What might be called a curtain raiser for the Chicago-Michigan game was the annual Initiation of the Three-Quarter club candidates of the freshman class. Dressed in duck and straw hats, the "freshies" were compelled to parade the gridiron chained together, while their sophomore brothers compelled them to sing the Chicago songs and to give the Chicago yells. The early enthusiasm was all on Chicago's side, songs, yells and new cheers being shouted across the gridiron with unusual spirit, but Michigan soon showed Stagg's men some new football trick, and the final score was: Michigan 21, Chicago 0. BASEBALL HISTORY IS BEING MADE Leaders of Two Leagues Making Important KUves In New York City PULLIAM ATTENDS AMERICAN MEETING. fuss about a series of indoor games.

Ed Phelps, the Pittsburg catcher, has organized a team at Albany, and Hans Wagner is getting up a team around here: President Dreyfuss believes that a game in this city on Thanksgiving day would make a hit. The Cleveland correspondent of Sporting News is fair. He knows that Leach has been abused by the American League, and is not afraid to call attention to the injustice of Johnson's charge. He writes: "Baa's side of the controversy is that he has not received the $1,000, and consequently has no official knowledge that Leach does not intend to live up to his American League contract. There is no denying, however, that Tommy sent the advance money to Somers, and if Ban has not been informed also of this fact he had better read the papers, which announced the fact several weeks ago.

Louis Bruce, the Indian pitcher, who was touted as a Red twirling possibility early in the fall. has. stepped into the Toronto band wagon. Big Bill Massey, who was a Red experiment the last year of the Comlskey regime in Cincinnati, has also signed with the Canucks. When Mique Kahoe was handed to Chicago season before last Tom Loftus gave the Red club an option on the services of Fred Raymer It was never taken up.

Now that player is considered the most promising infielder in the California League, and he has a hatful of offers for 1SJ03. Buffalo claims him. Detroit wajts him and Columbus has an idea that he is their meat. A special from Cleveland quotes Somers as saying: "Fully expect that Johnson will announce the location of the New York grounds before he leaves that city." Even Rivals Give Pittsburg Credit of. Having the Finest Quartet THE RAID WAS NOT SERIOUS.

Cincinnati, November 15. Many a pint of roasted chestnuts will be put away before the diamond campaigners In the National get Into championship action," but looking the ground over at this early i hour It can safely be said that Fred Clarke's Pittsburg squad Is the bunch that Cincinnati will have to wallop In the struggle for the flag In 1003. says the Eu-qulrer. After the smoke has cleared away It apparent that while the raid of Baa Johnson's cohorts swelled Barney Drey- iuss saiary urt iiKe a small boy with a pound of dried apples and a quart ot water under his belt, the Pirate pitching staff alone was damaged, and at that Barney is likely to get along without calling for slab help from Whoopla William White, Wild Bill Wldner or One-armed uaiy. i The defection of Lefty Davis doesn't I count any more than the loss of a pair ofj trousers from the wardrobe of a man who I has a dozen suits of clothes.

That Vnilnmtpp lri lh. I as an outfielder, and then there Is good old Hans Wagner to fall back on a kins either in or out. The saving of the Pirate infield makes Pittsburg formidable.

It may be months too soon to com-, mence to weigh anybody's chances, butj the scales In Balldom are always in working order, and here in Porktown itj Is better to enter the fans In the Iteallza-' tion Stakes, for Pittsburg still has a baa' team.

Chicago, November 15. As far as the rank and file are concerned there is no division of sentiment on the outcome of th conference that began at the Auditorium tonight. The National Association Board of Arbitration was on hand in full force, and nearly every American Association club was represented. The Immediate future of hundreds of players will be shaped by the conference, which Is the most important balldom has seen since the healing of the breach in the National League ranks last spring. The husky ball player hopes that the dove of peace will have all Its feathers shot off during the argument, which Is scheduled for a couple of days' run.

When Torn, Bums, of "The Millionaires," returned to Colorado after the gathering of the minor magnates In the East, he proceeded In his mind to scale the salaries of the players without the use of alum. He asked himself the question: "Why should the ball player, with no ability In any other line, get a great big, fat salary, way out of proportion to that paid In any other line of business?" and then answered it In Italics so: "These players who have been getting $250 and $300 per month for their work will be cut from $75 to $150." That was alleged National Association doctrine, and It explains why the sons of swat are hoping that razors will be flying In the Windtown air. They know that the American Association was alone responsible for the fat harvest time all minor leagues enjoyed during the past season, and with the A. A. in line there will be a stringency In the advance money market.

The American Association holds the trump cards, but W. T. Van Brunt has been playing a stiff hand. Thomas Jefferson Hickey's organization Is not willing to abandon either Kansas City or Milwaukee, but offered to fight It out for peaceable possession or to give the Van Brunt "Westerners half the Kansas City stock In the association. "Kansas Cltv doesn't want war." remarked Billy Hart, of Cincinnati.

"Why. Bond Hill in a cinch could draw as many people as either Kansas City club did last season. In one game there without i opposition last summer the Peoria Club's I nf tbA Fntf was iust $1,301" I In times of peace, and one club, Kansas City was one of the best baseball towns in the country.

The Erasworth second team claims the game which was to have been played with Unique A. C. by the score of 16 to 0. The Uniques came down and some of their players left Clifton grounds to go and see another game in the town, which caused a delay, and when Emsworth was ready to play the Unique play- ers, without even putting their unifornfs on, refused to play, claiming it was too dark. A game could have been played without any trouble, but Emsworth thinks Unique did not want to play very bad, and just wanted to have a stroll around their beautiful town.

Superior A. C. claims a game from Harvard A. C. for non-appearance.

WILL SEE ROBINSONS FIRST. Special to the Sunday Preaa. St. ujuiS, iNoveifjber 10. P.

J. Donovan, commander of the fat. Louis Cardinals the past two seasons, is wanted by the American League. Agents of the American League were after Donovan ere the past playing season was over. He was in receipt of numerous flattering offers.

But he spurned them all. "Nothing doing for P. J. as long as the race was on. And I am working for the old league," is the song he chirped to all of Johnson's cohorts who tried to talk business with him.

The agents have since renewed their offers. Thursday night one of Johnson's bowers, a man who has done a lot in placing the American League where it is. ana who ranks second to Charley Co-miskey as being Ban's particular crony; called on Donovan. He let Donovan know In so many words that he could sign with any of four of the American League Clubs and secure the managerial berth in the city he might select. Efforts, the agent said, were still on whereby Pittsburg was to be invaded.

He showed Donovan just how matters stood in Smokevllle, and said that that city, after all, and not New York, might be an eighth member of the American circuit in 1903. He added that if New York was enrolled Donovan could secure that club. Donovan was seen by The Press correspondent at Saturday's Rugby game on the Christian brothers' campus. "Yes, the American League, which has been after me for the past several months, ever since last August, in fact, has just renewed overtures," he declared. "A certain gentleman who represents Mr.

Johnson called on me Thursday night. We had a nice heart-to-heart talk, as he was an old acquaintance and I could talk freely with him. He spoke to me about the American League placing a club in Pittsburg, and said I was the choice for the management. Then, if New York was added, he said I could go there Instead. I'p to date, however, we have not discussed the salary question.

That is the all-Important end of the deal, so until that Is settled I will continue to be a free lace. "I haven't signed with the Robinsons yet for 1903, but can assure the public of St. Louis that before I do business with the American League or any other body I will first consult them. They have treated me finely and I will not make a change before letting them know of it." Donovan's plans for the rest of the present winter are unsettled. He is having a splendid time of it here." and will likely tarry in town until after the holidays.

GOSSIP FROM THE CIRCUIT. Baseball history Is being made in New York this week. The conference at the "Waldorf-Astoria on Thursday between a man from Pittsburg, Ban Johnson and 8. F. Angus, president and owner of the Detroit Club, which seemed to indicate that Detroit will leave the American League to make room for Pittsburg was followed by another remarkable session.

Ban Johnson also attended it and with him were Kilfoyl, who is president of the syndicate's Cleveland team: Ben Shibe. who represents the trust in Philadelphia, where the Athletics won the pennant last season, and last but not least, Harry Pulliam, secretary of the Pittsburg National League team. What Pulliam was doing at the meeting of the enemy is a mystery. It Is known that he was with John T. Brush, of the New York National League team, most of the day and left him to go to the Gilsey House, where the American Leaguers were meeting.

President Dreyfuss. who returnd from Washington yesterday, when ques-tiond about the movements of his assistant, said-that he has not seen Harry nor heard a word from him since last Wednesday afternoon. He laughed at the suggestion that Pulliam was working for the adoption of the peace plan that he proposed here last week or was trying to move the Pirates into the American League. "There are lots of stories afloat these days." was his only comment. There is something mysterious about the doings of the magnates in New ork.

They must have all reached New Tl ork about the same time and may have traveled from Pittsburg on the same train. Johnson and Kilfoyl left Cleveland on Wednesday afternoon and Pulliam started East from here Wednesday evening. Thev may have met at the Union Station! Stranger things have happened. As nlausible as the peace plan seems, It is not believed that Pulliam even suggested turning the Pittsburg club over to the American League. Th present owners of the championship team are opposed to svndicate baseball.

They fought It to the death in the National League and would hardly Jump into the American In which the objectionable feature is in full operation. Tommy Leach, who came over from r-ievelnnd last Wednesday and President XVeyf uss, who returned yesterday from Washington, where he has been since Thursday morning in connection with club affairs, met at the office of the Pittsburg Athletic in the Smith block. The two are on the best of terms. Tommy laughed over the story that he was undecided about where he will play next season. "I did tell a reporter that I could not tell where I would play and that the newspapers seemed to know my plans better than I did myself," said Tommy.

is a fact, though, that I am under contract to play here and no place else. I wrote to Mr. Dreyfuss last week, and he knows where I stand. "The American League fellows have been roasting me almost daily. They say that I was the ringleader in the raid tipon the Pittsburg club and that I did not pay back the money that Somers gave me.

That, of course, is not true. You never see Somers quoted as making these charges. He knows that he received the money and that I was not the ringleader. I suspect a former Pittsburg player of being responsible for the story that Ban Johnson gave out in Chicago charging me with many offenses. I heard 'before this man left town that he was going to try to make a mark of me.

I can hardly believe that Ban Johnson would say that I was at fault. To do so would be to tell a deliberate lie, for he knows the name of the guilty man." Leach would not tell the name of the traitor whom he suspected of bearing false witness against him. Leach came here to see President Drey- A famous New York Hatter makes Colon! 1 Derby S3 Extreme style to be sure, but do you care? So long as you Ret a style that everybody isn't wearing-.

The pedestrians who competed in the six day go as you please race last week at the Third Regiment armory, aand which was won by Nolan, presented themselves in a body before Magistrate Harrison and threatened to bring suit against the regiment for money due them by the promoters of the affair.

The walkers say that officers of the regiment agreed to give them 75 per cent, of the gate receipts, the balance to be turned over to the regiment. When the race was over it was announced that the committee was about in debt, and there was nothing in sight for the walkers. Magistrate Harrison advised them to settle the affair without going to law. MATTHEWSCOMING. Handsome Matty Will Train Here for Flsht With Kennedy.

Matty Matthews, the crack Eastern welter weight, who meets Eddie Kennedy here In a lO-round contest on November 25, wired Manager Billy Corcoran last night to engage training quarters for him at once, as he will arrive here Tuesday morning. accompanied by Tommy West, the Eastern middle weight, who will look after him. Manager Corcoran has selected quarters for Kennedy at Rlverview Park, so that the local boxer will be in the best of shape. Kennedy and Matthews met a year ago at Toronto. Canada, the local lad losing the decision after a fierce battle.

Kennedy thinks he will reverse the decision. Fred Broad will assist Kennedy. Manager Corcoran wants to engage a good preliminary- Kennedy and Matthews have agreed to weigh at 142 pounds at 3 o'clock. RAILROAD CAUSES KENT FANS GRIEF. Kent, November 15.

The Kent Baseball Club and its friends are up in arms over the fact that the Baltimore Ohio Railroad has surveyed four lines across Island Park, every one of which cuts the baseball diamond. The club has put its earnings into these grounds for several years. Aside from the fence and grand stand, the playing field is the finest in Northern Ohio excepting the league grounds In Cleveland there will b2 weeping and wailing among the local fans if a railroad chops its way through the grounds.

The shades of night were fast falling on the classic outlines of College Hill when the demoralized eleven representing the Western "University of Pennsylvania rolled off Geneva Field after a most crushing defeat a the hands of the husky youths of Geneva. Qollege. Thirty to nothing was the score." The Vi." TT. P. men outweighed their opponents, but this was more than balanced by the speed and perfect team work of the Geneva eleven.

At but one time in the game, near the end of the first half, did the Pittsburg eleven make any showing. At this time they secured the ball near the center of the field and by short line bucks carried it to Geneva's ten-yard line. Geneva made a heroic stand and gained the ball. The Geneva men gained in every conceivable manner, end runs, line bucks, tackle plays, trick formations and always netted the required distance and not once were they held for downs. The climax of the game was the brilliant fifty-yard run -of Captain Thompson, with Leach and Mc Anils interfering.

East, Geneva's star fullback, was compelled to leave the game after two minutes' play because of a broken rib received in the Allegheny game last week. Leach, at right tackle, put up his usual good defense, and Wup was unable to gain a foot through him. Schmidt was especially strong in his bucking. Rugh, Wups left halfback, far out-classed his team mates, and no opening seemed too small for him to tackle. Captain Martin, who, by the way, received his early football training at Geneva, was also there with the goods when called upon.
