And there is still another very prominent
name to add to the list or ball players who
have wearied ol the conduct of the Amer
ican Association and joined the ranks of the
National League. This time it is the name
of Pittsburg's great pitcher, Mark Baldwin.
Mark has signed with the local club. He
did so Thursday afternoon, and he deems
his action perfectly sale.
Baldwin has signed for a good salary.
While it would be a breach of confidence to
give the figures it can be said that the salary
is a very good one, and higher than the
Columbus club was to give him. Mark had no
objection to signing providing ho could seenre
terms satisfactory to himself. He had a busi
ness interview with President O'Neill and mat
ters were tied within 20 minutes.
Baldwin signed under conditions similar to
those of Knauss, of Cleveland: in fact, Bald
win's is in ;11 respects a parallel case to that ot
Knanss. Baldwin claims that the Colnmbus
club has violated its agreement with him,
as he signed to play under a national agree
ment and tree from any kind of baseball war.
Now that the Columbus club has broken from
the national agreement and precipitated a
conflict. Baldwin justly argues that his contract
has decidedly been brokeu. During a conver
sation yesterday, he said:
"I don't want to be in any more organizations
that are trying to kill somebody else. But. be
jond all. I am determined to play under a
national agreement I signed witb Columbus
to do that, and when that clnb has decided to
break away from that agreement I consider
that it has no claim on uie. But I mean to
act in an honorable way, and I have made a
provision which will keep me all right.
It the Columbus club disputes my
right to leave it, and go to law
it can do so as soon as it chooses, and it tbo
Ian decides that my contract with Columbus is
liinding I will certainly go to Columbus and act
up to it. But I feel certain that ii is not and I
want 10 protect m self against being left nut
in the cold. Mypisition, therefore, is aper
fectable honorable and ju-tifable one. The
Columbus club has acted in bad laith to me in
Ululating the national agreement regardless of
my interests: but still if the law upholds its
conduct I will abide by the law's decision."
Undoubtedly Baldwin is a great catch for the
local team as there is no better pitcher in the
League to-day. He ism excellent condition
and has great confidence of doing great work
tlmyear. It is not at all unlikely that oae or
two more prominent Association players will
be hooked by the local club to-day or Monday.
A man well intormed on the matter stated last
evening that both pitcher Gurubert and catcher
O'Connor, Baldwin's old catcher, can be se
cured by the 1'ittsburg club.

He Stakes Some Awful Threats to tho
League mid Its Friends.
Cincinnati Enquirer. 1
Albert L. Johuson, the Brotherhood chieftain,
was In the city a short time last night. It was
only between trains, as Mr. Johnsor. was en
route from Cleveland to Louisville. During
his short stay here he breathed foith tucsinokc
and lava, and in language not to b mistaken
intimated that the league had made a mistake
in sizing him up for an easy mark, as it would
fiud bin. very hot pepper before it was through
with him. He a positive that the League
liad no chance to oust him from the Cincinnati
Park, that he had paid the rent and kept up
Hie organization for the past three months.
He left SLGOu to pay the quarterly rent on the
park.
-I will be there next spring when the season
opens," said Mr. Johnson, "nith a fine team of
lull plajers, headed by the only Mike Kelly.
It may be that lteilly, Mcl'hee and Ilulliday
will not play on my team, but if they don't you
can win money by betting that they will not
play anywhere else. The law cannot force
them to play, but it can prevent them from
plaj irg ans w bee ele except lor the club w ith
wLicb they signed. I was thunderstruck when
I heard that Keillt and MePnee had signed
contracts. 1 tbm .: better of them. 1 thought
they were men tuat could be depended upon,
especially after they received big sums of
advance money. The League will find me very
troublesome the coming season. They will not
find it a bed of roses when they visit either
Cleveland or Cincinnati. I will have sheriffs
and constables looking after my interests."
Mr. Johnson will return here "Saturday morn
ing. TEHY WELL SATISFIED.
Manager nanlon Returns and Talks About
the Local Club's Prospects.
Manager Hanlcn returned from the East yes
terday and expressed himself as being de
lighted with the prospects of the local club.
During a conversation he said:
"We are all right. 1 have signed Reilly, and
it took me two or three dajs to do it. His
figure was a v cry steep one. The Association
people had been trying to get Maul trom us,
but he refused to join them. We will get a
good team, and would have had our team com
plete now if the newspapers had not. in a few
instances, made onr plans public Mr. O'Neill
tried to keep Hecker's going to Louis
ville quiet. but it was known in
Lnuisvilie before Heckcr arrived there.
Somebody wired the news from Pittsburg on
the evening that llecker left here As a result
we arc havinggreattrouble in getting Stratton.
because Manager Chapman, ot the Louisville
club, reached btratton before Heckerdid. If
the matter had been kept quiet btrattou would
have been signed with in now. But we can get
more gojd lucnjet. Wc have our hands on
two."
Manager Hanlon went on to say that the As
sociation magnates have dicovcrcU their (oily
of jumping the national agreement. The Asso
ciation's present course, he says, is one of cer
tain destruction, and will result in that organi
zation becoming a minor leanue.
It is only tair to say that whatever players
may or may not be signed by the local, both
President O'Neill and Manager Hanlon have
worked well ana faithfully. Notwo men could
ha-e done more than they have, and the direc
tors have backed them up in a spiiit of liber
ality that has never been surpassed in this city.
THE BPEING HANDICAPS. '
Prominent Horses Out of Both Events and
Some Only Out of One.
The declarations to the two great spring
handicaps the Suburban and Brooklyn have
been announced. Kingston and Westchester
are out of both: Potomac, Hon, Bolero, Worth
and Fellow charm are out of the Suburban, and
Tournament, English I: idy, Raymond G, Am
bulance. Clarendon, Stryke and Dunboyne out
of the Brooklyn. It is not surprising that King
ston is out of both handicaps, for with 130
pounds in the buburban and 123 in the Brook
lyn the delicate son of Spendthrift and Ka
pauga would have little chance, even if he
tood preparation.
Tournament goes out of the Brooklyn at 125,
but stajs in the buburban at 133. Cooper prob
ably preferring to take a montn longer to give
the great bir Modred horse a thorough prepara
tion. The retirement of Bolero and Potomac
from the Suburban removes two of the crack
l'o ear-olds of 1890 Irom the race which a3
v ear-old has never w on.

ti ill. Jack Dcmpsey's old friend aud backer,
would match the "Nonpareil" against Doml
nick McCaffrey for either 15,000 or $10,000 In a
finish contest atcatch weights. It appears that
McCaffrey and Tutbill met a party of friends at
a certain well-known sporting resort a few
nights ago, and became Involved in a discussion
as to the respective reputation of several
prominent pugilists. McCaffrey claimed that
Jack got his reputation by defeating him. Tut
hill then remarked that he must have deserved
ft a Jack had never wou a liattlo in luslile
only in a fair and square way. When Domimck
IW
mora
spoke about the Fitzsimmons fight, Tnthill said
that in his opinion Dempsey in his best days
could not best the lanky Australian.
After considerahle talk McCaffrey said that
he would like to get another chance at Demp
sey. and Tutbill snapped him up by offering to
make a match for the above amount. He pro
duced a big roll of bills, and wanted to post
12,500 on the spot. Dominick asked him it he
was sure that Jack would fight, and Tutbill
told him that Dempsey would stand by any
match that he would make. Finally, McCaf
frey said that he would put up his money in a
day or two if tho Manhattan Athletic Club offi
cials will allow him to right. Gus told him that
lie would get permission trom the club for him
to battle if ho would make tho match.
As the matter now stands, Tuthltl is waiting
to hear from McCaffrey or his backers. He is
anxious to back Jack because he is confident
that he can beat McCaffrey. Tuthill said
that it w as correct that he had had a conversa
tion with McCaffrey. "I am ready to make this
match," said be, "without another day's delay.
He was tho one to make the break, and 1 picked
him up. Ho has an idea that he can whip Jack,
but he's sadly mistaken. I'll put up tbo money
just as soon as I hear from McCaffrey."

pledge to the League, and before night Ashley

main. The Pittsburgers went to Cumberland
expecting that the fighting would last two days,

Cumberland, and consisted of nine battles.
Each battle was for 25 a side, and 200 was bet
on the main. The outside betting was very
heavy, there being about 400 spectators there.

taking to knock any one of them nut in six
rounds. He will confine himself to 158 pounds.
This offer is particularly made to Elmer Grant,
of Beaver. It Grant accepts he can box at any
weight he chooses. Doubtless the offer is a
bold one, and some of our Jocil men may be in
clined to accept it. If it is accepted the con
test must take place within four weeks, as
Smith must leave for New York with Farrell.

m'FCIAI. TELSPBAK TO TUB EIBPATOI7.1
Bedford. Feb. 27. The Greeyy-Scull
contest assumed a belligerent aud gory
aspect at the session held by the Commis
sioners at Everett last night. The Com
missioner has sat upon the Greevy side on
every occasion. Greevy's attorneys took
the position that when a ballot box was
once opened by the Scull men it was open
for all purposes, and that they also had a
right to inspect its contents. The commis
sioner declined to entertain the proposition.
Greevy having been informed of the situ
ation, decided to appoint a commission of
his own to sit with Mr. Scull's representa
tive, citing an act of Congress as his author
ity for so doing. The commissioner selected
was A. V. Dively, one of the most promi
nent members of the Blair county bar. He
was on hand at Everett yesterday, and al
though Scull's representative treated him
with lofty contempt, he took an active part
in the proceedings. Mr. Weller, Scull's Com
missioner, opened the Monroe township ballot
box and threw out four Greevy votes. Dively
then dipped into it and unearthed 11 illegal
Scull ballots.
At the adjournment of the afternoon session
the Scnll men were furious at the unexpected
turn affairs had taken. They held a confer
ence and decided to resort to desperate meas
ures. At the night session tho West Provi
dence township ballot box was produced and
examined by Weller. Tho Justice of the Peace
refused to surrender the box to Dively. where
upon Messrs. Fletcher and McNamara.
Greevy's attorneys took it from him. Then
Attorney Jordan, Scull's representative, gave a
signal, and a bowling mob, armed with clubs,
rushed up the stairway to the hotel parlor
where the sessions were held and swarmed
into the room. The Greevy men were over
powered in a moment, and the ballot box was
recaptured. Fearingpersonal violence, Greevy's
representatives withdrew, nor, however, before
filing a red-hot protest against the disgraceful
proceeding.
G.reevy's friends are now very much pleased
with the situation. They claim this outbreak
will clve them a tremendous weapon before the
Committee on Contested Seats, and will
prooably have the effect of arousing the Dem
ocrats and ultimately turning Scull out of
Congress.
WEST'S BODY BTJBIED.
More About. the Chloroforming Process
Before tho Execution.
IRrlCIAI. TELEOnAM TO TUB DISPATCH.!
Washington. Pa.. Feb. 27. The colored
people about this place are anery about tho
manner in which West was executed yester
day. After tho execution the body was
conveyed in a wagon to llasil West's homo
at Fairview, a suburb of this town. Basil and
several of his friends remained with the body
all night, and stated that West's body turned
partly over in the coffin, and there was a
trembling of life during the fore part of the
morning. At 12 o'clock to-day the body was
still warm. No pulsations were apparent, how
ever. This afternoon the remains were conveyed to
the Mount Zion graveyard, at West Pike Run,
and interred. The report that Wrst was
chloroformed was true. The deputies at
tempted to dress him at ISO P. M., Thursday,
before the execution. He groaned and turned
over in his bed, and attempted to push away
the officials, and in every way possible delay
the proceedings. A half grain of morphine
was injected into Ve9t, in the hope that it
would quiet him. It had no effect on him at
all. Chloroform was then administered to him,
and while in this condition he was secured to
the board with bands of ticking. When the
execution parry reached the. hall of the Court
House the cold air seemed to revive him, and
be opened hi-, eyos and looked about. The
scaffold and high board fence was torn away
to-day. but not until the curiosity of a large
crowd was satisfied. No blame is attached to
Sheriff Lockhart forthe bungling of the execu
tion. A STBANGE AND FATAL TTJK0B.
An Abnormal Growth Canses the Death of a
Child at Waynesburg.
rerzciAL telegram to the dispatch.'.
Wayxesbdrg, Fen. 27. The curious forma
tion on the body of the little 3-year-old boy of
John Hock, of Rice's Landing, of which so
much has been said, caused the death of the
child at last. In August last tbo boy was play
ing in ihe yard, when he fell down. He cried a
good deal and seemed to suffer. Little atten
tion was paid to it, however, until a few days
later a strange lump was discovered on his ab
domen. It grew to an enormous size, and phy
sicians declared an operation meant death.
The boy would eat scarcely anything, though
he almost constantly a-ked for food. When
not watched be would eat ashes and other hard
substances. Last Wednesday he asked his
mother for a piece of cako, and in three min
utes after was dead. When the growth wai re
moved it weighed 7Jpounds,and it was found it
bad completely surrounded the kidneys and
grown fast to the body. Its size caused it to
interfere with the action of the heart, causing
death. The lump is said to be a puzzle to phv
sicians, who say it resembles no tumorous
growth they ever encountered.

A STCAKGE COlihEGE ANACMiOXISM
COrYRIGIITED BY NEW YORK ASSOCIATED
ritESS.3
London, Feb. 27. A social sensation
has been caused by reports of a verbal
fracas between the Queen and Prince of
Wales at Fortsmouth yesterday. Betore
going to the launch the Prince of Wales
heard through the Foreign Office alarm
ing accounts of the position of
ex -Empress Frederick in Paris.
He decided to go to bring
her away, believing his personal popularity
would prevent the threatened demonstra
tion, and he wired the Queen his intention.
On arriving at the dockyard and joining the
Queen's circle, grouped round the bows of,
the Royal Arthur, the Queen was heard ac
costing him with:
The (Jueen Grows Excited.
".What do you say? Turn my daughter
out of Paris?" Nonsense! It is nonsense!"
The Prince, in an undertone, replied that
he was so impressed with the gravity of the
situation reported by the Minister that he
had wired his sister to leave immediately if
she could not await him. The Queen,
visibly enraged, repeated that it was
impossible to believe that any insult could bo
offered to her daughter in Paris. She then sat
down and excitedly played her fingers on an
electric battery, to the alarm of I'rof. Edgar
and the dockyard officials, who dreaded a
premature launching of the ship.
In further conversation she blamed the
Prince for the injudicious coursehehad taken,
and threatened to countermand bis telegrams
by wiring herself. The Prince, in moderate
tones, protested that a countermand would be
unwise, and urged bis mother to send-atele-gram
onforcing his advice.
The controversy ondod in harmony. The
Queen, appeased, talked over the matter with
the Prince, and the latter, before leaving Ports
mouth, sent a cinher telegram to ex-Empress
Frederick, backing his own wishes with the
Queen's.
High-nanded University Outrages.
Tho case of a girl of 17, who escaped from
the Cambridge spinning house, where she had
been sentenced to a week's imprisonment, has
drawn attention to the monstrous anachron
ism of the Cambridge and Oxford University
authorities' privilege of trying and imprisoning
women suspected of intrigues with students.
The girl in question escaped from the spinning
house and raised a clamor, when she was ar
retted again.
Tho local Liberals took uj the grievance, and
proved that in a number of instances women of
unstained character had been arrested at will
byproctors.triedptivately.no jury.no sworn
evidence and no defense being allowed, con
victed and sent to the spinning house. A
notable instance Is that or a woman who disap
peared while out marketing, having been
banlen before the proctors and committed to
the spinning house.
Messrs. Labouchere and Fitzgerald, members
of the House of Commons, have determined to
agiiate the matter in Parliament. The univer
siry authorities, not daring to face disclosures,
are willing to abandon the privilege, which
dates from the charter of James I.
A Justice Unfit for Dnty.
As Justice Stenbens persists in his refusal to
resign. Mr. Cobb, M. P., is preparing a state
ment lor tho Lord Chancellor to show reason
why the Justice should retire. The ground
taken is that ho is unablo to do
his duty. An instance occurred at tho
Guildford Assizes yesterday. On counsel
telling the witness to go slowly and await the
Judge's pleasure, the Justice threatened to
commit the counsel to jail for contempt, saving
that it was the grossest insult that had been
offered him, and ho began summing up the
case until he was reminded that the jury had
not heard tho defense.
The persons who are moving for the release
of Mrs. Maybrick urge that the summing up of
Justice Stephens to the prejudice of the ac
cused was owing to his unstable mental con
dition. MAY LOSE HIS OFFICIAL HEAD.
A Secretary's Indiscreet Tongue Angers the
Emperor of Germany.
BERLlN.Feb. 27. Emperor William Is greatly
displeased with the recent speech made by tho
Secretary of the Committee on Naval Esti
mates. The Secretary on Wednesday last was
quoted as declaring it imperative that Ger
many should have a first-class navy or none.
Money, ho added, was necessary, and he
alarmed the committee by adducing the possi
bility of a joint attack upon the part of France
and Russiu upon Germany.
The Secretary also made other statements
which he asked the committee to keep secret.
It was believed, however, that they related to a
plan of locking the Kussian navy in the Baltic
while England or Italy were to hold tho French
navy in check in tho Mediterranean. It is now
rumored that as a result of the above utter
ances the indiscreet Secretary has been called
upon to resign.

CONGRESS AND RECIPROCITY.
Erastus Wiman Secures the Written
Opinion of Ovor 100 Statesmen.
New York, Feb. 27. Erastus Wiman bas re
ceived more than 100 responses from members
of Congress to his request for an opinion
wbotber, if opportunity offers, they would voto
forthoHitt resolution. He says a majority,
both of Senate and House, will certainly be
secured in favor of nnrestneted reciprocity be
tween the United States and Canada.
Senator Sherman writes it will be impossible,
in the crush of the closing days, to act upon the
resolution, and thinks that in the face of the
Canadian campaign any action might bo mis
understood, lie thinks cordial commercial re
lations would be of mutual interest, but all that
the friends of reciprocity can probably do is to
express the willingness of the people of the
United States to enter into such encagement
when the people ot Canada are willing.
