mile events.
VIII Bennett, who Is 10 years DID, feet
inches and weighs l3S pounds, is novice,
but when he has had little more expert
ence in hurdling he will come to the finish
near the record.
Will MaGee is another first season man,
but he is good all-around man and ought
to develop into one of the first class.
Ashley Pond is another good man. He
trained for the Yale intercollegiate
team but was out of condition and was un-
able to do anything. Ed Ryan is fast in the

who was here two years ago, sent letter to

As Joseph proved a very shrewd man when

Joe McAuliffe cannot explain his defeat.
He swears that after the third round he
could not seem to do anything. His face is a

blows are all over his face. This defeat
retires him from the prize ring. His friends

GARRISON WANTS TO COME HERE.
The Famous John Asks for the Pittsbure
Clubs Terms

John Clarkson, the pitcher released by the
Boston club and we'll known as the $4,000
man, wants to come to Pittsburg. Yester-
day he wired Captain Burns stating that
he has received his unconditional release
from Boston and can sign with any club he
desires. He aslo stated in his telegram that
he is in good shape and ready to pitch at
once. He wanted TO know what the Pitts
burg club will offer him.
Captain Burns, speaking of the Clarlson
telegram last evening, said: 81 don't know
what we'n do. We cannot afford to give
Clnrkson any big figure. He is n good
pitcher, but ii we sign him somebody will
have to be released. and we do not feel like
releasing any of our pitchers. We need an
outfielder more than anything else.'
1t is understood that an offer has been
made to Clarkson. Negotiations are also
going on between the home club and George
Gore. He may be signed to-day, although a
local official stated yesterday that the club
would like a younger man.

the guiding power here. but beneath the
surface, deep down in the hearts of the peo-
Pile, is the knowledge that the right must

Mr.. Days Protest.

Last evening President Day. of the New
York club, wired protest to President
Young against Charley Mitchell umpiring
to-day's game. Mr.. Days objection is gen.
eral one. He curiously enough admits that
Ewing was out at the plate in the fifth inn
ing, and George Gore. one of the New York
players, admitted that III. Lyons was out at
second in the same inning. 1t is strange
that Mr. Day should make any such contest
as he has done, and doubtless he acted while
feeling sore about such a defeat as his team
suffered yesterday. Certainly he is acting
unreasonably in making protest.
