6 and 7, presided over, by Judges Fisher and Talty, the application for an Injunction made by the National League to restrain Shortstop Wallace, Pitcher Harper and Center Fielder Heidrick from playing with the St. Louis American League team was denied in all three cases today. The decision of each judge is based on a lack of mutuality of the contract, Its abrogation of personal liberty, which, it is declared, may not be bartered away, its opposition, to public policy and its showing of the existence of a combination in violation cf the anti-trust laws. This last showing Is stated by the decision as a sufficient bar to the enforcement of the contract were it valid, which it is net. This action was the result of the petition by President Frank Robison, of the St.

Louis National League Club. Judge Talty, In deciding the case of Harper, covered the points on which the decision in the two cases rests. He said in part: "We are referred to a recent decision in a case similar to this against one Lajoie in Pf nnsylvania, where the writ of injunction issued. The decisions of the courts of other States are persuasive, but we are not bound to follow them. And.

furthermore, it is sufficient to say that it is apparent from a reading of that decision that the plaintiff's evidence there was quite different and much stronger than that adduced at the hearing of this case. Contract Is One-Slded. "Agnin It is contended, and we are of 'the opinion, that the contract is lacking in mutuality. The defendant Is bound as with bonds of steel for the entire contractual period, while section 4 gives the plaintiff power, at its option, to expel defendants, which means to cancel the contract for certain enumerated acts or reasons over all of whih the plantiff Is made the exclusive and arbitrary judge, and section 14 gives him the right to end and determine all its liabilities and obligations thereunder by simply giving the defendant 10 days' notice of his intention to do so. Numerous cases expressly hold that courts of equity will never interfere to enforce a contract where the power to revoke or terminate the same is given to either party to the agreement, the reason being that such contract might bo terminated by the party holding the option after decree of performance in his favor was rendered and the decree thus made nugatory.

Unfair And Not T'niform. "We will pass from defendant's contention that the provisions of the contract are as a whole which includes the league constitution, rules and regulations, which by Paragraph 14 are made a part of the agreementlacking In uniformity, and are so unfair and unconscionable as to make it inequitable for a court of equity to enforce the same, to the point made that the contract is against public policy. "Now, even if it does not come within the prohibition of the anti-trust statute, the evidence shows that plaintiff was during the life of the contract in league or combination with other clubs to fix and control the salary of players, the price of admission to be charged at the games played by members of the combination, and to control the employment of players. The contract was made in furtherance of this combination, and if, as urged by defendant, it was an unlawful one It is against public policy and bars plaintiff from obtaining the relief sought in the court of equity. "Persomal liberty, which is guaranteed to every citizen under our Constitution and laws, consists in the right to go where one pleases and when, and to do that which may lend to one's business or pleasure, only so far restricting it as the rights of others make it necessary for the welfare of other citizens."

E. J. D. Cross, James Hooper and Walter Lord were before the County Commissioners yesterday with reference to an increased assessment upon the Franklinville Cotton Duck Mills, in the Eleventh district, formerly run by Congressman A. A.

Blakeney. The property, which, In addition to the mills, 68 acres of land and several tenement houses, which had been for the past 6 or 8 years assessed at has been increased to $100,000.

Cross said that nothing had occurred since the assessment of $00,000 had been placed upon the property to warrant an increase In the assessment, and that it was not a profitable enterprise and could not, and would not, be operated if the assessment was increased to $100,000, or anything above the present assessment of The mills were three miles from the railroad and most of the machinery was antique. The Commissioners, after a short conference, announced that they had agreed to make the total assessment $80,000.

Louis at Detroit. Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. Boston. May 6. The Baltlmores wanted today's game badly and bent every energy to get there.

Foreman was In the box and pitched groat ball. The Bostons did not d.i very much with his delivery, especially far as runs were concerned, but it was rot Baltimore's day. All the luck seemed to be on the other side, even up to the last Inr.ins. when a low throw by Kelley gave thf home team an opening which they did n't disdain and "Buck" Freeman came to the bat with the bases filled and cracked out a hit which was enough to win. 'I'ineeu pitched his first game here as a member of the Boston Americans and did very well.

The Oriales found him well in the second inning, but after that there was little doing and onJy four hits were made his delivery in the last seven innings. One of these was a triple, and one might been the same had not big LaChance bumped McGann he passed fitst. This threw McGann off his stride and he was thrown out trying for third. lie and Williams did the best Mtting for Baltimore, ft nd Parent. Collins, Ferris and LaChance for the home team.

Parent and Ferris did some tall fielding; in fact, it was the fine work behind Dineen as much as Irs pitching that enabled him to carry the day. The finest feature was a rattling capture by Stahl of a short hit by Gilbert in the seventh inning. Had not Stahl taken this ball Gilbert would surely have made second, and probably scored. Manager John J. MeGraw and his wife and Mr.

and Mrs. Mahon watched the game from the grand Selhach was given 'first base in the Opening Inning, but a double play off Seymour spoiled the chances for a run. Parent doubled and advanced on Stahl's sacrifice, but CiIHns and Freeiueji wereeasy victims. Both sides made thinjs turn in the second inning. Williams singled and was forced by Bresnahan.

Ferris' bad throw gave Bresnahan second base and Gilbert's double to right brought him home. Robinson was on hand with a clean clip to center, scoring Gilbert. "and he made his own run on Foreman's drive beyond Hickman. Hickman hit safely and got to third on LaChance's drive to right, on which big Geo-ge was caught trying for second. Fer-rlV high fly behind second base dropped safely, with Williams, Gilbert and Seymour gathered about It.

and Hickman Second base was unguarded and Ferris got there and scored on Dineen's (single. Parent's bird hit to left center was dropped by Bresnahan after a hard run and Dineen 'made the tying run. Stahl mnde a try for second and Gilbert made a fine recovery of a bad throw and threw Parent out trying to score. Kelley drew a gift with one out in the third Inning, but was unable to advance. Collins singled to center and made second on Bresn.ihan's fumble.

Freeman hit to McG'anu, who made an unsuccessful attempt to throw Collins out at third. Hickman forced Freeman and was in turn forced by LaChance, Collins scoring. Gilbert opened the fourth with a hit, but was doubled by Bresnahan, which put a quietus to rungetting. With one out in the sixth the score was tied on Williams' triple and McGann's single. Boston had the first batsman in the sixth and seventh innings on base, with nf-ne out, but could not get him beyond first, and in the eighth LaChance and Ferris hit safely only to be left.

In the last Inning McGann made a splendid drive to center and went out trying frr third. Captain Kelley claimed that McGann was blocked by LaChance, but Sheridan refused to allow the claim. Then Boston won. Parent hitting safely, with one out, making second base on Kel-ley's low throw off Stahl, third on Collins hot drive at Kelley and scoring on Freeman's safe drive on the first ball pitched. Score: BALTIMORE.

At the Germanla Maennerchor Hall last night "Joe" Baltimore, knocked out "Young Sharkey," of Philadelphia, in 18 rounds. The fight was a good earnest one all the way. Though TIpman put his man out, the fight was in no way' one-sided, nor was the decision reached by a chance blow. Tipman and Sharkey fought in the same ring about three weeks ago. That fight was stopped by the police in the sixth round and the decision was given to Tip-man.

There was after this match an open question as to which was the better man, with the police barred. Last night's contest effectually settled the question. There was a small attendance, there being present not more than one-half as many spectators as have often been in the same hall to see a boxing contest. Trained To Perfection. Both Tipman and Sharkey were trained to perfection and proved It by going 18 rounds and staying strong to the last.

Tip-man fought with more judgment than he has ever displayed In any previous battle. There was one stage in the proceedings In the eighth round when Sharkey by a ble on the jaw put Tipman down for seconds. Tipman was badly jarred, but by good ring generalship when he regained his feet he kept away from further punishment until his good physical training brought his strength around once more. Tipman is heavier than his opponent and has a longer reach. The local man was from the start the aggressor.

Sharkey measured distance at times badly and his blows fell short. His most effective work was done on Tipman's body. Tipman has proven that he can take body punishment, but his face is a very vulnerable point and Sharkey was not able to do much damage to the face except In the eighth round. The Phlladelphian is a muscular fellow. In fact, his muscles are too prominent to be as supple as is required for boxing, where extension as well as contractionisnecessary.

Tipman was slow, as usual. In starting the early work. Three scientific rounds were fought, resulting in Ineffectual leads and clever blocking, only one blow to the body by Sharkey being delivered effectually In the third round. Two Good Blows. In the fourth round Sharkey landed a good left face blow and some jabbing was done.

In the fifth Tipman began to bruise Sharkey's face with jabs, and he continued the work in the sixth round. The seventh was the fastest of the fight np to that pointy Tipman was landing some straight leads for the face when Sharkey rapped him a good stiff body blow with the right. In a bit of short-arm work Sharkey beat Tip-man, and Joe for the first time in the battle broke ground. Tipman nearly closed Sharkey's right eye with a left punch and Sharkey looked a bit distressed at the gong. Early In the eighth round Tipman played for the face effectually.

About the middle of the round Sharkey landed a hard one on Joe's jaw, and the Baltimore boy went down near his own corner. He took eight seconds before he got up and kept away a bit. Sharkey got close to him near the end of the round and landed hard on Joe's body. The last blow looked to be more serious than the jaw blow, but Tipman came up for the ninth round cheerful and fresh. From then on to the seventeenth found good hard fighting was done by both.

Tip-man forcing matters at all times. In the seventeenth round Sharkey early landed early on Tipman's body, but the Baltimore lad sent in a good stiff right to the jaw and quickly followed his advantage, sending In some face blows which made Sharkey discolored countenance swell considerably. By the time the min-ote's rest was. over and Sharkey came from his corner for the eighteenth round it was seen that his eyes were nearly closed. His right was sealed, and his left eye only partly open.

Here's The End. He appeared strong otherwise. TIpman took in the condition of his man and proceeded to jab him a couple of stiff ones In the face. Sharkey could hardly see his opponent, but rushed at Mm head down. Tip-man stepped back and landed a fearful up-percut on the bruised face.

Sharkey 6taggered back, gathered himself together and made an Ineffectual attempt to swing his right. Tipman stepped back and Sharkey lunged forward. It was the Baltimore boy's chance. He whipped his right over Just in time to meet Sharkey's jaw. and the Philadelphlan went down and out for keeps.

Tipman had in his corner Bobby Dobbs, Daisy Bell, Charles Boyer and George Sharkey had as seconds Joe Butler, "Lanky Bob" and George Klnnicker. Kid Lewis was referee. Samuel Solomon, of Washington, challenged Tipman to fight "Kid" Sullivan, of Washington. Mr. Solomon says Sullivan and Tipman should make a great fight, and he thinks Sullivan will win.

The match may be made. The Preliminary Bouts. The preliminary bouts were as follows: Al Karcher was knocked out by "Buck" Chalmers In the first round. "Kid" Meehan knocked out "Kid" Young in the first round. William McCarron and "Kid" Dolan fought three rounds to a draw.

"Fritz" Hamburger (white) knocked out H. Sherwood (colored) In the third round. John Smith met an unknown and the referee stopped the contest in the middle of the first round. The unknown was far overmatched. Al Mason (colored) lost to Daisy Bell (colored) in four rounds by the referee's decision.

PUGILIST BOLAN CUT Wonnded In The Back In A Squabble At Cumberland, Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. Cumberland, May 6. Jack Bolan, the lightweight pugilist, who was defeated before the Eureka Athletic Club, Baltimore, a few days ago by "Kid" Sullivan, of Washington, was stabbed in the back here today in an altercation on the porch of the Virginia Avenue Hotel. Warrants have been issued for Peter Mouse, the proprietor, and his brother, William Mouse, who was a sailo? on the New York in the Spanish-American war. Bolan and William F.

Grimes got into an altercation with Peter Mouse, who asserts that Grimes tried to kick William Mouse In the face while Bolan was talking to him. Bolan and Grimes were ordered off the porch, and, it is claimed, Bolan fell in descending the steps. Bolan immediately after said that he had been shot, lie was bleeding profusely from a cut In the back two inches deep and two inches long. The wound Is serious. Mouse's friends say that Bolan had a knife In his hip pocket which ran Into his back when he fell.

A warrant was alga-issued for Grimes, who fled. Bolan has been here In training to meet George Strong, the Denver lightweight, at Frost-burg next Saturday. Shamrock II Will Not Race. Boston, May 6. A cablegram received by a Boston yachting editor from Sir Thomas LIpton says that the Shamrock II will not be put In commission this year.

On good authority it is stated that it will be made up of Messrs. Walter Buckmaster. Arthur Raw- I llnson and E. D. and D.

Miller. Baseball. Recruits, Orphans, Colts, Cubs, Remnants, Mavericks, Rainmakers and Seeleeites are some of the names the Chicago National League team has to stand for. It should have a christening. Denver will have a bear cub for mascot.

The team is called the Grizzlies. A report is going the rounds that Heidrick "tid Wallace have been offered $7,000 each for tti -t years to play with New York or Cincinnati. Al Buckenberger, manaaer of the Bostons, says that with a good, left-handed pitcher his team would give the champion Pittsburgs a hard chase. Catcher Stahl, of the University of Illinois, may be added to the Cincinnati backstop corps if Manager McPhee can persuade him to join the professional ranks. Sam Leever's reputation as a "sport" has suffered somewhat since he was seen making $2 bets.

Some of the Pittsburg players say that Sam is only a "piker," after all. Jersey City has a good many former National League stars. Billy Shindle, the ex-Oriole of years ago, is covering third; Cupid Childs holds down second, while George Schoch is out in center field. Shortstop Shugart, who drew a blacklist from Ban Johnson last year for his assault on Umpire Haskell, is captaining the San Francisco team and playing in a way to open the eyes cf the California fans. He is plaj-ing at third.

Al Orth is still -the same mystery as cf old. As the seasons roll around all kinds of predictions are made that Smiling Al will be hammered all over the lot, but the opposing batsmen still continue to Eop them up or knock long, high ones to the out-eld. Rumor has it that Wolverton. would lfk to come back to the Phillies. Manager Mack made no mistake in securing Pitcher Kenna.

"Umpire Bob" Emslie is making a hit by announcing the batteries and the changes aa they are made. Fred Postal's wires are in good working order. The new Senatorial backstop is the catching find pf the year. The Washington- president told a Times man: "If Bill Clarke was offered to ma tomorrow with a $1,000 bonus for Drill I would say: 'To the tall timbers with you." In two months Drill will have Clarke outdone in all four ways. He is now a better hitter than Bill, and what he will learn in the next month or so will gie him the experience that he The Pittsburg Club is distributing a neat souvenir button embellished with a picture of the pennant.
