Not a Trick.

To :he Editor of The Evening Star:
In your issue of Thursday. referring TO
the election OF president of Columbia Typo-
graphical Union. ii is stated that an effort
was made to trick" Mr.. Kehoe By the dis
tribution of circular asserting that he
owned stock in a certain type-setting ma
cline company, and that, if elected the
printers might expect to see type-setting
machines introduced into the government
printing office.
This statement is unfair. His ownership
of such stock was discussed for days In the
newspapers and circles typographical with
out distinct public denial of the fact ON
tie contrary, ii was alleged that Mr.. Hehoe
reluctantly admitted he was very recently
interested in the company. but had disposed
of his holding. Thus the matter became a
legitimate subject of comment and con-
s;deration on the part of those of the craft
whose livelihood might he affected. and
hence the distribution of the circular could
rot be deemed trick i'm the ordinary
offensive meaning of the word
PRINTER.

The PhiIadeIphin-st. Loui. Trade

Great fun mas been poked at Messrs
Reach and Rogers over the trade of Sui
Ivan and Turner for Cooley, the successes
of the st. Louis club recently being ascrib-
ed to fine work of the two ex-Quakers
But. as Mr.. Byrne would say wait
Cooley has been sick and is fast rounding
to. and lately has been playing a very fast
game, his sacrifice hitting being an eye
opener for his fellow players. Turner has
been sick a great deal since he arrived in
st. Louis and his batting has been very
weak while Sullivan is putting up his
usual fast game that always comes from
him when first introduced to a club. We
had him here in Washington and know his
weak point. Wait until he becomes ac-
quainted with the St. Louis players. Sully
was not released by Philadelphia for poor
playing. The success of the St. Louis club
rests chiefly with Tommy Dowd Won
der Abe is keeping his hands off and Tom
my has persuaded his team to believe that
he knows a little more than they do about

what they did last Wednesday, and again

7 ESTERDAY'S DEFEAT
1t Was a Hard Game to Lose to
Baltimore.
BALL NOTES AND COMMENTS

One of the greatest surprises of the base
ball season was sprung on the Washington
public last night. Joyce was released to the
New York club in consideration for the re-
lease Of Charley Farrell and Carney Flynn
to Washington. Orders were issued to put
the deal into effect at once, and the men
were directed to exchange places in time for
todays games.
Joyce knew nothing of the matter when he
played yesterday afternoon, although at
that time the details had been arranged and
the bargain had been closed Last evening
after the game Joyce was called into Mr..
WaSners office and informed that his con,
tract had expired, and that it was deemed
best for the interests of the team that he be
exchanged for Farrell and Flynn. Joyce
accepted the situation gracefully, and said
that, while he was sorry to leave Washing
ton, he would cheeriuily obey the rules of
base bail and go where he was assigned.
Farrell needs no Introduction to the Wash
ington base ball public. for he played here
during the season of 1898. He and Jouett
Meekin formed the great battery of the
local team. and their sale to New York for
$500 caused one of the greatest base ball
sensations of the time. Since their de-
parture from here they have not done the
same great battery work, and of late Far
reil has been at outs with the New York
management He Is one of the most gen.
tlemanly players on the ball field. and is ex-
tremely popular in Washington. No one
would be more welcome.
Carney Flynn is a pitcher, who, however
has not figured very conspicuously in the
New York clubs play this season, on ac-
count of difficulty he had early in the
year with Freedman and Irwin over a fine
or S2Do. that he considered unjust. He was
suspended. and took his case into the courts
When the league directors met at Pittsburg
recently his case was brought to their at
tentlon, but 1t was decided that they had no
jurisdiction. Flynn has, therefore, been
dead wood on the hands of the New York
management, but through no fault lying in
his talent.
joyce will leave many warm friends in
w ashlngton. He has achieved great popu-
Iarlty here, mainly for his earnest base ball
leadership, and under his management the
local team has scored more victories than
ever before. New York will be greatly
strengthened by him. for that team is sorely
In need of an aggressive captain and joyce
who has played tremendously with Irwin in
the past, is expected to fill the bill AS a
part consideration for his release the New
YORK management pay the Washington club
5000.
1t is understood that Mr.. Wagner is now
actively on the trail of at least three prom
lslnS players of high standing whose re-
leases he can probably secure. He realizes
that the infieid and batting departments
must be strengthened at once and he will
spare no expense or effort to this end
Mr.. Wagner says Mr.. Schnelz will have
charge of the team on the bench and Tom
Brown will be made captain of the nine on
the field.

The Rights Of Buggy Drivers.
70 the Editor of The Evening Star.

During the fifteen years l have been
driving q light buggy on the streets of
Washington I have found several times to
my sorrow that the idea set forth by c.
A. l.. i'm your issue of the 3oth ultimo. lie.
that a light vehicle has no right which
the driver of a heavy one is bound to re-
spect, is by far too common among the
Jehus of Washington.
is ii not about time that some measure
was taken to educate them up tn the fact
that light vehicles, as web pedestrians
and bicycles, are entitled to some of the
rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness which are claimed by the drivers
of heavy wagons? MOORE.

The Louisville management is thinking
seriously of trading Fred Clarke for Her.
man Long, the Boston shortstop, but they
should think twice before they make the
deal. In Jimmy Rogers they have a born
infielder and should give him thorough
trial at short before weakening their team
in batting by letting such a sticker as
Clarke get away. If De Montreville had not
come the Senators way 1t Is very likely
Rogers would have been given a trial at
short. and many local followers of the
game believe he would have proved a win
ner, as he Is a sure catch and a great
thrower. He isn't as big as Mexican and
will soon learn to quicken his movements
up to the pitch required of a shortstop
Herman Long todey is not the boy he was
two or three years ago. All that remarka-
BILE dash is missing this year. and it is a
foregone conclusion that 1t will never re-
turn to a man of his age. The Louisville
management should go en- Anson's rule
that is. when you get good hitter hold
on to him and he will learn in time to
field. Lange always was a great hitter
but at first was as clumsy as a COW in

This will give the team a great infield.
Jake Beckley at first, kid" Gleason at
second. ''Scrappy Bilr' at third and Davis
at short make a combination which cannot
fail to revive the declining interest in base
ball in this city. Ulrich, the minor league
artist, will cover left field until Jim STAFF
ford gets into harness again. which will
probably be in two weeks. Staffords arm
was yesterday taken out of spiints ami the
attending physician said that the member
would be strong enough to bat with in two
weeks.
The Washington management has all
along declared that 1t would not consider
any deal for Joyce. but the feeling between
"Scrappy" and Manager Gus Schmelz had
reached such stage that one of the men
had to leave the club. The team was split
into two factions, a Joyce clique and
SchmelZ's adherents.
While Joyce comes a bit high, there is
no reason to doubt that he will win out
the price of his release before the end of
the season in increased patronage. He is
great favorite in this city, where his ag-
g1essive qualities have always held the add
miration of the local followers of the game
even II he was with the enemy. He Is a
good nelder, full of ginger. and a consistent
batsman Just the kind of man to dovetail
In with Gleason and Beckley.
Farrell's work has been most unsatisfac-
tory of late, and it is thought that the
catcher will also welcome the change. He
came 10 New York from Washington, and
does not go to strangers. The trade really
reads $500 and Farrell for Joyce. because
nobody has any confidence that Flynn will
ever turn out a good pitcher. He is the
young man suspended by President FraeI-
man for INSTRUMENTATION, and has a suit
pending for salary.
There Was Long Dickerinx.
From the New York Tribune.
After dickering for a long time, the New
York and Washington clubs have at last
effected an exchange of players. 1t was
announced at the Polo grounds yesterday
that Farrell and Flynn and s., 500 had been
given to the Senators in exchange for
Joyce. the third baseman. Few people will
probably accept this statement without a
liberal supply of salt. Two years ago the
New York club gave the Washington club
$1,000 for Meekin and Farrell. The man
agement at the Polo grounds is peculiar.
ana no positive statement can be made but
the chances are that Joyce will cover third
base and that George Davis the only really
hrSt-class player left in the team, will be
placed In the Outtield.
