal head of the Yale navy, although he will not be in active com petition this year. Denegre left for New York last night to discuss the situation with the Yale rowing com nittee.

STARTING
 TO BAT HARD IN
 GIANTS PRACTICE

Marlin, Tex, March 1s.3The Giants had a St. Patrick's Day parade around the bases yesterday afternoon during their annual encounter with the Mar lin High school team for the benefit of St Patrick's church here and the fond admirers of the high school nine. The score was g to&0, the Marlin boys get ting only two hits off Jeff Tesreau and Poll Perritt.
 About 300 visitors paid admission to Emerson Park and rooted for the high school boys to make a run. By throw ing the ball around as high school boys will the Marlin lads accumulated almost as many errors as the Giants did hits.
 sHonus Lobert, who has not been hit ting much in practice. broke loose yes terday and collected three singles. Bob Bescher, who returned to outfe1d duty, got a three-bagger and a. single.
 The soreness due to the anti-typhoid serum treatment Is passing away, but each man still must take two more shots of the serum before leaving here. pr. Allen, the club physician, reported that Pitcher Bill Ritter was improving steadily, but it may be sew eral days before he can be moved back to his room at the hotel.

SOUTHERN
 LEAGUE MAY
 JOIN OUTLAWS

Browns wells, Miss, March 1S.-s Dick Carroll. business manager of the Brookfeds. arrived back in camp yes-5 terday. and although he refused to state what business took him to New Orleans, it was learned from man who was present at the conference that Carroll and four maEnates of the Southern League discussed the prcpo-s sition of that league afdliating with the Feds. After the conference WAS over. the writer's informant says. all of the four club Presidents present declared they were In favor of east ing their lot with the Federal League.
 If this is so the vote of but one more nagnate is needed to put through the deal The four who. favored the proposition said that the necessary svpay1ng of one magnate could almost be considered a foregone conclusion, so anxious was the league for the merger
 Inasnuch as President Gilmore and Robert B. Ward are expected here to- day or Friday, 1t is believed that Car roll arranged for meeting between these two powers of the Federal Lea que and the Southern League mag mates for some time next week.

JENNINGS DECLARES WAR
 ON FEDERALS

Gulfport,l/ Miss, March 1s.-War's crimson banner has been nailed to the mast by Manager Jennings, and any one who admires the Federal league or gives it aid and comfort need not ex- pect anything of the Tigers.
 Hughte is going to carry the fight to the limit, too, and will cut off his vis- iting list any college or independent club which books games with the Gil-
 more circuits representatives. The other day Jennings read in the paper that the Tulane University nine had booked, or intended to book, a game with the Brooklyn Federals, who train at Browns wells, Miss.
 That settles Tulane as far as we are concerned said the jungle leader. 1T suppose that the collegians would like to play the Tigers this spring, but we will not have anything to do with them if they are mussing around the Federa,ls. People. will either have to be for us or against us ,and they can- not expect to remain on friendly terms with organized ball and with the inde- pendents, too.''

Many Baseball Men After Franchises
ILBANE IS
 WINNER OVER
 KID WILLIAMS

Philadelphia, March 18-JohnnT Kilbanes featherweight champion of the, world, celebrated St. Patrick's Day at the Olympia A. A. here last night by handing out a most artistic trimming to the bantam-Weight title holder, Kid Williams. For six rounds the 122 pound KiIbane peppered Will Hams with every known punch and a. few others that are not in the fistio library.
 Never for 8 second was Williams in the running. He was like rank selling platter in a stake race He tried, to be sure, but his every of- fering wast either feet short or wild as the March wind that blew up Broad street.
 In the sixth spasm, Kilbane came near scoring a knockout. Wicked 1efts and rights, some shot straight. others hooks, others swings and still others uppercuts, crashed with tons of power on Williams jaws. He was hardly able to struggle to his corner as the final gong sounded. That bell was the sweetest music his Danish ears ever listened to.
 Kilbane is a small edition of Mike Gibbons. What he doesn't know He is as clever as Atte1l was when mixer as "Terrible Terry McGovern. He has a corking left Jab and hooks it with a, heap of force also. His right he hooks within a six-inch mar gin, and his straight rigft never faiI- ed last night to send Williams spin ming across the ring and against the rOneS

JIMMY SNYDER MEETS
 DICK GILL AT ACORNS

The feature bout of this evenings entertainment at the club rooms of the Acorn A. c. on Kossuth street will be between Dick Gill, Bill A1cGuire's fast coming protege, and Young Jim my Snyder of Brennan's stable. The bout will be of four rounds duration and action is expected to be furnish ed in every round. Excitement is at so high a pitch over on the East Side that great deal of money has been placed on the outcome, which will be decided by a newspaper decision. Gill is a, corker, this being proved in his last encounter with Teddy Hubbs before the same club and a. large fol- lowing is expected from the North End. Slim Brennan is confident that Young Jimmy Snyder will put over a K. O. on Gill.
 The entertainment will consist of five bouts of four rounds duration and selections by singers from vari- GUS cabarets. The first bout will be staged at SIS and the show will con c1ude about 10:3O.

GALLANT GLAD TO GET ANOTHER CHANGE BEFORE
 LOCAL BOXING PUBLIC

Take a glance at the following statement from Alex Mclean, who is manager of Gilbert Gallant, matched to box Walter Mohr here March 25.
 Just a line to let you know that Gallant and myself are very glad to get another chance to show in your city and show the fans that the Robideau affair was nothing but a nuke, but wish we were to meet him there on the 18th. instead of Mohr Of course you know we don't mean to say that Moar is not a worthy op- po1ent for he is but we would sooner have Robideau. But Jack Me Guigan knows just as well as we do that his man could never repeat the trick so therefore our chances of getting him again for a while are not very good.
 Gallant is training now and will be in great shape for this battle on the 25th as he knows that Mohr is a tough man to beat, and he will be ready to put up the battle of his life he is down to 138 pounds now and will be well within the required weight the day of the contest, which is I36 at D. m. So you can assure the fans that whether Gallant wins -or loses they will get a good run for their money.

YANKEES SECURE
 CLEVER SOUTHPAW
 IN RECRUIT WAHLE

Savannah, Ga, March fs-Clar- ence Wahle may never be a Rube Waddel or even Reb Russell, but he is likely to prove a mighty handy young man for Wild Bill Donovan even if he lasts no longer than to have his transportation paid back to Brooklyn.
 The able seaman made his bow. as a professional player and did mighty well. indeed. For fifteen minutes Clarence served to the regulars in batting practice, and though he did not extend himself at any time, he proved a match for the s1uggers of the Yankees.
 Wahless curves should win him the right to thorough trial if he has the other essentials with which to back it up once he cuItivates. the hook to it's best proportions. No righthander here can show sharper breaking curve than the boy southpaw. If WahIe's first workout was not simply a. flash, he may indeed prove one of Bill Don ovan's best investments

 IS TEMPERED WITH

 Hageman has what he believes to be a just complaint to register He says that last year he signed a. three-year contract He claims that $2O0 was de- ducted from his last seasons salary for some reason, and that not long ago he was rendered a new contract for the coming year containing a. number of provisions which did not meet with his approval. He refused to sign the document and sent it back to the club with the declaration that he was ready to live up to his old document, but did not approve of the new paper which had been sent him for his signature.

 ARE DOING IN BASKETBALL.

that a league is to be formed in ali the cities of the state and at the close of the season an elimination series will be held. It is this way: The winner Of the gonfalon in Hartford is to play 8 series with the winner in New Haven and the winner in Wat erbury is to play 8. series with the winner in Bridgeport, the winner of is to play a series with the winner in series for the state championship. At least that is the way we get it. A series of this kind would no doubt attract large crowds.
 Heart five won the Holy Name League championship, the Yale quintet copped the honors in the In- ter-CoIlegiate league. On account of this sort of a co-incidence the Hearts will next season wear Yale blue jer- seyS which will make very present able appearance on the court
 It is expected that next season St. .Augustines will furnish a court, talk ing the place of St. Johns. Games are to be played two nights a week, Monday and Friday. The league teams, however, will play but one, scheduled game a week. On Monday night for instance. St. Maryss will meet St. Charles in the final game of the evening and in the first game will meet St. Charles girl team.

 HE WILL NOT START SEASON

 Anybody Taking His Franchise

New Haven, March 1s-That Geo. M. Cameron. owner of the New Ha- ven baseball club, will not start the season in the Eastern associ7tion as presently composed was learned last night upon what is regarded as the best of auth ority. Cameron, it is said. does not favor having the best cities in the circuit go along year after year carrying along towns that nave proven themselves far inferior to class B representation. It is known that Cameron favors the much discussed merger with the best; cities of the New England league and that he believes that baseball in this section will not be a success until the plan is adopted.

 It was stated last night that Clark in, Carey and Cameron will not be- represented at tomorrow's meeting here and naturally this places fO'Rourke and the three remaining directors free to take their own course Should the New London, PittsfieId and Bridgeport clubs de- eide to start it is practically certain that C1arkip, Cameron and Carey will offer them no further encourage ment.

(By Wagner.)

The &Tnagnates in Hratford, Spring field and New Haven who have an idea. they can refuse to provide baseball in their respective cities this season and at the same time prevent anybody else from doing so, will get rude surprise at the meeting in New Haven tomor- row. Applications from baseball men who want to conduct clubs in those cities are pouring into President =O'Rourke's office and if the owners don't come forward tomorrow and an nounce their intentions of starting the season there will be some new mag mates in the league.
 .eThis whole dispute is very simple, z said President .O'Rourlxe today. but it has been complicated because out side questions were dragged in. We are not trying to force these owners out of the league. We want them to stay in. We have done everything in our power to keep them. But if they don't obey the constitution of the league and qualify for membership as the other clubs do, they will lose their franchises. If they get out they have nobody to blame but themselves.
 .eThe claim that by sending protec- tion money to the National board they can claim their territory. without main taining clubs this season is absurd. They must file their bonds to be in good standing.
 The list of officials for the boxing show at the Casino March 25 has been completed Dave Fitzgerald of New Haven will referee, Al Burdick of this city will be timer and Slim Brennan of the Acorn A. c. will do the an n9uncing. The full card is:s Gilbert Gallant vs. Walter Mohr, 5 rounds; oung McAu1iffe vs. Teddy Hubbs, 10 rounds; Harry Williams vs. Battling Kunz, six round; Young Dundee vs. Young Hoppe, four rounds.
 The Harvard coaches have evidently
