Lyofs made his escape to the Black Hills and has lived a respectable life ever since. A brother of the murdered man is pushing the case. A number of the witnesses of the shooting are still llving. The case ls sald to be strong against Tier. Western Col ction Work. GUERNSEY, Wyo., Dec. 10.—~(8peclal.)— 1t seems probable that when the Burlington begins work on its Guernsey-Salt Lake line operations will be commenced at both ends at the same time and the project rushed to completion. The party of Burlington surveyors who have been running a new line west from this place, the old line surveyed last summer be- ing impracticable, have moved their camp from Hartville Junction to Mud Springs, fourtoen milles west of Guernsey. The new survey, which merges with the old at & point about twenty miles west of here, will be completed in a tew days. Contractors will then be asked to revige their bids for this particular piece of road, and it is expected that contracts for the extemsion to Salt Lake will be awarded soon after the first of the year.

IMPORTANT BUSINESS IS BEFORE THEM Ban Johnson, Nick Young, Mugasy McGraw and Other Living ‘Insues to Be Conmidered and D poned of Some W NEW YORK, Dec. 10.—~With another pos- sible base ball war staring them in the face the National league magnates entered upon their annual winter meeting at the Fifih Avenue hotel tonight. This session is one of the most Important ever held in the his- tory of the league and will probably last throughout the week. With the American league, with Mr. Johnson steering its des- tinles, clamoring for equal recognition by the parent body, and the threatened invasion of Natlonal league territory by Johuson's organization, the members of the big league have their hands full. The magnates began arriving in the city this morning and up to tonight the following members had put in an appearance: Presi- dent N. B. Young; A. H. Soden and W. H. Connant, Boston; Charles Ebbett, F. A. Odell and Edward Hanlon, Brooklyn; Colonel John I. Rogers and A. J. Reach, Philadelphia; Barney Dreyfus, Pittsburg; John T. Brush, Cincinnati; James Hart, Chicago; F. de Hass Roblson and Stanley Robison, St. Louls, and Fred Knowles, New York. J. B. Billings of Boston, J. B. Kerr of Pittsburg and Harry von der Horat of Brooklyn will arrive tomorrow. Nick Young's Position, The possibility of trouble with the new American league fs not the only question that the magnates will have to handle. The much-talked-of retirement of President Young as the league's chief executive will also come up. That certain magnates are opposed to the continued incumbency of Mr. Young s an open secret. Several days ago those opposed to Mr. Young put forth A. G. Spalding as a suita- ble successor. Mr. Spalding, however, h: declined the honor and its attendant burjen. But Mr. Young declines to be ousted. In an interview tonight he said: ‘“Me resign? I do not see why. I have no idea of taking any such steps. I do not know—officlally— of anybody that i clamoring for my scalp. On the other hand, several members of the leaguo have come to me and told me th wore very well satisfled with my work. No, 1 am not golng to resign.” The report tbat John McGraw had signed @ ten-year agreement with Mr. Johnson today, by which he throws his destinies with the American league, gave the mag- nates more food for reflection. McGraw, it 1s sald, will have charge of the Baltimore club if It is taken Into Johnson's Amieri- can league. Further than to belittle the apparent chance of a conflict with the American league, the magnates today re- fused to discuss the situation. A commlt- tee composed of Hugh Jennings of Brook- Iyn, Zimmer of Pittsburg and Harry Tay- lor, the organization's counsel, of Buffalo, will walt on the magnates and present (he players' clalms relative to the ‘‘farming out” and salary question. Western League's Interest. T. J. Hickey and George Tebeau, repre- senting the Western assoclation, are here to press the claims of that assoclation for the territory left open in St. Paul, Kan- sas City and Minneapolis by the American league. The complaint made by President Ebbitts of Brooklyn against McGraw and Robinson for assaulting Umpire Geftney will be taken up during the meeting. About the most talked-of deal was that between New York ard Pittsburg by which Doyle may be exchanged for Willtam. The Board of Arbitration went into sion after 9 o'clock, with President Young, A. H. Solon, John T. Brush, John I. Rog- erc. James Hart and F. de Haas Robison prosent. Mr. Robison and Mr. Brush are 80 sick that they may not be able to remain to the end of the meeting. Mr. Robison has inflammatory rheumatism, which nearly cost him his sight. CHICAGO MAN WINS EASILY Schmitt Outplays Billiter of Minnc- apol Amateur Billlard Tournament. NEW YORK, Dec. 10.—Charles 8.

In the third inning Schmitt had a cipher marked up while Billiter made three. Schmitt than contributed a third eleven and_Billiter falled to respond. Thirteen was Schmitt's next contribution and the next time Schmitt put up eleven. This was fast bil- liads, and all through the game the Chi. cago' man, while playing with assumoed recklessness, always had his eve on the balls and when he slowed up somewhat in the middie of the game " broke out again with a bunch of thirty caroms in hls thirty-first inning and many of his misses afterward were causeq by ow cenfidence or carelessness, as It was evi- dent that he had the game well in hand throughout, Billfter did not scem to be playing up to his usual form. At every stage of his play he impressed those who watched him with the fdea that he was satisfied th his opponent could beat of affairs may be account thtat early in the afternoon in a_praci fome Schmitt beat Billiter by 125 pol h A game of B0 up and as the resuit shows the Chicagoan came within twenty. three points of repeating the dose.

The players were John A Hendrick of this city, formerly the ama- teur bill'ard champlon’ of Connecticut, and Willlam Paige of Boston. This was the third game of the final serles, but it was the first time that Hendrick piayed in this year's tournament. Hendrick held a slight fdvantage over Pilge up to the fourteenth inning, when he made his big run of forty- elght by good, all-aroand work. 1t looked for a time as if he were woing to take highest run honors from Ferguson who ran Afty-six_on Friday afterno ) rumn with Palge, but”in his forty-ninth nning the balls were in a diffieult po-ftin and he was compelled to (lkr n threa- cushion carom, which he missed by barely & hair'a breadth, From this point on, how- er, the game was nover In doubt, the New Yorker always having a good margla o his credit.

How & Loyal Engineer Did His Brother Great Service. MEADVILLE, Pa., Dec. 10.—(8pecial.)— The Loyalty of the Members of the Broth- erhood of Locomotive Engineers is prover- blal, A circumstance occurred in this clty some days ago, which emphasizes this feel- ing. Fraonk J. Zeller is chief of the Brother- hood of Locomotive Engineers No. 143, He is extremely popular among his fellow rail- way men, and one of the best known engi- neers running out of Meadville. When the announcement was made & short time ago that Frank was pretty sick it caused a groat deal of regret among the boys. Soon he was missed from his engine, having had to “lay off” on account of his back- A brother of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, who had been i1l with similar symptoms, some time before, and who had been pulled through, called to see Mr. Zel- ler, and in a brotherly way, took him a box of Dodd's Kidney Pills, the Remedy which had cured him. He advised Mr. Zeller to try them, with the result that after seven boxes had been used, he was entirely well, and able to work. In an interview Mr. Zeller states: “I had suffered for four years with this afMiction, being often kept awake at night with pains, and at times unable to work. I tried several of the advertised remedies, and found that théy did me no earthly good. Finally, & member of our order, who had been cured of Kidney Disease by Dodd's Kidney Pills brought me a box and asked me to try them. I had little faith in them, but 48 @ Arowning man grasps at a straw to help him, #o I took the Pilla. I used | even boxes and am today as well and | strong & man as there is in Pennsylyania.” Naturally, Mr Zeller feels very grateful, and his complete recovery has delighted bis many friends, and none more than the 400d brother, who feels that he was in- trumental in saving the life of the chiet Dodd's Kidney Pllls never fall to cure Kidney Trouble.
