HEYDLER'S STATEMENT. "Wherein He Shows the Utilldorin Taetiei. Kreediniiii. New York, Julj John A. Hej-dler, who has jat resigned from tne National Joigtie's umjrfre staff, sends the following to the Sun, which speaks for itself: "To the Editor of the ul-Sir: In view of the fact that the president of the New York dub has telegraphed eleven other ctabe and President Young demanding my removal because of the decision rendered by me on the morning of July 4, permit me to gl'e my side of the case: "I declared Davis of Xew York out at soooHd base for the reason that Long of Boston touched him with the ball while hewasinthe act of sliding to the base and had not reached it.

Davis not only threatened to punch mc, out used language in direct violation of the Brush rule. J'll admit I made a mistake In not btispendfng Davis for three days for his kick Mid also in not taking him before the 'board. After the game Mr. Freedman came from the grandstand in an excited manner. Awsoa pointed me out to Freedman and the latter rushed up to me and said: Is this Mr.

'Yes, sir." 1 replied. 'Tlmt was a barefaced robbery out thorc this he said. I asked him what he meant, and he said the decision on Davis at second base. "You've been giving us the worst of it, nd you've got to do better by us," Freedman went on. Jf you make any more decisions like tlmt I'll lock the gates and caution the people not to come when you arc scheduled umpire.

'That's all right, Mr. I rojriied and walked away. ''Laier when I was dressing under the grand stand for the afternoon game, a man whom I believed was Fred Hoet came to me and said: "Freedman is sore on you, and sent me down to tell you that it ws the rawest deal he had ever seen. I recolved tills action as an effort to Intimidate me or Influence my decision and I vish to say there was no good reason for such fault finding. I believe my decision was correct and If the play should come up again, I would decide it the tame way.

I can stand abuse from crowds and players, but when comes from a president of what should be the representative club In the league I think it is about time for me to retire. No other League president has said a word to me. JOHN A. HEYDLER. "New York.

They argue that all the legislation for the last eight years has been in favor of the magnate, and are therefore naturally opposed to any proposed cut In salaries. A prominent player recently spoke on the subject as follows: 'The magnates frequently boast that we can make more money at baseball than at any other calling, and that we ought to thank the game for giving us the opportunity of making such a handsome living, but they forget that baseball unfits lis for any other desirable occupation. A majority of the players will not stand for any attempt to cut wages this season. Of course the magnates laugh at the mere mention of another brotherhood.

They did the same in the Fall of 1SS9, but found the players were prepared for a bitter fight. Though the magnates may not be aware of it, the fact exists that there are one or more players on every league team bound together by a sort of Freemasonry to revolt In the event of a cut in It is reported that the "magnates" of the National League are striving to have the double umpire system abandoned, at least for this season, in the interest of economy. "There tire six or more umpires who certainly ought to be discharged," tald Manager Hanlon yesterday, "because they are absolutely unfit to umpire. I think we could get half a dozen fairly good ones out of the present bunch. I favor the double umpire system, but some of the present staff are worse than useless, because of incompetency.

One good umpire is better than a good one and a bad one, especially If the bad one Is behind the and also where two bad ones get together, while there are two good ones somewhere else. It would seem, however, that the proper course would be to discharge the bad ones and get better In their places. There are more than thirteen good umpires to be got in The following from Browning's Monthly Is very clever and worthy of reproduction: The wind is down and the sun's gone in; Nearly time for the paine to Ixgin (Thej'e toied the pinny and all). There at the plafe the batsman stand, The pitcher is rubbing foiiic dirt on his hands, And the unipiie sajs "Pipy ball!" Thru hej for the drops and, the. lises, The shoots and the liners and all.

Stand by for a lot of surprises. When the 'umpire says "Plajw ball! T.ilk of jour foldfers' iron nerve Ever fetand up to a.fjvj't.put-curyc,?;. Try it ome that's all! Steady the hand and To liairdle the liner ai.d' capture the fly When the unipirp says Then it's lieyl for the heart-iliseai-e catches, And the fumbles and errors and all. There's no other moment that matches Whin the umpire sins "Piny ball!" Two strikes, three halls, two men out; "Crack!" "Pair iialll" Ye gods, what njhout! Grand stand, bleachirs and all! "Out!" "Safe!" "No; it was out, I "Kill 'im!" "Dat mug' don't eamlds' payl" Hut the umpire "Play ball!" Then it'h lay! for the basemen and hatters, And the leather-lunged 'footers Hills, funerals, stocks what When the umpire tajs "Play ball!" Lawjer, minister, millionaire. Scion of leisure and Min of care-Grand stand, bleachers and all.

Saints and sinners suell the ranks. But at 3 p. m. thcj're all ju't cranks When the umpire mjs "Play ball!" Then it's hey! for the singles and doubles, The merry thrcc-liagctre and all. To the deuce with jour worries and troubles When the umpire" says "Play ball" OTtlOLES TAKE TWO.

Never since boxing was first introduced In this city has there been such large purses offered the star boxers to battle for as there are at the present time, says the New York World. 'A few years ago. when the sport was just beginning to become popular hereabouts, the matchmakers of clubs offered purses ranging from 51,000 to $2,500 for all of the popular men, with the exception of Fltz-simmons and Corbett, and, strange to say, the boxers nearly fell over each other In their anxiety to get a match on for these amounts of money.

Since then things have changed considerably with the boxers. They now realize that the sport is bringing in plenty of money these days. They have, therefore, raised the prices on their services, with the result that they are being offered much larger incen-Uves at the present time than they ever did before The purse offered by Tom O'Rourke, of the Lenox Athletic Club, for' the bout between Jim Corbett and "Kid" McCoy which was $20,000 is the largest so far ever orfered by any match-maker for a bout to be decided in New York. This offer is a big one, and only 55,000 less than the purse which Corbett and Sullivan fought for at New Orleans for the championship of the world several years ago. McCy should, therefore, break his contract with the Hawthorne Athletic Club of Buffalo, and agree to box Corbett for that purse.

It is not very often that such a big purse is offered for a contest, and if McCoy does not accept It immediately the chances are that he will never get the opportunity again. If -McCoy does not come out very soon and consent to fight Corbett it is more than likely that Corbett will force him into a match. The first battle between heavyweight pugilists at the Lenox Athletic Club will be decided tonight, when Joe Goddard and Peter Maher will meet In a twenty-live round contest for heavyweight honors. This will be the third meeting between these fighters. On the two former occasions Goddard was successful in giving the Irish champion his quietus.

The firstcontest was a short and fierce battle of three rounds, while the second affair was shorter than that of the Ruh-lin-Sharkey contest the other evening. Maher claims that they were both lucky punches that beat him, and that he was also far from well on these occasions. Goddard, the "old barrier" champion, is preparing himself at a suburban resort close to Philadelphia, and in a letter to Tom O'Rourke says his condition was all that he could desire. In pugilism as In every other business, "the fair, square thing Is the best." No fighter ever lived who had the following that John L. Sullivan had.

He never threw a fight. All the money in the Chatham National Bank couldn't make him lay down. He did dlsapoint the public once, but John Barleycorn was to blame for that. Today the "Big Fellow" lives in the esteem of the lovers of pugilism as McCoy and Choynski never will. Jim Corbett never threw a fight and he never failed to appear in a ring he agreed to enter.

He lost the championship, but today he is far and away the most popular hero in the ring, and as a money maker he is three times more valuable than Fitzsimmons, who defeated him. The sporting world has a long memory and it does not forget that Fitzsimmons, according to his own account, once "laid down" in Australia to Jim Hall for a paltry sum of Unless Peter Maher should see fit to back out there will be a match between the Irish boxer and Jim Jeffries of California In a short time. Recently Billy Delany and Tom O'Rourke had a talk regarding a match. Buck Connolly, representing Maher, was consulted and he said that Maher would fight Jeffries, provided, of course, the purse was made worth the while. O'Rourke agreed to give a purse of $10,000 If the mill is decided at the Lenox A.

C. not later than August 19th. Connolly, after some deliberation, agreed to thirf. and impromptu articles of agreement were signed to this effect. It was learned yesterday that Jim Corbett would challenge the wirfner.

Corbett and Jeffries, by the way. met at the Hawkins-Sullivan contest Friday night. The pair exchanged greetings and shook hands. Corbett asked Jeffries if he would fight him and Jeffries promised that he would In the event of defeating- Maher.
