ISFZCI AXi TZLTGRAM TO TBX DISrATCH.1 KewXoek, December 19. To get some idea of the course to be pursued in the de- fense of John "Ward in the approaching equity suit, to be instituted by the National lieague, a Dispatch reporter tday inter Tiewed ex-Judge Howland, ot the firm of Anderson & Howland, who will be asso ciated with Judge Bacon in the conduct of all, cases brought against the players. Judge Howland was shown the statement made by Counselor Duyster for the other side; said Judge Howland: "As far as the statement of Mr. Duyster that the present contract was not a form of contract forced upon the players by the National League magnates, but one which the players demanded, is concerned, can say unhesitatingly that it is not correct. A man at that time was at the complete mercy of the magnates. None of the clubs working under the national agreement would employ a player who bad been placed on the reserve list by a manager of a club which had employed the player the previous year and they sold . them without regard to all rights and justice, SCORES THE MAGNATES. No; the League magnates made that con tract themselves and without any consultation with the players. The latter were asked, after, the contracts had been perfected, to acquiesce In the conditions, and after some modifications they consented, including the eighteenth clause. "What the meaning of that clause Is the Court will have to determine after a full presentation of the manner in which the clause was placed in the contract, and the construc tion given to it by practice and by representa tion of the managers." nirt nnt the nlaven. in siiminir that con- tract, agree to accent all the provisions of the same, including the'reserve clause?" Ym! lint what does the word reserve mean In this particularT Absolutely nothing. In the Crst place, tne piayer contract to puj im seven months, and no longer. , THE EESEBVE CLAUSE. That breaks all the effects of the reserve clause. Then, again, the jwoti reserve was not placed in the contracts, so that an option could be bad on a player's services for more than a year, and it was so explained by the magnates to the players at the time of signing. Is it a hardship to be held for two years It is a very great hardship, indeed, if you sign to do one thing and you are compelled todo another, just as the League magnates want the playes to do. It's a bigi mistake to say that the reserve clause means the holding of a player for two years. It Is a well-known fact that there have been players held for a longer time and not asked to sign a contract either. 1 express no fears of the result of any application made to the court of the injunction alter it is in full possession of the facts." ZIMHEP. IS THE LATEST. IHe'Deserta the Brotherhood and Signs an Old League Contract. fSTXCMLl TZLMBAM TO TBI DISPATCH t Cleveland, December 19. Charles L. Zim mer, the crack catcher of the Cleveland Leagne team of 189, to-day affixed bis signature to a League contract for 1890. Zimmer signed a Brotherhood document several reeks ago -and received 1200 advance" money. He says be did not read the contract carefully, and when be did finally peruse it found clauses that be se riously objected to. To-oaybe came down town, saw Secretary Hawley. and after some talk tbey visited At torney E wing's office. -The latter examined the contract and stated that it was not binding,and that Zimmer would be perfectly safe in con tracting to play with the League. 3 he $200 was returned to Al Johnson, and Zimmer signed the League contractfat a comfortable increase over his last year's salary. Zimmer sent the following telegram to "Ward: "John M. Ward, New York City: Please ac cept my resignation as a member of the Brotherhood. (Signed) Chas. L. Zimmer." His letter to Al Johnson, with a 200 draft inclosed, was as follows: "Mr. Al Johnson: I hare hereby availed myself of the right which all men have, of withdrawing from any society or organization with the workings of which they may have become dissatisfied. Inclosed please find the I2001oaned me December 5. (Signed) Chas. L. Zimmer." After these details had been concluded Zimmer signed a personal con tract with the Cleveland League team for three years. It was not a question of money that in fluenced him to this action, for he actually re ceives less than promised by' the Brotherhood. He says that he is disgusted with the way in which the concern is run. and breathed easy to day for the first time since be was foolish enough to sign the agreement last summer. ilELDS FOR THE PLATERS. He Accepts Advance Money From manager Banlon and Declares Himself. According to a dispatch received from Han Ion by the local Brotherhood officials yesterday "Jocko" Fields has definitely cast his lot with the new League, and will play in this city. Manager Hanion's dispatch was to the effect that Fields bad accepted his advance money from the Brotherhood, and would certainly play with the Pittsburg Brotherhood club. This would seem to settle the matter. No news has been received from Carroll yet. Regarding the new grounds Mr. Kerr said yesterdays There is plenty of time to get the grounds ready, and they will be easier put In shape than many people imagine How ever, we are prepared to t-pend monev, and if there Is a fight we'll be there. But 1 fail to see why there shonld be any bitter feeling in the matter. If the public is disposed to sup port one dnb in preference to another, why. let It go that way. If all this bitterness of feeling was imported into any of the other businesses in the city, why, we would be in continual misery. Yes. Hanlou states that Fields has accepted our advance money and has emphatically declared himself on our side. Dave Orr may come here, bnt there is nothing certain about any other players that I know of. Manager Hanlon is bustling after some good 'men." DETECTIVES AFTER DAT.

Orrtaidbehadbeen offered a big salary to play first base for the PitUburg Players' club, but bad refused the 4 offer. He would newts with the .Columbus team asutber season, but did not eign a con tract. The salary offered by Pittsburg is un known, but supposed to be nearly $4,000. Man ager Buckenberger will try to sign McTamany in Philadelphia to-morrow; then he will go to Providence to see Ed Daly. DOWff'ON THE LEAGUE. Son Strong: Words Amies Those Who Sign Two Contracts. i The Clipper, an out-and-out supporter of the Brotherhood, has the following to say about the system of signing two contracts: Ho one questions the Integrity of the National League magnates, yet it hardly seems the proper thing for some of those gentlemen to stoop to means that will In any way cast a reflection on their transactions. The fact that some of them have been guilty of encouraging their old players in dishonest dealing, by inducing them to sign a second contract, is not commendable, ir the play ers haye been guilty of auy wrongdoing, or have violated any baseball law, then redress can be ob tained by air and honorable means. On the other hand, IT the players are in the right, then those men who were weak enough to sign two contracts will certainly be punished. No honorable person can admire anyone who would be entity of double dealing, such as some of the players have done by signing two contracts. It the players are In the wrong, and the conrts so decide It, then the old clubs can obtain their players, or as inany of them as ther want, without resorllns to underhand means, but If they are In the right! then they have. ine prior claim to tne serricesoi an inese men who haTe signed two contracts. The excuses these men have offered for their action of signing two con tracts are very weak. If they bad no faith In the new leagne. why did not they wait nntll the matter had been settled In the conns? If the decision bad been against the new leagne, then they could have frone to the old League with a clear conscience, eellng that thev only did what they thought was right. As it Is, they will be despised by every honest thinking person. Then, on the other hand, shonld the case be settled In favor of the new league, where will these men be and who will have any faith In themf F0DR FOB BRADFORD. fllnnager McBrlde Sign Jones, Hess, Ar mour and Rovre at Good Salaries. Manager McBnde, of the Bradford club, which is a member of the New York and Penn sylvania League, was in the. city yesterday. Last evening he signed Pitcher Jones and Catcher Hess, of last season's Pittsburgh and Second Baseman Bowe and Bigbtfielder Ar mour, of the Homestead club. Jones and Hess are to receive $150 each per month. Jones was recently asked to sign a Brotherhood contract, but declined. During a conversation Manager McBrlde said: "Jones, of course, was reserved by the Pittsburg club, but it was provisional, and the Pittsburg officials have not asked him to sign. Our leagne is under the national agreement, and of course we know that we are acting in accordance with the rules. The prospects or our organization are very encouraging. It will consist of eigdt clubs, viz: Olean, Jamestown, Dunkirk and Elmira In New York State, and Meadville. Erie, Bradford In Pennsylvania. The eighth clnb will probably be Troy or Syra cuse. We will hare a good team at Bradford, as we are selecting the best men we can getiu our class." The quartet of local players signed by Mana ger McBnde will, undoubtedly, give a good ac count of themselves. v THE DOG FIGHTERS. Humane Agent O'Brien Will Prosecute Abont 200 of Them.

ISTXCIAL TELEOBAX TO THX DISPATCH. 1 Baxttuobs, December 19. Governor Bowie has officially notified the members of the Mary land Jockey Club that the organization is about to dissolve. He has sent to each a circular let ter in which he sets forth the various causes which led to the failure of the clnb. He calls attention to the fact that at the time the club "was "first organized there were only two racing associations in the iastern ana Miaaie states, the American Jockey Clnb at J erome Park and the Saratoga Association. At that tlmePimlico was the great central ground to which the best horses were brought. -Since then many other organizations had come into being. After the disastrous experience of the National Jockey Club at Washington in its late fall meeting, when it is said to have lost over 17,000, the Pimlico Club concluded, in order to save expenses, to at once surrender its lease of Pimlico.

Many of the most influential members of the Pelican Club have taken a strong stand against the manner in which prize fights and boxing matches bave been managed for the past few years. To quote the language of one of the lights of the Gerrard Street Circle: "Matches are made for too large amounts. Whenever there are great stakes there will be fraud and collusion. Better men than are now in the ring have fought for 50 a side, yet SnlIlran has the effrontery to demand thousands for facing Jackson, with whom, judging by his perform ance with Mitchell, be has no show." , The Smlth-SlaTln Fight. London, December 19. It is stated that Jem Smith and Frank Blavin, the Australian pugilist, will fight on Monday near Lille, in Belginm, for the championship of England and $2,500 a side. All the aristocratic patrons of the ring will go from here by the Brussels ex press Sunday night. Knocked Daffy Ont. Indianapolis, December 19. A special from Terra Haute, IntL, says Steve Curren knocked out Jack Duffy in the fourth round, Marquis of Queensberry rules, two-ounce gloves, this morning at 2 o'clock at a place just over the line in Illinois. About lob sporting men fromthe Wabash Valley were present He Doctorrd ibe Dog. A well-known butcher of Woods' Bun and a popular sporting man bought Sailor Jack, the dog that fought on Tuesday night, paying 136 for him. The dog was besmeared with blood ana dirt, but the butcher took eC'bJ IWover- I ''coat and wrapped the maaffled dog; in it. JWhen arrived at Rose toe new owner Degan to aocior the poor dog himself affd saturated Its bead and body with crude petroleum and salt. The agonies of the animal were Intense audits howls were tearful. -He's wild to be at the other dog." said the 4utafeer. "He hasn't for gotten yet. You bet he's a game 'on, and Til match him against anything his weight." THAIER'S BIG OFFBR Ho Makes n Statement to Teemer About the 8ca11Inc Championship. McKeesfobt, December 19. Charles H. Thayer, of Boston, says in abetter to John Teemer to-day: "Knowing there will be con troversy for possession of the world's cham pionship title,! bave suggested the great re gatta for the leading oarsmen of the country, to last for two or three days, for the different contests to settle the championship question and receive financial benefits from the purse I will offer, and I desire to learn your views." He is getting the views of the oarsmen on the matter. Teemer answered, as he did before, that be thought it the proper thing, and that be could be counted on to take part in it. Ha is of the opinion that it is probably better than the sweepstake Idea, and is of the opinion that oarsmen shonld each put up an entrance fee beside the $5,000 parse of Mr. Thayer, as it will make it all the more Interesting to the oars men. This, he says, would be similar to tne great international regatta which was rowed in London on the Thames in 1870. He is ready for it and hopes that it will be a go. In the event of Mr. Thayer's regatta taking place he will postpone bis Australian visit. Speaking of the remarks of James A. St. John stating "that Teemer has no right to claim the championship," Teemer says: "What's wrong with St. John nowt Has he come back to aquatics again after retiring pos itively forever T I did not and do not claim the championship title. I lay no claim to it; neither did I make remarks of any kind to be construed that way; but I mean to contest for it. I am a candidate for it, and I am going to compete with all professionals who row for it. That's all the claim I bave to it. I hope to row for it whenever It is to be rowed for. Neither O'Conner or any oarsman In America has any claim to the title; If It belongs to anyone it is to Stansbery. Searle dereated O'Connor, Kemp and Stansbery, ana the latter gave him the hardest of the three races. This is my reason for saying that Stansbery can lay claim to the title." ST. LOUIS AND L0DISTILLE Will Probably Unite With the Cities of the Western Association. rSrSCTAt. TXZ.XOBAK TO THX DtSrATCS.1 St. Pattl, Mnra., December 19. It is ex pected a special meeting ot the Western Asso ciation managers will be held immediately after the holidays to Invite the St. Louis and Louisville clubs to join the Western Associa tion. The St-Paul and Minneapolis managers are enthusiastically in favor of the project. President Thompson, of St. Paul, said this afternoon that such a move had been expected for some time, and intimated that letters had already been passing Mr. Thompson said he was certain that no attempt would be made to reorganize the American Association, and that if St. Louis played ball at all in 1890 it would be with the Western Association. Mr. Von der Abe's remarks in New York yesterday were a hint at what be intended to do. If Louisville asks to come m the Ken tucky club will be admitted without question. Mr. Thompson was in donbt as to what would be done abont the number of clubs. The organization is now composed of eight clubs, and the admission of two more would make a ten-club leagne. He was not in favor of drop ping Sioux City and Des Moines, because both had raised enough money to guarantee them the season, and all the other cities can support themselves. The votes ot both St. Paul and Minneapolis will be cast in favor of a ten-club league. To.Dny's Entries. rSrXCIAI, TXX.XOBAIC TO THX DISFATCH.1 New Yoek, December 19.

President Soden, of the Boston League club, said to-day that he and bis associates bad secured a new man in the person of Hardie, the crack catcher and heavy bitter of the Pacific slope. This makes nine men who have signed the League contract in this city. Mr. Soden, talking about the Brotherhood prospects.- said: "We hope to get all our men back, and will pay them the same salaries as in 1889. .Tnero will be very little money made in baseball next year, with the immense salaries which now must be paid to the star players, especially ir there are to be two clubs." Sporting Note. O'Connor issued a deflniA challenge yester day to rowj anybody in the wor'i for the cham pionship. The announce -.en: that MnlVey had jumped the Brotherhood caused more surprise among the members of that organization than the de sertion of any other player. Ned Handon certainly deserves to bo called a "hustler." He and Ward have worked hard and faithrully for the formation of the Players' National League, and they will soon be enjoy ing the fruits of their labor. Clipper. Mike Tieenan has refused to sign a Play ers' League contract at present, because his price is $3,500, while the new League managers cannot pay more than $2,500. Mike thinks that be Is worth as much as O'Bourke, and he Is right, too. jyino York Sun. Great Excitement Among our competitors.

GKEAT PUN ON' THE STOCK EICIAKGE. lbs Balls Show the Astonished Strangers a Bit of Their Work. ' A busy day was put in at the metropolis yesterday by the visiting delegates of the Pan-American Congress. The scenes on 'Change seemed to most please and mystify the guests of the day. General Sherman was introduced to the delegates at the Chamber of Commerce, rsrxciAt, tzxxobax to tbb dispatcki .Hew Tobk, December 19. The visiting members of the International American Congress to-day got a glimpse of the com mercial, financial and military resources of the metropolis. Advantage was 'iaken of the morning sunshine, and early in the fore noon a large party of the delegates enjoyed a drive overjthe Brooklyn bridge. Nearly half an hour was spent upon the bridge. The ladies devoted another day to the big shops, which bave inexhaustible attractions for them, and nearly all the gentlemen of the party spent the day downtown. The Equit. able building was first visited. Halt an hour was spent in the parjors of the Lawyers' Clnb. Breakfast was served in the large dining room of the club. At its conclusion Vice President Alexander for mally bade the guests welcome on behalf of the society. The company indorsed with a round of cheers the society which Mr. Alex ander represented. Minister Bomero.of Mex ico, made a brief response for the delegates. Senor Castellanos, ot Salvador, the lawyer of the delegation, said a word in Spanish apropos of the fact that the company met in the quarters of the Lawyers' Clnb. He was glad, he said, to bear testimony to the world-wide eminence of the American bar, and to express bis appreciation of the ex ample it has offered to the Spanish-American countries. AT THE STOCK EXCHANGE. vAfter a brief inspection of the offices of the insurance company, the party walked to the Wall street entrance of the Stock Ex change, escorted by Inspector Williams and a squad of policemen.. In the Governor's room they were received by President William E. Bull and several members of the Governing Board. A few words of welcome from Presi dent Bull were briefly responded to by Dele gate Aragon. of Costa Rica, and then the party filed Into the Southern gallery and watched the proceeding on the floor below. The scene to one unaccustomed to It was a pandemonium, and the delegates failed to understand, nntll it was explained to them, that the rushing; strug gling, shouting crowd was a gathering of brokers doing a business of millions every hour. The party watched the scene for a few momenta, and then Mr. Hughes, of the com mittee which was escorting them, called for three cheers for the New York Stock Exchange. The delegates responded heartily, and the thousand mem bers on the floor crowded over in front of the gallery and returned the compli ment with vigor. Then the boys out of com pliment to the visitors, no doubt gave a prac tical demonstration of their powers In financial pyrotechnics. The bulls were in control, and the Missouri Pacific pole happened to be near est the corner of the gallery around which the party was congregated. They picked up that stock and sent it kiting. An advance of two points,representlng a gain in market value of $2,000, was made before they stopped their pounding. COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. President Bull explained that the transac tions of the exchange sometimes amounted to $100,000,000 in a single day, and the delegates looked amazed, and some of them politely in credulous. Some of the brokers caught sight J of Inspector Williams- stalwart ngure at tne opposite end of the gallery, and they greeted him with all manner of jocose remarks. Tbey challenged bim to come upon the floor, without club, and offered to make it lively for him perhaps in payment of old scores. From the Exchange the party walked to the Chamber of Commerce, which they reached at 230 o'clock. They rested for a few minutes be fore the exercises which bad been arranged, and in the interval General Sherman" entered, escorted by Mr. Hughes. The delegates greeted him with great enthusiasm, and the old warrior held quite a reception. President Charles S. Smith made a short aadress of welcome. Dele gate Aragon, the only merchant among the for eign members of the conference, responded. The Chamber of Commerce ot New York and other public-spirited institutions, he said, fur nished the inspiration which was guiding the members of the conference In their efforts ' General Sherman was introduced by Presi dent Smith, with a reference to the "march to the sea," aud received a hearty welcome.

V.Pow derlyfumishesa lengthy statement of bis diffi culty with Hon. Edward Callagban of Scott dale, which led to the present prosecution for conspiracy. In substance it is as follows: The commencement of this trouble dates back to tbe appointment of a committee of Knights of Eabor in the spring of 1887 to watch legislation In tbe Interests orworklnamen as it came before the Ueneral Assembly of Pennsvlvanla. This com mittee was appointed by a convention called by Mr. Powderly. He Heard no more or tbe matter until March 2, 1683, when he received a letter from Edward Callaghan, stating that the committee neglected its dnty, and that tne writer was re liably informed tbat members who stood high In tbe order did not want the committee's reports published. In replyto this Mr.Powderlywrote tbat he had not been before apprised that the commit teenegleetedltsdnty.andatany rate tbe matter was not In bis hands, in conclusion, Mr. Pow derly requested Sir. Callaghan to give his au thority for stating tbat ' 'members who stood high In tbe order do notwant their reports published, " asking this under the seal of the General Master Workman. On March 7, Mr. CaTlaghan wrote his reply tell- lnjrilr. Powderly that "hewpnld see blmin and the. order on top- of him" berore hewonld aire him under the seal ot setrecy what was al ready public iproperty Re also said that Mr. Powderly was derelict In his dnty In not having tbe committee report to him, and at best the com mittee was a sham.- Mr. Callaghan then gave the history of his cor respondence with Mr. PovWerly. and said that after his last letter Sir. Powdeily circulated an infamous lie abont bis letter to blm and thus be Injured his political chances badly. "I fen by the hands of supposed friends. " said Mr. Callaghan, ' 'but 1 rise again to expose the villainy of labor organizations when the Interests of their pets are assailed." I Sometime In June a convention was held for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Assembly man In tbe Scottdale district. On June H Mr. Poirderly received another letter In whleh Calla gban Informed blm tbat tie was "tbe most con temptible, the most hateful and the most design ing villain who ever escaped a halter." He ac cused Mr. Powderly of vllllfylng bim by circula ting the stories which led to bis defeat. "Had you published mj letter," he declared, "yon wwuld have saved me. but. If you had published Ityoa would have-exposed your own treachery to tbe Enlfrhts of Labor, and you sacrificed me to save yourself." Mr. Powderly told a reporter to-day that ho knows nothing of the present case except what he has seen In the newspapers, but supposed that It js a renewal ux lue cnarge oi conspiracy. Mr. Powderly thinks tbat there Is no doubt that his name has been used by Callaghan's opponents, bat be says he 4s not responsible for tbat. Tbe libel Is not against Callaghan, bnt against hlm- eeir, ior, aiinougn ne is tnorougniy innocent in the matter, he has been subjected to persecution and damaging allegations.
