Bancroft thinks McPheo will wheel into line and sign with the Reds when the time comes. Arlio Latham, he says, may be displaced and Jimmie Canavan signed as a substitute outfielder. L. Bhoch have signed ‘contracts to play with the Phillies during the coming season. Darby itched for the Omaha team last year and hoch formerly played ontfield on both the Washington and Baltimore teams. Shoch was released last spring by the Wahington mansj ment without playing a game here. On going to Baltimore he broke his leg and consequently was handicapped, yet he was fourth on the list of Baltimore batsmen.

Games will be played with the University of Penusylvania, Yale, Princtton, Georgetown University, Camden’ and other strong teams, and by the time the season opens they hope to be in fairly good shape to make a fight for the pennant, ‘The Phillies will not give up Connor unless they have # man to fill his place who is satisfac- tory to both themselves and the public,and such a player does not seem to be forthcoming. Connor is a great favorite in Philadelphia and “To place the pitcher in the center of the diamond would be @ mistake.” That is what Secretary Shetzline of the Philadelphia Ball Clnb says in regard to the proposed change in the playing rules, “I know that the committee on rules favor such « step,” continues Mr. Shetzline, “‘but I doubt if the National League asa body will ratify it at the March meeting. Weare opposed to sucha radical departure, and so are other elubs, and the rule will likely be adopted in a modified form. Eddie Burke, who covered second base aud left field for the Giants last year,has been signed by Manager Ward. ‘The University of Virginia have offered the use of their grounds to the New Yorks for their spring practice, but Manager Ward bas decided that the team will not take a southern trip this spring. While Ward isin favor of it he thinks the team will not be fully organized in time. Ward is not in favor of the proposed new rule to put the pitcher in the center of the diamond. “I consider that too much of a change,” he says. “‘If the pitcher were to be placed five feet farther back it would be far enough to begin with. ‘That, [ think, would be sufficient to bring avout the desired increase in batting.” Oakland, Cal., has released our old Bill O'Brien and signed Hernon, a | bateman ot the Northwest League. ‘The makeup of the Oakland team includes well-known ex- league players: Dickson, catcher; Griffiths, Horner and Dewald, pitche , second base; Irwin, third base; McQuaid, left field; Hernon, center field: Hines, right field. ‘The players of the Philadelphia Club on Tuesday received the shock for which they have been looking, and now they know the figures for which they will be expected to play ball next season. It is safe to say that none of them are overjoyed, yet all must see the justice of the move. There was no headlong Tush to see which would get to the treasurer's office first to vign, and most of them are likely to think over the matter for a few da The two Sull Radford and Wise are all that have signed with the Washingtons thus far—not a very hefty aggregation. Mr. Hoke Smith's paper. the Atlanta Journal. in adouble-leaded editorial on the base bali tuation, «aid: “The placing of the pitcher in the middie of the diamond will give bat- tersa better chance and consequently afford spectators more amusement. People love to see good batting and brilliant field play.” Doyle and Boyle of New York have become uneasy over the rumors that they may be traus- ferred tovome other club, and Manager Ward has received letters from them asking about such reports. According to “Monty” they will not be released. Young players from all over the country are applying to Manager Ward for positions on the team.

The prayer of the United States before the Bering sea arbitrators, as contained in the case for this government submitted to the arbi- trators, asks judgment: 1, That Russia exercise exclusive jarisdic- tion over the Bering sea and seal fisheries. 2.

Morse arrived about the same time. After a brief examina- tion they stated thatthe wound was not fatal. The bullet entered under the shoulder blade and glanced toward the right. It was suggested physicians should delay probing for the bullet uatl Mr. Mackay became more composed, but the wounded man insisted that the operation should be proceeded with imme- diately. Soon after 2 o'clock the physicians ex- tracted the bullet. Dr. Morse said that the bullet entered below shoulder blade d ranging slightly toward the rigbtatrnck the tebre, lodging in one of the spinous pro- cesses, Dr. Morse said that the wound was not necessarily fatal, but that his patient was by no means out of danger. He added that in cases, of gunshot wounds there was always danger of blood poisoning or lockjew. When closely questioned Dr. Morse said that it was too soon after extraction to foretell the termination of the wound, but that Mr, Mackay was resting quietly. Richard V. Dey telegraphed to Mrs. Macka} im London and young Mackay in New York that Mr. Mackay had been shot, but that the wound was not considered dangerous. After the extraction of the bullet he wired. giving the above statement of the patient's condition. ‘The news spread rapidly, und Mr. Mackay had bardly reached his room before it was besieged with ‘friends, anxious to know whether his wound was serious. As he had not yet been examined by @ surgeon, it was thought ad- Viable to receive noone. The assurance was, sent out to bis friends that he did not ider his wound serious, and that he was not confined to his bed. STORY OF THE SHOOTIXG, Mackay’s statement of the affair is as fol- “I was walking down Sutterstreet, bound for my room to pack my vallse, as I intended to go to Virginia City this afternoon. When I reached Lick alley I thought it would be « short cut to the hotel. I hud burdly taken two steps into Lick alley when I heard a pistol shot. I paused for a moment, rather startled, for I had not seen any one in the alley when I entered and did not at first know in which direction the | report of the pistol oxme. Suddenly a voice ex- | claimed, ‘‘Mr. Mackay, you have been shot,” and, looking up, I saw the brought me to my room—Mr. other side of the alley. “No, mney beeper . you are,”” he inelsted, “‘for I saw dust fly from your coat when the bullet struck you.’ I put my hand sround under my coat, and, eure enough, when I looked at my hand it was covered with blood. I then felt pain in my back. It all happened ins second, and, turn. ing half way around, I saw my assailant’ stand- ingat the head of the alley, with his pistol pointed at me. Ithen hmrried across to the east side of the alley, and as I did sol saw ¢ old man put the pistol, as I thought, to bis mouth and fire it again. He then reeled and feel, and I continued up the alley until we reached Mr. Bonner’s cart, and he drove me to the Palace. When Mr. Mackay was asked if he knew the man who bad shot him he said: “I never knew of a man named Rippey. I had e good look at the old man who shot me, and I am certain I do not know him. Icannot give any reason for the aseault."” THE MAN WHO SHOT MACKAY. Shortly before 3 o'clock August Drossel called at the receiving hospital and fully identified the dying man as W. C. Rippey. He said: I knew Rippey very well.
