E. Twitched Says it is Impossible to Bring Team to the DECLARES BALL SEASON CLOSED. In an open letter to the public, published in the Las. Vegas Record, Col. R.

E. Twltchell; the base ball magnate, and manager, of that city, says that he has cancelled all contracts for future games and declares the season, as far aa Las Vegas Is concerned, closed. He also says that It Is impossible now for him to bring an all-star team to the territorial fair at Albuquerque. His letter to the public reads as follows: To the Public: The base ball season has closed. All contracts for games have been cancelled.

This action ha become necessary owing to the board ot regents of the Normal University notfying me that the Raynolds field can not be used on Sunday. In this connection, and that tny proposition may be clearly understood, I desire the public to understand that I was told by the president and secretary of the board to go ahead and make dates for Sunday games during the month of September. Base ball is not possible Iu this town unless Sunday games are played. About 85 per cent of the people favor Sunday base ball, but Lie other 15 per cent think different and control Raynolds field. I do not care to have any controversy with people who, though doubtless actuated by the most Christian motives can note' a distinction between Sunday In August and Sunday in September.

At any those controlling Raynolds field were perfectly willing to permit Sunday games in July and August for a money consideration, but in September, that is, since Sunday last it has been found out that the day cannot be given to base ball, particularly on Raynolds field. 1 am willing to let it go at that. At any rate I do not care fur any controversies, the outcome serving no good end to persons Interested, and bound to create a bad feeling. This action of the board makes the taking of an all star team to the territorial far an impossibility. A large portion of the cash necessary for that project was to be raised from games ilayed on Sunday.

Next year we will have a ball park and race track which can be used for Sunday ball playing. The season, short as it has been, has demonstrated that base ball can be had here all next summer at a very small expense. Yours truly, R. E. TWITCHELL.

Though eleventh-hour developments may necessitate a change In some one of the minor places, it la reasonably certain that the ticket will be made up as follows: For Governor B. B.

Odell, Jr. For Lieutenant Governor George R. Sheldon, of New York. For Secretary of Stated-John T. Me Donough, of Albany For Attorney General Henry B.

Coman, of Madison county. For Control ler--Nathan L. Miller, of Cortland county. For State Treasurer John O. Wlck-aer, of Erie.

For State Engineer Edward A. Bond, of Jefferson county. For Associate Justice of the Court of Appeals William E. Werner, The make-up of tbe state ticket being practically settled the atention of the delegates la centered on questions over which there Is more parly contention and a livelier publle interest the indorsement of President Roosevelt for tbe republican nomination In 1904, me indorsement pi uis policy wiiu re V. 1.11.1.

KM. k. 4 declaration In favor of hts itand on. tSe question of Cuban' TpWltJf Talks with the delegate on the field indicate a decided difference of opln Ion on these questions and it is predicted that there will be some lively debates on the convention floor when the subjects are Introduced for consideration and action. While some prominent leaders are openly antagonistic to such a course, it is generally believed that the convention will indorse the president as the "logical candidate for renomlnatlon." To Edward W.

Lauterbach has been entrusted the task of framing tentative planks on the trust and reciprocity la-sues. It is difficult to forecast Just what stand the convention will take on these two questions. Tbe difference of opinion probably will result in a conipromise. There is a decided opposition to an indorsement of the president's reciprocity plan. Some of the leaders are for leaving all mention of Kthe question out of the resolutions.

while otners are In favor of dealing with it only In a general way. The convention will be called to order at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning In Convention hall.
