ARE LIKELY RECRUITS.

EIGHTEEN MEN HAVE REPORTED ( TO JESSUP AND OTHERS ARE ! EXPECTED TO ARRIVE TODAYALL IN GOOD CONDITION. while the seni-chilly winds whistled through their last season's uniforms, eighteen husky candidates for the Richmond I. O. league, team frisked about Athletic park, chasing the festive Spalding. JThls afternoon it 1a probable that -Capt. Fleming will line his colt team h) against Boss Jessup's veterans. This game will decide the championship of the iceberg circuit. I The husky athletes referred to above include Outfielders Witherow, Wiltermood and Shinn; Inflelders Parker, Hanna, Burns, Hedjuk, Fiant, Bambraugh and Minzler; Pitchers, Aresmith, Brown, Conner and Fleming; Catchers, Jessup, Fisher, I,indsey and Clark. One of the likely looking recruits who reported late yesterday afternoon Js Fisher. Iast season he was with the Ft. Leavenworth team and made a splendid record. Besides being a good catcher, he is a fast outfielder. Aresmith and Witherow, the Terre Haute recruits, pulled in yesterday afternoon and they appear to be in excellent condition. Both men come highly touted. Brown, who was with Kokomo last eason, also appears to be in excellent shape. N The fight for shortstop position appears to be an interesting one. For this Job, Fiant, Minzler, Hedjuk and Hanna are friendly rivals. All of them are fast men and it will be hard work for Manager Jessup to make his choice. Today some pitchers and two or three outfielders are expected to report. Saturday the locals will line up against the Earlham college team Bud all the candidates will be given a 'chance to show off their accomplishiments. LACKEY SALE A TRADE BAROMETER High Prices Paid Show Condition Is Improving. I The recent sale of horses held at the Lackay barns in Cambridge City lis pointed to by The American Sportsman of Cleveland, as an indication of I the returning prosperity of the counItry. The fact that the price of horses ! did not show any material decrease, ibut on the other hand an average of t$2 higher, is accepted by the Sportsman as indication that the financial I condition of the country is improving. NEW PARIS MAY NOT HAVE TEAM Prospects for Base Ball Are Not Flattering. New Paris, O., April 3. Prospects for a good baseball team to represent this place are not overly flattering. A Tiumber ot tne raemtiers or last year s team have left town and their absence lias left vacancies that will be hard to fill. Fair sport was furnished last year after the ill feelings that were : created over the Sunday playing quesi tlon had been soothed. FIREMEN ARE NOW NO. 1 HOSE HOQSE (Continued From Page One.) go to the fire. This morninig when. Yw firemen shouted through a keylole as Miller was loudly beating on .- he door for admittance, "Don't come in here. We've all got the smallpox." To say that Mr. Miller made his presence scarce in that vicinity in a remarkably short period of time, is ) making a mild statement. This i morning when the alarm bells sound's ed, calling the horses from their stalls . I to exercise, the intelligent animals j J looked inquiringly at their human i j Quarantine companions, when the big ; doors failed to fly open. "Nothing doin. boys," Driver Carter remarked to them. "We can't mingle In public un- j til we have all been vaccinated." Then ! the big fellows reluctantly walked ! back to their stalls. GOES TO CALIFORNIA. Dr. A.

Sporting World der up yesterday and nearly succeeded in defeating the world's champions, the Chicago Cubs. The contest resulted in a draw, 5 to 5. The Xew York Americans defeated the Atlanta team yesterday by a score of 5 to 4. The Yankees batted in three runs in the ninth. Joss and Rhoades were too much for Xew Orleans yesterday and Cleveland took the contest in a common canter, 7 to 0. Jessup and his warriors had a pleasant cross country hike yesterday. They past through Westville, Cedar Springs, Toledo, O., Chicago and returned home via Memphis, Tenn. The above described route is not exactly accurate but judging from the appear ances of the colts this morning, it must be-nearly accurate. "Walter Clarkson, the former Harvard star and now with Cleveland will be shipped to Toledo. He will greatly strengthen Armour's pitching staff. Despite the published denial of the Palladium's story that N. Fleming batted .023 last year but has purchased six bats and is now camping on N. Lajoie's trail, we again repeat that our dope is accurate. Our statement is confirmed by Mr. Fleming. Messrs. Hedjuk and Fleming, who formed the rear guard in the hike yesterday, are suffering acutely from spavines. Parker was around town renewing acquaintances last night, All the fans told him that they were glad to see him and they meant what they said. Parker told them he was glad to be here and he meant what he said. Xext Monday the Van Wert team j practice.

BOTH TRACTION AND LIGHT, HEAT AND POWER MAY BRING PRESSURE TO BEAR ON COUNCIL FOR ACTION ON ITS PART. The board of public works is still waiting on the Richmond Light, Heat j and Power company to state what, action it intends to take in regards to complying with the Main street pole ordinance. This morninig Manager Lane of the Light, Heat and Power company was asked what action his company would take. He replied that whatever the city would do the company would also do. "We are preparing our plans and on their completion- they will be submitted to the board." Mr. lane stated. What these plans were he refused to state. , On being informed that the city would not comply with the ordinance, on the grounds that a city could not legislate against itsHf. and that the Main street wires of the city would not be placed in a Main street conduit, but would be placed overhead, probably on Xorth A street, Mr. Lane said that if the ordinance did not effect the city the same as it did the public service corporations it was, in- his opinion, invalid. It is probable that pressure will be brought to bear on council to recon sider the ordinance. The Light, Heat and Power company and the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Kastern Traction company insist that council in enacting the Main street pole ordinance did so under the impression that the city would comply with the ordinance. These corporations state that it would be unjust to force them underground if the city had the privilege of placing its Main street wires overhead on other streets. The board of public works will probably permit the Light, Heat & Power company to place its Main street wires overhead on other streets. The question is whether this company will agree to this arrangement. It is possible that the company will insist in placing its Main street wires in conduits and also insist that the city take the same action. FREED FROM HUSBAND Mrs. David Herbert Granted a Divorce From Drunken Husband. HIS CONVERSION FAILED. After many years, the domestic troubles occasioned Bridget Herbert by her husband, David, were ended in the divorce court this morning when the woman was given a judgment and the custody of the minor children. Herbert has been a notorious drunloard and has served a large portion of his time in jail. He was given frequent opportunities by the courts to straighten up and behave himself, but refused to reform. At times be was abusive of his wife and familv. On one occasion, while serving time in I the county jail, Herbert professed conversion and became a religious l fanatic. He insisted on preaching to the other prisoners until the sheriff was called upon to interfere. COUNTY TREASURER WON HIS SUIT Defunct Concern Will Have to Pay Taxes. In the Wayne circuit court this morning judgment was given in favor of the plaintiff in the case of B. B. Myrick, Jr., treasurer of Wayne county, vs. the Richmond Hat Manufacturing company.

0L0 FIGHTING FIVE TO PLAY AGAIN (Continued From Page One.) Stars. These two quintettes will lineup as follows: Richmond All-Stars Pone First Rush Higins Cunningham Sr.. Sec. Rush Hart Cunningham, Jr. Mansfield Cen'er Jean Gardner Doherty Half Pack Cameron Jessup Goal Sutton The Elks estimate that it w-ill cost $2,500 to pull off this series of games. The expenses include the cost of transportation in bringing the players here and returning them to their Eastern homes, the rent of the coli seum, advertising and the board of the players while in the city. In a day or two one of the members of the lodge will go east and will submit to the players ironclad contracts, which will provide that while they are in the west their services are only at the disposal of the local lodge of Elks. After the series of games have been played here it is probable that the Elks will send the two teams to other rifips in lbf sfnfo whore nolo is nonular. The work of organizing the two teams was done by George Bone, who resides at New Haven, Conn. Today he telegraphed the lodge that all arrangements had been completed. That the old Fighting Five will be given an ovation on its appearance here is a foregone conclusion. Never has there been such a team in existence. Pone is recognized as the best rush the game has ever known. As a goal tender Clarence Jessup is in a class by himself. Mansfield, Doherty and the two Cunninghams are stars of the first magnitude which complete the lineup of this great quintette. To local polo enthusiasts no description of qualities posessed by Higgins, Hart. Gardner, Jean, Cameron and Sutton is necessary. All the players on the two teams have been playing the past winter in the New England league and at the present time are in first class condition.

"Watson is one of the greatest, campaigners Indiana ever had and will make a strong candidate. There was some personal riisspnsinn in n fow localities, but the convention showed him to be very strong and this will be eradicated.

"I want to be our hod guard." baid Dwyer. Warned of Danger. Dwyer urger the prosecutor, when the latter insisted on being in the courtroom to be on his guard, and. if McDonald made a motion to drop un der the table and let trie officers atj u. id to McDonald. Dwyer was sitting at the other end of the prosecutor's table and so quickly did the murderer empty two chum ber6 at Cooper and send the third one at the detective that the latter did not have time to draw his own weapon or try to save himself in any way. Cpaid when the verdict was being read and as swn as the purport of it had been reached he saw McDonald put his left hand into bis right-hand coat pocK et and bring out the revolver, which b handled apparently with both hands, aiming it at the prosecutor's head. Cooper slipped sideways out of 1H chair and under the table as the shot vas firetl Dwyer was struck in thf abdomen and was dead by the time the smole cleared away. Perhaps lo: persons were in the court room when the firing began, but all except a few had escaped to the corridor or adjoining rooms by the time the 'JO or more shots had been fired. James Reece, owner f one of the stores at Sand ford, dynamited by McDonald, was at the table with Cooper, and he. too, sought safety under th table.
