between Regular. National Guard and

money from the former came to the
Soldiers Home. Members of the home
are proud of this status. according to

tary of the board of commissioners Of
the home. They are living like retired

ably both they and the Army would
resent any change in tn 8 status, and
Gen. Alvord believes that the soldiers
will prefer the system Of deductions
from their pay rather than direct Gov
eminent appropriation If the fines
ever run too low to support the insti-
tuition.
BY far the greater number now at the
home are veterans of the war with
Spain. The list is as follows: Civil

TWO At TER
HORNSBY

NEW YORK, Dec. 16.-NationaI
League club owners left here yes
terday for Chicago, where they will
meet the American Leaguers today
in joint session. Not a player deal
was completed between two Ma
tional League clubs while the own
ers and managers were in this
city, but rumors flew thick and
fast as the Westward jaunt got
under way.
One report had Sam Breadon about
ready to trade Rogers Hornsby as a
result OF what the ST. Louis owner
regards as excessive salary de-
mandS.
HOrnsby wants close to $4,000
yearly for three years, and Brea-
don says the business of the
club does not warrant any such
expenditure. The owner is will
ing to talk One-year contract,
but HOrnsby Is insistent on three
years.
Giants and Cubs are being men
toned as bidders for Hornsby.
Frank Frisch Is mentioned as a
possibility in any deal by the Giants.
1t isn't likely. however, that Brea-
don will do any trading Of Hornsby
until he has gone the limit in try
ing to reach an agreement. Hornsby
Is something of an institution in St.
Louis and the fans side must get
careful consideration.
Hornsby is said to be demanding
the elimination Of Branch Hickey
from the councils Of the club, as
well as asking for the big salary.
The differences between Breadon
and his star player are very great,
but Breadon is showing no willing
ness at this time to make any deal.
He may be sounding out other own
ners and managers for their esti-
mates of Hornsby's worth.
