CixoiNyatr, Nov. 22.—Ewing, Andrews and Ward, the committee of the Brother- hood ball plagers, tonight issued a lengthy roply to the League's address of yesterda, which they charge thers were many mis statemonts, They say that the assertion that no player has cver been tranaferred without consent is false aud asks if it can be called consent when a man must submit or got out of the buso ball business. The charge of the League magnates that tho brotherhood proposes to travsfer players without consent is branded as a misstate- ment, There is no reserve rule, no arbitrary salary humit, nothing which' encroaches upon players natural bavits, The statement of the League that the Brotherhood contract of 1887 never has been violated is denied, the committes saying it was outrageously violated when the classification law passod and In every case where players' salary was reduced by that law.

That Between the Rock Island and Atohison All the Talk. FREIGHT ONLY PROVIDED FOR. Negotiations Said to Be Pending to Include Passenger Trafic~Talke With Some of the Officials Interested. All Other Subjects Excluded. Cmoaao, Nov. 22.—[Spocial Telogram to Tue Bee.]—There absolutely seemed to be no other subject of conversation today in rond vircles than the sensational trafic agreement completed yesterday between the Rock Island and the Atchison, President Cable today said: I soe there has been a good deal of noiso made over the agreement, more than it deserves. It is simply an agreement for the division of trafic. Of course it gives us a good line which can hold its owa against any competi- tion." President Cable, however, acknowledged that it was a_similar agreement to the one bLetween the Union Pacific und the Nortn- western and had the same objoct in view. 1t had been said by one paper that the acrecment was backed by n cast irou con- tract. This Mr, Cable denied. Like the Union Pacific-Northwestern deal, it was simply an agreement on honor. Mr. Hanley of the Santa Fe talked more freely than he did yesterday. He was en- thusiastic over the prospects of the new route. It could compete with any possible combination for Pacific coast business. Judge Springer, assistant to President Manvel, and to whom a large share of the credit for tho successful formation of the agreement is due, professed to be worn out answering telegrams. When seen by your representative, hesaid: “I don’t think there is anything further to say. In fact, part of the story has already been strotched. The only thing I can add is that the agreement will show the Union +Pacific that it does not own the Pacificcoast. Our line can and will compete with any and all others. The agreement was simply a matter of self-protection. The Rook Island line to Omaha was left out in the cold by the Union Pacific, and by this agreement it will recoup 1tself for losses there,"” General Manager Ripley of the Burlingtan talked frecly on the subject, and in answer 12 questions said: **I do notsee but that it isa perfectly natural thing for the Atchison and Rock Island to do. It is not an alliance wh the other roads are called upon to criticise. I think it is a very good thing for both lines. I do not doubt the Colorado Midlana will be complelea as soon us possible 10 & junction with the Denver & Rio Grande Western, and there all the lines will use that route which will be the shortest one between Chicago and San Francisco. No, I do not think the alliance will have any more disturbing influence_than that be- tween the Union Pacific and Northwestern, It does not affect the balance of the roads, nor do I know of any other alliance to be made. 1n any event the Rock Islaud-Atchi- son alliance is for the Pacific coast business and we think there is very little money in it. The deal;does not disturb us in the least.” The agreement does not cover passenger business, and it developed today that nego- tiations bave not yet been completed for that branch of traffic, It is in contempla- tion, however, to run through vesubuled flyers us soon as arrangements can be com- pleted.

Wheat has risen f¢e with sales of 25,000,000 bushels bere, and Corn only e, with sales of 15,000,000 bushels. Oats rose 5%c and pork products are higher. = The “general course of prices has been upward, however, the advance since November 1 having aver- aged about 11§ per cent on all commodities. Bar silver has risen, in_part perhaps, be- causo of the report that the administration will propose issues of certificates against bullion at the market value in any amount be deposited. \t (:hicago the dressed beef receipts are double those of lust year and of provisions more than double, while the dry goods trade is sutisfactory, with payments easy in the country. The Minneapolis wheat market is very active and the lumber cut is put_at 250,000,- 000 feet, ~ Trade1s satisfactory there and in St. Paul. with improving collections. Business 18 improving in Kansas City, es- pecially 1n holiday zoods. Pittsburg notes still better prices for some forms of manufactured iron. ‘Glass is active and firm and there has been a movement of 8,000,000 bushels of coal down the river. In leather unusual activity for the season is ob- served, especially 1o morocco and goat skins, On the whole the ouflook remains favora- ble. The business fallures numbver 277, ns compared with 205 last week, and 267 the week previous. For the corresponding week last year the figures were 206, S Ry HE QUOTED SCRIPTURE. The Defendant in a Criminal Case akes a Unique Plea. Robert B. Beville of this borough isa queer criminal, says a Williamantic, Conn., dispatch to the Globe-Democrat. He was arrested the other day for send- ing an obscene letter to his comely step-daughter, and United States Mar- shal Bates took him before United States Commissioner Allen Tenny at Norwich, the complaint against him being that of violating a postal law. Beville, who has hitherto been re- garded as a resgec\.ublo citizen, is a slight man, with a rather fanatical mien. After the complaint against him had been read by the marshal, and his counsel had waived examination in be- half of the accused man, Beville sol- emnly arose and asked for a bible. Da- sirous of humoring the prisoner, who is by no means insane, United States Commissioner Tenny undertook to find a copy of the scriptures, but ho sought in vain for one in his own law office, thosa of half a dozen other attorneys in the same building and a neighboring newspaper office, hut finally got one from a demo- cratic politician down the street. Then Beville, bible in hand, after confessing that his offense was an utterly inex- cusable and motiveless one, based a plea for leniency on verses six, seven, eight, and ten, in chapter two, IL. Cor- inthians. He read the verses: "6, Sufticient to such a man is this punishment which was inflicted of many. 4 ‘7, So .that contrariwise ye ought rather forgive him and comfort him, lest perbaps such am one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. ‘'8, Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him. 10, To whom ye forgive anything, 1 of assur- will hardly bo disturbed by the demands from forgive also; for if Tforgive anything to whom 1 forgave it, for your sakes 1or- give Tit in the porson of Christ.” Commissioner Tenny intimated to Bevillo that the United States govern- ment would not be ant to connive at forgiveness of n postal demeanor on ac- count o [ Apostle Paul’s suggestion to the Corinthians. e placed the prisober undor 8500 bonds and he will be tried boefore the United States district court in December. Bevillo's friends think there is more in his offense than has been brought to light as yet,and hint that his wife lured him into doing the misdeed in the hope that he might be sent to prison, and thus she would be able to obtain a divoree from him, A SUSCEPTIBLE WIDOW. How She Was Fleeced by a Company of Parly Swindlers. A worthy widow, Mme, Guindorif,h been fleeced on a large scale by a vel table company of swindlers, says the Paris correspondent of the London Tel- egraph. It was all through a puppy dog and happened thuswise: Mme. Guindorff lived in the Rue do Rennes and had a canine favorite named Lolo. Oae day the pet escaped into the street and wandered atlarge,being oventually captured by a person named Roger,who saw the address of the dog’s mistress on its collar. TRoger is a chevalior d'ln- dustrie of the lirst water. He is also a good-looking fellow, and when he brought home her dog to the aged but amorous widowshe fell inlove with him at fivst sight and told him to eall again. T'nis Roger did, and soon found out that the widow Guindorit possessed o for- tune of 1,000,000 fe: invested in vari- ous socurities, besides some valuable house property. Roger began by pil- fering plate, jewelry, and small articles from his elderly flame, and those ho de- posited with diver ¢ avuncu- lir relatives in offici Monts-de-piete throughout the city. By and by Roger relatod s good Kk to his pot-house companions, who also resolved to make the widow's quaintance, the rescals ing themselves, unde into a firm for the purpose of “exploit- r. They first inveigled her +speouiations, one of them opening a bogus office for this purpose. By this means and by making a strong point of office disbursements, they fleeced the widow to the tune of about £6,000. Then they made her effect a loan, got her to mortgage soma of her property, induced her to embark in commercial affairs—speculations in os- trich eggs, cape diamonds. and pictures —and would have sent her eventually to the French equivalent for the wor house but for two reasons. These were, first, that the old lad relatives, hear- ing wbout her newfangled friends— rather late in the day, though—inter- fered in her behalf, and secondly, that the thieves fell out among themselves and quarreled over the plunder. The olico being sot to work all the mem- bers of the band except Roger, te founder of the charming community, were arrested and will be tried next ! BEER IN A HAND BAG. y A Novel Device for Working the Growler Safely on Sunda An ingenious inventor has supplied the uptown s sper with a *“long felt want” the shape of a Sunday “growler,” says the New York Sun. Hitherto the violators of the Excise law discouraged the Sabbath *‘can 7 beeause the processions in and out the side door of people carrying pails or pitehers called public attention rather too foreibly to the fact that they were selling liquor within the period prohibited by statute. A favored fow were permitted to buy beer for home consumption on condition that the ve- hicle of its transfer from the saloon to the residenco should bo wrapped in paper. But all this is changed now, and yesterday marked the begiuning of the new era. The liquor sellers have procured for themselves sacks of what look like small hand bags. They aré in reality, however, tin boxes covered with leather and supplied with handles. They bold )0 cents’ worth of lager or ale, and are furnished to consxzmers for 25 cents each, the deposit to be returned when the “grip” is. The plan worked admirably yestor- day, and for awhile the police were puz- zled at seeng hundreds of men and women yushing about vhe streets all armed with traveling bags of the same size and color. Many people who would under no consideration be scen engin- cering a foamy pitcher of beer down the avenuo seized the opportunity of laying in a home supply without ehiciting com- ment. Al A Couldn’t Withstand the Temptation, Peculiar temptations beset the voung wowan of fashion, says the Pitishurg Dispatch. A church congregation near Little Washington has beea working hard for a week or two getting ready boxes of clothing for the home missions. A young lady who is pather noted for her szyliish dress had charge of the filling of one box. As she turned over the various articles she came to a tailor-made dress which some wealthy woman had contributed. Inside the band at the ncek she perceived the mystic word ‘“‘Redfern” stitched, It was but the work of a moment and a sharp pair of seissors to cut this trade- mark from the dvess. As she pncked away the dress, having put the bit of pilfered tape in her pocketbook, sho said to herself: “What does n mission- ary’s wife know of fashionable dress- makers? It will be the mal new walking dress.” Al Al Uncomplimentary and scientific, Chicago Tribune: Caller (patroniz- ingly to Boston five-year-old)—That's a beautiful sailor suit you are wearing, Jamesy, It makes you look like a reg- ular little salt, Jamesy (indignantly)~Mamma, this person says I resemble a small quantity of chlorde of sodum.
