THE LOS ANGELES TEAM ROBBED
The San Joses Awarded the
First Half.
A Game Won by Los Angeles Given
to Oakland.
The Score on Yesterdays Game to in
Favor of San Jose-The Los Angeles
club Likely to Be Withdrawn
From the California League.

SAN Francisco, July A.-[Special to
the HERALD. l-"Another cloud on an
other championship. pllleave il to any
fair minded man in the stand whether
or not McVey caught that ball"
These were the words of Captain Glen
alvin after Umpire Gagus had called
Bslsz out on fly ball to short right
center that McVey came in for very fast,
STOPPING almost to the ground to scoop
il up, and then tossing it to Ebright
on the run. This happened in
the ninth inning. Two men were out
and Hulen, who had made hit, had al
most crossed the plate with the run that
would have tied the score had Gagus
not called Balsz out. Many who were
in the right field seats and who did not
care which team won, said that McVey
first scooped and then caught the ball
as it was coming down. Others swear
that he caught it fairly. If be caught
it, the catch was one of the best ever
made here. If he did not, it was one Of
the finest baseball bluffs that could have
been made and closed as close and ex-
citing game as was ever played here.
Ten thousand people saw the game
and made the Los Angeles team favor
ite. Poor work behind the bat was the
principal cause of the defeat of the Los
Angeles team. Roach pitched six in
nings in fine form, but was taken out
at the start of the seventh and Balsz
substituted. But one hit was made off
the ''Phenom," but that was home
run drive by Harper, who turned in the
winning run. The playing OF Stafford
at short, in spite of his three errors, was
one of the brightest features of game
that was full of brilliant plays of all
kinds. Harper, who pitched for San
Jose, was hit hard, but not safe, the
splendid work of the San Jose outfield
cutting off a number of what should
have.gone as cafe shots.

THE GREAT Yo rAMBIEN.
A Los Angeles Boy Writes About the
Crack Bang Tail.


Johnny Watson, Los Angeles boy
now at Washington Park, Chicago,
writes the HERALD as follows under
date of July 18th: ST think that Yo
Tambien can beat anything here,
weight for age, at any distance. She
goes out and makes her own pace and
kills them off as fast as they come up to
her. Faraday is the next best to Yo
Tambien. He ran mile and quarter
yesterday fairly easy in 2:07A. They
were thinking of matching him against
Yo Tambien. The owner of the Cali
fornia mare savs he will 20 them for
any part of s100, 900, and will let them
name the distance, the mare to take up
Ill and the colt 116 pounds. G. W.
Johnson is the best 2year. old in the
west. He easily won the Hyde Park
stakes. The racing has been very poor
this year. Our stable (Ramsdell) has
not made start yet. We go to Sara
toga next week. Homer is now fit to
race, and will be given race or two be-
fore he ia shipped to New York. The
California delegation are always glad to
get a HERALD to see what ia going on in

ItalY.s New Primo N1inister.

Signor Giovanni Giolitti, the new Ital-
ian premier, is said to be the youngest
head of ministry that Italy has had
since Cavour. He is barely fifty years
of age, and has only been in parliament
ten years, In the caricatures Of him in
The Don Chisciotte he used to be rep
resented, owing to his being one of the
tallest of the deputies, by what might
be called hop pole clad in a long over
coat and very high silk hat. When he
was twenty-five he took his degree. of
doctor of law, and in 1876, when Signor
Depretis was in power, he had become
director of customs. Signor Crispi made
him minister OF the treasury in March,
1889, and in November, 1890, minister
of finance. A month later Signor Clio
litti resigned, owing to difference with
the minister of public works, whose ex-
penditure he wished to cut down. He
then helped to bring about the fall Of
the Crispi cabinet. Signor Giolitti is
the leader of the Piedmontese group Of
the left center.---London News.

The leaguers returned to the city late
last evening, and from members of the
party it was learned that the accident
occurred on Saturday evening while
'cremating dull care" This is cere-
mony that is religiously gone through
with by the league at their an
nual outings. An image of a
man stuffed with pyrotechnics,
is used to represent dull care, and this
is put on a bier, carried to the beach
and set on fire. 1t happened this time
that among the fireworks was bomb
made of piece of gas pipe. This was
overcharged with powder and exploded
with great force, scattering pieces in all
directions. Whitelaw was struck on he
shin by fragment of iron, as related in
the dispatch, and the bones badly
fractured. He was carried at once to a
car, and piece of bone removed, and
the wound dressed by DIR. Weldon, who
was one of the party. On Sunday morn
ing the wounded man was brought to
the city and is now under the
care of DIR. Bryant. His injury is
quite serious, but it is not thought that
it will necessitate amputation.
Lawyer Cooper, the other man hurt,
was struck over the heart by piece of
iron and knocked down, but soon re-
covered. He took part in the ball game
yesterday afternoon, which shows he
was not seriously injured.
Aside from this accident the leaguers
had very pleasant picnic. There was
plenty to eat and drink, and the pro-
gramme OF sports was quite elaborate, a
baseball game being the principal fea-
ture. Don Marco Forster and his
vaqueros gave very entertaining ex-
hibition OF bull batting.

Maben will take his string through
what is called the grand circuit of Cali

hung up by the northern associations
this year. Lucy B. has been turned oul

BASEBALL COMMENT.
Something About That Protested Game
DeCision.

Something About That Protested Game
Decision.
The first half goes to San Jose. That
is the very unsatisfactory news which
comes over the wire from San Fran
cisco. 1t is very unpalatable for sew
eral reasons. In the first place the re-
suit hung on protested game. 1t
has been understood down here that no
disposition had been made of the pro-
tested game, consequently there was
much difference of opinion as to the
outcome. If the game won by Los
Angeles was awarded to Los Angeles, as
it should be, then Los Angeles would
have won the first half; if the game
were thrown out altogether, San Jose
and Los Angeles would then be tie, but
according to the San Francisco papers
the game has been awarded to Oakland,
which would give San Jose the first
half. Here is what the Examiner says
In Saturdays paper:
"At the Haight-street grounds, this
afternoon, the fight for the champion
ship in the first half of the present
season will be made by the San Jose and
Los Angeles teams. When the Dukes
step on the field they will be six points
ahead OF Los Angeles, having won the
same number and lost one game less
than their opponents. By results of
actual playing, the Los Angeles team
should be in the lead, but game Oak
land PLAYED in Los Angeles and lost was
protested by the tail-end manager, the
protest allowed and the game taken from
The southern men and given to Oakland.
And that is how San Jose is now in the
lead. Mr.. Van Derbeck made no OBJ.
lection to the protest, and if the mag
mates are satisfied. they seem to think
the public should be-"
w.
The Los Angeles public is not salts
fed. Why should it be? 1t is clear
case of robbery. The impression pre-
vailed in this city that Los Angeles
had only to win one game out of the five
from San Jose to get the pennant. Many
bets were made on this understanding.
At the very last minute the information
is forthcoming that the protested game
has been awarded to Oakland. The de-
cision ie rank, but that is not here or
there lust at present. Why was the de-
cision suppressed until the result of the
race hinged ON the protested game? The
California league management is ante
deluvisn. 1t lie worse. 1t would be no
libel to call it rotten. Los Angeles has
helped the California league out oi
big hole this season and is certainly
entitled to square deal. Every San
Francisco paper holds that Los Angeles
is entitled to the protested game. This
city has won the first half fairly and
honestly but is juggled out of the honor
on technicality of the most trifiing
character.
s4a
No wonder that all admirers of square
sport in this city are disgusted. 1t will
take them some time to get over theil
disgust. Los Angeles has been treated
in q most shabby manner. After be-
ing robbed out OF game, the Californis
league should at least have made an
official announcement of that fact This
much was due to the people who had
plsnked up their money in such liberia
manner to make baseball success in
Los Angeles.

The festivities of the Union league at
San Juan were marred by an accident
that robbed the occasion OF much of its
pleasure, as the following Associated
Press dispatch from San Diego shows:
SAN DIEGO, July 24.--The members of
the Union League club of Los Angeles
were spending few days at Capistrano,
and yesterday various entertainments
were given, including fireworks at night.
One piece exploded prematurely before
leaving the ground. Frank Whitelaw
had his right leg shattered below the
knee by flying fragments. Amputation
will probably be necessary. Alfred
Cooper, Los Angeles attorney, was
struck in the breast and knocked sense
less. Both men were removed to a
private car, where they received sur
gical attention.

***


While we have been railroaded out OF
the first half, still the Los Angeles man
agement should be censured for taking
so many chances after having almost q
cinch on the first half. Two passed
balls in almost every game is not base
ball. The attempt to 60 through the
last trip without regular catcher has
proved costly experiment. The warn.
ing OF parties interested in seeing the
pennant come to Los Angeles was dis
regarded, whether from economic mo-
tives or over-confidence the writer
knoweth not. With good catcher Los
Angeles would never have lost three to
San Francisco. But it will now do no
good to Cry over spilled milk.

The team has been handicapped for

but is very hard loser. He has worked

days game must have broken his heart.
