Iiil! 1 'lllllpl 11 wilt deliver ,1 Inctwr SEE PAGE 2. Hughes at this point and he easily disposed of the New Yorks. Gatins led off for Brooklyn with a single and he worked the hit and run game to perfection, drawing Nelson away from his position while McGuire planted a safe hit Just where the second baseman had stood an instant before. Donovan worked Taylor for a free ticket, filling the bases. Keeler chopped the ball over Nelson's head, but the second baseman jumped into the air and pulled down the sphere and sent it to Warner like a flash, nailing Gatins at the plate.

A base on balls to Sheckard forced McGuire home. This was too much for Acting Captain Sel hach and he sent Taylor to the bench, substituting Denzer. The move was a foolish one, as Denzer did npt have a moment's practice. Daly slammed the second ball pitched to center for a base, scoring Donovan and Keeler, and, after Dahlen had fanned, McCreery laced a beauty to the right field fence for three bases, bringing home Sheckard and Daly. Farrell filed to Selbach, leaving McCreery at third.

The remaining innings were full of based hits, but neither side was able to get a run ner across the plate. In the seventh Donovan reached third on Nelson's fumble, a wild Pitch and a steal, but he was left, Sheckard striking out at the critical point. In the eighth Van Haltren led oft with a single, and, after the next two men had retired on flies, Hickman added another hit. Ganzel hit to Gatins and Daly prevented an error by jumping into the air and pulling down a wild throw. landing on second in time to force Hickman.

For Brooklyn in this inning Daly and Dahl ien opened with singles, but Daly was caught i at the plate on Farrells grounder to Hickman and Gatins struck out. The Giants died hard In the ninth. With Strang out Warner singled and Nelson filed to Keoler. Bowerman hatted for Denzer and laced a single to center. Van Haltren beat out a grounder to Daly.

With the bases full Selbach gave Daly an easy chance, ending the game in ding dong style. The batting of the four top men on both sides was the feature, as was also the back stop work of McGuire and AVarner. Ganzel and Farrell divided the honors at first base and Nelson aud Daly made splendid plays at second Hughes fielded his position cleverly By the victory the Champions tie Philadelphia for fourth place and have an excellent chance of moving up to third position to day. DIAMOND GOSSIP. To morrow will be ladies' day at Washing ton Park, and the fair enthusiasts will be admitted free.

Sam Strang, vho led the league batters up to a week or so ago, got only one bit yesterday, a bunt to Hughes. He made some fino plays at short. Hanlon's efforts to get his slow runners to work the bit and run game bore fruit yesterday, Gatins and McGuire developing that feature of team play in the best style, of the art. Twice Gatins led off with hits, and then drew Nelson away from his position as McGuire poked the ball in that direction. The first time.

Nelson ran back and smothered the ball, but on the second attempt McGuire got a single and Gatins raced to third. The old saying that he laughs best who laughs last is frequently exemplified on the ball field, but never more pointedly than in the eighth yesterday, when Warner missed an easy foul from McCreery's bat. Mac laughed uproariously over Warner's discomfiture, and Warner looked sad. The next ball pitched resulted in exactly the same kind of a fly, and this time Warner squeezed the ball. Then he laughed immoderately, while McCreery walked to the bench with his head down.

Hughey Jennings has caught on at last. He will get 53,500 for three months' work from Connie Mack's Philadelphia Club. Players on that team who think they are just as good as Hughey may now be expected to play $400 a month base ball, while Jennings will be expected to give the $1,000 article. It does not pay in base ball to star one man at a princely salary and make cheap performers of the rest. Connie Mack will doubtless discover this shortly.

Harry Dolan joined the Brooklyns yesterday and took part in the practice. He handled himself well in right field and showed that he can hit the ball. He has all the confidence that comes from experience in league company. Letty Davis, who is working out his ten days' grace, may go to Hartford. He says that he will play phenomenal ball in the minor leagues.

Eugene McCann has been pitching winning ball since he joined the Hartforiis. Hp took part in a thirteen inning. 00 game re ccntiy ana on Monday he beat Syracuse by 5 to 3. IRISH WILL WELCOME AMERICAN OARSMEN. Queenstown, Ireland, June 19 The Irish people are preparing to give the Pennsyl vanlans the heartiest of receptions at Kil larney and at Cork should the Americans decide to row there.

At Klllarney the Earl of Kenmare and Lord Ardilaun have consented to open their demesnes free to the public on the occasion of the American crew's visit to the lakes. Three courses have been marked out on the lower Lake of Killarney. The most suitable of these will be selected the morning of the contest, according to the condition of wind and water. ROSS WAS HIGH Zettler Rifle i At the Shoot of the Club. The second shoot in the outdoor tournament of the Zettler Rifle Club took place yesterday afternoon at the club range aud resulted in a victory for Champion Fred C.

Ross. The conditions called for twenty shots per man, in two strings of ten shots each, ring target, 200 yards raDge, offhand shooting. A member may shoot as many practice, strings as he can during the time allowance, but when he starts in the club match, he must announce his intention before firing the first shot. Robs was pretty steady, although not up to his usual form, and. while his highest tally was a 24, everyone of the twenty shots told in the black.

He also made the best ten shot score of the day, beating but the veteran George Schllcht by a point. The scores: Name. F. C. Ttoss George Schlicht G.

Pittsburg at the Polo Philadelphia vs, St. Louis at PliUa nnia. Boston v. CliicnKo at Bostoi Six thousand rooters, a big percentage of them Gothamites, saw the Champions wallop the Giants to the tune or 10 to 5 at Washing ton Park yesterday afternoon. The line of loyalty was clearly drawn, a customary feature of all the meetings between the rival Greater New York teams and for the first time this season the Brooklyn fans emerged luhllaut.

It was the fourth game of the se Sam Strang. i he Leading Hitter of the New York Team Played a Fast Game at Short Yesterday. ries, and the first victory for the Champions. The game was one of those free hitting affairs, punctuated with costly fielding and battery errors and sensational plays, which give the fans plenty of opportunities to get enthusiastic. Every pitching and fielding feat was greeted with wild cheering from the partisan camps and the noise' at times was deafening.

In the first inning, when Sheckard, by as accurate a throw to the plate as was ever seen, doubled up Van Haltren, the Brooklyn mob arose to its feet and applauded the player to the echo, compelling him to doff his cap two or three times when he came to the bench later. Jimmy Hughes received the same recognition in the second when he struck out two Harlemites in succession, while Donovan brought down the house in the seventh for retiring the side on strikes. The Giants, to a man, got a hand when they tied the score in the fifth, but after that Dame Fortune turned her back on the Giants and their followers were silently sad. Four pitchers were used up during the contest, both sides batting furiously. The Brooklyns took advantage of Taylor's wild pitching at the start and kept hammering away at it until he was taken out of the box in the sixth.

Jimmy Hughes met the same fate in the fifth, when the New Yorks bunched some hits and the Champions made errors. Donovan, who succeeded Hughes, pitched cleverly and kept the hits scattered. Denzer supplanted Taylor when the bases were full and was hit just enough to clinch the game. The Giants outbatted the Brooklyns in the number or hits made, but those of the home team were longer and were well bunched. The inability of the New Yorks to squeeze In a hit at the right time is shown by the fact that they had fifteen men left on bases, one or more in every inning excent the third.

The Giants bunched two triples in the first inning, but not a run was scored. Van Haltren, who opened the game by lacing a three bagger to right, was doubled up at the plate on Selbaeh's fly to Sheckard. The latter took the ball after a long sprint and made a sensational throw directly into McGuire's hands, heading off the speedy Van by a yard. It was the prettiest play seen here this season, and the applause was well deserved. Bernard followed with another triple but he was left.

Brooklyn got two in the same inning on free passes to Sheckard and Daly, Dahlen's sizzling drive past Strang for a base and McCreery's long fly to Selbach. The New Yorks could do nothing with Hughes in the next two innings, while the Champions gathered two more runs on Heeler's triple and a home run drive to deep left by Sheckard. There was more cheering for Brooklyn's speedy little left fielder as he marched to the bench after his sprint around the The Harlemites woke up in the fourth and scored runs, threatening for a time to forge to the front because of Hughes' wild ness and fielding that was frayed at the edces Bernard was out on a fast nlay by Dahlen, but Hickman's scorching grounder went through Daly's hands like a rifle shot. Ganzel sot free transportation and a scratch hit by Strang filled the bases. Hughes had two strikes on Warner and then sent up a speedy curve that carromed off Jack's throwing arm and Hickman was forced across the plate with the first New York run.

Nelson followed with a grounder to Daly, who touched Warner on the run and passed the ball low to Farrell. the latter saving in error by a clever one handed stop. A double play was apparently executed but Umpire Dwyer would not allow being declared safe at first base. Ganzel scored on the play. Another free pass to Taylor filled the bases again and brought up Van Haltren, who was implored to smash out another three bagger.

He responded with a hot one to Daly and a fast play followed, retiring the side. Gatins' single, a sacrifice by McGuire and a safe tap to center by Hughes increased Brooklyn's total to five in the last half of the fourth, but New York tied it. up in the next. Selbach aud Bernard started nff nicelv with safe hits and moved up on Hickman's out. Ganzel raised a pop fly back of short, for which Dahlen made a splendid try, only to muff the ball, Selbach scoring on the error.

A fumble by Daly of Strang's grounder let In Bernard, and, after Warner had forced Strang, a single by Nelson brought. Ganzel across the plate. A fast double steal by Warner and Nelson further complicated matters, but Hughes kept his nerve and retired Taylor on strikes. Three fast plays by Hickman, Taylor and Strang retired the Champions in their half of the fifth and the sixth began with the rivals on even terms. Donovan succeeded A Derby Will Be Run at Washington Park on Saturday With No Betting.

JEALOUSY THE REAL REASON. Poolroom Keepers and Small Track Managers Combine With Citizen Reformers. (Special to the Eagle.) Chicago, 111., June 19 Secretary Nathan sou of the Harlem Jockey Club last night issued a statement calling off the remaining three days of the meeting. Following is the statement: "Our intention was to race out the remaining three days of our meeting without allowing betting, but our attorneys advise us not to race, a3 such action might be construed as disrespectful to the court's injunction and might Injure our case, which comes up on Monday." The decision to close Harlem came as a surprise to the public and the bookmakers. The managers of the track held a conference last night and the notice was issued.

The decision to close the track was the result of the. refusal of Judge Stein to dissolve Judge Holdem's injunction prohibiting bookmaking and poolselling at the race track. Out of the courts the bookmakers received a blow when Mayor Harrison declared with emphasis that he would not allow betting on the Derby, to be run at the opening of the Washington Park races on Saturday. Chief of Police O'Neill declared that he would act "when the time comes." "There certainly will be no gambling at the Derby." were the words the Mayor used. "I will permit no gambling there, and that was tne understanding on which the license I wus issuea.

There is no doubt that the American Derby will be run, as usual, betting or no betting. It is reported that Chief of Police O'Neill has received certain instructions with reference to the Derby Day event, but it is not generally believed that the Mayor will enforce the threat made by him that there will be no netting. Present indications are that the field for the Derby will be composed of these horses: Outlander, The Parader, Watercolor. Sadie rerminus. Brutal, Bonnibert, Beau Gallant, Alfonso, Lady Schorr.

His Eminence and Sannazarro. Royal Victor, Hernando, bilverdale and Canmore are doubtful starters. Weather and other conditions some change in the forecast nf th am above, It looks very much as if racing had received its death blow in Chicago The action of the courts, in granting an Inlunrtinn against the continuance of raow tv, Harlem track, has caused the announcement to be made by that track that there will be no more racing after to day, and, while the American Derby will be run at Washington Park, on Saturday, as scheduled, there will be no public betting and the meeting will hardly be continued, as without betting the meeting cannot support itself. The cause of this unusual activity on the part of the citizens of Chicago in seeking to suppress betting can be traced directly to the Chicago poolroom proprietors, who. injiuaieu uy a spirit or revenge, for the attempted suppression of pool selling in the rooms, have acted in concert with the Citizens' League.

Yesterday racing was continued at Harlem, but the absence of any betting on the different events had a depressing effect on the patrons of the track, and, as speculation is the main attraction, there is ant to be a very small attendance this afternoon. That Jealousy on the part of some of the small racing associations, which race on the outskirts of Chicago, has also something to do with the interference with the coming Washington Park meeting, seems likely. The Washington Park directors some time ago decided to take steps to have some measures passed in the Illinois Legislature, similar to the Percy Gray law, which Is at present In operation in this state. Such a law, had it been passed, would have ef fectually settled the smaller tracks, and they, by the use of the most strenuous methods known to politicians, succeeded in having actlou on these measures delayed until after the closing of the winter session of the Legislature. So the sport has not been on a firm basis all spring, although, up to yesterday, there had not been any interference of any sort.

There is a chance of the Washington Park attorney succeeding in getting the injunction vacated, but the probabilities are that it will be continued for an indefinite space of time lorn; enough to cause the abandonment of racing at the track, for it is not likely that the horsemen will be willing to race for small purses without the chance of increasing their bank rolls by betting. If the track shuts down, for even a single day, it will create distrust, among the several hundred owners who have assembled on the grounds and a general exodus will follow. Carter Harrison, the Mayor of Chicago', is reported as saying that under no circumstances will there be anv betting on any race track that lies within his jurisdiction as long as the inlunction remains in force, and. as he Is In the habit of living up to his word, it can be taken for granted that there will not be any betting. BROOKLYN BOYS IN COLLEGE ATHLETICS.

Brooklynitos are noting with pride the Importance which Brooklyn hoys are gaining In the college athletic world. No crew, track, base ball or football team the colleges now but that a Brooklyn boy is a part of it. The Yale 'varsity crew this year has three sons of this bcrough in I he boat and word has just been received that two Brooklynites have made their freshmen crew at Cornell. Ray Nutting, who left Pratt Institute last year with the name of being one of the best poie vaulters and who had ever donned the Pratt uniform, is one. while Ralph Thompson, an ex Adelphi student, is the other.

Thompson was the best all around athlete in the Long Island league last year and won several medals at the annual meet.

QUISETTA DEFEATS ELMINA. Smaller Craft Afford Good Contests. Weather Conditions Favorable to Yachtsmen.

The wind was ablowlng out of the southeast yesterday down on Gravesend Bay. And among other things in its path it struck the waiting sails of a score of pleasure yachts, and, glancing off, sent them over the line, with booms to port, for the start of the thirty fifth annual regatta of the Atlantic Yacht Club. A shrill whistle from the tug F. B. Dalzell, which was used as judges' boat, sent away the craft of the first division at exactly 11:20 o'clock.

It was a beautiful start, the schooner yacht Qulsetta, belonging to H. F. Llppitt, with every stitch of canvas set, being first over, followed closely by the new yacht Elmina, the property of F. K. Brewster, a little to the windward, with the W.

G. Brokaw's Ain orita carrying a perfect fitting suit of yellow tinged Ratsey sans, bringing up the rear, tne beginnmg of the contest among these double slickers was but a sample of the finish, as pretty and close a me as ever witnessed, in which the Quisetta worsted the Elmina, after a luffing match of surpassing interest, by only live seconds actual time. The schooners had to cover a course estimated at nearly 252 miles, taking a buoy off Southwest Spit as one mark aud Scotland Lightship as the other, starting from a line marked by two stakeboats off Craven Shoal. Some close windward work was afforded on the leg to the lightship, and when that mark was rounded the Qulsetta had gained about four minutes on the Elmina, while the Am orita was nearly six minutes behind her nearest rival. The crews of the two leading boatn made very bungling work in setting spinakers and ballooners for the run to the spit, buoy, but, when these sails were finally in place and drawing, both craft went tearing through the brine at a fast pace.

In running back to Southwest Spit the skipper of the Elmina, by working his craft in shore along the Hook, got out of the strong ebb tide a little and gradually picked up on the leader. When the two rc unded the buoy the Elmina had made up nearly 314 minutes on the Qulsetta. On the broad reach home only seconds separated the two leaders, while the Amorita wa3 still minutes in the rear. As the first two boats, with small staysails set, neared Norton's Point, the skipper on the Elmina tried to weather his rival and an interesting luffing match began, which continued until the finish. The two schooners were headed into the wind, toward the shoal oft Sea Gate, until many thought one of them must surely ground.

After, however, a futile attempt, Elmina bore away again for the finish, astern or the Qulsetta with no overlap advantage. After the danger of the shoal was passed the big craft were at it again and the series of luffing maneuvers resulted in a final coup for the Quisetta. who. after both boats had come about and also jibed a couple of times, stood off tor the line and finished a winner by five seconds actual time. So close were the two craft in some of the gyrations to get the better of each other that it appeared from a distance that only a steady hand and cool head could prevent a collision.

While these two yachts were having this scrap all to themselves, the Amorita succeeded in cutting down the lead by four minutes and finished last by only about two minutes. Tho cutter Isolde, owned by F. M. Hoyt, gave the Isolt. belonging to C.

W. Nason, a heating of over ten minutes actual time. These yachts started In the first division. In the other contests the Humma, J. Rogers Maxwell's new Herreshoff creation, finished first in her maiden race, two minutes ahead of the Altair, Cord Mayers sloop, and twenty minutes ahead of the Huguenot, belonging to Edward Kelly.

The Mariquita, owned by B. H. Shaen. sailed a match race against the Ondawa. the property of H.

J. Robert, and was defeated by nearly four minutes. H. L. Maxwell's Leda beat George Hill's Akista by over twenty minutes in a race of 16 miles.

The sloop Selnada. owned by J. F. Acker man, defeated the Siren. C.

F. Wigand owner, by nearly two minutes actual time. Among Hie smaller craft, which were started at 11:33, in the 23 foot class, the Song and Dance. E. F.

College Basket Ball Teams Said to Be Afraid of Brooklynites. Dr. Voorhees. physical director of Pratt Institute, will on July 1 take seven of the school's basket ball players to Buffalo with him, to compete in the basket ball championships. Brooklynites generally concede that Pratt will emerge victorious in the tournament.

Although it. is not acknowledged the college teams of the United States have been very backward about entering the tournament, which is for the intercollegiate championship. No clubs are in the tournament, and it was the intention of the committee to bring 'v'gether the strongest school and college teams. There is, however, a rumor that the college teams have fought shy and that there is but one entry in the event, and that from Pratt Institute. The reason is easily found.

Pratt, during the last basket ball season, met and defeated all of her opponents, including Princeton, Pennsylvania and Columbia. Yale refused to meet the Brooklynites. It is plain that these institutions are no: looking for trouncing at the hands of schoolboys. Dr. Voorhees said the other day that, he thought the entry list would swell before long, and that Pratt would go auyhow.

The boys will go into training on the shores of Lake Erie. SHOOTING AT DEXTER PARK. I Monthly Outing of the Famous Emerald Gun Club.
