The National Leitgii of Bass Ball clubs tK-gan Ita annual meeting at the Victoria hotel today. The chief IntereM of the meeting centered In the election of a president, although the question waa not taken up today, rrssl dent Harry C. Iulllam la a candidate for re-election, but la being strongly opposed by rival IntereMi, headed by John T. Brush of the New York club and Oarry Hermann of Cincinnati. James T. Hart, formerly owner and president of the Chicago club, waa also spoken of as a possible candidate. The exchange of Rltchey, second base man; Flaherty, pitcher, and one other player of the I'lttaburg club for Ab batlcchlo, second baseman of the Boston club, was announced. . ... Barney Dreyfus, president of the Pitts burg club, anounced that Fred Clark would again be manager of the Pittsburg club next season. "He haa not yet signed a con tract," said Dreyfus, "but I have hla as aurance that he will." President Fulllam read hla annual re port and declared that financially the last year waa the best that the National league ever haa had. The following resolution offered by Charlea It. Ebhetta of Boston waa unani mously adopted: "Resolved, that It Is the unanimous vote of this league that Presi dent Pulllam be most heartily commended for his untiring efforts In enforcing proper discipline upon the National league ball field during 190ft." WHTER DOPE OP A SIMMER GAME Lively Doings I'nder the Snow la the Bim I.engaes. The New York Giants propose to tske their spring practice In California, playing with Intermediate cities on their way west. Pa Rourke Is negotiating with Herr Me Oraw for n game or two and probably will be alii to give Omaha fans a rhance of eolng the new Qlnnts, who, McQraw says, will be the only real goods on the market. Sneaking of the Olants bringa up the re minder that this enterprising management has recently offered Hio.000 for that ex quisite pair of Uridegrooma, formerly Paints (8t. Poul), Lumley and Jordan, but Brooklyn la having trouble letting them go not so much that It doesn't want the money for the players, but that It wanta the most It can get, and In view of cer tain things which President Murphy 6f Chicago has recently said, Brooklyn ap pears to he playing the fast pony. Murphy has offered to trade fiheckard and Ruel back and $7,000 for Lumley, let alone Jor dan. The other day Murphy told a magnate well known In Omaha that he was going to have two of the fastest and halrdest hitting outfielders next year the diamond affords, and the other day also Murphy got on a train and started for New York. On his departure he said: "I am figuring on making the biggest deal ever attempted In major league base ball, but If I succeed It will be several daya before I announce my achievement." He was asked If he would land L,umley, to which he replied: "Manager Chance and I have determined to exert every legitimate effort to strengthen the Chicago Nationals. If 1 could land a couple of players I have In m!nd. and could get them by exchanging Chicago playera of almost equal strength, with an additional bonus, $30,000 would not be too much for me to give." It la quite definitely understood that Chi cago la anxious to supplant Sheckaxd. He la a faat fielder and a timely hitter except In world championship games but he la sulky and hard to manage and then la not the man at any stage of the game that Lumley Is. What disposition will be made of Hoff man Is not certain. Many good judges of ball players, notably your own Pa Rourke. thinks Arthur Is fnr too valuable a man for the outfield and not only may not be used as a utility man, but possibly will be brought from the out to the Infield. Hoff man forever set at rest anv question of , his prowess In those games with the White Box. His rapidity Is excelled by few men In the business, despite the fact he Is new and but 22 years of age. Borne people would not be greatly surprised to find Huffman covering third Instead of Stein fold t. Pa Rourke. . recognised as one of the ablest Judges of a ball player, ssys fur gv d timber give him the lad (mm the farm or country town In preference to him from the big city. "1 have found by experience," says Presi dent Rourke, "thst the man from the mall place has been a student of the game from the time he began to play It. He has more of Its fine points studied out than the fellow from the big city, who spes a food deal of his trickery from seeing the Ig games play. And another thing, the young follow from the country Is fnr more conscientious In hla effort to make good than his friend from the city. The city fellow Is likely to be a hit swelled and over-sure, while the lad from the brush Is fearing he rslrht not make good and is doing his best every minute. Comparisons are Invidious; If they were not I could rlnt out a few that would readily show am right." Eleven Reda are marked for the auction block by the Cincinnati club. They are Kelley, Corcornn, Wicker. Blegle, Dela. hanty. Deal, Dyer, Livingston, Becker, Fraser and Tlemeyer. The men will be placed on the bargain counter by Presi dent Herrlmann fn New York this week and disposed off to the highest bidder. "We have asked for waivers on these Ing. "and I fee) quite sure that we will men," said Preslden Herrmann this morn dispose of them In some way or other before the end ol next week." FIFTY MILES BEMUD RECORD Great Crowd Are Watching; Six-Day' Bicycle Grind. NEW YORK. Dec. 11. Thoumnds of per sons were again drawn to Madison Square Oarden todav and tonlirht to witness the six-day blrvcle races, which began at mid night Sunday. The most Interesting fea tures of today's grind were the attempts n the part of Walthour and his teammate, Bod el of Long Island, to make up the deficit of one lap, which they Incurred yesterday when they doubled up as a reconstructed team. They made frequent spurts ahead of the bunch, but each time they failed to make a gain. All the rldere are watching this pair very closely and are on the con stant alert lest Walthour or Bedel giln the coveted lap. Walthour came very nearly fooling the field late tonight, when he gained almost a lap after a desperate sprint, but there was a spill, and, although he was not In It. under the rules he was not allowed the advantage ho had gained. Ten o'clock score: Eight hundred mid seventy-four miles, one lap for all teams except Walthour and Bedel, who are one lan behind. The record for forty-six hours Is Ktf miles, four laps, made by Kike and MacFarland In 1900. ' AMERICAN LKAGIE MEETS TODAY Question of Shortening; Playing; Benson Comes I p. CHICAGO, Dec. 11. The question of shortening the playing season from 154 gamea to 140 games will be the prlnclpul subject that will come up for discussion at the annual meeting of the American Base Bell league, which will be held here to morrow. Borne of the members of the league are In favor .of shortening the play. Ing season, but It was said tonight that the majority of the owners oppose cjttlng the schedule aa played last year. The only other bustnese to be transacted, so far as Is known tonight, will be the election of a board of directors and a vice president. President joiinSniv holda office for a stipulated number of years, so the question of the presidency will not come up. When the meeting convenes In the morn ing the first business to be considered will be the awarding of last season's champion ship pennant to the Chicago team. The schedule question will then be con sidered and it Is believed that by evening all the business will be completed and that a aecond session will not be necessary. WITH THE BOWLERS. The Btoni Blue Ribbons hung to their lead In the league race by taking three games from the Cudahys r.t the Associa tion aJleys last night. The first two games were easy, but the packers gave them a scare In the last by getting a lead of slxtv pins In the first half. They couldn't hold the pace, however, and the Ptnn bovs are still two gamea ahead of the Krugs. Fran cisco pushed up his average with a total of S0 and a single game of 265.

PRESIDENT ON PORTO RICO Mftiare to I in ems Telia of Visit and Makes Booommendationi for Laws. SLAND !S BEAUTIFUL AND FERTILE Inhabitants Exercise Large Measure of Srlf-Gorernment, bnt Shonld Bo Made Cltlsene of lotted States, WASHINGTON, Dec. ll.-The president's message to congrees giving the result of his recent observation In Porto Rico and making recommendations concerning the government of that Islund was read to the senate today. The message wua as fol lows: To the fVnate and House of Representa tives: On November 21 1 visited the Island of Porto Rico, landing at Pince, crossing by the old B4inJMli road by l aycy to San Juan, and returning next niiirnlna over the new American ruud from Areclbo to ponce; the scenery was wonderfully beautiful, esjeclally among the mountains nf tin; in terior, which constitute a veritable tropic Switzerland. 1 could not embark at San Juan because the harbor. hs nut been dredged out and can not receive an Ameri can battleship. 1 do not tl.inlt this tact creditable to us as a nation, and 1 earnestly ho;e that Immediate provision will be made for dredKing S.m Juan harbor. I doubt whether our peoole aa a whole rcnllre the beauty and rer'tll'y of I'orto Rico, and tho progress that has been made under Its admirable government. We have Just cause for pride In the character of our representatives who have administered the tropic Islands which came under our flog as a result of the war with Bpain; and of no one of them Is this more true than of Porto Rico It would be Impossible to wish a more faithful, a more eflicient and a more disinterested public service than that now being rendered In the Island of i'orio Rico by those In control of the insular govern- 1 nicnt. I stopped at a dor.en towns all told, and ont of the notable features In every ton was the gathering of the. school childien. The work that hius been done In Porto Rico for education has ben nnu-wm thy. The main emphasis, as is eminently wise and proper, has been put upon primary educa tion; but In addition to this there Is a normal school, an agricultural school, three Industrial and three high schools. Every effort Is belnK made to secure not only the benefits of elementary education to all the Porto Rlcans of the next generation, but also as far as means will permit to train them so that the InduwtrUI, agricultural and commercial opportunities of the inland can be utilized to the best possible advan tage. It was evident at a glance that th"? teachers, both Americans ai;d native Porto Ricans. were devoted to their work, tcok tho greatest pride In It and were endeavi r Ing to train their pupPa, not only In m'nd, hut In what counts for fnr more than mind In citizenship, that Is, in character. Native Troops Efficient. I waa very much struck by the excellent character both of the insular police and if the 1'orto Rlcan regiment. They are both of them bodies thrft rellcct credit upon tho American administration of the Island. The Insular police are under the local Porto Rlcan government. The I'orio Rlcan regi ment of troops must be appropriated for liy the consress. 1 eartwstly hope that this body will be kept permanent. There should certainly be troops In the Island, and It is wise that these troops should be themselves native Porto Ricans. it would be from every standpoint a mistake not to perpetu ate this regiment. In traversing the Island even the most cursory survey leaves the Ix-holdcr sliuck with the evident rapid growth In the cul ture both of the suttar cane and tobacco. The fruit Industry Is also growing. Last year was the most prosperous year that the Island has even known before or since the American occupation. The total of exports and Imports of the Island waa JIo.OOO.imi, aa against S18,00o,Cuu in 1!1. This is the larg est In the Island's history. Prior to the American occupation the greatest trode for any one year was that of 18, when It reached nearly W.OfO.OOO. Last year, there fore, there was double the trade that there was In the most prosperous year under the Spanish regime. There were 210.273 tons of sugar exported last year, of the value of Il4.l8ii.319; 3,565.1t)3 of tobacco and 2x,:9).:(.i pounds of coffee of the value of $3.4K1,102. L'nfortunately, what used to be Pcrto Rico s prime crop coffee has not shared this prosperity. It has never recovered from the disaster of the hurricane, and moreover, the benefit of throwing open our market It It has not compensated for the loss lnlllcted by the closing of the markets to It abroad. I call your attention to the accompany'. .g memorial on this subject of tho Board of Trade of San Juan, and I earnestly hot that some measure will be taken for the benefit of the excellent and high grudj Porto Rico cofTee. In addition to delegations from the Board of Trade and Chamber of Commerce of San Juan, I also received delegations from the Porto Rlcan Federation of Labor and from the Coffee Growers' association. Citizenship for Islanders. There Is a matter to which I wish to call your special attention, and that Is the de sirability of conferring lull Ame:ic:tn c.ll zenshlp upon the people of Porto Rico. 1 most earnestly hope that this will be done. 1 can not see how any harm can possluli result from It, and It seems to me a mattii of right and Justice to the peuple of Porto Rico. They are loyal, they are glad to b under our flag, they are making rapid prog reus along the path of orderly liberty Surely we should show our appreciation o them, our pride In what they have done and our pleasure In extending recugnitlo: for what has thus been done, by grunting them full American citizenship. Under the wise admlnixtrnticn of the pre ent governor and council, marked projres. has been made In the difficult matter o! granting to the people of the Island tin largest measure of self-government that can with safety be given at the present time. It would have been a very serious mistake to have gone any faster thun we have already gone In this direction. The Porto Ricans have complete and absc lute autonomy In all their municipal governments, the only power over them possessed by the Insuiar government being that of removing corrupt or Incompetent municipal officials. This power has never be-n exereclsed s:;ve on the clearest procf of corruption or of In competency such as to jeoixtrdlze the Inter ests of the people of the Island; and under such circumstances It has been fearlessly used to the Immense benefit of the ople. It Is not a power with which It would be sefe, for the sake of the Islund Itself, to disiense at present. The lower hou.ie Is ab solutely elective, while the upper houa; Is appointive. Thla scheme is working well; no Injustice of any kind results from it, and great benefit to the Isl.ind, and It should certainly not be changed at this time. Elections Are Fntr. The machinery of the elections is admin istered entirely by the Vorto Rlcan people tlvemselves, the governor and council keep ing only such supervision 11s Is neess.try in order to Insure an oiderly elei tion- Any prvlest as to electoral frauds is settled in the courts. Here apaln It would not be safe to make any change In the present sys tem. The elections this year were abso lutely orderly, iinacrompanli d by any dis turbance; and no prousl has been made against the management of the elections, although three contests are threatened where the niaJorltNs wete very small and error was claimed; the contests, of c. un-e. to be settled In the courts. In short, the governor and council are co-operating with all of the most enlightened and most patri otic of the people of I'urto Rico In educat ing the citizens of the Island In the pr.n clples ot orderly liberty. They are pio Vlding a government bused upon each cltl sen's self-respect, and the mutual respect of all citizens; that Is, based upon a ruid observance of the principles of justice and honesty. Real Prowress Mnde. It has not been easy to Instil Into the minds of peoplo unaccustomed to the ex ercise of freedom, the two batdc principles of our Americun system; the principle that the maturity mufct rule, and the pmneipl-' that the minority has rights which- must nut be disregarded or trampled up n. Vet real prwgress has been made in having t!iec principles accepred as elementary, as th foundations of successful eelf-goveriinien! . I transmit herewith the report of the governor of Porto Rico, sent to the presi dent through the secretary of state. All the Insular governments should be placed In one bureau, either In the Depart ment of War or the Department of State. It is a mistake not so to arrange our hand ling of these Islands at Washington as to be able to take advantage of the xprinc gulred in one. when dealing with tiie prob lems that from time to time arUe in another. In conclusion l"t me express my admira tion for the work done by the congress when It enacted the law under which the Island Is now being administered. After seeing the island personally, litul after five years' experience in c nnectlon with Its sd mlnlfttatlnn. It Is but fair to those who de vised, this law to sav that It would be wel nlKh lmposllle to have devised anv other vhtrh In tli" actual woiklng would have accomplished better rt suits.

Hestrup Is another Rip Van Winkle In age, appearance and habits and la re peatedly arrested for drunkenness.

Hestrup did not tako the same view, but there was no appeal. One of the court officers remarked that If the prisoner had been given sixty days for each time he had been arrested for drunkenness Hestrup would have spent many years In Jail and still owt about twenty years.
