in Cincinnati yesterday that iris
Speaker had cost the Cleveland club
more money than Comiskey paid for
Eddie Collins, and more than RUPERT
and Huston paid for Frank Baker.
That may be true, as far as Baker is
concerned, but it hardly goes for the
Collins deal. for it is reliably reported
that Sir Charles Comiskey dug down
in his jeans to the extent of $4,000
before the genial Mr.. Mack would part
Speaker could not expect to bring 18th at
much money. for Collins probably has
many years more to play than the for

Hans Wagner will play his last ball game.
it is a pretty good guess that Nap Lajoie
will retire after the coming season, for
his nine-thousanddo contract will ex-

he will not be likely to accept a cut or
take the management of some minor

Lajoie is player who has enjoyed a
big salary fer long period of years. He
has managed his income well and prob
ably is better fixed than any other player

doubtful If Lajoie has drawn more than

Speaker is not kid any more, hav-
ing long since passed the thirty-two-
year mark. He is not the ball player
he was a few years back. He is still a
star, though he will not be likely to
display much spirit with Cleveland, a
team which Will not have a chance to
finish first or get hooked up in a world
series. Undoubtedly iris also will have
to stand cut in salary from what he
drew last year. Boston. it is said, hand
ed its center fielder $4,000 for two
years work, as the result of the pres
ence of the Federal League in the field.
The former Boston star may awaken
lot of much-needed interest in the
Indians in Cleveland and thereby reim-
burse the owners of the new club for
the outlay they are said to have made.
The Boston club has been determined
'rall winter to get its salaries down to
where they belong. Speaker was one
Of the players picked TO stand an
enormous cut in salary, because he was
one of the highest salaried fellows in
either league.
From something like $4,000, it is
understood, he was brought down to
$4,000. This he refused TO accept, and
Cleveland probably will have to pay
him more than Boston wanted to in or
der to get him to sign.
Title Walker has been added to the
Red Sox by purchase from the St
Louis Browns, but Walker is not a
player of the Speaker type. not being
nearly as fast or as clever fielder.
ON paper the World Champions still
appear logical favorites in the coming
race. but II is not going to be an easy
matter to make a lot Of players who
have been cut in pay hustle as they did
a year ago. and. Incidentally. it remains

satisfactorily filled by the players who

There was lot of money lost in

Red SON were to have met while the
local park would have had a big spring

THE KINGS JEWS.

THE KINGS JEWS.
With the outbreak of the rebel
lion Of Infante Sancho against his
father Alfonso the Wise in 1882 a
period Of disintegration and deca-
dence set in for CASTLE and Aragon,
which practically continued until
the two states were united under
Ferdinand and Isabella. Anarchy
took the place of government
There was no central authority.
The nobility and the higher ecclesi-
astics, claimed equal power with
the king, and at times asserted
great deal more of it than he dared.
Very often he was mere puppet
in their hands. The internal history
of Spain for century and half
is a story of civil broils and of the
struggles of the crown against the
nobility.
But insignificant as the power
and authority of the king was in re-
lation to the other elements of the
population, since even the burghers
of many cities were protected by
charters against undue royal inter-
ference and the exercise of royal
prerogatives, his power over the
Jews was unlimited. The King &C
quired the habit of speaking of them
as my Jews" exactly as was done
by other European monarchs in
medieval times. Sometimes this
peculiar relation was not at all I'm
favorable to the Jews, since for self
ish reasons the King was often
moved to protect them against the
hostility of the church, the rapacity
Of the mobiles, and the cruelty of the
mob. He needed "his Jews for
they afforded him the easiest means
Of replenishing an empty royal treas
ury. The Jews could always be
mulcted.
Taxing the Jews was an easy and
convenient way for church and
state alike to increase their reve-
nues. Sancho w (1284-1295) who
succeeded his father Alfonso the
Wise as King of CASTLE, modified
the old system of taxation which
consisted chiefly of a poll-tax of so

who sold his master for thirty
pieces Of silver, according to the
gospel story. At an assembly OF
deputies from all the congregations
of New CASTLE, Leon, Murcia, and
his possessions in Andalusia, he
fixed the amount to be paid by each
district, the deputies to apportio11
the amount among it's different con-
gregations. For CASTLE, where
there were nearly $4,000 Jews, dis
tributed among 80 or more congre-
cations, the tax amounted to D.
100000 maravedis. The largest and
most influential congregations, such
as Toledo, Burgos, Carbon, Cuenca,
Nalladolid, Avila, Hita, Almo-
guerra, Hueta, and Medina del Cam
pc, of course had to pay the bulk
Of it. Some Jews, however, who
were the kings favorites, were by
special grant entirely exempt from
it.
There were other taxes that CON
siderably increased the burden
When the royal family stayed in
town that had a Jewish community,
the Jews were required to provide
the royal household with beds and
other furniture That often gave
the royal servants an opportunity to
harass and illtreat them They had
the alternative of paying a specified
sum to the royal exchequer instead
This tax became so oppressive ow
ing to the abuses for which it served
as pretext, that in 1854 the repre-
sentatives of the Jewish commun-
tiles of Aragon petitioned their
King, Pedro w, to relieve them of it.
A strikingly original tribute collect
ed from the Jews for the royal guard
was that of twelve maravedis fo-
each copy of the Torah possessed
by the community, which was later
changed to the fixed amount of four
silver reals. There were in addi-
ton, coronation tax, a pasture
tax, tlthes on houses for the bishops
and their households, customs du-
ties, bridge-tolls, and similar extor-
tons.
In 1881 King Pedro III Of Ara
gon ordered the congregations off,
