It wonld not be well to pity toy of them tt HtDbtttta Field, because there la noibing like baring tbe letm ttmlllar with their own borne gronnd and aliu know Just bow to gauge tbe aan.

Mmn H«rt on tka Playlwy Bales. Prealdent Jtiaea A. Hart, ot the Chicago Club, who U one ot tbe Commute on Rnles, gives bla views on tbe subject of changea as follow; "You can put It down ts a certainty Ibat there will be very tew obtngts In the rules this year. For my own port I have tlwtys fought tbla feverish deaire on the part ot to many people lo dicker wlib ihe rules. II has become t aort ot principle wllb me to oppoae any propoeedchange In advance ot betrlng wbtt It In. This Ui bectuse there has \>ttu ao mocE nnnecetaary ttmpertng with tbe rolea. which have for a long time been good onuogb ta they stood. There bas tlwtya been, tnd alwayawlll be a certain unmber ot persons who will not be ssllslled wliboui cbsoges an made. Tbeae people I have oppoaed lor yetrt. tod I tbink tbtt a majority ot Ihe league memben have now come to lake a almlltr view, ao Ibat la why I aay ao cenlldenlly tbtt chtnaea ihla year will be tew. Then wUI be ono new rale, how- over—tbtt la at good u settled—butit will doi be t change of rnles. It will be almply Ibe tdopilon of t meaaure lo quell to tbaie that has gndutllr got Into tbo game. It Is auob a purpose as tbla tntt t commliiee on mlea abonid aerve. A law will un- doubtedly be passed doing away with Ibe piomlacu- oua nso ot the big, padded glove on Ihe toM. Thie prtcUce baa grtduaUygot Into the game; tben la no law aathorfilng It, none prohlblUog II, ao tbat It will be neceastr/10 pan leglalatlon doing away wllb the evil. The movement In tbla direction aeema to be pnctlcslly nnanlnoua. My Idea la to prohibit the oae ot padded glovea by everyone aave Ibe cttcben tud bnt basemen." "Yet, Umlt them to tbe catohert." Inlerrupled Caj>t. Anson, who bad dropped Into Fresldent Hart's onlce while tbe converaailon was In proncaa. "Well, I tblok tbe aist baaemsn should ba snow- ed lo use ibem," asid Prealdent Hart "Ue bandies thrown balla pilnolpally aod Is not an Important factor In eiopplng grounden. Moreover, be la lbs receiving end fRquenilydntlnglhe game while tbe FilUsber u warming up to go Into the box. On hese sccounis I believe he abonid be allowed to wear a padded glore, bnt the oiher flelden should be pnblblied from wearing tbem.'' "They abonldn't wetr any gloves at ill." stid OtpL Anton. "Let them go bsnbsnded end ibeo yon wUI see the game tt Us beat." "No, I hanUy think It wonld do to make tbat mnob of to InnovtUon alt at once," ssid HsiL ''The change might be made gttdntlly, butltwonld be taking a good deal In a (bird'—tfmin who had been used to wearing a big glove; be would dud Ihe obtnge to bare htnde pnliy aevere tud etiora wonld be trequeoL" "Ob, yea; It wonld Incretae tbe einis—Ibere It no donbt ot tbtt," aatd Anaon.
