forced. "Tho much-heralded conferenre of
the Eastern and Western leagut-H nt
Buffalo accomplished quite us much aa
was expected of It. Cut lor that little
q may bo thankful, since seed wns
Bown from which something may
sprlnR," says tho Spilngfleld Union.
"Tho ,f peclal meetlnp of the Kaatorn
league accomplished much more In the
way of actual results since it started
In to straighten out the circuit tangle.
The transfer of the fccranton franchise
to Rochester hns long- been discounted.
It was predicted In thesv columns
mouths ago and tho ownership of the
franchlso by Deacon "White and Billy
llrndy, together with tho cholcu of
Chin ley Moiton ns miuinsror had nl
lculy hetMi announced by the Union.
"The other half of the proposed delil,
however, to tiansfer the Wllke-Bano
franchise to Ncwnik, was blocked at
the last moment by tho unexpected
ilnancial strength shown by the Wllkes
Hanv delcijate. President Hogert um
t'Pttcd that the Wilkes-DaiTf people
''eic detei mined to hold the fianeh'lse,
and had been promised backing to the
amuunt of 7.000. Some of the mag
nates wore Inclined to regard this as a
stiff blulf made for the purpose of ex
tracting the high price demanded for
Wilkes-Hart e's franchise and were also
Inclined to doubt the fulfillment of the
$7,0(i0 promises, but they could not help
giving Wilkcs-Barre the benefit of the
doubt and allowing her to retain her
franchise.
AX 1C1GHT CLUB CIRCUIT.
This elves the Eastern league at
piusent an clght-club circuit, made up
i.f Toronto, Buffalo, Rochester, Syra
cuse, Montreal, Wllkes-Carre, Sprlng
lield and Providence. And there It Is"
unite possible the league may stand
pat. But as arrangements hnd been
practically completed for taklnc: In
Newark and the prospective owners of
that club are so anxious to get In it Is
luite possible, too, that the league may
lie increased to ten clubs, admitting
both Newark and Hartford. That pow
er was voted to President Powers, if
at any time it became a wise or nec
essary move, in his opinion. A ten
club league Is undesirable on account
of the difficulty of making a compact
schedule, and because of the diffusion
of interest; but the present elghl-club
circuit isn't much better.
"For Instance, the best division ot
clubs that can be made is to put To
lonto and Buffalo, Rochester and Syra
cuse in pairs in the western division
and Montreal and Springfield, Wllkes
Barre and Providence into the eastern
division. That pairs Springfield with
Montreal and Providence with Wilkes
Barre. It would be Impossible to pair
Providence and Springfield, as at pres
ent, because that would pair Montreal
and AVIlkes-Barre. It would be little
better to pair Springfield with Wilkes
Barro and Providence with Montreal.
In fact, it makes a bad problem to
have tho eastern section so badly split
up. Any other arrangement, such as
putting Toronto and Montreal, Buffalo
and Rochester, Syiacuse and AVllkes
Harre, and Providence and Springfield
together would meet such opposition
from the western section as to make it
Impossible. The addition of Hartford
and Newark wouldn't help matters
much, and still worse problems would
confront the schedule maker.
"So there you are. The dropping o
Scranton for Rochester and the reten
tion of 'Wilkes-Barre makes the poorest
circuit to handle the league has ever
had.
"WILKES-BARRE'S DETERMINA
TION. "This has nothing to do with the ad
miration which "Wilkes-Banc's plucky
determination to keep base ball in
spires nor with the fact that every
writer on the circuit rejoices at the re
tention of so sportsmanlike a city. The
facts as presented above are theie and
must be looked squarely In the face.
Therefoie It Is quite possible that tho
Eastern league circuit for '9S has not
yet been fixed.
"Tho conference of tho Eastern and
Western leagues produced several
"agreements" of excellent purpose If
anything ever conies of them. In tho
tlrst place it was agreed to observe a
salary limit of $;,000 a month for each
team, or $2,123 when handled by a play
ing manager. Moreover, It was agreed
not to pay any single player more than
$200 a month. The advantages of this
are far-reaching, as It prevents a player
using offers from one league to boom
his salary in the other league when
disengaged.
"It was also agreed that the practice
of taking players from one league Into
tho Natlonnl and then transferring
them to the other league should bo
stopped If possible. To this end It was
agreed that when a player Is drafted
from a club In either league and found
wanting by tho National league the
Eastern or Western league club from
which that player was drafted shall
have first claim on the right to pur

chase or elgn him. If that club does
not want the player back again, then
tho other clubs can compete for him.
This was brought to a head by Provi
dence's suspicion that Catcher Dixon
wob drafted by Washington simply to
bo turned over to Minneapolis.
"This underhanded method has been
resorted to mora than once before and
tho dangers which threatened every
club in the same way have been point
ed out frequently by The Union for
years. Now the magnates have their
eyes open.
WHAT THEY CAN DO.
"But It Is not likely these agreements
will amount to a great deal or will
remedy existing evils. Ten or sixteen
magnntes can get together In the win
ter, and, by the? Judicious use of a suf
ficient amount of mellow fluid can agreo
on nlmost anything. Put these same
magnates Into the middle or a hot pen
nant race with a losing team nnd with
public nnd press clamoring for
"strengthlng up" nnd few If any of
them think or care anything about sal
ary limits or any other old agreement.
Thus it Is that compacts made to pro
tect themselves are so easily broken
when these same compacts protect
somebody else, too. To be sure, Presi
dents Powers and Johnson have been
given the power to demand a personal
inspection of any club's books at any
time there la complaint of salary limit
violation, but there are so many thou
sand ways of covering up such viola
tions that this will amount to little.
"It is a simple matter to sign a
player for $200 a month and pay him
that salary six or seven months In tho
year Instead of the four or five months
of the playing season. That would bo
the same tiling as paying him $300 a
month and yet It would be living up to
the letter of the law. That subter
fuge has been resorted to by some of
the magnates, who have had so much
to say In tho past about tho dishonesty
of other magnates in violating salary
rules.
"That agreement about players re
verting to the clubs from which they
were drafted can't be enforced in any
way If violated. It Is not recognized
by the national agreement, which Is tho
tribunal before which Inter-league
squabbles are settled. Supposing Min
neapolis uoes gci iJixon oi I'roviuence.
Provldenco kicks and President John
son or President Powers otders Minne
apolis to return Dixon. Minneapolis
appeals to the national board of arbi
tration and that body says the deal
was legal according to base ball law.
What uio you going to do about It
then?
SUBJECT OP FORMING.
"It is worth noting that there was a
very distinct and audible silence in the
reports given out by the confeiees on
the subject of farming. Nothing what
ever seems to have been said on that
subject und it Is pretty plain that tho
magnates either decided not to strug
gle with it or el-se found it too touch
a question to settle. One thing is cer
tain. Willi farming in vogue as at
present the agreements on salary limit
and returning pHycrs to their own
clubs don't amount to a bunch ot spi
nach in a seven-aj:re lot. Even If pies
ent agreements are lived up to there
is nothing to prevent Washington
drafting Dixon from Providence and
farming him out to Minneapolis. And
we aie all familiar with the way "To-
! ronto' obsetved the salary limit last
year by allowing AVash'ingtou to pay a
part of Lush's salary, etc. And it li
doubtful If the National league will
tolerate any agreement on the part o
minor leajrues to squslch farming. It
would mean the end of their big strings
of youngsters scattered all over the
country for development and a serious
blow to the National leacue's btein
monopoly of all the best baseball tal
ent in the country.
"The proposition for a si ries nf games
between the pennant winneis of the
two minor leugues was not favorably
considered and nothing will eur come
of It. If tho cup scries in both leagues
are allowed to die out, as they should,
it will be possible for the two pennant
winners to arrange a post-season ser
ies if they are geographically situated
so as to make it desirable, but there
will be nothing official about It."

The work of extinguishing the fire Is
greatly handicupped owing to tho ex

of gas. Efforts are being made today
to smother the fire and cut tho affect
ed section fiom tho lest of the mine,
but the ofilclals informed the Times at
3 o'clock this afternoon that th'ey be
lieve this method will not prove ef
fectual. The next resource will bo the
building of a dnin and the Hooding of
the burning section. The otllcluls say
that this will, In all likelihood, be nec
essary. This will, of onutf-e, necessitate a
longer suspension of operations than
was at first contemplated. Were It not
for the prevalence of gas the efforts
of subduing the fire would be much
more fru'tful. It Is thought, huwever,
that a spread of the (lames to uuy

Curo lor It.
Catarrh of the stomach lias long been
considered tho next thing to Incurable.
Tho usual symptoms &rb a full or
bloating sensntlon nfter eating', accom
panied sometimes with sour or watery
risings, a formation of gases, causlhg
pressure on tho heart nnd lungs and
difficult breathing; headache, fickle ap
petite, nervousness and a general
played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste In tho
mouth, coated tongue, and If the In
terior of tho stomach could bo scon It
would show u slimy, inflamed condi
tion. The cure for this corrimon and obsti
nate trouble Is found In a treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before it has a
time to ferment nnd Irritate tho deli
cate mucous surfaces of the stomach.
To secure a prompt and healthy di
gestion Is the one necessary thing to do,
and when normal digestion Is secured
the catarrhal condition will have dis
appeared. According to Dr. Harlanson the
safest and best treatment Is to use
after each meal a tablet, composed of
Distaste, Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux,
Golden Seal and fruit nclds sold at
all drug stores under the name of Stu
art's Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not being
a patent medicine, can be used with
perfect safety and assurance that
healthy appetite and thorough diges
tion will follow with their regular use
after meals.
Mr. N-. J. Booher, of 2710 Dearborn
St., Chicago, 111., writes: Catarrh Is
a local condition resultlg from a no
glected cold in the head, whereby the
lining membrane of the nose becomes
Inflamed and poisonous discharge there
from, passing backward into the throat,
reaches the stomach, thus producing
catarrh of the stomach. Medical au
thorities prescribed for me for three
years for catarrh of stomach without
cure, but today I am happiest of men
after using only one box of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot find ap
propriate words to express my good
feeling.
"I have found tlesh, appetite and
sound rest from their ute."
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is tho saf
est preparation as well ns the simplest
nnd most convenient remedy for any
form of indigestion, catarrh of stomach,
biliousness, sour stomach, heaitburn
and bloating after meals.
