Five Hundred People, Including Policemen, nt Polo Ground. New York, Sept. 6. The Brooklyns threw away today's game with the New Yorlis by fielding like school boys. Rusie came to the rescue of the Polo Grounds players In the eighth, after Gettig had been knocked out of the box, and the "Washington Park crowd held up a white flag as soon as the big Hoosier got to work.

Grim had a finger split in the seventh. Five- hundred persons. Including policemen and players, saw the game. The score: NEW YORK R.H, VanHaltren, cf 2 3 Seymour, 3 Joyce, lb 2 Doyle, ss 1 2 Hartman. 3b 1 Grady, rf 1 Warner, 3 GetUg, 2 Rusie, 0 O.

6. Badly demoralized by the loss of some of their best men and weakened by the presence of players who were in no fit condition to be in the game, the Washingtons gave Dineen such poor support today, especially in the early Innings of the contest, that it was a wonder that he did not go to pieces. It looked as if the Washingtons would be whitewashed when they drew blanks in eight successive innings, but an error by Hamilton gave them a big opening and they gave a little spice to the game by running up a score of five runs in the ninth Inning. They made more than twice as many hits in this one inning as they made in all the rest of the game. Jvlobedanz pitched a grand game for eight innings, being hit for two singles and giving only one base on balls.

Grcnt Catch. "Wrlgley and Smith were the chief offenders in rolling up a big error column for the Washingtons, but the former was so badly crippled that he ought never to bave been called upon to play. Contrasted with the ludicrous errors were numerous brilliant hits of fielding that pleased the spectators mightily. Collins robbed Far-rell of a base hit by a. surprising one-handed stop, and "Wrlgley, who exchanged places with Mercer in the third inning, made one of the greatest catches of the season in the eighth, when everyone though Duffy had hit for three bases.

Lowe and Rietz were artists at second and Anderson did some good work in the outfield. The Senators went out in order quickly In 'the first, but the Bostons ran up a score of three runs on a base on balls to Hamilton, singles by Long and Duffy, with a sacrifice by Lowe and very costly muffs of thrown balls by and Farrell helping out. A -Mntim-e of Errors. Runs were cheap in the second inning and the Bostons got them almost for the asking. McGuire muffed Wrigley's throw to catch Hamilton and Long followed with an infield single.

Lowe hit to Smith and Hamilton was declared out for running out of line. Then the fun began. Collins hit safely to right and Long scored. Wrigley's wild throw sent Bergen to second, and Lowe and Collins trotted across the plate. Wrigley also fumbled Duffy's grounder, but Stahl filosed the inning with a fly to Mercer.

Dineen shut the Bostons out in four successive innings after the second and limited them to two singles, both made In the sixth Inning. But in the seventh they added two more runs to their talley sheet on singles by Collins, Duffy, and Stahl, air! a bad fumble by Smith. In the eighth, after Long had ben retired, Lowe made an infield single, and, after Farrell had made a brilliant catch of "Collins's foul, stole second. Then Bransfield came up to the bat in place of Bergen, and- he lost no time "In banging the ball to left center for three bases, Lowe scoring. Duffy hit the ball in the same direction with even greater force, but Wrlgley went after it with wings and made a magnificent catch.

Scnntorn' Sensational Finlxh. Then came the startling finish by the Washingtons. Dineen sartea off with a bunt, Collins missing the ball on a one-handed catch. Mercer sneaked a single to short right, but Farrell forced Dineen at third with a grounder to Long. Rietz drove the ball to center, and Hamilton dropped it.

This was the opening looked for. McGuire knocked down a single, which Collins barely blocked. Klobedanz apparently had Smith struck out, but Hunt did not Eee it that way, and "Jud" then hit the ball over the left fleld fence so far that he would have made a home run on any open grounds. Five runs were in and the crowd "rooted" for more. Anderson hit safely, but was forced by Donovan, and Wrigley closed the game with a foul to Bransfield.

Claim ChaiupIonHhtn. The Times Is in receipt of the following letter: "The Eastern Athletic Club, having met and defeated every team in the District, Shamrocks included, hereby claim the championship of the District. If disputed send challenge to the manager. E. V.

Rice, 145 Street southeast." A telegram to The. Times last night from Philadelphia states that Arthur A. Irwin and associates, names not mentioned, yesterday purchased a controlling interest in the Washington Baseball Club, and that Irwin will assume charge of the club's affairs on Tuesday next, September 18. The Wagner brothers will retire from all active participation in the management of the club. The action has long been in contemplation by the Wagners, clue in a great measure to the ill-success of the Senators this season.

Arthur" Irwin, the new magnate, is too well known In baseball circles to need an extended introduction to the public. His experience In the selection and development of ball players Is extensive, and as a manager he Is the equal of any in the business today. Irwin's many friends In this city will hail the' news of his coming with delight. He will bring with him to Washington a quintet of players, the flowers of the Eastern League. They are Pitchers Williams, Baker, and Suthoff, Catcher Casey, and Outfielder Freeman.

Casey Is the star backstop of the Eastern League and several major league managers have offered fancy prices for him. He has been playing third base for the Toronto Club this season and his work has been of the gilt-edged order. He has been hitting at the .300 clip. "Buck" Freeman, who has been playing the right field on the- same club. Is known as the Jesse Burkett of the Eastern League.

He is an excellent fielder and a sure batter, and has refused flattering offers to go with the major league. He will strengthen the Washington Cluo wonderfully. Pitchers Williams, Baker, and Suthoff are all clever youngsters, who have done splendid work for their club during the season. Mr. Irwin regards them as promising material for the big league.

i This arrangement, of course, means a shake-up In the present team, but It Is not probable that any radical changes will occur this season. No Transfer of Game. The Times has received a telegram from President J. Earl Wagner, now 'in Philadelphia, stating that the Philadelphia games will be played In Washington as scheduled. STUBENER'S GREAT CARD.

SellineliH vs. W'iHCOiisIiiH. A game will be played at National Baseball Park this afternoon betw.een the Selbach and Wisconsin teams for the championship of the District for teams under nineteen years of age. Ladies will be admitted free. The game will be called at 4 p.

Jud Smith continues to play a beautiful game. A shortstop should indeed be made of Mercer. One more defeat at Boston; then they come home. The Trailers are beginning to climb up on them. What's the matter with styling them the Hey-rubes? It is a case of "chumps" helping "champs" at Boston.

It's a 10 to 1 shot that the Senators will finish last. They come back even an unbroken record of defeat. In the bright lexicon of the Senators there is no such word as win. The "heavy-hitting" Anderson is now seventh on the batting order. Thousands will journey out to National Park tomorrow to see the "freaks." President Ebbitts positively refused to transfer the Labor Day games to the Polo Mr.

Ebbitts said he would not transfer the games even if he were given the entire receipts. The monument to David FouU, the well-known and popular ball player, who was for many year3 connected with the Brooklyn Club, is almost completed. Arrangements will be made for appropriate ceremonies upon its completion. Sir. S.

H. AVnddell, the Pittsburg fan nho Bent the objectionable telegram to Pink Hawley, is not a stockholder in that club. He has written a letter to W. W. Kerr apologizing for his indiscretion.

And now Mr. Bush has assumed a normal condition. Hawley wants to know who gave to the public the contents of that telegram, and ill demand that the telegraph company locate the leak. The Western hall players very probably ask why they were asked to contribute to the benefit of Charlie Ganzell, which was intended as a compliment to him by the local fans of Boston. Charlie Ganzell is not by any means in a stats of mendicancy or want.

He is in much better financial circumstances than two-thirds of the plaers who have been asked to subscribe. If the good people of Boston desired to extend to him the courtesy of a complimentary benefit they should bave done so decently, and not passed the hat around the country and thus give an affair intended as evidence of a friendly appreciation and regard for him as a baH player the appearance of a charity fair. Boxing Carnival at Illuilcnabnrg Tomorrow NiKSrht. The best card, ever the public by Manager Stubene: In the line of glove contests is the one scheduled for tomorrow at his Bladensburg arena. The principal event of the evening will be a twenty-round "go," at 130 pounds, between "Kid" Wilson, of Council Grove, Kansas, and Jack McConnell, of Wilmington, Del.

"Wilson has never given an exhibition before the local public, but he is a good man as his record attests. Among the "pugs" he has knocked out are Charles Bevenger, in one round; George Strong, three rounds; Jack Powell, two rounds; George Lindsay, fifteen rounds; Jim Finney, ten rounds, and Billy Harris, one round. He has fought draws with Walter Nolan, fifteen rounds; Billy Lindsay, fifteen rounds; Johnny Van Heest, four rounds, and Eddie Santry, four rounds. The "kid," above all, Is not of the fake stripe, as was demonstrated by his actions in the match with Hall some weeks ago. McConnell is well known throughout the East, having fought to a draw with such men as Jimmy Handler, of Newark; Charles McKeever, of Philadelphia; and Jack Daly, of Wilmington, Del.

Two preliminary exhibitions will bo given, one of six rounds, bet rcen Arthur Jones and Billy Clinton, and another of four rounds, between Jack Williams, of New Orleans, and Fletcher Wright, of Baltimore, a pupil of Jim Janey. On this occasion, owing to the length of the program, the first bout will begin promptly at 9 o'clock. Will Match Broun. George McCoy writes The Times, stating that he Is ready to match Monk Brown, of Georgia, against Jack Farrell, Kid Wilson, Jack McConnell, or Frank Lawler for a purse or side bet, at 128 pounds.

6. The races at the Fair Grounds" were well attended and the sport was excellent. Five races were on the -program two for trotters, two on the flat for runners, and a steeplechase. The main track was in excellent condition, but the steeplechase course was sandy in places and rather deep, and three-quarters of a mile longer than last year. The jump in the infield Immediately in front of the grandstand was built up 31-2 feet with planks and six inches of dirt above that.

The officials In the judge's stand were John R. Kelly, judge, and Frank M. Hall, timer. Ernest Hall presided as starter. The first race was 'for trotters, 2:45 class, and of the nine carded two were scratched.

Pat was the favorite in the betting, selling at 1 to 3. He got off in the lead and held his advantage to the half, when he broke and was passed by Red Mantle and Sibley, the former winning easily, while Pat regained his form and pulled out second In the first heat, but weakened in the next two, capturing only third money. The second race was for trotters of 2:30 class, and brought together a fair field. Happy Jim opened as favorite at to 5, and was backed down to even money, The start was good and all moved off well, Beeswax getting the lead. Little Joe, a long shot and the pole horse, came up nicely, and cutting off Happy Jim and Beeswax, took the lead and kept it, winning all three heats, with Happy Jim second and Prince A.

third The first of the running races was a half-mile, best two out of three heats, and brought together seven starters. Countess opened and closed in first heat p. favorite, selling at 7 to 5, while the others, Wah Jtm and Valmont, received heavy support for place. "Valmont got off in the lead and kept it, winning In fine style, followed by Wah Jim. This weakened the former, and Wah Jim pulled out winner in the next two heats, with Valmont as second, and Countess taking third money.

The fourth race was a three-quarter mile dash, with nine starters. as nas favorite, selling at 2 to 5, with Knobby and' Gypsey at good place money After twenty-five minutes at the post and a. poor start, Ninas got the lead and kept it, winning in a gallop, followed by Gypsey, second, and Knobby, third.
