THE ORANGE AND BLACK Make-Up of Princeton's Base Ball Team This Year. Rather More Hopefal Than fn Other Sensons—New Candidates Furnish Excellent Material. Special Correspondence of The Bveaing Star. PRINCETON, N.J., April 9, 1696. Although the training table has not be- gun, Princeton’s ball players are well started in the season’s work, and are look- ing forward with a great deal of interest to the outcome of the series of games with Baltimore and Georgetown during the Easter recess. The results of the games already played with Columbia, the Univer- sity of Vermont and Union are gratifying, but as all these teams were rather weak no particular significance can be attached to the size of the scores. The games with the New York and Boston league teams will serve to demonstrate more satisfac- torily the actual strength of the nine. The “weeding out’ process, under the di- rection of Coach Pteffer and Capt. Brooks, has so far progressed that the final make- up of the team will soon be determined. The work of the old men so far has not been up to the standard set by previous teams at this time in the season, but this can be accounted for by the fact that they were not called out as soon this year as formerly. The new candi- dates for the vacant positions, however, have been such as to give hope of one of the best teams Princeton has ever had. In Altman, Bradley, Wilson, Jayne and Easton Princeton is well supplied with pitchers. Bradley's arm, which prevented his doing much last year, has been successfully treated this winter, and he bids fair to eclipse his old record as the leading pre- Paratory school pitcher. Wilson and Jayne pitched on their freshman team, and show- ed considerable ability. Altman is not in form yet. Behind the Bat. The catcher’s position is giving Capt. Brooks most trouble, and Princeton will, as usual, be weak here. Williams and Tren- chard are working away in their usual style, slow but accurate, and poor at the bat. Altland, a freshman, and Titus are promising men, and in time could be de- veloped into first-class catchers; both throw very well, but owing to inexperience are rather uncertain. Undoubtedly the best man for the position, Smith, substitute end on the foot ball team, will be prevent- ed from. playing by a very troublesome arm; his playing filis all the requirements of a first-class catcher, and he holds Alt- man’s speed better than any other man, Three of last year’s team will play in’ the Infleld, Otto, Brooks and Gunster, but a shortstop must be found among the many aandidates. If no one proves capable Brooks will return to his last year’s posi- tion and put a new man in Phil. King’s old place, although he much prefers to play second. The most promising new men are Butler, Reiter and Kelley, all freshmen, and consequently uncertain, be- cause of their inexperience. Their fielding is strong, but a trifle slow. P. Ward, a substitute on last year’s nine, and Sankey are both brilliant players in practice, but are never to be relied on in an important game. In fact, none of these men are up to the ‘varsity standard. Otto and Gun- ster are playing their usual steady game at first and third, and both show an im- provement at the _ bat. Payne {s.-filling” MacKenzie’s place in right field very creditably; he-is an able man in the field, and in Ward has a close second. Ward is a sure catch, but his base running is more on the foot ball order; his redeeming feature is his batting. When not pitching Bradley usually plays in left field, but Small and Pardee are both good fielders, as is Suter, a new man, but one of the quickest men trying for the position, though inclined to be careless. The Prospect is Good. By the 1st of May Princeton will have a nine on the diamond of which she need not be ashamed. The lateness of the spring has prevented much outdoor prac- tice, and this has consequently handicapped the men in developing a team-play, which fs so necessary, but this will be offset in a Measure by the fact that so many of last year’s nine are back. Notwithstanding the lack of outdoor practice, the batting and base running is fairly ‘good, but great emphasis has been put on this in the cage work, for Princeton has never turned out heavy hitting teams. ‘The organization of a second nine, known as the “Consolidated,” composed of men not quite up.to the ‘varsity standard, is a scheme which has been greatly beneficial to the regular team. The members of this second nine are expected to train as care- fully as if they wore a ‘varsity uniform. Several games are scheduled with the best preparatory school teams, and every after- ncon a strong game is played agaifist the ‘varsity. This arrangement gives every man plenty of active work, and keeps the first nine on its mettle. Indeed, in spite of its best efforts, it has succumbed twice in these practice games. The games of the coming southern trip should prove most valuable to the nine, and most interesting to compare with the results achieved by Yale and other college nines. — GUATEMALA ADMITS ERROR. Points of the Settlement With Mexico Made Known. A Mexico City dispatch says: The settle- mcnt between Mexico and Guatemala con- teins seven clauses. 1. Guatemala declares that that govern- ment never had the intention to offend Mexito, and believed that she only exer- cised her rights over the territory west of the Laountan river, thus recognizing her errer. 2. Notwithstanding this, and for the sake of harmony tetween the two countries, and cut of a sense of equity, Guatemala prcmises to make good the damages caused by her agents, and the amount of said in- demnity to be settled by arbitration. 3. Mexico desists from her claims of in- demnity for war expenses, also for her de- mand of ember 30, for the removal of 5 Miles Rock from the Guatemalan commis- sion of boundary engineers, which Guate- { mala had already done. 4. Guatemala consents that Mexico may immetiately occupy the territory west cf the Chixoy and Usumacinta rivers, the territory assigned to Mexico by the treaty of 1882, and which Guatemala claimed be- longed to Mexico only after full delimita- tion is finished, while Mexico concedes that the real meaning of the treaty of 1882 is the line as quoted by Guatemala. 5. Both countries accept the average lines drawn from the Usumacinta river, and in case of dispute the question is to be sub- mitted to arbitration of engineers. 6. The geographical position of the Chixoy and Usumacinta rivers is to be fixed from intersection of first parallel to its point of confluence with the Passion river, and the boundary stones are to be placed according to the agreement of Sep- 1883. greement is to be submitted to roval of the legislative bodies of both countries for approval, but to be pre- vicusly published by both countries, if so desired, and the exchange’ of the ratifica- tions must take place before the last day of May. Two coples were signed by Foreign Min- ister Mariscal and Guatemalan Envoy De Leon. —___+e+—___ A Douglass Meeting. Clinton A. M. E. Zion Church at Rock- ville, Md., was the scene of quite a large and appreciative audience last night, who had come out for the purpose of holding memorial services in honor of the late Frederick Douglass. Music suited to the occasion was rendered by the choir, after which resolutions expressive of the senti- ment of the meeting were read by Profes- sor Wm. Proctor. After another selection by the choir the pastor, Rev. Logan John- son, in a few well-chosen words, intro- duced the speaker for the occasion, Pro- fessor Julius J. Chileoat, who did justice to the life and labors of Frederick Doug- lass. He was followed by Rev. C. E. Pip- kins, now over seventy years old, who, in his personal recollections of Mr. Doug- lass, stated that he was present at Chi- cago in 1859 when Mr. Douglass made his famous speech on Webster. . Professor Proctor and others made remarks, after which the meeting closed. LATE SPORTING NEWS —+-— Bules Adopted byjthe American Turf Stmmone Declared :Ontlawed — Action Taken Against Electric Light ‘Trdtks, ss The American Turf: Congress reassem- bled at noon yesterday at Memphis, and after a short session took a recess until evening to attend the ‘races. In the mat- ter of the location of future meetings it was decided that they be held at the city in which a majority of the members are Present at the time the meetings are to be called. That was: the reason for the selection of Memphts as the meeting place this year instead of Cincinnati, where all the previous meetings of the congress have been held. The committee appotnted to inquire into the ownership of the horse Simmons, which was matched for a race with Dr. Rice at the St. Louis fair groundg race track this spring, made its report. On its finding that an interest in the horse was held by men who are not in favor with the con- gress Simmons was outlawed. The St. Louis Fair Ground Association was notified that the match race between Simmons and Dr. Rice, which was set for April 20, must not be allowed, pending a settlement of the question by the com- mittee which has the matter in charge. At the evening session the report of the committee on rules, which was laid aside temporarily last night, was taken up and isposed of, thé congress sitting until nearly 1 o'clock. A number of mingr changes that were recommended the committee were passed upon favorably by the congress, most of them being matters of phraseology, the rules standing in sub- stance as they were. ‘A committee on jockey licenses were ap- pointed by Vite President S. R. Mont- gomery, consisting of E. C. Hopper of Cin- cirnati, J. H. Reese, Memphis, and Joseph A. Murphy, Chicago. The licensing for jockeys wus raised from $3 to $5, and the Tules were amended so as to prohibit jock- eys owning horses from riding the horse of any other owner. By a close vote the congress decided that hereafter all selling races are to be claiming races. The ruling prohibiting any owner from entering more than one horse in a selling race was amended so that any owner may enter two horses in a selling stake, but only one in a selling purse race. In the event of the two horses entered by the same owner in a selling stake race finishing first and second, one-half the excess money is to go to the associa- tion and one-half to the third horse. The ruling providing that unless three horses shall start in a race, the race be declared eff was amended, the requisite number of starters being changed to four. The rule disqualifying horses whose jock- eys weigh after the race with excess of underweight of more than twe pounds was amended, removing the provision for disqualification in the case of overweight, leaving the provision as to underweight as it now stands. An effort was made to change the pres- ent rule providing that “the express con- ditions of any races shall supersede all rules,” but it failed, the rules standing as heretofore. A new, 7ule was adopted by the congress providing, a scale of weights for stecplechases. This is based on the rules governing the*wetghts for flat races, the minimum weightallowed being 125 pounds and the maxtmum 175 pounds. The rule providirg that all bets are to be paid on a horse once in the hands of the starter was so amended that jn case a horse is injured at the post all bets may be declared off and tim# allowed for a new One of the last subjects considered by the congress, but one of the most important matters to come before. it, was that of its attitude toward the ‘so-called ‘electric light” track. Enterprises of this kind, it is understood, are contemplated at Kansas City, St. Louis, Cinginnati and a number of eastern points. ‘The turf congress decided by a unanimous vote not to recognike ‘this class of racing, placing it in the same catefory with winter racing, action upon whith was taken Tues- day night in the case of the Madison track and those who have participated in racing there. A rule was adopted providing that every track included in the membership of the congress shall hold a race rfleeting of at least six days each year, under a penalty of forfeiture of its membership. It was also decided that any association that shall remain in arrears for purses due to owners for a period to exceed sixty days shall be expelled. ‘The next annual meeting of the congress is to be held at St. Louis in October next, when officers will be elected for the ensuing year. ¥ Phe Old Dominton Jockey Club applied for the admission of Alexander Island course to membership. As the track is not of the proper length the club will not be formally admitted, but so tong as the rules of the turf congress are not violated the rulings of the Old Dominion Club will be respected. ‘The Pacific Coast Jockey Club of Saa Francisco, of which Claus Spreckels is pres- ident, was admitted.

Victory for Foot Ball at Harvard. ‘The board of overseers of Harvard Col- lege yesterday voted “that in the judg- ment of the board of overseers, the deci- sion of the question ‘of the continuance of the abolition of the intercollegiate foot ball at the university is within the powers of the athletic committee, under the stand- ing rule of the president, fellows and the board of overseers.” It was further voted “that in the opinion of the board of over- seers intercollegiate foot ball at the uni- versity should be abolished when it is shown that the existing serious evils and abuses of the game cannot be corrected.” This is a vi for intercollegiate foot bail. The athletic committee will now be given an opportunity to revise the rules and the game will be given another trial. Prevented the “Rare Good Sport.” The Cumberland Athletic Club of Nash- ville had prepared for a series of spar- ring matches and glove contests at the club house, beginning last night, when it was proposed to open the club with some “rare good sport” yy 4vell-known profes- sionals. But the board of public works put a stop to the matches by a peremptory order to the chief of police to prevent their occurrence. Upon receiving this notifica- tion the managers of the club postponed all arrangements until next Monday night, Pending investigation of the law bearing upon sparring matche: Too Much for the Tigers.

Bookmakers Were Hit Hard. Another large crowd attended the racing at the St. Asaph track yesterday, and as five favorites and a well-played third choice were successful, the twenty-three bookmakers who weighed in, the largest, number of the meeting, were hit pretty hard by the talent. The track was in fine shape, and the racing was fairly interest- ing. While at the post in the second race, ‘Tom Welch's Leonardo, the favorite, was kicked in the shoulder by Hoey, and so badly injured that in turning into the back- stretch the animal ‘fell with a broken leg, and had to be shot.

A story comes from Norfolk as thrilling as any of Clark Russell's. The Atlas liner‘ Alvena, Capt. Dow, put in there yesterday in distress, having sprung a leak 200 miles scutheast of Hatteras on Sunday morning, in the midst of a howling gale. The pas- sengers were awakened by the engines stcpping and the captain reported a leak in the after bulkhead, and that the water wus gaining rapidly, and the case was cop- sidered hopeless. ‘The passengers sat, with life preservers in front of them at the saloon table for twenty-eight hours, the life boats were pro- visioned and swung loose at the davits. All pumps kept three streams working. Small holes were bored through the bulkhead to the engine room to let the water in where the engineer could put other pumps at work. This and jettisoning 360 tons of the cargo, consisting of coffee,sugar and honey, saved the ship. Capt. Dow was brave and ceol. > The crew consisted of four sailors, and but for the shipwrecked crew of the schooner Frarg: Pratt Lee, who were taken on board at Kingston, and two stowaways fcund on the Alvena, the ship would have sunk before she could have been lightened enough to save her. Among the passengers on the Alvena was Mr. John H. Fowler of Baltimore, presi- dent of Navassa Phosphate Company. Mr. Fowler is on his way to Baltimore from Navassa Island, where he has been on busi- neces, and he tells a thrilling story of his ex- perience on the leaking ship. The steamer left Kingston on the 3d instant, and since Sunday night, when the leak occurred in the midst of a gale, she has been in immi- nent denger of sinking. Mr. Fowler's Story. “I retired Sunday night,” said Mr.Fowler, ard awoke about 1 a. m. to find the engines at a standstill. The vessel was pitching about in a heavy sea, and huge waves were washing over the decks. The engines soon started, however, and I did not worry until the next m ing, when Capt? Dow was ab- sent frém his seat at the table. After breakfast I sought him in his cabin and was told that a leak too serious to be mended had sprung, and that water was making in the hoid very fast. Al the pumps were at work, but the stern of the ship was rapidly settling, and it was found Lecessary to jettison the cargo in that part of the vessel. This was a difficult task, as the storm was still raging and the hatches could not be kept open for any length of time. “At least $100,000 worth of coffee, rum, svgar and spices was thrown overboard. On Monday the captain told us frankly that he did not know whether we would ever see land again, and from that time rntil we anchored inside the capes last right nobody slept a wink. There were thirteen first-class passengers, including several ladies, but there was no panic or excitement. ‘The bravery shown by the women was remarkable. Monday night the passengers heid a prayer meeting in the cat¥n, We had then almost given up hope. The high waves threatened to break into the cabin at any moment, and the stern of the boat was still settling. By jettison- ing more cargo ip the stern hold, however, the boat was kept in the water: If she had ever tiited in the storm nothing couid have saved us. ‘ Quaker Oats makes the muscles stronger, the bones harder, the brain brighter. i /BRIAR PIPE N AWAY MIXTURE for > os ce nts Every pipe stamped DUKES MIXTURE or <at> ae eed RAE epee troubles and the sickiess peculiar to women, cured where ail else 2oz.
