BRUSH’S REMEDY Hia Blacklisting Resolution Adopted by the:National League, NOT A CORE’ FOR NOISY KICKING College Eights Make Their Ap- pearancé ori the Water. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES The Natioral Base Ball League yester- day afternoon, at St. Louis, adopted the Brush remedy for obscene or vulgar lan- guage on the ball field. This, however, nas ncthing to do with rowdy playing, kicking against decisions and otherwise making the game unpleasant for spectators. That will be dealt with seperately. t A special from St. Lovis says that thirty representative newspaper write® were in attendance by invitaticn of the “tpagnates” at their afternoon session of “the league yesterday to listen to the discussion of the Brush resolution against the ude of vile and unprintable language by players on the ball field. When President Hanlon announced in the opening sentence of a brief, but forci- ble, address that the vote of the Baltimore club would be cast for the resolution, the newspaper writers gave him applause. His next statement was also received with demonstration, but this time protest suc- ceeded approval. “When I began my career as a player in 1776," he resumed. “You mean 1876," was chorused by the press representativcs, and the popular manager joined in the good- natured laugh which followed. Mr, Han- Icn then proceeded to condemn indécency, and pointed out the recessity for the adop- tion of the resolution. John T. Brush, chairman of the commit- tee, presented the repcrt, which embodied ecmmunications from club owners, um- pires, members of the press and others. All the club representatives present spoke ia ever of such action, but differed as to de- tails. On motion of President James A. Hart of Chicago, the press representatives were asked to express their opinion on the sub- ject. They were unanimously in favor pf scme action looking toward the doing away of rowdyism and vulgarity. As the unanimous views of the commit- tee, Chairman Brush submitted a report, shown by its title to be a measure for the suppression of obscene and vulgar lan- guage upon the ball field by players en- gaged in playing a@ game in the champion- ship season, while under contract with a National League club, to the end that the game may retain its high position, etc. Adopted Unanimously. It was adopted unanimously, Mr. Robison of Cleveland rising to explain that what- ever opposition he nad shov'n to such iegis- lation had been for the pucpcse of bringing out an expression. In the absence of Presi- dent Freedman-of New York his vote was cast by A. H. Soden of Boston. The measure includes twenty-three regu- lations. It provides that the regulations Shall be explained te and read by every player and employe in the league, who shail then be obliged:to sign them for the pur- pose of showing that this legislation had been brought to'his- attention. It is provided that:it shall be competent for any person or pérsons, whether player, manager, umpire, clab official of any elub, or spectator, to submit information and testimony in writing, under oath, concern- ing bad language by a player or employe of a National League club of which they have rersonal knowledge. All charges of offense under this measure shall be submitted to the president of the league, under oth, Within forty-eight hours of its alleged commission and the president shall immediately furnish a copy of the same to the accuged for his defense, with the written notice of suspension, if any. Five days, after the receipt thereof by the accused, shall be allowed the one charged with the offense for transmitting to the president of the league under oath of the defense, and the case when thus prepared shall be submitted by the president to a tribunal of three judges selected by this league, to be called the “board of dis- cipline,"” who shall have absolute authority to acquit or convict upon the evidence sub- mitted, according to the rules adopted for its government and from which there shail be no appeal except to the board of direc- tors of the league. When a case is thus submitted to said board, the president of the tribunal shall report in writing his opinion and finding in the premises, and if the offense be proven he shall affix the penalty that in his judgment should be imposed. It then goes to the oiher members in turn for judg- ment, and the president of the league shall carry into effect the sentence of the majority as to the player's suspension or acquittal. When the members of the tribunal or a majority thereof do not agree upon a judg- ment, the president of the league shall select some one of the opinions as the one to be followed (providing it be not the extreme penalty), and that shall be considered the judgment and be enforced. ‘The penalty for using obscene, inde- cent or vulgar language within the mean- ing and intent of this measure is entirely within the discretion of the tribunal and may be suspension for days, for months, for the unexpired season, for a year or for life, according to circumstances and na- ture of the offense. The extreme penalty measure, viz.: “Life expulsion” shall require the unani- mous approval of the three members of the tribunal, and provided also before im- posing such'a penalty the accused may de- fend himself in person and by counsel, in which event the president of the tribunal shall call a meeting of the board. The first tribunal under this provision shall be composed of L. C. Krauthoff of Kansas City, who shall be selected to serve three years; Louis Kramer of Cin- cinnati, who shall serve two years, and Frederick K. Stearns of Detroit, Mich., who shall serve one year, and, beginning with 1899 and each year thereafter, there shall be one member elected to serve three years. The foregoing matters take up fourteen sections of the measure. Those following provide for the compensation of clubs losing players by suspension and cover minor metters pertaining to the govern- ment of the tribunal. imposed in this PLEASED WITH THEIR WORK. Base Ball Magnates Will Probably Finish Today. ST. LOUIS, Mo., March 2.—There is gen- eral satisfaction among the base ball men attending the.*National League meting over the adoption Yesterday of a measure that will do away with obscenity and vul- garity on the figid in the presence of spec- tators. ee It is remarkhbls’ that not a vote was cast against the apoption of the lengthy regulation that” fs’ expected to purg2 the }and the temperature is not too cold, in Mr. national game of all its hithert@ objec- ticnable features. ‘The magnates confidently expect to get tkrough their business by this evening. There still remains much to be done. The ccmpletion of the playing schedule will teke up a greater part of the time, and in addition to that, the chang? in rules, as recommended by the rules committee, will be discussed and acted upon. A successor to Chas. H. Byrne, cn the board of arbi- tration, will also be chosen. At "10:30 a.m. the magnates resum2d their work, going into executive session. Nothing us to the results reached will be made publi> until after adjournment. ROWING MATERIAL AT HARVARD. Good Results Seen of Coach Leh- man’s Work. Tne outdoor work of the Harvard Uni- versity rowing squads was fairly begun yesterday afternoon, when the captains of all four classes had their men out on the river. The seniors, sophomores and fresh- men had their barges out and made up crews. The juniors’ boat was not rigged, and all the men were given tubbing prac- tice. The work of all the crews was un- usually good for the first day on the water and was in marked contrast to the crude state of development at this time last year. This shows that in spite of the defeat of last summer the fruits of Mr. Lehman's system are now being realized. At least three times as many men whe knew how to handle an oar and sit at ease in a shell are available this year, a sure sign of an improved standard of rowing. The seniors had iwo crews on the river, and the men were coached by Geo. Mum- ford. The order was: ew—Stroke, Dobbias; 7, 5, Goodrich; 4, J. H. Perkins; 3, Riggs: Moulton; bow, Adams. Second crew—Stroke, Kinnicutt; 7, Dubois; 6, Bull; 5, Wadsworth; 4, Marvin Barnes; 2, Shea; bow, Burney. Mr. Storrow had two eights out from the freshmen squad. The men had, of course, no knowledge of water matters, but the Material appears good. Last year’s ‘varsity crew "members are working with their classes, but their time is given principally to coaching. AWAY, No Match rell. A large crowd gathered at Stubener's road house last night to see the twenty-round sparring contest between Ralph Irwin, white, of this city, and Jack Farrell, col- ored, of Wilmington, Del. The first round demonstrated that the white boy was com- pletely outclassed in every respect. After he had been struck two or three light blows in the second round he jumped through the ropes, and, in his frantic endeavors to escape from his agile opponent, crawled under the seats behind the spectators. His conduct was a great disappointment to his friends, who had contended that he was the best boy of his weight in the District. Farrell won so easily that it was not pos- sible to get a line on what he could do in the ring if he were pushed. As an afterplece, Billy Nash and Monk Robinson went on for a fifteen-rouna bout, which, however, lasted only six rounds, Robinson being compelled to give up on account of a sprained arm. He Was for Jack Far- The base ball schedule for the Princeton University team has been issued.

Cornell Eights on the Water. Charles Courtney, coach of the Cornell University crews, issued orders to the can- didates under his training yesterday that the crews would go upon the water today if the weather is favorable. The men were instructed that a flag would float from the boat house if-the crews were to go out. The ice has gone out of the inlet to Cayuga lake, in which the boat house is situated, Courtney’s opinion, for this move. This is three weeks earlier than Cornell crews have been able to go upon the water in previous years. Forty-five freshmen are in training, and there are thirty-two candi- dates contesting for the eight seats in the *varsity shell. Series of Hand Ball Games.

Teddy Edwards Undertaking. “Teddy” Edwards continues to roll up centuries, he having made his sixtieth con- secutive 100-mile run since the first of the year on the suburban roads yesterday. Ed- wards, it is said, is in good condition and is accomplishing the distance in better style now than he did a month ago. He is slowly but surely creeping upon the old record made by Knowles several years ago, and he says he has no idea of stop- ping, having undertaken to cover a hun- dred miles every day this year.

Representative Dalzell Refers to Maine Disaster and Applaads the Moderation of the People. The annual gathering of the sons of Yale resident in this city was held last evening at Rauscher’s and proved to be an occa- sion of great enjoyment to all present. There was manifest, as is generally the case when the members of the Yale Alum- ni Association cf the District get together, an enthusiasm for their alma mater which gave additional force to the eloquence of the speakers and imparted irit to the singing of college songs. The Yale blue predominated in the decorations of the room, and the tables were arranged in a Lollow square, around which assembled a congenial company. Foliage plants and flowers lent their beauty to the ene. The arrangements for the dinner were in charge of a committee, consisting of the president, Mr. W. C. Whittemore; the retary and treasurer, Mr. James H. Ha den, and Mess Beach, Head, Scott, Whit- Uesey and Bowers. After the menu had been discussed and cigars lighted, President Whittemore made an address of welcome, closing with a toast to the college, which was drunk by all standing and was followed by the singing of a college song. Justice Brewer's Address. In response to a call, Mr. Justice Brewer made one of his graceful and happy after- dirner speeches. He said that Yale was a great monopoly, that it was a monopoly of brains, consequently a success, which Was due to the fact that she draws to her the bravest young men of the country. He declared that her graduates become fam- ous in their vocations of life, and that Yale has a record which is not surpassed by any college in the countr: He added that the environment of Yale is the best hat can be thrown around any young man. ator Hawley, the next speaker, made a reference to existing conditions, and said the eviderces of patriotism which had been called forth were a just cause of pride, The senator said: “There has been a lot of talk of war, and the cool, half-spoken, half-unspoken ‘words of pairiotism that have been heard all over the country are. indeed, a pride to America. It is magnifi- cent. At any just demand millions will jump to the call of duty, and do their duty as Americars. No just caus: will fail t find ready response among ali Americans.” In an entertaining style Mr. F. D. Head spoke on the subject of “Sterilization and Education.” Situation In Public Affairs. Representative Dalzell said all college men should stand together in the interests of the country. “We are living in a pecu- liar time,” said Mr. Dalzell, “and are just now undergoing such a crisis as this gen- eration has never known. For many months our sympathies have gone out to a people on a neighboring island, who have been suffering from a cruel and unjust tyranny. On top of all this comes the news of an appalling disaster.
