TUESDAY, MARCH 4, 1890.

St v r
Dunlap Tackles Hanlon on an
Interesting Matter.
THE MANAGER'S OPINION.
Secretary Branell Sends a Spicy Let
ter to the League Magnates.
THE SPORTLNG NEWS OF THE DAT
There is a misunderstanding between
Manager Hanlon and Fred Dunlap, regard
ing the latter's status in the new League.
Dunlap confers with Hanlon. The League
magnates meet at Cleveland. Brunell
writes a significant letter to President
Young. Several local dog fighters are to be
arrested.
Fred Dunlap is not disposed to be cast to
one side by anybody without knowing the
reason why. The well-known second base
man arrived in the city yesterday morning,
and his mission here is to find out definitely
whether he is to be a Brotherhood man or a
unit in the National League. There is
certainly a bie misunderstanding between
.himself and other promintnt Brotherhood
member, and it seems as if Fred's salary of
last year. So, 000, is a little too steep for the new
League people to renew.
To a reporter Dunlap stated his case as fol
lows jesterday:
DUSTLAP EXPLAINS.
"lam here for two purposes," said he. "I
want to know where I stand. It is true I told
Hanlon In New York recently that I wouldn't
play under him, but vihat right has the Play
ers' League to release me? I have returned
the release Hanlon sent me. They won't fool
with me. How is Hanlon manager of this club?
The understanding was that the players should
vote on manager and captain, but I can't see
where they were given a chance to do it The
stockholders put him in likel. I don't sup
pose they think they can force me out, and give
the cream of the Players' Leasue to these As
sociation plavers w horn they sign.
' I have paid my dues for years in the Brother
hood, aud liavo as much right to its benefits as
any other member. Hanlon Ins roasted me in
the pipers, but did I repl. No, I didn't. Jly
time will come."
'Will ou stick to the Players' Leaguer'
"I can't tell just jet. The Brotherhood is a
success that is certain. Yes, I guess the old
club people will take me back, borne people
saj that I didn't plaj my g-iine last year. Didn't
I lead the second basemen? How does it come
that Hanlon wasn't abused for poor ball plaj
ingj He certainly did some. I won't lack an
engagement. There is a certain Leagne club
that stands ready to take me right away."
MUST BE TEEATED EIGHT.
Dunlap is determined that he shall be treated
properly by the Players' League. He thinks he
has been one of the worst treated men. He was
down for stock in the Pittsburg Club, but it
wasn't given him.
In reply to this Manager Hanlon last evening
said: "I met Mr. Dunlap to-day and he cer
tainly did not talk to me in that strain. He
told me that he was here merely on a trip be
cause he had a free pass on the railroad. He
is wrong when he savs players have to vote for
managers. They can i ote for directors, but
that is all.
OXLT HIMSELF TO BLAME.
"If Mr. Dunlap is in any kind of difficulty he
has only himself to blame. I have his own
written statement to the effect that fie would
not play under my management, and I havo
also a written application from Mr. Love, of
Philadelphia, for his release. This application
is indorsed by Mr. Dunlap and I submitted
these letters to our directors. Of course, w hen
Mr. DunlaD stated that he would not play here
tbey could do nothing else but give him his
release. He got it and then It seems that the
Philadelphia club did not feel inclined to cive
him $a,000 for the season. o offered him
$4,000 as last y ear. $500 ot his salary was for
being captain. We have nothing to do with
Mr. Dunlap and it is to Philadelphia that he
must look because we filled his place here
after he requested and received his release."
MOBE FROM BRUNELL.
The Players Lencne secretary Sends a
Startler to tbe League Magnates
He Wants Everybody to
Shake Hands and
be Friends.
Chicago, March 3. An astonishing com
munication was made public to-day by General
Secretary Brunell, of the Players' League
The surprise is in the apparent disclosure,
more or less complete, that the supposed am
mosity andnvalry between the Players' organi
zation and the National League is largely in
tbe nature of a blind to the public It would
seem that the two Leagues are to be regarded
as practically Identical a pair of wings for
tbe same money making machine. The
idea as near as can be inferred ie, it would
seem, to have the twin Leacnes go through the
motions of antagonizing each other, so far as
gate receipts can be increased by that method,
but when dividends cannot he furthered in
such a manner, then tbe Leagues are to co
operate. The whole thing in a nutshell would
appear to be that, as rumored at intervals since
the famous split, the baseball men understand
the art of forming trusts and pool-making pre
cisely as practiced in other business enter
prises. The pos'ibdity is distinctly f sreshad
owed that even before the season is opened, the
warring factions" will be playing together for
revenue only.
The following is Secretary Brunell's letter.
Cuicaoo, III., February 28, 1S90.
If. F.Young, hsq.. president and Secretary Na
tional Leagued Baseball Clubs, Washington:
DAR Sib 1 beir to inform tbe National Learne
through you that the schedule prepared by the

Hew York, Brooklvn, Philadelphia, Jflttsburc,
Cleveland and Chicago
Mavl also suggest that the National League
adoota resolution permitting Its clubs to play
against those or the Players' National League
berore and after the championship season of both
Leagues. Such permission being granted. It
would also be necessarv for the National League
to repeal Its un-American resolution, which
'boycotts" all clubs playing against those or our
organization, as well as any clubs which mav
play with a club which has played against a.
Players' National League club. '
1 trust that I shall receive a reply before the
spring meeting or our organization, March IL
1690. Yours trulv.
P. H. Bpcsell.
A dispatch from Cleveland says: Secretary
Brnnnell's communication was shown President
Young, wno smiled as be said:
That is similar to mysterious letter which has
been awaiting my arrival at the WeddeUL and
which has been talked of by the papers. His
proposition to me eaect mat the .National
League adopt a resolution allowing its clubs
to play with those of the Brotherhood conla
not be accepted because it would be a violation
of the National agreement, and I do not think
the National League would be a party
to any violation of it. His proposition that the
"unAmerican resolution" which boycotts all
clubs playing against those of the Brotherhood
be repealed will not be accepted,
either. Such a thing would be im
possible, for that is one of the funda
mental principles of the National Agree
ment. The League could not repeal that reso
lution without tbe consent of the American As
sociation, which is a partv to tbe National
Agreement. It would not bn considered.
"I have nothing to say to the League's ac
tions concerning conflicting dates. The Sched
ule Committee prepared its schedule without
any regard whatever to the Brotherhood. No
notice of such an organization was taken.
When I arrived this afternoon I showed Mr.
Brunell's letter to eome of the members, and
that was our first intimation of what their
schedule would be. I have never until to-day
received any communication from Mr. Brunell,
and more, the schedule has not been changed.
I cannot very well give an opinion on the ad
visability of chanafng it so as not to conflict, in
fact, I do not know whether the two conflict or

THE LEAGUE MAGNATES.
Thcr Sleet In Cleveland Little Trouble Ex
peeted Recanting the Schedule An
son Writes an Important Let
tcr to Spalding About
Chicago Players.
Cleveland, O., March a The Weddell
House is the headquarters for the officials of
the National League or Baseball Clubs and the
wide corridors are thronged to-night. The fol
lowing delegates to the meeting, which begins
to-morrow, arc already here: John B. Day and
C. T. Dillingham, New York: A. H. Soden and
W. hi. Conant, Boston: W. M. Nimick, J. Pal
mer O'Neill and A. K. Scandrett, Pittsburg;
John T. Brush. Indianapolis; A. G. Spalding,
Chicago, and N. E. Young. President of the
League, Washington. Representatives from
Washington, Brooklyn, Cincinnati and Phila
delphia will amve in the morning.
The Schedule Committee, consisting of
Soden, Spalding and Nimick, met at 12 o'clock
to arrange a table ot dates for the season.
Iheir work was in the nature of a report to be
nresented at the recular meeting to morrow.
Each of the three members of the committee
had prepared a schedule, and the meeting was
for the purpose of deciding upon which to rec
ommend for adoption. Nothing could be
learned regarding the dates assigned the differ
ent clubs, as the committee thought it best not
to mako anything public until after it has been
fully determmea now many ciuds snau consti
tute the League this season. It seemed to be
the general opinion Monday morning, that
there would be no change from the present
make up.
I ha e prepared a regular ten-club schedule,"
said Soaen, who is Chairman of the committee,
"and I believe Messrs Spalding and Nimick
have done likewise. We have all experienced
more or les trouble in arranging things to suit
everybody with a ten club league, but I guess
we have it fixed now so that none of us will
have much cause for complaint. If such a
thing as a reduction in the number of our
clubs should be determined upon Tuesday, we
can fix up an eight-club schedule in a short
time."
"I received a personal lettpr from Anson yes
terday," said Spalding, "in which he told me to
be sure and not take back a single one of the
ola members of last year's Chicago club and to
sign no more men at all unless I can run across
a first-class pitcher. It will only be fair to
show you the letter from Brunell to Young and
get statement in reply to it. '
Manager Schmeltz. of the Clevelands, came
up from Columbus this morning. Ho is bub
bling over with confidence in the League's
ability to make short work of the Brotherhood.
feecretarv Han ley and Treasurer Howe, of
theClevelands, resolved themselves into an im
promptu reception committee to wecome their
fellow magnates to the birthplace of the
Brotherhood. The "million dollar" offer was
generally laughed at whenever the subject was
mentioned. The prevailing opinion seemed to
be that the whole thmtr was a bluff. The dele
gates who have thus far arrived all seem bent
upon business, and it is the general understand
ing that this is to be the most important meet
ing the League has ever held.
WARD'S CASE,
Lawyer Duysters A.ks That It be Tried This
Term of Court.
New Yoke, March 3. The case of the Met
ropolitan Exhibition Company against John M.
Ward began in the Special Term of the Su
preme Court this morning. There was a notable
absence of baseball men.
George F. Duysters, counsel for the Metropol
itan Exhibition Company, asked the court to
place the case for trial during the present
month and referred to Judge O'Unen's Qe
cision when he denied the recent application
for an injunction against Ward, In which he
stated that the case ought to be tried before
April, and had stated in open court that If the
counsel would agree upon a day in February he
would use his efforts to have it placed on the
calendar.
Judge Howland said that it was meiely a pri
vate case and there was no reason why it should
be advanced.
Judge Lawrence, who had previously sug
gested that the counsel ought to go to Judge
O'Brien and ask him to enforce his order, took
the papers and said he would consult Judge
O'Brien and advise counsel hereafter.
Mr. Duysters expressed himself as highly sat
isfied with the decision. He thinks the case
will now bo tried during the present term of
court. Should it not be, he says, there will be
no use trying it at alL
WILL GO TO ENGLAND.
Will Burr Requested to Sail on Saturday
Next.
Will Barr, tbe well-known local amateur
baseball player, received a letter from A. G.
Spalding yesterday, stating that he, Barr, had
been, along with other young men. selected to
go to England to play ball there. Mr. Barr was
requested to sail from New York on Saturday.
He saw his employers, and at once made satis
factory arrangements, and he will therefore
leave New York on Saturday. His position in
the Pennsylvania Railroad offices will be kept
for him until he returns next fall
He is not to be a manager, but will be ex
pected to give to the young Britishers all in
formation he can about ball playing. His
salary will be S75 per month guaranteed. He
did not expect that he would be requested to
leave for England so hurriedly. His loss to the
Allegheny County League will be great, as he
was one of the chief supports of that organiza
tion. Three Teams jro South.
New York. March 3. John Ward and his
team of baseball players departed for the
South this afternoon. Tbey sailed on the
steamer Chattahooche for Savannah. There
was a large crowd of admirers to see the play
ers off. Ihe Philadelphia Brotherhood team
also sailed in tbe steamer Chattahoochee. Tbey
arrived trom Philadelphia at noon to-da. The
Brooklvn Bridegrooms left this afternoon on
tbe Clyde steamer Iroquois for the South. They
go to Jacksonville. Fla.
Will Sue Carroll.
It is stated that the lawyers of the local
League club have advised the club directors to
enter suit against Fred Carroll, or, in other
words, to apply for an injunction restraining
him from playing with the now club. This only
bears out the statement made in this paper
some time ago that each National League cf ub
will resort to legal proceedings wherever a
Brotherhood club is in the same city.

A cent Sam O'Brien.
Yesterday afternoon Agent O'Brien and As
sistant Agent Berryman, of the Humane So
ciety, went to McKee's Rocks to take a look at
the dog fight between "John Sullivan" and
"Jack the Ripper." They found the fight In
progress in a barn. There was a big crowd
present, too large for two men to raid, and the
agents adopted their old plan of taking names.
In the course of the fight P. Demnarst, who
was handling Sullivan, had the first joint of the
second finger of his left hand bitten off.
After the fight Agent O'Brien went to the
office of 'bquire Mills Bryan, at McKee's Rocks,
and made an information against F. Demnarst
as the owner of Sullivan and J. Daly as the
owner of Jack the Ripper, charging them with
dog fighting. While he was engaged Demnarst
came into the office and was arrested. Ho re
marked that "O'Brien was a wolf," and gave
bail for a hearing. Daly was also arrested and
put under bail.
Agent O'Brien has the names of 40 persons,
against whom he will bring suit. The crowd
was better than the average one in a financial
way, and there will be a neat, sum collected in
the shape of fines.
SDLL1TAN WON.
He Defeats Jack the Ripper In a One-Sided
Battle.
There was quite a large crowd of sports pres
ent to witness yesterday's dog fight in the West
End between Sullivan and Jack tbe Ripper.
The dogs are owned by local parties and the
battle was for $250 aside. They fought some
time ago, when The Ripper was the victor.
Yesterday, when the dogs were put into tbe
pit, they each weighed within a few ounces of
35 pounds. The betting, which was exceedingly
spirited, was at the rate of $20 to 815 on Sulli
van. The favorite fully justified the odds, as
he fought with the best ot it from the start.
He escaped punishment and chewed The Rip
per up terribly. The dogs were scratched seven
times and in the eighth scratch Jack tbe Ripper
turned tail and refused to fight longer. The
victory was then awarded to Sullivan. Ihe
fight lasted about an hour.
They Didn't Meet.
Owing to some misunderstanding the back
ers of McClelland and Priddy did not meet last
night in response to McClelland's challenge
yesterday. The parties will likely meet this
evening at 8 o'clock. It is rumored that Priddy
will not run any more until spring.
Sporting Notes.
Sunday cannot reoort here on March 15.
Several National League clubs will be glad
to take Fred Dunlap at any price.
HAM Day and others are trying to arrange a
three-hour foot race at Braddock.
Now that Mnldoon has left Kilrain he sayg
that Corbett made a child of Kilrain.
Dunlap cannot very well get things fixed up
to play here except an mfielder is released.
Secretary Brunell is certainly earning
his salary as far as writing letters is concerned.
Since Brunell entered into the arena we
have less effusions from Messrs. Rodgers and
Young.
Fred Dunlap stated last evening that he
and Hanlon had fixed things up. What was
there to fix up. Philadelphia must do the
nxingup.
Messes. Nimice: and Scandrett told the
Cleveland reporters Sunday that the Pittsburg
League club have the most popular players in
Pittsburg.
Efforts are being made to arrange a glove
contest for points between Joe Ridge and
Faddy McBnde, the latter to score two to
Ridge's one.
Frank Boyd, the clever young bantam
weight fighter, has been sick for several
months, and his friends will give him a benefit
In a few weeks.
Ike Harris and "Monday," the local pedes
trians, each put up 10 to run a quarter of a
mile yesterday at Cycle Park. When Harris
saw the race track be gave "Monday" S4 to de
clarethe race off.
Richard K. Fox has just spent 81,000 in
having the .PoJtce Gazette heavyweight cham
pionship belt fixed up. A dozen more heavy
gold bars and plates have been added to it with
a few precious stones.
The Chicago League Club will attempt to re
strain Fred Pf effer from playing ball this season
in the Brotherhood team. Injunction papers
are already in the hands of an officer, who will
probably serve them to-day.
Jilt, better known to tbe sporting fraternity
as "Red" Smith, who fought such a game battle
of 72 rounds against Jack Fallon, tbe Brooklyn
strong boy, is out with a challenge to meet any
one of the heavy weights of this city. Since
his fight with Fallon he has done little or no
lighting, but is now willing to meet any of the
big fellow s for a stake.

One Pole Does His Best to Do Up Another
In a Fight.
A row that may have a serious termina
tion happened yesterday afternoon in
Keeling row, at tbe head of South Twelfth
street. It seems that a Pole named Samuel
Kady and a number of companions of the
same nationality were having a celebration
at Kady's house. There was a keg of beer
on draught, and everybody seemed happy
until Kady and another man named Mine
Pasko got into a discussion. As usual a
row followed, during which Kady beat
Pasko over the head with a beer glass, in
flicting such injuries as to require three
hours of Dr. Donan's time and skill to
fix up.
Pasko was removed to his house near by,
and his wife subsequently appeared before
Alderman Snccop and entered suit against
Kady for aggravated assault and battery.
The defendant was arrested and held for a
hearing.
