5 WE'LL GET PFEFFER. The Local Consolidation Deal Means That Famous Second Base man Will be Onrs. MIKE KELLY WILL KOT Bft LEFT. Kr. Addison, of Chicajjo, Makes a Fair Offer lo Sell Out, Which Will Likely be Accepted. PLATERS FOR THE KEW LOCAL TEAM. Fttetedmgi cf the K L. Amcsl Heetmg-thsenl Sport ing Hews of the Day. At this stacc of the chance of the com plexion of things as far as baseball is con cerned it may not be oat of place to state a fact or two that has been agreed upon by the local magnates of the consolidated clnbs. To say that Fred Pfeffer will be second base man here next ytar may cause doubt in many minds; but so far as arranged he will be here, and when the fact was stated to the writer last evening by a man who knows a by stander remarked 'And more power to Fred." The truth is that one of the features of con sideration, as far as Mr Auten, of Chicago, was concerned, was that Fred Pfeffer would pla second base in the Pittsburj; club. Mr. Auten said: "I hare a friend whom I wish to protect in this breaking up." "Who and what is your man?" said Mr. O'Neil. Mr. Auten replied: I want Mr. Pfeffer to be in this team ' Why, everybody agreed to that and after Mr. Auten had mentioned Pfeffer's figure every body agreed to it. so that Mr. Auten went home to tell the genial Fred that he can play here. There is no donbt whatever but that Mr Auten knew his business in talking about Pfeffer's engagement, and certainly in Pfeffe. Pittsburg will really bat e the best second that has ever been in a Pittsburg club. The idea and tne determined intention of the local consolidates is to have a team that wilt for once be "in it." It is known that Mr. hjialding will waive all claim on Pfeffer, in fact, Mr. O'Xeil's late viMt to Chicago means that all that has been fixed. Anson has a team that he does not want to change, and he wrote to Pittsburg a day or two ago to the effect that any city could have all the "great" players, but ho wanted only his lot of last year. Many rumors hate been floating during the last day or two about whoe nead would fall" and such like. Hanlon will be here as center fielder, and Becklcj will be on first base, fetaley and Galvm will be among the pitchers, and a successful effort will be made to retain Tommy Quinn. Corcoran will be on the team jut as sure as Hanlon is there, ana that is snre enough. Mr Auten will get one or two good men and so will Hanlon, and altogether there is for once a prospect of Pittsburg having a real good team. For a time all the efforts of tne new con certed power will doubtlessly be descried bv some people whose wishes of seeing people and the game going to ruin have not been fulfilled. But depend upon it that there will be a startler or two made known as far as the make up ol the local team is concerned. It is now no longer a question of P. L. or N. L., buta ques tion of getting one good team for Pittsburg. Those who trj to prevent it are no friends of the game or of the patrons of the game in this vicmitj. THE JIGJS UP. That's M liat the lintern Authorities Say About the Plajers League Players Hashing to the Old Fold, lVhero Tliey Were Protected. rf'ECIAL TM.EGRAM TO THB DIBrATCH.1 Sew York, November 12. Like a dying man, the P. L. has clutched desperately at the last straw. The League has already sunk twice, and has come up again for the last time. The cry of help goes up, but not a soul who bears it will go to the rescue. Not a millionaire is in sight. They have all aisapneared. and the big ship which threatened to float in triumph before the American public has struck a rock, and tor days has been floundering abont with out a hand at the tiller. IThe National League magnates held their regular annual meeting to-day at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, More of them were present than have been at any other meeting thev ever held. They bail not been called to attend the wake of the Plavers' League, but they did to nicht. That body is dead, but the last sad obsequies have been put off for a couple of days, when the corpse will be laid away for iter. Before the week is out no talk will be forthcoming from minor individuals and paid shouters of the Players' League as to that organization keeping on next season. The National League magnates are preparing to thron a bomb that is entirely unexpected. The players are already beginning a stampede back to the National League magnates. Those who are coming are doing it quietly. They lealize that the jig is ur. To-night Mike Kelly had a secret talk with A. G bpaldinc. Kelly waited around the en trance of the I- ifth Avenue, hid in the dark-ne-, until the meeting of the League was over. He tent word to A. G Spalding that be wished to see him as soon as possible. Spalding was .iwny be! ore anybody realized it. A Dispatch reporter found them in the outside vestibule stowed awav in a dark corne. Nothing of Miecial interest was done at the N. L. meeting. The magnates met at 1J.30. The session lasted until 4 o clock, iteports were adopted, com mittees appointed, officers elected and some minor alterations made in the rules. Then the meeting adjourned till 7 o'clock and at 8 o' lock it adjourned till to-morrow. J Palmer O'Ncil showed the signed consoli dation papers of the Pittsburg clubs to a Dis patch reporter to-night, and also told bow the consolidation took place. He said that at the Philadelphia meeting the Pittsburg P. L. dele gates were insetted by the Boston people, who told the Pittsburg men that if they could not jmt up money for next season they could get out. Tbe came back to Pittsburg and notified Mr. O'Neil that a settlement might be effected. All came together and Mr. O'Neil told them that settlement could be made on a 50 per cent bas s, but that it must be made then and there. Thfre was no discussion at all. but be fore half an hour was up the agreement had been signed. The Pittsburg team, Mr. O'Neil states, will next t-caon be as follows: Pitcners Maul, Galvin, J. Smith, Staley, Catchers Mack, Decker, Berycr. Infieldefs Becklej, Pfeffer, Miller, T. Cor coran. Outfielders Burke. Hanlon. Fields. The move that is to be made is to buy out all the P. L. clubs, excepting the Boston and Phil adelphia clubs. A very bitter feeling exists acainet Al Johnson, as he is the one who started the Brotherhood, and is called the "Mother" of the P L. But it is possible, in order to please the plajers, who think much of Johnson, that an offer will be made to bun for Ills plant He ma) be given the Cir cinnaticlub. 'ihe way things are Johnson's club is doomed an-wa), and if he gets a cent it w ill be only because the N L. desires to act in a pertecth honorable wav. John B. Day was asked if the Cle eland IN. L. people would be allowed to make any offer they saw fit. I don't think they Kill have the say," said Mr. Day 'It may be left to a third partv to appraise the value of Johnson's baseball belongings." Johnson had a chance to make a compromise, but at the last minute be went back on it. This morning, just as the League met, a telegram wasrecei-ed from Pittsburg, stating that Ad dison, or Chicago, would dispo.se of his club for S 000. He had been offered by Snalding S15.W0. The price will probably be paid. In Philadelphia the Players' League club will be given a chance to join the American Associa tion. The only club that will be likely to suf fer or, in fact, frozen out. will be the Boston Players' League club. There is no place for it in any League. The lastgranu "bluff" of the Players' League w ill be played.to morrow When the news was received from Pittsburg that the new confer ence committee made up of Prince, Johnson and Ward was on the way to this city to confer with the National League, a smile went 'round thecucle of magnates. This committee will ni-ver have an opportunity to say anything as a bodj to the National League. "We might treat with such a committee if there was not a member of the Brotherhood in it," said John B. Day. A DOLEFUL ENDING. The P. I- Delegates Adjourn and Resolve to Talk AVaii the N. L. People. There are few things to say about the last day of. .the Players' League annual meeting. The 'defecates resolved yesterday to adjourn subjective to the call of the Chairman or any official who has the authority to call another meeting. The Players' League bat been ths recipient of an awf al thump and that thump baa teen administered by its very best friends. The latter di-covered that yesterday when the res ignations of the Pittsburg and New York CI nbs were presented and enforced. Of course officials of the P. L. denied that these resigna tions bad been tendered. Bat they wera. To make all stories and conflicting state ments clear, Colonel McAltin said yesterday afternoon at the Hotel Dnquesne: "I represent the New York club, and I say that we are just as we have been. If the other clubs do not come to terms with tbair rivals we can and we have tendered our resignation to the Players' League. II the! other clubs aon't make matters up so as to end this fight, why we reserve the right to leave the organization. We are not going to make fools ot ourselves and the public any longer. That's how New York stands." The meeting resumed proceedings at 10 A. M. yesterday. There was little done except what is stated above. The conference committee were instructed to consult with the representa tives of the N. L. to-morrow. That committee, Messrs. Prince, Johnson and Ward, will be in New York to-day. There was no news of inter est about the P. L. annual meeting. The Dig Game. New Yoke, November 12.

The Murdered Man's Brother-In-Law Sus pected, lint the Coroner's Jury Say They Don't Know Who Committed the Mur der Officers Hat e a Clew. Merced, Cal., November 12. Who murdered John Qoett, the wealthy rancher at Suclling, is still unknown. Quett was found lying upon his face in a pool of blood with one foot in the cellar door, and under him was a piece of whip, which none of the ranch hands recognize. Drs. Cassidy and O'Brien state that every bone in the mur dered man's bead was broken by the force of a blow. The key of the cellar and a lamp were found beside him. The murderer had struck the blow just as the old man opened the door, it is supposed to treat his guest to wine. In Quett's study was found a half-finished letter to his wife, who was in San Francisco, hut has now returned. August Olsen, Quett's brother-in-law, has been on the ranch since Thursday afternoon. Later he lelt, saying he might return that night or go to his mother's, near La Grange. Quett insisted on his returning to the ranch, and this Olsen admitted on examination. He also admitted he carried a hammer to Quett's on Fridav, but claimed to have lost it from his saddle, where it had been tied. He identified as his a rope bridle which was shown him, and when asked how he ac counted for spots of blood on the rope said he did not know. On being asked if he cut his finger lateiv, he said: "I don't yes, I did scratch mv finger. It might be from that." The Coroner's jury returned a verdict, after an hour's deliberation, that Quett was murdered bv some one unknown. The Sheriff and officers, however, are still on the ranch, and it is believed they have a clew, as the bloody lootprints of the murderer have been accurately measured.

He Has at Last Been Eesnrrected From ilia Cheerless Tomb, TO B BROUGHT 10 SPEED I TRIAL lSrECIAL TELXQRAX TO THE DISPATCH. 1 Vakcebukg, t., November 12. That is a story stranger than fiction which has come to light in the old jail of this county. Buried in its stout walls for 22 years has Uvea in a veritable tomb John Blyen. He came into the jail a robust young man; now he is past the half century mark, and his gray hair tells how the years have borne upon him. One August night in 1868 someone broke into the house of James Foster, back in the hills, and the entire family of four persons were-chopped to death with an ax, which, smeared with blood, was found on the floor. ARRESTED FOR ME MURDEK. A few days later Blyen was arrested for the crime, and, the court opening in two or three davs, he was arraigned for trial. Most of the witnesses against the defendant were negroes, and on the plea that the State law did not permit blacks to testify against whites, the defense bad the case removed to the United States Court, which was about to sit. At its session Blyen was convicted and sentenced to bang on January 22, 1869. At this point the State's Attorney inter fered and appealed the case to the United States Supreme Court. Three years passed before that body acted on the matter and ordered a new trial in the State court. Iu the meantime a new Prosecuting At torney and a new Jadge had been elected, and the case was postponed time and again. By and by it was dropped altogether. THE CASE ENTIRELY FORGOTTEN. Then it was forgotten and for years has been as though it were not. It was not long until the townspeople !forgot BIyen's exist ence. Until within 24 hours there were young men and women who had never heard BIyen's story. His family has about disappeared. It is doubtful if two living witnesses can be be found. It is said that even the present Judge did not know of the case, though it was no fault of his. It has been determined to try Blyen at the next term of court. He has spent so many years in prison that be thinks of no other home and has lost all interest in out side affairs. He has seen two mobs attack the jail, and, gaining entrance, lynch three persons. He has seen half a dozen men go out to death on the scaffold, or a life sentence in the penitentiary. Now, after 22 years in a county jail, a resurrected man as it were, he is to iace a judge and plead to the charge of murder. It is doubtlul if he can be convicted, and many believe he should go free.

AN ORIGINAL SCHEME For Ridding Railroad Freight Trains of the Tramp Nuisance. rsrECIAL TXLIOBAM TO THS DISrATCB.1 Reaping, November 12, Special Officer Barnbart, of the Reading Railroad, adopted a brilliant and-successful scheme to rid the road of that well-known pest; the train-jumper. All efforts to stop the practice were useless until that officer took a hand, and now train-jumpers are very scarce. There is a high and long bndge ont of town, and when the officer saw a crowd climb on a freight train, ai usual, he determined to make an example of them. He quietly took: a seat in the cabooe, and when in the middle ot the bridge, the train was brought to a stop. The train bands then went along the cars, and picked np a round dozen shivering culprits, who were either obliged to submit to capture, or jump into the river, and the former alterna tive was adopted in view of the fact that the latter meant a long and cold swim. The cul prits were all hauled up into Court and fined 110 and costs, and sent out as a warning to others. Maryland Synod Meeting. rSFECIAI.

This spir ited animal is a high stepper, and to that extent therefore may be called a high charger. In this re spect he fails to re semble Jackson's, whose charges are moderate to the last degree. There is also another great difference between the steed and the great clothing house of Jackson's. They have an infinitely larger variety of Fall Overcoats on hand than any ani mal could be expect ed to carry at one time. Those who purchase one of them will never be anxious to unload it.
