GOULD AND YOAKUM SIGN TRACKAGE AGREEMENT. rrUco Rrllcved of Building; 323 3Illen of Line and Secures Ac cess to Xew Orlenn. republic special. New York. May 13. After nearly a year of negotiation, George J. Gould, en behalf of the St. Louis and Iron Mountain Rail way and the Texas and Pacific Railway, and B. P. Yoakum, on behalf of the Rock Island-Frisco system, have signed a con tract by which the Rock Island-Frisco system will gain their much coveted, access to New Orleans by trackage over the Gould system and the Illinois Central. Use of tho low grade Gould line will be granted to the Rock Island-Frisco system from a point opnoslte Memphis to a point opposite Baton Rouge. Bv this contract the Frisco will be relieved from building about 32S miles of road through territory already plentifully supplied with railroads at a time not at all propitious for railroad construction. From Baton Rouge to New Orleans, about 123 miles, the Illinois Central will be used under a similar agree ment to that mada with the Gould lines. At New Orleans the Frisco and the South ern Railway will JoInUy occupy new ter minals, which will cost aonroxlmatelr JH.- Rock Island-Frisco trains will begin running into New Orleans by the Missis sippi Klver route on January 1. 1S. The contract is to run for ninety-nine years, and while It la made directly with tho St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad, the Rock Island w 111 have a beneficial Interest in the arrangement. All expense of build ing the low-grade line will be defrayed by the Gould roads, and all title to the new line will rest with the Gould proper ties. The Rock island-Frisco system will pay rental although enjoying equal privileges with the Gould lines so far as through traffic Is concerned. Although It has not yet been definitely decided, there are reasons to believe that the trackage con tract made by the Frisco with the Mobile and Ohio and the New Orleans and North eastern last year, bv which the Frisco ob tained the privilege of using their tracks from Tupelo to New Orleans will not be rescinded, although the contract is ter minable at the option of either party. It Is probable that the Frisco's business from the Birmingham district will bo routed by the southern route. m.KCTIUC IUILM'AY TCSTS. President Francis Appoints Commit tee In Charire of Kxprrlments.

The Fronton proper Is a rectangle 210 feet long and 36 feet wide, and ls open on the side next the spectators. The players utilize about one third the space of the whole building. The spectators are seated on the west two thirds of the building and they watch the players strike the ball against the south wall. The north wall ls the "Rebote" (Re bound), and the east wall might be consid ered the guide line In the development of the game. The walls are painted black. Around the south wall ls a red strip of steel Inclosing a space of 23 feet 3 Inches square. Tho ball must be played Inside of that space. On th" east wall, which fronts the spectators, aro 17 equal spaces divided by white lines. At the fourth, the fault line, and seventh, the pass line, division lines are drawn transversely across the ce ment floor, which Is used by the players. These division lines mark the limits within which the ball, after being served against the first wall, at the beginning of any play, must strike the floor in order to be good. The came Is played with a ball some what like the American baseball, and a basket of peculiar construction called a "cesta." It looks like a long, narrow, curved scoop, and Is fastened to the play er's hand by a leather glove, and tied se curely by a leather thong at the wrist.
