LOCAL TEAM IN’ GOOD CONDITION Efforts to Induce Reitz to Report Are Unavailing. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES Tomorrow's game with Toronto will finish the practice season, and it can be said that the Senators are in excellent condition. Of course, it is to be regretted that Reitz has not yet come to terms, but Mr. Wagner has gone to the limit in trying to secure his signature to a contract. An immense crowd is looked for at Friday’s game* on account of the Baltimores being the oppos- ing club, and the chances of McJames be- Ing in the box, with DeMontreville on sec- ond. A Jarge delegation of Capitol Hill “fans” will be on hand to encourage the ex- Senator. Today the Senators will have as oppo- nents Arthur Irwin's Toronto team, the fast aggregation from the Eastern League that has been entertaining the Baltimore club for the past two days. Game will be called at 4:15. Gus Weyhing has almost recovered from the troublesome stitch in his side and pitch- ed yesterday like a past master in the business, striking out four of the college boys and not a safe hit being made off of his delivery. Hughey Jennings, the brilliant short stop of the Baltimore club, arrived in that city last evening and in answer to inquiries said that everything had been arranged satisfactorily between him and the club. This leaves Pitcher Corbett as the last hold-out, and although he was the star Pitcher last season, Manager Hanlon says he can easily do without Joe's services. Time will tell. Catcher John Clements, the ex-Quaker player, has been selected as the captain of the St. Louis team for the coming season, and Manager Hurst thinks he has picked out the best man in the crowd. Shortstop Fox will be in the game this afternoon for the Torontos. This is the young man Washington tried in a couple of games last season and whose chief fault was inexperience. So far this spring he has been doing good work. First Baseman Proctor, the young Wash- ington player signed by Ted Sullivan for his Dubuque team, left for that city last night, the delayed transportation arriving by yesterday’s mail. Proctor should give @ good account of himself, or many of the wise base ball prophets will miss their guess. Third Baseman Bert Myers is still on the fence and insists that he will not report in Milwaukee this season, and it looks as if Manager Connie Mack has lost the chance of picking up a coel $500/the amount Bert was willing to pay for his‘release. It was expected that the Mount St. Mary’s College club would make a good showing against the gen najors yesterday at National Park on acéourt of the reputed ability of their twirler, Kenna, but the dis- play of stage fright giyeA by the amateurs in the first two innings robbed them of all chances of even makfiig-he contest inter- esting. The college bbys fre all very green in the matter of throwing the ball, batting and playing the fine points of the game, and for this reason easily became rattled. No matter how slight the provocation was for catchirg a runner, off the bases, away went the ball from ne“ of the players’ hands, and seven times out of eight it went wild. Throughout the nine innings Pitcher Kenna demonstrated that he possesses abil- ity above the eyeragéas & twirley, as, bar- ring the first two innings, he pitched clever ball and fielded, his’ position ‘nicely. The chief drawback to the club's chances of scorirg was the weakness of the players at the bat. It appeared as ifxeach man as he went to the bat would consider himself lucky if he hit the ball, and as a result but two singles were chalked up to their credit. The Senators were oug for a good exercis- ing game and played with unusual vim and aggressiveness. All the chances possible on the bases were taken, pretty slides and sharp plays resulting. At the bat Tommy Leahy was very much in evidence, getting a single, a double anda home run, while at second he had nine chances and cop- pered them all. Al. Selbach, McGuire and Captain Brown also batted well. The final score was 16 to 1 in favor of the Senators, a sort of free silver ratio game. The Senators and Torontos were on the diamond at National Park this morning taking the usual morning exercise. The Canucks are very speedy on their feet, but do not look as strong an aggregation as last year. Manager Irwin spoke enthusias- ticaTly of the Baltimore club.and wagered a hat with Mr. Wagner that the Orioles would finish in first place. Nothing has been heard from the three hold out play ers—Reitz, McHale and Wagner, although there is a small possibility of one or two of the trio dropping in at the park at any time. “Big Mike’ Mahoney, once the idol of the Georgetown students, has signed a contract with the St. Louis club to play first base, and will go in Friday’s game if in good condition... “Dick” Harley, who played on the Georgetowns with Mahoney, Lave Cross and Catcher Clements recom- mended the big fellow, and Manager Hurst went to Boston the first part of the week and secured his signature to a contract. Mahoney was turned loose by the Bostons last season without a good trial, and the probabilities are that he will help out the Browns where they are weak, at first and at the bat. Umpires Heydler and Snyder leave for their first assignments tomorrow, the for- mer will go either to Louisville -or St. Louis, while the latter opens at New York.

MEETING, jo Be Observed a The Anti-Saloon League will hold a meet- ing tonight at Foundry M. E. Church. A Principal feature of the program will be an address by Eli F. Ritter of Indianapolis, whos: reputation as an enemy of the sa- loon was made in his home city. He wag- ed a war, it is said, on behalf of a widow against a swell establishment in Indianap- olis, carrying it successively from the low- er court to the United States Supreme Court, where he finally obtained a victory. The contention wa8 raised that the saloon, which adjoined the widow's residence, was objectionable, and the case was taken into the courts, under 2 clause in the Indiana constitution which declares “any law con- trary to public morality to be unconstitr- tional.” The musical program will include a med- ley of national airs by Miss Power and vo- cal solos by Mrs. Spielman and Miss Her- rt ox TELEGRAM Which Explains Itself.
