Minor Magnates Dickering for the Grounds in Baltimore and This City. Satisfactory arrangements were completed in New York yesterday by which the base ball territory at Baltimore and this city, clubs, passes over to the Eastern feagué. A conference was held in Philadelphia yesterday morning between members of both leagues. Col. John I. Rogers, repre- senting National League interests, sug- gested that a dispatch be sent to other j | members of the circuit committee, asking bn ul oF A AN their approval of a plan agreed upon by the conferees of both organizations.

Powers, president of the Eastern League, received a telegram from Rogers, as follows “Committee approves suggestion. I will prepare proper papers when you are ready to act. The Eastern League may now arrange Its circuit for 1900, and a circuit committee, to be .appointed, will determine whether it is best to go on with eight or ten clubs. Springfield 1s the stumbling block, as th: city is not anxious to retire. When the Eastern League men saw Col. Rogers in Philadélphia they were willing to lease the Baltimore grounds, but did not care to purchase the ball park fixtures. Col. Rogers said he was not authorized to effect a le: and the committee returned to New York. Later Col. Rogers notified President Pow- ers that the National League will lease the grounds to the Eastern League for one year. If at the termination of that time there is no opposition to the National League the contract will be renewed. Should there be a rival organization, how- ever, the National League will retain the grounds for the use of an American Asso- ciation and the Eastern League will be given first option for the Baltimore and Washington frenchis It now seems to be a question of how many cities shall be included in the East- ern League circuit,” said Mr. Powers last night. “That question will be decided by a committee of five, which I shall appoint. It is not probable that our circuit will in- clude ten club: Application for membership in the East. ern League were presented by represent: tives from New London, Fall River, New ark, Jersey City, Manchester and Hamil- ton, Ont. The committee which will be up- pointed by President Powers will have the Same power and scope to deal with a cir- cuit question as did the National League's circuit committee. The committee will be mpowered to call a meeting of the league at any time and present a report. An entirely new constitution will be framed by the Eastern League for {ts gov- ernment. It will be a modification of that under which the National, Western and Eastern leagues are at present working. 935 Pa.

Frank’ Erne, the champion lightweight of the world, defended his title by defeating “Joe” Gans, the colored Baltimore light- weight, in the twelfth round of a bout that was scheduled for twenty-five rounds at the Broadway Athletic Club, New York, last night. Owing to the high price charged for admission, which was from $5 to a much higher sum, there were many vacant seat: Erne had the better of the fight throughout, and punished his opponent severely. In the twelfth round he sent his right to Gans’ face, and a clinch followed. After they sep- arated Gans dropped his hands and gave Wi] up the fight. Blood streamed copiously from a cut over hig eye. Gans’ manager alleged that Erne had butted Gans, and Gans sald that he could not see to continue. Before the fight began Gans was the fa- verite at 100 to 80, but before it had gone far the betting changed in favor of Erne. There was some delay in beginning on ac- count of Erne’s managers, who insisted that judges should not decide the fight, but that the referee should give the decision. The club finally decided in his favor. Each seemed to be in perfect condition when the gong called them to the center of the ri s into the former's corner and landed a straight left to the stomach. At the closa of the round Gans landed a straight left- hand punch on Erne’s face. ne opened with a rush in the second round, forced Gans into a corner and land ed a right and left to the head. Erne then forced Gans across the ring, and sent three swift left jabs on the face and an upper- cut on the negro's chin. He put his left to Gans’ face as the round ended. In the following round, after an exchange of lefts on the face, Gans landed a straight left on the jaw. Erne swung a light right to the wind in the fourth round, and Gans hooked a light left to the face, Erne then led his left to Teeth Won’t Decay clean them with DR. TOOTH POWDER.

Gans cut"his opponent's right eye with a left swing in’the sizth round. Erne landed in the same place on Gans’ face in return.

The Carroll Institute five |v: played three games upon their own alleys last night and, dropping two of them to the young men from the Christian Associa- tion, fall back to a tie with the Saenger- bund for first place. The week has been rather disastrous to the Institute players, they having lost four of the six game: played. Last night the attendance was very large, and, responsive to the Carrols’ special invitation, the ladies were present to enjoy the games and make the occasion attractive. Many of these ladies were loy- al adherents to the colors of the Associa- tion five, and it is to be greatly regretted that some of the rooters for the home team saw fit to disregard their presence and the ethics of bowling to so great an extent that Capt. Cox of the Carrolis found it neces: sary to request more courteous treatment. Bowling has long held the reputation of being one of the cleanest of amateur athlet- ic sports and it is to be hoped that a few thoughtless ones will not let their enth asm carry them so far that an odium ma’ come over a game that the players have tried to promote in popularity. Last night’s struggle was a great one, with the odds heavily against the Carrolls from the fact that Merritt and O'Connor both fell into a bad streak and bowled poorly in each game. Harlow, Rice and Gorman each bowled a consistently brilliant series, but three men cannot play against five and win. The Association men played a great game, the team standing closely to- gether and all averaging well. In the first game Carroll was left very badly, the visiting team winning by more than a hundred pins. The Association was remarkably strong on strikes, their total for the game being one of the best of the year. Every man on their team made a double-header, while Miller had four strikes together in the early part of the game. The score follows: FIRST GAMB. Carroll Institute. ¥. M. Rice. 5 Harlow: ‘Totals... The second game was a close contest and was the property of either until the Jast in- ning. Then the Carrolls found they were just too far behind to win out, and while they finished in good style, were held down by an equally good finish on the part of the |. other, side.

For the fifth consecutive time the teams representing the chess players of the United States and those of the United Kingdom began playing yesterday for the silver cup given by Sir George Newnes. Most of the men in both teams have played before, the exception being S. W. Benton, one of the strongest players of Philadelphia, and a young Englishman named Ward, who is promising and brilliant, according to Lon- don reports. The arrangements in the as- sembly rooms of the Brooklyn Academy ot Music, where the American end of the match is being conducted, were about the Same as in previous matches, the progress of the games being recorded on ten big boards suspended from the wall, affording a full view to the audience. The usual exchange of courtesies was started by the American team sending the following dispatch to the British team: “Fraternal greetings. The hope for vic- tory will inspire our efforts.” The Brooklyn Chess Club sent the follow- ing dispatch to the British Chess Club in London: “Cordial salutations. We have put_our best foot forward and hope to keep jour cup.” Sir George Newnes sent this dispatch to the president of the Brooklyn Chess Club: “Once more we meet in friendly rivalry. May the match be as pleasant now as on former occasions, and may the best team win. The members of our team send their heartiest greetings to their American cous- ins und will do their best to bring the cup once more to this side.” tly at 10 o'clock Leopold Hoffer, the wt umpire in London, sent the foi- lowing message to the British representa- tive her il you toss for move? Brit- m ready he drawing resulted in the American team getting first move on the odd-num- bered and. second on the even-numbered boards, while the Englishmen had white on even-numbered and biack on odd-numbered boards. By a singular coincidence it so hap- pened that each player on the boards, one to ten as numbered, has had move and sec- ond move alternately. The American chess enthusiasts took it as a good omen that the national champion, Pillsbury, had the move against Blackburne, and they confidently expect him to win. The American players for the first time wei lation club run postal will be used each week, as formerly Treasurer Joe Benner and Captain Ea S. Byrnes made a ride Sunday week to Bowie, Md., over roads that were horrible, and to make matters worse these two rid- rs were caught in a snow storm and the | wheel had to be abandoned for the train.

Action Taken Last Night by North- west Suburban Association. A well attended meeting of the Citizens’ Northwest Suburban Association was held last night in St. Ann's Parish Hall, Teniey- town, C. C. Lancaster, president, J. W. Chappell, secretary. Among those present were: Rev. H. E. R. Reck, Prof. Geo. A. Hill, C. C. Lancaster, Louis P. Shoemaker, Prof. W. B. Ireland, Wm. L. Conley, Thos. Hurdle, Horace 8. Jones, Chas. Morgan, Robt. Burrows, Wm. Heider, J. W. Chap- pell, C. E. Kengla, J. E. Shoemaker, A. J. Yowell, Wm. M. Brown, Dr. A. M. Ray. Edward Brooke and C. W. Zimmerman were elected members. Messrs. C. C. Lancaster, Prof. Geo. A. Hill, Louts P. Shoemaker, Prof. W. B, Ireland. Col. R. I. Fleming and J. Ww. Chappell, M.D., were appointed a commit- tee to walt upon the Senate District com- mittee and urge appropriations as follows: $50,000 for bridge across Rock creek on Connecticut avenue extended; $10,000 for ™macadamizing Wisconsin avenue; $20,000 of the $60,000 estimated for county roads to be allotted to the county west of Rock creek; $5,000 for remodeling the public school at Tenleytown: $4,000 for electric lights on Grant road, Pierce Mill road and Connecticut avenue extended, and $00 for rental of police substation at Tenleytown. A resolution indorsing Mr. Louis P. Shoe- maker for District Commissioner was adopted. A resolution proposed by Prof. Ireland on the public school question was passed unanimously. It sets forth that “there have recently appeared in the local press several communications ‘severely criticising the methods and the management of our public school,” and states that the association is “convinced that said criticism emanates mainly from either the uninformed or the misinformed.” it is further set forth that the association wishes “to be recorded as believing that our schools—measured by the only correct standard, viz, their results— rank considerably above the average public school of the country, and that in our judg- ment this success is chiefly due to the wise and liberal management of the authorities directing the same, and that in the chief executive officer of that body, the superin- tendent, we have a man in whose wisdom to displayed a predilection for what are tech- nically termed open games, which afford a better field for aggressiveness and eventual brilliancy than the close openings which the majority of the Britisk players adopt. Although the first day’s play left Great Britain in the lead by the score of 1% to 14, the outlook is nevertheless encouraging for the American players. They are at no seri- ous disadvantage on the remaining boards, while they have the better positions on four or five tables—those of Showalter, Hymes, Voigt and Delmar—white Pillsbury, Mar- a and Barry shou!d do no worse than raw. Here follow the pairings and the openings: Patrings. 1, Pillsbury vs. Blackburn. 2. Lee vs. Showalter... z . 4. Bellingham vs. 5. Hymes vs. Mills 6. Lawrene . Voi 7. Marshall vs. Jacksou. 8.

The run tomorrow of the Columbian ‘Wheelmen will be to Marlboro’, Md., leav- ing the club's headquarters at 9:30 am. Many members have signified their inten- tion of making this run, and as the new sweaters have arrived it is more than likely that all will be in uniform. The next regular club meeting takes place on the eve of Monday, April 2, at 8 o'clock, at the Hotel Regent.
