O'ROURKE PROBING FIGHT AT THE ROCK Hesdd of Eastern Association Fines Waters $10 and Keliher $5—To Investigate Further. President O’'Rourke of the Eastern assoclation last night stated that he will conduct a rigid. investigation of the riotous scenes that marred Tues- day’s game between New Haven and Hartford, which resulted in Mickey Keliher and Clyde Waters being chased from' the fleld. O'Rourke ‘has at hand the report of Umpire .James Garry, who officiated at the game. Garry, in his report, stated that Keli- ¢ ker struck Waters first but O'Rourke last night sald that no action will be ! taken until he learns the particulars of the affair thoroughly. The president has fined Waters and Keliher, ten and five dollars, respec- tively and intimated that the offenders would suffer suspension if, to his mind, the aftermath of the investiga- tion warranted such action. Captain Gardella of the Hartford team may aiso suffer as a result of mutterings that reached a climax when the players came to blows. “You can impress upon the New Haven fans and players,” said O'Rourke, “that I will not tolerate such rowdy actions on the ball field. The days of rowdyism in baseball have passed and the players should make an effort to preserve, instead of in- juring, the sport. I am sorry the in- cident marred such a_ wonderful “O’Rourke, continuing, flayed Um- pire Garry and made it plain that he was not satisfled with the manner in which the ,game in question was handled.

SMITH CONFIDENT OF VICTORY TONIGHT/ Believes He Will Have Little Trouble, in PI.s‘podng of Georges Carpen- tier in London Ring. Harrow-on-the-Hill, England, July 16.—Gunboat Smith is outwardly un- affected by the frenzied enthusiasm of the London public for Georges Car- pentier. ‘“He is a wonderful boy, no doubt,” said the Yankee. *“His youth, high spirits and good looks please the crowd. But I see no reason to,change my mind about my ability to beat him in the ring.” Gunboat loosened up yesterday with a walk of five/ miles, followed by a rubdown. He/slept after lunch and then engaged /in shadow boxing for half an hour, showing wonderful vigor, grace and agility, and looks fit for the big bout tonight. “The Englishmen pretend that they want us to win,’” said Bob Armstrong with a wink anfl an odd twist of his mouth. ‘“They don’t. See 'em take the places of ‘the horses in front of Carpentier's carriage, Carpentier beat Wells and naturally the English- men want him to beat Gunboat, Be- sides they are always tickled when an American gets licked at anything.” London,- July 16.—Carpentier, like Smith, has finished his serious train- ing and loosened up in his exercises yesterday, He and his backers are countin, n the strangeness of the London %environment to handicap Smith more than the Frenchman., “A foreign situation inevitably. tells o the sangefroid of a fighter,” said Deschamp, Carpentier's manager. “London is less foreign to Carpentier than to Smith, because my man has fought here before.” Jack Johnson is convinced that Smith will beat the Gallic boxer with- out much trouble, After watching the American skip the rope and punch the bagrat Harrow-on-the-Hill the world’s champion declared Gun- boat’s physical condition is first rate and his science “improved out of recognition.” | ' wAME cAnLED—FOG. %ynn, Mass., July 16.—Although the sun was shining brightly all the afternoon the game between Lynn and Portland in the New Englana league was held up for forty minutes yesterday because the, outfielders could not see the ball “hrough a thick; fog.

' * e f JIM JOHNSON WHIPPED. Sometime Resident of Berlin Victim of Jeannette’s Skill. New York, July 16.—In an uphill battle after receiving a foul blow in the groin in the first round, Jos Jeannette of Hoboken, the ‘‘chocolate soldier” of the ring, won his bdut with Battling Jim Johnson at the Stadium A. C. last night—once on a foul and again by scoring the greater number of 'points after the milling was resumed. Jeannette should have been award- ed the bout in the first round, .John- son hit Joe a foul punch, a right swing that landed flush on the ‘groin. The blow landed’ after about %8 minutes of fighting. Johnson fofced Jeannette to ‘a’neutral corner’” Wnd jumping in the air swung his 'right with all his weight and strength be- hind it. Jeannette crumpled to the mat, and with a gasp placed his hana over the injured spot. Referee Joh sent Johnson to his corner and assisted Jeannette to his chair. Joh was in such a position when the blow was struck that he dia not see it land, as Johnson's body shut off his view. Although Jeannette was plainly injured by the ' punch when he was examined in the ring Joh refused to disqualify Johnson. He announced, because of the unsat- isfactory result of the milling that he would give Jeannette three minutes to recover from his injury. Joh then ordered the bout to be resumed.

Boston, July 16.—On board the steamship Laconia, which arrived yvesterday, were several members of the Harvard second and Union Boat club crews, which carried off the honors at the Henley regatta. All the oarsmen were enthusiastic over their treatment in England and stated that after the final race was rowed one newspaper printed and dis- tributed thousands of fliers bearing the message “Well rowed, Harvard!” This cry was taken up on the streets Wwherever the victors were seen. Contrary to the statement made by Walter Camp, who arrived from Eu- Tope on Monday, and Who regarded the Mayence crew of Germany as the next best aggregation after the two American boats, the men who Te- turned yesterday look on the Leander crew as the class of the remaining crews, The men said that after the final rage was rowed the grand challenge cup was produced at the dinner in honor of the victors and was repeat- edly filled with champagne until 102 quarts had been consumed.

The following the Giants’ Don’t show rules are posted club house: up late. Report on time and get all the necessary prac- tice before the game starts. You can't practice any too long. Don't kick on a decision of judg- ment given by the ump. Don't let the umpire get away with an erroneous decision in regard to the rules. Don’t kick unless you are sure you are right and that he is wrong, then kick your head off. Don’t be afraid to spend a dime and get a rule book. Be sure and get one each year and then you will know whether you are right or wrong in your arguments {n regard to the rules. Don't start for the bench after 2 strikes have been called on you un- less you are sure that the catcher has caught the ball. If he drops it run for first base. . Don’t start for first if the catcher drops the - third strike if there is a man on first unless there are two men out. If you do it ig illegal and you may force the runner off first if he is ignorant of the fact that you are not allowed'to advance to first. If there are two out run and force him, he may reach second and you may reach first. It is worth trying for any- way. Don’t touch a runner if you are coaching at third. If you do the ump will declare the runner out. Don't pay any attention to the fans, whether they are calling you down or praising you. Watch the game and above all things watch the ball. ( Don't cut any of the bases. Be sure and touch 'em all. If the ump: catches you cutting the bases he will| declare you out. Don't run out on foul ground af- ter touching first base when you have singled to the outfield, thereby turn- ing your back to the playing field. Turn towards second base and watch the ball. The outfielder may juggle the ball or let it get by him while you are fast asleep at first. Players of- ten turn a single into a double by making the turn. Don't throw a ball from the outfield to first base when a man has singled. Throw it to second and if he has dou+ bled throw the ball to third. If you throw it to the base he is resting on he may advance to second while your throw is coming in. The player who receives your throw then has to throw the ball to the base to which the runner is going and by that time in \Sjporting News of the Day. nine times out of ten the runner is! safely lodged at second. Pon't catch a foul fly ner on third base unless there are already two men out. If there'are less than two men out don’t catch the foul fly unless you are positive that you can throw the runner out at the plate. This only applies when the score is close. If it is a fair fly you may as well catch it because if 3 drop it the runner on third W score anyway. Don't eat a heavy dinner before the game and above all Don’t smoke cigarettes Don’t drink whiskey and Don’'t stay out all night. Any player found guilty of break- ing these rules will be severely pun- ished and any “Rookje” found guilty of breaking them will be given strict| orders to pack up and get back to the bushes. Per J.

High, with Detroit, is hitting for .217 in forty- five games. Irelan of the Phillie: last season with New London, is hit- ting for .246 in twenty-six games. An attempt is being made to have President O'Rourke secure Mike Do- herty. The former KEastern asso- ciation ump is wanted back on the staff and Mike himself wants to re- turn to be nearer home. At pres- ent he is umpiring in the New Eng- land league. White, one of New Haven's pitchers, is suffering from a muscle strain in his pitching arm. Steve was advised by his physician to tak: a couple of weeks' rest to get his arm back in shape. (Every time he pitches of late the wegk arm gives out.
