BASEBALL NOTES.
The Records of the Portlands in.
Batting and Fielding.

Slater Leads in.B oth-Leighto is Second in
Batting, But Terrien is second in Field
ing-The GametToday-JackL eishton's
Sickness.
The following statement, of the stand
ing of the members of the Portland Base
ball club in battingand fielding, is COM
puted from the scores that have been
printed in the PRESS during the past
season. This statement does not include
all the men who have played on the team
this season, but all of those who finished
the season, including but two of the
pitchers, Killeen and Sullivan. There is
noticeable difference between the play
ing of the men during the time previous
to July LIST and the month after that.
There is decided. Improvements in the
record.
For instance, previous to July 1st,
Slater played I'M 80 games. His record
was 100 times at bat, 40 hits, 1896 chances
and II errors. Subsequent to July list. he
played in So games. He had 139 times at
bat, 46 hits, 3l4 chances and only errors.
The improvements is noticeable among
all the players.
TIL? following table gives the record for
the seac0n.
The Portland daily press., 1895-09-14

1t will be seen that 7 errien has the
poorest record in batting, but comes next
to Slater in fielding.
Game Today.
Don't miss the last chance today to see
the Portlands play ball. This is the bene-
fit game remember, and the Association
deserves and needs your patronage.
Woods and Goodhart are the battery for
the Murphy Balsams, and smart contest
may be expected. The running and
throwing contests cannot fail to be of
great interest. Yerrick and Terrien will
be the battery for the Portlands.

DISGUSTED YACHTSMEN.
Dunraven's Boat Preparing to TO
Home.

Isalin Will Race the Valkyrie Anywhere
for Any Amount-Little Prospect of the
Race Off Marblehead Taking Place.
Providence, r. l., September 13-Nat
Herreshoff arrived at Bristol this morn
ing from New York. When asked his
opinion in regard to the outome OF the
cup contests, he said: "The thing dis
gusted everybody. Dunraven had no ex-
cuse for his action, and as far as could
see there was no boat, pilot or any
Valkyrie. The very first race settled it
all in my mind. The Valkyrie was beat
en- and they acknowledged it in their
statements and in their cable dispatches
to the German emperor and others across
the ocean. The Valkyrie is wide boat
too wide. She must be fully ~ ct and
one inch in her beam from outside to
outside. She is too broad for a lumpy
sea such as she encountered yesterday
when she started off to the south in the
half hour before the starting signal was
given. In Tuesdays race the Valkyrie
fell into one Of those choppy seas, and she
went to wallowing about in most
alarming fashion. The crew and whole
party on board appeared to be confused
and unable to do anything with her.
That was the time when the Defender
gained so much on her and came so near
" beating her with only her lower sails
up. Before the race yesterday Dunraven
got into just such sea again. while the
Defender moved right along through the
sea to the starting line, tho Valkyrie was
all in heaps again. The English boat
getting into this fix with her broad
beam did not attempt to start and the
actions aboard the Valkyrie were very
queer. The cup was fairly won again.
The contest Saturday was good one
and the weather just what Dunrayen
and the English builder wanted The
lessons of that first race were valuable
ones for the syndicate members and my
self, and there is much of which I cannot
talk now. In mysopinion the racing is
over ..for this year. do not believe the
British boat wants any contest on any
part OF our cast.
Defender to Haul Up.
New Rochelle, September 13.-The De-
fender arrived in the sound inlet, off Mr..
Iselin S home this afternoon. Mr. Iselin
said he was done with all racing with
t. Defender this year and it was his in
tention to lay up as soon as he could. find
suitable place. Cap Half said the
stories of his alleged disagreements with
Mr.. lselin were all untrue.
