Jim Whites family is not well enough to allow
of his filing his engagement with Cincinnati, but

Bob Ferguson was interviewed at Cleveland,
Cleveland team the best in the League. OF the
coming champions Bob said: - The Chicagos arc
good hitters but 4 door lot OF felders, They do
know how to run bases, and it seems as If they
made their base-running the principal part Of
their work"
Jim White says he will not play ball this year
unless his family recover from their present ILL
He says If he plays ut all it will DO at Gin
cinnati. "a he has promised to play there and
will keep his word. he has not given up tho
idea Of entering the baseball arena next seii-
sou, and says If nothing happens he will be ready
to pluy ut that time
In reference to complaint from local cor
respondent agninst the new practice of stopping
the game as soon us the winning run has been
scored, We would remurk that the whole matter
is provided for by League legislation, and that
the team which has the game already won at the
beginning Of the last hnif OF the ninth inning, or
ut any point Of its half OF the inning, has no dis
cret1on In the matter; the game ends then and
there.
We want to say to the bulldozing players of
the Chicago nine that thoy must be on their
good behavior when they come tn Cleveland. 4
Cleveland audience would despise one Of their
member of another club and they Will not toll
erato any such action on the part OF any outside
club. "This is official" and don't you forget it.
Cleveland TUtcs. We desire to bear testimony
in this city was .gentlemanly in every respect
both on and of the field. They. played ball for
all it WIS worth, and other clubs would do well
to take pattern by thom.-Iroy Budget.
4 correspondent at Jacksonville, H., writes
for an opinion as between two nlnes-the first
with Goldsmith pitcher Flint Ca catcher Burns
base. Base will williamson third base, and Gore, Dai-
rynple, and Kelly in the outfeld; the second,
with Snyder catcher. .Corcoran pitcher. Start
base, Peters short stop, and York, Manning,
and Relnsen for outiielders. 1t seems almost In
credible that anybody should differ as to the
relative strength OF these two teams. The first
is without individual excepnons-barring the
second in every particular. To the same cor
respondent-Gore has made two home runs;
Kelly aud Auson one each.
