Trouble In the form of a powerful new outlaw organization, will loom large on the baseball horizon tomorrow, when the new Union league opens Its champion ship season. The new league will fur nish opposition to the National league in Brooklyn, to the American league in Washington and to both of the major leagues In Philadelphia. The Eastern league will find the out laws a competitor in Baltimore. The Union league opening tomor row will find Philadelphia at Brook lyn. Baltimore at Elizabeth, Wash ington at Reading and Paterson at Wilmington. The season will extend to September 19, giving practically five months of playing. Some fast players have been signed by the va rious clubs and there Is every pros pect that the outlaws will draw big crowds to their games and may se Tlously affect the attendance of other leagues In some cities. Overtures "have already been made to some of the best players in the big league and, with a successful season for the new organization, there may be serious defections In the ranks of the major league players within a year or two. If the Union League manages to live through the coming season It Is fald that the promoters will invade New York with a club In the Bronx and will also put a club In either Provlflpnce or some other New Eng land city. An attempt will also be made to Induce many of the major league players to Jump the reserve rule next fall, which means that a red hot baseball war will result. Richmond and Norfolk, it Is said, have also been considered for next year, and If clubs should be placed In these cities, It would probably result in the disruption of the Virginia league.

The prevalence and contin uance of a suspicious epidemic at La Ouarla, which has caused a number of deaths, has decided some steam ship companies not to admit passen gers from that port, while others have resolved not to have their ves sels call there at all.

Stamford, Conn., April 24. Dr. William J. Long, author of "A Little Brother to the Bear" and other na ture stories, which led Presldtnt Roosevelt to brand him as a "fa kir," remains Impenitent. He Is said to be at work ona new book which will contain more Incredible state ments than any he has made In the past, but all of which he says he can prove. Among Dr. Long's more re cent discoveries are that bears often wait beside ant hills, making a noise like an ant In order to beguile the occupants; that crows Indulge In sports, resembling football and other man-contrived games, and tyiat wolves find pleasure and recreation in sliding down snow-clad hills, us ing tbelr talis as rudders.
