BASE BALL IN WINTER TIME apa Bill Rourke Talks About Next Beasen's Prospects. ESTERN LEAGUE IN SPLENDID SHAPE 111 Start with Eight Clabs Well Ore ganized and Backed and Ought to Prosper as Never Betore, Manager W. A. Rourke of the Omaha base 11 team was caught in a loquacious mood jast week and told many f concerning | his club and his league, and collaterally gave his opinions regarding the base ball situation in the major leagues “The Western league will start the/com- ing season in far better condition than it aid the last,” said Mr. Rourke. “As it was, we wound up very successtully in 1902, but our prospects to begin on then were about a8 bright as mud when compared to those of this season “In every department, players, finances and clubs, we were handicapped last year Improvements for locating new clubs and new grounds cost us $20,000 easy ow we own all that, so there's one big handicap removed. Then the month of March found three of our clubs, Kansas City, Milwaukee and Peorla, without any players to speak of. This year almost every club of the eight has its list made up entire and not / ono has less than eight men planted. One of our losing clubs will be lifted frox that side to the paying column this year Peoria lost money last season. This year & stock company has been organized over there with $15,000 capital and is now in the best of shape, with a big list of players signed. That will help a lot And there is every reascn to belleve that Milwaukee | will pay good money this time. “Starting against the heavy odds we had to encounter, the Western league closed | last season with $10,000 in the treasury | We are well satisfied with that record Milwaukee, Kansas City and Peoria lost money. St. Joseph, Colorado Springs and Des Mones made a little each. Omaha and Denver made blg mone “We have the annual league meeting at Kansas City next Tuesda: continued the magnate. “We will elect officers, including four directors and a man for the combined station of president, secretary and treas- urer. M. H. Sexton will doubtless be named to succeed himself to the latter office. Mr. Sexton’s withdrawal from any candidacy for the presidency of the Three-1 league {s understood to be on this condition. He can well afford to give all his time to the Western league, as he will recelve about $3,000 and expenses for the year. “The board of directors as it now stands will have a meeting Tuesday morning. It will wind up all old business and pre- pare its report for the league meeting. That will come in the afternoon. There may be a few changes made in the con- stitution, but they will be minor ones. As rogards the playing season, that will be about as last year. There will be & schedule of 140 games, to commence about April 23 and continue five months. “Our eight clubs are all lined up mow in good shape. At Kansas City Kid Nichols will again be in charge. He has most of his old men back. Delehanty will probably be playlng manager for Denver. Ho has some new men and a good share of the former players. Bill Everitt will handle Colorado Springs again. He has a great many new ones. Joe Quinn will re- main at Des Moines and has picked up quite a line of new players. At Peoria Big Bill Wilson has six new men and some of the old ones. Hugh Dufty has twelve players signed at Milwaukee now and there are many old names among the list. There isn’t a manager picked for St. Joseph, but Van Brunt {s pushing things there and has elght men signed. 1 have eight of my old men back and nine more new ones for Omaha.” “My team personnel has been varlously published and predicted, but I want to give it out now just as it stands. Beginning be- hind the bat there is Johnny Gonding, who has been on the coast for the winter, but is pow in Kansas City. Then there is Jack Thomas, who will be second catcher and | utility man. He is in St. Louis now. Joe | 1yn cannot hold out very well though, and knock the whole thing in the | all as a professional. 1 think he will play In addition 1 have Mike Weldy of last year's Superfor, Neb., team, who is now in Leav- enworth.

I think that treaty as arranged will rtainly be ratified by the ) at its meeting next Monday. The four west- ern clubs will compel the eastern ones that are holding back to ratify. Boston and Philadelphia have alres to this 1t they do, head, I believe the four western clubs of the league will go In with the American and make it a ten-club league. Cincinnati and Pittsburg would be the two new clubs, as those in Chicago and St. Louis would be consolidated.” great roar has come up from Boston, York, Brooklyn and Philadelphia National league magnates over the settlement, or, rather, the peace terms adopted at Cincin- natl. Soden and Billings want the Amer- fean driven out of Boston; Colonel John L Rogers wants the American driven out of Philadelphia, and all his players returned; Andy Freedman and John T. Brush want the American prohibited from entering New York, and also want “Big Ed” Delchanty and one or two others who had declded to jump American contracts to play with Muggsy McGraw's collection during the summer. And of course Ebbetts is willing to help his assoclates get what they want. To & man thus far out west it looks as if the kicking magnates will have to be satis- fled with what they have got. And they are lucky to get even that. While the Cin- cinnati meeting resulted In an all-around victory for the Johnsonites, it is also a vic- tory for base ball. Wherever the American has established itself it is frmly en- trenched, with the possible exception of St Loufs. In Boston and Philadelphia the National was driven to the wall last season and no signs of recuperation have appeared in efther city. Long before the last season was ended the invasion of New York was decided on and at no time has there been any reason to belleve that the American had changed its plans. Therefore the chorus of objection that goes up from the disgruntled -eastern magnates is without effect. On the other hand, the peace pact will operate to establish stability and con~ fidence for the business end of the game, just what these men are most In need of. Respect for contracts is more vital to the purse of the magnate than respect for ters ritory; but even this latter is provided for by agreement that there shall be no further changes without due notification and con- sent. As the clrcuits are now made up, Chicago, Boston, New York, Philadelphia and St. Louls will each have two clubs. Cincinnatl, Brooklyn and Pittsburg will be single in the National, and Cleveland, De« trolt and Washington in the American. This arrangement is apparently etronger than the ten or twelve-club circults proposed by the amalgamators. It 1s not at all difficult to belleve that the Cincinnati compact will eventually be ac- cepted by the rebellious easterners, for the present it seems the only way of ending the Wright will be on first base again.

Joe Dolan is in town and will play short. Ed Hickey will be on third and will come here from Indianapolls. I intend to sign one promising young player as a utility In- fielder. 1 have my eye on the man now, but haven't got him yet. “In the outfleld there will be Frank Gen- Ins, now in St. Louls, and Robert Carter, who is In Reedsville, N.

Pittsburg is lying at the be entered another season. But the matter of territory is of secondary importance, the status of the players coming first. When the rald was first begun the National ranks were depleted of stars, and although there has boen some retallation by the older league the American has suffered little in comparison to the injury It has inflicted.

If no other good could come out of the agreement, this one feature is of sufficlent importance to render the Cinein- natl conference most memorable in base ball history. As for the stories that the National loague will be permanently disrupted, little credence should be given them.

Basket ball has had & boom at the Uni- versity of Nebraska this week. What with the game against the Haskell Indian team in the armory last night, and the daily practice that has led up to the event, this | feature of the college athletics has been all in all with the scarlet and cream co- horts since Monday. Having put down the redskine on the base ball field and foot ball gridiron, alike, it was the cager hope of the Nebraskans to complete the series with a victory at the basket game. But the team was handi- capped by a loss of 0ld men and entire new training had to be begun this season. Dr, Clapp has been an able coach fit 'the garhd and his well-developed trick plays are ac- countable for the showing made by his team. The hope of the men at Lincoln lay in the team work. Hewitt, the cap- tain, is a glant and a yood man at center. He is fast and covers the floor well. El- lott, as forward at Cortelyou's old place, bas made good and is fully equal to his famous predecessor. He is the best goal thrower on the team. Ferguson, the other forward, is very tall ‘and wiry and his helght helps him in many a tight pinch. Hiltner, manager of the team, plays at guard and covers his man In great shape, while Hoar, the other guard, is developing well for a new man. Benedict, the famous foot ball kicker, shifts from guard to cen- ter and goes in with his gridiron spirit. In the foot ball world the latest news is that Manager Buckner has scheduled a game with Knox college to be played at Lincoln on November 7. This is one of the strongest teams that the Cornhuskers met last season on home grounds, being able to win only by seven polnts. The Minnesota game s still unsettled. Negotiations are pending, but there is no | assurance that Nebraska will be given a | northeners have put the Cornhuskers on the list of “heavies” and will no longer play them as a practice game during the fore part of the season. They furthermore refuse to take on the Nebraskans within a week of any other heavy game and| there's the rub in arranging the date. Manager Buckner, who was elected to the position ‘only two weeks ago, is now life. He did not seek the place and hesi- tated about accepting it when the faculty members of the athletic board hunted him up and made the offer. Others were candi- dates, but Buckner was known to have abllity and he is doubtless a good selection for the place. In track athleties there will likely be something doing early.
