PIONEERS. ’ Speedy Elm City Combination to Play Here Sunday Afternoon. ‘The Cedar Hill baseball nine of New Haven, who come here on Sunday to try to take the measure of the Pioneers, have made a fine record this season. The: visitors have met many of the fastest semi-pro nines through- out the state and have made a fine showing against them all. They have met the fast South Norwalk ‘nine, Middletown asylum, Milford A. -A. twice, winning one and losing one; Branford, Southington twice, and the Colonials, Highwood, Washington Glees, Whlliams, Newhallvilles, All New Havens, North Havens and An- nex nines. They have a victory to their credit over the Pioneers, whom they de- feated in one of the fastest and best games held in-New Britain this sea- son, by a score of 2 to 0, and are com- ing up strong on Sunday and see if they cannot make it two straight over the local outfit, . Marx and Cappelli will do the twirl- ing for the Cedar Hills, Marx has pitched winning ball for the visitors, while Cappellli was the mainstay of the Southington nine and this season has been twirling good ball for the Cedar Hills. Knipping, who has been picked by some of the sporting writ- ers of New Haven of the all star semi- pro team, will work behind the bat for the Cedar Hills. The lineup—Cedar Hills, Knipping, catch; Marx, Cappelli, pitch; Foley, first base; Boyle, second base; Orr, shortstop; Pettit, third base; Jeffcott, left field; Gibbons, Miller, center field, and Forslund, right field. i RANGERS VS. ALPINES. Tocal Boys Preparing to Hand Hart- | ford Club a Beating. . The Alpines of Hartford will be the attraction at Ranger fleld Sunday af- ternoon. This club comes with a big reputation, having defeated most of the best clubs in Hartford besides handing a defeat to the East Ends of this city at the Hast End grounds. This is the first meeting of the Rangers and Alpines and as there is no love between Hartfora and New Britain teams, a red hot game should result. The visitors will probably use Smith in the box and Johnson behind the bat. Nelson will pitch for the Rangers, with Bloom catching. Game called at 3 o'clock. Haugh will um- pire. ANSWER TO QUERY. Regete Brown pitched a full game for the New York Americans on Au- gust 8 and defeated St. Louis at St. Louis in thirteen innings by the score ot 2tol. Philadelphia, Aug. ~ 27.—Leslie Joseph Bush, the young pitcher whe showed such phenomenal skill in_the world’s series-against the Giants last fall, has proved this year that -his work at ‘that time was not a fluke or 'Bush Has Redeemed Early a mere flash. All season he has been winning .games for the Athletics, and he has done much to give . Connie Mack’s team such a commanding lead in the race. He has taken his turn With' regularity and has pitched con- sistently good ball. . OROURKE RAPS UMP FOR CALLING GAME Says He Has No Right to - AD- Dicwiale Gontests. There is at least one unpardonable offense that an Eastern association umpire can commit and that is to be {'a party-to -an agreement between cap- tains.of opposing nines to shorten.the | second game of a double-header. This is a practice which 1is not only frowned upon by President James H. O’Rourke, but is soundly condemned by him. b On Tuesday and Wednesday Um- pire Shamokin Kelly undertcok " to permit New Haven and New Britain to play seven-innings for the second game of a double bill; Mr. Kelly is a very agreeable sort of a person and a veritable warehouse of true Celtic gen- jality and wit. He has old Father Pete’s almanac backed off the sched- ule for jokes and anecdotes. He always keeps a reserve supply ready to tap while on the bal] field and sueh a gentleman’s affair just suits him. Yesterday President O’Rourke ap- prised Mr. Kelly of his views on ‘the matter, via letter, and perhaps the ump will cease to chortle for a few moments while his sparkling eye scans the pages, In the missive he is quietly informed that a workman "is usually supposed to mind his em- ployer and that if this particular workman ever offends in this regara again something is going to happen. “The only time I will permit the shortening of a game in this league is when the- teams are playing a dbuble-header on.a holiday and they have to catch a train for the after- noon game,” said Mr. O'Rourke, “In other cases there is no neces- sity for any agreement. Ir darkness overtakes the play the um- pire then has the power to call the game. Agreements beforehand are useless and simply the products of laziness.” Umpire Keenan has also brought down a few admonitions from the league executive. The little one has a habit of missing plays time to time, in his anticipation of other situations that fail to rise. He has been warned by the president ta keep his eye on the ball, in which case he can hardly go wrong. Mr. O’'Rourke describes of both Umpires Crisham and Daly as thoroughly satisfactory. Daly has been here only a short time, but Crisham started the season and is | the only one of those who toed the line who is still on the job. EASTERN ASSOCIATION.

All of the ath- letes. who engaged or attempted to engage in fisticuffs were fined by the executive. There were no suspen- sions. k Heine Zimmerman, the fiery Teu- ton; and Johnny. Evers, who were di- rectly responsible for: the scene, were fined $100 . each.

Although it shows fifty-eight pos- sible starters, horsemen here do not expect to see more than a dozen or White | fifteen go to’ the post. Among these will probably be H. K. Knapp's Kas- kaskia, 120 pounds; Captain E. B. Cassatt’s Trial by Jury, 125 pounds Carbage, 124 pounds; Senator’J. N. Camden’s Solly, 117 pounds; Louis W. Winans’ Polish, 122 pounds; R. J.

(Special to Herald.) ‘Washington, Aug. 28.—Representa- tive Lonergan yesterday asked the state department to ascertain the whereabouts of Mrs. Josephine Bruckner, of New Britain, who was last heard from at Liba, Hungary.

French considered the prospects in the impending battl satisfactory. Premier Asquith added: “Gen. French speaks in high terms of the quality and efficiency of the French regular troops and their officers On Premier Asquith’s’ motion the house adopted an address to King George praying his majesty to convey to the king of Belgium an expression of the admiration of parliament of Belgium’'s heroic resistance the German invasion, House Adopts Motion, Premier Asquith and Andrew Bepar Law, the unionist leader, each in turn, paid high tribute to Belgian bravery and the house then adopted the mo- * tion with enthusiasm. Premier Asquith, in movirg. the ad- dress in the house.of commons ex- | pressing sympathy with Belgium, said: - “The war which is now shaking to the foundations the European system, originated in a quarrel in' which this country had no direct concern, We strove with all our might, as every one now knows, to prevent its outbreak. When that was no longer possible, we strove to limit its area. -, Threw Away Scabbard. % “It was only when we were con- fronted with the choice between keep- ing or breaking our solemn obliga- tions in the discharge of a binding trust and shameless subservience to naked force that we threw away the scabbard, We do not repent our de- cision. " F “The issue was one which no seff- reéspecting nation, certainly none bred and nurtured Hke ourselves in this ariclent home of liberty, could, with- out undying shame, have declined, We were boiund by obligations, plain and paramount, to assert and main: tain the. thteatened independence of da’small and useful state. ° e 4 “Belgium "had 1né interests of her own to serve, save and except the one supreme and over-riding interest of every state, ‘great or little, which is worthy of the name—the preserva- tion of Her integrity and heér national life, 3 forces. splendidly to Fell on Small States, “History tells ug that the duty of asserting and maintaining that great principle, which, after all, is the well-spring of civilization and prog- réss, has fallén at the most critical moment in the past on states of rela- tively small area and population, but of gréat courage and resource, Never, 1 venture to say, has this duty been moré clearly and bravely acknowl- edged, fiever more courageously ang heroically discharged than during the last few ‘weeks by the Belgian king and the Belgian people. “They have faced without flinching and against almost incalculable odds the horrors of invasion, devastation, spoliation and outrage.

We salute them with respect and honor. We ‘are with them heart and soul, because, by their side, we are defending at,. the same time two great causes—the independence of small states and the, sanctity of international obligations, “We assure them today in the name of this united kingdom and the whole empire that they may count to the end on our whole-hearted and unfailing support.” Taw Seconds Motion. Mr. Law, seconding Premier quith’s motion, said: « “This motion will command the warmest approval net only of the house of commons but of the nations engaged in this struggle, which was not sought by them and which neith- er their wisdom nor their forbearance could have averted. The Belglan drmy has offered a resistance against overwhelming odds which has been ag consvicuous as heroic, and which* has won the admiration of the whole world.” John Redmond, on behalf of the Irish nationals, said he associated i himself with everything that had been said, by the prime minister and Mr., Lew. Continuing he declared: “In no quarter of the world has been the heroism of the Belgian people ex- cited more genuine enthusiasm and admiration than it has within the borders of Ireland.” The resolution was agreed to unani- mously amid cheering As-
