Fails to Appear im Court This Morn
ing but His Lawyer Gives 8aii.
William D. Day, the long distance run
ner and champion cross country run
ner, was arraigned before Justice Potts
this morning for ahearing in a charge OF
enlightenment preferred against him by
Manager Stoner of the Manhattan Laun-
dry Company. When his case was called
he failed to appear. His counsel, Allen
Benny of Bayonne, was surprised, declar-
ing that Day left Bayonne on a car be-
fore him.. He stated to the Court, how
ever. that Day was ready and willing to
answer the charge, and had probably
made a mistake as to the court he was
to appear in Counsellor Benny fur
nished $500 bail for his clients appear
ance next Monday.
Day has been employed by the 1aun-
dry Company as a collector. He was
given a commission of twenty-five cents
on every collection. Manager Stoner, in
his complaint, alleges that he has col
lected SIP, which he. has failed to ac-
count for, Day, on the other hand, say
that he has a claim against the com
pany which equals the amount said to
have been embeZzled.
Days name is familiar to every per-
son interested in athletics. He is a cley-
er all around athlete, and has a host
of friends. Many men offered assis>
lance when he was arrested yesterday,
afternoon at the New Jersey Athletic
aCIit grounds in Bayonne.

WILLIE DAY ARRESTED

The baseball team of the Y. M. c. A.
left town in a somewhat mysterious
manner on last Saturday afternoon, and
the return later in the evening was just
as silent and undemonstrative- Those
who were on the inside" knew that
the team had met defeat, but this news
was zealously guarded from others. This
accounts for the late appearance. OF the
account of the game. Earlier in the
week the team had arranged to play the
Wanser Club at the home grounds but
when it was learned that the Passale
Y. NJ. Q. A. had an open date, the mem
bers resolved to d~issapoint the Wansers
and they did so. The Jersey City boys
were anxious to meet the PASSAGES, and
make amends for the defeat they re-
reived from this team earlier in the
season. Consequently they engaged
catcher Klein of last years Stanton
team; pitcher Verhoell of the Alpines,
and first baseman Enochs of the Pacific
A. c., and sailed forth confident Of
victory.
But they struck a snag, and for nine
innings were kept busy watching the
PASSAGES run bases. The result was a
big surprise to them, as they were de-
feated by ascore of IA TO 5. The Jersey
CITY boys put up a good game, but the
playing of the home team was gilt edged.
il the second inning the PASSAGES scored
five runs. Following is the score:-

ATTENTION! CAPTAIN M,KAIG.

Captain McKaig's police car find plenty
to do these dull times by ~deveting a
little attention to the gang of boys that
.congregate in the neighborhood of Ber-

an antipathy for shade trees, which it
would do well for the police to check.
Some time Sunday night they built a
fire 10 the hollow of a tree On Summit
avenue; Snear Grand street, and although
the fire burned brightly and could be
seen at some distance, no policeman ex-
tinguished it until the tree had been
burned through and the uppe part fell
into the street.
The boys have also succeeded in al
most completely running a large unbrage-
Gus horse chestnut which stands on the
same avenue, though nearer to Grand
