Opposed to Mixed Contests.

The official attitude of tha Amateur Ath letlo Union In reference to the proposal that amateur and professional be permitted to oompeta in track and' field competition under apecial aanotlon is explained br Alfred J. LIU, president of tha anion, as follows i "The success of tha Amateur Athletto Union and Its steady growth for the past twenty-five years can be attributed for the most part to the strict adherence to' the policy of segregating the amateur from, the professional athlete. The Idea could only originate In the minds of those who seek something for nothing, and In coneotlon with this matter It is evident that tha amateur athlete haa never had anything, and can never have anything, gained by competing with a professional Through Pan Lave of Sport. "Tha alms and purposes of each are at dlsttnot varlanoe with each other, The amateur competes through a pure love of ths game, and ths honors that, naturally ancrue to him by reason of his' suroessrs, while the primary object of the professional, on the other hand, Is the aoqulrement of money through hie professional talents. How anyone can reconcile these two attitudes is beyond my comprehension and tha status of the two fields of athletics at the present time la sufficient proof of tha strength at their relative positions.

"The only motives that could be presented that would Justify competition between swia-teur and professional athletes would be a desire for honors on ths one hand and money on the other, am) this could never be countenanced by the Amateur Athletic Union without repudiating the very principles of the organisation. Never under any circumstances could the Amateur Athletic Union ba justified in giving Its sanation or approval to any athletic feature where money would be held out as an Inducement In tha of a prise," Baseball "Want" Ads, To one not familiar with the vernacular nf baseball, the classified want columns of a baseball paper contain some astonishing statements. Recently a player advertising for position announced that he had spent ths last three years with California out-luwa. Another yearning to break into the blr leagues, proclaims that a salary Is no object, which ought to help his case considerably. A left-handed Indian and white promoters for a negro league are requested to open correspondence.

FEDERAL LEAGUE HEAD Gilmore Says Another Raid Was Made Sunday, But Gives No Names, Chicago, Jan.

Two "stars" of the Nationals, bs said, had bosh signed fur Chi cago In the new organisation, but their names wsre not announced, Ths cruolcal meeting had left the Federals strongsr than ever, (lllmors aald.

TWO FIRES AT 'ANDERSON Itciuilnir Family ItoMldenre Pmtroytxl, With Ixmm of $8,000.

Anderson, Tnd Jan. 18. Only the heroic work of the city firemen saved from destruction the llennlng-groBn house, on Bouth Pesrl street, today, when the Hennlnf family residence of three etorleg adjoining the Kreenhouee) was practically destroyed by fire. The entire fire flghtlm? gparatus of the elly was 'alld Into action because of ihe distance from watr mains. The home will have to he rebuilt.

The household effects were carried out by nelKhhors. The loss Is estimated et 13,000, partly covered by Insurance. Fire was discovered In the grocery on Third street shortly after 3 o'clrwk this morning-. The Bremen msnSKed to keep the flames inside the building. The loss to the stock Is estimated at IBOfl.

The marnatsa rather than take a chance of losing men are adopting a Conciliatory policy and making any reasonable oonrfi-elone, it would bp em. Thie does not mean that thpy will etand for downright "holdups." They couldn't afford to let the players become too brash In thlr salnrlen demands, for to do so would be to open the door to endless trouble. Just ss soon as it became known that Smith or Jonea had cluhded an rxhorbttant salary out of hts employer, Brown and Uref-n would Insist on tha seme and there would be a grand row all around. The way things are working out now, the players' who remain In the organisation will reap some real benefits from tha Federals and the Baseball Players' fraternity. Ana looks es though the "outlaw although they will lessen the profits of the magnates to some ettent, will really prove a brvon to the whole structure of baeeball In the long run.

In order for the benefits to be laetlng. however, the Federals must remain strong enough to offer a haven for dieantlfifled players. If the new leagua blows up. It probably will not take long for the American and National to work bark to the former wage scale. The fratrnttys progress, however, is not dependent on the euccees of the "outlaws," fnr It Is unlikely that there will be any backsliding from the Cincinnati conference.

The players have shown that their organization really Is a power to be rerk-oned with and the magnates will hesitate a long time before fooling with It. playing the game by the founder of the school. Each applicant will have to aland a test to prove that he Is worth while training. The test applies to the body rather than tha head. When Otto Knabe brought along a certified check for 17,000 and showed It to his friends around Philadelphia there was an Instant change of opinion about the stability of the new league.

Wonderful what changes a lltta money will bring about. The loHses of the' Phillies will put that team completely out of it, even If they do not loie any more ptayers. Catcher Killlfer alone makes a difference between a winner and lover for the Quakers, With Otto Knabe gone from the Infield and Ad going from tha pitching staff, Dooin will have to depend on youngetera to fill In j.he vaoanulea for the coming season, and it la always an uncertainty about a youngster making good. The Federals have not shown any pity on the Philadelphia club for some reason or another, The members of the Phttlie tesm evidently were In a etate of disloyalty when the opportunity earn to them, and they did not overlook the good money of fers, ir ine rn ue svers naa a Keren a little with the old club they would no doubt have been ablt to get more' money than they did for President Baker would have been willing to meet the conditions A report from Baltimore 1s to tha effect thst the Internstlonal lgue It to he made a major affair and Washington given the jersey uity irancnua.
