Long Dave Fouts and his party of Brook- lyn Bridegrooms visited Manager Schmelz's men yesterday afternoon for the second time this season. The Washinstons dis- carded the hoodoo traveling uniforms, but the change was unproductive of victory, for the visiting lads had no difficulty in cap- turing the game. The excessively warm weather caused a decided falling off in the attendance, as it did in the falling off in the play of the locals, and it was a very, very tired crowd that departed from the grounds at the end of the ninth inning. No brilliant plays oc- curred, and after the first portion of the exhibition victory for Brooklyn was an assured fact. Mercer pitched for four innings and was then replaced by Mike Sullivan, although the youngster was doin; well as could be expected, in view of the discouraging fielding. Sullivan pitched much better than his work a few days ago gave reason to. ex- pect. With the score 10 to 5 against them the Washingtons got three men on bases in the ninth inning, with but one out. Cart- wright then popped up a fly which was caught easily and Tebeau, who had been on first and ran far past second, in endeay- oring to get back to the initial bag, cut across the diamond and was promptly de- clared out, retiring the side. McGuire scored on the play. McGuire had an off day in his throwing to second and Rad- ford and Cartwright did not put up their usually good game.

Great credit is due the Senators for the snappy ball playing they have exhibited re- cently, with the exception of yesterday. Indifferent playing was not apparent until Esper showed that he was not tn good form. Yesterday's game, however, lacked ginger, and the opponents were quick to take advantage of the absence of that con- diment. There is no question that the absence of Joyce is seriously felt. Hi best third an W although Hasamaear is doing can. Probably no player was more handi- capped by prejudice in the beginning than Ward, but he has persevered in earnest playing, and is in the game all the time, and he is jnst about the best base stealer in the profession. When he gets on first base he is pretty apt to reach third. He — @ game last week by daring base run- - Too much credit cannot be given McGuire for the earnest work he has been doing until yesterday, when he seemed to be in- different, for some reason not apparent to the spectators.; His hard, steady work has almost reconciled the ball cranks to the loss of Farreil. Cartwright ia by far the best first base- man that Washington ever had. Probably no man in the league hits the ball harder than he does.

He had no speed, and the Chicagos had a picnic. The Washington public has its favorites,of course, is the case in every other city, and Abbey just now is a prime one. He de- serves his popularity, too. This does not mean, however, that the public Jiscrim- inates against others. The impression that has gone abroad that Washington .3 an un- satisfactory city to play in becuuse of un- just criticisms of the men is an crroneous one, as was shown by the revival of base ball interest during the late commendable spurt by the Senators. There is one man who does not go to the bat or the field who helps the game along amazingly. Manager Schmelz need have no fear that Dugdale tas not been earning his salary. There Is a ring cf en- couragement in his voice when coaching that is good to hear, and his coaxing and Pleading from the.third base coaching box cannot but inspire his companions. WARD WANTED DELAHANTY. Offered Shorty Fuller and Stafford for lhe Great Hitter. There are base ball deals and rumors of Geals afloat, but the most of them will die a-bornin’. When Bob Allen of the Phillies was injured on Friday, Col. Rogers wired | Eddie Talcott to name a price for Shorty Fuller. To this Mr. Talcott replied that he would see Ward and advise him (the colonel) later. “Will give you Stafford and Fuller for Delahanty; you know our position.” As jueers would say, “there's richness for you.” Stafford and Fuller for “Del. eh? remarks the Philadelphia Press. Gen. “A. J." and Col. “John I.” might let the pavilion go, but if they dared to consent to a trade at this juncture with “Del.” as a basis, the entire rank and file of royal Quaker rooters would be at their ears quicker than a ‘vink. There is not coin enough in the New York base ball treas- ury to buy the boss batsman and the best left fielder since the days of Andy Leonard. Manager Irwin also tried to secure Sul- livan from Washington, but he and Man- ager Schmelz couldn’t come together on terms. Arthur also had lines out for Phil. King, but that great college player has @ bad leg, and it Is doubtful if he will ever play again. The weirdest rumor of the season, how- lever, came to the surface yesterday after- |noon. It was to the effect that the New | York club had offered Ward in exchange for Hallman. Next! Effect of Yesterday's Gam: Baltimore lost twelve points yester- day, while Boston lost but seven. In the meantime, the Philadelphias de- feated New York, and jumped into second place. Baltimore ts still on top, with a lead of fifty-eight points over Philadelphia, and sixty-five points ahead of Boston, who are but seven points behind the Phillies. Pitts- burg passed Brooklyn, by winning two games from Louisville, and are now in fifth place. Protes? Game. Manager Buckenberger of the Pittsburg club has decided to protest Saturday's game with New York. The protest will be based on the ground that Umpire Stage violated rule 57 when he terminated the game on account of rain at the expiration of eighteen minutes. The rule provides that when play is suspended on account of rain the umpire shall wait thirty minutes before calling the game.’ Manager Buckenberger can hundred people to make affidavit to the fact that Stage waited but eighteen minutes. The rain then ceased. Pittsburg Will jaturday’s ‘The Department League. The schedule submitted last evening at a Meeting of the Department Nase Hall League will go into effect on June 28, At the meeting proposals were received for unt- forms and equipments.

At the Boston Theater last night Bob Fitzsimmons, champion middle-weight of the world and challenger of Jim Corbett, met Joe Choynski in a bout scheduled to be of eight rounds duration. Had not the po- ce interfered in the fifth round it was 10 to 1 that he would have finished Choynski in another punch. As it was, the match was declared a draw, but no one present will ever claim that Choynski is a man worthy to combat with the lanky Austra- Man.

I con- fess that I had started out on my journey with considerable misgiving about the char- acter of the people across the Rio Grande and I made up my mind that I would have to sleep with one eye open in order to save my valuables and be suspiciously on the alert when I had dealings with the na- tives. I soon found that my fears were unfounded. 1 discovered that the Mexicaa men of business were wide-awake pro- gressive and were quick to appreciate and take advantage of any fair opportunity that might be offered to them to enlarge their means of making money. Indeed; I was struck with the Americanism, if I may use the word to characterize energy, application and determination, of our south- ern neighbors. I was prepared to see a great deal of suffering and povcriy from what I had read about the conditions of free silver coinage tountrics, but I was agreeably disappointed in perceiving that the people generally of all classes seemed to be bright and happy and what is better than al}, at work.

The northern pert of Sioux county, Neb., was visited Sunday by a cyclone which was terrible in its severity, but compara- tively narrow in its territory.

The board of guardians report that they will | have a surplus of about $7,000 at the close of this year, which they recommend should be divided to the institutions direct.” The board of children’s guardians not only has made no recommendation in regard to the use of the remainder of its appropria- tion for the present year, but has no occa- sion to recommend appropriations to be made to the child-caring institutions. Neither do there exist any special “funds for the child-caring institutions,” to be dis- tributed pro rata or otherwise. B.
