I Recommendation Agreed Upon by Board of County Com missioners Yesterday. AMOUNT NOT MADE PUBLIC. Chairman Instructed to Call a Meeting of New Hanover Magistrates Next Mon day Progress of Road Bnild ing Other Proceedings. A called meeting of the Board I of County Commissioners was held yes terday afternoon at which the tax levy to be recommended to the New Han over Board of Magistrates next Mon day,, was agreed upon and other busi ness of more or less importance was transacted. Chairman McEachern presided, and Commissioners Holmes, Vollers, Alexander and Montgomery were in attendance. The levy agreed upon is not yet made public and will not be until the magistrates meet. The same was agreed upon after a careful considera tion of the estimated revenue and ex penditures for the fiscal year. In cluded in the expenditures is the $3,600 for furnishing the James Wal ker Memorial Hospital 'coniointlv with the city, which was some time ago approved by a called meeting of the magistrates with the understand ing that the amount would be in cluded in this year's appropriation. ' The chairman was instructed to le gally notify the magistrates of the an nual meeting which will be held next Monday, June 2nd, at noon in the Court House. Upon motion of Mr. Vollers the following was unanimously adopted: Resolved: That the money paid out ol the general fund on account of the permanent road improvement during the negotiation of the bond sale shall be returned from the special fund and the chairman is hereby instructed to make warrant for same. The amount of the general fund used for road purposes if $5,973.79 and the same was expended during the four months that the bond sale was tied up n the Supreme Court to test its validi ty. The amount will now come out of the $50,000 bond issue and the trans fer from one account to another is a mere matter of bookkeeping. Chairman McEachern made a very exhaustive report of the progress of the road work which was gratifying to the Board. There is now only about a mile of the Castle Haynes road for completion. When this is done, work on the Market street road will be be gun. Chairman McEachern said he had propositions to furnish material from parties who were thinking of leasing the city quarry and that he had told them he was of the opinion that the county would take a liberal share of the output at reasonable figures.

A MARRIAGE AT H1QH NOON. Prof. W. S. Clayton, of South Carolina, Wedded Miss Wescott, of This City. At high noon yesterday in the pres ence of a few invited guests, including relatives and friends, Miss Minnie Smith Wescott, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. M. Wescott, No. 211 South Fourth street, -wss happily united in marriage to Prof. William Sydney Clayton, the Bev. Dr. Calvin S. Black- well, pastor of the First Baptist church, officiating. The parlors of the home, where the wedding took place, were beautifully decorated with potted plants, and the scene waa a pretty one indeed. The bride was costumed in a handsome blue silk, trimmed with velvet and point lace. She carried a bouquet of white carnations and maiden hair ferns. Miss Wescott, the bride, is very popular with a wide circle of friends in Wilmington and the groom, Prof. Clayton, is a native of Ernhardt, S. C. During the past year he has been a member of the Wilmington High School faculty and has made many friends here. The couple left at 3A5 o'clock yesterday afternoon for Ern hardt, which will be their home in the future. The bride received many beautiful and handsome presents. HUGE LIQUOR COMBINE. Reported Movement on Foot to Consoli date Sale Under Municipal Sanction. It was learned yesterday from an authoritative source that Col. F. W. Kerchner, the well known liquor dealer, had made a proposition to pay the city for the exclusive right to sell liquor in Wilmington the sum of $30, 000. It was also learned aemi-officially that the Board of Aldermen would likely consider the proposition serious ly and that certain attorneys had ad vised that the privilege could be grant ed constitutionally. Other lawyers dissented from the opinion. The applicant agrees to give good and sufficient bond for the mainten ance of the proposition and it is point ed out as an argument in favor of the application that the city now receives only $15,000 from the fifty-odd liquor licenses granted and the $15,000 extra would be a handsome consideration. Those who have watched the under-current of affairs for some time construe the movement to be a harbinger of a warm dispensary fight that will ulti mately ensue. In the meantime the liquor men have their "weather eye" open and are awaiting developments. Clayton Redd's Condition.

Four hundred people saw the game here this afternoon, which was fast and fairly played by both! sides. The weather was sultry and threatening, but the game was enough to keep the excitement at a high Ditch. There were a few individual good plays and McGinnis was kept busy. McCann and Gettig, the latter being Newborn's crack twirler, were on the slab and did magnificent work. The former allowed but five hits, while Gettig held the visitors down to three. Wilmington played rather the better game in the field and kept her errors down to four, while the locals piled up seven. Dommel got two of the three hits for the visitors and played an errorless game. The Wilmington players were badly jaded from an all day ride on a freight train from their home to Newbern.

By failure to provide transportation for the Wilmington team to Newbern Sunday night, Manager Edgar Bear forfeited his franchise and the same reverted to the team, headed by Capt Harry Fisher. Manager Bear bad gone North and in his absence the baseball situation took a rather serious turn. Immediately a movement 'set itself on foot by telegraph to take the franchise out of Wilmington and transfer it either to Winston-Salem or some other city, to be decided upon by League officials. A travelling man, Mr. W. C. Tomllnson, interested himself in the Winston movement and Presi dent Busbee of the League had a con ference by telegraph with Capt. Fisher over the Postal wire. The local en thusiasts would "stand for" nothing like a removal of the franchise with the consequent "black-eye" to Wilmington in the baseball wOrld, and an offer by Fresident.Busbee to furnish transpor tation for the team to meet its engage ment in Newbern yesterday was de c lined. The Winston proposition met a similar fate. Mr. Henry J. Gerken, whose city pride is second to that of no man in Wilmington, at once con sulted a few of the responsible baseball enthusiasts here and at the sacrifice of his own time and money, he left with the team for Newbern on the early morning train yesterday and played the schedule. In the meantime it is understood that'1 the true lov ers of baseball sport in Wilming ton ; will get together and arrange for j the - financing of the team in the future. A new manager will be electei by the return of .the team here Thursday, it will be strengthened and put on a sound financial, winning basis. Mr. Gerken's action in coming to the rescue of the team at the- last moment is indeed commendable. He has j consented to act as manager only for the three days that the team is at Newbern. ! K As to Manager Bear's rather uncere monious abandonment' of the team, For Supreme Court; . For Chief justice: ! MICHAEL H. JUSTICE, j of Rutherford Co. For Associate Justices: PLATT D. WALKER, ' of Mecklenburg Co. HENRY J. CONNOR, of Wilson Co. . May 9?lt - - 1 the best method of washing his hands clean of baseball affairs. There were many wild rumors on the streets yes terday regarding his departure, but foundation for them in fact could not be established. He forwarded yester day to Mr. Frank Turrentine, who sold tickets at the park for him during the season, an itemized statement of his accounts with the players, showing that less than $25 was due them on salary. Mr. Turrentine now has th at amount in hand and will pay the players the amount due them upon their return to the city. It was also stated on the streets yesterday that Durham did not get its guarantee of $40 for each of the three games plajed here last week. Mr. Turrentine has the receipts from Manager Stocksdale and Umpire Mace and will be glad to exhibit them to auyone. The further tangle if there be any will be straight ened out with a special committee ap pointed at a meeting of the enthusiasts held last night. As to Team's Future. That the appetite of the public is keen for good, clean, winning baseball was attested by the large number of persons in attendance upon a called meeting of the local enthusiasts held last night at the City Hall. Mr. Geo. P. James was called to the chair and press representatives were requested to act as secretaries. The meeting was representative and after the object of the gathering had been stated, there was an informal discussion of the situ ation from every viewpoint. A prop osition to take charge of and manage the team from Mr. Henry Bryan, of Tarboro. for $100 per month and expenses was read with correspon dence. It was also stated that Umpire Harry Mace would take the team and engineer its fortunes for a reasonable guarantee from citizens. After some discussion, upon motion of Mr. W. H. McEachern and second by Mr. Wallace Carmiohael, a committee consisting of Mr. A. B. Skelding, Col. Walker Taylor and Major W. F. Robertson was appointed to take charge of the entire situation, employ a manager and re port to another mass meeting of the enthusiasts to be held Wednesday night at the City Hall. The commit tee has the assurance that a popular subscription to whatever amount is needed to : finance the team will be forthcoming. Two of the members of the committee have agreed to serve and with an acceptance by the third, i success seems certain. Mr. James H. Cowan, in behalf of I the Paint and Powder Club, offered to give a benefit for tbe management of the team in two or three weeks. About $150 could be easily realized from that source. Three hundred dollars in popular subscriptions was reported last night. When the team is strengthened and put on a winning basis, the season will likely be divided into two halves and Wilmington will then have, an equal chance in the pennant race. Tarboro and Greenville Play. Special Star Telegram. Tarbobo, N. C, May 26. Green ville proved an easy victim for the home team to-day. The game was slow and full of errors. The visiting pitchers were hit freely and received miserable support; in fact, the whole team was simply outclassed. Arn heim pitched his usual good game until the seventh when he was suc ceeded by Powell, who allowed six hits. The score: Tarboro, 24 runs, 18 hits, 6 errors; Greenville, 4 runs, 12 hits, 16 errors. Batteries: Arnhiem, Powell and Fenner. Forbes, Smith, Shepherd and Whitney. Death of an Infant. Friends of Capt. and Mrs. Geo. Grant will sympathize with them in the death of their eight-months-old daughter, Thelma Christine, which oc curred at 7:45 o'clock yesterday morn ing on Wrlght8ville Sound. The fu neral will be held from the residence, No. 711 Orange street, at 11 o'clock this morning.
