southern end of that busy thoroughfare. the
Mascots winning by the close score of 8

1t was a hot game from start to finish,
and that the Potomacs lost the contest was
very disappointing TO their friends, who had
hoped for 4 victory and the wrestling of tie

their bold on first place by winning. AS
il turned out, the Potomacs dropped down

this evening at s O'Clock there will be IL
meeting Of tile lea que on the third floor of
TIE Times Building. and, as business of
the deepest interest to every club in the Or

sentation is desired.
Tomorrow the two new aspirants for the
trophy will meet at Arsenal Park. AS this
will be the first game these clubs have
played. nothing is as yet known of their
strength. but both teams are very confident
of holding their end up in the race and of

THEY WILL USE BICYCLES
Nine Police Sergeants to Be Pro-
vidad With Wheels.
aior Moore Is Highly Gratified With
the Success Attained by Sergt.
Daley of the Fourth Precinct

The beginning OF the fiscal year, July / i,
VIII see one police sergeant in each Of the
nine precincts mounted ON bicycles. This
innovation resulted from the success sergt.
John c. Daley has met with on his wheel.
The bicycle sergeants will have 10 con-
nectiOD with the squad Of blue coated wheel
men who are engaged in enforcing the
bicycle regulations. They will he con
fined TO their respective precincts, and pur-
sue their regular avocatiun, as well as
'scorchers,' should any of the latter yio-
late the law in their presence. II is
probable that the mounted sergeants will
be:
First precinct, Sergt. Moore; Second,
sergt, koncher; Third, Sergt. .Keefe: Fourth,
sergt. Daley; Fifth, Sergt. Wright; Sixth
sergt. Faivey; Seventh, Sergt. Volknlan;
Eighth, Sergt. Montgomery; Ninth, Sergt
Wall.
There are three sergeants In each pre-
cinct. Their principal duty is TO visit the
patrolnen aud see that they areperforrnine
their duties properly. The sergeant is also
required TO do many other things ON his
rounds, aud is in charge OF the station
house during the absence OF the lieutenant
Major Moore is convinced that with one bi
cycle sergeant in each precinct their duties
can be greatly facilitated
Since Sergt Daley received permission
some weeks go, from Lieut.. Vernon to ride
lis wheel during the tours OF duty, he has
made crap shooting in South Washington
back number, and the policemen have
found that it is more difficult to noodle
than it was before. The first day Dale,
made the rounds on his bicycle he broke
up five Sunday crap games and captured
four of the players. He was enabled L
glide silently into the alley before the
players could be alarmed by the lookout
and surprised them in the act.
On the same tour of duty he came upor
two of his former trusted patrolmen at
O'Clock in the morning "hoodling'' in a.
old stable. Both were stretched out asieep
one of them using his helmet as pillow
Thetwo men are now under charges. Thes,
facts were brought to Major Mooe's atten
ton, and the forthcoming bicycle ser.
geants are the result.

Rowdyism Not to Be Tolerated In
the Windy City.
Chicago. H., June 29.-President Hart
asdssued extraordinary orders in connec-
ton with today's ball game with the
Cleveland Club. The Chicago official has
asked for a strong force OF policemen to be
at the grounds, and he says that the first
player in the game who utters an audible
oath or provokcs riot by rowdy actions will
be arrested and taken before the police
authorities.
Mr.. Hart says: we will take the matter
in hand if the League will not. That crowd
has be EN- hurting baseball and financially in
juring not only the Cleveland team, but all
the others. and we simply viii not stand
such behavior in Chicago. Their words and
actions have driven away the ladies and the
better people from Cleveland games. aud we
propose To protect those who come to
our grounds.
The umpires have dealt too easily with
the Cleveiands. The umpircs' excuse always
has been that the League won't stand by
them.
The League favors decent aud clean ball
and will uphold any umpire enforcing its
laws. The trouble seems to tie that Prcsi-
| dent Robson will not insist on making his
men change their methods. The civil law
| may provoke more respect in Tebeau than
fines of umpires''
