HOMES OF THE HIGH STAKES PRESIDENT O'NKILL threatens trouble for the National commis sion with relation to Us policy to ward outlawed players. He call , attention to the f:ict that the com mission has countenanced the rrdemptlin of star players from the outlaws, while holding the embargo tightly upon players of less magnitude, lie cites particularly the ' case of Pitcher Hen Henderson, who has bfn picked by Cleveland. Henderson, a very ordinary man when In Omaha, wrms i to have become a phenoni In California, i The protocol of peace which led to a ' complete adjustment of the outlaw situa tion provided that players then In the bandettl should remain there four years, under certain conditions, before returning ! to organised base ball. Now It Is proposed to allow Henderson to go to Cleveland. O'Neill says If this ts done he sees a chance to get back several Western league , players In the outlaws, Huok Franck, ' LsBrand, Kelley, McDonough and others. Jf the commission Is going to enforce this rule at all It should be no respector of persons; It cannot safely make fowl of . one and fish of the other, or enforce It : In the case of an ordinary player and ! suspend it In the case of a star. Such a practice Is repugnant to the high and lofty idea) the commission sought to sub serve when it sanctioned this new rule and moreover If indulged in, will tend to bring organised base ball Into as great disrepute as the outlaw could ever have been. It Is setting a poor example to the outlaw, this thing of early making exceptions to a rule which was Intended as the etna qua non of the whole treaty between the legal and outlaw organisations. But such a . course Is not new. The authorities have Jn the past too frequently lifted the bane ' of law for the star player to pass from the outlaw back Into the fold of the redeemed at his pleasure. The case of Hal Chauf stands out as the most flagant. The only way tff prevent outlawry is for the law ' giver and law defenders of base ball to apply their rules with equal Justice to the high and low and let no offender escape the penalty merely because he happens to be a more skilful player than his brother ' Jn sin. If President O'Neill makes a test of this law he will be entitled to the esteem and gratitude of the base ball public, as well as the minor note in the symphony , of players. The tendency of base ball legislation is toward a tighter restriction -of the play ers. The National league has adopted a schedule of 188 games, lengthening It from j 1M games and both, major leagues have ,0 decided to exact from all players signed for this year a stipulation that they are to refrain from all post-season playing, "barn storming." This means that the man who sign a major league contract for the base ball season, of about six months, binds himself to the will and authority of his employer for twelve months, so far as base ball la concerned. . There appears to be justice on both side of this question. In A the first place the magnate ha a right to expect that the man to whom he pays a liberal salary will exert reasonable effort to keep himself In the best of condition from season to season. Barnstorming and mid-winter ball playing is very liable to put him out of condition. There are many such cases of record. Again, the man who pay out $80,000 to 1100,000 a year to main tain' a big league ball team has something at stake in the matter of reputation.. It is not only unbending! dignity for his team to go out at the close of a season and get L walloped by a brush leaguer or a town-lot club, but it tends to cheapen the name of the team and the game and thereby vitiate that element of Investment represented in reputation. On the other hand the player, who though drawing a fairly good salary, hasn't yet come, In most' cases, to share a liberally in his employer's profits as he believes he should, think he ought to be i allowed to pick up what extra and easy money he may so long as he gives hi em ployer the best service he ha during the leugue season. Since the National league ha added no extra pay for It player with those fourteen extra games, it really eenis that so far as this league Is con cerned, some latitude should be given the player a to hi freedom of action during the month he 1 not In action for the league. Already It 1 necesaary for pro fessional ball player to report from a " mouth to six week before the regular sea son open for training and, while the play er are at no expense for that time, no systematic payment of salaries is known to have been adopted by the magnates. To . an Impartial observer It would appear that m with the enormous increase In base ball revenue, the lengthening of the season and the shortening of the privilege to the flayer, the magnates might reasonably be expected to tack onto some salaries Just Mont of The t f nnaartra nn Ike Pro prietary Kyatem Fortunes Made h Tbelr wners Some Vlrlaaltudra. NEW VOltK, Jan. IS. The passing of one of London's famous bridge clubs from a separate existence to become the till of a theatrical enterprise recalls the discussion of some years bko as to the respective ad vantages of the English and the American systems, ho proprietary and the social club. In America such a thing ns a proprietary club owned and managed by one man Is almost unknown, the Knickerbocker Ath letic club being the most conspicuous ex ample of Its failure as a system. Tn Ion dor. it Is the unual thing, and almost all the medium sized clubs which are devoted to some special purpose, such as cirri tlaylnir, are proprietary. In the old days this was a money making enterprise, and some Immense fortunes were piled up by the proprietors of London card clubs. But now. whenever a club shows signs of unusual prosperity the members get together and Insist on form Ing some sort of governing body which shall have power to pass upon the propos als for membership. They also see to It that the proprietor spends a proper propor tion of his profits on the comfort of the member Instead of putting everything Into his pocket. I The fashions In the curd clubs continually change with the year and with the games that are the rage. A century ago It was against the rules In many of the best clubs to play cards before dinner, whereas now adays the principal play Is between the hours of 4 and 7. The Income of the proprietor today . Is f mm the annual sub' scrlptlons and from the fixed fees for card money. In the old days the largest source of . revenue was from the counter picked up from the floor after the game was over. Qeorga Uaggstt, the owner of White's. one of the most famous gambling club In the world, situated on St James street. After I'd retired his place was tnken bv the famous Franratelli, whose suppers at the club were so excellent that they prompted Theodore Hook to apply to Crockford the scriptural quotation: "He fllleth the hungry with good thlnus and the rich he hath sent empty away " When Crockford retired in H40 he wits rated as worth IR OOnftX).' and It was s.M hat Ma aristocratic clients owed him at least $2,500,000 more, which he spent the rest of his life trying to collect. Any person walking wesinard on Tall Mall and crossing St. James street at that end Would run n'limn Into 8? nn un. pretentious looking house, but one of the most 'famous In London. This was origi nally Graham's club, named after th.i father and son that owned it, and Its members devoted themselves exclusively to cards, whist being the principal game. About twenty years ago the same build ing was occupied by the St. James club, of which Cavendish was a member, play ing there almost dally, but the new tenant made little change in the building, which Is Just about as it was when It was known as Graham's. It was at Graham's that l,ird Henry Bentlnck Invented the signal for trumps and It was here that the sharp eyes of the whlst players first detected the crooked methods of Lord de Flos, which were afterward aired in the courts. Such wis the difficult of keeping undesirable char acters out of proprietory clubs that It was found necessary on December 31, 13. to dissolve the Graham's club and then reorganise it, simply to get rid of some ten or twelve persons who were not wanted. The reorganisation does not seem to have helped matter much as the club did not prosper afterward and finally the Graham's determined to close up, because they could not collect the subscriptions due from members. Such was the end of the most famous whlst club In the world. Every bridge player knows the Port land, from which have emanated many excellent codes of laws for card games. The first home of this club was In Blooms bury square, near the British museum. Then It went to Jermyn street, which runs parellel to Piccadilly, and from thence to Stratford place. That building has been torn down and the club Is now snugly housed at the southwest corner of Tork street and St. James square. It is at the Portland that one looks for the most famous bridge players of today and It 1 to the Portland that every Ameri can with pretensions to skill as a bridge player naturally turns his face upon his PLSN TRACK MEN IN HARNESS Mike Murphy Has a Large Number of Candidates for Team.

"I have played base ball In the presence of 26,000 persons and was not aware of the presence of a single Individual except my opponents and teammates," say Char ley Dooln, premier catcher and new man agar of the Philadelphia Nationals. A man who can keep his head like that has the first prerequisite of a successful man ager. But there Is more than that In this utterance of Dooln's. Any man who. In the heat of Unse rivalry, under the con stant bombardment a catcher has to en dure, charged with as great responsible ties as are his, hooted and Jeered or ap plauded, aa the case may be, by 25.000 ex cited partisans any man who under ruch circumstances can still keep his head so mat n is "not aware that another nmi vidual" but those engaged In the game are present.

It Is another proof of the oft made statement that the man who can ucoeed With the beet on the professional base ball field can succeed in the arena of most any business life. He has the nat ural elements of success. Some of the proprietory clubs adopted M.M Kdswnrth'a storv of ""Patronage curious rules to attract and keep their ctni .thr n,.nerl Windham customers.

I have mapped out a campaign and I think It will come out all right. We lost the champion ship of i;H)S through a fluke, and while our boys sprung a surprise by capturing third place last spring, it's a sif bet they will win the championship this yvv' According to the plans, the sprimer.

OLYMPIAN GAMES THIS YEAE Nelson is Willing to Fight Winner Not Disturbed Over Welsh's Claims for the Championship Honors, NEW YORK, Jan. 15,-Battllng Nelson is not a bit ruffled by the faot that Freddie Welsh has laid claim to the world's light weight title and will defend It In a battle with Fackey McFarland In London soma time In February. Nelson says that when the proper time arrives he will take on the winner of the Welsh-McFarland bout, but stipulates that he must name the weight conditions 133 pounds ringside. Meanwhile Nelson says he will go to Ban Francisco the latter part of this month to begin training for the forty-ftve-round fight with Al Wolgast on February 22. He ad mits that he has not signed articles, but intimates that there will be no trouble on that score and that the terms offered by Promoter Hester and accepted by Wol gast will be agreeable to him. Nelson has signed articles for an eight round bout before the Memphis Athletic club, with a second rater named Eddie Lang, on Jan uary 21, for the purpose ot trying himself out. He laughts at the stories that he is "going back" and predicts that he will make short work ot Wolgast. But he still refuses to consider ths challenge of Owen Moran and declines to say Just when he will be ready to meet Welsh or McFar land. Nelson's friends hint that after the Wol gast fight he may go to Australia to fight Unholx, Brltt, Summers or some other lightweight, in which event It will be a long time before the winner of the Welsh- McFarland battle can get a crack at him. McFarland, who sailed for England the other day, says that Wolgast has an 1 excellent chance to beat Nelson in forty- five rounds, for the reason that the Dane has deteriorated In both skill and stamina.
