Sunday morning. There are two theor-
les as to the manner In which he was
injured. One Is that he was walking to
his home cast OF Elm Grove, from
Wheeling. and was struck by nm cast

is that he was stealing a ride from
Wheeling and was thrown of and In
iured while attempting to get on the
rapidly moving train. Probably the
latter theory Is the correct one.

MURNANE's OPINIONS.
President Murnane. Of New England League
Speaks Of the Good Players.

President Murnane of the New Eng
land League speaks as follows of the
various players of the New England
league in the Boston Globe.
While the Boston club was filling
dates in the west | had a good chance
to see the New England League players
at their best.
think it would be an easy matter
to pick a full team from this league to
hold position in the league race.
In Yeager of Pawtucket, Butler of
Augusta, Shea of Brockton, Murphy of
New Bedford and Duncan of Portland
saw players who could hit catch and
throw as few national league men can.
There are no glass arms. but on the
contrary, Il disposition to go in day
after day.
Butler of Augusta is perhaps the best
all-round man of the lot. when baSe.run-
ming and headwork is added to the
qualities named above. Rupert of Fall
River is another good man, as well as
Hayes and Roach of Bangor.
| was surprised to see the fine pitchers
Of this league Williams of Lewiston, a
young player, had remarkable speed,
good control and mixed them up. He
is natural hitter. fast runner and sure
to land on top, if properly handled.
Newell Of Augusta reminded me of
John NJ. Ward when he started out with
Providence in 1873. He is not a strong
man. but has excellent curves. good con
troll and the brainiest pitcher in the
league.
Wheeler of Bangor is about the build
of AL Maui Of Washington. and a grand
hitter; he has fine control, speed, and
the cross fire down fine.
Klobedanz of Fall River is a big,
strong fellow. with left hand delivery
and GOOD control. Kloby can mix them
up. and is a great hitter
Stevens of the same club is a vSlua-
BILE man. with good speed, and quite a
clever nut
Braun of New Bedford has great
staying powers. with speed, perfect con
troll, and mix-up delivery. He can
hit, run and play ball.
The Brockton club has three strong
pitchers. Jim Korwan can pitch nine
innings with as much speed as ever
did Jim Whitney. McKenna has an
| easy delivery. something after the styIe
of Charley Radbourne. good command
and pretty drop ball. Mac is a fine
hitter Magee of the same club has
more natural ability than either Kor-
wan or McKenna. He has speed. a
good drop ball. and is coming fast
McDougall of Portland is a clever
pitcher. and there are several others in
