AMERICAN LEAGUE -BALL GROUNDS, NEW YORK, Afdy 4—~The Invaders had their first opportunity to- day to show what they could do in thefr InitJal struggle with the champton Ath- letics of lnat year from Philadelphia on their hew grounds. So far the Pennsyl- vania ball-tossers have put up an érror- less game against Clark GriMth's High- landers, holding them down to one win out of three in the preliminary series. Still it js unfair to Judge Ban Johnson's Greater New Yorks by the result of those three games. The Athletics have learned to play as a team with splendid precision, Every man knows ‘his néigh- bor's style of play. Then they have a pitching staff that ranks way up in the top lines of the American League's star aggregatton of twirlers. First Inning.

Y., May —Charmjng weather and a fast track Were agreeable surprises to many race- goers who retired last night when heavy showers of ruin were falling. » Many a handicapper went laboriously through mud records for several hours, only to throw them away at the track this afternoon. ‘ The showers evidently did not reacn this part of the country, for the track was s0 dusty as to need watering. The attendance was quite heavy for a Mon- day, and this was laid to the fact that ‘ono of the most interesting races of the meeting was carded. This was the Montague Stakes, at a mile and x sixteenth, in which Afri- cander, Heno, Andy Wiliams, Injunc- tion, Rightful and Yellow Tail were pro- grammed to go. This promised” a cracking good con- test, and there was a lively interest in it, The other races were not particular- iy promising, though the flelds were well balanced and excellent mediums for speculation.

CLUBS AND REVOLVERS DRAWN TO QUELL RIOTS IN BROOKLYN, Reserves of the Upper West Side Stati Called to Prevent Bloodshed Along the © Subway—Armies of Strikers Marching Through the Bronx Intimidating Those Who Have Remained at Work. Serious trouble is anticipated at Eighty-sixth street and Broadway tee morrow morning. Bradley & Co,, the contractors having charge of the eub> j;way work from Fifty-ninth street to One Hundredth street, have engaged 500 men, nearly all negroes, to take the place of 2,000 Italians, out on etrile, and the men haye been orderéd to report for work at 8 o'clock to-morrow at Eighty-sixth street. Pte News of this move has reached the strikers, and unless the police jare present in strong force, there will be a bad rict. The contractors all along the subway have, asked for police protection, and say that if there any trouble the city will be held responsible, POLICE KEPT BUSY. Police reserves have been busy all day in the boroughs of Manhattam, Brooklyn and the Bronx to forestall efforts by the striking excavators and rockmen to compel all men working in excavations to quit. There has been severe rioting in Brooklyn, in which seores of heads were broken and a few policemen were injured. Thirty-two Italian strikers were locked up in that borough. The subway is picketed from Forty-second street to One Hundredth street and Broadway with men from the West Thirtieth, West Forty- seventh, West fiixty-eighth and West One Hundredth street stations, There are fifty reserves on special duty in the Bronx and the full force im the East New York. Brownsville and Classon avenue stations are ready for trouble. } } It is not;likely that the demands of the men for $2 a day will be granted by the contractors in any of the boroughs. The threat of the sub-com tractors on the subway to import negroes from Maryland and Virginie to finish the work of excavation and taking-out.rock has inflamed the strikers, FEAR RACE RIOTS WILL RESULT. $ There were five negroes at work at Forty-second stréer and Broad under police guard to-day. Police captains along the line of the sub’ say that if the \\egroes are imported bloody race riots with heavy loss life are bound to\pecur. John B. McDonald has assumed the responsibility for the condition in ‘the rapid transit tunnel. He made the following statement this afternoon:** “Our men are the highest paid of any in the country.

McDonald has 600 men at work to-day. Many of these workmen have been on the reservolr for years and have made no demand for an increase in wages, but the strikers had determined to force them to go on strike in ordée to help along the strike on the subway. - Roundsman John Murphy, of the Bronx Park station, the first holder & a Pulitzer medal for bravery, was sent with six men to keep the strikers iff He found them holding meetings in saloons and halls about Two Huny he telephoned for more men, Reserves were sent from Highbridge, Wakefield, Westchester and Alex~ ander avenue stations.
