an interesting game at that.
Crooks is hardly fit to play, but he is

work in both games.

SORE AT BOSWELL.
Manager SchmelZ was considerably work
ed up this morning over the conduct o I Bos-
well.
He promised faithfully to be here on
Monday" said the manager, but didn't
come, wiring that he would surely he here
on Thursday. When that time rolled around
Boswell again failed 10 turn up, and nothing
has been seen or heard of him since, ane
now he don't need to trouble himself about
coming. We don't want him. In my Judg-
ment, Gilroy is better pitcher than Bos-
well, and we can utilize him.
Schiebcck is on his feet to-day, but there
is little prospect of his getting into the
game soon. Tom Browns finger was not
hurt as badly as it looked to be yesterday.
and, barring a little stiffness, will be all
right for work this afternoon.
SCHMELZ IS HOPEFUL.
Manager schmelz thinks the Senators
have a pretty good chow to move up few
pegs in percentage to-day and Monday. 1t
is looked upon as a foregone conclusion
that Baltimore Will beat the Browns, and
there is good chance for the Senators to
beat the Colonels, Notwithstanding their
badly broken up condition. On Monday
Labor Day-Baltimore and st. Louis will
play two games.
If the weather is good, the Senators and
Colonies will also play two games on Mon
day, and on Tuesday the same clubs are
scheduled for another double header.
Jim MCGUIRE, 1t will thus be seen, has a
pretty healthy looking job before him, but
Jim is an untiring and game worker, and
he will not be found wanting when his task
is done.

at the announcement that Collins and Jim
Cavanaugh win fight in Dallas on Sep
tember Z. 1t is admitted in official circles
that this fight is being arranged in order
to get the question of validity of the Texas

Fitzsimmons fight.
The Eastern Shore Fair closed yesterday
at Onancock, Va, 1t was the most success
full event ever given by that organization
The attendance throughout the four days
was unprecedented. The races were the
chief attraction. The Eastern Shoremen
take great pride in the horses raised In
their part of the Old Dominion, and the
exhibition of speedy ones at the fair was
interesting and most gratifying.

UMPIRE BURNHAM TALKS
Gives His Opinion Of the League and
Those Who Run 1t.
Says the Umpire's job Ia Not a Pleas
ant One-HanlOn Is the Great
est Of the Managers

Baltimore, Aug. 31.-George W. Burn
pire of the National League, will leave
for Chicago tonight. where he will in the
future give his undivided attention to his
three boot t-blacking parlors.
II am free now to talk of the national
game ard umpiring," said Mr.. Burnham.
~ want to say that the double-umpire
system is the best that could be devised
IL the umpires are sustained by The mag
mates. The latter lay down rules, and
then when decision is rendered against
their club they are the first TO kick 30
long as this continues the umpires po-
sition will be an undesirable one. He
must be upheld.
I'm my short service on the staff have
had trouble in Boston and Brooklyn. When
sent Tommy Tucker to bench, Conant held
up his hands III holy horror, and told me
such thing had never been heard of before.
Then, In Brooklyn. when l served Manager
McCloskny, who was on the coach line, in
the same way for offensive criticism, and
followed it up by taking McDcrmott out of
the box, there was big howl.
IAN umpire must be firm and never
change a decision. If he does SO he com
mits professional suicide. In the umpire
business a man has more chances TO make
mista kes than in am other work kno W of.
yet he must never admit he's in the wrong"
Speaking OF the Baltimore club. Mr.
Burnham said: They should win the
pennant now with comparative ease. Han
Ion is the greatest manager I've ever seen,
and I've run across a few In my time. He's
brainy and understands how to manage
men"

MADE A CLEVER CAPTURE
Detectives Land an Alleged Horse
thief and Recover Property.
John Ockershason's Rig and Another
Buggy Found at Landover,
Maryland.

Detective Joe Carter and Policeman Brown
this morning made a clever capture of Q
horsethief, Dick Stanton being the pris-
oner.
On August 10 the horse and wagon OF
John Ockershason, a pickle dealer, were
stolen from B street, south OF the Center
Market.
The larceny was reported to police head
quarters and circulars describing the rig
sent all over the country.
Detective Carter was assigned to the case;
and worked on ii until a few days ago,
when he received postal card from Con-
stable James Brady, of Landover station,
Nd, stating that a suspicious-iookiDg col
ored man had been in the neighborhood
trying to sell horse and carriage.
In the meantime Mr.. Hugh Waters, of E
street, near Second southeast, reported
the loss of a carriage.
Detective Carter went to Waters house
at once and both he and Waters started
for Landover. At that place the horse OF
Mr.. Ockershason was found in the stable
of a man named Tucker, to whom Stanton
had sold it.
Then Mr.. Waters buggy was found in
McGruder's blacksmith shop, at the same
place.
What had become of Ockershason's wagon
the detective could not surmise till Waters
chanced to remember a wagon answering
the description of the lost vehicle was
standing in an alley near his home.
When the men reached Washington with
the horse and carriage they went immedi-
ateiy to the alley and there found the
missing wagon.
The thief had apparently unhitched Mr..
Ockersbason's horse from the wagon and re-
hitching the animal to Mr.. Waters car
riage drove to Landuver station.
To-day Carter and Brown arrested STAN
ton on Capitol Hill for the theft and had
him committed to jail

Times are not like they used to be for
BOXERS" said big Billy Woods to Times
| man yesterday. "A few years ago a boxer
with anything like good reputation could
! find plenty of work at good pay. They
were not as numerous then as they are
now. You can find them by the score every
where these days, and any sort of pay for
their services is eagerly grabbed at. 1T
is only the best of them who are wanted
by good clubs now. and at that the money
hung up is not what it was a few years
ago. About five years back held an en-
gagement here at Kernan's. l was meeting
all corners, and my salary was $500 week.
That was but one of many Jobs of the same
sort that held during my earlier boxing
days"
Joe Lyons, who stated through The Times
yesterday that he was ready to meet any of
the boxers here at 1873 pounds, is a clear
eyed, healthylooking young fellow, who
acts and talks as though lie meant just
what he said, and it is not improbable that
irhc is given chance he Will render good
account of himself. Lyons is built on the
racehorse order, though he is apparently
but little work would be needed to put him
in good fix.
There was talk around the Eureka Club
headquarters yesterday about finish go
between Jack DAILY and Mike Leonard. The
latter was seen at kernans during the
afternoon and expressed willingness to
meet the Wilmington man in such a bout.
There was also talk about a match being
fixed up between DAILY aad Hite Peckham,
but it is hardly likely that this will come TO
anything.
The report was spread around town yes
terday that Eugene Herman, manager Of
the Lyceum Theater, who declared after
the Leonard-Connors melee on Wednesday
night that he would have no more gu ch af-
fairs in his house, had relented, ana tnat
Leonard would meet Howard Wilson again
last night, aud Jack Daily tonight After
the report had been published Times man
met Mr.. Herman, who emphatically stated
that he had not changed his mind, and that
he would not change it. He had quite suf-
ficiency Of the boxing business, he said.
and would have no more of it in his house.
FitZsimmons seems to be laying great
store by Corbett's going crazy when he faces
him in the ring. He ought not bank too high
on this. Jim may fool him.

The question rs to which is the greatest
race horse. Joe Patchen, Robert J :, or John
r. Gentry, seems to be open yet. When
these famous PAGERS get together one gets
so much the better OF the other that the
beaten ones cannot be rated as at their best,
And no one is satisfied with the result So
it was with the PatcheD-Gentry race at
Chicago; so it was with the Patchen and
Robert j. races at Cleveland and Buffalo,
and SO 1T was with the race at Fleetwood on
Thursday.
The hardness with which the California
colt, Crescendo, won the Dash Stakes at
Sheepshcad Bay on Thursday has stength-
eDed the belief that he is as good, if not
better. than Requital, who beat him for the
Futurity. The distance was five furlongs
and Crescendo ran it with 122 pounds up in
1:02, going home in a common gallop
There is much talk of getting Requital and
the question of superiority.
