NOW FOR THE GIANTS Washingtons Wil Next Play the New Yorks. TALK OF NEW MEN FOR THE LOCALS gn Earl Wagner Confident of the Team's Success. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES ——_>+____ The New York club is scheduled to in- augurate its first series with the Senators on the home grounds today. Joyce's team is handicapped to a certain extent by the injury to George Davis, but Stafford has been placed at short and acquitted himself extremely well in the game at Baltimore last Friday. Big Bill Clarke will play left instead of Stafford, and in this change the already strong batting aggregation is strengthened at the bat. Should the local twirlers be able to hold the New Yorkers in check in the matter of. batting the Washington boys should give a good ac- count of themselves in the series. Caylor, the New York Herald correspondent, who is traveling with the club, has given it out that the Giants will take three games down here, but the same demands were made last fall and the local club found them easy Picking. Rusie will pitch in one of the games, and it is probable that Mercer will be saved to oppose him. Strengthening the Team. There has been considerable gossip dur- ing the past week over the addition of new men to the senatorial aggregation, but so far nothing definite has been decided upon. Messrs. Wagner and Schmelz realize the fact that two hard-hitting players are needed, but when such men are angled for the bait has to be of such richness that it would weaken the Senators to keep up the fishing. Bosion was willing to trade a couple of gocd men, but in exchange want- ed Mercer or King, and of course such a proposition could not be listened to for a moment. Few clubs have players with the ability that would strengthen the Washington club that are willing to part with’ them. The season is yet, and all the clubs are holding back, waiting on their players to show weak or strong points. There are veral players in the Eastern League that are available for the local club, but it is too early for them to have shown what they are really worth. As the situation stands today, Holmes, the hard-hitting right fielder, is about the only man with a reputation that there is a possibility of the lecal management landing. This player was on the market a week ago, but as the Louisvilles are doing so weil the chances are every one of the men on the Colonels’ pay roll will be held on to to keep the club up to its present standard of play in case of accident. What Mr. Wagner Says. Ina short conversation this morning with Mr. Earl Wagner the latter told a Star re- porter that he is perfectly satisfled with his team, and that he is confident it will come around ail right. He said the team was fielding as good as any club in the league, but that the batters like McGuire, Selbach and O'Brien had not yet gained their batting eye. Attention was directed to O'Brien, who is hitting the ball hard every time up, but unfortunately right into the hands of the opposing fielders. This sort of luck cannot follow him alll the me and he is bound to land them safe in the KEATING — TRAITS.

HARTMAN'S FATAL THROW. It Gave the Game to the Cleveland Club. That soft spot out at St. Louis has en- abled the Cleveland club to brace up enough to make its record look resp2ctable, the Spiders capturing another game from the Browns yesterday by 3 to 1. Both pitchers, McDermott and Hart, did excep- tionally good work, the record for each being but four safe hits, but a wild throw by Hartman, on third, for the Browns, allowed the game to go to the visitors. There were about 8,000 spectators pres- ent, and the close score and excellent work of both clubs kept the excitement up until the final inning. 4 iB x FA eocesssoun CLEVELA: Burkett, If.

There is lots of reputation hanging around the Boston elub, but from the games played in this city “it would seem as if several players are drawing thelr sal- eries on past years’ records. The spectators criticised little DeMontre- ville quite severely the other day for being caught trying to pilfer bases, but they should stop to consider the fact that base running is controlled by the manager, and when a player does his best he should be encouraged, not condemned. What a lucky find Charley Reilly has been for the Washington club. Hardly a paper in the country but poked fun at the local management when Reilly was sigred t fall, but when théy see Fim p! yes will be opened. Charley Re sever beer in the superb ccnditlon he is this spring, and has never played a betier quality of ball, and that is saying a great decal, as he used to be one of the best third basemen in the Lusiness. Rusie maintains a sphinx-like silence when the question as to the conditions of the deal that brought him back fs pro- pounded. “I'm glad to be with the team again; was never in better physical shape, and am ready to pitch the best kind of bail I know how to as soon as I am called upon,” is how Rusie sizes up his return, ard it is in the right spirit. There is said to be a deal hanging fire between Louisville and Philadelphia, Lou ville giving a star for two Quaker players, It is not likely to develop into anything, however, unless the team takes an awful slump. if the team k up its present strength it will not be molested, and as at present constructed a long, full and fair trial will be given it. Holmes is hardly Likely to continue on the team. He wants to away. Two clubs are after him, and it is more than likely he will shortly be re- leased. College Base Bull ‘The game between the University of Pernsylvania and Lafayette Saturday was cailed in the fifth inning on account of rain. Lafayette had made 11 runs to Pennsy’s 5. Amherst was defeated by Wesleyan Sat- urday by 13 to 6. Harvard overwhelmed the cadets at West Point Saturday, winning by 4 to 0. The soldiers put up a wretched game in the field and could not bat, while Harvard pounded the ball all over the field. Brown was defeated by Yale Saturday in a close, interesting game that was in doubt until the last man was out. The field work of both teams was excellent, but Yale had better luck at the bat. Score, 6 to 2. Cornell and Princeton met Saturday, and the Ithacans were defeated by 6 to 2. The game was a hard-fought one, and was won by the Tigers through a batting rally in the sixth inning. Fordham College treated Lehigh to a sur- prise Saturday, defeating the Pennsylva- nia team by 15 to 7. With the score 7 to 0 in Lehigh’s favor, O'Connor went into the box, and thereafter Lehigh not only failed to score a run, but made only four hits. Lehigh also went to pieces in the field. Coming Ball Players, _ The second team of the Central High School has suffered defeat from the team of section L of the same school by the score of 11 to 9.

Delegates From 108 Cly¥bs in Favor of Organisation. : A national yacht racing association was practically organized at the convention -of yachtsmen which was held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, Saturday after- noon. Oliver “©. Cromwell was appointed chairman of the meeting, afd W. P. Steph- ens acted as temporary secretary. One hundred and eight clubs were represented at the meeting. The meeting was calfed to devise some way of having uniform racing rules adopt- ed by the yacht clubs of this country and Canada. To bring this about, it was sug- gested that a national union should be or- ganized at once, and Aemelius Jarvis want- ed a committee appointed at once and a constitution and by-laws adopted. Such hasty action: was opposed by Vice Comimo- acre Adams, Oswald Sanderson, L, M. Clark, F.-B. Jones and ‘N. D. Lawton, who ciaimed that they were not empowered by the clubs they represented to go into any national union. After a long discussion, Mr. Clark, in or- der to move things a little and make it plain sailing, offered a resolution that in the opinion of the delegates it was expedi- ent aad advisable that uniform racing rules be adopted throughout North America. This was adopted, and was followed by an- other motion being adopted that to bring the reform about it was the sense of the delegates that a national organization should be effected; that a committee of seven should perfect the plan of organtza- tion and that another meeting should be called in October. The committee appointed by Mr. Cromwell is Newbury D. Lawton, C. T. Pierce, Aemelius Jarvis, A. J. Prince, L. M. Clarks J. O'B. Macdonough and Frank Bowne Jones. THEY MADE Goop RECORDS. Washington Ladies in the Recent Whist Congress. The Washington ladies who participated in the Philadelphia whist congress are well satisfied with the record made for this city, now that there is opportunity to anal- yze the work of the most successful play- ers. While they did not bring home the prizes contested for by the 250 players par- ticipating, they have the satisfaction of krowing that representatives of this city stood next to the winners of the cham- pionship of the United States. This cham- pionship was decided by the “finals” played Friday, after the close of the congress, in which Mrs. Bradt and Mrs. Richardson of Boston won the championship of the United States. Those ladies won the right to enter this final contest because they had made the highest record in section C, the strongest section of the congress, and as Washington ladies stood next to them in the score made in that section they are fairly entitled to high rank in the struggle for the championship. In the play of section C, whose winners are now possessors of the cham>ionshi», Mrs. Davis and Mrs. Nichols of Washing- ton stood next to the “champions,” and Mrs. Austin and Mrs. Cosby, also of this city, second to them. POUGHKEEPSI SELECTED. Ofictally Notified That the College Boat Races Will Be Held There. The local regatta committee of Pough- Keepsie, N. Y., was officially notified yes- terday that the intercollegiate committee had decided to hold the boat races on the Poughkeepsie course. The letter of notifi- cation was written by H. S. Van Dusen, who, with F. S. Bangs, was given power to select the course. Yale, Harvard, Cornell and Pennsylvania have secured quarters, and Columbia has several places in view, one of which will prebably be selected this week. The quarters the Yale crew will occupy are those occupied by Columbia a year ago. They are nearly two miles above Pough- keepsie. Both ‘varsity and freshmen eights will be quartered in the mansion en- gaged by the Yale management. There will be four tripartite races, the dates of which follow: Wednesday, June 23, Yale, Harvard and Ccrnell freshmen. Friday, June nell "varsity. Yale, Harvard and Cor- Wednesday, June 30, Cornell, Columbia and Pennsylvania freshmen. Friday, July 2, Cornell, Columbia and Pennsylvania ‘varsity. Georgetown University Field Day. Georgetown University will hold a field and track meet on the campus Friday. It will be confined to Georgetown University men, The object is to bring out the athlet material in the college, and to enable Trainer Foiey and Manager Walsh to pick their team for the dual meet with Colum- bian University and for the intercollegiate gumes. The handicappers will be Trainer Foley, J. F. Collins, "97; T. Pierce, "98; T. F. Cul- len, "99, and J. Murrin, 1900. Fits Sued for $25,000. A special dispatch to the Philadelphia from Pittsburg says: A suit for damages was entered against Pvgilist Robert Fitzsimmons by Isaac Mi- chel, a commercial traveler, who collided with Yarrum, Bob's big dog, at a hotel here some days ago. Michel claims to have received a permanent nervous shock. Fitz says the suit is an attempt to “shake him dcwn.” He says the dcg was playing in the hotel corridor, and did not injure Mi- chel, who, he thinks, was frightened by Yarrum’s size. McDowell Challenges Thompson. ORKLLA, Ont., May 3.—Dr. W. S. Mc- Dowell, who is training with Champion Gaudaur, is going along well and shows marked improvement in form.

The following is the present standing of the players: Ws ‘ou, Last.

The fea- tures of the week were the defeat of Tib- betts by Anthony, who is showing unex- pected strength, and the victory of Mun- delle over O'Farrell. Mr. Mundelle is a very promising player. He is quite fa- millar with the opening he played against Capt. O'Farrell, and caught that veteran in a neat trap. The game up to the eigh- teenth move is said to have been playes several years ago between Jaenisch and Roumanoff. Harris also won from Pren- der, Tucker won from Prender, and Smith and Thomas drew the past week. The Score to date is as follows: Won. Lost. Won. Lost.

A match for the championship of the Dis. trict of Columbia has been agreed upon be- tween Mr. F. M. Wright, who won first prize in three successive tourneys, and thereby won permanent possession of a handsome cup offered by Mr. F. M. Libbey, as well as the title of champion of the Lis- trict of Columbia, and Mr. F. B. Walker, who recently won first prize in the cham ionship tourney of the Washington Chess lub. In thelr match play heretofore Mr. Wright won a majority of the games, but Mr. Walker has been showing up in better form this winter, and the match promises to be close and interesting. The details have not yet been arranged, but the matcn will probably be continued until one player wins five games. But one game a week will be played: probably on Saturday night. Mr. J. W.
