SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAY

REPORT OF SIGNED PLAYERS PRESENTED Club to Play . Independent Ball If League Fails to Materialize. At a meeting of the Richmond Baseball club laat night, plans for the coming season were discussed and the report of the players who have been signed was presented to the members of the club. At a recent meeting at Indianapolis of several teams from different parts of the state, a league was formed and officers elected. The forfeit was placed at $200. At the meeting of the club last night, the money was posted with the secretary of the league, Ralph HusBon. The members of the local organization decided that independent ball will be played in Richmond if the plans for the league do not materialize. As there is usually trouble in securing all the forfleit money, it was necessary to make some arrangement by which Richmond would be sure of a team. The league which was organized at 'Indianapolis last week will be called the Eastern Indiana Baseball League. Ralph Husson of this city was elected secretary. The other officers are as follows: A. S. Blakely, sporting editor of the Indianapolis Star, president; "Doc." LJttell, Cambridge City, vice .president; Ralph Husson, Richmond, : secretary, and George Weeden, Indiianapolis, treasurer. The board of arbitration is composed of three Indianai polls sport writers. r SPORT NEWS i (National News Association) CHICAGO, March 11. Constant Le tularin has another victory to his crediit today after winning in two straight 'falls over Charley Cutler. The first fall came in 25:08 by means of a head lock. The second in 19:07 with a flying mare followed by a head lock. Cutler showed cleverness and had the disadvantage in the mix but apparently did not have the strength to push his advantage. BOONE, la., Mar. 11. Jimmy Archer, holdout catcher, of the Chicago cubs, asserted today that unless he were offered a contract calling for $7,500 he would not play ball this season. Archer and his wife were summoned here by the death of Mrs. Archer's mother. They will return to Ormond, Fla., during the latter part of the week. "I will not sign a contract for anything less than $7,500," said Archer. CHICAGO, March 11. President Powers of the New Federal League, prepared today to go to Cincinnati where the question of the franchise of a club In the new organization is to be considered. Both Cincinnati and Covington (Ky.) are after the franchise, Powers asserted. The president asserted the outlook of the new organization was very bright, with six clubs already in the organization and their forfeits posted and three others seeking admittance. The Federal League will offer a different form of contract to its players than those now used by the national association of baseball clubs. The contracts will be for terms of one, two and three years. When they terminate the players will become free agents and no club will have a "string" on them." DENVER, Colo., March 11.

It is understood that Mrs. Nelson's original plan to file an action asking absolute divorce on the grounds of mental cruelty will be carried out.

He has evidently given up this determination in the face of Mrs. Nelson's assertions that she will never live with him again, even if not granted the divorce. Nelson will take a vacation immediately after his week is tip at a local playhouse. His manager has cancelled all engagements during March and April. NEW ORLEANS, March 11.

ANOTHER JOLT FOR THE PLUM HUNTERS

(National News Association) WASHINGTON, March 11. Postmaster General Burleson today expressed himself as being heartily in favor of President Taffs order placing fourth class post masters under the civil service. "While the f-olicy of President Wil- ! son's administration with regard to postmasters has not been fully determined." said the postmaster general after the cabinet meeting today, "I have no objections to saying that the Taft plan has my approval and indorsement. I do not think he went far enough. Postmasters of the second and third class also should be placed under the civil service, and possibly t-ven those of the first class. It would prevent the employment of politicians as postmasters and greatly increase efficiency." Palladium Want Ads Pay. EXECUTOR'S PUBLIC SALE Resident Property Saturday, March 15, 2 P. M.
