THE OMAMA DAILY BEE THURSDAY MARCH 17, 1892 e e ———————————————————————————————————————————————————————— 2o e e —— e S e ——————————————————————————————————— WILL PARCEL OUT PLAYERS] First Thing to Be Done by the Western Magnates at the Chicago Meeting. IN TROUBLE OVER THE SCHEDULE Nefore the Panl May Have a Warm Session Campnig and In—Other Sports. ANAGER ROWE left for Chicazo last evening to attend the first spring meeting of the mae- oates of the new Western league, which convenes there The object of the meet ing 1s the allovment of players undor tho supervision of the players' committec, the making of arrangements for the drawing of the clubs by the elght cities in- cluded in the circuit, the adoption of a play- ing schedule and numerous mattors of im- portance. A good bo expected todug. deal ot over disagreement, the adoption of a schedule. As has emanated from headquartors at Columbus in advanc it is the idoa to have the western teams open in the east, or the exchango of home end home games in each section, and then tho eastern clubs come west, roturning homo in time for two games on Decoration day on their own grounds. The moszuls of tho eastern division, however, claim that this cuunot bo done, Thoy arguo that the schedulo will call for 140 games each,and that 1o get these in the prescribed limit embodied between the 12th day of April andjthe Ist day of Ocwober, the first series at home and avroad must bo four games with cach team, and this means thirty-threo games, which will prevent thern from fulfilling thoir Dac oration day games at homo. Anotner thing 1 @ certainty, and that is that each city’s representative will have a schodule of his own, and thero is bound to be an animated disctission before the most feasible and prac. ticul can be aetermined on. Manager Rowo will have Omaba's schedulo in his insido pocket, and when the contro versy shows signs of maturity he intends to spring it, with the hopes of its adoption. I 'tis document calls for a howe and home sevies of four games for both the east and west divisions, and tho east _comes west for a series of threo games instead of four, fol- lowed by a series of four games betiween the two divisions on the grounds of the eastern clubs, On their second trip west the oast ern ciubs aro scheduled for four games witn each city in tho west, which will includo 1 make complete the full complement of games for the season. While Managor Rowe's scheme is a good oue it is doubtful whether it goes through, for the schedule committee will provably in sist on the consummation of pluns of its own origin. In any ovent, however, the local cranks can expect a proper protection of their rizhits at the hands of Manager Dave. Anent too affairs of tho home club.

No defenso of their action or explanation tuercof Is roquired from the board to the club they represent, as it explaius itself, but o N this mattor is one also of general interest 10 the publie it is desirable that there should Le no uisunderstanding upeu 1he subjeot. It is true -as stated by the member of the olub interviewed, but “who prefers not to be oted"’ —that the directors uight bave called & wweliug of the club to consider the pew lJocation, aud tbey might have done many other things and occasioned a wrangle, which would bave resulted perbaps in no location whatever; but helieving that a club building wud & club organiaaticn, properly sapporied and maintainod, were things demanded for the progress and development of the city, they preferred the course adopted, especially also 1n view of the fact that repeated moei- ings had already been held, at whicn it had bern aimost unanimously voted that tho di rectors should mako selection without fur ther reference to the club. I'ho reforance made to Mr. Hitcheock is entirely uncalled for. | am positive that since he submitted a proposition for this same ground at a higher figure, nearly a year ago, tho subject has not been at any tme mentioned by tim to auy member of tho board. The negotiation which bas resulted in the approval of his ground, emanated from the board and I am sure was a surprise to him, The money difference stated as between the two lots is also wrong. Tho sellers of tho Eighteonth and Douglas site required the board 1o pay the taxes levied for the Douglas streat grading, and this joinea with the erading of the lot and paving, curbing aud guttering (all of whicn is saved at tho Twontieth siroet site) makes the actual money difference not for from §15,000, in of §8,000. These considerations, to with the still unsettied erade of Douglas street at this point (Eighteenth street) and the necessity of early action, if a butlding is to bo erected the present year, de- cided the location, which in the board was a unanimous vote. 1donot believe the statement is correct that at least one-half of the young members of the ciub arein busivess in the New York Tafo building and the offica buildings be- tweon Fifteentn stroot and the court house. On the coutrary, the conviction provails that tho active memibers of the ciub are largely taken from the banks, railroad offices and wholesale houses on tho oast of Thirteenith streot, who would be obiiged to rido to reach tho club if located on Eighteenth streot, and who in this respect aro bottor served by the Twontieth street location, as the Harney stroet line runs in front of the ground and the Dodge street cable and Farnam stroet motors are each only one biock distant. So far as the sentiment of tho cluo mem- bers 1s concerned the directors have heard but_one roport, which is of satisfaticn ; not evon the not-to-be-quoted member having deigned to express his opinion so as to be known, A majority of the directors are nouo-club mon—that is they rarely use ov visit the club —but they are business men, chosen largely for the purpose of accomplishing the erection of abuilding. Thoy bave no othor inter- est to servo except that of the club and tho public, and towards the desirable object in view they are propared to work until it is an accomplishod fact. If they did not be- liove thev had with them the support of not a majority only, but of nearly every member of the club, as well as the sympathy of tho public at large, they would quickly yield thoir places to othoers who could then *riloor ruin’ to their heart’s content.

What the Denver Spocial Committoo Says About Paviug Materlals, Chairman Birkhauser bf the Board of Pub- lic Works has just rocelyed a printed report of the special commwittep on public improve- ments sent out by tha city of Denver last summor to investizate pulic improvements in all the leading citios of the country. They visited Now York, Bdston, Chicago, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Washington, Kochester, Buffalo, Detroit, ' Milwaukee, Brooklyn, Omaha aud Kauosas City. The following partly ekpresses their opin- ion of what they saw here: ‘‘The sheet asphalt placed by vhe Barber company 1n Omanga s the worst asphalt paving your committee saw in aay ot the cities visited. The Barber company has given so littie at- tention to repairs and: the streets are in such a deploravle condition thav the council has ordered the oity atterney to commence pro- ceedings to anuul she contracts with the Barber company.” The commitiee concluded that granite olock was the only paving for business sec- tions or streets subject to heavy traffic. It found macadam a favorite pavement in a large number of cities for park drives, boule- vards and light traftic streets, and believed that as laid in Chicago it was the most suit- able paving for such streets, 1t found that asphalt bad been laid to a large exteni in several of tho cities. Somo of it looked well and some was “in_wrotched condition aud would almost make a person sick to ride over it.” The committee found a great diversity of opinion regarding asphalt. It recom- menaed that a fiftcen-year guarantee be re- quired ou all aspbalt pavements, the cost of guaranteo to boadded to the costof construc- tion and taxed on abutting _property, and where moneys are retainod by the city as guarantee, they bo placed at interest for_the benefit of the contractor, although New York withuolds 80 per cent without interest. WE HAVE NO RIGHTS. Opinion of u Montreal Faper o Sea Controversy, MoxTrEAL, March 15.—The Montreal Ga- zette, the ofticial organ of the dominion gov- ernment, in an jpspired article says: The enrly portion of Senator Sherman’s remarks on the solution of the Bering sea question is all that could be desired. The tove of friend- liness (which we are glad to acknowledge is Lo new thing with him) in which he speaks of the relations that ought to prevail between the United States and the motherland does bonor to his patriousm, But the sena- tor soon swerves from the line of good will and impartiality and takes things for granted ia un astonishing way when he talks of pre- venting ‘poaching’ on Fights. that were pur- chased from Russia and which the United States have openly asserted and enjoyed 100 years. \Veareatalossto know what this means. Itis only twenty-fivo years since the bargain was concluded by Secretary Seward: it is only eight vears since what is meant by the word ‘poaching’ was taken any notice of by the United States authorities, and as for purchased rights, those so called rights while unpurchased were disavowed as such by successive Washington adminis- tration BAYS the Bering ——— Dr. Birnoy cures cawrrn.

An Omaha Man T of Mis Experience During the Chillan Tronbie, Mr. J. (. Williams, formerly n citizen of Nobraska, but & resident of Pora during the five yoars last past, is visiting friends in Omaha. He is engaged in horso raising in Peru and has made something of a study of the resources, the politics and the social conditions of the people down thera. Me. Williams feols vory indignant over the action of the Unitea States navy in the Cbilian affair. Speaking of the matter ho snia: “Citizens of the United States who are now rosiding in Contral ana South Amerioan countries are nearly all ashamed to say that thoy are Americans. Captain Schley of the Baltimore had an opportunity to have ismpired the South aud Centarl American _peoplo with respect for the " United States aud its peovlo but he fafled to improve it. Ho should have demanded the release of tho men who wero arrested within half an hour or turned his guns upon Valparaiso and shellod it until the Chilian authorities camo to timo. That's what an English captain would tave dono under similar circumstances, and the Chilians know it. “In all the Central and South American countries tho people respect the English and the English flag bocause thoy know that the English nevy will protect ita peoplo in any port under the sun. On the other hand the Spanish Americans have little or no respoct for Amoricans, because Americans have vory littlo protection from tueir government. “I was arrested once in Mexico aud thrown in jail becauso I attempted to cross the bor: der into another province without a passport. When I was put in jail the guard asked me whiat protection I claimed. 1 said Amerioa. He laughed 1n my face and said: ‘Do you 800 that dog there! He claims Americun rotection, too,' and then he gave the dog a ick. 1 told him he couldn’t kick me and he tried it. I knocied him down and got thirty days in jail for it. I am sorry to say it, but it is a fact that the United States is looked upon with general contempt by nearly all the neople in Spanish-American countvios, while England is respected and Englishmen aro in great favor down there. he Unitod Statos naval officers have too many strings to them. Thoy ought to have moré authority and when they meet with open fusult from such countries as Chili thoy should simply turn looso their guns and shell the town to splinters. A dose or two of that kind would rovolutionize matters in South and Central America, The Spanish Americaus aro figntors und the ouly way to command their respect is by prompt and decisive bravery and battle. Al this red tave and diplomacy means cowardice to tho average Spanish Amorican.” How do the Peruvians like Mr. Egan?’ ‘They like Egan. He is about the only Amorican in tho whole controversy who showed the kind of grit that wins down there. The Peruvians think that Pat Egan would fight in a mivute, and they like him. Tho United States would command the re- spect of a very large class of peoplo in Span- ish America by standing right by Egan.” FULLY ORGANIZED. b-Commit People's Independent Conventlon N The meeting of the goneral committee for the ontortamment of the people's convention, t0 be held in Omaba i July, wasattended by about half of the committecinen named.

SRS WILL MAKE THEM HERE. Arrangements for Establishing a Car W1 Foundry b Arrangements have beon completed by the Real Estate Owners association to assist financially the Phamnix r'oundry company in getting its plant in shape for the manufac- wre of car wheels. The foundry at present has a capacity of making about fifty wheels a day, and theso have been contracted for by the Union Pacitic railroad, In speaking of the quality of the wheels Lowyer Johu T. Cathers of the association is authority for the statement that Mr. Kim- ball of the Union Pacific says that the whoels stood the best test of any wheels he had used. The wheels aro made of a combi nation of three erent kinds of iron vrought from FPittsburg, Conpecticut and Lake Superior. As soon as the foundry coropany can in- crease its capacity for the manufucture of wheals the Burlingtou road it is said will also take fifty or more wheots 8 day. The stroot. railways of Omaha, Council” Bluffs and Sicux City will also make coutracts for their wheols, ‘The foundry now has an expert car wheo! maker and ail of 1ts patterns and molds are made. Itis thought that as soon as this foundry gots under headway there will be other car wheel works established in Omaba, The Union Pacific will save an oxpense of ut least 0,000 & year by having its wheols manufactured in this city. ‘Uh¢ expense will be saved in frelght from the oast, as that road requires 100 wheels a day on' an aver- age. ——e Valkyrie Won, Nick, March 15.—In the rogatta here today Lord Dunraven's well kuown yacht Valkyrio won the race over the course from Nice to Monaco.
