New Haven, Aug. 2.—Captain Clin- ton R. Black, of this fall's Yale foot- ball eleven came down yesterday to make final arrangements for the start- ing of the fall practice and incident- ally he made clear his attitude re- garding the Yale battery now at Toby- hanna, Penn. Captain Black sent out notices to 120 possibilities for the Yale team, ordering them to report here at 11 o'clock a. m., on September 6, two days after Labor Day. This is the largest squad ever called out at Yale and the first year that 2 definite time has been given v any of the captains, but Cap- tain Black said he wanted the nen to report together, as the staff of coachos would be here at that time, and all would have to make a new beginning. The practice will be in the bowl and the old Yale field will abandoned. SENATORS DOWNED AGAIN BY MURLINS Clarkin’s Teammhle to Get Started—McDonald Bats Hard aHrtford, Aug. 2.—Danny Murphy's New Haven club threw the hooks into the Hartford club for the second time in as many days at the Wethersfleld avenue grounds yesterday afternoon. The Murlins' margin of victory was 5 to 1. Hartford chalked up its lone in the opening round and held the upper hand until the sixth inning when a trio of runs placed the visitors in the lead. New Haven shelved the contest for keeps by scoring two more in the eighth off Gero, who relieved Scanlon in the previous inning.

John McGraw did frown several times at Hank O'Day and later at Frederick Merkle. Callahan just looked cross, though some one suid they saw him smiling at the finish. But speaking of that slight re- bellion. It seems that Admiral Jim of Fitchburg got a little riled abaut | Paving all that kalsomine rubbed on him. Cal doesn’t mind being shut out now and then, but he knows when reople try to rub it in. He spoke barshly to his sailors about their paor aim and blue pencilled the lineup of his crew again. When he got through he had an almost All-Schush outfield —TFrank Schulte was in left and Joe Schultz in right. Now to make a long story short, the Pirates won a game from New York, turning thetrick in the tenth inning, when the Corsairs carried away the ors, 4 to 3. John McGraw felt very chagrined about losing that one. He hated to see that old extra inning jinx come back after he had hired Charley Herzog to slay it. The Giants have now playved a dozen overtime games at home, their Harlem extra inning standing being: Games won, 3, games lost, 9.

The Braves scored their run with one out as the result of a pass to Wil- hoit, a sacrifice by Magee and a hard drive to deep oenter by Konetchy, on which Wilhoit tallied.

LIKE THE WORM THE PIRATES TURN Callahan’s Band Finally Grah a Victory in Noo Yawk New York, Aug. 2.—After submit- ting to the shutout treatment in three straight games the Pirates became slightly rebellious on the Pola Grounds yesterday.
