COLD ANsE'' WAS RIGHT.
A BAH Dropped From the Top Of Wash
ington Monument was Caught

A BAH Dropped From the Top Of wash
ington Monument WAS Caught
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2T-Billy Schriver.
the "star" catcher Of the Chicago base
ball club has caught a ball thrown from
the top of the Washington monument,
thus performing a feat which has never
before been accomplis ished Nearly all OF
the prominent ball players who have
visited Washington since the shaft WAS
erected have tried to do what Schriver
did
1t was generally supposed it was be-
yond any mans power TO catch A ball
thrown from such height Year after
year, as regularly the boys would
come from The Garden City to do up the
local club. controversy would arise be-
tween Pap" Arson and II. +. Burney,
chief clerk Of the Arlington. Burney
was wont TO affirm that no baseballist on
earth ever had or ever could catch a reg
ulAtion ball that was tossed from one Of
the windows Of the Washington monu-
ment
Had not Paul Hines. Charley Snider,
Buck Ewing, Hardie Richardson and
falureI 1t " as not IN mortal man, de-
clared Clerk Burney, 20 hold fast TO

sheer space
In the first place the height was too
great TO see the descending sphere and
through the ether the tremendous force
with which it would strike the out
stretched hands would break every bone
in the fingers and Telegate the rash
catcher who essayed the feat from the
ball field forever. AnsOn ever stOutly
maint aimed the contrary. He vowed the
thing could be done.
The years went BY and the argument
was renewed each season, but no trial
was ever made until yesterday. Schriver
was consulted on the subject aud ex-
pressed his willingness TO undertake the
task. A little party was made up and
proceeded to the monument The whole
crowd would have bet two to one on his
failing and Schrlver became rather faint
hearted.
After Griffith and Hutchinson had got
to the top and the former had tossed the
ball from the north window, Schriver's
nerve fOrs 5Ok him aud ne made no effort
to catch it. But instead Of boring d hole
ten feet deep in mother earth as some
said it would d., the leather globe
bounded up about as high as it would
from average hard strike, but no
higher. This encouraged Schr4ver won
derfully. and he resolved that the catch
was no great shakes after all.
The signal was gwen from above and
again the ball was pitched forth. 5chri-
Yer catching il fair and square amid he

request Of Commissioners Herman laid ths
statement aside and answered questiona.
He was particular TO state that
he was not an employe nf
the Pullman company, as the bank
was owned by the Pullman Southern Car
company. but later admitted that the lat
ter company is controlled by the Palace
Car company.
Mr. Bryaut said that the capital stock
Of the bank is 100000, and that Ia July,
1898. the deposits amounted TO about
1868. O0 2,4-5 OF the depoNuofa at that
time were Pullman employees, their Hc-
counts averaging $24J, In July, 1894.
the deposits amounted 70 $453.U0O, with
only 1,4l4 employees accounts which
averaged $40. The witness said that
the Pullman wOrkmen we're paid in
checks.
That ench month they were given two
checks il they rented company dwellings,
one representing the amount Of rent due
and the other The balance ia wages
Mr. Bryant was Questioned sharply re-
garding this system OF paying but em-
phatically stated that there was nothing
compulsory about the men paying lheir
rent
sThe checks are only made for the con-
venience Of the men and they may or
may not indors0 the rent check back to
the company as they choose
lit is just a sort OF gentle reminder
that the rent is due:" suggested Com
missioner Herman.
1t is simply for the men's conven-
ience," persisted the witness.
The bank manager was then riRidly

pany for collecting back rent.
MIR. Bryant was asked about the case
