CounsU for the American League club argued that the constitution of the National league waa In violation of the Sherman anti-trust law, aa It retained a player's services for all time, but the court did not agree with that view.

S. belay In F.irratloa. Although today's decision of the oourt practically makes the Injunction against the players permanent technically, the re straining order will not be made permanent until the National league amends the bill of complaint to cover the season of 1902.

We shall carry the case to :he supreme court and feel certain that tha ower court will be reversed. Our attorneys i will at once take the Decenary ateps for an .. appeal." Manager Mack aald that while the loss or Lajole, Bernhard and Fraser would be a big handicap, he believed that he could get along without them until the supreme court decides on the case. John I. Rogers of the National League club, aald: r "Under the ruling of the aupreme court no other action waa possible. 1 shall at onoe prepare casea against Monte Cross, Filch and Cuggteby, who are now playing with the American League team and shall apply for Injunctions against them.

CHICAOO, April J9. President Hart of the Chicago National League club, and a mem- ber of the league's governing triumvirate, said today of the Pennsylvania decision la the Lajole case: The Injunction cannot be circumvented. Talk of oarrvlnr tha ma tn h it.u.j BtaUs supreme oourt la ridiculous, as the Pennsylvania aupreme court la the court of last reaort In that atate. Bpeaklng of the Missouri cases. President Hart aald: The National league la Indifferent to an adverse decision In that state. Losing In any other atate we can simply go to Penn sylvania and secure Injunctions which will prevent playera of any club playing in Pennsylvania, and Philadelphia and Pitts burg, two Important ball cities, are In that state. You may be prepared to see a long list of Injunction. It may be the playera we go after will not strengthen our teama much, but the action will have a good effect on the future crop ot players. Same of the men who have Jumped we don't care ibout, but such men as Ualy and Jonea of the White Stockings will be enjoined. I believe. : Mr. Hsrt stated that the contract to which the Pennsylvania decision bold tha player was drawn by the attorney for the Players' Protective association. Sophs Win Aaaee Meet.

CREIGHTON BEATS WASHBURN Splendid Game of Ball Between tol lealana Won by the Omaha Lads. The 4O0 spectators who waved their colors and rooted on Crelghton field Monday witnessed a snappy, clean-cut game of base ball, In which Crelghton defeated Wash bum college by a score of ( to 2. The Kan tan are Just completing a long northern tour through Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Dakota, and out of four teen games played have lost but three, one to Missouri, one to Highland Park and yesterday to Crelghton. From the first It was a clean, hard-fought contest. For five Inhlnga the score remained 2 to 1 In favor of Washburn, and the Crelghton rooters began to grow fearful. Then the 'Varsity men dabbed on their war paint and began In earnest. A combination of beautiful sacrifices, clever base stealing, scientific coaching and hard hitting and Crelghton came out of the sixth Inning two runs to the good. In the eighth Inning two more runs were scored and all the while, try aa they would, the Topeka men could not gain another run and tne game ended R to 2 In favor of Crelghton. The acknowledged star of the day was Harry Welch, Crelghton former captain and star ptt'Ler. Never before had a iUr pitched such ball on Crelghton field. Terrific speed, combined with almost perfect control, made evjn the veterans from Washburn, who had hit with ease such pitchers as Ellis and Thompson of Des Moines, bite the dust. In baiting he aiso excelled, with two two baggers and a single. In a lesser degree his opponent, Doane, shared the pitching furors. Excellent curves, cool-headednesa and ctntrol enabled htm to give a fine ex hibition of pitching. Third Baseman Crelghton, gulltv of the only errors on the Crelghton side, redeemed himself by hitting out a beautiful two sacker, which scored two runs. Bucklln, Lynch, Btone and Dlneen gave Welch ex cellent support, In fact, the whole Crelgh ton team supported their pitcher In grand style, aa also did the Kansas lads. In every respect the game was a creditable on.i. Wafhburn left for Lincoln last night, where It plays Nebraska tomorrow, and Crelghton prepares for Its game with the famous Nebraska Indian aggregation at Vinton park next Saturday. Score: CREIGHTON.

APPEAL TO COMMERCE COMMISSION Wichita Chamber of Commerce Pre sents Tetltlon for Correction of Alleged Discrimination In FaTor of Kansas City. CHICAOO, April 29. Merchsnts and manufacturers ot Chicago have united In a strong protest to the Interstate Com merce commission against alleged discrim ination In transcontinental rates. It U charged that by the rates made Chicago manufacturers are placed In competition with New York for Pacific coast trade and for trade west of the Rockies. Attention la called to the fact that equal rates from New York practically eliminate the advantage which should be Chicago's owing to her situation territorially. To this charge the answer of the railroad managements has always been that water competition by the way of the gulf has made It Imperative that the same rates be made from New York to the Pacific coast as from Chicago, St. Louis, St Paul and other Mississippi river valley points. Were the rates made higher from New York by the all-rail route the lower rates existing by water from New York to the gulf and thence by rail will take all the traffic that way. The reeult Is that Jobbers In the middle west have been unable to compete with New York jobbers by reason of the local freight rates charged from New York to Chicago. Wichita Has a Complaint. KANSAS CITY, April 29. Wichita, Kan., through Its Chamber of Commerce has pre sented a petition to the Interstate Com merce commission complaining against the railroads for alleged discrimination In freight rates. The railroads are charged with discrimi nating In grain rates In favor of Kansas City. The main point In the contention Is that while Wichita Is much . nearer the ports on the Oulf of Mexico the same rates on grain Is charged as over the longer haul from Kansas City to the same points. A hearing of the Interstate Commerce com mission to Investigate the charges will be held In Wichita before June 15. The roads against which the complaint 's directed are the Atcbl.on, Tepeka ft Santa Fe. the Oulf, Colorado A Santa Fe, the Chicago, Rock Island ft Pacific, the Chicago, Rock Island ft Texas, the Houston ft Cen tral Texas, the Texas ft Pacific, the Mis souri Pacific, the 'Frisco system, the Texas Midland, the Illinois Central, the Galves ton, Houston ft Henderson and the Inter national ft Great Northern.

SAYS DREYFUS WAS GUILTY M. I.e Ron Declares the French Prisoner Made Confession of Conspiracy. CHICAOO. April 29 Alleged secrets of the Dreyfus case, unknown to mary Frenchmen who followed closely the pro ceedings of the trial, were confided to University of Chicago students todsy by M. Hugues Le Roux. The French lecturer declared that Captain Dreyfus admitted guilt at the time he was pardoned. "Captain Dreyfus not only was guilty of conspiracy against the French government, but he confeesed to a number of charges and asked fer mercy when signing a pe tition for pardon." was the statement with which the French lawyer and lecturer astonished his auditors. "Thst Dreyfus actually admitted his gulit Is not generally known even by people who endeavored to follow the case closely In all Its phases." M. Le Roux explained to the students that his knowledge of the case came largely from the fact that be was ssked by friends of Captain Dreyfus to tske up the defense of the prisoner. "At the time my aid was sought," added M. Le Roux, "I told Captain Dreyrus friends that I would take up the case If they would show me that the man was innocent ot the charges against him. They were unable to do this. "You may ask why It Is not conclusively shown to the public that Dreyfus was guilty. It can be shown now, but It will not be on account of , the heated public sentiment both In and out of France. It has been decided that In twenty-five years tne wnoie affairs will be made clear. At that time many records will he given to the public which thus far have not been seen except by examiners In private. In twenty five years people will be able to look at the case dispassionately, which they cannot do now."
