ISFECULL TELEOEAU TO TUX DISPATCH.!
New Yoke, December 9. Tbe first an
nual meeting of the 2f ew York Baseball
Players' Clnb was held at the office of
Judge Bacon, 110 Broadway, this afternoon.
Among the players present were: "Ward,
O'Bourke. Ewing, Bicnardson, Keele, Con
nor and Crane. The election resulted as
follows:
President, Cornelius Van Cott; Vice
President, E. B. Talcott; Secretary and Treas
urer, Frank B. Robinson, who must qualify in
1100,000; directors. VanCott, McAlpm, Talcott,
Kobinson. Ewing and Keef o.
There was some little surprise at the result
of tbe election, for it was considered a foregone
conclusion that Colonel Tom McAlpine would
be elected Tretident He. howeTer, sent word
that a pressure of business would prevent his
accepting tbe office. T reasurer Talcott put up
a bond of $100,000, and tbe constitution and by
laws of the club, as compiled by Messrs. "Ward
and Bacon, were adopted. Connor, Richard
son. Crane and O'Kourke paid in their 10 per
cent of the capital stock, as required by law.
On Monday next the meeting of the Players'
" league will be held, when two delegates, a
player and a backer from each club, will com
plete tbe organization of the League. A cen
tral board, consisting of two players and two
backers from each clnb. will be appointed.
This new board will meet directly after the
regular meeting and arrange for tbe transfer of
players.
WILL AEEIYE TO-M0RB0W.
Hanlon and Ward Coming to Organize u.
New Clnb.
There have been many coniectures about the
continued absence of Ed Hanlon. It was stated
yesterday, however, by a gentleman who is in a
position to know that Mr. Hanlon has been de
tained from visiting this city on particular and
important business. Mr. Hanlon and Mr. John J
M. 'Ward will be here to-morrow, and their
mission is to thoroughly organize a Brother
hood club here. Mr. Hanlon has been detained
on business vitally concerning tbe Brotherhood,
and he wires a friend here to the effect that
there will be little or no trouble in organizing a
club here.
This definite news sets at rest all rumors to
the effect that Cincinnati would take tbe place
of Pittsburg in tbe Brotherhood circuit, ana it
will doubtless be pleasing news tolocal cranks,
because if any city has to have the old players
of last year's local clnb Pittsburg ought to
have them.
A gentleman interested in tbe proposed
Brotherhood club here said yesterday after
noon: "It is unnecessary to keep up a newspa
per dispute about the pros and cons of tbe old
and new club. Let It suffice to say that a Brother
hood club will be In Pi ttsburenext season. Each
player will get a share of the profits cleared,
and this will guarantee tht the whole team
will Win line. Tbe players are simply trying
to help themselves and a few of us are aiding
them. I say let them go on and if thev have
an art that the public is willing to pay for let
them share the money by all means. That's all
there is in it. Tbe Brotherhood Clnb will be
organized here this week and it will play to big
audiences in Pittsburg next season.

WHAT JACKS02J WILL DO.
He U Willing to Meet Sullivan Some Tims
Next Summer.
rsrzciAi. TEJtoLOt-TO -rn? uispatck.!
San Fraucisco, December 9. L. K. Fulda,
President of the California Athletic Club, has
received a letter from Parson Davies, which
tells exactly what Peter Jackson intends to do.
Jackson will not challenge Sullivan, but will
fight him for a reasonable purse if the Califor
nia Club arranges the match. Peter will want
five months from the date of signing the ar
ticles of agreement with Sullivan before meet
ing him in the ring. As Jacsson will not leave
for America before January 20, and will take
two months in the East to till engagements that
have been offered him there, the fightwlth Sul
livan couldn't possibly take place before the
middle of summer. Davies writes that Jacfe
son has been treated in royal style In England
and everywhere be has been received in most
friendlv manner. Recently, on visiting one
large London market, marketmen all received
him with cheers, and as he passed through sang
"He's a Jolly Good Fellow." Davies does not
indulge in any predictions at to probable re
sults of the match between Jackson and Sulli
van, but judging by the length of time Peter
wants to get in shape to meet the Boston man,
he does not underrate his capacity.
FUTOEE OF JEROME PARK.
Slim Prospects of Racing; There In Opposi
tion to Westchester.
IBFKCIAX. TELEQBAX TO TBI DISrATCH.l
New Yobk, December 9. A special meeting
of the stockholders of the Jerome Park Villa
Site and Improvement Company was held at 5
o'clock this afternoon at tho rooms of the
American Jockey Club. It is this company
which owns Jerome Park and rents it to the
American Jockey Club. It Is conceded that
Jerome Park lost a good deal of money this
last year, principally because of the competi
tion of the Wes Chester track. The question
was whether Jerome Park should open next
year, or whether it should kff k the bucket on
tbe spot. Some decision on this point mnst be
reached before the beginning of tbe year, for
then the announcements of the next season's
card and purses must be made.
Secretary Lovecraft said at the close of tbe
meeting that tbis point bad not been decided.
Itwasnotyetknown.be said, whether or not
there would be any more racing at Jerome Park,
and no financial plan had been settled upon.
None of the stockholders present would say
more than this. There is likely to be another
meeting soon.

tions were: 25 live birds a man, entrance fee

TBIDDrs CHALLENGE.
Hs is Ready to Ron McClelland For BIjr
Stakes.
The local foot runners are again ta the front,
and Pittsburgers may see another good race
before long. Sam Day. the 'trainer of Peter
Priddy, called at this office yesterday, and left
the iollowing challenge:
"I understand that McClelland and his back
ers are not satisfied with his defeat by Peter
Priddy. If tbis is so, I want to make a definite
offer to the McClelland party. Peter Priddy
will run McClelland one mile, or one mile and
a half, under the same conditions as the last
race between them for $500 or 1,000 a side.
Priddy will also run McClelland a two-mile
race on a cood track for the same amount. I
.now put up $50 forfeit as a guarantee that the
challenge means nusiness, ana i wiu aiiow it to
remain at The Dispatch office for tnreo
weeks. This is no bluff, because our money
goes, and we prefer tbe race, whatever distance
it may be. to be f or 81.000 a side. Now is the
time for these dissatisfied people to put up the
ifih."
Jennings Talk Plain.
Jack Jennings, the heavyweight pugilist,
called at this office last evening and left the
following statement:
"I read in The Dispatch to-day that I had
forfeited to Ryan, of McDonald's station.
This is false. Ryan wanted a "receipt1 fight,
and also that it should take place outside the
State. He conld not guarantee a safe place to
fight, and therefore demanded his own money
back. How let me say a word: I will fight Ryan
under any rules, at any place in Pennsylvania,
and for any stake ranging from $500 to $1,000
a side. I really want to know, and so do hun
dreds of others, whether or not Ryan is a pngll
1st. If he will put up the cash for a square
contest then I will notice what he says."

in 10 hours next Saturday, a week before the
Christmas 72-hour race. A messenger was sent

complish the feat. Tbe parties interested will
meet to-day and select a track and put up the

A COSTIGT'S CHARGES.
John Rellly Follows In McPhlllami'a Foot
steps With a Tale of Woe.
During the McPhillamy-Maharneke in
vestigation before the Board of Directors of
the Western Penitentiary last year, one of
the witnesses was a prisoner named John
Reilly. After his examination had been
completed, Reilly startled those present by
saying to President George A. Kelly, of the
Prison Board:
Mr. Kelly. I want to make a charge.
Does it relate to the matter in hand?
Ho, sir; bnt I want to make it,
Yon can prefer your charge at another time.
The prisoner was taken out by the guards.
He refused to see a newspaper man subse
quently, and his charge was" not made
public, the incident being quickly for
gotten. Warden Wright said last evening that
Beilly had been recently released, and that
he had related his woes to a fellow ex-prisoner.
In this way Keilly's grievance was
retailed to Warden Wright yesterday. It
was, in effect, that Beilly alleges that the
money paid for the expenses of securing a
hearing before the Pardon Board had been
"whacked up" by a prominent attorney and
a jail official. This story was .stamped by
Warden Wright as ridiculous in the ex
treme. Mr. George A. Kelly was also seen in re
gard to the story, and said it was all news to
him, but he remembered Keilly's question
and tbe incident oi tbe Mabarneke affair
above quoted. He believed that the charges
were groundless.
A PENK ATENUE AFFEAL
A Man Shot la lbs Head and Bis Assailant
Arrested.
Anton Bigel was shot during a fight out
Penn avenue last night. Bigel, in company
with three men named Boman Niggel, Peter
Massey and Conrad Deminger, met at a
house in Lafayette alley, and had a dispute
which led to the row. Massey drew a re
volver and fired two shots, the first one
striking Bigel on the head and the second
on the left hand.
- Bigel was taken to Dr. Clark' office, and
was alterward removed to ms home. J.ne
ball that struck his head had gone under
the scalp, scraping the skull, but coming
out without breaking the bone.
The matter was reported to the police, and
when the officers searched for Massey, they
found him at his home in bed. Officer
Wentzel had a grapple with Massey. The
latter tried to shoot him, and would have
overpowered him, had not Lieutenant Orth
appeared.
The police were obliged to use their maces,
and Massey was locked up with a badly
beaten bead.
UBSULLNE CONTENT MATTERS.
Some Inside Fncta ConcernloE the Troubles
of the Institution.
An undoubted authority states that the
five French nuns of the TJrsuline Convent
were recently offered $30,000, or $6,000
apiece, to leave tbe convent in peace. This
they refused and cannot get now. As a con
sequence the convent is in trouble and
$200,000 in debt. By the rules of the con
vent, there should be a new superioress
every three years. Mother Alphonse re
fused to comply with this rnle, hence her
removal. The three sisters Burns, daugh
ters ot the London publisher, one of whom
is Superioress Gertrnde,bave, however, con
tributed handsomely to help the convent

CARLISLE TO LEAD THE DEM00BATS.
The Blind Chaplain Hakes a Flea for the Late
Jefferson Davis.
Messrs. McKinley, of Ohio, and Carlisle,
of New York, have been officially recog
nized by Speaker Beed as tbe leaders of
their respective parties in Congress. The
Speaker yesterdayannouueed five important
committees, and expects to complete his list
by Monday next. Mr. Kelley requested
lighter work than that ot Chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee.
lFEOM A 8TA1T COBBISPONDEJJT.
Washington, December 9. As The
Dispatch predicted he would do, Speaker
Beed this morning announced the member
ship of several of the important committees.
He took this course in order to permit-the
Ways and Means and Appropriations com
mittees to begin their workwithoutdelay.and
enable them to report any bills they may
have to present at an earlier date than would
otherwise be possible. He expects to com
plete tbe list of committees during the week,
and report them on next Monday tcrthe
House.
The formation of the committees an
nounced to-day is regarded on all sides as
very satisfactory. The Democratic minority
express themselves well pleased at their
representation. In the make-up of the
Ways and Means Committee but few of the
members who served on it during the last
Congress have been reappointed. Of the 13
members only 2 of the Republicans and
3 of the Democrats have been retained.
Practically, therefore, it is a new com
mittee. AT HIS OWN BEQUEST.
Mr. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, whom many
expected to see made chairman of this com
mittee, wrote to Speaker Beed, reljnquish
ing any claim he might have for this recog
nition, and suggesting that on account of
the present condition of his health and his
advanced age, work on a less important
committee would be more in consonance
with his wishes. Mr. Kelley also suggested
that the Committee on Manufactures would
be the one upon which he would like to
serve, and in conlormity with this, the
Speaker made him its Chairman.
Mr. W.C.P. Breckenridge, of Kentucky,
realizing that two places on the committee
could not be given to tbe same State, and
that Mr. Carlisle's place as leader of the
minority was clearly at the head of the
Democratic representation on tne ways ana
Means, gracefully requested the Speaker to
assign himself to some other work. He was
consequently transferred to the next im
portant committee in the House, that on
Appropriations. ,
ALIi VERT POLITE.
Mr. Mills, of Texas, who was the Chair
man of the Ways and Means Committee in
the last House, also acted very courteously
toward the ex-Speaker. He waived his
right to the first place on the minority rep
resentation, and insisted that he be placed
second to Mr. Carlisle.
Representative Bayne was given a highly
complimentary position on the Ways and
Means Committee. He was the recipient of
many congratulation's from bis colleagues
upon his appointment, as they realize his
peculiar fitness for the place on account of
ms taste ior ine wont huu uis speciaijifcuuy
for years of political economy and finance.
Mr. Belden, of New York, gets a place on
the AnnroDriations Committee, in return
for his valuable services on behalf of
Speaker Beed in his recent candidacy.
Mr. Wilson, of West Virginia, one of the
best of the Democrats serving last Congress
on the Ways and Means Committee, has
been transferred to the leadership of the
minority on tbe Committee on Manufactures.
MB. DALZELL PLEASED.
Mr. Dalzell is placed on the Elections
Committee, which is probably one of the
strangest ever formed. He says he is much
pleased that the Speaker has consulted his
wishes in this matter. No committee of the
House offers better opportunities for oratory.
Maish, of York, also gets on this committee.
Townsend, of New Brighton, is placed
second on the Committee on Mileage, a com
mittee whose prompt appointment is possi
bly due to thefact that mileage is all many
of the members will have to live on this
month, on account of the ungracious per
formance of Mr. Silcott,
Of course the appointment of McKinley
to the Chairmanship of Ways and Means
was discounted, and occasioned no surprise.
His selection was practically settled the
moment his defeat for the Speakership was
decided by ballot! In this position he is
ei-officio the leader of tbe majority party in
the House, and a great deal of curiosity is
manifested as to whether he will make a
brilliant success in the position.
A GBEAT SEAL AT STAKE.
In this Congress Mr. McKinley will have
unlimited opportunity to show his mettle,
and if he exhibits the least lack of courage
or ability to meet the great responsibilities
of the office, the Democrats will crowd him
and the party to the wall, and force to the
front a new leader.
The Democratic leaders, with a consum
mate parliamentarian like Carlisle as their
generalissimo, will lose no chance to gn
an advantage, and the questions which will
soon arise will put the abilities ot Mr. Mc
Kinley to the severest test. His is a posi
tion which will make vastly greater de
mands than the Speakership would have
made, and while his most ardent admirers
have perfect confidence in his meeting all
the severe requirements, the developments
of the session in regard to the new leader
will be awaited with deep interest, as the
Ohioan's future depends on the result.
Should he expand into a brilliant and in
vincible leader, his ambition for the Presi
dency will have solid substance to build
upon. Liohtnee.
ONE OP THE WEDGES.
Congressman Houlc Has a New Scheme to
Knock Ont Civil Service.
lTIlOM A STACT COBBXSrbltDKNT.J
Washington, December 9. Represen
tative Houk, of Tennessee, is one of the
most outspoken or the opponents to the
civil service law in Congress. He. has pre
pared a bill replacing the present civil
service commission, by a board of three
persons, to be appointed by the head of each
department. He said, to-day:
This will be the entering wedge, and if we
pass tbis measure it will not be long before the
civil service law is repealed outright. There
are a number of men who will vote for tbis
bill ot mine who would go no tnrther at this
time. I have every reason to believe also, that
president .Harrison iu sign my oui n it get8
to him, while 1 expect he would veto a proposi.
tion to repeal the existing law. There is
no doubt in my mind that tbis civil
uoomea to
the result of tbe recent elections in Ohio and
Iowa was partly brought about as a manifesta
tion ot disgust at theNexisting system of civil
service. I don't believe that an anpropriatlon
will go through the present Honse to carry on
the commission. I shall certainly vote against
it, and at least 0 other members have come to
me and expressed themselves as being inclined
to do the same thing.
Mr. Alf. Taylor, ako of Tennessee, and
brother of the present Democratic Governor
of that State, although he himself is a Re
publican, promised his constituents to in
troduce a bill to repeal the civil service law.
Said he:.
4l ww talkte. te'.a, giaWmia ,Mh Mbw W
about this, and he asked me if I wonld like to
see a condition of chaos such -s wonld ensne
if tbe law was repealed, I replied that it it
was a case ot ''no chaos, no offices," I was in
favor of chaos and offices.
100KING OUT FOE THEiK OWN.
Congressmen Anzlons to Get Their Salaries
Stolen br Silcott.
FBOK A STAFF CORRESPONDENT.
Washington, December 9. The com
mittee, engaged in investigating the ac
counts of the Sergeant-at-Arm8' office, as a
result of Silcott's defalcation, will make
tbeir report on Wednesday, if they have
time to present it before the beginning of
-the Congressional Centennial proceedings.
They will make no report on the question as
to whether the Sergeant-at-Arms is a dis
bursing officer of the Government, but it is
expected that they will recommend that the
salaries of members lost by Silcott's flight be
paid in full by the Government
In the House to-day Mr. Payne, of Kew
York, introduced a bill defining the duties
of the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Honse of
Representatives. It defines the dutiesalready
performed by that officer, and then pro
ceeds: Toe moneys which have been or may he ap
propriated for tbe compensation and mileage
shall be paid at tbe Treasury oh requisition
drawn by the clerk on the Sergeant-at-Arms,
shall be kept, disbursed and accounted for by
him, according to law, and he shall be a dis
bursing officer. He shall give a bond in the
sum of 150,000. which shall be deposited in the
office of the First Controller of the Treasury.
The bill was referred to the special In
vestigating Committee, with leave td report
at any time.

A PLEA FOE CHARITY.
The Blind Chaplain Prays for the North to
Forget and Forsive.
Washington, December 9. In his
prayer this morning, the House chaplain
said:
Almighty God, the land is full of sorrow,
Rachel weeping for her children and will not
be comforted because they are not; fathers for
their first born, the pride and stay ot their
futnre years; children for their parents, and
millions sit cold In the atmosphre of death,
mourning the departure from earth of a man
dear to their hearts, who had reached the term
of fonr score of years. Grant that the solemn
mystery of death, the common heritage of us
all, tbe meaning of which all must know ere
long, may soften and hallow our hearts and
feelings into tbe noble gentleness of the golden
text uttered by the most conspicuous man of
tbe century, in whom tenderness of heart made
greatness of station and character morn illus
trious: "Charity for all; malice for none."

The practice of ladies riding on horseback is
rapidly extending to this country, and in any
of our large pnblic parks and oridle-patbs ten
ladles can be seen now where there were but
one or two a few years ago. Horseback riding
is certainly a splendid exercise for women, and,
with her peculiar nervous organization and
usually sedentary habits, tbe American woman
is much in need of exercise in the open air.
Those who are too weak and exhausted to
ride now can do so in a few months' time By
toning np and rejuvenating their nervous sys
tems, equalizing the circulation in their ex
tremities, and building np tbeir muscular tissues
by the use of Roger's Royal Nervine, tne most
subtle and magical nerve tonic known. There
suits attending its use are marvelous, as wit
ness the following from the celebrated actress,
Helen Dauvray:
"I have used Rogers' Royal Nervine Tonic
and find it an excellent tonic fat exhausted
nerves, sleeplessness, and that utter fatigue
which comes from overtaxation of tbe brain."
