23 EYES ON ST. LOUIS Important Legislation Expected at the National League Meet. SCHEDULE WILL COME O8T MONDAY Speculating on the Opening At- traction at Nationa’ Park. GOSSIP OF TEE GAME Everything is quiet in local base ball circles just now, but it is the calm before the storm. Within the next two weeks fandom will be on edge from reading re- Perts of the clubs practicing in the south and gossip from the different Senators re- porting for duty in Washington. Captain Tom Brown and Pitcher Winnie Mercer have to content themselves with bicycle riding, punching the bag and visiting the theaters just at present, but it is expected that “Duke” Farrell will join this clever pair next week and Jim McGuire is also expected at an early date. Charley Far- rell’'s wife died a few weeks ago after a lingering illness and the “Duke” wrote Brown that as he had nothing to hold him around home he would leave for Washing- ton in a few days. Farrell and Brown were both married while members of the Bosten team. J. Earl Wagner, secretary and treasurer of the Washington club, is expected to pass through Washington some time today on his way to St. Louis to attend the spring meeting of the National League. Intimation of this visit was given out by President Nick Young a few days ago, when he remarked that he had nothing to base his opinion on, but that he thought Earl would come this way, as the Phila- delphia man always liked to discuss base ball matters with him before the other moguls got together for busincus. Captain Brown said today that he knew all the contracts had been sent out to the Players of the Washington club some weeks since, but that he had not heard from Mr. Wagner yet as to how many had signed. As to Jack Doyle's reported “hold back.” Captain Brown would say nothing, as he had nothing to base an opinion on and did not care to discuss the situation from mere hearsay remarks published in the papers. Captain Brown will not be in attendance at the St. Louls meetings, as he thinks there will be no necessity for his presence to look after the Washington club’s interest, from a player's standpoint, as there will be few trades made, perhaps one or two, the business being chiefly with the league proper. Next Monday the magnates of the Na- tional League will congregate in St. Louis Qnd hold their regular spring meeting. While the owners of eleven of the twelve clubs comprising the big league go to that city, it is very doubtful at this writing if Mr. Von der Ahe, the owner of the St. Louis club, will be on hand to receive his fellow magnates. The St. Louis magnate was released on bail yesterday and he may shake the smoke of Pittsburg out of his clothes and leave for home at once, but then again he may not. Von der Ahe can save about $2,000 by absenting himself from St. Louis while the league magnates are in session. If he was in St. Louis rep- resenting the Browns he would be expected to entertain all the other magnates and defray the most of their bills. This is what the Philadelphia moguls did, and at that meeting the St. Louis mogul promised something even more elaborate than the Quaker city set-out. But just now “Chris” is in no position to entertain the magnates in proper shape, and rather than humble imself it is very probable that he will re- main away from St. Louis until the meet- over. e is much to be accomplished at this meeting. The most important matter will be the arranging of this year’s schedule. It has already been agreed that the season will be opened April 15, a week earlier than it was in 1897. About twenty more games are to he played this year than w-re played last season, and as most of the clubs have announced their intention of playing Sun- day ball, Philadelphia and Boston being the anly two cities now remaining in the non- playing Sunday column, a prosperous sea- son all around can be expected. The um- pire staff will be completed, and as the double-umpire system has been adopted, better work in this respect can be looked for. There are about 25) applicants for positions on President Young’s staff. Ems- lie, Lynch and one or two other experts are sure of reappointment, put it is a matter of conjecture who the other appointees will be. Resolutions galore will be presented. The most important one will be that of John T. Brush, which allows for the black- listing of players who use Indecent lan- Suage on the playing field. His measure is considered by some to be too severe, hut it will probably be accepted with certain modifications. A meeting of the official base ball scorers is to be held the night preceding the league meeting, as the scor- ing rules are in need of more uniformity, and it is a safe wager to make that these bright pencil pushers will contribute in no small degree toward the success of the rules committee report. .The question as to whether the New York club would play Sunday ball the com- ing season was discussed at great length last fall. That the Giants will play Sun- day ball on the road 1s probably correct, but Sunday games in Greater New York will not be played this year. President Freedman’s silence on the matter is easily explained. From a reliable source it has been learned that Senator Wilcox, the father of the Sunday ball bill, has aban- doned the measure he presented to the state assembly at Albany. The close of the present session of the New York legis- ture is near at hand, and nothing has been heard of the efforts to legalize Sunday Saines. Assemblyman Harburger has evi- dently been called off by the political mo- guls around the New York city hall, and he will not introduce the bill in the lower house. It is also reported that a prominent member of a church society in Brooklyn kas secured an injunction restraining the Brooktyn club from playing Sunday games should that club make the attempt. The failure of the Sunday ball bill to take root in Albany may have some bearing on the situation in Syracuse, Rochester and Buf- falo, and it is said that it is causing con- siderable anxiety in Eastern League circles. The hope that a Sunday ball. bill would be passed by the legislature has been blasted; of that there seems to be no doubt. This siatement is said to be based upon the most reliable authority. Many believed that the time had come for Sun- day bas ball in New York, but late devel- opments have disabused their minds of this idea. Sizing the question from all sides, it must be admitted that there was no great demand for Sunday games, even after the project had been agitated. John Heydler, the Washington correspon- dent of the Sporting Life, has the follow- ing to say anent the schedule and a guess @s to which club will open up the season with the Senators at National Park on April 15. He says: “Washington’s share in the distfibution of heliday dates by the new schedule is causing considerable speculation among the faithful. In "96 and ‘97 the Senators had to be content without either of the two big holidays at home. The impression seems to have obtained that Washington was a poor holiday town. But last Labor day, with its attendant overflow crowd, probably served as an eye-opener. At any rate, it is in order to hazard a guess that the capital fans will have little to kick about this year as far as the holiday dates go. As to the club that will open the sea- son here, that is more of a problem. There is evidently a precedent in this matter. On the first day of the last schedule meeting Bill Joyce predicted correctly where the six clubs playing abroad would open up. Joyce has a memory, and claimed that it was only a matter of regular turn. If this holds good under the new schedule, Wash- ington has a chance for a great opening card. In "92 Boston was the opening at- traction, in "93 Baltimore, "94 Philadelphia, "9 Boston, "96 New York, "7 Brooklyn. ‘The chances are the champions will open up farther north. Next in turn, then, ecmes Baltimore or Philadelphia, and it is @ most natural conclusion thut one of these clubs will be the opening card. Constder- ing the big midwinter deal and the well- known policy of the league to profit by the unnsual interest aroused, the chances are in favor of the former. to THE EVENING STAR, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1898-24 PAGES. add, the guess is tempered by the universal wish. Everything, however, does not de- pend on the schedule. Earl Wagner once cbserved: “The real value of a schedule de- perds mainly upon the weather and the position tLe club occupies in the race.’ ” Henry “Pepper” Reitz, the new second baseman secured by Washington from Dal- timore, a picture of whom is published this week, has been sojourning at his hom2 in San Francisco since the tour of the All- American and Baltimore teams closed. The photograph from which this picture has been taken is 4 late one and will give th3 Washington enthusiasts an opportunity for the first time to get a true line on the Cali- fornian as to his persoval appearance. Reitz was born at Chicago, Ill., June 20, 1867, and consequ2ntly will be in his thir- Henry Reits, Second Baseman. tieth year next season. It was with the amateur team of the Chicago City League that he learned to play ball. He soon guin- ed quite a local reputation as a fielder, bat- ter and base runner. His first professional engagement was in 1800, with th> Sacra- mento Club of the California L2ague, and he made a fine record for himself, his play- ing being of the highest order. He began the season of 1%)1 with the Rochester club of the East2rn League, but es his health was not of the best he was released before the season was far advanced and h2 re- turned to the Pacific slope and joined his eld club. In 1892 he play>d with the San Francisco club, also of the California and gained such renown during son that his services were in great y the National League and Amer- ican Asscciation. He rec2ived many tempt- ing offers from eastern managers, but after careful consideration finally accepted the ene submitted vy the Baltimore club. He is pretty gen2rally conceded to be one of the cleverest players in the position at sec- end base. He is credited with some re- markable batting and fielding perform- ances, som> of the most noteworthy of the feats being the making of five safe hits in a game between the Baltimore and Boston teams, May 6, 1893, at Baltimore. Stivetts and Staley alternated in the position for th2 Bostons. His greatest fielding feat was the accepting of all cf seventeen chances in a game played in June,. 1890, while con- nected with the Sacramento club. A cor- respondent of the Sporting Life, in a r2- cent number of that paper, said that he had noticed a paragraph going around to the effect that the new Senator did not cever enough ground around second to suit the Baltimor> people. He said the state- Ment was not at all supported by fielding figures. In the first place, Reitz virtually led th> second basemen last year, as Mc- Phee, who excelled him by on> point, play- ed in forty-seven less games during the season. In the number of chances accept- ed, Reitz ied all s2cond basemen but Pad- den, the latter playing tn eight more games. Reitz had forty-four more assists than any man in his position in the league, and that with a fast first baseman on his left who gathered in many a hit which on the av2r- age would have been handled by the second Easeman. In number of “put outs” Reitz is below some oth2rs, but this is easily ac- counted for by the fact that Jennings, with his marvelous ability to touch base run- ners, took nearly all the throws from the plate. The writer concludes by saying that he would admit that Reitz is not a whirl- wind on the bases (what man in his posi- tion, 2xcept Gleason, is a base runner?), but as a fielder he stands every whit as high as Jack Doyle as a first baseman. ‘‘Pepper” Reitz will make many friends in Washing- ten, as he possesses all the qualifications of a gentleman, and besides has the piaying abiilty that will make him extremely Valu- able to the senatorial outfit. Gossip. It is 25 to 1 bet that the Boston club will open the season with the Senators, Brother Heydler to the contrary notwithstanding, and Capt. Brown is guessing the same way. One or two Philadelphia papers com- menced making fun of the St. Louis people over the exchange of players by the clubs representirg those two cities. The St. Louis papers came back at them with a rush, and now the Quaker-cribes are wish- ing they had kept the “hammers” in their pockets. That Cincinnati aggregation looks more fcrmidable as the opening day of the season approaches. The club is certainly a great deai stronger in the pitcher's position and the outfield, while that same great infield remains intact. It is to be hoped all the Players will be content with the salaries offered, as discontent would piay “high and low” with the club’s chances for the pennant. Al. Selbach is expected in Washington at an early date, but it is said he will need a train of box cars to carry the bats he has selected for the players of the eastern clubs. Al. has a great eye for bats, knowing thor- oughly what wood to select and how to sea- son it well, so that when it leaves his hands the players know they have secured a ver- itable treasgre. The vacancy on the board of arbitration created by the death of President Byrnes will be filled at the St. Louis meeting. Two persons, Ebbitts of Brooklyn and Hanlon of Baltimore, have been pushed forward for the place, but it would be no surprise to the knowing ones should Earl Wagner be selected for the vacancy. Earl is a deep one, and every magnate is his friend, and the position of honor can be his.for the ask~ ing. Death came at last to the wife of Charley Farrellat Mariboro, Mass. It was a relief to one long suffering. Only the greatest ad- miration can be bestowed on poor Charley ‘for his devcticn and love to her who has passed away. ton Clobe. Twirler Donovan, the strapping pitcher recommended to Earl Wagner by Jim O'Rourke, is exercising in a Philadelphia gymnasium, and will repert in Washington on March 21. He has recovered from the serious sprair. of his ankie, which compelled his retirement late last season.—Sporting Life. v May she rest in peace.—Bos- Weyhing Signed for Washington. President Young was notified yesterday by Earl Wagner that Pitcher Gus Weyhing had been signed for the Senators, and the con- trect was ertered on the books. Messrs. Wagner and Brown have been trying for scme time past to secure a seasoned pitcher to help out Mercer, their first efforts being toward securing Jack Taylor, then “Kid” Carsey; but failing in both these cases, Weyhing was finally secured upon the rec- cmmendation of Capt. Tebeau of the Cleve- ls1ds. Weyhing has never got into the “has-been class,” although in 1895 and 1806 his work was not up to the high standard set by himself while with the Athietic club of the American Association. Gus possess- e3 all the requirements of a good twirler, having all the curves at his command, plenty of nerve and in addition knows the Weaknesses of every player in the National Leavue. Will Run at Boston. Young and Stewart, two High School beys who have done remarkably well in the athletic Hine, will leave the city today for Boston, where they are scheduled to enter the games which will be held Monday under the auspices of the Boston College. Stew- art will enter the one-mile run, while Young will enter the forty-yard dash and the hurdle race. The friends ef the two in this league magnates in that city next Monday will present the names of the gentlemen se- kcted to act as umpires during the coming season. Charley Snyder’s name will be among the number, and his friends in this city have been congratulating him all day over the eppointment and also throwing bouquets at “Uncle Nick” for placing the old-time ball player on his staff. Snyder was strongly backed for the appointment by his friends in this city, and they also had the co-operation of President Soden of the Bos- ton club and President Robison of the Cleveland club. Charley has always been considered ore of the best arbitrators of the national game in the business, but for some unknown reason has been off the major league staff for the last couple of years. That he will be a success goes with- cut saying. Teddy McGirr's Coming Races. ‘Theodore McGirr, the former Georgetown boy, and recently a member of the team of Georgetown University, is now a m2inber of the New York Athletic Club and will represent that organization in the games of the Boston College, Monday, where he will run in the invitation 1,000 yards, meting the best middle-distance runners in the country. He will also enter the one-miie special handicap. In the mile special he will be scratch man and there is small doubt that he will win, as he iz now run- ning as he never did 1b2fore. = McGfrr is out for honors and announces that he will start in the Marathon race of the Boston A. A., April 19 (twenty-five miles). This is much talked of in athletic circles, as all the athletes agree that he would mak> J. J. McDermott break the record to win. It will be a race where great knowledge of endurance and running combined contribute to success. It is claim- ed that McGirr can ovtrun any distance runner in America at a finish, and wins mest of his races at the tap>. He is the metropclitan favorite, and ts wildly . heered whenever he races. pate A Tobacco Famine. From the New York World. ‘ow, boys, which would you rather have—rmoney or tobacco?” inquired Cap- tain Hughes of his crew at Calcutta. The offer of casn sounded attractive, and the sailors, to a man, chose the money. So it happened thai the ship Kelat, which flies the flag of Great Britain, sailed short on the weed that soothes. Some of the seamen had only one pound to last them to New York. Long before the Cape of Good Hope was reached there wasn’t an ounce of tobacco in the forecastle. Sailors must smoke. The substitutes adopted for the solacing plant were many and curious. “We peeled the bark from the hoops of barrels and filled our pipes with that,” said Sailor Beresford at Black Tom, whefe the Kelat docked, yesterday. ‘We tried ropes’ ends, coffee, tea and biscuit crumbs. “Coffee grounds and tea leaves dried made a_very fair substitute for the real thing. Biscuits also answered very well. When the mate gave a man the stub of a cigar it was such a luxury and so pre- cious that he wouldn’t smoke it all at once. He would crumble it up and mix the reai tobacco with coffee grounds to plece out his refreshing smoke as long as possible. ——_————_-e._ AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &c.
