L
Hecker to be Manager of the
Old Pittsburg Club.
ALBERT JOMSOiN'S VIEWS.
He Says a Few Sensible Words About
His Team.
THE SPORTIKG HEWS OF THE DAY
It is officially- stated that Guy Hecker
will be appointed manager of the local Na
tional League club on Saturday. President
Johnson, of the Cleveland Players' club,
makes a very impartial and exceedingly in
teresting statement about the two clubs at
Cleveland. Ad Gumbert declares himself.
Manager Hanlon talks about to-day's meet
ings. It may now be accepted as a fact that Guy
Hecker, the famous Sir Guy, will be mana
ger of the local League team. A meeting of
the club directors will be held on Saturday
to settle the matter, Director Converse being
expected in the city that day. A majority
of the directors have already declared them
selves in favor of Hecker lor the management
and If all goes well Guj will have charge of the
team.
Spealingof the matter yesterday an official
of the club said. "1 have always favored the
appointment of Hecker. He is an experienced
man, a good, all-round ball player and has an
excellent business faculty. President Nimick
never had met Hecker until a day or so ago,
but otter their first meeting Mr. Nimick Is
considerably impressed with the Oil City ball
player.
A MAJORITY FOB HECKER.
"A majority of the directors favor Hecker.
and 1 think that he will be unanimously
elected. At any rate, you can say for me that
exceut somethinc that nobody expects hap
pens Hecker will be our manager."
The appointment of Hecker will give gen
eral satisfaction, as he has had a good career
as a ball player, and is yet in his prime. He
started professional ball playing in 1882. when
he left the Oil City club and went to Louisville
at a salary of 73 per month. He soon ranked
among the best pitchers and hitters, and to-day
he is an excellent all-round man. He managed
the Louisville club some time, and the only
time that club cleared money was under his
manacement. He is a first-class judge of
young ball player, and a few years ago wrote
a book on "The Art of Pitching " He is also a
genial gentleman, and is well respected by all
ball plavers.
The directors on Saturday will also deter
mine whether or not the clnb will eo on its
Southern trip. Opinion on this matter among
the officials is still equally divided. Referring
to the matter yesterday Secretary Scandrett
said. "I don't think there will be anv trip, and
in fact I don't think a trip is needed."
WAXTS KILL OE CUBE
Mr. Scandrett was asked his opinion regard
ing the reported, efforts of President Johnson,
of the Cleveland Players' club, and President
Robison, of the National League, to have the
schedule of games so arranged as to keep the
two teams from being in Cleveland together.
Mr. Scandrett Said "I don't favor any such
deals. Th conflict has begun, and th sooner
we find out what the result is to be the better.
It is simply a question ot the survival of the
fittest, and e may as well fight it out now as
later."
Speaking on this question. Manager Hanlon
said: The new Lieasue will probably have its
schedule completed this week, and the old
Leagne can make one to please itself. Cer
tainly matters could be made smoother by
having the clubs of one League in the East on
holidays and the clubs ot the other League tn
the West. But we ask no quarter, and we will
o 'ahead Independently and fairly just as we
ave done in the past."
THE BKEACH WIDENS.
Gumbert Withdraws Ills Contract and Re
fuse! to Play In Pitubnrs.
The unpleasant hitch between Pitcher Ad
Gumbert and Manager Hanlon has developed
into a very wide breach; so much so that Mr.
Gumbert declared yesterday that he will not
play in Pittsburg at alk The demands of Gum
bert were stated in yesterday's Dispatch, and
Manager Hanlon had a short conference yes
terday with the pitcher relative to the matter.
The manager mildly pointed out that the con
ditions of the contract were extravagant and
certainly could not be granted. Mr. Gnmbert
then declared all negotiations off and de
manded his contract back.
After the conference Mr. Cumber stated
that the contract had been strictly in accord
ance with promises made by Manager Hanlon,
aud that the latter had retreated from promises
held out. Last evening Manager Hanlon emphat
ically denied the above statement. "All that I
aid to Gumbert," Hanlon remarked, "was that if
mere was anything objectionable in the con
tract be could modify it, but most certainly I
never told him to make a new contract. I had
no authority to do so. We were, and are, dis
posed to treat Gumbert the same as we treat
other players, and we certainly offered bim
terms that were better than Chicago offered
him. Gumbert is a good ballplayer, bnt we
cannot make an extraordinary setof conditions
for him alone. We have more than 1U0 good
ballplayers. However. I think after a little
thought, he will be content to sign with us
under the same general conditions that other
players have accepted."
KEW CLUB DIRECT0E8 MEET.
They Transact Some Interesting Business
Concerning the Grounds.
The Directors of the local Players' clnb held
a meeting in Mayor McCallin's office yesterday
afternoon. Tne principal business was to dis
cuss the plans for fixing up the new crounds at
Exposition Park. Several contractors were on
hand with their terms to do the work, and some
good contractors at that. After considerable
discussion it was resolved that an architect,
the Major, Manager Hanlon and Mr. W. W.
Kerr visit the grounds to-dav and determine in.
what position the crand stand will be placed.
The object is to keep the spectators as much
from the effects of the suu as possible, and the
stand may be placed near the corner where the
entrance is at present. At anv rate it is in
tended to make it one of the best stands in the
country, and this can be done without much
expense. The diamond will be "sodded," or in
other words, it will be a turf diamond. When
the balance of the grounds have been filled up
seed will be sown, so that the entire grounds
will eventually be a handsome lawn.
Other matters of less importance were talked
over, and Manager Hanlon was given authority
to confer with Manager Ward relative to a
short trip South with the Brooklyn team. Re
garding this. Manager Hanlon said-
"Chicago is going an ay much too soon for us,
and 1 think we can arrange a short trip with
the Brooklyns. I don't believe in long trips
before tbe season opens, as the players are
likely to get tired and weary."
P1TT6BDKG ALL EIGOT.
No Danger of Ir Brioc Dropped From the
Players' Li-nene.
CHICAGO, January 22. "There isn't one word
of troth in the published reports to the effect
that Pittsburg is to be dropped and St. Louis
added to tbe Players' League," said Secretary
Brunell tonlay. "Tbe truth of the matter is
that Pittsburg is one of our strongest
cities and will be in this fight to a finish.
What I said in St. Louis has been twisted into
a dozen different forms. My actual statement
was that I thought St Louis an excellent base
ball town and that most likely to be recognized
In case any break occurs in tbe Plavers' League
circuit. There is no danger of a break at pres
ent, and so St. Louis is not in it."

The Cleveland Brotherhood President Says
Some Sensible Thine How His Ball
Team Cnn Succeed He Won't
Sue Pitcher Beatin. -
rsrECIJLL TELEGRAM TO THE EI8FATCUJ.
Cleveland, January 22, Al Johnson Bays he
doesn't intend to rely upon public sympathy lor
success next summer.
"I am perfectly aware of the fact, said he, in
discussing the subject, "that unless I can fur
nish as good or a better article of baseball than
the League people do, I will be in tie soup. As
I look at it, the only thing for me to do will be
to get un a better team and one that will stand
higher in its class than tbe League clnb. This
isn't going to be as easy a task as some folks
might think. The League clnb, as at present
made up, contains some good ball players
There isn't anv nse in trying to deny that
Beatin is a great pitcher. He is one of the
very best in the country, and there is every
reason to believe that he will be even better
next season than be was a year ago.
"Do I intend to proceed against Beatin
legally? No; I shall never tnrn over my hand
against him. Ihen they have McKcan and
Gilks. They are both first-class players, but 1
don't know yet whether they will play with the
Learue next season or not. They certainly
won't if I can prevent them. Zimmer we don't
hear much about lately. He may not play at
all next season, and it's my opinion that he
doesn't want to. He still has my 200 advance
money.
"Now, as to my team. I've strengthened it on
first base, and I nope in tbe field. I shall keep
four out fielders through the season, so that in
case any of them shall be disabled we will have
a man ready to fill in, I intend to have three
good catchers, not cnuntincSnyder, who mayor
may not play next snmmer. He will be kept
on the team whether he plavs or not. I shall
also have another good pitcher, and I hope
to secure Robinson far the short field. All this
talk about him not wanting to come here is
poppycock. He has never intimated to me
that he doesn't want to come to Cleveland.
But if he should object to plavmg here, why I
shall get some equally good man to fill the va
cancy. I may as well say right here that Pete
Browning will keep sober next season if be re
mains in the Cleveland Brotherhood team. I
shall not have a regular manager of my club.
I look upon managers as very expensive lux
uries. One of my players will look after tbe
team's business affairs on tbe road, and my
Secretary, Mr. Coleman, will have charge of
the finance of the organization. For the rest,
the captain of the team will be held respon
sible. TO-DAI'S BIG MEETING.
Pointers Abont the Catherine of-tbe Kerr
League Mnffnntes.
There will be an important gathering of new
League magnates at tbe Hotel Anderson to
day. The Committee on Schedule and the Com
mittee on Supplies will convene at 10 o'clock.
John M. Ward, Al Johnson, representatives
from Chicago, Philadelphia and Boston will be
present. Speaking of the meeting last even
ing. Manager Hanlon said:
"I expect that the Schedule Committee will
go right ahead and complete onr schedule. Of
course it will not be so difficult now as formerly
to make a schedule, as the SO per cent system
operates all round. Of course we want Chicago
to open here.'"
Tbe Committee on Supplies will report as to
those who have put in bids to supply posters,
etc. "When a firm is selected." said Mr. Han
lon, "our club will give its orders. We will
ask for local bids for our score cards, and if we
cannot get what we want we will print our own
cards just as the old club does."
WOXT FIGHT M'ADLIf FE.
Slavlu, the Australian, Refuses an Offer
From tbo California Clnb.
Sax Francisco, January 22. The California
Athletic Club received a dispatch yesterday
from blavm, the Australian, refusing to fight
Joe McAuliffe, of San Francisco.
McAullffe, who was defeated by Peter Jack
sou, is so anxious to get another chance at the
colored champion that he posted a forfeit yes
terday for a match with Jackson at 5,000 a side.
McAullffe does not Care whether California clnb
gives a pnrso or not. Before Jackson went to
England he promised McAuliffe that on his
return be would give McAuliffe the first fight.
The Californian has good backers, men who
think be was not in shape when Jackson de
feated him so easily.

WAGES AND WBECKS
Are the Main Disturbing Elements in
the Coke Situation. '
THE TBOUBLE ON THE EAILROAD
Causes a Scarcity of the Necessary Shipping
Facilities.
MOBE BODIES BESCUED AT JOHNSTOWN
All the Lire Kews From Surrounding Communities Is
Three States.
Prices on coke remain unchanged, and the
supply is abont equal to tbe demand. Bail
road wrecks have interfered with shipments.
Many operators express a determination to
fight the wage question to the end.
ISFECIAI. TXLXGBAM TO THS DISPATCH. I
Scottdale, Pa., January 22. The coke
trade for last week was active, there being
an increase in shipments. Cars were plenty,
but the railroad could not handle them on
account of the wrecks on the Southwest
branch, which have been a very frequent oc
currence the past week. A landslide on the
Baltimore and Ohio road was also a great
barrier, causing a delay in Pittsburg and
"Western shipments of about 12 hours.
The snpply is abont equal to the demand.
Most of the consumers are stocking up as
they fear trouble with tbe workers. The
conference on February 3 is looked for to
effect a settlement if the miners' representa
tives are not extortionate in their demands.
The H. C. Frick Coke Company have in
operation all their ovens in the region save 170
ovens at Standard mines, near Mt. Pleasant,
and about 60 ovens at Lelsenring No. 3. The
former are idle because of tbe burning of tbe
slope and the company has a large number of
hands rebuilding it. The probabilities are that
they will be in operation shortly.
ALL CAUSED BY -WBECKS.
A few days ago S3 cars of coke were stocked
atMamouth on account of cars not reaching
that point, caused by wrecks. Calumet was
also compelled to shut down two days on this
account. There is very little talk of new oven
building at present, as the wage question is
prominent above all things in the coke busi
ness. As to the condition of trade an independent
operator said: "The coke trade is in splendid
condition and will continue so if there is no
hitch with the men. At present I do not think
there will be any difficulty and a satisfactory
settlement may be made, but If tbe operators
intend to fight, it will be a fight to tbe finish."
Another operator said: "We proposed to the
men at the last conference about what we will
give them, and I do not think there will be
amendments. Tbe large f urnacos all over the
conntry are stocking up. and if there sbonld be
a strike they would have enough ahead to do
them for a month. The trade is good at pres
ent, but we are giving tbe men good wages. I
know where many men at present are making
S2 0 and S3 per day." This seems to be the gen
eral opinion of the operators.
AN INCREASE OF SHIPMENTS.
There has been a good increase in Western
shipments over tbe last report. The shipments
for last week will indicate an increase of about
300 cars over the week before, and tbe total
wonld have been larger bad tbe railroads not
been hemmed in. They aggregate 6,900 cars,
and were distributed to points as follows: To
Pittsburg and river tinnles, 1,510 cars; to points
west of Pittsburg, 4.U50 cars; to points east of
Greensburg andConnellsville, 1.350 cars. Some
coke, as will be seen, was stocked. There has
been no change in prices reported, and they
remain the same: Furnace coke, SI 75: foun
dry coke, $2 05; crushed coke, $2 55. Freight
rates remained from ovens to points of con
sumption and prices for coke at other points
are the same as reported last week.

rSPECIAL TELEQBAU TO THE DISPATCH.!
Ne'WYobk, January 22. Theodore Bed
wood, engineer, and Charles "Willis, fire
man, on the Long Island Eailroad, were ar
rested and locked up to-day on the charge
of criminal carelessness. The two
men were in charge of the train that
left the station at Long Island City
this morning at 11 o'clock. It consisted of
two passenger cars, one baggage car.and the
engine and was bound for Oyster bay. The
passeDger cars were well filled. About half
a mile from the railroad yard the track
crosses a draw-bridge over the Dutchkill's
creek, which is about 40 feet wide at this
point.
This was wide open, and the train ap
proached it at full speed, the men in tbe
cab being entirely unconscious of the im
pending danger. The draw tender fortu
nately saw the engine approaching, and be
gan closing the bridge. The cowcatcher of
the engine was not ten feet from the edge of
the draw when the bridge' closed with a
bang, and the forward wheel of the locomo
tive struck the rail of the bridge a second
afterward.

Chairman Kisaer Ke-EIeettd, and Only a Little
Opposition Manifested.
Attempts to work up a boom for Pattison
and "Wallace were discouraged at the meet
ing of the Democratic Committee in Harris
burg yesterday. There was little opposition
to the re-election of Eisner as State Chair
man. Scranton gets the next meeting of
the committee. Mr. Foley, of Pittsburg,
created some laughter at the expense of
Harrisburg.
rSPECIAL TELIOnAM TO THE DI8FATCB.I
Habbisbtjbg, January 21. Democratic
leaders, attracted to this city by the meeting
of the State Committee, discouraged every
attempt to boost candidates for Governor,
fearing that such action might result in im
pairing the organization of the party, which
Chairman ICisuer says is in excellent shape.
The names of persons most frequently men
tioned in connection with the office of Gov
ernor were Wallace and Pattison, both of
whom have many warm admirers on the
State ticket. A few of the number favor
able to Pattisou wanted to work up a boom
for him, but they were dissuaded from car
rying out their purpose in the interest of
harmony.
As to the relative merits of Pattison and
"Wallace, there were many opinions. The
friends of the former urged that the ex
Governor would get thousands of Republi
can votes, while the "Wallace men claimed
that the ex-Senator was the man to nomi
nate, as he was a thorough organizer and
would conduct the liveliest kind of a
campaign.
kisner's vindication- complete.
Chairman Eisner received a complete
vindication at tbe bands of the Democratic
State Committee to-day in his re-election by
an almost unanimous vote. He had some
outspoken enemies on the committee from
Allegheny and several other western coun
ties, and various schemes were considered to
compass his defeat. One of the great
troubles experienced in securing such a re
sult was the failure to obtain the consent of
a good man to enter the race with Kisner
lor the chairmanship.
This drawback improved Eisner's chances
gradually, and as a final resort to stem the
tide which had set in for him, Kisuer's op
ponents held a conference and unanimously
decided to support James M. Gufley, a mil
lionaire oil dealer of "Westmoreland county,
who, it was declared, would stand as a can
didate for the chairmanship. Sir. Guffey's
candidacy was short-lived, lasting only-
enough to enable Committeeman Eline, of
Westmoreland, to present his name and
extol his virtues, which he said would give
life and tone to the Democratic organiza
ion of Pennsylvania.
ONLY A LITTLE KICKING.
The committee meant business from the
start, and accomplished its work expedi
tiously and without much friction. "W. J.
Brennen, who was substituted for Chairman
Watson, of Allegheny county, and who has
no love for Eisner, was unanimously elected
Temporary Chairman, and in return for the
unexpected compliment bestowed on him re
ferred in pleasant terms to Eisner after that
gentleman's re-election. Patrick Foley, of
Pittsburg, who was prominently identified
with the Western movement to defeat Eis
ner, dissipated all organized opposition by
having a letter read from James M. Guffey
stating that, alter fully thinking the matter
over, tie bad concluded he would not stand
as a candidate lor chairmanship.
A motion was then made to elect Eisner
unanimously, but several of the Western
delegation entered their feeble protest by
answering "no." Chairman Eisner prom
ised his best service for the Democratic
cause until after the election, and said his
success meant ten months more of hard
work. B. M. Head was re-elected Secretary
of the committee.
PATRICK FOLEY'S WIT.
The electric city of Scranton was too mag
netic tor Harrisburg, and attracted the next
State convention away from it Ex-Senator
Coxe, of Luzerne, and other prominent poli
ticians joined the Scranton delegation last
night in the contest in the interest of that
city, and when that committee met it was
evident that the prize would go to Scranton.
This sentiment received a fresh impetus
when ex-Senator Coxe advocated its adoption
in the interest of the Lackawanna, Luzerne
and Schuylkill Congressional districts,
which, he said, were doubtful, and the
Democrats would be greatly assisted by
having a State convention at Scranton.
Patrick Foley, of Pittsburg, favored Scran
ton, because in the middle of summer he
had met "icicles in the streets of Harris
burg." WHY IT SEEMED FRIGID.
There was considerable merriment over
this intimation that the people of this city
were frigid, as the members of the commit
tee well remembered how Foley and several
of his friends had been frozen out of the
Democratic State Convention two years ago.
As tbe vote tor the place of the meeting of
the next State Convention progressed,
Scranton largely led, and Harrisburg was
withdrawn and the electric city unani
mously chosen.
A resolution was adopted by a standing
vote deploring the death of John G. Hall,
Lewis C. Cnssidy, Franklin B. Gowen and
E. Jfilton Speer. Eemarks were made on
party organization by "W. F. Whitney, of
New Tork, and on tariff reform by Mr.
Ayres, of Philadelphia, and E. H. Bauch,
of Mauch Chnuk, alter which the committee
adjourned.

Philadelphia, January 22. Patrick
Foley, the well-known Democratic leader of
Allegheny county, accompanied by John
"W. Jiles, Joseph S. Smith, John "W. Eck
ols and John E. Ennis came down to this
city from the meeting of the Democratic
State Committee and registered at the Gi
rard Houe.
When asked his opinion of the coming
contest for the Democratic nomination for
Governor, Mr. Foley said:
"It is my intention to go info the Demo
cratic State Convention and to cast my vote
in favor of the nomination of my old arch
enemy, "William A. "Wallace, of Clearfield
county. I have attended a number oi State
conventions in my time, but I have never
yet voted for "Wallace. I shall vote for him
in the coming convention because I believe
he is the best man our party can name."
John E. Ennis expressed himself in very
vieorous terms in favor of Mr. "Wallace's
nomination for Governor, and intimated
that uearly all of tbe delegates to the com
ing State Convention from the "Western
part of the State will be in line for "Wallace.
Chairman HcCauley, "of the Elk County
Democratic Committee, in speaking on the
subject said: "I personally lavor the nom
ination by the Democratic State Convention
for Governor of "William A. "Wallace, of
Clearfield. Wallace is a fighter and capable
organizer, and with him as our candidate I
feel perfectly confident as to what the out
come of tbe fight will be."

The Servla Reaches Port After an Encounter
With a Hnrricane.
rSPECIAL TXLXOBAU TO TUB DISFATCB.I
New Yoek, January 22. The' overdue
steamship Servian arrived to-day. She
never made a slower voyage or a
more tempestuous one. From the tfme
she left Queenstown at 1 o'clock
on the afternoon of January 12,
she had a daily fight with fierce and lofty
seas and westerly gales. The series of galea
wound np in a hurricane that came
gyrating off the coast of Nova
Scotia on Friday last. It was
a common occurrence for the ragged crests
of tall seas to tall aboard the ship, covering
her decks with ice and crystalizing on her
spars and rigging. From noon on Friday
until noon on Saturday she made only 142
miles. Her best day's run was 341 miles. She
was decorated with frozen spray, dashed
over her by the local gale when she steamed
up to her pier. The wind at quarantine
was so strong that the mail boat was unable
to take off the Servia's mail.
The Servia passed, when about 600 miles
out of Queenstown, a lot of bnllock. They
may have come from some cattle ship other
than the Erin, which apparently was
wrecked much farther west. Nearly all the
steamships long overdue were reported at
Halifax to-day.

disciple in Boston who has been

who said he had just come from Boston,
where his countrymen told bim that the
llelican "Eong-foo-qyee" (Confucius) was
living in New York.
He was making inquiries for the address
of "Ing Goo Soo Lee. He said he wanted
to go and burn joss sticks before him, and
probably take him a roasted pig or two if he
finds bim as recrespnted, instead of wasting
money on paper josses. This pious China
man said he was J a Ah Ling, a retired tea
seller.
SALE OP THE SCIOTO TALLET.

The road is in excellent condition, and is
considered as valuable property. A portion
of the equipments, under mortgage, was sold

Under the plan of reorganization, it is
understood, the road will be made part of a
