CLUBS -.70°{ ‘BE STRENGTHENED Considering Remedies for Elimin- ~atimp: Rowdiness. - fe ove am PROPOSED, REGULATIONS The meeting of the National League mag- nates in Philadelphia next month is looked forward to with a great deal of interest, * | both by the base ball people themselves and the publi¢'at large. The magnates and players.are iuteregied in the adoption of new playing fules and the swapping of players, while the’ dear public with base ball sympatiifes’ is chiefly interested in the trades. It.has been conceded by those magnates who have-talked with newspaper men that there fs not a club in the league that will not be involved in one or more exchange -of Splayers. Perhaps Chicago may be the one exception. The St. Louis club will trade and sell almost any old thing from a player down to a worn-out ghoot-the-chute._ The Louisville club still « | hankers after*hard hitters and second and third basemen in particular. The Cincin- nati managers, President Brush and Cap- tain Ewing, ar¢ also in the same buat as regards hard jitters, brt want the new men for the outfield. Ciacinnati has little timber to trade, and for this reason will ma Probably get into the game next spring TREE PLANTING. Proposition for Heautifying Pension Office Grounds. The decoration of the pension office with trees and plants, which The Star has here- tofore mentioned, promises to take a wider range than was at first contemplated. A new scheme is on foot, which deals with the exterior, and not the inside of the great building in Judiciary Square. As every state and territory in the Union is represented in the pension office by pen- sioners or employes, and it is a structuré of pre-eminentiy national character, it is Sugsested that one or more trees from every one of the states in the Union be planted in the grounds around the build- ing, cach tree to have some distinguishing mark denoting where it grew and by whom : The oak and elm of the New Engtand states, the pine, magnolia and palmetto of the south, growing together with the characteristic trees of the middle western states, it is claimed, would a beautiful and interesting object on, a living epitome of a great, pros- ous and united country. he Sugg: fon is made that the collec- tion be made through the agency of the Grand Army of the Republic, the various pests of which, located in every state and territory of the Union, would doubtless cheerfully aid in the enterprise. It is be- lieved if the habits of the trees permitted their being all planted here at the same time, an “Arbor day” might be appointed, when Grand Army men and other repre- sentatives of 2ach state could be present at the planting. and engage in ceremonies appropriate to the occasion. Beds of orna- mental plants, laid out in designs (which Public Gardener Brown knows so well how to make) around or near the trees would indicate where each came from, and by whom it was presented. Each visitor from the various states would not fail to seek cut and visit the particular tree from his state, and a new attraction would thus be secured for Washington. ‘The author of this idea is Col. Benjamin F, Hawkes, a clerk in the eastern division of the pension office, and it is said to meet the hearty approval of all Grand Army men and others who have heard of it. The matter will be taken in hand by the local department of that order, and if no serious impediment to the success of the enter- prises suggests itself beforehand, a com- mittee will call on Col. Bingham, United Staies superintendent, for permission to plant the trees in’ the pension office grounds. If the proposed transplanting is deemed by competent authorities to be practicable, it is theught. that permiss! can be obtained to do the work. Such trees as are not able to withstand the cold of the winter outside, it is sug- gested, can be planted in boxes, and k through the winter by the fountain basin in the interior of the building, to add the fine tropical collection already in plaee there. Col. Hawkes is an enthusiastic mem! of the Grand Army of the Republic. and one of the original eight Union soldiers who organized that order at Springfield, Ill, the spring of 1865. “The hand of time is gathering awa: our members at a rapid rate,” he said yes. terday, “and some lasting memento is ne ed to help keep our memory gréen in minds of coming generations. ful, God-given trees, which will wave o the heads of our descendants a hund: years after we have been lost in ground. I believe that the Grand Ar boys ail over the country will that at the proper time we will have grandest Arbor day here that Washingt has ever seen.” - —.-_—__ Mceting of Sunday School Workers. A largely attended meeting of those who are serving the Sunday School Associat in its house-to-house canvass, which gan this morning, was Mr. b. H.

President Robison has men to seii and trade that are up in the frent rank of players, and for this 1§-karat gold outfit about eleven magnates of the league are willing to pull off their coats and dig as if their lives depended upon their exer- tion or craftiness. Pittsburg is almost as bad off as the St. Louis ouitilt, with the ex- ception that they have nothing to or trade, but are willing to buy. But three top-notchers are among the players re- served by the Pittsburg club—Donovan, Hawley and Killen—and. of course it would be suicide to let either of these men slip away from the smoky city. In the East. Then the vision is shifted to the east. Bosten is said to be again mixed up in one of those interior broils, Hamilton and Lowe being selected as the victims, trade full of interest can be loo! froni that quarter. New York waats a third baseman, put he will have to be an extraordinary player to supplant Captain Joyce, whose stick work, base running and all-around ability is marred enly by erratic fielding. Brooklyn is another rich and juicy club in the matier of having good men to let owt. Griffin, LaChance and Grim are the men spoken of to go on the block, and perhaps oue or two others. Philadelphia ts the imecca toward which ali the magnates jwith gold bricks to sll or trade have tur..cd their eyes. There are several playetS.an the Quaker pay roll who will have to. be det cut. notably Cooley, Ciem2nts, Dowd, Cross and perhaps Dele- hanty, ard wihere is the club that couldn't use at least que of these men?

Brown and Wagner may let go might turn out to be equally as good as the great trio men- tioned. Here comes the difficuliy that cc fronts the local managers—to be able to tell a good man before he has proven his worth en the fa monds of the National League. What the local enthusiasts hope for is that Messrs. Wagner and Brown may have almost supernatural foresigat and that trades may be forthcoming. Sonfentertecte, Cordontertestergontortectongent The most serious question to come before the league governing body is a double header, viz.: Rowdyismits cause and ef- | fect. One answer will do for both—the 4 | umpire. The rules provide that the runner | shall always be given the benefit of a close decision. In this respect they have been ‘more honored in the breach than in the observance. Umpires have not treated pitchers fairly. The rule allowing corners has been disregarded. See Sond elon not only d feeling on the part of the twirler and the men backing him, but has checked the true spirit of the game, which calis for a fair percentage of hitting. There is little sport in sceing a man pose for a few minutes and then amble to first base on a “pass.” Another breach on the um- pire’s part*is the laxity exercised toward the men in the field and at the bat in per- mitting them to question his decisions where judgment alone is at fault. Even the capta'n3 are larred from such protests, and the enforcing of this rule alone would wipe out about .thrce-fourths of the difficulty. Now is the time to criticise the umpires and magnates, and not while the playing season is on. ‘Then it is apt to breed dis- Es é é of imperfections that + being placed in a first- é perfect goods, and all fall % in the light of dollars an z of value we give in return, z £ in this city. —————— z A Massive Solid Oak Chamber Suite, with bevel plate mfrror; serpentine tops! 4-drawer dresser, English commode, and & regular $30 set—for $17.50.
