President Ban John son, of the American League, was much gratified at the decision of the Missouri courts at St. Louis, which denied the re straining Injunction asked against seyeral stars of the new American League team, say6 the Tribune. Concerning the situa tion there, he said: "While I anticipated the decision, still It naturaly Is satisfactory have the mat ter finally decided by the courts. I think our contention at Philadelphia would have been sustained had we brought in other points than the mutuality of the contract. The reserve rule under the National agree ment, I think, will turn the scale again to our favor when we appeal against the Pennsylvania verdict, "When the National agreement was in force a player signed a three years' con tract containing the reserve clause. Be fore he had participated in more than five games of the next championship season he was required by a league ruJe to again sign a contract, also for three years. Thus he was bound perpetually, for the original three years' contract had no chance to terminate. Most of the con tracts signed by National League players now with our league were while the Na tional agreement was in force." Grim Releases Pitcher. SPOKANE, May 7.

OREGOX-PACIFIC TRACK MEET. Eugene Team Xot So Sure About Winning as It Was Short Time Agra. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, Or., May 7. Much Interest Is manifested in the Oregon-Pacific track meet, which will take place Saturday afternoon at Bang's Park. The racetrack at the park has been put into condition, and If there is little rain between now and the day of the meet there should be some faBt time made in some of the eventa Early in the season it was believed that tho meet -would be Oregon's easily enough, but as affairs have developed Oregon will not go Into the meet with the chances all in her favor. Last week the continuous heavy rains made work on the track Impossible, and consequently the men ore not In the condition they should be. Rain, perhaps, has been as prevalent with the competitors from the north, and If so, Oregon can stand cuch a handicap equally as well as Pacific University. Though more serious than the recent bad weather is the loss of Fred Lewis, who was being counted on for the favorite Jn the 100 and 220-yard dashes. lwis is In capacitated with a carbuncle on bis neck, and will not take part In this meet. It Js also greatly feared that he will not be able to make the trip to Seattle, two weeks hence, where his loss will prove a serious handicap. The loss of Lewis will be severely felt, and taken with the con dition of the men, materially weakens the Oregon team. PACIFIC COLLEGE TRY-OUT. Athlete Roy Heater First In Xearly All of the Events.

Diplomatic Corps Prevented the De struction of Santo Domingo. SANTO DOMINGO (Friday), May 2. The Dominican capital capitulated today to the revolutionary forces commanded by General Vasquez, the vice-president of the Republic. President Jlmlnez sought ref uge In the French Consulate and many Government officers obtained shelter In the French and United States Legations. The revolutionary troops entered the cap ital quietly. There was no enthusiasm shown by the population here at the en try of the victorious army. The approach of the revolutionists to the capital was announced after two days' heavy fighting between the Government troops and the forces of General Vasquez, during which many were killed or wounded on both sides. When It became known here that General Vasquez threat ened to attack Santo Domingo, the United States Minister, William F. Powell, as dean of the diplomatics corps, requested the Dominican Government to Inform him regarding the arrangements made to pro tect the lives and property of foreign ers here, adding that in case no precau tions were taken he would consider It hta duty to take such measures to provide for their safety as the situation demanded. The nature of the reply of the Government was not made public. General Alejandro Wosgll was appointed Minister of War at this time. Intense excitement prevailed here among the population and In Government circles, when the news of the approach of tho revolutionary army became generally known. When the revolutionists were sighted. Minister Powell called a meeting of the diplomatic and consular bodies at the United States Legation for the pur pose of deciding on the best means of pro tecting life and property, and to prevent injury to noncombatants In case of an as sault being made o nSanto Domingo, with the result that a delegation composed of the United States Minister, the French Minister, M. De Jouax, the Spanish Con sul, Dr. Perera Blesa, the German Consul, Herr von Kroslgk, the Italian Consul, SIgnor Cammblaso, and the British Con sul, Mr. Gosling, was appointed to await upon General Vasquez and Inform him that no attack could be made on the cap ital, under the rules of war, until duo no tice had been given to the diplomatic and consular corps here, A messenger was then dispatched to General Vasquez, asking him to select the time and place for an Interview with tho delegation. The messenger returned with the reply that the revolutionary General had appointed the following morn ing for the .Interview, adding that In the meanwhile he would suspend all hostili ties If the Government would agree to adopt the same course. The revolutionists, however, already practically had possession of the city, and the diplomatic and consular delegation, when It met General Vasquez, the next day. May J. could only offer Its good offices, with the view of Inducing General Vasquez to send a committee to Santo Do mingo to arrange with the Government the terms for the formal surrender of the capital. The General agreed to this. Later the same day, however, the Hay tlan Minister, L. Borno, and the Spanish Minister communicated to the revolution ary commander a message to General Vasquez from President JImlnez consent ing to the drawing up of a treaty of capit ulation which was to provide a full guar antee for the safety of the officials, em ployes and defenders of the Government as well as for the security of personal property. The President and the Minis ters, It was further agreed, were not to leave the country before the submission of all the authorities of all the different divisions of Santo "Domingo had been re ceived and all political prisoners were to be liberated. , The revolutionary army entered Santo Domingo at 11 A. M. the same day, Friday, and took possession of the government buildings. The form of the new government of Santo Domingo has not yet been decided upon. Town Sacked hy Rebels. NEW YORK, May 7.

Work on tho free swimming bath-house Is advancing rapidly at Supple's boat yard, and It -will be completed on or about June 1, which will be about the time the swimming season will open. While the original plans have been generally followed, a few changes have been made to give strength and durabil ity to the structure. All the pontoons will be solid throughout. Two long pon toons 12x100 feet, built very solidly, will support the sides, and the front pontoon, on which the house will stand, will be 28x54. One of the long pontoons Is near ly finished. There are bulkheads extend ing through It. and it Is braced solidly. The house pontoon has been started. The second one Is laid out, and will soon be completed. Tho house pontoon has been started. Heavy planks are used In all these floats. The house will be built of matched sheathing, so as to stand the twisting from the action of the -waves and swell of the river. It Is proposed to build the roof like that of a houseboat, with a slight Incline from the center toward the sides, to drain off the water. Around the edges there will be wire railing, so the root will be a kind of observatory on which spectators may congregate and watch tho bathers. All the pontoons will be completed within about 10 days, and then the upper portion, the house and the long rows of lockers will go up quickly, when the pur poses of the public-spirited citizens who started the agitation for this free swimming-bath plant will be realized. Those who have contributed money toward the cost may be assured that the structure Is to be no temporary affair, but they can see from what has already been done that it Is being built to last. FOUXDATIOX IS STARTED. Addition to the Sunnynide School house to Be Put Up at Once. The contractor has commenced exca vating for the foundation of the addition to the Sunnyslde schoolhouse, on the west side of the present building. Work on the addition can go forward -without in terrupting the school. The present build ing will not be moved or disturbed In any way until after vacation. This early, start will be greatly facilitate the comple tion of the addition. It will probably be ready by the Fall opening. Very little. If anything, can be done toward the new buildings at Sellwood and Woodlawn until after the close of school In June, as both have to be changed. At Sellwood the present building will be moved to one side of the grounds and four rooms built on the other side, thus providing eight "rooms. But the building cannot be moved while school Is In ses sion. At Woodlawn also the old school house will be part of the new structure It Is proposed to build there this year. It will have to be changed somewhat. This building will be a 12-room structure. It Is understood that plans for the Sellwood and Woodlawn buildings will be ready, so that contracts can be let and work start ed on them as soon as school closes. Perhaps some work may be done on the foundations before that time. OPPOSED TO WIDEXIXG. Remonstrances Filed Against Mak ing: Union Avenue 80 Feet "Wide. A remonstrance against the proposed widening of Union avenue to SO feet be tween Alberta street and Dekum avenue has been filed by a few of the property- js Brewed from carefully selected baney and hops never permitted to leave the brewery SSii5HgaOfl.r'f' MUl',i'vyimH'.'A:rw.J sasss-usS owners. It Is set forth that the widening would work a hardship and would be 'un necessary. Whether the opposition Js strong enough to put a stop to the proceeding remains to be seen. Until recently It had been understood that there would be very little. If any, opposition to the widening, and that It would have fair sailing, but it would be an unusual thing If there should be no opposition to such an extensive im provement. The widening of Union ave nue extends nearly a mile, and for many years It has been the hope- of that dis trict that It would be widened and then Improved. It is a hardship for the owner of a lot to lose 10 feet off the front, but those who have been working to got Union avenue widened say that the loss of this strip will be moro than compensated for in having a fine street corresponding with that part south from Alberta street. The reason given for the widening Is that Union avenue Is the main street, extend ing through to Woodlawn, and If it is to carry tho bulk" of travel, as it will for a number of years. It should be made wider than the ordinary 60-foot street. STEPIIEXS SCHOOL LIBRARY. Principal Hndley Says It Will Con tain A boat 1200 Volumes. The bids for furnishing the grammar school library for the Stephens School are expected to be In by next Saturday. Principal Hadley furnished a list of the books wanted, numbering from 1000 to 1200, to the various publishing houses some time ago, and the contract for sup plying them will probably go to the low est bidder. Great care has been exercised in the selection of these books, and a list has been made up that will be popular and In structive to the pupils.

Up to April K there had been Intro duced Into tho House of Representative 13.67C bills, and Into the United States Senate 5260 bills. It is possible that somi of these were In effect duplicate meas ures; but making ample allowance foi possibilities of this kind, it Is safe tc say that already at this session of Con gress there have been introduced more than 15,000 bills asking for some form ol Congressional decision. It is too obvious to need argument that only a fraction of theso bills can ever be considered by the Senate and -the House. We doubi whether one measure In 10 ever gets be yond the House or Senate calendar, and we do not think we should be extrava gant In saying that not one in 20 Is advanced that far. This would not be because of any disposition to sidetrack desired legislation, but simply because It Is humanly Impossible for Congress tc take up and act upon the great volume of business which is annually thrust upon it. This being the case. It becomes necessary that there should be some species of discrimination made. Some measures are important and others un important, and It Is essential that the former should be given preference. One would suppose from a good deal thai Mr. Cushman said that. If he were Speaker of the House of Representatives, or If Its rules -were as he would have them, the calendar would be cleared off every measure would be taken ur in turn, and one bill would receive just the same consideration as another. Theo retically, this may seem to be a hlghlj desirable condition; in practice It is en tirely Impossible. If each bill were taker up In turn and the claims of each mem ber to have his bill considered In Its order were always recognized the result would be a government deadlock, abso lutely necessary laws would not b passed, while the time and attention 01 Congress would be frittered away bj debates over trivial and unimportant matters.
