POOLED THEIR ISSUES NATIONAL UM«VS Wll AMERICAN ASSOCIATION GET TO GETHER NEW CLUBS ARE LOCATED What (he < UHtofTn Received fur tiet tlnjc Out of the I.cbriic —lMnn-i i'(»r A|i|>rou4-lilii|i Sfiisoii Are Perfected. CHICAGO, March 12.-The American Association of Baseball Clubs, backed by the National league, will tarnish baseball the coming season in the following cities: Baltimore, Washington, i,buisvllle, Cleve land, Chicago, St. Louis, New York and Philadelj>hla. The announcement was made today by James Hart, president of the Chicago club. Mr. Hart returned today from th& National league meeting of baseball mag nates which was recently concluded In New York after secret sessions. In Baltimore, Washing-ton. Louisville and Cleveland, the grounds made tenant less by the elimination of these cities from the national league circuit will be umhl. In the remaining cities, the Na tional league grounds will be used, as a schedule will be arranged whereby th« dates of the two organizations will not conflict. "The new association," said Mr. Hart today, consenting far the first time to be interviewed concerning the meeting, "13 a business necessity. The league has cut down its circuit and Is morally bound to look out for the players win: were mad? so much excess baggage by the reduc tion. The arrangement a.s made, how ever, will continue only until ownerships Independent of the major league, but not inimical to Its Interests, can be an chored." Mr. Hart also ga\e out today the real story of how the reduction of the na tional league circuit was accomplished. Baltimore, Washington, Cleveland and Louisville, Mr. Hart explained, tendered their resignations from the league, These were placed on file, but not ac cepted. The twelve-club circuit, there fore, could be resumed at any time be fore l'.X)2, when the ten-year agreement expires. BALM FOR CASTOFFS. In consideration o* $10,000 Louisville resigned, leased Its grounds to the league for four years and agreed not to be scheduled for two years. Cleveland got $10,000 for like concess- Blorts, save that the club keeps the im provements on Its own grounds. If these Improvements are disposed of for teas than $15,0W, the difference is to be paid by the league. Cleveland also keeps all Its own players, to dispose of to the best advantage by the local management. In addition to the $10,000 which Is to be paid Baltimore for its elimination from the league the league agreed to purchase the ground Improvements for $20,000. Bal timore keeps all of its players, who were transferred to Brooklyn. Washington took $10,000 as the price of being wiped off the map, but as the Wagners have no place to transfer to — like Baltimore to Brooklyn—the league bought the players and the improve ments on the grounds for $29,000. The clubs will be taxed 5 per cent of their gross receipts to liquidate the debt at the rate of $1,000 each as rapidly as possible. The rate of payment, there fore, will depend on the receipts. AMERICAN LEAGUE WILLING. When President Johnson, of the Ameri can league, was told of the plan of the National.league to establish a second or ganization, including' a second club In this city, he said: "All right, let them go ahead. I tulnk It is a Mutt to scare us out. Whether ot not it is, we are going to come intr. Chicago. I believe the public will sup port us In an honest effort to furnish clean baseball. We seek no w;ir with the National league and only want an op portunity to exert our rights. If the Na tional league starts a reserve organiza tion it will only represent so much loss loss entailed in an effort to keep anothci league from getting established. I don'i. believe the public will sympathize wltn that sort of a thing. On the contrary, 1 believe we will get the sympathy of ttte public If .1 tight is forced upon us. "It s^ems to me, moreover, that the < Chicago club might better be spending Its money toward strengthening that ball club it has than in lighting other leagues which do not seek to injure it."

Such confidence is now felt in the mili tary operations that Interest rather cen ters in the political outlook. The Daily News quotes Whitelaw Reid as saying In a private letter. "I give you hearty congratulations on the changed aspect of the war. It is an immense relief to us all, as well as to you." "This view," says the Dally News, "is welcome as expressing with an unusual measure of authority, enlightened public feeling In the United States." Except in the case of Germany the replies of the powers to the Boer appeals for intervention are not yet known pub licly here, but it is quite certain that !

I suggest that, those who can not refrain from wearing the shamrock should dip it Into the ink until the dis honor Is wiped out by the final triumph of the Boers, or in some other way."

TOPEKA, Kan., March 12.-"Th 0 main purpose of the paper will be to influence Its. readers to seek first the kingdom of God." The Rev. Charles M. Sheldon, who to day assumed editorial and business con trol of the Dally Capital, which he will retain one week, will make this an nouncement in hi* editorial leader, out lining his policy, tomorrow morning. Tha Capital during this time will be a "news- Paper," the word "news" being defined by Mr. Sheldon as anything in the way of current events that the public ought to know for it a moral and spiritual develop ment. The paper will be absolutely non partisan, and partisan political news will be given small notice. All editorial and important local mat ters will be signed by the writer* There will be no Sunday paper, but instead, a Saturday evening paper, suitable for Sun day reading. "May God bless the use of this paper to the glory of Ills kingdom on earth - says Rev. Sheldon in concluding his let ter. The first item on the first page tomor row will be a prayer written by Bishop John A. Vincent, of the Methodist-Epis copal church. It is as follows: "A morning prayer and resolution- 'I will try this day to live a simple, sin cere serene life; repelling every thought of discontent, self-seeking anxiety; cul tivating magnanimity, self-control and the habit of silence; practicing economy cheerfulness and helpfulness. " 'And as I cannot in my own strength do this, or even with a hope of success attempt it. I look to Thee. Oh Lord, my father In Jesus Christ, my savior, and ask for the gift of the holy spirit ' " INSTRUCTING THE STAFF. * R -£ dlt.°r Sheldon went to the office at I 8.30 o clock this morning, and will be on duty until the paper goes to press at 3 o clock tomorrow. At 10 o'clock he had a conference with the correspondents for Eastern papers, and promised to meet them each evening at 7:30 o'clock and give out certain information concerning his work At 11 o'clock he met the local force of the paper and gave them the as signments for the day. A page whl be devoted to local news and the leading features for tomorrow I will be reports of a temperance revival and an anti-cigarette meeting. Mr Shel ; don instructed the police reiK>rter that in case of a murder or oiher crime to write a t»are statement of the facts. If he had the space to spare, instead of filling I it up with the usual details, he would go j into a discussion of the cause leading up ! to the crime. j During the conference the sporting cdi , tor remarked that there would be a bowl j ing contest at the Y. M. C. A. rooms to j night. "I think," said Mr. Sheldon, "that that is good, clean sport. You may print it." The dramatic editor asked for instruc tions about theaters. I "We shall not want anything of that kind," remarked Mr. Sheldon. ARRANGEMENT OF NEWS. One page has been reserved for tele graph news, which ordinarily occupies •j about three times that space. The asso j dated Press is necessarily bein^ "blue I penciled" with a vengeance. The market reports will be cut from j four columns to one. All quotations on stocks and bonds, giving options and : other matter involving transactions In j futures, have been consigned to the waste j basket, and only the actual cash price of j grain, produce, etc., will be quoted. A notable feature of the paper will be the method of handling advertisements. They will be banished from the news I and editorial pages and will be bunched in J places reserved for them. The censor ship here is even more rigorous than in the news columns, and a large quantity of this class of matter has already been cut out, Including all relating to patent medicines. The familiar corset adver tisements of the magazines, accompanied by cuts, have sought in vain for space. No retail advertisements from Kansas City or other out-of-town tradesmen will be accepted, Mr. Sheldon holding that 1 this would be an Injustice to home mer chants. AMERICANS ATTACKED.

In two weeks I took about twenty Tabules and the result was marvelous. I had eaten my meals only as a matter of form and then so very little that for awhile I was almost starved. There had been no desire to eat, I did not enjoy the food and I could not sleep Between loss of sleep and lack of food, I was not fit for a canine's society.
