r 6 THE PITTSBUEG "DISPATCH, SATDHDAT, JEEBRUAET 8, 1890. A How Bowe and TOte Are to l)e Hoped In. MB. KIMICK EXPLAINS IT. Efforts to Have a Minor Club in This City. League THE SPORTING KEWS OP THE DAT President 2f iraick explains how the law can reach Howe, White and Dnnlap. A charge of obtaining money under false pre tenses. Efforts are being made to have a minor league club organized in this city. Colonel Stone talks abont the threatened suits. Fogarty and Daily likely to be matched to fight Secretary Brunell talks about the Brotherhood umpires. President Nimick claims to have discov ered a way by which Eowe, "White and Dun lap can be effectively made to suffer for their abrupt desertion of the Pittsburg National League Club. The President, during a con versation yesterday alternoon, said: 'The reason why we have not mentioned the names of Kowe, White and Duulap along with others in connection with the in junction suits is because we have been mak ing inquiries about their special cases. I am now fully persuaded that we can reach them without trouble, and I'll tell you how. I will meution particularly the cases of Kowe and White. We paid about H000 for their releases last year and they received one naif of the money. A DEFINITE TOJDEESTAJfDUTG. "Now the money was paid on the thorough understanding that they would be with us for more than one season at least; in fact they signed a contract which stated their services would be at our disposal for this year. On this understanding we paid the money and on this understanding they were given ene-half of it. They now refuse to fulfill their agreement, al though they got the money, and if this is not obtaining money by a method of false pre tenses, 1 don't know what is. I think we have a good case against them. Dunlap's case is not so flagrant, but it is of a similar kind. He re ceived part of the money we paid for his ser vices and we expected to have these services a while longer. It seems to me that the public will see the injustice of such conduct as that of the players I have named." COLONEL STONE'S OPINION. Colonel Stone, the well-known lawyer, who is interested in the new local dob, was ques tioned regarding the threatened suits. He said: "In the first place. I don't think there will be an r suits entered, but if there are they will be of great benefit to the new club. It will give it any amount of free advertising, and there is no hope of the playrs losing. Victory will create additional sympathy for the new club and a speedier defeat for the old clnb. The latter will be beaten anyhow, bnt appeals to law will only accelerate that fatal day. As far as claiming damages is concerned, the old club directors have no case at all even on their own showing. along they have Deen claiming that they ave been losing mnney, and cer tainly there is law that will give them dam ages for a losing concern. Their case in all re spects is hopeless." To add to the liveliness of the local situation, Messrs. AL Pratt and Manager Torrevson have secured permission to put a New York and Pennsylvania League club in this city, if grounus can be secured, and Meadville joins the league named. Mr. Pratt returned from Jamestown yesterday, and last evening made the following statement: "At present there are only four clubs in the New York and Pennsyl vania League, viz., Erie, Jamestown, Franklin and Bradford. The desire is to have mx clubs, and if Meadville can organize a team Mr. Tor revson and myself will nut one in Pittsburg. providing we can secure the use of Recreation Park. TOEEETSOX IS HUSTLING. "Mr.Torreyson is in Meadville to-day,making endeavors to have a cluD there. Part of the stock has been subscribed, and I think the bal ance will be forthcoming. We have examined the matter thoroughly, and I feel certain that a clnb of the league I name will pay iu this city. The other clubi in the leagde arc anxious to have a team here. We can put some good minor league players in a team here at a com paratively small cost. Our team will not inter fere with either the old club or the new one." Mr. Nimick coud not be seen last evening relative to granting the minor league in ques tion the use of Recreation Park. Inasmuch as the minor club would never play here except when the National League club was away, it would seem tbat little or no objection could be urged against granting tbe use of it. Mr. Pratt reports that there is any amount of fun and activity in tbe New York and Pennsyl vania League. He said: "Everybody is in it for tbe love of it, and clearing dollars is not tbe object. The Spalding ball has been adopted an tbe League will be a success." Xew York League Players. New Yoke, February 7. So far the New York League Baseball Clnb has made public the names of the following players who have signed with the clnb for next year: Mickey Weich, whose pitching ability is so well known as to need no comment; Pat Murphy, who has made a brilliant record as a catcher; Mike Tiernan, one of the best out-fielders in the country, who is to receive $3,600 salary; John H.

Price returned to the city from Cleve land yesterday, and durincaponversition ex pressed the opinion that the Forest City will have another first-class, trotting meeting this year. He states that a very large amount of money will be offered as prizes. Referring to the absence of race meetings in Pittsburg, he said: 7"lt fitmre out that in conseauence of no meet ings nere mere is a great loss to iarmers ana stock raisers. There never was such a demand for trotting and pacing colts as at present, bat breeders in and abont Pittsburg have little or no opportunity to get their youngsters before the public; at least if they do they have to take expensive trips. If cood race meetings were allowed, just as they are at Philadelphia and other places, races could easily be arranged for these young horses, and the community would be all the better for it."

Therefore tho agreement made is void, and will not be recognized by the Board of Arbitration should the matter be placed be fore it.

President Hunter, of Common Council, stated that the ordinance was asking more from them than any other company. Mr. Ammon moved that section 2 of the ordinance be amended as the company de sired. This meant to pave only one foot on each side of their tracks. Mr. Jluehl bronner opposed this, saying that the ordinance was all right. Mr. Dalzell, of the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester line, remarked that they were not asking anything too much. Chairman McAfee suggested that the com pany was a long time abont paving their tracks. The Union line had promised to do the same thing when they got tbeir ordi nance thrqpgh Councils.ibut as yet failed to do the paving. The ordinance was finally amended that in case the company decided to construct an electric line they shonld only pave on each side of the tracks, but in case a cable line was put in they shonld pave all between tbe tracks.

LITTLE H0PEE0R THEJT. Leading Lawyers Tukr No Stock In the An archlsts Appeal lothe Supreme Conrt Some of tbe Possible Re sults of the Case. Chicago, February 7. Leading lawyers here in interviews say that in their judg ment the imprisoned Anarchists can receive no benefit whatever tbe decision of the United States Supreme Court may be; that there is no claim of error in the lower courts, and tbat if the Federal conrt holds that the prisoners should have been present in the Supreme Conrt when the sentence of the lower conrt was affirmed, its effect will merely be to send the prisoners before that tribunal for a reaffirmation of the sentence of tbe lower court. The lower court sen tenced them to be banged, and if that point is sustained they wonld have to undergo that penalty nnless they conld again pre vail on the Governor to commute their sen tences, as was done by tbe Governor in for mer case. State's Attorney Longenecker,when asked tor his opinion on the subject, said: "There is nothing in it, lor the reason that the defendants had their day in court. They had their constitutional rights in the Crim inal Conrt of Cook connty. The Snpreme Conrt simply passes on the case tried in the lower court. It is simply court of review. There can be no new evidence introduced for or against the petitioners, and all the Snpreme Conrt can do is to see if the lower conrt committed errors, and it cannot ren der final judgment It can only reverse, and il the errors are not such as to confirm conviction they are remanded to the lower court for trial." A dispatch from Springfield, 111., in re gard to the matter says: This qnestion has never before been raised in the annals of the country, and hence the action of the United States " Supreme Conrt will be eagerly awaited. Shonld it decide that the right ex ists to prisoners to be present in the State Supreme Court when final judgment is passed, then not only Fielden, Schwab and Neebe get a new trial, but Spies. Persons, Fischer and En gel illegally suffered the death penalty, and every inmate of the pris ons of the State whose case has received on affirmative judgment in the State Conrt without the prisoner being present in person has been illegally Imprisoned.
