Choynski is big and strong and fights at 170 or 175 pounds, and be is a terrific hitter, as hard as any man In the basiuess. with tbe exception of faullivan. It it more than probable, though, that Carroll, who is exceedingly shrewd, will not permit the New Zealander to fizbt outside his class. Besides. Fitzslmmons is under con tract to appear in different countries under the management of Parson Davifs for some time to couc. Therefore, tho chances fora meeting between Fitzsimmous and Choynski in the Im mediate future are very remote. Darrln and Priddy.

Thurman, of the American Baseball Asso ciation, returned lronijthe biff meeting in New York this morning. In an Interview he says; "The new board of baseball associations is a revelation in baseball circles. It is supreme in all.matters. Thev do the wore formerly done by the beads of three associations, bnt have greater power than ever before vested. They litre charge of players, umpires, scorers, in fact every thing. The umpires and scorers nill be appointed by tne board, tbo associations individually having nothing to do iu tbe'matter. "President Nick Young, of the League, ho will be Secretary of the bo-mt'tvlll have charge of the officials mentioned. (They will be ap pointed by him and be directly under his con trol, and will, of course! be on salary. 1 be plan of having tho scorers responsible to one man will secure uniformity aud justice to all concerned. A scorer may be hned or sus pended in case his action demands such disci pline. In case the minor league tinder the pro tection of the national agreement so request Air. Young may appoint aud have control of these umpires and scorcrs.In the. major as sociations there will be 15 umpires, four regular and one substitute for each. They may be transferred frum one association to an other if it be deemed best. Iho League ob jected to the umpires being taken from their control, but as their men are under President Yonnr, who also has charge or the others, they are subject substantially to the same govern ment as the others Tbe board will meet some time between February I, when the agreement goes into effect, ana J" eoruary 9,-when all sur plus players nassinto-tbelr control." Mr. Thurman could not say where the meet ing would be held, or tbe exact date. In speaking of tbe circuit as announced, and the reports nf probable failure of the Chicago clnb to materialize, hu said! "The circuit will be in the West Columbus, JVuilsville, feu Lonis and Chicago, and. in the East Baltimore, Phila delphia, Washington and Boston." It is under stood indirectly from good authority, that Elton Chamberlain, the Columbus pitcher, nill be one of the first to feel tbe power of tbe new Board, and that Baldwin was signed in anticipation of tbU action. It is claimed that Chamberlain js to be suspended, on accouut of some transactions in ,wulch he has been con cerned. Tbe Board intend to -do all in their power to elevate the game, and to see that gentlemanly conduct is the rulo both ou and off the field. R0BIS0NJSRIGHT. The Cleveland Prosident Strongly Objects to the Sales .System Because It Hurts 'Weak Clubs Johnson and Brush to Set tle Matters. 1HT-CIAC TXLEQKAX TO TRZ DISPATCH. I Cleveland, Jan. Zk The leading sensation in local baseball circles here during the week was tbe pronounced way in which President Frank Deli. Kobison, of the Cleveland clnb, came out in favor of a radical tnndificaticn of tho soles system Tbe gist of Mr. Itobisou's re marks is that the weaker clubs have always got tbe worst of it while this sales system was in vogue. That is, the teams with greater patron age and correspondingly greater gate receipts, can afford to pay more for the players they want, and the smaller cities, which need strength at all times, are compelled to Incur great financial obligation to secure it, or, if thev do not secure icaropoor drawing cards. In either case they are bound to lose, and it looks like a proper time to reform that condi tion of affairs in the baseball world. The Cleveland clnb officials have been hust ling all week to secure players for next year. With what result it is itupos-ible at the present timetotelk The crab wants another catcher, another pitcher, a second baseman and two out fielders. For pitcher and catcher it has made no choice as yet, but for second baseman there is no secret in saying that it would like very much to sign Childs, of last year's Syracuse team. No anxiety is felt, however, if the club should lose that opportunity, for Strieker is left, and Tebeau could probably play a good second base if he cared to. For outfielder, five men arc in view, anv one of whom would be a success. One who is wanted in particular is WilinOt, of Chicago, providing satisfactory terras could have been made w ith bim. Cleve land would like to hive had him in 1SS9. Davis can play left field equally as well as rleht and Wilmot would make agreatmau for center. From what is Whispered in baseball circles 1 : this place there is but very little doubt that John T. Brush and Mr. A. L. Johnson, of Cleve land, will come to an agreement regarding tbo Cincinnati club. Johnson is to straighten up matters with bis Players' League associates, and then both gentlemen will hold a conference at Cincinnati. The Clevelind club will go South with the Cincinnati clnb if suitable arrangements can be made. Grounds will be rented at Jacksonville and both teams take about three weeks of practice. Cleveland is on tho Schedule Com mittee this year and an arrangement may be made whereby Cleveland will open tbe season in Cincinnati and Pittsburg in Chicago. Cleveland would have beep very glad to have sinned Connie Mack, whom Pittsburg thought it had. but got fooled. It doesn't seem likely that Prince will endeavor to hold Mack in de Sauce of tbe general understanding that all players revert to their clnbs under the Na tional agreement. At least rive clubs In the Association and League are anxious to get some of Cleveland's surplus men. Tho club, however, is in no great hurry to dispose of them, aud Prosident Kobi son says be will not hasten matters nntil he finds what the League proposes to do about selling men. A TALK WiTH JOHNSON. The Cleveland Magnate Thinks That He and Brash Will Come to Terms. Cleveland, Jan. 21. Al Johnson is home from New York without much baseball news among his belongings. About the Cincinnati club he says: "1 had a long interview with Mr. Brush just before he left for Indianapolis. We exchanged views on the Cincinnati club aud may reach a satisfactory agreement. Urusn has gone to Indianapolis. We' will conduct our negotiations by letter, ana when we get to the point where wo agree we are to meet in Cincinnati, go overttie ground, aud effect tbe consolidation. "In order toget control of tbe Interest In the Players' League Club, of Cincinnati, 1 must se cure the stock of tho various holders. Mr. Brush suggests that, in view of the fact that alts of thejn have been benefited by their consolida tlon with the National League clubs, and I am the only one still unprovided for, it is only fair that they turn their stock over to me. so that X would be in a position to negotiate intelligently with Mr. Brush. lo accomplish this end IwiH have te communicate with the several holders, but I will do nothing in the matter until I con sult L. A. llu-sel!. Tnol'.ostnn-andPhlladel-phiapcople have already signified their willing ness to tnrn theXr stock over to me, free frum all encumbrances." . All tbe stock books, leases, and records of the Cincinnati clnb are In the Secretary's pos session in this city. SETTLED TEE'B ETBIFE. Linton Is Bought Out by the Brooklyn Mag nates for 810,000. New York, Jan 2k After a prolonged bat tle E. F. Linton, the dissenting stockholder of the Brooklyn Players' Leagne club, has sold out his interests in tbe organization and the proposed plan of consolidation between tbe Brookljn;, Limited, and the BrooRlyn Baseball Club, Limited, will be carried out. Linton's two Injunction suits against thenajority stock holders have been vacated, Linton was pacified at a meeting of the clnb stockholders at N. 316 Fulton .street, Brook lyn, yesterday morning.

The price to be paid was not givon out but it Is in tbe neighborhood of 310,000. After the meeting C H. Byrne bad a long talk with Wendell Goodwin about the signing of the consolidation papers.

Work will be begun on tbe Barbara, as the crart will be named, at once, and Liwley will build her. She will be a very handsome boat. The fact that a racing 46 footer is to be built on this side will give a great impetus to yacht building and new 4G-foot orders may be looked for. THE COMING FOOL TOURNAMENT.

Kansas Alliance Men Want to Stop the Cre atlonof Municipal Debts. i. Topeka, Jan. 2k One of the important questions to be brought before tbe Legislature is that of prohibiting the further incumbrance of townships and cities by voting bond". Tbe Alliance has taken the ground that there ongbt to be a constitutional prohibition of all mu nicipal bond voting. While there is no disposition to repudiate outstanding obligations of this kind, the lead ing Alliance representatives believe that municipal bonds can be not only yery properly refunded in long-time bonds bearing loner rates of interest, but that in refunding the bonds should be drawn to run different lengths of time say 30, 32. 31. SB, 38 or -W i ears, more or tess, as circum stances render most expedient and practicable. Tbe object being: (1) Inducement to the bond holder, bv giving bim a longer interest bearing period: (2) to secure a much larcer amouutof taxable property in the municipality before jiav day conies, so that tbe burden will be lishter on individual taxpayers: and (3) so that payment may be spread over a period of years, making it less burdensome, and this plan will render the sinking fund quite unnecessary. A sinking fund is dead canltal where it can not be put out a interest. Whatever action is taken on the bond question It is thought it will be along tbe abuve line. A MYSTERIOUS FIND.
