THE BASE BALL SITUATION. The Offer for the League Clubs and What is Said About It. The short article in yesterday's Star showing the true inwardness of the @1,000,000 offer of the “New York syndicate” for the league's fran- chise opened the eyes of the people here toa large degree, and while they disbelieved in the success of the attempt before, because they did not think that it had been made, now they are incredulous, becanse they know that it was such an exceedingly small offer as to stand no show whatever. Somewhat tardy, but nevertheless quite interesting, is the interview with Mr. Day and other concerned individuals in the Philadelphia Press this morning, in which the information given by Taz StaR yesterday was reinforced, The following extract from a talk with a member of the law firm making the offer throws a rather entertaining side light on the question: “Will you kindly give me the names of the gentlemen comprising the syndicate? “I should like to do so very mue not been authorized to promulgate their names, and therefore it would be quite contrary to legul custom to disclose anything without authorization.” “Does the offer of $1,000,000 include the ers as well as club?” it means everything. We want to put our- selves in the National league's place.” “Then you don't think that the $1,000,000 ’s an extravagant offer?” “Not at ail; we have gone over the ground carefully and will give every penny that is offered.” “How abont $100,000 for the present Wash- ington club?” hat goes, Now, if you have an idea that that is a fabulous sum to give for the National league clubs, I'l] make a proposition to you. If you can purchase those clubs for €750,000 I'll give you $1,000,000, and thus you will be in 250.000. The firm of which I have the honor of being a member wishes to be placed right in this matter, and I think our names are a suffi- cient guarantee that the offer bas been made in good faith.” = WHAT PRESIDENT HEWETT SAYS, President Hewett was seen by a Sar reporter yésterday and he looked as though he would be rather glad of an opportunity to receive a hun- dred thousand dollars as his share of the pur- chase money, But, he explained, of course he wouldn't get that much in case the “dicker” was concluded; the money would be divided in proportion to the earning capacity of each club at the capitalization that would be put upon it by a careful financier. When asked if he had any more men in mind he said that he has as good as signed a new second baseman, and all he wants now is a short stop, when he will have a complete team. This will give him fifteen men, afair sort of club to begin the season with, as far as numbers go. He added, however, that he is not going to take any more active steps until after the league meeting next Tuesday, interjecting sententiously that the situation might be changed then. WAITING, Mr. Hewett is probably in the same position of old Mr. Damocles, who used to be in the habit of glancing upward occasionally at the sharp edge of a sword suspended over his neck by a very slender cord. ie Hewett is simply waiting for the sword to fall. He does not know when it will come or evenif it is going to come, but he does not want to go ahead with his work and then have the sword fall and ren- der what he has done wholly useless. And so he waits a week. BROTHERHOODS DOINGS. “Buck Ewing sagely remarks: ‘All this talk True, Buck, and It might be interesting just here to quote the words of a prominent base ball official uttered to a Srar reporter afew days ago. He said: “The brotherhood folks scem to have lost their ey have done: They have on @ par with everything else that they do. They have gone ahead, apparently, as though they expect find the doilars spread thickly over the ground, ready to be pulled in with a boe. They don't seem to appreciate the amount of clicking that the turn-stile will have todo at each of the eight gates to make up this 25,000, and that is only one of a number of extravagances that they have indulged in. They either have un- limited money or unbounded’ ignorance, and I think I know which it is.” BALL NOTES, A meeting of the law committee of the league was held yesterday in New York, at which Mr. Byrne of Brooklyn was instructed to act with Counsel Duysters to bring out fresh facts at Ward's trial. The Interstate league met yesterday at Eas- ton, Pa,, and decided to drop Wilkesbarre and Seranton. Six clubs will form the league. ‘he American association schedule commit- tee were hard at work yesterday upon next sea- son’s dates and at midnight Man: made the following statemen: the schedule arranged as far as t! will begin on April 17 ‘The eastern clubs will play together and so will the western, to begin with, and the western clubs will come east, There will be three trips back and forth during the season.” John Ward is in Jacksonville and some folks ascribe his presence there toa desire on his part to try to wean some of Harry Wright's or Anson's youngsters from their ranks, If this should be so it presages & bad outlook for John. It is believed that the million-dollar offer for the National league club is the advance notice of something terrible that is to happen in the base ball world. What if it should prove the last trump of a losing hand?—Jnguirer, Ben Sanders of the Phillies has a brother who he thinks is one of the coming catchers, Wash- ington bas been after him.—Inquirer. ‘The Buffalo brotherhood team has a surplus of infielders, some of whom will probably be in the market before many months, despite their rotestations against the sale and Tarte of Raman beings. These are “mere business ions.” —Exchange. SHE WASHED DISHES TOO WELL. A Girl in Boy’s Clothing Detected by the Way She Washed Dishes. Annie Fischer, a handsome girl, apparently about sixteen years of age, was found in the of Frederick Kemmenna’s house, 5142 Butler street, Pittsburg, early yesterday morn- g in a comatose condition. She is now at the West Penn hospital and is evidently suffering from the effects of some powerful drug. It is believed that she attempted to end her life. Some time last week she made her appearance in the eighteeuth ward dreased in boy's cloth- ing and applied for work. A lady living on Stanton avenue gave her a temporary home, She was told one day to wash a cup and the lady happened to notice the manner in which she twisted the dish cloth as she was wringing it out. Her benefactor at once became con- vinced that the supposed boy was a girl and taxed her with being disguised. ‘The girl thereupon broke down and claimed that she had run away from her father’s farm neas Franklin, Pa, She reached the eighteenth ward by stealing her way on freight trains, She was furnished with female attire and started out. She found employment at Viem- menna’s, Last night she was out of danger. ——2ee————— Popular Route to New York.

Yesterday afternoon as the west-bound Nickel Piate passenger train reached the 150- foot high bridge over Walnut creek, near Swan- CROOK AND MILES. An Ex-Scout on the Geronimo Campaign and the Use of Indian Scouts. To the Editor of Tae Evextne Sr. I would like to indorse the statement made by Lieut. L. W. V. Kennon before the House Indian committee. I think for several reasons Fort Sill or that portion of the country is alto- gether the best place the Apaches could be sent to, The government hasalready provided there a country for them and but little addi- tional expense would be made in the removal. The location is as healthy as the country about San Carlos agency, their former home. All fearsof the Indians attempting to return to their old stamping grounds are baseless, for they know they linve everything to lose and nothing to gain by such an undertaking, as every other tribe has earned. GEN, CROOK'S TEACHING. Gen. Crook taught the Touto, White Moun- tain and San Carlos Apaches, Yumos and Mojavas that lesson, and at last the Chirica- huas flearned that they could not con- tinue their depredations unpunished. He brought about the understanding between the United States and Mexico, by which our troo were permitted to follow the Indians across the border and not allow them to recruit their stock or make emt camps in the moun- tains for their women and children. Then, although they hads vast mountain country to run over, they knew they must surrender or sooner or later be exterminated. They learned the lesson from the fairest officer to both Indian and white man that I ever knew or served with in the field, During the campaiga which resulted in the surrender of the Chiri- cahuas to Gen. Crook in Old Mexico, in 1 he did not use Chiricahuas for scouts and hi only two with him, To-clou and Po-nal-tish by name, who proved true and faithful to the trust imposed in them, returning to San Carlos after the eurrender, WHAT LIRUT, GATEWOOD OR INTERPRETER WRAT- N MIGHT TELL. A civilian, not in government employ, smng- gled whisky into the camp and was thus the cause of the thirty-six men, women and chil- dren slipping away in the night. These were the only hostiles when Gen. Miles assumed command of the department, Gen. Crook hav- ing by his own request some time previous to the surrender been relieved. If the commit- tee desire to know more of the surrender of the last small batch of Apaches they should call tor the evidence of Lieut. Gatewood of tho sixth cavalry, or George Wratton, now inter- preter at Mount Vernon, who thoroughly under- stands the Apache language, and are the men who with the scouts were the means of bring- ing about the surrender of this last band of hostiles, being entitled to some of the credit given to Gen, Miles and Col. Lawton. As to Indian scoute I have used them many years against hostiles, and although I have put them to the hardest trials of endurance when they were hungry and thirsty I never had them refuse to do what I asked; and there has never been a campaign in the west against hostiles in which Indian scouts have not been successfully handled by men who understood them. Gen. Crook knew that an Indian can find an Indian quicker than a white man can, and myself and many others have reason to thank Indian scouts for our lives, Iam no lover of the In- dians, for I have lost relatives and friends at their hands and have followed thema good many years to subdue them; I have studied them as a man might study a setter dog, to learn their habits and peculiarities, so I could handle them with success, Indian against In- dian, and we have proved that it can be done. Give them credit where they deserve it, for there is good and bad among them all, as I have found in years of experience. Fraxk . BENNETT, Ex-Chief Scouts for Arizona and New Mexico, —— ee. Old Hutch Never Knew It. “I was introduced to ‘Old Hutch’ in Chicago the other day,” said a New England man in the Ebbitt lobby. “He isa typical Yankee of the extremest sort, and you remember he was orig- inally from Vermont. He has a large frame, and in good fies would turn two hundred.” “Stingy?” “I guess; at least he has that reputation. You remember be was held up last year by foot pads and, although he is worth a few mill- ions, they got only 12 cents fer their bold un- dertaking.” “They say he dresses shabbily?” “There is usually some hayseed under his collar, but I heard a good story about his get- ting a newcoat. His eon one day eas ided him on his coarse clothing and urged him to get a new overcoat like his own, which, though it cost €100, he assured his sire was made to order for #40. The old man yielded, and the som sent word to the tailor if his father came in to make the price $40 and be would pay the balance himself, The $100 coat was soon on back, and the next day on the de a broker inquired if he was not getting rather extravagant in his dress. “That's & fine coat you have on; I would be willing to pay 375 for one just like it.’ ” “You may have it,’ quickly responded the king of the pit, thinking only of the $35 profit, and, suiting the action to the word, peeled bis covering as quick as a country shuck a nubbin. That day there was a 325 net loss in the ‘Hutch’ but the old man never knew it.” The Biggest American Ship Afloat. ‘The new ship Rappahannock, which carried 800 tons of paving blocks as ballast from Bath to Philadelphia, will load 120,000 cases of oil from the latter port to Japan. The Rappahan- nock isa great si being 3,053 tons net, or 456 tons larger than the Frederick Billings, the pride of Rockport, Seven hundred tons of oak and 1,200,000 feet of southern pine were used in her construction, and she is the heaviest sparred ship in the American register. Her mainmast is 89 feet long, 385g inches in diam- eter, main topmast 58 feet and main topgallant 71 feet. The main yard measures 95 feet, fore- ee 95 feet; lower maintopsail, 87 feet; upper, ‘9; lower main topgallant, 70 feet; upper, 64; main royal, 53 feet, and main skysail 43 feet. She will spread about 15,000 yards of duck and ought to sail like a Pirate. How Orleans’ Friend Looks. Of the Duke of Orleans’ near friend, De Luynes, Labouchere says: “This nobleman is saved by a clear, fair skin and a good natured laugh from being the exact image of our Dar- winian forefathers, I never saw a clearer case of reversion to a far-back ancestral type. This duke’s mouth reaches from ear to ear, and his loose lips refuse on any account to cover up the nether teeth and gums, His forehead slopes back from his brow at an angle of thirty-five degrees. Republicans and semites have no reason to fear the ducal party, The duke of Dondeauville, though now fairly well stricken in years and corpu- lent, continues to dress as a masher and wears bis grizzly hair parted in the middic, while marks of curling irons on the top part court attention.” QLEVELAN _PIANOS AND ORGANS. *e] FIND THE ‘KRAKAUER’ PIANOS FXCEL- lent in every particular.
