Omaha fana had the double opportunity Wedneeday of seeing Ta a new recruit In action, and alao of aeelng the elars of the Washington American league team at work. Hughes and Walter Johnson both took a turn at pitching, and while they did not extend themaelven. they gave evi dence of . being poaaesaed of the real gooda. Tracy Johns, a big southpaw, almost as big as Jack Pfelster. atarted to twirl for Omaha, and right well he behaved agalnat such noted athletes and before such a large crowd. During the four Innings he worked ha allowed but three hits and no runa. nd did not paaa nor hit a man. RiUmann occupied the box during the next three Innings ad was batted all over the lot for nine hits. Rulo Jarrott was trotted out for the last two innings. Downs wa the first man to face him, and knocked tha ball so It bounded over the middle field fence for a homer and wY Johnaon followed with a single, but that was all they got. Hew Men Look Good. The fans were well pleased with some of tha new talent which Pa presented for the first time In Omaha. Smith the ul.lllty ln flelder from the east, played short and took nine chances without a wobble. Vasblnder made good with the manngement. and also looked good to the fans. He takes the position cf a real batsman and is fast. A pitched ball put him out of commission in the sixth .Inning. Pendry did not have a chance to aliow what he could do In the fielding line except In practice, for Joe Cantlllont big. fellow did pot knock the balls In his direction.

March 31. -The National Rase Rail commission today announced the following ruling: Attention is called to the published claim that the Cleveland club has secured the services of Player J. B. Henderson of the outlaw Stockton club, and that In return they tranaferred two players to the Hort Isnd club of the Pacific Coast league for his release. The Boston club claims that title to this player Is vested In It. An agreement has been filed with the commission by the Cleveland club whereby they release Players Graney and Breen to the Portland club, the conslderstlon being that the Cleveland club shall have the pick of any player of the Portland club during the season of Pt. and furthermore that In the event that Pitcher Henderson Is roln ststed Into organised base ball, that they shall have an option on this pitcher's re lease. This being a dispute between an American league club and a National league club, under the agreement the right to the player shall be established by the chair man of the commission without the aid of his associates. . - The evidence submitted shows the Boston National league club negotiated for the services of this player with the Portland club In 1907, and that he was carried on the Boston club's list for two years. It appears, however, that the negotiations between tha Portland club and the Boston National league club for the release of the player were, never closed. It further appears that tha Boston club was to secure the services of this player for a tryout and that they were to give In return aome consideration and the choice of some players In the year following the release of the player to the Boston club. Had an agreement of thla kind been pie sen ted to ths commission it would have been rejected, because all minor lrigue players are subject to draft unless they are sold previous to August 20 of each year. The finding of the chairman of the commission Is that the Boston National league club never secured title to this player and their claim for his services are there fore rejected. It Is evident hat the Port land club takea the same view of this case or they would not hsve entered Into the agreement with the Cleveland club. This latter agreement being In proper form was spproved by the commission ajid the player awarded to the Cleveland American league club when the Ineligibility against the player has been removed by the National Base Ball association.

GAME AT RACQUET CLUB FAST thlraaro Fana tame Oaf With Pro fessor Ronkea, Who Says ee4a More Tryoata Before Meeting; Kennedy A grain. "Spike" Kennedy put It oer Prof. Henry Rnakes of the Chicago Athletic club In squash Wednesday afternoon. 3 to 2. The melody was like this; First gsnie, 10-15. Second gsme. IS-". Third game. 15-12. Fourth game. 10-15. Fifth game. 15-9 In spite of his 5 yesrs. "the old sport." as he Joshlngly calls himself, put up a stiff fight, and It looked like his match the greater part of the time. However, Rnakes tried to rvn "Spike," but Thomas Frank wouldn't be run, much to the for mer's sorrow, "It wa a hard match," said the de feated Chicaa-oan afterward. "Kennedy steady, persistent work, his strong return and his speed proved too much for me." The match was merely an exhibition, nd a return contest for the one Kennedy played at Chicago with the professor couple of months ago, when the score of 3 to 2 waa turned In favor of Boake. A congenial bunch of club member and their Chicago guest witnessed It on one of the courts of the snug Racquet club. Starting strong and with things appar ently going Just as he pleaaed, Boake easily won the first game of the match. 15-10. But Spike came back In the next and trimmed him with an ease that at first looked as If Boakes was Just play ing possum, the score being 15-7. Kennedy Doe the nasalag, It waa feared that the local favorite might ha.ve tough luck again with hi hand, which failed him at Chicago by developing a cramp.. However, Spike con tinued to do things and won the third game, 15-12. after a strenuous bsttle, the Prof, waking up with a vim. Coming back strong In the next set-to, Boakes kept ahead till he passed the fifth point, with Spike stuck at the one. but the latter took a booat and after tying him kept on going to 10 without giving Boakea a look-in. The plav waa aa close and clever as had ever been dished out at the club's courts, back-and-forth chas ing, with Kennedy doing most of the run ning, characterizing the game, aa Boakea was trying to make his opponent play It at all times, but with only mediocre success. During the game, a Chlcagoan shouted, "A 31,nrm on Boakes," but the local corn ing such paltry stakes, waited for some thing big. But it didn't come, for with the continuance of the smashing, pounding, hammering gsme that was being played, It began to look as If Rnakes didn't have such a snap after all. The II. POO offer waa not repeated, and there soon appeared other signs of backsliding on the part of the visitors. Boakes kept up his wonderful style of play, but he visibly weakened In the run ning game and once In a while seemed to give away a point or at least a swerve when hard ' preened. Possibilities of vic tory for Spike cheered the gallery to re newed Interest. If such a thing were pos sible with a lightning match already In progress. Boakea Snres Three Stralarhta. Prof. Boakes finally pulled out of the Impending defeat and won the fourth. 16-10. thereby preventing his losing the match by dropping three straight games. But the last gams was tha masterpiece. "Ixive all," was the standing until after five or ten minutes of play, during which Boakes graciously gave over his claim to a point In order to prevent a wrangle and kept on playing his Jovial, easy game, so different tn Spike's sometimes almost hot-headed style of squash. "The old man's all right," shouted the crowd, and Boakea showed his apprecia tion by copping a few points and keeping ahead of Kennedy until the marker had moved nine of the little black squares oppo site Boake' name, while Spike score stood at 5. Then came Spike' brace. Of H the braces, an Irish spike would naturally lead the show, but with a hollering bunch of sports to back him, such a brace a he put up Is not seen often. First tying the score after getting the serve, then passing on till the board read 14-10 In his favor, the braca took hint with such sureness and speed that It rams near being a margin of 8, by which he won. But Boakes managed to get the aerve and added another ! to his score before Spike put the "ffxlns to the dope" and landed the 15. Then maybe the fans didn't whoop It up. Spike Kennedy had "did the deed." and his defeat In the Windy City by the professor Isn't felt so much now. Mullin. of the' New York Athletic club, referred the mstch and Sam Burns, jr., wss marker. The Chicago expert said before he left for home last night, that he's not used to mixing with squssh ball men in big matches, so H1 need a few more try-outs before he ran put It over Spike.

Senate Knocks Out Proposed Duty on Coffee Brazil Cannot Repeal Export Tax and Syndicate Holds Four Mil lion Bags for Rise. WASHINGTON, March 31. -Recognising that Brasil Is powerless to suspend Its ex port tax on coffee, because for the next several year thla tax Is Indlssolubly linked with It foreign debt, the senate committee on finance today decided to atrlke out of the Payne bill the countervailing duty pro posed.

It is nature's remedy for this disease, made entirely from healthful vegetable ingredients extracted from the roots, herbs and barks of the forest and fields. S. S. S. goes down into the blood and removes every trace of the cause of Rheumatism, cleanses and purifies the circulation, and restores health and comfort to those who are suffering from this painful disease. There is but one way to be sure you are not dosing your system with mineral medicines, and that is to take S. S. S. Book on Rheumatism and any medical advice free.
