Boston at Brooklyn—cloudy. St. Louis at Louisville—cloudy. Today's Philadelphia Inquirer has the fol- lowing to say about yesterday's game in that city: “Bum, bad ball” fully expresses the ar- ticle of the national game that was shoved down the throats of over two thousand people at the Philadelphia Bail Park yes- terday afternoon, when Washington simply cantered to victory to the tune of $ to 4. The Phillies could not find Dineen suc- cessfully, but they were beaten owing to very dopey fielding. Washington must surely have had a very large injection of the same drug, as their work at times was sufficient to make the angels weep. The “pad example” continued through two hours and a half and people gave a sigh of relief when the last man was retired. The Phillies got just five hits, only two of them being anything like the real thing. Until the fifth inning they had not got the semblance of a hit, although a man came across tha plate through the agency of a passed ball and a wild throw in the third inning. Two very brilliant catches were made, one by Delehanty off Wrigley’s bat in th second, and the other-by Anderson off De!- ehanty in the ninth. Del went back toward the left field fence at a terrific galt and caught the ball from over his shoulder. !t was as fine a bit of fielding as has been given this season. In the same inning Flick made a beautiful throw to the plate and caught Reitz. The Phillies got their first run in the third. After Cross and Fifield had been re- tired Cooley drew a base on balls and stole second. Douglas reached the bag, thanks to Wagner's wild throw, Cooley scoring. Del was hit with a pitched ball and Lajoie got four balls, filling the bases. With the bags full Flick struck out. In the fifth two more tallies came our 1d went-up in the to Selbach, but Cooley bunted and stole secon’ the third base an juggl the ball, Coo! 1 was out, Reitz to McGui to Wagner, who threw to fi runner would have been out had not Me- Guire dropped the ball, Douglas scoring on the pl The P last tally came in the went up fn the air, but hit for two bases, coming home on Delehanty’s single.

Reitz stole se ond and attempted to score on a single Gettman, Flick throwing well and nab- bing him at the plate. The visitors got an- other in the fifth. Wrigley was out, but Gettman beat out a bunt, taking second and third on Dineen being hit with a pitch- ed ball and Selbach’s base on balls, scor- ing on Wagner's long fly to Flick. Two more were added in the sixth. Farrell led off with a single, but McG were out easily. Wrigley hit out a long fly to Cooley, which that artist misjudged, Wrigley taking three bases and scoring Farrell. Gettman’s single brought Wrigley home. Washington made three more in the eighth. Reitz was out, but both Wrigley and Gettman singled. Dineen went up in the air to Del and Selbach singled. Wild throws by both Fifield and McFarland let the three men score.

Griffith was at his best yesterday and the (levelands went down before the Chicagos, ja the latter city, by 7 to 0. But five hits were made by the Clevelands, while Wilson was hit hard by the Chicagos. Dahlen’s batting and al! around playing shared hon- ors with the work of Griffith. R. HE.

The Phillies got seven stolen bases. Gettman hit safely every time he came to bat. Dineen is another of those pitchers that are effective when they get them over. The Phillies did not get a hit until the fifth, then they were mere scratches. It was Wagner's first attempt at short, and he did well. ‘Teams that run themselves are not usual- ly_a success. The only good thing abcut the game was the finish. Of all the bluff catchers, Farrell is the bluffiest. Del lost a double in the ninth. Anderson made a pretty catch off him near the flag pole. Cooley's misjudgment of Wrigley’s long fly practically cost the game. But it would have been a hard catch had he made it. Dineen was weirdly wild, giving six bases on balls and hitting a man. But at that he held ‘em safe and won his game. Cooley made one of his famous misjudges in the sixth. Wrigley got a three-base hit and Farrell scored. A sacrifice by McGuire in the second would have given the Senators two runs, No wonder they have won only one out of the last thirteen. Why not put Farrell on first and let Mac do the catching? It would be a vast im- provement both ways. Deichanty rebbed Wrigley of one three- bagger, but Cooley evened things up by giving him one fn the sixth, Washington made enough blunders to lose a dozen games, but the locals were too dopey to take advantage of them. Dineen has a movement when he attempts to cagen aman on base that savors much of a balk. joie was caught on the trick, and the crowd clamored for Connelly to penalize Dineen, which that official re- fused to do, A funny incident occured ig the fifth. Reitz injured his ankle slightly and Mc- Guire went over to sympathize. Dineen did not know of the conversation and pitch- ed the ball, Douglas rapping it between first and second. McGuire fielded the ball, but could not reach first. Dineen attempt- —— cover the bag, but McGuire threw wild. SENATOR'S NEW THIRD BASEMAN. Judson Smith, Late of Syracuse, Ob- tained by Magnate Wagner. Magnate J. Earl Wagner completed a deal yesterday with the Syracuse club that will land “Jud” Smith inside the Senatorial ranks and the local club will be strengthen- ed by @ player who is conceded to be the best man at the third corner of the dia- mond playing in the Eastern League. Smith has had major league experience, being with the Pittsburg some years back, but he was crowded out of that club by Denny Lyons, who was given the prefer- ence on account of his experiznce and bat- ting ability. His record last year in the Eustern League was a good one, both at the tat and in the fleld. He stood .313 in th2 batting averages, leading su¢h good stickers as “Bill” Hagan, Meaney and Lynch. As a third base- man he stood third in a list of twelve play- ers, with an average of .901, the best aver- age being .940. Smith is about twenty- zight years old, and while not a third base- man in the Wallace-Collins class will play a good steady game at all times, and should strengthen the team considerably. He is a great bunt hitter and fast on his feet, having twenty-eight stolen bases to his credit last season. As a result of the deal Wagner will continue at short and Wrigley will be used as utility man. It is reported that the purchase price of Smith was $1,000, and this is doubtless close to the real figures. Mr. Wagner has put out a great deal of money this y2ar in en- deavoring to strengthen the team, but has not always been successful in getting his money’s worth. It is to be hoped that this time the money kas been wisely spent. LEAGUE SLUGGERS. “Handy Andy” Anderson the Cham- pion Long Distance Hitter. “Andy” Anderson of Washington seems to be the champion long-distance batter of .the league, his record so far including fif- teen doubles, nine triples and seven home runs. Lajole is second, Ryan and Collins tied for third, and St. Jacob Beckley holds fourth position. Cincinnati leads all the league teams in the matter of thrée-base hits, ranks fifth in base running and seventh in sacrifice hit= ting. The Chicago Club leads in stolen bases, Philadelphia in two-baggers and Boston in home runs. Hamliton, Delehanty and Mertes are the leading base runners.

The New York Magnate Forfeits a Game to Baltimore Through Rage. A special from New York says that An- drew Freedman, the merrymaker of the New York Base Ball Club, also its presi- dent, put his foot in the game yesterday up to his knee. Such an exhibition was never before made by a president in the National League, and for the good of the game it fs to be hoped that another such will never be. As the last half of the fourth inning be- gan Freedman invaded the diamond and demanded that Holmes be removed from the field for making a disparaging remark to a spectator. Umpire Lynch refused to do anything of the kind. Thoroughly en- raged, his cheeks purple with anger, Freed- man blurted out that he would summon a policeman and have the ground cleared. Beckoning to a policeman who stood near by, he ordered him to eject Holmes from the grounds. Lynch immediately ordered the policeman off the diamond. The blue- coat turned the other way when Lynch told him he had no right to interfere. Freedman yelled to Joyce to stop playing and forfeit the game. This Joyce was obliged to do. The crowd meanwhile hissed vigorously. The moment that the New York batter left the plate Lynch declared the game forfeited to Baltimore. It was generally agreed that Freedman’s course was entirely unwarranted and in direct vio- lation of the rules that govern the game. The umpire has absolute charge of the field and Freedman had no more business upon it than an outsider. An immense throng surrounded the visitors’ club house and, with cat-calls for Freedman, demand- ed the return of their money. Andrew re- mained in his office, evidently surprised by the dimensions of the miniature riot that he had incited by his foolish action. Um- pire Lynch was asked to give his reason for calling the game, and said: “The New York team refused to continue play while Holmes remained on the field. No other course was left open to me than to declare the game forfeited. The rules expressly state that the umpire has sole charge of the field, is sole judge of every play and must not be interfered with by any official of the club. Mr. Freedman’s conduct was utterly unwarranted and I a no other action than that which I And now to the cause of the excitement: Holmes, when at bat in Baltimore's inning, struck out. A spectator in the grand stand yelled: “Oh, Ducky, you're a lobster.” “Well, I'm giad I’m not worki: fe Sheeny ‘any more,” replied Holmes, ‘Thea 9 Freedman broke loose from the grand jtand. ri stand. “2 All the afternoon ewapatiod except one are bitter in their dent lation of the con- duct of the pre@fdent,’ and the morning newspapers, with perhaps one exception, will censure man severely. Th-s caps the cHmax of @ les of mistakes on his part that have nigh wrecked the na- tional game in Xork and injured it throughout the country. Each club had scored one run when the game was called. Base, Ball, Notes. Philadelphia a: stogay. Gus Weyhing will pitch. Tom Kinslow be gH mised on the trip. They call it “Ble day” in Philadel- phia, The Philadelphia;papers do not give Far- rel credit for being out of the game for three weeks when sizing up his bad throw- ing to second. 2 The games scheduled for Pittsburg and Louisville yesterday were postponed on ac- count of rain. McGraw was hit by a pitched ball yester- day in New York and so badly injured that he will be out of the game for a week or more. He was spitting blood last night. The baN landed in the small of thé back and was one of Meekin’s swift ones. Boston signed Jimmy Stafford yesterday as utility man and.he played right field, getting two hits and fielding without an error. The Beaneaters are pretty. well broken up, Hamilton, Stahl and Tenny be- ing out of the game and Stivetts but re- cently sold to St. Louis, Immediately after-George Decker was re- leased by the St. Louis club Fred Clarke put in a claim for the big fellow and he is now playing right field for the Louisyilles. Clarke has the right idea about the Col- onels, They are weak with the stick, and whenever he can get’a hitter he grabs him, quick. - Umpires Gaffney.and Brown are the best pair of Uncle Niek’s staff that has been seen here this season. Gaffney seems still to be the peer of any umpire in the league, while Brown is doing so well in his new field that he is being praised by players and public.—Cincinnati Enquirer, One great reason: why Pittsburg is play- ing ahead of what is reputed to be the club's real speed i§ that Manager Watkins is making his men do a good deal of scien- tific work. In Sunday's game at Cincinnati they drove Dammann out of the box in two innings by persistent bunting, whica, with two wild throws by Dammann, net- ted the Pirates four runs. The Orioles are the best bunters in the league, but they do not use their most effective. weapon. “How do you like umpiring?” was asked of Tom Brown yesterday. “Well, I like it very well, but I would rather be playing, dnd, furthermore, I want to say that I will be playing next season. Tam too young a man to be pushed out of tHe business, and I won't have it, that is all. Iam as good as I ever was, and I will be in the game again next season.”—Cin- cinnati Enquirer. A Pittsburg special says ft was an- nounced yesterday that Philadelphia would play the fourth game of its. coming series with Pittsburg on August 5 instead of Au- gust 1. The first three games will be played on schedule. This will allow Washington to play in Pittsburg on the first four days of August. Owing to the slim attendance at the Cleveland grounds that club has transferred a game to Pittsburg for next Wednesday, which is.an open date here. MORAN READY FOR MICHAEL. Has Not Lost Any Speed by His Re- cent Rest. Moran is all ready for his match race of ten miles tomorrow. evening with Jimmy Michael. He started in;training again today on the park tracl}thbugh his arm is far from well, and showed that he had not lost any of his speed’!by ‘wis several days of forced rest and ingctidn. He ts ready for the race and feels)quit@ certain that if de- feated he will not be beaten by any great distance. He is géjng,fo watch the result of the race tonight at Baltimore, where Fred Titus will ride-against Michael. Mo- ran is as speedy a» Titus, and if the latter beats the midget, the’stock of the local rider will take an.upward jump. While he Is in trafting the managers of the race are looking after the pace and pacing machines. There are three triplets and one quad at the park track.’ This outfit will be augmented by the/addifion of one or more quads. One quad is coming from Philadel- Phia, while it is hoped to get one or two in Baltimore. The advantage of having more than enough lies §¥the fact that in case an accident happens to any machine andther can be put in place. Just how far each pacing outfit wil Icarry the rider is not known. One thing. is desired, and that is fast time, and it is probable that a new machine will be put in every lap. The crew will be comparatively fresh and be able to carry the rider at a stiff gait. At the most the pace wili be changed at every two laps. According to the arrangement Moran will have six pacing crews, four of which will be mounted on triplets and the other two on quads. Nat Butler, the well-known cir- cuit rider, brother of Tom Butler, who was in this city on June 23, attending the na- tional circuit races, will come over. So will A. C. Mertens, one of the best known pacing men in the country, and who at Philadelphia last year surprised every one by winning one of the championship events. The two men will come from Philadelphia, as will also the Stevens quad, the crew of which paced Edouard Taylore when he broke the world’s hour’ record. B. B. Stevens, the steersman, is a second Michael regarding size, and he is also a clever com- petition rider. He is the same height as Michael, but is ten pounds heavier, and is regarded as one of the best quad’ steers- men in the country. He has followed a mile in 1.40 2-5. Small men follow pace easier than large ones. Charles Hadfield of Newark, N. J., who will ride with the Stevens quad, is one of the most daring riders on the track, with one exception— Fred Sims. That is what the Philadelphia Record says. Of the local pacers the “aristocracy trip,” manned by Fred Sims, steersman; Bobbie Walthour, No. 2, and H. R. Steenson, No. 8, is without a doubt the best triplet team in the country. They are relied upon to carry @ man at almost a 1.85 clip for a mile, considerably faster than most middle distance riders care to travel. This team is‘regarded as the superior of any of the teams in Michael's outfit. The full pacing outfit for Moran is made up as follows: Crew No. 1, triplet—Harry Z. Greer, steersman; Billie Sims, No. 2; John J. Fister, No. 8. Crew No. 2, triplet— L. Wilson,steersman; Fred A. L. Schade, . 2; Carl J. Mueller, No. 3. Crew No. 3, triplet—W. Sims, steersman; Bobbie Walthour, No. 2; H. R. Steenson, No. 3. Crew No. 4, triplet—William Throop, steers- man; T. N. Mudd, jr., No. 2; George EB. Smith, No. 3. Crew No. 5, quad—Nat But- ler, steersman; A. C. Mertens, No. 2; Lee Counselman, No, 3; Robert L. French, No. 4. Crew No. 6, quad—B. B. Stevens, steers- man; Charles Hadfield, No. 2. The names of the other members of the crew are not given. The composition of Michael's pace has not as yet been given, and is hardly expected until but a short time before the race comes off. To witness the twenty-five mile match race of the midget this evening at Baltimore, Mr. J. D. Lasley, the presi- dent of the Park Club, and Manager Wil- Mam Jose will go over, and endeavor to secure any information that might be help- ful to Moran. The-Welsh wonder and his followers are not expected now to arrive in the city until tomorréw morning. The pacing outfits will be taken out to the park without loss of tigyer.ét Was proposed to hold a parade of te riders interested In the race some time’in the afternoon, taking in the main streets of the city. The chief actors were to be dn c: » While the pacemaking nines fa jboth men were to ride the machines that they were to use in the contest, the procession to be headed by a full bfass band in an omnibus. This matter will be-definitely settled to- night at Baltimore. THE nog x DRAW. Twenty-Five Rounds Fought by Me- Partiand sd Bverhardt. Kid McPartland @f*New York and Jack Everharat of Be fought twenty- five rounds last night at the Greater New York Athletic Club, Con2y Island, and at the end of the fight both men were well able to go several rounds more. Referee Sam Austin satisfied every on by declaring the bout a draw. This is the third time the men have met, and last night's contest leaVes the question of su- Premacy between the two to be settled at DA eraLpcomt deg jeseced Gen The tk Ung’ was lively, with McParland a slight favorite at odds of'100 to 90. The followers of McPartland pressed bets while the crowd walted for the their men to appear, tha odds were forced to 2 to 1 on the “Kid.". Just before the men en- tered the ring one bet of $1,000 to $700 was registered by a Ir bookmaker with a well-known cli ‘Sam Austin was introducad to on the the merits of the men. Everhardt was the first to enter the ring. His seconds were Tommy White, Joe Fisher, Danny McBride and Alec Fisher. McPartland was on hand a few minutes later, accompanied by Bob Clark, Andy Walsh, Young Jerrow and Charley Duryea. Everhardt gave his weight as 136 pounds and McPartland owned up to 135.

Poor New York Painter Hopes to Get It From a Scotch Estate. From the New York Herald, Today. After years of constant struggling to keep together a modest home for his wife and children, James Kern, a painter, of 3d avenue, Fordham, sees a prospect of spending the rest of his life in luxury. He is confident that an estate valued at $30,- 000,000, situated near Edinburgh, Scotland, of which he is one of the principal heirs, is approaching a settlement. His share may be $25,000,000. Accompanied by his wife, he has gone abroad to confer with his representative regarding the terms of the settlement. For nearly thirty years the property, which is known as the estate of Stowe, has been in chancery, and the heirs have been Wrangling over its division. Interest has accumulated rapidly. Originally the estate belonged to James Kern, a namesake of the Fordham painter. It dates back one hundred and fifty years, and embraces some of the choicest prop- erty in the vicinity of Edinburgh. Through shrewd investments the value of the estate was greatly enhanced. The family of the original owner in a direct line became ex- tinct about thirty years ago, and the estate went into chancery until it could be de- ¢ided which of the many relatives, who lost no time in putting in claims for a share of the property, were entitled to pos- session of it. Lawyers without number have been dis- turbing the musty atmosphere of Edin- burgh’s courts with forensic eloquence for years, trying to show why their clients’ claims should receive recognition. The testimony submitted was confusing and conflicting. Mr. Kern’s father, who was a paymastcr Sergeant in the Scotch army for twenty- eight years, and won medals for bravery in the Crimean war, continued the contest until his death, some years ago. Since then his son, who came to this country in 1885 to seek a fortune of his own making, has maintained the fight. It has been a slow and difficult task for him to establish his claim,. but from advices recently received he became conyinced that he was about to be successful. He sent his wife to Scotland three years ago to look after the case, but she came back without any encouraging news. ‘The good news received latterly induced Kern to decide to go over himself. Ac- cordingly, in company with his wife, he sailed on the Allan State line steamship Mongolian in its last trip out. His sister and brother are looking after the paint store in 8d avenue, opposite the Fordham reo in his absence. . tled, and that we will now rece‘ve our share of the estate. My brother is the d, should the case be de- e will probably recetve 000. All our relatives at home are well to do, but dt seems like a glimpse of paradise to me to think of the = fortune that seems in store for us at last.” ————-2-+-____ Victory for a Liberal Candidate, The parliamentary bye-election held in The Busy Corner, 8th and Market Space.

She Will Be Miss Daisy Post, a Belle of Newport. | From the New York Journal, Today. Newport society gossip has it that the en- gagement is soon to be annourced of Daisy Post to Bradley Martin, jr., and that their marriage will be solemnized in the fall. Miss Pcet is the daughter of Mrs. Will- iam Post and niece of Mrs. Frederick W. Vanderbilt. She is the second of the group | of bridesmaids at the wedding of Miss Con- | suelo Vanderbilt to the Duke of Marlbor- ough to become engaged. She made her | debut in society at Newport in 1895. At that time Mrs. Vanderbilt gave a series of entertainments in her honor. Though not strictly a beauty, Miss Post is sweet and attractive and has been quite a belle at the shcre for four seasons. Mr. Martin is a rollicking fellow and resembles his mother rather than his father. He is just two years older than his fiancee, and his prospective fortune is Understood to be at least ten millions. Mr. Martin entered Harvard in 1894 and graduated from there last month. While at Cambridge he had the most extensive suite of apartments on the. university campus. But he was popular, an excellent student, and numbered among his chums Frederick Townsend of Albany and Roland Gray, son of Judge Gray of Beston. During his course at the law school young Martin was much chagrined to be defeated in a mock suit. It was a case of taurder, but the evidence was merely cir- cumstantial. Martin was counsel for the defense, and nearly all the evidence was his way. J. Stewart Bryan of Richmond, Va., was prusecuting attorney, and so ably presented his case that the jury agreed vpen a conviction without leaving their seats. Both Miss Post and Mr. Martin are now at Néwport and are daily together. — 20. OUR CUBAN ALLIES. Mr.,Dooley Says They Do Net Hanker _ After Work.
