O. VraBcklae Awarded to Laa Baeoa. -After one of tha moat prolonged and (terestlng meetings aver held by tha tew York State Base Ball League, tha magnates at 1 o'clock wiped tha wat from their broad, manly ana overheated brows And adopted the! cueauia aiinusi exacuy i orjginmiy 'framed by president Farrell. There was no change made in the opening attractions and as a consequence -will be the opponents of the Barons at the opening: of tha sea-sen on Hay 7 and tha Jagulettes will line up against Klttredge'a Old Toms, alias Kittens. Aside from tha difficulty over the adoption of the schedule -the meeting; enlivened by a confab over the J.

A O. franchise, the disputed question being finally closed by the admission to the league of Louis Bacon, the new owner of right of tight of way, serfs and chattels known as the J. G. base ball club. The meeting was called to-order by president Farrell at 6:30 In the afternoon la the private dining room at the Sterling, the clubs being represented as follows: League President John H.

Farrell. Wllkes-Barre President James S. Monks, directors M. M. Helatand and A.

E. Featherston, manager Abel Le-stte. Scran ton President Bdward Coleman, ex-president JohnsW. Barnes, James Coleman, manager Klttredge. Binghamton President F.

F. Hammond, manager Michael A Roach, Syracuse --'President George Nv Kuntsch-p: Utlca secretary-treasurer Hayes, director D. M. Johnson, manager Charles ipooley. JK Albany-i-Presldent C.

M. "Winchester, VvJce president Dr. H. B. Warner.

Troy President William Babbit, manaier John J. O'Brien. A G. President Louis Bacon. The first question taken up was the disposition of the J.

A G.sfranchlse. Mr, Bacon was admitted to tha meeting to state his case and it was developed that he 'was without proper credentials showing that he was the owner of the club. It also developed that Paterson, N. was ajtto an applicant for the franchise. The discussion of the subject was at one time quite heated, but it was finally decided at 6:30 to take a recess and allow Mr.

Bacon to get Into communication with the president of the traction company In Gloversvllle, who had transferred the franchise to him. During the recess tha visiting magnates were the guests of the Wllkes-Barre club owners at an elaborate banquet served In the main dining room. When the meeting reconvened at 8:80 Mr. Bacon, presented a telegram from President Hays of tha Tonda, Johns-tows A- Gloversvllle Traction Company which stated that Mr. Bacon had acquired the franchise by a bona fide purchase.

The transfer was at once ratified and the adoption of a schedule taken up. It developed at once that each magnate had prepared a schedule of his own, giving his elub the best of everything without any regard to the rights ef others. For some time it seemed a if an agreement could, not be reached, but after Mr. Farrell had explained the. schedule, the number ef miles which each-club would travel, ete.the schedule as Jbad drafted It was adopted, the-few, changes being, merely an exchange of games between the various clubs.

According to 'the schedule Wllkes-Barre will open tha season at home with Utlca and close at bene with Scran too. Taken as a whole It ts good schedule for Wllkes-Barre, tke club having good dates at home and abroad. A pleasant incident of the meeting iW the greeting extended to John W. Barnes, the retiring president 'and a forsier half owner of the Scranton elub.VThe magnates realised that the re-establishment of the' national game in Scranton In 1(04 tn Wllkes-Barre In DOS was dua to tha efforts of Mr. Barnes and his resignation was therefore accepted with alneere regret and he was nnanlmoualy elected an honorary member of tha league with all the rights and powers of as active member.

After the schedule had been adopted President Farrell announced that the nmpfre staff far coming season would ba Cusack, who was on this eir; cult In liOt and In the Eastern League In 1ST; Brady, with the Cotton States League the past two years and with the THE TWO TOMS 26 28 So. Main St. Wilkes-Barre, Pa. -V-V i UJJ, LETT Store 43 EAST MARKET STREET "NICK" CARTER PROVED TO EE WHOLE SHOW PHILADELPHIA CRITICS SPEAK HIGHLY OF FORMER STAR'S PERFORMANCE! The Philadelphia papers yesterday gave great credit to "Nick" Carter, the former State League Star, for his, performance against the Philadelphia Nationals. The following are samples: Philadelphia Inquirer" Nlck" Carter, whom Connie Mack dug up out of tha New York State League, proved to ba the whole show and a side addition as well In the opening function between the Athletics and Phillies yesterday afternoon at tha Philadelphia Ball Park.

Tha Athletics won by 5 to 0. The youngster with the dime novel name of Carter had the National Leaguers completely at his mercy, allowing but two hits, both of them Grant and not allowing a Philly to reach third base during the performance. His work wag the distinct feature of the open log ciasn. "With Richie on the slab foe the Phillies and Carter for the Athletics at the start It looked like a foregone conclusion to the 9108 spectators as to which team would draw first blood In the lnterclub series. It looked, like the National Leagurers all but it wawi rignt nere wnenene wise ones were Carter pitched glme which would have gone down in league hlBtory as one to be remembered tod the championship struggle bSfn ojrr Ho had everything which the PhW could not hit, and up to the seventh inning Murray's men had not madethe semblance of a bingo.

Grant is tfiat inning, clouted one up against the right field wall for two and again in the ninth the ex-Harvard lad doubled to right field. But these two safeties were the only ones rung up against The rest of the heavy-hltttng Magees, Tiluses, "Bransf ields, Knabcs and Doolins were like infants before Mr. Carter's mystifying shoots." Philadelphia Press "On and on fcrm the Phillies were expected to win, but they wero confronted by an Insurmountable' obstacle in tho person of 'Nick Carter, a youth who unknown to national fame until he was trotted out by his manager as 'a dark horse. Carter last year pitched for the Syracuse. N.

Y. team, and he figured so little with the Athletics in the South that when Umpire Bob Ems-lie announced Carter and Smith aa the Athletics' battery, the 1908 fana and fanesses present had to wipe the cobwebs off tbeir memory to remember Just where they ever heard tha name outside of a dime novel. "Carter acted like a -veteran. His every motion indicated that he was master of the situation, and he was really the star figure of the game from first to last He used the 'saliva ball' almost exclusively and so peculiar wero the twists taken by tha horsehlda that only one man. Grant was able to send It Into safe territory.

The ex-Harvard student twice dropped the ball ijjto right field for twoboggera He was the only Quaker to get to second base during the afternoon, and that was Grant's limit too, for when he started for Collins station, Knn.be hit to Carter, who Jumped Into the air, pulling down a high bounding grounder snd coolly tossed the runner out at third base. Carter gave four bases on bails, but toffee of these were harmless, as each was followed by a doubla play." BASKET BALL A fast and Interesting game of basket ball wae played at the Y. M. C. A.

He gave Curley Watsor. the English middleweight, such a beating that tha Brlton'a seconds threw up the sponge In tha fourth round, during a mlx-up which could only have ended with their man on his back. They met at Catch weights and Lewis scored so many knockdowns that the count was lost.

Although there was talk of Stanley Ketehel and Billy Papka coming to gether In a ten-round bout In Milwau kee next month, there la no chance of tha men meeting before tha latter part of June or tha first weak tn July. Papke's right hand, which ba Injured during his contest with Hugo Kelly a few weeks ago, la worse than at first supposed, and tils manager, T. E. Jones, has made up his mind to take no chances. Tha ten round batttla between Jack Johnson, tha colored heavyweight, and Jim Barry of Chicago, which was to have been decided at tha big Hippodrome in Milwaukee on April 10, has been postponed for a week in order to allow Johnson more time in which to prepare for the contest.

Packey wa Introduced to Jim after the show, and the lattT as usual peddled a bunch of a bull in his way.

But without kidding, Jim is the most popular fighter that ever left California, and he knows how to talk to -them when he (rets out there. He played -left field for the old Alcaxars out there when he was a young fellow, and from that went into the boxing game, where he-made his reat rep.
