THE EASTERN LEAGUE SHAKEN.
The New Haven Club I'm Financial Straits
Something Must be Done.

The first blow to the Eastern League
has fallen. The New Haven club Is with
out funds with which to pay the players
their salary, which was due last Tursday.
and IL is doubtful what will become OF
the team. IL Is understood that
the Eastern League Is sound
so far as ready money in the
treasury goes. The basis on which the
Eastern League started out was that 10
per cent. OF each days receipts of every
club should go into the general treasury,
to be used in just such cases as this. But
if the Eastern League undertakes to
shoulder the New Haven team thus early
in the season. IL will find heavy load on
its hands before the summer closes. A city
that cannot support team for two
months il better out OF the
league than in IL. IL the ten
club circuit Is TO be kept agoing,
it would be better for all con-
cerned TO transfer the entire New Haven
team to some other city. where IL would be
sure OF support for at least a month than
TO 10 down into the treasury OF the
Eastern League and make the New Haven
people n present of sport which
they-will- support themselves. A
meeting Of the Eastern League has
been called for tonight when the
affairs of the New Haven club will
be discussed and something definite ae-
cided upon. In the meantime President

Sullivan on for New York.

BOSTON, June 17.-Last night John l..
Sullivan left for New York to make final
arrangements in connection with his
training quarters, and to secure supplies
that will be needed while at work. II is
understood that Sullivan intends to train
at Oyster Bay, l.. l., but IL is not fully
settled yet. The "Big Fellow" will con-
fer with Phil Casey on the subject. The
physical measurements taken by DIR. Sar-
gent are not the ones that are to be in-
corporated In Sullivan's book, for new
ones will be taken when he reaches per-
feet condition.

Current Sporting Gossip.

NEW HAVEN, June 1.-THE Providence
yesterday py smeering the New Haven's
all over with defeat, and then rubbing it
in. The defeat of Wednesday was bad
enough, but yesterdays was something
terrible. 1t would have been bad enough
had the Grays been satisfied when they
got through with the first inning with
five runs, and let it go at that, but they
kept right on as If to see how big mon
keys they could make of the home team
IN nine innings. IL was an agonizing
sight for the 500 spectators to see their
pets defeated just like so many school
boys.
The first inning was enough to strike
terror TO the heart of anybody who has
any local pride in seeing the home team
win. 1t was hair-raising inning, and
when it was over several long-drawn- out
sighs were heard in the grand stand as IL
from someone recovering from faint.
IL all happened in this way Friel came
up first and flied out, Mack got hit and
Petit flied out. Then Farrar sent one
down to Donnelly, which got by him and
Farrar and Mack were safe on first and
second, whence they scored when Hor-
nung pounded out single which Gas.
sian allowed to get by him, and
as which Hornung got to sec
,ond. Leighton hit safely aud Hor-
nung was on third. A two-bagger by
Smith brought Hornung aud leighton
home, and Leo crossed the plate on
Ryan's two-bagger. Kilroy, the ninth
man up, expired at first aud the trance
was over, with the Grays five runs ahead.
After that IL was easy sailing for the Wis
itors. They pounded Mr.. Gruber Just
about as they pleased for sacrifices, sim
giles and doubles and by the time the nine
innings were over he decided that he
wasn't In IL. The score:

Boston Run Yeste rday.
BosToN, June 17.-Another relay bicycle
race was begun yesterday, the route be-
ing from the New York post Office to the
Boston post Office, and the relays vary in
distance from 10 to 16 miles. The start
vas made at o'clock in the morning,
and it was expected the message would
be delivered in Boston at o'clock last
night.

result was big surprise. Hoyland Smith

message from that point to the Boston
post Office, arrived at 5.51 yesterday after
noon. The bicycle record Is therefore
broken.
The message left New York at 8 q. m.
Thursday and reached Bridgeport at 710
a. m. on time. From this point to Boston
time was constantly gained and at the
finish the message was ! hour, 40 min
utes ahead of time. The whole run oc-
cupied IA hours. 81 minutes.

NEW BAvES, Conn, June 17.--In case
that Yale wins the boat race with Hsr-

will be arranged with oxford University

loath TO undergo the three months mid
summer training and voyage across the
Atlantic necessary to the race, and the
Yale faculty Is opposed on principle TO
carving any branch OF athletics TO such
extremes az international contests.

PrTrsBuRdn, pa, Feb. 11.--It.has just
been developed that Miss Alice Mitch
ell, the Memphis, Tenn, girl who muir.
dered her friend Frcda Ward, had been
carrying on n correspondence with
Thomas T.. Roger, a young panof this
city, for six months under the maine Of
her victim. Young Rcgercaine to Pitts
burgh from West Virginia last spring,
and having plenty Of time on his hands,
advertised In Il matrimonial paper for II
young lady correspondent. Among
the answers was. one from Miss Mitchell,
who gave Miss Wards name. Roger
never knew he was corresponding with
Miss ilitchcll until after tho tragedy.
Tho day before tho murder was COM
mittcd Roger answered Miss MitchelPs
last letter, which had been received q
few days previous. lie addressed 1t,
rs usual, to Miss Frcda Ward. The
letter arrived OH the day OF tho murder,
and was turned over to the police.
AT the request Of the Memphis
authorities Roger sent her last letter to
Chief OF Police Davis.
Roger is steady young man and feels
much put ont over The affair. Tho Mem.
phis police think there is man behind
tho tragedy and Roger is afraid he will
be spotted rs 'the man in the case"
lie stated that he never contemplated q
visit to Memphis, but Miss Mitchell had
invited him to pay visit to her on sew
eral different occasions.
II was learned that detective in the
city has been trying TO locate Roger for
some time past, with tho intention OF
finding out all he knows OF Miss Mitch
ell. At the time Roger started TO core.
spond with Miss Mitchell, young East
Ender had made arrangement 10 corrc-
spond with n friend OF Miss Mitchell,
but his first letter to the young lady
came back by way OF the dead letter
office. It's thought the friend was Miss
Johnston, who had assumed the name
for the occasion.
twill be remembered that on Janu-
airy % Miss Mitchell murdered Miss
Ward in daylight on the streets OF
Memphis, bycutting her throat with a
razor. Tho murderess is the daughter
OF retired merchant and her victim
the daughter OF wealthy planter Of
Gold Duet, Ark. 1t is now bclieyed
that the case was one Of woman iniatu-
ated with woman and the deed was
committed in fit OF jealousy. Miss
Mitchell is now in jail awaiting trial.
1t is believed that her defense will be
insanity.

Brooks, Il colored lady, was set on and
viciously beaten up in colored board
ing house, kept by Mrs. Clark, in the
Sixth ward, BY Mrs. Clark and, Mabel
Madison. The fight originated over a
colored boarder whose affections they
were striving ior. Beer glasses were
used and Mrs. Brooks was terribly cut
up about the head. Lately Mrs. Brooks
created a scene by swallowing the con-
tents OF package OF snuff before the
eyes OF Constable Cunningham, who
had warrant Tor her arrest, pretending
that that stuff was poison and she con-
templated suicide. Her husband has
left her. Both women were held in five
hundred dollars for their appearance.
