EVERYTHIN SfWORT WHILE I SPORT IS GATHERED HERE fcELLEY SIGNS A RENVILLE STAR Fastest Semiprofessional in the Northwest Secured for Minneapolis Club. "Tute" Thompson, third baseman of the fast 1905 semiprofessional baseball team of Renville, has been sigued for the millers by Manager Kelley.

Thompson had been signed by the Burlington, Iowa, team, but Ned Egan, having a surplus of inflelders, turned Thompson over to Kelley in a deal closed yesterday afternoon. Thompson will probably be tried in the shortstop position. He played third base for Ren- vlUe, and was, last season, regarded as one of the fastest semiprofessional players of the northwest. As a third baseman he had the reputation of never letting a batter get away a bunt, and his throwing arm is pronounced, by those who know, to be of the rifle character. Thompson also made a splendid showing as a batter, and, taken all around, may prove to be a find.

His signing is an experiment, but he will be given a trial on the training trip. He has quite a little Indian blood in his veins, and baseball sharps who have seen him at work unite In declaring that he Is a natural player and under Kelly's coaching can be developed Into one of the fastest youngsters on the circuit. He will report at Burlington, Monday, with the other members of the 1906 Minneapolis team. ATTILLA GETS BOLD IN GRDHN'S BEHALF Journal Special Service. New York, March 22.Prof.

Attilla, who Is looking after the interests of Fred Gruhn, the English champion wrestler, is hot on Tom Jenkins' trail.

GOTCH MAY GET ON WITH TOM JENKINS Journal Special Service, Kansas City, March 22.Frank Gotch has signed a contract to- wrestle any man the Missouri Athletic club may select on a date not later than April 25.

The club is willing to accept the first part of the proposition, but whether the bet is to be made depends upon Gotch. MINNEAPOLIS jdUfcNAL.

I -March -e DOPE OF THE DAY -SCHLAFLY, Washington's new second baseman, is making a favorable Impression. OLL1E PICKERING reported to Columbus last night for the season, the first man on the ground. JIMMY DYGERT, one of the Athletics' young pitchers, is said to have mastered the "spit" ball. GKORGE TEBEAU believes he has a line on Phyle that will land the player in the American association this season. CORRIDAN would be a big help to the Toledo twirling staff if he decides to cut out the outlaw league.

GIULLO BEGINS to believe Krueger was right about Lark and the lad may be with the mud hens this season. DIRECTOR CONANT of Boston is confident that' the young Ashland pitcher, Billy McCarthy, will make good. PITCHER KARGER, who Is to be given a trial by the Pittsburg club, spent the winter in Mexico, where he played ball. PITCHER DINEEN has not yet signed with Boston, and it is again rumored that Jes3e Tannehill is still unsigned. FRED CLARKE is having a rather hard time in assembling a strong catching staff.

His latest recrait at the Hot Springs camp is a receiver named Huston, from Winfleld, Kan. DANNY SHAY, second baseman of the St. Louis cardinals last season, is running a cigar store in Stockton, but is likely to get into the game before the season grows old. MANAGER McALBER, of the St. Louis browns, has decided to let Tom Jones start the season at first base, altho Nordyke, the first baseman from the Tacoma club, has shown quite well in practice.

CLARKE GRIFFITH has a wealth of third basemen. He has Conroy, Yeager, Morlarty, the Toledo man and Laporte, the hard hitter from Buffalo. There is. a posisble chance Laporte may crowd Williams off second base. THE New York correspondents with the giants at Memphis have gone into ecstacies over Fitzgerald, the young catcher.

He is well educated, and was recently married to an Albany CLAUDE ROSSMAN, the new first baseman of the Clevelands, put in a busy winter. He played ball with a team of American professionals in Cuba, and on his return played indoor ball in Albany, IT MAY BE two or three weeks before George Browne will he able to Join the giants for practice work. was about to leave California for the east when his wife became ill, and a slow recovery is predicted by the physicians. BEN KOEHLER, one of the new outfielders of the St. Louis browns, is the old football player who was once "with the South Bend team.

"Koehler Is as good a fielder as any man in the American league," already declares McAleer. IT IS NOT generally known that Owen McAleer, the mayor of Los Angeles, is a brother of the St. Louis baseball manager. The Los Angeles official Is having all kinds of trouble in office, most of the local papers being antagonistic to his way of running things. PITCHER McFARLAND, of the St.

Louis Nationals, attributes his had' showing last season totoo strenuous spring training. McFarland says he believes the teams go south too soon. "About two weeks' training before the season opens is all they need," he declares. DE HAAS AND STANLEY Robison do not like southpaws, believing they are too unreliable. McCloskey, the new Louis manager, holds a contrary view.

McCloskey is giving his men only light work in the south. He does not believe in vigorous spring training. EVERY CLUB in the England league has strong backing this season. The league has a compact circuit of cities ranging in population from 40.000 to 130.000, or more than 600,000 for the eight cities. This should be a banner year for this modest member of the baseball family.

SIGNS OF THE approaching baseball season are multiplying. The first score has made its appearance umpires are buckling on their armor fans are filing their voices in less than a month the two major league championship campaigns, will have started. So runs the world away. UMPIRE JACK SHERIDAN, of the American league, who a year ago was a proponent of the foul-strike rule, now expresses regret that changes in the rules were not made to increase batting, and thinks the public will tire of lowscore games before the end of another season. There will be others.

THE MONTREAL CLUB is endeavoring to cut George Lachance's salary from $500 to $230 per month. Lachance has appealed to J. H. Farrell, secretary of the National association, and his decision is being Impatiently awaited. Montreal tried hard to sell Lachance, but got no satisfactory offers.

THE GREAT MISTAKE now before the clubs is the carrying of twice as many men as they can -use, in this way forcing hardships on the weaker clubs. Star players who make good should receive handsome rewards in the way of salaries from the money practically thrown away on counterfeits touted as wonders by people who know little of the game. Fewer players and larger salaries should be the motto of the major league ball clubs. WESTERN BOWLERS BUMPED EASTIRN Outcome of Bowling Differences Is a Matter of Doubt. Journal Special Service.

Louisville, March 22.Eastern bowlers were given another jolt by the westerners yesterday, when at the third and final session of the American bowling congress the 1907 tournament went to St. Louis by a vote of 0 2to 44. St. Paul, never a strong candidate, received eleven votes on the first ballot and ten of them switched to St. Louis on the second.

R. H. Bryson of Indianapolis, who ran the tournament there in 1903 in such able manner, was unanimously elected president, thus breaking away from the precedent of the previous years that the president must come from the tournament city. His record at Indianapolis and the fact that he is a practical bowler, had much influence on the voting. The other three candidates, Al Baltz of Philadelphia, C.

Kauffman of Cincinnati and C. Ebbets of Brooklyn withdrew. The rest of the officers elected are as follows: First vice president, C. J. Kaufman, Cincinnati second vice president, A.

C. Anson, Chicago third vice president, F. W. Gosewitch, St. Paul secretary, Samuel Karpf, Dayton, Ohio treasurer, Frank Pasdeloup, Chicago.

Executive committee, J. W. McCormick, Toledo W. Wette, Wheeling E. Meyers, Washington G.

A. Metzger, Pittsburg P. Hills. Cleveland W. A.

Terry, Milwaukee J. H. Haager, Louisville B. Joseph, Louisville" M. A.

Phillips, St. Louis. The outcome was far from satisfactory to the eastern men, but at a meeting held at New York the leaders determined to take no action and probably will call a meeting in the east to consider the matter of secession. Should this come out the A. B.

C. would become a middle western association. Other happenings at the, meeting were the adoption of the union label for all official printing and a decision to award medals for world's records at the annual session of the congress. BOWLING COMMERCIAL LEAGUE. POWERS MERCANTILE COMPANY.

The rinclpal were Larry Temnel of Cincinnati and a local welterweight named Gunther.

It was generally expected that Temple would dispose of Gunther easily, but to the surprise of all the spectators Gunther ridiculously outclassed the OMo man from the tap of the gong in the first round. The boat was scheduled to go twenty rounds, but in the thirteenth Temple pretended to be unable to continue and allowed the referee to count him out. The sports were taken back at the result, for they had wagered 5 to 1 that would win. They lost many thousands of on Temple.

BASEBALL FANS "STDNG" WITH IMITATION PASSES Commercial club society ig on its alabaster ear with excitement over the latest club joke. It seems to have been a case of everybody bit but father, and he was busy in the basement letting others in on the ground floor.

Since the Minneapolis Baseball and Athletic association came out an aristocratic directorate composed of such captains of industry, politics and public opinion as Walter Boutell, Wallace G. Nye, E. G. Potter, Alderman J. H.

Van Nest and E. J. Westlake, all prominent in Commercial club affairs, the certain sportively inclined members have begun to cultivate the closest possible acquaintance with the new officials. The end in view in most cases has been the hope of securing a season pass for every game on the hopie grounds. Requests came thick ancL'fist and the directors longed for relief.

Relief came in the form of Manager "Mike" Kelly and a big package of annuals admitting bearer to the grand stand and grounds. Armed with these, the directors waited for applications, but not long. Under pledges of great secrecy and special favor, the passes were doled out and slipped quietly into divers breastpockets next to anxiously beating hearts. The favored one generally felt so good and generous that he proposed a libation to generosity, or at least a smoke. As a result, the directors have been living on the fat of the land.

Cigars have bulged from every pocket. Yesterday, however, in the seclusion of his private office, one recipient of a pass carefully drew it forth to gloat in secret over his great prize, with pride he read the magic lines which were to open to him all the doors of the.baseball grounds. Then he noticed at the bottom a line in smaller print as follows: Not good after May 1, 1906." "Stung," he roared and rushed to the 'phone to try to silence the scandal. The directors are passing ont no more passes, but are now making a second collection of toll from their victims. Most Attractive Display Clever Hart, Schaffner Marx Clothing.
