A HME OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, JANUARY 10, 1903. BASE BALL MAGNATES MEET Peage Con’erence Preliminary Session Held Between Oommitteos. OUTLOOK 1S GROWING MUCH BRIGHTER s for Agreement as to on Which Prospect the Basis Settlement May He Ap- Terms of Jan. 9.—All the committee of the Na and fcan Base Pall leagues met today. The National members are Nicholas and the American mem- the Grand hotel. They met sepa turing the forenoon with the owners and managers In thelr resplctive leagues, many of whom are present well as President Harry Pulllam and Ban Johnson The American members want the dispute over the players passed first. Chair- man Herrmann, after spending the night with Robison, Dreyfus and others, met James A. Hart and other Natlonal leaders this morning and afterward called on Charles Comiskey, Henry Killilea, Charles Somers and others at the headquarters of o American confe CINCINNATI ot the tional here at the St bers at rately An on Eight ence went Into execu- and Presidents Johnson and Pulllam were made the fourth mem- bers of the committoes of the American and National leagues respectively. The elght representatives were the only ones admitted to the conference The discussion lasted from 2 until almost 7 this evening, when a recess of an hour was taken. The conferces then went to another room, where dinner had been or- ered, and the executive sesslon was prac- tically continued while they were dining. A crowd of reporters and base ball men gathered on the outside, among them being J. E. Bruce and C. J. McDiarmid, counsel Sesslon Lasts Hours, The joint conf tiva session at 2 of President Johuson, and stockholders in | the St. Louis club; Manager Frank C. Ban- eroft of the Cincinnati National league club and Manager Charles Nichols of the Kansas City Western league club. The peace commissioners were interviewed as they passed into the public dining room and stated that no action had been taken, although they had discussed all the ques tions in dispute. They had not yet agreed on the extent or even the character of an reement, and were therefore unable to fecide on the arder of busness or what questions should be taken up first There seemed to be a consensus of opin- fog that it would be necessary to reach a sompromise on the questions of territory and disputed players. One proposition discussed was that about a score of players who have eigned con- tracts with both leagues should remain where they were at the time of the “peace" meeting in New York last month. It was also proposed that the American league should hold its franchises for clubs In Pitts- burg and New York. As to Pittsburg, there is some doubt, but it seemed to be understood that the Amers can league would gain a foothold in New York, One of the conferees sald that the ex- change of opinion had done much toward establishing confidence between the oppos- ing forces. Before the meeting each side had mistrusted the other, as there had been considerable misrepresentation. The general discussion was opened by each one of the elght conferees being caliel on to explain just what he favored, what ho thought ought to be done, how It could be done and how far the conference should go. Then a general discussion followed, of the opinjons thus expressed, some taking sharp Yule Tide in Old Kentucky three generations ago meant rare old Sunny Brook amd *‘good cheer.” This Is true foday.

Tn response to & question he admitted that amalgamation had been freely dis- cussed, with specific plans for a twelve- club league und other changes, and special consideration had been given to contract Jumpers. 1t was conceded by all that the conference would complcte its work tomorrow, and [ this was generally interpreted as indicating | that the ccaferees were really getting to- | gether on the principal terms that would | enter Into a ace agreement. It Is even stated that drafts of such an agreement have hoen drawn up and presented, while | 1t 1s known that a number have drafts of different provisions that they want incor- porated Into the peace treaty. Although it was recognized that the conferees have final power it 1s general,y understood that they adjolrned soomer than expected to- | night, In order to confer with others. ot | their respective leagues. | The representatives of both leagues eaid that It was by no means tlme to arrange for a jollification, but the prospects for such an occasion were much better tonight they were this morning.

G Weekly Review of Trade say Collections are notably prompt at leading centers, bearing testimony to the fine financtal condition of the nation's in- dustries at the opening of the year. Dis- tribution of merchandaise is heavy and manufacturers are pressed for prompt de- livery. Orders for spring goods come freely and In some lines there Is more than a sample business in fall welghts. Tardy deliveries In the past lead purchasers to anticipate requirements more than hereto- fore and orders are being placed far in advance of actual needs. Fuel Situation Still Serious. The fuel situation Is still the one seri- ousty disturbing element, rendering ab- normally high the cost of manufacturing and restricung the purchasing power of a most the entire population. Kortunatel this comes at a time of exceptional pros: perity, or there would be a general con- Iraction of consumption in other lines Ihere is little interruption because of the labor disputes, but many operations are in- terrupted by the delay in transit of materials, Rallway trelght rates were ad- vanced, and one result will be a loss of Dun & Co.'s tomorrow will deflected o New Urleans, In the iron and steel industry the most significant event of the week was the di cussion regarding the profit sharing pr posal by the leaalng producer. Inadequa supplies of coal are still restricting oper: tions. Contracts for the new year werd made at M a ton, but prompt deliveries often commanded 36 or §/ and at Chicago some sales were reported at $10. Pig jron continues scarce, prices generally aavanc- ing during the past week, and the ex. pected advance of §1 a ton was made in wire produ . Much new business has come forward, especlally in bars and sheets, which ' had been - comparatively quiet, while there is a vigorous demand for structural material to be used In orid work and car shops. Another year of un precedented activity in this industry s con. fdently anticipated. Partially because of the published statistics of supplies, but more on account of London speculation, there was sharp advance in prices of tin and copper, followed by some reaction, due to realizing sales. Footwear is Light. New England producers of footwear are busy on spring business and a few deliv- erles have already been made, although shipments are light in these lines s yet. Exceptional activity in rubber goods has reduced supplies to an unueunily Jow point Some varieties of leather have advanced slightly and tanners of hemlock sole have only limited holdings. Exports of hemlock sole continue beavy. No new features have appeared in the domestic demand for dry goods. The best event as to cottons has been the continied buying for export, which has exceeded ex- pectations largely. The print cloth market has ruled firm, with business restricte¢ by the reserve of sellers, who show no dis- position to make concessions. A: tr, woolen goods the demand for overcoatings for next fall has not come up to expectations, which may be attributed in part to th that the season opened unusually early. Prices are fully maintained at the openiig |level of the season. Fallures for the week numbered 350 in the United States, against 373 last year, and 24 in Canada, compured with 27 a year ago.

Each succeeding number contatns new pictures and new matter on topics of general interest and all prepared in a way that is pe- cullarly The Bee's own. It 18 this steady endeavor to gi the people the very best all the time that has made The Illustrated Bee so popular. Some splendid new features have been planned for the current year, one of which will be found in the next number. OUR GENERATIONS OF GRANTS is the title under which Mr. Edward Rosewater contributes a chapter of personal recollections of members of this distinguished family. It is fllus- trated from family photographs, showing representatives of five gen- erations, as well as twenty-onc mem- bers of the family. WO UNIVERSITY PRESIDENTS is a handsome picture showing Jacob Gould Schurman of Cornell and Rev. M. P. Dowling of Crelghton together. It 1s accompanied by a short biographical sketch of the two men who are so prominently indenti- fled with educationa! affairs UCATIONAL VALUE OF MOTHERS' CONGRESS is a special article on the general topic of the American mother's task in rearing and educat- ing her offspring. It debates the matter In a broad and interesting way, and is worth the reading. ELGIAN MARKET FOR AMERICAN MANUFACTURES is the title of Mr. Frank Q. Carpenter’s weekly let- ter. In it Mr. Carpenter recounts the experience of some well informed business men of Brussels in the way of handling and introducing American goods and wares. Illustrations are from photographs made in Belgium. TURBDY MEN WHO FIGHT THE SEA KINGS gives n vivid description of the life of the modern whaler. Some account of the dangers and s hardehips daily encountered and en- dured by these men, apparently in- credible, in the pursuit of the levia- than, is set forth by the writer. K-SAR-BEN FESTIVAL CHORUS, or- A ganized and being drilled by Thomas J. Kelly, is shown in a splen- daid group photograph, and there are a number of other fine independent pictures. Every department of the paper has been carefully looked after, and not a thing has been slighted or omitted. If you are not now a sub- scriber, you should leave your order with your newsdealer today. THE ILLUSTRATED ) ! z z | | § f § i true, notes something of the lull usual at this perfod of the year, but even here the uniformity I8 broken by advices that sales- men already on the road are receiving good orders for spring and that in compliance with urgent Instructions shipments of spring goods are being forwarded liberally. Among the industrials activity reigns, the only deterrent f ures being the scarcity of cars and of fuel, limiting production of fron and steel or curtailing shipments of lumber and grain. Prices as a whole strength, present levels being the ighest in over two years. Corn and cotton have weakened, but the only apparent result is that of encouraging and expanding export trade, a movement long and anxlously awalted Cotton goods remain firm, and it is a sell er's market for print cloth. The feell of confidence in the cotton and cotton goods trades extends aleo to woolen goods, While raw wool is strong, with supplies on hand generally small. Liberal snows are helping lumbering operations in the northwest and in Maine, Cold weather effects the movement of white pine, while the southern yellow pine movement 1s restricted by the ‘scarcity of cars. A ature is the activity in hard woods, which are in demand at all leading markets. Eastern shce m liberal sample orders lowed by solid orders to the extent ex- pected and shipments are smaller than ast year and la week, but leather is quiet and firm. The scarcity of anthracite ccal I8 a feature of large expense. Efforts to keep prices down to a reasonable level seem to have failed and speculators are re- ported in control of the situation. The fron and steel ma et 1s classed as qulet, but sympto: tivity are numer- cus. Pittsburg reports plg lron scarce and good sales haye been made at nearly top prices, while heavy engagements of steel Dillets, bars and structural materlal are also reported. ( 15 especlally scarce at Chicago. Forelgn importation of iron and steel are heavy. Cleveland reports that so active Is the demar r iron ore that the immensely reduce applies brought down from the lakes last year promise to be well cleaned up by spring In the hardware trade the outlook is c'assed as good.

Mayor Koutsky Again Aunounces Position on Meat Inspector. | | WILLING TO APPOINT UNDER ORDINANCE | It Councll Will Pa | e Win ary Action With- e Bill Needed Take the | | Several days ago Mayor Koutsky stated to members of the press that he was will- ing to appoint a meat inspector just as soon as the city council passed the ordinance. City Attorney Murdock has been instructed | by the council to draft an ordinance for the appointment of a meat defining the dutles of the officlal. So far the ordinance has not been drafted, as Mr, Murdock has been engaged in court and on court revision matters Last night Mayor Koutsky reiterated his former statements and sald that just as soon as the council &ees fit to pass an ordi- nance declaring the necessity for a meat | inspector he will maake an appointment. s far as I am concerned,” sald mayor, “the government inspection stockyards are in good condition. Should 1 be called upon to appoint an inspector I assure the public that I will place a man in the position who whoroughly unders! according to the ordinance passed.” The mayor declines to even Intimate who he will appoint, should the council pass the ordinance needed. The ordinance, when it Is passed, will have to have the ap- proval of the city attorney before it signed by the mayor. After Bank Robbers €ent to the South Omaha police descriptions of the persons supposed to be implicated in the bank robbery of a night or two ago. Chief Briggs was a busy man yesterda: Jast night. He declined to give any details, but said that the officers after the robbers were on a trall and would most likely re- port before long. Some Alterations Wanted. In the amendments to the city charter which City Attorney Murdock will take to Lincoln and submit is the change proposed for lights and water. Figures for years past show that not enough money has been provided for elther of these funds, and the statement of Murdock for an Increase will not be considered as sufficient by another committee which will go down to induce the leglslature to provide the city with plenty of funds for proper fire protection and the supplying of the street lights absolutely needed. Retail Clerks' There was Union, well attended meeting of the Retall Clerks' union at Labor hall on Thursday night. Several new members were initiated. It is expected by the pres- ent members of the union that before long every retail clerk In the city will join the organization. An organizer is to come here some time during the present month for the purpose of securing additional members to the present unlon. Another meeting of the clerks’ union will be held on January 22 at Labor hall. At this meeting there will be an election of officers. Fitle Expresses Thanks. Frank Fitle, temporarily located in Lin- coln in the office of the commiesioner of public lande and buildings, writes The Bee to express his thanks for the acts of kind- ness and the flowers, etc., on the occasion of the death of his daughter, Anna Fitle. To all friends who remembered the de- ceased he wishes to extend his sincere thanks.

Annual Charity Ball At a meeting of the directors of the hos- pital association Lsld yesterdsy afternoon it was decided to hold the annual charity ball at the spaclous dining room at the Ex- change building on the evening of February 9. This annual ball of the association is considered quite & soclal affalr in the an- nals of South Omaha, and & large number of tickets are usually sold. It is expected that this year the sale will be larger than usual, as more interest seems to be taken 1n hospital affairs than heretofore. While plans for a mew bullding are being talked of no definite teps will be taken this win- ter unless & certaln amount of money for a new building can be pledged. Magle City Gossip. A. H.
