Edward Hanlan Ten Eyck, who last year startled the rowing world by winning the diamond sculls at the Henley, England, regatta, announces his intention of again competing in that regatta. His entry will be found in the list when it is opened. Ten Eyck hopes that Rupert Guinness, who has won the trophy several times, and who is regarded as the best amateur seuller in Great Britain, will enter ind be one of the contestants, so that he may measure blades with him. The report that ‘Ned and his father, James A. Ten Eyck, his mentor and teacher, were to go to the Pacific slope this winter or next spring is erroneous, as the Ten Eycks have no such intention. “Ned” is again at school, and if he does meet Guinness hopes to again win.

SOLE TOPIC IN;BASE BALL CIRCLES See a A Move Which Would Strengthen The kocal Team. CURRENT SPORTIN( p= SSS NOTES About the mo8t sensational base ball dicker that has developed in recent years is being negotiated by the Baltimore and Washington clubs. It has not been fully consummated, but it is belleved the next twenty-four hours will bring forth definite results. The Star telegraphed Mr. J. Earl Wagner in Philadelphia» far the exact particulars this morning. Mr. Wagner replied as “fol- lews: “We made Hanlon the following prop- osition: DeMontreville, McJames and Mc- Gann for Doyle, Reitz and either one of his left-hand pitchers, Nops or Amole, whom Brown may select. The deal to be closed by 9 p.m., December 8 Up to this hour, 12 m., Hanlon has not notified me of his acceptance.” Should this deal go through arrangements Pave been made with minor league clubs First Baseman Doyle. for the transfer or release of Tucker, Reil- ly, Casey, White and Seybold, and the re- engagement of Taird Baseman Harvey Smith, the young Philadelphia student, who did so well with the Senators in the latter Pert of '96, and who played during the past season with Toronto. Hanlon Hesitates. A Baltimore special to The Star says: Through a misunderstanding in the de- livery of Wagner's telegram last night, the deal ig still unconsummated. Wagner re- fused to accept Amole definitely and re- quested Hanlon to accept or reject by 9 o'clock the proposition to let Brown choose between Nops anf Afmole. Hanlon did rot get the message uniil midnight, and has made no answer. He says if he replies at all he will stick to his original fiat, “Amole,” on the ground that Wagner prac- tically wants an option on Nops and Amole, which may not result in a choice until spring. Hanlon ctaims all negotiations have arisen from Wagner, and that he is not anxious to carry; out even what he has agreed upon. He considers the Washing- ion trio a poor'exchange for Reitz and Doyle, with Amote ds a Christmas gift. The deal would ‘not have been considered but for Doyle's wish to leave Baltimore. Demont, he claims, is erratic and not of | the. best habits, while Reitz is exemplary in conduct and a brilliant fielder. McGann is @ conundrum, with a chance of beating Doyle in batting, while the latter is un- excelled in quick throws to second and home and in base running. Sentiment in ore is divided, notwithstanding yle's acknowledged refusal to play again at Union Park. Many believe the Orioies will suffer greatly from such an exchange. Managec Brown was seen this morning by a Star reporter, but outside of saying that he thought the deal would be a good one for Washington had nothing to add to the story in the way of new information. all at league headquarters elicited information that nothing had been receive! there in the morning mail regarding the deal, although a long letter from Manager Hanlon, dated yesterday, regarding the schedule, t Young's desk. The prospective deal was the sole topic today among the local b: ball enthu asts. President Young of the Natio: League said he thought the exchang: would be a good thing for both clubs. Hanlon would be able to handle the Wa ington players with better results than that developed in this city. “Doyle and Reitz are first-class players,” said Uncle Nick, and will strengthen the Scnators’ in- field wonderfully.’ Opening Negotiations. At the recent league meeting Manager Hanlon gave it out that he was ready to listen to propositions for Jack Doyle, but the Baltimore manager's reputation as a shrewd trader kept the other managers and club owners at a distance for fear of get- ting the short end of a trade. Since that meeting Mr. Earle Wagner has been weigh- ing his shrewdness against Mr. Hanlon’s, propositions and counter-propositions being made almost daily, with the result herein eed. for such quality—to go for $15, Choice $20 suits, $10.

Mr. Wagner made the trip to Baltimore last Sunday, and it‘ts claimed the deal was practically agreed upon then. Yesterday morning Mr. Hanlon received a letter from Mr. Wagner settirg 'forth in writing the terms of the preposed transaction, and stipulating that Captain Tom Brown should choose the pitcher. Mr. Hanlon, it is said, was agreeable to sf“the terms excepting that portion touchihgon the pitchers.

Doyle Dissatinfie With Baltimore. The keystone of the deal was the fact that Doyle had practically refused to further play with the Baltimore club. Just prior to the fall meeting of the National League in Philadelphia Mr. Hanlon re- celved a long letter from Doyle. The first baseman praised Mr. Hanlon’s ability as @ manager, saying he would be glad to Play for him were he the manager of any other team; et a had always treated him well and that ‘he had no kick coming on that score, but that the situation in the internal affairs the team was such or that he (Doyle) id not Baltimore uniform, ee Doyle's letter ended with an appeal to Mr. ore to oe pasa neers ble, to some eastern club, espec! ulating that he did not Snft par site in 8t. Louis or This letter, together but as it was thought best that DeMon- treville should leave Washington another second baseman was desired. DeMontre- ville and McJames are considered great players, and in Baltimore should do good work, and in letting Reitz go Mr. Han- Jon no doubt took into effect the fact that the little Frenchman is a much stronger batsman than Reitz. From Mr. Wagner's point of view, he was after players to strengthen his infield, men who could play the game with their heads as well as their hands and feet. Should the deal go through there can be no question that he has se- Rae two players who come under this ead. * Jack Doyie’s Career. Discussion as to the merits of the deal will now be in order. In arranging the deal Mr. Hanlon had before him the fact of the imperativeness gf trading Doyle. To the minds of many Jack Doyle is the greatest first baseman in the business, on which opinion everybody agrees if Tenney of Boston is left out of the consideration. He was born and raised in Holyoke, Mass., and first attracted attention as a ball player by his work as a catcher for the Canton, Ohio, team in 1889. From there he went to the Columbus club, thence to Cleveland, and in 1892, when it was thought necessary to strengthen the New Yorks, he, with George Davis and Pitcher Davies, played with that club, first a catcher and then as a first baseman. While with the New Yorks he was made manager and captain, but his pugnacious manners on the field soon drove him from the offi- cial positions, and George Davis took up the reins of government. In 1896 Doyle went to Baltimore, being traded for “Kid” Gleason, but only after he had been treated royally by the Baltimore “fans” and made to believe that he would be welcomed in the oyster city Doyle had fought the Orioles so hard in the New York-Balti- more Temple cup series that the Balti- more rooters hated him cordially, but after his signing with their club all was for- given and he proved a pillar of the team. During the past season Doyle made ene- mies of Corbett and McGraw, to say noth- ing of the faction that swing in with the latter, and this no doubt led to his desire to quit the Birds. Pepper Reitz. The letting out of “Pepper” Reitz is the surprising part of the deal, but his weak batting during the trying hours of the bai- tles betweea the Boston and Baltimore clubs in the last series no doubt led to his being placed in the deal. No matter how sensational his fielding might be, simply because he could not furnish a safe hit at critical stages of those games the crowd got down on him, and really forced him off the club. As a second baseman Reitz has no peer in the business. He was born in Chicago, and is about thirty years old. He began playing ball professionally in 1890, with the Sacramento, Cal., team. ‘The sea- son of 1891 he divided between Sacramento and the Rochester clubs. His last seasoa out on the coast was played with the San Francisco club. He went to Baltimore in 1892, and has been there ever since. He 1s one of the most popular of players, his companions being especially on good terms with him. Without exception Reitz is the fastest man with his hands of any one in the bus- iness; his pivotal and double plays created a sensation in almost every game that he played. He is quict and unostentatious in manner, and has made wonderful stops and fielding plays in close places. ‘‘Pepper” is a wheel horse in times of excitement, being possessed of admirable coolness, Jerry Nops and Amole have won their spurs as pitchers, and either one will win more games than McJames on the season. Both pitchers were in the minor leagues before joining the Baltimores. , The Men Who Will Go. Of the men Washington will have to say good-bye to there can be no question as to ability. DeMontreville is a born base ball player, if ever there is one, but his useful- ne$s in this city has dwindled down to nothing, principally on account of this being his home. Tco many friends have killed off a ball player before this, and “Little Gene's” let out at this time will prove a good thing for him. He knew this, and wanted to get away. McJames is in the same boat. As a win- ner he was no good to the Washington club, and his childish action in Baltimore at the end ef last season lost him many friends. With the Baltimore club he should do good work, but a continueus driving will be necessary. McGann's ability has evidently been tip- ped off to Hanlon. The latter wants a hard hitter to replace Doyle, and in Mc- Gann he has the article to a dead cer- tainty. As a fielder and all-around player Deyle outranks him, but McGann has age on his side, and of the trio iost to Wash- ington the man drafted from Toronto is thé one to be most regretted. SAENGERBUND BEATEN. Columbia Athletic Club Bowlers Won Two Games. The undefeated career of the Saenger- bund bowling team was brought to an ab- rupt termination last night by the Colum- ia Athletic Club five. The winged arrow boys teok two of the three games played, rolling up in the opening game the highest score made by any league team this sea- son—S99 pins. The second and third games abounded in splits, giving opportunities for clever spare work, a number of @ifficult ones being made by members of both teams. Among them were 3—5-S—10 by D 4-5-8 by Wood, 5—t—10 by Desio, 4—3—7 by Hanold and 10 by Laue. Mason's game of 210 stands for highest individual score on either side, Laue, in the same game, with 202, leading the visitors. “The Saengers also added two of their men to the list of candidates for the poodle prize, Hanold and Spiess both rolling off the alley. The Saengerbund reversed the usual o: der of things by steadily falling off in their team totals, the second and third games each being lower than its predecessor. ‘The attendance of spectators taxed the seating capacity of the alleys, representa~ tives from most of the other league teams witnessing the contests. Both teams opened strong in the first game. Columbia secured a lead of 4) pins in the second frame, and, though the game was close for the first half, they were never headed. Mascn’s work for Columbia was highly praiseworthy, breaking, as he did, only in the seventh frame, and secur- ing a triple and a double-header. Stitt also made a strong finish, making 28 pins in the tenth inning. The game on both sides was a first-class exhibition of ten pin play- ing. The score follows: { SAENGERBUND. Se. St. Sp.

Columbia started poorly, secur- ing but 61 pins in the opening frame to 91 for Saengerbund. Saengers continued to gai:, and won with a margin of 71 pins. The score of second game: ed as the first event, was probably the most interesting of the evening, owing to the closeress of the score in the early stages of the ccntest. C. A. C. led by but 10 pins at the opening of the sixth frame, gaining 4 in that inning and, by making He _ in the seventh, securing a winning ead.

Tost. ~ transferring the Scranton Eastern League Club to Newark, or some other place, there is no truth in the report. The Scranton club will next year be owned by different persous than those who controlled it last season, and there is a very remote possi- Dility that it will be located in some other city. Up to this time the franchise has not been sold, neither has any arrangement been made to sell it to any one outside of the city. A number of local business men_ will probably take tne club off the hands of the present owners. Negotiations with that end in view are now in progress. If noth- ing comes of them, persons outside the ci! will have an opportunity to acquire the franchise. The present indications are that the club will remain at Scranton. BASKET BALL. National Fencibles and Queer Wheel- men Win Their Games. The basket ball team of the National Fencibles defeated the governnient print- ing office of the National League in an in- teresting game played at the Globe build- ing last night by a score of 11 to 3. This is the first time these teams have played in public, and, all things considered, the ex- hibition was a creditable one. Bgth teams did some clean passing, but the Fencibles displayed the greater amount of skill in throwing for goals. The, line-up: Government printing office—C. Pierson, right forward; J. Pierson, left forward; Lynch, center; Donohue, right back; Or- man, left back: National Fencibles—McGee, right ward; Nottingham, left forward; Raven- burg, center; Crist, right back; Childress, left back.

One of the largest crowds that has turn- ed out to see a basket ball game in this city was present at the game played at the Light Infantry armory last night by the teams representing the Queer Wheel- men and the Mount Pleasant Athletic Club of the District league. Three innings were played, and in that time but one bas- ket was made, the final score standing 1-0 in favor of the Queers. The passing and team work of both teams was scientific and interesting in the extreme, and the large crowd of spectators gave frequent evidences of appreciation in the matter of good plays. Tierney and Von Boeckman of the Queers and Mueller and Holmead of the Mount Pleasant team distinguished themselves by some fine play. The ‘line-up follows: Queer Wheelmen—Pitkin, home goal; Becker, right forward; Loftus, left for- ward; Schwinghamer, right center; Tier- hey, center; Burgess, left center; Campbell, right back; Buckley, left back; Von Boeck- ™man, enemy's goal.

An All-High School Foot Ball Team Defeated. The Gallaudet foot ball team defeaied an all-High School team yesterday afternoon at Kendall Green by a score of 16 to 4. The deaf mutes played their usual aggressive, snappy game, while the team opposed to them had evidences of strength in its make- up and many star players from tne High School elevens of the city. The men had not practiced sufficiently to play together in the best shape. Both sides scored touch-downs in the first half, without kicking goals, Bristow and Brooks going across the lines for the High Schoo! and Gallaudet teams, respectively. In the second half the Gallaudets went at their opponents in fine style and rolled up a score of twelve more from two touch- downs followed by goals. Both teams put up a creditable game, tha: was interesting at every point to the many spectators and almost entirely free from unnecessary rough playing. For Gallaudet, ers, Rosson, rocks and Barham, and for the High School team, Capt. put up the star games.

Miss Getchell’s Whist Team Defeated Mrs. Newbold's, The match fer the Andrews trophies came off in Philadelphia last night, and that strong array of whisters representing Mrs. Newbold’s team was defeated by Miss Getchell’s team by five tricks. The others on the team were Mrs. Jno. C. Bell, Mrs. G. deB. Keim and Mrs. Wm. Henry Lex. As both teams played the same system, it was a fair test of placing the remaining cards after the sixth or seventh trick. Both these tezms have shown their ability to play wining whist at many trying contests. Miss Getchell’s team winning will give the Cranfords the opportunity to put in champicnship games the brilliant practice play that has characterized this tcam the last four or five trials.
