PROPOSED BALL TRUST.

A special of tbe l»th last. from Mlnjeapolis to the Chicago Tribune it^c A proposition haa oome to the Western A» raiation through leading baso-ball qmhi here which, if carried oat, will revolution Ire the game. It Is, in brief, a feeljt looking to th© consolidation of the Rational League, American Association ind Western Association and the form*^on therefrom of wo big pro^*«fonal feaffue* next year.

jhall include eluba located in New York, Mtkton, Philadelphia, Ilrooklyn. WasbJptgtoa, Cincinnati, Pitwburg-b and

Z^Jtho

Cleveland. The Western league is to Pfntwace In luicircnit the cities of Chl(cago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, St. Paul* iXa.nsaJiCity. Omaha, St. Louis and DopKdi This plan of a campaign against

I'layers' League has been hatching

—•^i-lnco the early week* of tho present sean.

kWhen

A. G. Spalding declared some ks ago that base-bail as a financial ?onture was "dead, "be but sounded the |ilarm and immediately with theco-op-deration of Billings, Conant and other ^*l$teairnates,of the League bo began to

look about him to see what steps could taken to revive tho Interest in the tional game next year. This Mr. Spalding thought could best bo done flay a pooling of issues. The American Jand Western Associations could be Cbrought into the field, and the war the Mrotberhooti for mutual pro Jtection must be fought out with the oooperation of tbeso two powerful lieu,-

Sonants.

Chris von dor Abo was approached nd signified bis willingness to go into /1 the combine. Then tho Western Assort elation magnate were questioned, but ^ioro Iho first difficulty arose. The western Association was on a paying v^nuds and it required all of the persuaslve efforts of the League emissaries to win the managers of tho respective

Western Association clubs over, and then thoy only agreed to go into the p»mhin© providing the scheme looked Ifavorabl© at the conclusion of the prosent season.

The scheme proposed to tbo Western ^magnates Is briefly this: Let the Ipcaguo American and Western Assooia* tions on tor into a practical combine, the |.staying strength and capital of all of

Wiom bving united, not only to revivo Interest in baso-ball throughout tho

There would bo sixteen clubs embraced

within the scope of tho National agree|ment eight of them would be located 4n an Eastern and eight in a Western circuit. Thereby tho traveling ex* ppnaes, mileage and other necessary

Items of expenditure would be eu|t down to a certain extent. Interest would also be stimulated in the National #tunet as *$ip matter bow much of a walk-over a *Ujlub had during tho season in its own 'circuit, there would always bo a doubt /, as to the team's superiority over the I *, winner on the other circuit, and tho idea of placing one game In each city on tho final series would meet with rreat favor and awaken Interest in the

Jjptcomo of the world's championship Series all over tbo country,

A FORECAST,

Wherein the New Leasat t* Likely to Hmv« Tronhle-Coiulitluu of th® CJntue, According to the views of an impartial outside critic, the Baltimore Every Saturday, the Players' league la likely to strike a snag next fall. It says: "The Players' League has yet to undergo its most trying ordeal, the arranging ol the players for next year's clubs. According to its principle it will not—or rather, should not—reserve a player so then. If the richer clubs, like Chicago and Boston, cast their greedy eyes towards tho best players in the poorer clubs, there Is going to be some unpleasantness in the Brotherhood camp. "Base-ball is In a critical condition not because the public has lost interest, but because tbo supply is greatei than tbo demand, the market is flooded with base-ball. The great trouble is that tho outlay In franchising base-baU has enormously increased, while the price of admission has remained the same and tho attendance has not beon increasing in the proper proportion to make up the deficit. Ono of the two things is bound to nappen before tbo season of 1890 i« finished: either tho cost of putting a baso-ball team through a season has got to be lowered or the price of admission raised. It is not at all likely that an effort in tho latter direction would be snccesgful,

aso

unless the expenses are

IMPORTANT RULING,

A DmUIod by faiijor Taylor on an Importunt Shooting Kule. An interpretation of ono of the Amen lean Shooting Association rules has jusi been made which is causing consider able talk among shooters. At tho recenf Shaner-Davison tournament, while shooting singles, rapid-flrlng system, Association rules, George Snyder had two traps sprung on him at once two or three times. On

ono

occasion, a shoot-off tie,

Snyder called "pull," and before thinking fired et one of the birds before he had time to collect himself.

He claimed another bird on rules 4 and 9i. Tho latter reads: "If two birds are sprung at the samo time. It shall bo declared no bird." But in rules Sand 14, sections 3 and 4, it onds bv: "But if he shoots, the result fehall be scored." Some shooters would have rule SI read the same, but Snyder olalmed that the strict Interpretation gave him anothor bird. But owe trap-shooter, T. Tully, sustained Snyder. Major J. M. Taylor mado tho following decision: "In single bird-shooting, when two birds are sprung from tho traps at tho same time it should be declared 'no birds' (see Ktilo 31), and tho shooter must have another bird from the trap opposite his score if using the rapidfiring system whether he shoots or not, and if he shoots It makes no difference what the result of the shot may bo. Rule 8 refers to birds broken by traps Rule 14 to pulling of traps."

Tho Sales 8y»t«m.

"T will' never spend another dollar for a ball-player's release as long as I am In the baso-ball business," said President Stem, of Cincinnati, the other day, "The Cincinnati Club has Invested as much money in this wa as any other club in the Oountry with tbo possible exception of the Boston and Brooklyn League clubs. The grand success that has followed the introduction of young players, notably Rhinesand Harrington, Is enough to convince mo that there is available talent to bo had for the asking, without paying for it Tho Brotherhood, instead of benefiting the ballplayer in general, has hurt him not a little. The value put on ball talent was false under the old regime. The chance given the youngsters by tbe revolt of the old players has prowd this conclusively. if tbe Brotherhood does last the »»ws»n out there will be a big sh&vo in salaries all around next season."

Tho'bay eolt .Tlmmy Rutledge,by BWlard, a son of Billet, out of Minnie Long, by Longfellow, second dam by Vandal, has been sold by James Rutleffe of Winchester, Ky., to J. A. Close, Buenos Ayers, South America.

No wonder that our breeders of thoroughbreds have been unable to purchase any of the best English stallions, Isonomy's book Is full for the next three years, and tho revenue from bis fees amounts to about £9,000 per annum.

Hindoocraft wass«nta mile,and a furlong at tho Saratoga track tho other morning, but he did not perform any too well. Ho will hardly amount to much before the late fali meetings, and then it will take a race-horse to show him the way past tbe finish.

James McKee, of Goshen, N Y., has bought of Joseph Dnnning, of Middloton, the young baby gelding Joe Dunning. The horse has never been trained, but whon driven around tho Goshen track made tbe distance In 1:10K- He Is by Knickerbocker, a Ion of Rysdyk's Hambletonian. dam a Harry Clay mare.

A four-year-old brown gelding called Shrub, who bas scored brackets four times or more over jumps for Mr. W. Wilson in England, was bought out of a coal-cart for flfteen guineas. Ho Is a well-bred one, however, being a Lowlander, out of Myrica, by Strathconan second dam Fragrance, by Voltigeur.

The subjeot of Australian thoroughbreds has been attracting so much attention lu this oountry of late that the following measurements of the orack race-horse, Carbino, taken when ho was rising four years old, may pcovo interesting: Height, 10 bands Inch girth, 5 feet

Tocques (dam of La Tosca, Turco, Turenne, etc.), by Monarque third dam La Tocques by the Baron. It shows what opinion Mr. Belmont had of the stock he sent to the .hammer when the same evening ho paid 82,200 to get his filly back.

Trainer Matt Allen has beon particularly unfortunate with Senator Hearst's horses. Time and again have they worked fast enough to break a v%toh, only to bo beaten away off in their raoes. This thing continued so long that Allen finally became disgusted and resigned from Senator Hearst's employ. The colored trainer Albert Thompson has taken charge of the Sonator's horses, and in the future they may bo looked for In the van more frequently.

The Darobin-Tulare colt that was sold at the Haggln sale bas arrived in England, where ho is liborally entered in 3 and 3 year-old events, including the Derby. It was thought best to take him over there as a yearling so that be may become acclimated. Ho is owned by a Mr. Hamilton Smith, who, by the way, sends over word that the fabulous sums said to have been offered for Donovan and other English horses exist only In tho imagination of some newspaper writers who are endeavoring to boom the market that American buyers, may invest. "Augur," in the Australasian, has had a good deal to say lately about the Australian blood In America, especially after a conversation with Mr. T. B. Merry. The latter gentleman was undoubtedly too eulogistic but one of his prophecies has come true In a lefthanded kind of way He expected to hear that Ballarat bad won the Realization, so if he had only mentioned his kinsman and stable companion. Tournament, he would have hit the mark. He thinks Prince Charming, by imp. St. Mod red. out of Carissima, should win tho Futurity. About Sal vator Mr. Merry waxed enthusiastic, as he said: "Dovil thank a horse for being a grand galloper he's got a pedigree like

Once in Akron my arm went lack on me entirely. I did not »lt around and give it a rest. Kcither did I bathe it is arnica or high wines. I simply pet on two heavy sweaters, and although It hurt tee even to raise my arm, went to work and pitched ball after ball. Great streams of perspiration poured off me, and it hurt me so badly that 1 had to grit my teeth, tl wad a case of grin and bear. I was bound to work it out and succeeded. The sweat did me good.
