Kew York, Oct 25. Baseball magnates
are now looking forward with some im
patience to the meeting of the National
League, which is to be held in Chicago on
November 1G. It has been predicted that
this will be the most lively convention in
the history of the game, and it is believed
that it fvill be over the attempt to split the
12-club league. A great many observers of
baseball would not be surprised if there
vbonld be a reorganization, and an eight
club League and an eight-club American
Association start the season of 1893.
The 12-elub league is certainly unpopular,
and there is very little chance of the four
old Association clubs to mate any money
next season. This their owners appreciate,
and tliev do not propose to commit financial
suicide by continuing a season so disastrous
as this one has been. On Saturday repre
sentatives of the 2sen York, Brooklyn,
Boston and Cleveland clubs Had an informal
conference at Boston, and this it is said
indicates that a change of some sort is
coining.
This latter statement will, of course, be
denied by the magnates and their "official
organ," but the fact remains that there is
serious disagreement in the camp. The
news first published in Pittsburg that the
magnates had agreed on something like a
unitorm rate of salaries is quite true, al
though the flopping League organ may de
deny it, True, there w?s no resolution
"passed on the subiect or minute made of it.
but it was tacitly agreed by the majority to
act as already stated.
Tliat the magnates are troubled is quite
true. A Xeir York club official said to
day: ".Most of us know what should be
done. The 12-club league and double
championship plan should be abolished,
but there are strong influences at work to
keep it going. The longer it exists the
m worse it will be for baseball. Good paving
cities like Pittsburg should tafce a bold
stand and decline to have anything what
ever to do with a 12-club league, and if
this were done the great big failure would
vanish at once."

Some Interesting Gossip Abont the Tlayers
and Their 1'rospects Against Tale.
Cambridge, Oct. 25. lS)ecaZ.-Only four
weeks remain now before the Harvard-Yale
football came at Springfield, and Harvard
men are beginning to get anxious. So many
men have been hurt, and so many men have
been tried in diffeient positions, that but lit
tle practice in team play has been had, and,
as usual. Harvard is worully deflclentln this
lespect. Once in a while the men will brace
up and show what they can do, but theie Is
no continuous good playini as far as
team work Is concerned, and too many
flukes occur at critical moments to glv any
confidence in a Harvatd victory on Novem
ber 19, 189i
The one grptt ctuso for hope is the fact
that Captain Trafford knows just how much
worksiinnld be done, nnd is going to have
It done if he can. Trafford and all the coach
crs know that individually Haivard has, by
Rll means, a better team at present than
Ynle: but they also know that this was the
cao last ear, yet Han ard was defeated.
It is ell i ecognized now that one man, be
lie ever bo good, cannot get by 11 men, even
though thev ate not so proficient. Tot Hat-
ard has not learned even now alwas to
bear this ti nth in mind. In some of their
plays mound the end on Saturday, however,
sijns or improvement were shown. Waters
as the head of the intciferenco wan very
good, llut this is "lily one nlny, and one
play will not win a Tale game.
Often or late years It has been impossible
to tell who were to play at Springfield until
the verv dav or the game. Men have been
shuffled all round, numbers tried and dis
carded and general uncertainty has pre-
ailed. So lar this year matters have
seemed to he going the same old way. But
this has been only the necessary preliminary
to finding the best men. Now the matter
has been decided pretty dcfinitelv. Quarter

fSPFCIAt TEWGRAJf TO TOE DI8PATCII.1
Indiana, Pa., Oct. 25. Governor Patti
son arrived here to-night to attend the
meeting of the State Board of Agriculture.
He will remain here until Friday morning,
or as long as the annual meeting of the
board continues. Thijr evening he and the
gentlemen accompanying him were ten
dered a reception by the people of Indiana.
The Governor is the guest of J, W. Clark,
son of the late Justire Clark, and his visit
here has been quite in the nature of a social
call as well as an official errand.
The usual effort was made to interview
him in relation to the political situation,
but beyond the declaration that he thought
Cleveland would be elected the Governor
reiusea to be pumped. He was painstak
ing but very adroit in doing this, switching
the would-be interviewers off on to discus
sions of the "World's Fair and the marvel
ous achievements of the Chicago people in
counection with it. In the course of a
really interesting dissertation on this sub
ject. Governor Pattison said what may
prove true prophecy in the time to come:
"The Chicago man is a type," said he,
"of that 'Western element which is san
guine beyond all argument, argumentative
beyond allbelief,and which has wrought out
the most wonderful results in what was at
one time rated one of the most unpromis
ing of fields. "We will do well to bear in
mind, and to teach it to those who are to
come after us, that hereafter in the history
of this great country the East will not
dominate the situation. "Whatever is good
for the teeming "West will have to be con
ceded by the East. If it is not, the "West
will take it without concession, and perhaps
lock the door after they have taken it,"

Zimmerman and Sanger Not Likely to Have

havo been arranged between Arthur A. Zim

as Zimmerman is to go on the trip, this

as Cheaply as Gondolas.
Bethlehem, Pa., Oct. 25. Fifty em
ployes of the Steniton Car Works at
Stemton are on strike. They have been
building large gondolas for $15 a piece. Six

SEW POSTAL CABDS ON SALE
and
They Fold Like a Sheet of Paper
Closely Resemble a Letter.
'The new two-cent postal cards were put on
sale yesterday. They consist of two cards
joined togethe and folded likea sheet of writ
ing paper. The idea is to put the address on
one postal card, and the receiver can tear
off the other and return tbe answer on it.
It is an English scheme, and was adopted
as an improvement in the mail service.
The only objection Assistant Postmaster
Edwards" had to the new card is that small
letters are liable to be concealed between
the folds, and it will give the bostal clerks
more work to guard against mistakes.

The cold weather to-day discloses the faot

factories have all been cut off. Still the
supply for domestic use Is altogether insuf-cient.
