The executive committee of the Wash- ington horse show will hold a special meet- ing this afternoon at 4 o'clock, the date aving been changed’ from yesterday by reason of the absence from the city of sev- eral members whose presence was particu- larly desired. There ZreK number of mat- ters relating to the preliminary arrange- ments of the show to he considered and settled. Manager Harry Field will go to New York tonight and will be in conterence tomorrow and Saturday with the exhibitors who have horses in the show now I progress at Dur- land’s Riding Academy and other horsemen who have already indicited an intention to send strings to the Washington show. ‘The correspondence of! Secretary Fred- erick May and the manager shows increas- ing interest in the event on the part of so- ciety people, as well as.owners and ex- hibitors of horses, and-the officers of the show are certain, even at’ this’ carly date, that the event will be an era in the social chronology of the capital, as well as in its sporting history. Wants to Be Ringmaster. Among the letters received by Manager Field are many of a most amusing charac- ter, and one received today from St. Louis, inclosing a photograph of the writer, shows to what directions human ambition may run. The letter, verbatim et literatum, ts as Not having heard from you in an- swer lo my noie regarding the position of Ring Master to The Was! ington Horse Show I Beg the liberty to Enclose you my photo as I appear for the Ring, except If necessary for matinees I wear a Tuxedo coat, Derby Boots and Breeches, etc. “I conduct my Duties to the success of the show and Interest of the management.

There is no doubt he would be a great attraetion, but there will not be any cliance offered for his employment. SOUTH WASHINGTON BOWLERS. On the Alleys of the Business Men's Club. The two South Washington bowling teams met for the last time this séason on the alleys of the Business Men’s Club last night. The home team succeeded in taking the first and last games, bowling good. strings, that were in marked contrast to their low score in the second game. Rich- ardson bowled in Fuller's stead, and with the exception of the second game did good work for the Business Men. Shlesinger bowled the best single game of the match, securing 189 in the last event, while Martin led the visitors with 186. The Athletic Club did ,much the better work in the early stagés of the opening game, Business Men peing twenty-one pins behind’ at the end of, the first frame. The Washingtons lost heavily+in the fourth, six and ninth boxes, and Blisiness Men won out by fifty pins. ; The score follow: Bus. Men's Bowl. Clu St. Sp. etic Ciub.

SWAIM GOES AWAY] invalids Restored To Health BY THE USE OF ea, nancet a compos! Johann Hoft’s Columbia Whisters Defeat the C. Bi. C. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES Rain and the prospects of continued bad weather for the next couple of days prompted J. Earl Wagner this morning to shake the mud of National Park from his feet and take a short run over to his home in Philadelphia. The head of the Senators will return next Monday and be at the old stand ready for any base ball business that may turn up. Mr. Wagner ventured the dubious prediction that he would find Jack Doyle in Weshington when he returned, as he knew the vagaries of the great first baseman, and 6aid it would be like Jack to put in an appearance here at a time when the head of the club was absent. When asked if his trip might not extend to Holyoke, Mr. Wagner gave a’ cynical laugh and said “Not on your life.” Con- tinuing, Mr. Wagner said: “As much as I would like to have a talk with Mr. Doyle, I don’t think it would be treating the other players right for me to run after a man who has placed himself on record as a ‘hold-out.’ But Jack will be with us the coming season, mark what I say.” No additional Senators reported in Wash- ington today, although “Doc” Amole and Jake Gettman were expected by the mort ing train. Gettman’s car fare was tele- graphed to him over a week ago, anr Mr. Wagner is at loss to account for the Russo- American's absence. All the players in town hugged the com- fortable-looking stove at the Hotel Brown this morning and talked base ball and other sporting maiters. lt is more than probable that the Wash- ington “fans” will not again see Hillary Swaim in a senatorial uniform. The good- natured, elongated buckeye boy had a lengthy coufab with Mr. Wagner last even- irg upon the salary question, and as a re- sult “Cy” gave out the information that he would start for home this evening or at latest by tomorrow night. Swaim told The Evening Star ma i that he had pro- posed to Mr. Wagner that he would sign a condi@onal contract of whatever sort th head of the Washington club would pre pose, but that he thought he was worth an in last year and demanded a wide difference between these figures and Mr. Wagner’s offer, the latter sizing up Hillary’s ability as being worth to the club just exactly $000, the same sal- ary paid the pitcher last season. In addi- t *y” says Mr. Wagner wanted him to pay his own board while in Washington. Hillary sprang all sorts of figures pitel ing percentages, and used his best argu- ments, but the head of the senatorial house was obdurate, and so they parted. As to his future, Hillary says he will try to get on some college nine to help him complete his literary studies, and then bid good-bye to the follies, foibles and trials of the diamond. He has a little business out at his home in Ohio, and says he will be | able to manage along for the rest of the summer if the worst comes to the worst. The buckeye voy is a Httle sore on being ced before the public ever since he don- red a Washington uniform as a funny man, and ascribes the greater part of his trou- bles to humorous newspaper puffs. ANSON TO OWN THE COLTS. He Has an Option on the Club at 150,000, CHICAGO, March 24.—Captain Adrian C, Anson holds an option on the Chicago Base Ball Club that has yet about five weeks to run, and developments of the last few days indicate that there is a chance. that the famous old diamond leader may soon be- come the nominal owner of the club from which ke recently was supposed to have premanently retired. The circumstances of the giving of the option to Captain Anson are as follows: At the time of the expiration of his contract as manager of the Chicago club Captain Anson held a number of consultations with A. G. Spalding. The latter had long been a stanch friend and admirer of the Coits’ leader, and was anxious to do anything in his power to show his regard for Anson. Captain Anson refused to consider any proposition that in the least piaced him in the light of a pensioner upon the Chicago club because of his long services. Nevertheless the veteran admitted he would like an opportunity to get control of the club whose players he had so long man- aged, and many of his friends advised that this ‘would be a fitting climax to his base ball career. Finally, therefore, the Chicago club gave to Anson an option on the pur- chase of the team for the sum of $150,000. j The option was to run, it is said, seventy days. Whatever its duration, it’ yet has some time to run—it is said five weeks. As a further evidence of the possibie transfer of the club, it is known that the contract signed by Manager Burns contains a clause providing that in case the Chicaga team should be sold during the season, the terms under which he has signed shall be- come null and void. When Anson secured the option his friends advised him to make it public, but Anson thought otherwise. It is now learn- ed that a wealthy ma ‘upposed to be a resident of New York city, has interested himself in Anson’s behaif and the veteran base ball player’s chance of becoming own- er of the Chicago club are very bright.
