THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE THURSDAY, MARCH 19. 1896. AMUSEMENTS. AUCTION SALES. THE OLD ATLANTICS.

BROOKLYN MONEY FOR KAVV YARD USES, prise, as also Sid Smith and Frank Norton joined them from the Stars, he catching Pratt finely. Prank afterward was the noted oatcher of the Washington Nationals on their great tour "West In 1S67. The oldest survivor of the 1S63 team iR not Charley Smith, but Dick Pearce. Charley was the colt of the team. Pearce was tho most scientific batsman of that early period, and he was the first to adopt my suggestion of "fair foul hits." They were not bunts, but short bound hits which struck In front of the foul Hue fair and then should be scraped and cleaned at least once ever' six months, but I understand that some go as long as two years before being repaired in this manner.

"I shall certainly Introduce a bill next session to abolish the gun making at the Washington navy yard. If a big gun plant were to established In this country by private individuals, they could in a short time secure some the work for foreign governments that Is done by firms in England and Prance. Carnegie people now have some contracts from the Kusisan government for armor plate, with the wonderful Inventive skill of Americans and our splendid facilities for producing armor plate, this foreign trade could soon be increased if the government would encourage It at the start. The fact that this government lias not the means to adopt the MISSTATEMENTS MADE WHICH ARE CORRECTED BY FACTS. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Brooklyn of Sunday, March 16, 1S00, contained a long artice.

accompanied by a picture, which "Wvis Headed, "The Famous Atlantlcs History Recar.ed by a Photograph." etc. Just where: the history comes in it is hurJ to loll, for history certainly does not agree with same of the statements made In that article. If, however, ft was written by rue9 work, then some tfiHowunoe eon be made for the nrnny inaccuracies that appear In It. To begin with, a paragraph under the picture, which says: "The photograph of which 'the accompanying cut is a copy, taken In 1S63. by Williamson, then Brooklyn's leading photographer.

It is the onCy one known to be in existence in this city." Is mtJier puzzling to know why shouM photogro.ph the lAtlanKc team In 1SK3, with Smith and Frank Morton as members, and ltave off some others, who were then with that team. S1il Smith played with the Atlon Lles In 1SC4 ami Frank Morton joined that team during the latter pant of 1865. The men who took port one or more Karnes with the Atl In 18G3 o. J.

O'Brien, Cert fleCd: Archie Mc.Mah n. center field TI Hamilton, right field." This is about as ne rlgbc as somx' of the trther statements. The fact that the A Uantilcs were organized In acid the trine for the fallowing year were: Bergen, Phe'. ps, Holder. Hunt.

Then it continues with a eulogy of Peter O'Brien.

who not only played that year but during the following two, in fact his last gnme with the teams appears to have been on October who It says has been dead for some time. Therefore, "all the playing members of the 1803 team" cannot be alive. In that same paragraph it says, "They Avon the championship of 1S03, ISG4. IS03. 1S6G.

JSCS and 1S70." They did not win the championship in 1S03. The Rckfords were champions that year, having won it from the Atlantlcs in 3SG2. by defeatlns them twice cut of three games played. Then these teams did not meet ngaln until September 2, 18i3. at Bedford Brooklyn), when the Kckford defeated them by 31 to 10.

The return giimo 'was played September S. IStlS, on the Union grounds. WilliamsbnrKh (Brooklyn, E. and the Atlantlcs were beaten again by to 11. Further along It says.

"Of the 1S03 team Captain Charles Smith is the oldest survivor." When did Pearce die? If he is not dead then he is Smith's senior on the Atlantlcs by three years, having joined In ISM, while Smith Joined in ISr.O. In another paragraph It says: "Chapman was selected to catch Creighton In the famous series between picked teams of all Brooklyn and all Philadelphia, which was played In 1SG.1. The first occurred on the Atlantic grounds, at Marcy and Gates avenues. Chapman caught all three games, hut In the last had his hand badly lacerated by one of Creighton's speedy shoots." The author of this fiction is badly mixed up in this matter. He should have known, or would have, had he refreshed his memory with the records of the games, that they did not take place In 1S63, as James Creigliton died on October IS, 1862.

There was a series of games played in 1S62. The first one took place on June at Brooklyn. Chapman caught and Creighton pitched until the former had a finger hurt, when he gave way to Massey, who had been playing first base. Chapman went to left Held and O'Brien, who was playing left field, went to first base. Creighton and Smith exchanged places.

The latter did much better work as only four runs were made off his pitching In five Innings against six runs made off Creighton in four innings. The score is as follows: Philadelphia, Brooklyn. It. O. It.

000. The appropriation was so much iess that the necessary repairs have been neglected; therefore the naval committee this year increases the appropriation, and in addition has made a special appropriation cf $350,000, so that this year's appropriation is about $600,000 more than last year's. Congressman Wilson of Brooklyn is bit terly.Tjpposed to appropriating money for any now "dry docks ht this time, and will fight item in tho nival hill for the erection of dry docks at Algiers, Portsmouth and Mare Island. Mr. Wilson is particularly emphatic In condemning the scheme to build a dry dock on the gulf.

Ho says It practically means the expenditure of from to $10,000,000 for the establishment of a navy at Algiers. "Considering the fact." said Congressman Wilson, "that Algiers Is about, 110 miles from the gulf and possesses iio strategic features whatever I am at a Jos to understand what arguments can be presented in favor of the government building a dry dock there. There is no need for such a dock on the gulf coast. The govern ment has abandoned the one at Pensacola, and there is no uso of attempting to establish another naval station in that region. water condition's are all against such a project.

It is almost impossible to get one the big battle ships into Mobile bay, and one cannot he run into Galveston. So far as protecting the towns and cities on the Mississippi river goes this could easily be done hy shore batteries and torpedo boats in the river. In the event of. a war with Spain tho southern coast of the United States would not be in danger from the enemy's Madrid, Spain, is about on the same parallel as New York city, and If she wanted to send 'a fleet to these waters she would not go into the Gulf of Mexico for that purpose. She would have to take the shortest route on account of the lack of coal facilities, and the Southern coast would be perfectly safe.

I cannot think of any reason, either, that could induce a hostile fleet to eater those waters, unless it was in pursuit of other vessels. It would he rather expensive to expend many 53,000 shots on the small hamlets that line our gulf coast. Another ob Jection to a dock at Algiers is the hot climate of that region. Then there are many unknown conditions that would be encountered In the way of soil, foundations, etc. It might $2,000,000 or $3,000,000 to build a good dry "dock at that point.

Another serious objection to such a scheme is the swift current of the river there. I informed that the current runs at the rate of five miles an hour just oil of Algiers, and any one can appreciate the danger to which one of our big battleships or cruisers would be subjected in attempting to turn about in narrow quarters in such a current. If she should swing up against the piers or ground in the sand, great damage might Tesult. I am opposed to the whole scheme for the three new docks, and started in with a vigorous protest against the one at Algiers, liv main reason for nnnosine lhi movement was because the government now has three more docks than it owned three years ago. 'Within a short time we will have three fine modern dry docks that will be able to receive the largest ships of the new navy.

The one at Brooklyn Is about completed, and the government owns docks at Port Royal and at Puget Sound. Then there is a private dock at Newport News, which could be utilized hy the government to advantage. I think that there is more need for a new dock at ilare Island and at Boston than at any other place. "While it might be good policy to build another dock on the Pacific coast, they can got along without any new ones, now that tho one at Puget Sound is completed. However, if I had the power to select the locations for two new dry docks, I should name League Island and Mare Island.

I believe, above all things, how er, that the government should before undertaking new work, put in first class condition what it already has. Several attempts were made in the committee to secure ap proprlatlons for useless purposes. One of these was an Item of $150,000 to provide new batteries for the Hartford, Admiral Farragut's flagship during the war. I opposed this strcr. uously, and had the satisfaction or seeing this appropriation knocked out.

This vessel would stand no show whatever with one of the mod em battleships, even though it was fitted with i A 5Ja on aeeot the TMstoHc connection this old vessel that it ought to be made a sort nf nvai om sense of patriotism in this resuect than the Americans, and thoy not think ot snrul nnTtrtK. nrpsoi vorl Aftmivs Vnl i ,.1,1 ship, and have even kept the old berr bottle that was found in tho cabin." murrrssnmn Wll.n vnrr fnr th imnmnrl. atlon for $350,000 for the repairing of the new sWp3 of the navy, not only because he believes many of the magnificent cruisers belonging to the White squadron have boon neglect and allowed to get into bad condition because there has been no money to keep them In re pair, qui aiso oecause most of the work on these, ships will have to be done at the Brook 1ya navy yard.

The bats were any length the batsman liked. The pitcher delivered the ball by a toss or a square pitch throwing or a Jerk being prohibited behind a 12 foot line, distant 45 feet from the home base. The pitcher wns not punished for wild pitching nor the hatsmnn for refusing to strike at good bulls. No one was required to touch the bases In running round; a ball caught on the first bound was a fair catch, and base runners wore put out by being hit by a thrown ball when running from base to base. Dick Pearce told me that when he was Induced to Join the Atlantic club in 1ST.G the main attraction to him wns "plunking the between the bases." "1 used to enjoy ihat greatly," he said.

And yet the old boys of to day talk about the ball playing of thirty odd years ago us equaling the fast, scientific game of the present time.

THE REPORT OF THE COM UITTEE TURNS DOWN TAYLOR. (Special to the Eagle.) Albany, N. March 10 The report of the committee on privileges and elections on the contest made by ex Assomblyman James raylor oi Brooklyn for the seat of Senator Peter H. McNulty. in which Senator Mc Nulty's right to the seat is sustained, con siders elaborately the status of Brooklyn school committeemen.

Tho report says in part: "James Taylor, the contestant, claims the seat now held by Peter H. McNulty, upon tho ground that said Peter H. McNulty was a memoer or the board of education of the City of Brooklyn at the time of his election, and had been for 100 days prior thereto, and hence was not entitled to the office ot senator from tho Sixth senatorial district of the state of New York, as he came within. the inhibition ot art. III.

sec. 8. of the state constitution. This claim. is based largely upon the present as well as former charters of the City of Brooklyn, the said charters containing provisions creating the board of education of said city, and under which the mayor of said city is vested with the power of appointing the members of the board, and that that is controlling In the matter of determining whether the contestee was or was not an officer under a city government at the time of his election and for 100 days prior thereto.

That tho educational system of the City of Brooklyn is part of the state system, and the members of the board of education in the various municipalities are state officers, forming a part of the state system, Is, in our judgment, amply sustained by an examina tion of the various statutes of the state, com mencing with the year 1SI2, when tho state educational system was created by statute. and the subsequent statutes prior to the adop tion cf the constitutional provision of the state since 1SZ1. Perhaps, right here, it will be well to refer to the various statutes and provisions of the constitution upon that ques tion." The school system of the state is then ex amined from its inception and the various constitutional references quoted. Continuing, the report fays: "In discussing the question there is really no difference between the system of educa tion In the Oi'ty of Brooklyn and that of any school district in any rural community. The d'lirerence 'that exists seems to be In the method of carrying forward the work of mamtamtmg the common schools of the state under existing laws.

It must be plain that the methods employed in a rural community would lack efficiency when applied to a city of the size of Brooklyn. The state system was intended to be and is easily managed and easily applied so that each locality shall be constituted to give effect to the system in a way to meet its needs and requirements. Again, considering the question In the light of the obligations, duties and liabilities of the members of the board of education In the City of Brooklyn, can there be any difference between them, and are they not in tho same category with the school trustees in the various towns ot the state, except that special statutes have "been passed giving localities like the City of Brooklyn increased powcra and duties as the circumstances require. "We might mention in this connection that the courts have given effect to this interpretation and have held that trustees of school districts are not county, city, town or village officers. One of the earliest cases involving the status and character of the board of education is that reported in 8 Blackford's reports at page 535, the court held at circuit, that the board of education ot the City of Brooklyn was a state body, over which the municipality had no control, and thereupon dismissed an action brought by one Allen against the City of Brooklyn 'or damages for infringing upon a patent cov ering tho chair3 used in the public schools of said City of Brooklyn.

Again, in this state, in the matter of the People vs. Bennett, re ported in 54 ait page 485. it was declared that the members of the board of edu cation ot the village of Saratoga Springs were not county, city, town or village offi cers wilthm the meaning of the constitution. These ca3ss appear to be directly in point." Reference Is made to the case of Girard vs. Lalmbeer contest for a seat in the senate in 187B and of Draper vs.

Casey In the assembly, 1881, each case being decided on the basis that a member or attache of the school system was a state, not a city official. The report adds: "In conclusion, we are of tho opinion that in the application of the constitution and the general statutes of the state with reference to the school system of the state for the purpose of determining if Peter H. McNulty, the contesteo, comes within the inhibition of section of article I of the constitution; that the Is not an officer under the city government, because the board of education of the City ot Brooklyn is a part of the state educational sys temand isan integral part of the general school system of the state, and in the light of the decision of the courts and of tho legislature that the said board is a state and not a city agency, doing state and not city work and functions, and consequently belongs to the state government. TEAOHERS AND MARRIAGE. PRINCIPAL, FBLTER'S OPINION EXPRESSED AT A CONFERENCE.

My idea is to stop all gun making at the Washington navy yard ami turn this yard over to the bureau of construction and engineering of the navy department." Senator Gibson of Maryland, who is a member of the naval committee of the senate, said day that he entirely agreed with Congressman Wilson In his views with regard to taking the manufacture of guns out of the hands tho government and giving it to a private concern, and he said that if the Brooklyn member would introduce such a bill as suggested at this session, he would certainly support it. Next week the house will take up the naval personnel bills.

There is little prospect of any these measures being passed at this session. Every branch of the service has its special bill, and unless they can come to a mutual agreement no relief measure can pass. This the view of the case taken by Spnator Gibson, who is a member of the senate sub committee en the navy personnel, and of ether senators and representatives who have given the matter special attention. Another effort will, he made the latter part this month to dock the Indiana at Port Roynl. Since the announcement of the failure of the big battleship to enter the dock last week tiome ugly rumors have been cir cuiat.ing about theuavy department In regard this dock.

It is claimed by some that a serious mistake has been made in calculating the average depth of water at the entrance the dock, and that the depth of water defended upon by the government will never be realised. The department was given to understand when the dock was authorized to constructed, that, under normal conditions there was a depth of twenty six feet over the sill, and with this amount of water It was argued that the largest vessel of the new navy could safely be docked. It has now developed that under the most favorable circumstances the water at the entrance to the dock never reaches higher than twenty five feet and that the average depth is often less than this. It is said that there has been a miscalculation of about one foot in the figuring on the depth of water that would be had over the sill. When the Indiana was ready go into the dock last week she was drawing just twenty four feet one inch.

With a spring tide on no trouble whatever was anticipated in docking her, but when all was in readiness it was found that there was only depth of twenty four, feet over the sill instead of twenty eight feet as was expected. the evening of the same day the water reached its heighest point, which was twenty four feet seven inches. This was at night and no attempt was made to run the Indiana In explaining the lack of water at the entrance to the dock at spring tide. Commodore Matthews says that it is attributable to the fact of the severe western winds that have been blowing all the month of March. He says that the gales have forced the waters of all the rivers on the Atlantic coast toward the ocean and that the rivers are lower than they have been for years.

The next spring tide Port Royal will occur about the 26th of this month, when ancther attempt will be made to dock the Indiana. Naval officers are hopeful of getting the appropriation for new war vessels increased in the senate and claim that when the naval bill is finally passed it will contain provision for the construction of six new battleships. They base their statement on the fact that the Democrats of the present congress seem inclined to be more liberal in the way of appropriations than the Republicans, and also that Senator Hale, who Is practically the chairman of the r.aval committee of the senate, has already introduced a bill in the senate making an appropriation for six new battleships.
