WOULDN'T be AN UMPIRE.

Dan Campbell Unwilling to BE Pub
licly Abused.
President Young of the National Base
Ball League, discussing the names Of men
proposed for the staff of umpires, is quoted
by New York paper as saying:
81 have a letter from Dan Campbell of
Philadelphia, who, as everybody knows, is
an excellent umpire, positively refusing to
accept an appointment on the staff. His
present salary is much smaller than $3.50
month, with travelling expenses paid, but he
it not willing to submit to the abuse that is
now being inflicted upon an umpire. 1t Is
out of the question to talk about Lynch, for
he will not umpire in the league this sea-
son. Some of the very men who are de-
handing the appointment of Tim Hurst and
Charley Snyder have denounced them here
in Washington and elsewhere thoroughly
incompetent. Umpires, like men in other
walks of life sometimes make mistake,
but this style Of kicking against every close
decision has been cultivated to such an ex-
tent that it can only be rooted out by the
strong hand of the men who are financially
interested in the success and continuance of
the league. There are some of the officers
of the league who exercise a controlling in
fiuence over their players, but there are
others, regret to say, who are disposed to
encourage their men to believe that there is
a scheme on the part of the umpires to de-
prive them Of victory"

New York Must Be Proud of Him.

Umpire Durham was the star feature of
yesterdays game at Philadelphia. Almost
at the start the New York players began
roasting him, and they kept it UP until the
last man was out in the ninth inning. Capt.
Doyle questioned nearly every decision, and
at the close of the fourth inning, when
Reilly worked the business end Of double
play by stopping Clarkes grounder, touch
ing Farrell out on the base line and throw
ing the ball to Boyle in time to head off
Clarke, the New York captain rushed up to
Burnham and called him vile name. The
latter lost his temper completely and after
filming Doyle s100 put him out of the game
The two men had wordy alteration,
which ended by Doyle being ordered off the
grounds.

discussing the relative chances of the Lon
don Athletic Club and the New York Ath-
letic Club in their coming contest. The
writer thinks the former ought to win the
quarter and half mile, the three miles and
the 100 yards events, while the hammer
throwing and the long jump are good things
for America, and the others are doubtful.
1T will be a battle of giants" the article
says, land we are confident that the Lon
don Athletic Club will secure seven events
out of the eleven.
with regard to the Cambridge-Yale
match, the quarter mile and the half mile
are certainties for Cambridge, the hammer
throwing. the weight putting, both jumps
and the 100 yards are secure for Yale and
the others are doubtful; but it Is probable
that Yale will win the odd event, and pos
sibly seven out of the eleven"
