Shea, who controls Hampden park, refuses to say whether .or not he has yet leased his ball park to Mike Finn for ‘a Springfleld club in the Eastern association. Finn is now in the South, but President J. ~H. O'Rourke of the Hastern association has undoubtedly been negotiating with Mr. Shea. The latter admitted Mr. O’Rourke. had talked several things over with him. Mr. Shea would say nothing'that would lead one to believe he has yet leased his park. HAMMOND SATISFIES. 3 Walter Hammond, Springfield’s se- cond baseman last’ vear, appears to Cleveland writers as a comer, One scribe ' looked over the former Col- gate university athlete and arrived at this conclusion: “Hammond is the, Cleveland of being a star player before his big league career is much further ad- vanced. Rodgers is not as flashy a player, but has the call because of more experience.” Rodgers, by the way, is the fellow who for a time played in the infield for Mike Finn's ‘Waterbury club a few years ago. fastest member of the WANT BIG LEAGUES, The Bridgeport club is negotiating with two big league clubs for next Sunday.

New York, May b5.—The manage- ment of the Federal A. C. came in for a great deal of attention at a meet- ing of the Boxing Cammission yes- terday afternoon, and the only thing in_its favor, so far as could be found, was that the folks who: went to the club to see the Kilbane-Leanard and Cross-Hommey fights got away with their watches, stickpins and carfare. Outside of overselling the house, keeping persons who had paid high prices for tickets out of the house, making others who held good tickets stand while their seats were occupied, failing to report the receipts to the commission and failing to send the required 6 per cent. to the boxing mo- guls, the Federal A. C. people are not charged with doing anything out of the way. O'HARA A CAPTAIN. Jack O'Hara, former captain of the Springfield baseball club, has been appointed manager of the Claremont (N. H.) club. Claremont will enter a new Twin-State league combination including Keene, N. H., Newport, N. H., and Bellows Falls, Vt. O'Hara last year managed the Urattleboro, Vt., club, so is well posted on Twin- State affairs. He is in a position to land capable men for the Claremont club and now has strings on men he would have placed in Brattleboro had the latte voted to have a team. Standingleft to right: H, Logan, A.

New England league fans are to have the pleasure of watching Paddy Green perform this season. Green, iwho was with New London last year, has reported to the Lowell club and thus puts an end to the stories that he intends to pitch semi-pro ball this The Huntington woodchop- per reported in fairly good condition, carrying some 215 pounds of bone and muscle. The Lowell manage- ment couldn’t find a uniform big enough to fit him so Paddy will have torhold off on his workout until an ‘outfit can be obtained. :BLUE JACKET DISAPPEARS. New York, May 5.—Jim Blue Jack- ét, the Indian twirler of the Brook- feds, has vanished without leaving word as to his destination. The last seen of Blue Jacket was a ‘week ago last Saturday. He was suffering from a pulled ligament in the left leg, sus- tained in a game at Buffalo about a fortnight ago. When the Brookfeds arrived home he was allowed to rest until recovery. He was then able to hop about and had been stopping at the Hotel St. George, but since April 26 his room has not been eccupied. MARINO TO BOX. New Haven, May 5.—Vincent Reina announces that he has secured Young Marino of New York to box “Red” Mack of Newark at the Arena here on May 10, and has also signed Young Rocco of Waterbury to meet Charley Bergen for eight rounds. Frank Brindisi' of New Haven will battle Kid Murphy of New York and Billy Mec- Keon is slated to do duty with Pete Doty. PLANTERS RELEASE MYERS, The Planters, who acquired ‘First Bdsentan Tex Myers from '‘the Tri State league in the expectation that he would be used this season have re- leased the player to the Lowell club of the New Hngland league. Myers has a good record as a fielder ‘and hit- ter. NEW LONDON OANS FOUR. Joe Briggs, who is trying to catch on with Manchester, has been made a free agent by New London. Chet Waite, Ernie Greenwell and Gus Barberich have also been released outright and are at liberty to dicker with any club they may see fit. JACK RYAN CANNED. Manager Lew Wachter, of the Troy dlub of the New York State league has released three of his squad, includ- ing Outfielder Ryan, who was with New Britain at one time, and Jim Ma- roney, the big pitcher, once given a trial by Jack Zeller at Pittsfield. JAKE LEADS HITTERS, Jake Warner, former New Lon- don second sacker, is leading the Law- rence club with the ‘stick and in the field in six exhibition games, War- ner hit for .474 and fielded 1.000.

New York, May 5.—The most tooth- for some time is on the menu at Madi- son Square Garden tonight, when the big Irishman Jim Coffey and Al Reich, dubbed the Adonis of the riag, will swap punches. Coffey has been going Breat guns since Joe Jeannétte took him in charge, leaving most of ais obponents to be assisted from the ring. Reich has a similar though smaller list of knockout victims. Both are more than ordinarily good boxers for heavyweights, Poth are young and each can hit with the force of a mule’s kick, Coffey After Willard, When Champion Jess Willard's board of strategy decides that John- son’s conqueror needs a little adver- tising to keep up the theatrical box office standard he will have to do con- siderable explaining to dodge tonight's wmner. Coffey declares he will be the man, So does Reich, for that matter. Thus the bout carries a good deal more importance than the or- dinary New York no decision ten rounder, Reich claims to have landed' on Coffey’s chin in a gymnasium prac- tice bout some time ago, sending the former motorman te the land of dreams. Since then Coffey has been coy whenever Reich’s name has been mentioned. If this tale is true Reich should “have a _big advantage tonight, because the memory of a sleep wallop is hard to efface. However, Coffey's friends deny the story and are so sure that he will win they have made him favorite in private wagers. 1 ED WALSH LAID UP, According to advices from the Paci. fic coast big BEd Walsh is not likely to be of any value to the White Sox this season. Walsh is laid up with the grip and as a consequence will be un- able to respond to real duty inside a fortnight or a month. Walsh had shown such promise in spring train- ing as to make the critics believe he was on the verge of a successful come- back. Manager Rowland has been anxious to have the spitball king at his best when he decided to take off the blanket. For this reason alone ‘Walsh was permitted to stay on the Pacific coast after the White Sox re- turned east. If Walsh is unable to fulfill his obligations the White Sox will have a mighty tough time pulling through with a whole skin. HIGH COST OF' BASEBALL. I've been in baseball over twenty years,” says Charley Ebbets, “and everything has gone up in price— everything. Bats cost more, bases cost more, players cost more, rail- road fares cost more. The only thing that has not gone up is the price of upper berths, and the players won't sleep in them.” some fistic dish served in New York | Whitney, the Harvard pitcher HARVARD SENSATION CIVES ONLY ONE AT Whi ney’s Deivery Puzze to Colby After First 13nigg. Cambridge, Mass., May 5.—Wilmot who two weeks ago held the University of Maine to two singles, did even better yesterday against Colby, allowing the Waterville players only one hit, Har- vard winning by 6 to 1. The hit against Whitney was made in the first inning by Catcher Deasy, whose drive past Shortstop Reed scored his teammate Campbell, who had been passed and who had 'stolen seconf base, In the sixth inning with two out Simpson failed to touch second base while going rotnd on La Fleur's drive and was forced, so the Colby batter recely no credit for a hit. James, in the box for Colby uss ually has been steady, but although Harvard made only three hits against him, two of them combining for enough rune to win the game, he was wijd. He hit four batters ahd in the fourth inning forced in on® run with a pass and then another Harvard runner scored on a balk. r. hied Colby 1000000001 - 1.3 Harvard 03020000x—5 '3 4 Batteries: James and Deasy; Whits ney and Waterman, CORNELL CREW OFF COLOR; - BmusmnthBmDocallu‘ Slow Time.
