THE ARGUMENT
IS CONCLUDEP
Judge Adams Has Wabash In
junction Suit Under Ad
visement.
IBy Assoclated Prc.s.)
ST.- LOUIS, MO., March _0?Argu
monts ln the Wabash injunotlon sult wore
concluded this aftornoon, and the caso
was takon' under' advlse'ment by Judge
Adams. Ho gavo no lntimatlon of how
much tim'o ho mlght reciulro to prepare
hls oplnlon, but tho attorneys doclarod
after the adjournment of court that they
would look for a decision ln about a
woek or ten days.
Judgo Priost, who mado tho flnal argu?
ment for the company, alluded to tho
reported statement of ,T. It. Courtney,
of tho grSovunce committee, that the
men would arbltrate, but would not lot
tho railroad select any of tho arbltrntors.
Judge Priost declared that tho railway
company had been willing to arbltrate.
Grand Master Hanriahan, of the; Fire?
men's Unlon, who wus seatcd bosido
'F. N. Judson, chlof counsel for the de
fendants, leanod qulckly forward and
spoko a fow words to the attornoy, who
at onco intorrupted Judge Prlest's argu?
ment.
"Aro you willing to settle thls, thing
ln that manner?" Mr. Judson asked.
"I am hero to answer tho argument
mado by tho gontlemun," sald Judge
Prlest, "J have no authorlty to speak,
eithor -for Mr. Pamsoy or tho Wabash
road upon such a quostion."
Instantly Mr Judson was upon hls feet,
saylng:' "I wlsh to say, spenklng both
for the tralnmon and the flrernen, tliat we
aro willing to accopt nrbitrntion of a trl
bunal provlded for undor tho acts of
Congross."
"Tlio sentlomtm's nftcrthought ls bot?
ter thnn hls forothought," rctorted Judge
Pricst, and he rosumod liis argument,
In summlng up the evid-iice, Mr. Jud?
son declared thut tho sole jurisdlctlon
possossod by tho court carno through vlo
iatlons of tbo Interstato commerce law.
These vlolatloiis must bo Illegal Iu tho
means used to nttaln nn end, ,or illogul
in tho onds sought, and thoro had boen
nothlng shown, ho declared, to Indicule
thnt olther the ond sought or tho moans
used to nttaln it woro agalnst tho lavvi
thereforo tho entlro case fell to the
ground, and he therefore prayod tho dls
solutlon of the Injunctlon,
Judgo Prlest's argument was dovotod
to a summary of the evidence, Ho
clalmed tliat thoro was suoh a proof of
a oonspiraoy as to Justlfy Judgo Adams
in tho oontinuanca of the injunotion,

AMATEURS
DEFEATED
Phillies Won by the Score of
Twenty-two to Two.
LADS ARE OUTCLASSED
They Managed, However, to Make the
Contest an Interesting One for
the Considerable Crowd
on Hand.
Amld tho luisky huz.as from the "fans'.'
tlio base-ball season for the year wns
ttshered ln at Broad Street Park yester?
day afternoon, whon tho team from Rich?
mond Collego went down bofore the stal
wart ageiegation of tho Phlladelphia Na?
tional League players. Tlhe score was 23
to 2.
It wouid bo an untruth to say that tho
gamo was intensely excltlng, but lt cor
talnly was luiorestlng, ancl tho tliousaad
or moru vlsltors to tho park loft the
ground woll satisfied with tho exhibition
they had seen, especlally with the form
shown by tho "pvos.'
Kvon boforo tho game was under way
thore woro fow who ontertalned any hopes
far the lads, for lt was-Xully roallzed tlhat
a bunch of youngsters, despite thelr
Ictigthy practlco, wouid havo llttlo chance
with ;i crowd of paid atlilotes, tho major?
lty of whom have tor years oarned thelr
llvelihood by thelr abllity to do stunts
on a base-ball diamond.
But tho contest was not featuroless, and
tlme and agaln tho l'ans gavo vent to thelr
feeling of approval by a series of cheers
that shook tho root' of tho grundstand.
It was a collogo bunch, and they wero
in hopes that the lads wouid. mako
better showlng than thoy dld. It was not\
to lack of encouragoment that tho boys
owo thelr defeat, for they had pleuty.
They could not swat tho ball at tho right
tlmo or to tho proper placo. They lucked
gcnoralslilp aud good Judgment, at tlmes
being qulto orratlc ln thelr performances.
Tho gamo opened with Ricihmond at tho
hat. Staples was up and led olf with a
hlt. He wns advanced by a sacrlflco and
scored on another clean slnglo, That wns
about all. The flrst man up for Phlla?
delphia swatted for a homo run, maklng
a clrcult of tho bases.
Kelster, tho star right Uolder for the
Phillies, and Wolverton and Ilulswlth, and
ln fact the wholo team, distinguished
themselves, not maklng an error and bat
tlng ln old-tlrno form.
Tho story can be liottor understood by
reudlng tlhe dotalled sooroi
