Clevelan Baltimore. Chicago INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 29.—The nine- teenth annual meet of the League of Amer- ican Wheelmen takes place‘in Indianapolis the week of August 9 to 13, inclusive. The officers of the Meet Club have been work- ing for months in their endeavor to arrange an attractive program for the visitors. They feel that they are prepared to offer a greater variety of amusements than ever before given at a national ‘meet. Indian- possesses many attractions for wheelmen, Within, the city are over 100 miles of broad, level and 1-paved streets, Radiating from the city in every direction are thirty gravel turnpikes, offering irre- tible Inducements to those who enjoy country riding. The Broad Ripple and Mil- lersyville cycle paths are possibly the grand- est wheel paths ever built. _ ‘The program for the national meet this year occupies five full days, and those wish- ing to enjoy the full measure of the meet should make it a point to reach Indian- apolis Tuesday morning, and remain over, if possible, until Sunday night. Tuesday will be largely devoted to getting settled, but on that night will take place the re- ception by Governor Mount and the ban- quet tendered the visiting newspaper en. Preparations for the Women. The '?8 Meet Club has made special prep- arations for the entertainment of women during the week of the national meet. In almost every feature in the program .aey have been included and their comfort and enjoyment will be one of the concerns of the Meet Club. Miss Ada Newby is chair- man of the committee on reception and en- tertainment of women. The Propylaeum has been secufed for a woman's headquar- ters and they will be of just as much im- portence during the week of the meet as any lan, no matter if it be President Pot- ter h.mself. Hoosier hospitality is not one- sided. With a reception at the state house, a vaudeville entertainment at English’s Opera House, a special program at the German House, a run over the Millersville path, a breakfast at the Country Club and an afternoon at Broad Ripple Park, the women will find plenty to occupy ‘their time, and no man will regret bringing with him his wife, his sister or his sweetheart. Urged to Take Wheels. Th se who contemplate visiting Indian- apolic du: ng the week of the meet are urged to bring thelr wheels with them. It will be impossible to fully appreciate what the "88 Meet Club has done in the way of entertainment unless the visitors haye their wheels with them. One of the distinct feature of the Meet Club program are the tours and runs, and those who come to Indianapolis for that week and do not take part in some of these runs or make trips over the oycle paths, will re- turn home without appreciating what has been done for their enjoyment. The Meet Ciub urges most strongly that every vis- itor come equipped with a mount. Ample facilities have been made for taking care of wheels, and they will be essential to the pleasurers of the meet. Boston and Buffalo will invade Tndian- is in strength during the week of the The delegations from s hav those two engaged headquarters and come prepared to make a hard fight for the meet in >. Their work in Indianapolis will be one of the side lights of the dig and they will assist indirectly the heelmen of Indianapolis in entertaining the wheeln.en of the country. Indianapo- lis is backing both to win and the larger the delegations from each city the better the members of the "98 Meet Club will feel. The Boston club has stolen a march on their Buffalo brethren by electing the members of the Indianapolis Meet Club honorary members of their ofganization. The Races. The national championship races this year will occupy three days and one night, beginning on Wednesday morning. On Friday night there will be a big middle- distance race, the first of the kind ever run at a national meet. The program Is decidedly novel. There will be multiplet handicap: tandem races, pursuit rac and, in fact, all of the novelties which have been introduced into the racing game this season. x events will be run each day, and the pregram will undoubtedly attract all of the crack racing men of the country who are riding in form at that time. Th prize ; : t is in itself an inducement sufficiently large to draw the racing men to Indian- apolis. In none of the professional events is the first money less than $150. A: added attraction there will be on th ond day the great American handicap for a purse of $1,000, of which $200 will ba dis- tributed in the trials of semi-finals. Preparations have been made at Indijan- apolis to take care of the biggest crowd that ever attended a national meet.

The Washington Club Draws Smallest Attendance of Any. Just when reliable figures can be ob- tained in regard to the attendance at the league ball games is a matter of conjec- ture. It is a hard matter to even get the real figures at home, much less the figures from abrodd. The Baltimore News claims to have solved the problem, and gives fig- ures for the attendance at various league games this season as follows: Club. Abroad. Cineinnatt the Teulsville Brooklyn Baltimore Cleveland Washington 1,401,669 FOUR GAMES IN TWO DAYs. Baltimore and Cleveland Will Play Double-Header Today and Tomorrow. Yesterday’s game between the Baltimore and Cleveland clubs at Philadelphia was prevented by the superabundance of wet- ness which covered the grounds at Broad and Huntingdon streets, The clubs’ loss, however, is the public's gain, for there will be double-headers today and tomorrow. No clubs in the league are playing against greater disadvantages, and, all things con- sidered, none are playing better ball. Un- appreciated at home, they are compelled to go elsewhere to seek the rewards which their merits deserve. That they should select Philadelphia as the scene of their struggles is only another proof of what has always been claimed for that old town— that it is the best base ball city. in the country. Today's batteries at Philadelphia will probably be: For Baltimore, Hughes and Clarke and.

Harry Von der Horst, secretary-treas- urer of the Baltimore Base Ball Club, was last evening notified that payment on the check given his representative Monday in New York had been ordered stopped. This action by President Freedman of the New York club will serve to add to the troubles which have arisen over the ferfeiting of that game. Mr. Von der Horst stated that he would take steps to see that the New York club made good the check. He said he would. at once notify President Young of Mr. Freedman’s action and request that the matter be at once called to the attention of the board of directors. “The remark Holmes made,” said Mr. Von der Horst, “was unfortunate, but then it was only human nature for him to an- swer the spectator who had insulted him after striking out. Holmes is a player who seldom says a word on the ball field, and he regrets the occurrence as much as any one. The crowd went to the polo grounds that day partly in the desire to see Balti- more play, and we do not propose to suffer a loss of $500 because Mr. Freedman lost his temper and went on the field, which he had no right to do, and ordered his team not to play. In response to a request for his opinion on the power of Andrew Freedman to bar Holmes of the Baltimores from the New York grounds in the future, as he has threatened to do, President Nick Young says: “AS a general answer, would say that no official could assume the right, under any law Known to base ball, to prevent any player of a visiting team from ente: ing the grounds for the purpose of tak- ing part in 4 championship game of base ball, assuming, of course, that the player Was in good standing under base ball law. No such case has ever occurred to my knowledge.” “4 Freedman is determined to exclude Holmes from all future games in New York, and there wiil doubtless be warm times when the Orioles go to the polo grounds again. Make a Louisville, 6; New York, 4, The Louisvilles defeated the New Yorks yesterday at Louisville by 6 to 4.

The Bostons continue to win notwith- standing their crippled condition, defeat- ing the St. Louis yesterday on the latter's grounds by 6 to 2.

Yesterday's victory made eight straight for Louisville. Third Baseman Jud Smith will be in the game at Chicago today. ‘The western trip of the Senators will be a short one. They will be back at Nationai Park a week from tomorrow with Cleveland —a transferred series. The rearrangement of the Louisville in- field is the probable cayse of the late win- ning siveak. Ritchey {§ playing a better second than he did short; Harry Davis is one of the best first basemen in the league and has strengthened the club; Clingman is doing just as well at short as he did at third, and Wagner, the only weak fielder in the bunch, is doing well at third and hitting like a league leader. Cincinnati plays thirteen straight games at home, including yesterday's contest with Brooklyn, and the Ewingites should almost cinch their claim on the championship dur- ing this period, as the club is playing pen- nant ball just now. ss ; What a treat it would be for the Washing- ton base ball “fans’’ if a series like the Cleveland-Baltimore games being played in Philadelphia couid be pulled off at Nation- al Park. Pitcher Norcom, the Washington boy playing with Fort Wayne, is making a great record. He wins about four out of every five games he pitches, and besides. is such a hard hitter that he is utilized in the outfield. The Newark players who recently went on a strike because of unpaid salaries and were blacklisted have been reinstated and are again playing with Manager Burns. The case of “Buck” Freeman, who is playing right field for Toronto, is a strange one. Here is a gentlemanly fellow all around; the best hitter in the Eastern League,and almost the best fielder,yet there is not a National League magnate that will touch him. Arthur Irwin has given it out that Freeman is slow on his feet, and this is supposed to bar him out of fast company. Maybe Arthur is foxy and wants to keep “Buck” himself. He said Casey was no gcod, and Earl Wagner picked Snyder, a dead one. Casey and Freeman are the two best players on the Toronto team and land many a victory through their batting and fielding. Some day a league magnate will work one of Irwin's tips the wrong way and pick up a jewel. Bid McPhee came very near meeting with the same accident that put Corcoran out of the game in Pittsburg Tuesday. Bid came so near stopping one of Harry Steinfeldt's cannon throws with his head that he heard the ball whizzing past his ear. It was just such a play as caused the accident here Sunday. McCreery of the Pirates had over- run third base. The ball was fielded to Steinfeldt from the outfield, and McPhee called to him to watch home, thinking that McCreery would try to score. Steiney saw at a glance that a quick throw to Irwin would catch McCreery, so he cut the ball loose full speed for third. McPhee, who Was not looking for that play’and who was standing in front of Steinfeldt, stepped back just as Steinfeldt threw. The ball barely missed him and both he and Harry turned pale. The throw was true and McCreery was nailed three feet, just as Donovan would have been in Sunday’s game had not the ball struck Corcoran.—Cincinnati Com- mercial-Tribune. Baltimore Also Disappointed. There were several heavy showers at Bal- timore yesterday, and Michael, supposing that the downpour would prevent his race with Titus in the evening, left early in the afternoon for New York. Under the rules of the L. A. W. he is Hable to be disciplined, as the skies cleared by 4 o'clock and the track was in perfect condition last night. Both men have intervening dates at other places and will not be able to meet for three weeks or more, — Seaman Anderson Accidentally Killed The body of Karl J. Anderson, seaman, of the United States cruiser Brooklyn, was buried ashore at Guantanamo bay yesterday. Anderson was killed by ‘the accidental discharge of a Spanish one- pound shell, smuggled from one of the destroyed Spanish cruisers, against the or- ders of Capt. Cook. The shell exploded on Tuesday while Anderson was hammering it in an effort to separate the cartricge and shell. A number of the pieces enter- ed his abdomen. The marines paid the last honors. The misfortune had a -spe- cial accent of pathos, because the day of Anderson’s death was his twenty-fourth birthday. + ———_+e+_____ Marie Tempest Married.
