DR. TALMAGE’S TOUR!
THRO’ ITALY, GREECE, EGYPT
AND THE HOLY LAND.
Two Illustrated fetters Weekly, De¬
scriptive of tile Journey—The
- News’ Latest Enterprise.
On the 30th of October, Rev. T.
DeWitt Talmage embarked on the
fast steamer City of Paris for a
three m onihn’ journey through Italy,
Greece, Egypt and the Holy Land.
Mr. Tnlmage’s principal object in
making this trip is to have a chance
to inspect- the places and „ scenes
which will be embraced in his forth¬
coming work,‘The Life of Christ,”
for which his publishers are said to
have guaranteed Mr. Talmage $22,-
000. They vvilj also pay all the ex¬
penses of the trip, which will cost
ior Mr. Talmage and his family
$5,000.
no. TAJ.UAGB.
The cost of the trip to the News
and Sun will be somewhat less than
that sum, but still it will be consider¬
able. Louis Klopseh, well known iu
newspaper circles as Dr. Taltnage’s
right hand man and business agent,
with Mre. Klopseh, accompanies the
Doctor throughout this journey, for
which the most elaborate and
thorough preparations have been
made. We have made a contract
with Mr. IClopsGh for two letters
weekly, giving a graphic and connect
ted account of the journey, these let¬
ters to be illustrated by engravings
made by Mr, Klopseh, on theground.
The first of these letters, which will
run through three months, will ap¬
pear on Thursday morning, and if
there are no delays in the mails or
otherwise will appear regularly there¬
after 08 Sunday and Wednesday
mornings.
Mr. Klopseh is a journalist of un¬
usual ability, and these letters, be¬
ing written oji the ground and on
matters which interest every man,
woman and child in a Christian
community, and illustrated from
photographs embracing a wide range
of interesting subjects, should not
be missed by anyone.
To has been with some difficulty
that this arrangement lias been
made, but we are satisfied that our

by the old league, or stopping to inquire how
far its course has been prompted by selfish
interests, the players player* still believe tin hat it
days days of of usefulness hare gone, that it ha
fallen fallen into into the toe hands nanus of of men men who wno look iook more more
to their personal interests than to the good of

money at the sacrifice of the dignity of the
game and at the expense of the player’s rights
as a man, they wont too far.
The Sale of Flayers.
A system which contemplates the sale of a
player's future services is too iniqhitous and
un- ■American to stand, however dear to the
hearts of at the magnates. The league com-
mittei has taken pains to point ont how
much the players owe to the league, but
failed to mention how much they themselves
owe to the players.
The ease with which they skim over the
origin and intention of the reserve rule and
its supposed present necessity would be re¬
freshing were it not so evidently intended to
mislead. Who and what made that rule
necessary? Was it not the unscrupulous van¬
dalism of the managers themselves and their
unwillingness to trust one another? As its
author, A. G. Mills, has said, it was intended
to take the robber manager by the throat
and make him been his hands off the playei erg
in association clubs. The power this ’Ole
gave wa ed in the most most m mer ercenai ry way,
and the assertion ertion made made by by the tl committee, uni I
that no player has ©vfar been transferred
without his conseni. is brazenly false.
Compulsory Consent.
Do they call it consent when a player must
submit or get ont of baseball? Did Bnffinton
and id Gunning consent? Were not both Mor-
rill I and Wise sold and the fact published
before before either either was was spoken spoken to to or or knew knew anything an

zein, or this same precious trio, Glasscock,

The assertion that the new league proposes
to transfer pioyere-swttlunU, willful their consent is
either ;her u a mistake mistake or or a a « misstatement and
when the the term term of of his his contract has expired he

tract and the full salary written in it; nothing
which e..:roaches upon the player's natural
rights and when Ire goes from one club to

price is passed.
The League Violated Contracts,
The statement Jknt the contract violated In use
siupp 18ST lias never been by the
league in letter or spirit is another piece of
characteristic* effrontery. The understand¬
ing betweon clubs and players was violated
when the league failed, by its conniva vance, a«
