II XI Iff WITHOUT HIM BAN JOHNSON'S LEAGUE CAN'T PLAY IN TWIN CITIES - ;■ BURNHAM OFF FOR DETROIT Western Association Is Row Looking Over Other Cities and May Complete Circuit With out the Twins. CHICAGO. Jan. 2.—Nothing was done today regarding the permanent organiza tion of the Western Base Ball associa tion. A temporary organization was formed last week with the understanding that a conference would be held here today to launch the new league. None of the promoters put in an appearance, except , Mr. Burnham, of Detroit, who was appointed temporary president, and Mr. Manning, of Kansas City. The meet ing was postponed until such time as a full attendance of the prospective mag nates can be secured Mr. Burnham re turned to Detroit with President John ' son of the American league, for the pur pose of looking over the situation there . and helping to decide on the advisabili ty of placing a second team In that city. The American league will have the same team there which represented the league last season and if the outlook Is propitious the Western association will also locate a club there. President Johnson, before leaving De troit, said he would call the meeting for the American league before the mid dle of January. The meeting will be hold in Chicago instead of Philadelphia as planned.. . ■• . The Tribune tomorrow will say: The new league struck a snag In George Len non, of St. Paul, and have not yet com pleted plans made necessary by the un expected state of affairs up in the Twin Cities. Without St. Paul the Western association does not want Minneapolis. It is more than likely the Burnham or ganization will arrange a new circuit, leaving out both of the Minnesota cities. Application by Toronto club of th eEast ern league was made, it is said for a franchise in the new league, but this the magnates refuse to confirm. Toronto would not be a desirable addition with out Buffalo to pair it in the schedule and in breaking the jumps. But the Western association cannot plan on Buf falo which at present is a member of the .American league. It will.be necessary ; for the association people to await the action of the American league concern- Ing the dropping of Buffalo cr Indian apolis before deciding on Toronto's ap plication. ..

The captain has thus far suc ceeded in keeping private his plans of appointments, and if he has made any outside of that of private secretary no one but himself seems to be positively certain of it. Among those who are now occupying places of prominence for positions under the incoming administration is J. J. Bas ton, a former Minneapolis man, who ;eeks the grain inspectorship in the Mill City.

Smith was mentioned as a prab able recipient of that portfolio, and so Robbins decided that his prey must be the oil Inspectorship. Smith, It now appears, can not serve, and Is therefore not now an obstacle to Robbins.

It la be lieved that Mr. Olson has been given some encouraging news from Gov. Van Sant. E. E. Parko, of Pipestone, who wants to be assistant superintendent, came to the city yesterday and will greet Capt. Van Sant today. • • • A decidedly sensational twist was taken In the senatorial fight yesterday when one of the most prominent Evans men, a representative from the northern rait of the state, quietly assured a friend that the Evans bcom had received its death knell. His manner of expressing It was: "We are all In now; that's a dead certainty." A noticeable lull In the Evans fight was the sutoject of comment yesterday. Mr. Evans and his managers were in the city throughout the day, and they did not express themselves at all discouragingly in speaking of their chances, but It was generally believed that the Evans stock had experienced a decided slump. A Sixth district Re publican, who is in very close touch with the entire situation, informed a repre sentative of the Globe last night that Mr. Evans was as good as out of the race. The plan of the opposition Is to CBuse a deadlock and then sacrifice Evans i for Tom Lowry. There will be a stam pede for the streel railway magnate and he will make a desperate fight for the toga. Lowry has not yet declared him self a candidate, but that he !s one is earnestly bslieved. Among those who are said to be managing his little craft are Al Ferris, of Brainerd; Senator Buck rran, of Little Falls and several other Sixth district men as well as Minneapolis men. Senator Buckman, asked last night where he stood, said he was not on the Tawney platform. In the mind of the Sixth district man referred to .above, this scheme is regarded as one of the most probable that is now under way and it has commended Itself to many others as being very plausible. The contest promises to become still more complicated by the entrance of Tarns Bixby and Congressman Heatwole, of the Third district, and possibly Con gressman McCleary, of the second. Bix by has wired from Washington to Repre sentative Barteau that he will be a can didate and requests his own (Goodhue) county to stand back of him until the matter Is settled by a caucus of the dis trict. Heatwole has written to members of the legislature from his district, which is also Tarn's district, that he -mill com* back from the national capital and enter EVIDENTLY. the fight if the district will agree to give it 3 support to him. This makes things rather embarrassing: for the peo ple of the Third, as well as renders the whole situation more complex. There has been no caucus of the Third district members and now they wlil wait until Bixby and Heatwole arrive from Wash ington before holding one. One of the leading members of the house from the Third, and a man who is very closely al lied with Tarns Bixby, informed a Globe representative yesterday that in case both these gentlemen declared them selves candidates, subject to the action of the district Heatwole would receive first consideration. The gentleman is perhaps as well qualified to voire the sentiments of the district delegation as any member in it, and Is personally a strong Eixby man, but adheres to the doctrine that Heatwole had first claim on the backing of the district. Bixby will be in St. Paul not earlier than Sat urday and Heatwole about -the same time. Gen. Clapp and Messrs. Tawney and Evans held a short conference yesterday afternoon at the Merchants' hotel, where all three have headquarters, and the time for holding, a caucus was discussed Evans was in favor of an early caucus Tawney said he would leave it to his committee to settle, and Clapp positively refused to agree to any definite time Ine Evans men yesterday drew up a set of resolutions favorable to an early cau cus, but failed to get signatures to it Clapp men are determined that they will not push things and Tawney and his managers are in the same frame of mind Senator ' Sweningson, chairman of the committee in charge of the Tawney in terests, stated yesterday: "Our cause is a new one, and we naturally prefer to go slow with this thing bo that we may at least have as good a chance as the other fellows of getting our forces to gether." These are understood to be Mr. Tawney's sentiments exactly • ♦ * Senator Nelson is now considered as a factor In the senatorial fig-ht. Collector Yon Baumbach yesterday was exhibiting a telegram from him which aroused no little interest. It read "Se Grimshaw be fore you move any further In the sena torial matter." Grimshaw is United States marshal, who reappointment de pends much on the grood offices of Senator Nelson. Grimshaw la also an active Evans man. Congressman Stevenson left last night for Washington. Fourth district Republican and Demo crat house members held a social confer ence at the Merchants* last night. No business entered into the meeting. • • • The Eighth ward Republicans met at Lincoln club last nlgjht and renewed their* allegiance to M. P. Hallowell, who was turned down by Sheriff-elect Justus for a position under him. The ward recom mended Hallowell for the first appoint ment by Justus, but th* latter passed over the indorsement. The People's party city and county committees will hold an open meeting Monday evening at 8 o'clock in room eighty-three, Court block, for the purpose of adopting resolutions deploring the death of Hon. Ignatius Donnelly. Congressman McCleary is still at the Windsor and will probably be thera for some time yet, taking a good view of the contest. The representative from the Second district stated to the Globe re porter yesterday: "No, I am not a candidate for the sen atorship. My committee waited upon me at first, before they took any action whatever and asked m© if I would en ter the race. I told them I would not" Mr. McCleary was asked if that was his final decision, but did not say that It was. His answer left room for another one to be formed. CABTORIA.

' HISTORIC SPOTS IN THE WET. Some Features oi the Recent Over flow of the Tiber in Hume. Baltimore Sim. ROME, Dec. 2.—Today half the popula tion of Rome crowds Tiber's banks tc gaze at the river mighty in flood. The almost constant rains of the month of .November have produced inundations throughout the country, and the Tiber has overflowed Its banks in many parts, bringing about wreck and ruin to dwell ers in the lowlands through which it Hows. The people of Rome are deeply Inter ested in the rise of the river. Many of them who dwell in the parts of the oity which are lower in level, ar.d which are the first to be flooded, have had to leave their dwellings, which are now unap proachable except by boats. Those who dwell in the more elevated quarters have taken occasion of the first bright and sunshiny weather for some time past to visit the places where the flood is most conspicuous. The Roman Forum is one of the first places to be flooded. The extraordinary inundations of today has rendered it a great lake In which the ruined buildings rise in the midst of the yellow water like the visionary city of a mirage. An cient history repeats itself in the Forum today. It is Horace who In his ode to Caesar, describing the Inundation of the year 8 B. C, writes: We have seen the tawny Tiber, with waves. Wrenched violent back from vents in Tuscan seas, March on to Muma's hall and Vesta's shrine, Menacing downfall. The residence of Numa, the Regla, ad- Joined the Temple of Vesta in the Forum, not far from the base of the Palatine. Today the gentle waves of Tiber lap the formless foundations of Vesta's shrine and .ie close to the marble remnants of the Regia. From the Temple of Romulus, the son of Maxentius, to the base of the arch of Septimius Severus, and from the Basili ca Julia to the other side of the Forum, there If nothing but yellow water visible, amid which fragments of ancient build ings rear their heads and are reflected in the still, mirrorlike surface of the risen Tiber. The photographer finds a feast here to day. All kinds of machines, from trie heavy large sized article on its tripod to the pocket kodak, are directed from many points on the flooded Forum, and what might be called water colored views of this classical spot will be shown in many a distant land. At St. George in Velabro, beneath the west side of the Palatine, where the four-sided arch of Janus Quadrlfrons and the arch of silversmiths, raised in honor of Septimus Severus, stand, the river has risen. The church, which was once the titular church of Cardinal Newman, was flooded to about eight feet in height from the floor. An unapproachable gas lamp lighted before the river rose in the night is burning in the bright sun light. The temple of Hercules, by the Tiber's brink, with Its circular portico of nine teen fluted marble colums, stands in the mid3t of a large and deep lake. The chif-ch of Santa Maria, In Cosmedin, re cently restored with great care and cost to its antique state of the seventh cen tury, it filled with water eight feet deep. St. Paul's, that grand church of bright, new marbles that are a delight to every one who looks upon them, In unapproach able, as tho road leading to it is deep under water. As regards inundations, writes Lan ciana, the Tiber ranks among- the proud est rivers in the world. That of Decem ber, ISTO, will never fade from the mem ory of the living generation, and, he continues, "I fear that this impressive and picturesque spectacle will never again be seen, since civilization has taken up the matter and by means of lofty embankments, of locks and gates, will succeed, I am sure, In keeping the river confined hereafter within its two parallel walls." . Undoubtedly the flood of the December of 1900 would present a much greater resemblance to that of the December of IS7O were it not for the Tiber embank ment. The river bed is widened and offers a more spacious flow to the water It Is only in the lower parts of the city where the water floods, rising through the drains. The Pantheon is unapproachable from the front by the water that surrounds it and occupies its floor; but the Pan theon is in one of the lowest districts in Rome. The height above its ordinary level which the Tiber has reached today can be no less than twenty feet. A large portion of the Campagna surrounding Rome is under water. Some accidents have, of course, occurred, but the serv ice of assistance Is so well managed that these are reduced to a minimum. The wine cellars that are excavated If (^kMBL «i -| ll 111 I | ,Ij' I!

The Tiber in Its apparent fury flows with a fearful rapidty and with whirlpools. All the hollows at the foot of the green hills form so many lakes and ponds, and on the river are seen trees and blocks of wood floating and plunging and turning over like creaturej in pain.

Therefore, It Is within the bounds of probability that the outcome of the ne gotiations under this subhead of the agreement touching commercial arrange ments, will be the framing of som thing: like a general convention which may be signed collectively or singly by the pow ers, but which will insure uniform treat ment to all. The Chinese government's gunrantee of its ability to perform acts called for in the agreement is now expected to be fol lowed by the prompt arrest and punish ment of the Boxer leaders and sym pathizers wl;o wore named In the decree of Sept. 25, as follows: Prince Chwan, Prince Yih, secondary, Princes Ts.ii Lien and Tsal Ying, Prince Tuan, Duke Tsail an. and the president of the censorship.

The honey of this bee is not great In quantity, is dark colored, very liquid, and Is said not to crystallze. Another peculiarity of the honey if that it has a decidedly sour, or tart, taste, and on thin ac count it Is much .sought after as .beins a greater delicacy than the sweet honey of the tame bee. The reason these bees are* small producers is that, as they are stingiest, they are constantly robbed by the larger varieties, the tame bee being one of the robbers.
