Speaker Reed remained at the Shoreham

with friends and managers at St. Louis.
He had no further to make
respectti : Mr.. Manley's celebrated state
mcnt of Wednesday evening.
Ii was learned that Mr.. Manley'S state
ment of last night was prepared in re-
sl'onsc - Mr.. Reeds telegram of inquiry
sent. yesterday, as to the meaning and
cause of his original statement. which
caused such a sensation. Friends of the
Speaker in st. Louis wired him thai they
heiiVed Mr.. Manley became panic-stricken
tisans OF Mckinley at the first meeting of
the national committee. n Mr.. Manley'S
regret over his action satisfied them that
he " did not mean it."
The assertion made by Messrs. Manley
and Murray Crane. the latter of Massa-
would not under any circumstances ac-
cept the nomination for vice president,
was reiterated by his friends in Washing
ton. Tn, action of the national commit
tee in throwing out Reed delegates. es-
pecialiy those from Louisiana, was COM
mentcd on with much bitterness by Mr..
Reeds friends as unnecessary if Mckin-
ley had :, majority of the convention and
indefenSible in any view. They were ad-
vised that Texas anti-McKinley men
claiming to be delegates would probably
meet tn fate of their Louisiana col
leagues.
Speaker Reed will not go home until
after the convention %adjourns. He may
go to Now York on Il business trip that
has been pressing for some days.

A Correction.

An item appeared in this column,
yesterday. which by typographical err
rors, was misleading. 1t should have
read as follows:
Umpire Hunt did not merit much of
the criticism directed at him. yesterday.
On the whole he did very good work,
his close decisions being pretty fairly
divided between the two teams. To be
sure he was badly off on a few called
balls and strikes. but the number was
not large, and probably nobody real
lied his errors of Judgment in this re-
spect more than he does himself, for he
does not profess to be infallible. He
kept the players where they belonged
better than any umpire we ave seer
on the grounds. with the exception
of Connolley. We thought him in
error in calling Corner, out at first;
but he was nearer the base than any
one else except the player. and was
better IL to see the play. To our
mind his greatest error was in failing
to call Steere out when that player
deliberately snatched the ball out of
Johnson hands in running to second.
This was rot base ball, and should not
have been tolerated. Aside from the
few bad errors of judgment above
noted, it seemed to us hat Mr.. Hunts
work in calling balls and strikes was
very good. We do not believe that the
work Of any umpire is improved by
criticisms of the crowd. and we trust
that our patrons will be just in this
matter. Mr.. Hunt is a fair-minded
man with the courage to do what he
tninKs to be right. Our players say
that no man on the staff has given
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1896-06-13

them a suuarer deal away from home.
He makes mistakes, what umpire
doesn't? some of them bad ones; but
no man on the staff is more frank in
admitting them. and none we believe
tries harder to guard against them. 1t
is not an easy thing to judge quick
curves and shoots, and umpires are
sometimes deceived by them as well
as batsmen. We believe Umpire Hunt
is regarded very generally throughout
the league as one of the best men on
the staff and the teams under him will
generally get about all that is due
them.

am after the third inning had the
Fall Rivers all at sea with his slow
benders. He has a peculiar motion in
delivering the ball, intending to keep
the batter guessing as to when he is
going to pitch. and if it isn't a balk
there is no such breach of rules. Bean,
at short, put up his usual snappy
game. and Johnson at second stopped
everything that came in his territory:
Doherty, at third, also did good work.
Tony Hart, the old veteran, who fig
ured in the Lewiston team when the
Fall Rivers used to like nothing better
thar to down that team, was in right
field. but did not have any great oppor-
tunity to distinguish himself. Butler.

hind the bat. and he caught a good
game. The one who attracted the most
attention, however, was the manager.
