B0S'r0NS THE '97 CHAMPIONS
RACE FOR THE LEAGUE PENNANT
DECIDED YESTERDAY,

Hub Players Won at Brooklyn, Willie
Baltimore Lost on the Home Grounds to
the Washingtons-Wild Scenes of En-
thusiasm at Eastern ParIs-Bostons Ac-
corded u Fitting Reception.
Brooklyn, Sept. 3O-Although Boston
has one more game to play with Brook
lyn and Baltimore will play two more
games with Washington at the Monu-
mental City, the race for the league
pennant Of 1897 practically came to an
end with the conclusion Of to-day's
game at Eastern park. Boston won the
game while Washington trounced the
champions, which leaves the Bostons
the undisputed champions for 1893.
Even should Baltimore win both their
games they can only attain a percent
age Of 700 points. Should Brooklyn
win from Boston Saturday the latter
still would have a percentage Of 704.
The scenes at to-day's game beggar
description. In the second inning, when
the Bostons scored five runs, which
gave them a safe lead, men and women
alike arose in their seats and yelled
like demons. When the lead became
so great that there was no more hope
for the home team the most faithful
Joined the Bostons and their rooters,
and for a time nobody could hear any
thing else but people yelling "Boston!"
1t was a great day for baseball in
Brooklyn and one that is not likely to
be forgotten very quickly by those who
attended.
Young Dunn was put in the box to
fool the new champions, but Captain
Griffin might as well have stood up a
wooden man. The Beaneaters had on
their batting clothes, and the faster
Dunn tossed them across the plate the
harder Captain Duffy's men would line
the leather out. The only trouble was
that the batting was all on one side.
The home team could do but little with
Klobedanz, the Boston twirler. About
the only time they hit him with any eff
feet was in the third inning, when they
scored all of their runs.
The fielding, like the batting, was
one-sided. Brooklyn made only four
actual errors. but then some Of the
players were guilty Of some Of the most
o.oPiu pays ooCli IL iAiouy udyo. DoS-
TOMS work in the field was simply mar
velous. Nothing seemed too hard for
them to get, Lowe and Long alone cut
ting off about four hits by their bril-
liant fielding.
Although the championship is settled,
Saturdays game will prove important
in many ways, as the local fans are al
ready preparing to give the men from
the Hub a great reception. The score:

RACES Ar ELM CITY PARK.
Little Jack Wins in 2:26 and Blue Light in
2:3S Glass.

The one thousand lovers of light-har-
ness racing that attended the second
days meet of the New Haven Driving
association at Elm City park yesterday
afternoon We're treated to some rare
sport. Four heats were raced in each
of the two events, and the 2:3S class
had to go over unfinished. Little Jack.
winner in the 1926 class, made one OF
the most sensational finishes in the
fourth and final heat, landing under the
wire by scarcely nose after hard
drive. In this race Vestal, who hand
lily finished first in the first heat, was
! distanced in the second heat owing to
her hobbies breaking before she had
reached the first quarter. The horse
fell and the driver, Mr.. Kingham, was
thrown over her head, and though at
the time Vestal was in the bunch, both
horse and rider escaped unharmed.
The 2:3S class was remarkable from
the fact that in the second heat, after
a fight from start to finish, Cruikshank
just beat out Blue Light, but the bay
gelding lowered his record ten seconds.
The summary:
2:26 Class-Purse $500.

The chestnut mare Mignonette, which
was distanced in the third heat in the
2:3S class, was entered by w. D. Augur
of Middletown, but is owned by a

among the judges as to whether Vestal
should be distanced or allowed to start
again. There are authorities for the
latter course.

BIG BILLS NOR CONSIDERED
by Board of Finance at Yesterdays Meet
Ing. .kuslnass TrnnSactad.


-.Eusiness Transacted.
The board of finance met at O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, it having been de-
cided to meet earlier than usual in or
der that the members might attend the
adjourned district meeting in the even
ing. For the same reason the session
was short and no very important busi-
ness was brought up. 1t had been ex-
pected that the gorgeous bills for the
advertising of sprinkling assessments
would be considered as all the mem
bers Of the board were in town and it
was thought that the full membership
would be present. Messrs. Reuben H.
Brown and Henry c. White were, how
ever, absent.
The meeting lasted only about half
an hour and the greater part of this
time was occupied in signing pay rolls.
A communication was received from
the fire commissioners explaining spe-
officially the transfer, a Recommendation
for which was asked from the board CT
finance at it's last meeting. 1t was ex-
planned that the transfer desired was
$400 from the fire alarm telegraph ac-
count, $500 of which was to go TO the
hydrants and resetting account ana 800
to the resetting account. The board
voted to recommend the transfer to the
court of common council.
At the last meeting of the board it
was suggested that the selectmen be
requested to make up the list of esti-
mates for the department of charities
and correction. The charter requires
that estimates must be made during the
month of November, while in section 8
of the act of consolidation it is provided
that the members of the board of char
tiles and correction shall take office on
December Z. The board of finance,
therefore, voted yesterday to ask the
selectmen to prepare the estimates for
this department.
Several petitions and recommended
tions for the building of sewers, sprink-
ling of streets and other work which
cannot under the new charter be order
ed until appropriations have been
made, have been referred to the board
of finance this summer and the board
yesterday voted to refer all these pa
pers to the director of public works for
reference when the estimates of the de-
partment of public works for next year
are being made UP.
City Clerk Lyon announced that he
had prepared a statement of the bond
account of the city of New Haven with
the acts of the legislature authorizing
the various bond issues. 1t was decid-
ed to postpone the reading of the state
ment until a full membership of the
board is present. An adjournment was
then taken.

SENATOR HO4R ON IND DEPENDENTS.
Defines When They Are and When They
Are Not Right.


| New York, Sept. 30.-The lecture
course of the Brooklyn Institute of Arts
and Sciences was opened tonight with
an address on recent criticisms on rep
resentative government by United
States Senator George Hoar. Senator
Hoar said:
81 believe that the conduct of pub
lie affairs is growing better from gen.
Grafton to generation. I do not see how
love of country can long abide while
ones country is altogether ignoble."
He launched a defence of congress
against it's detr2ctors and also re-
PEELED the insinuation that party spirit
instead of patriotism rules in America.
Taking up the problem of when a
party adherent does right in voting in
dependently, he said: ST hold it a good
thing to narrow and not widen the
field of political controversy. Certain
officers need only men of executive abil-
ity and honesty to fill them and their
political convictions are of no more i'm
! portance than religion and the color of
mans hair. Nor should a man sup
port evil measures because his party
advocates them.
But the men who fill some Offices
such as president or governor. are i'm
portant for what the country does
| through them and not for what thew
themselves are, and here | do not svm-
pathize with the independent. The man
who says In these cases that he will
vote for the best man, irrespective of
party, exercises his preference for an
individual at the expense of his coun
trys honor
A banquet at the Hamilton club in
honor of Senator Hoar followed the ad-
dress.

TRACEY AND PLATr TALK.

Both Confident of Republican Victory In
Croutar NexU York

New York, Sept. 30.-The Brooklyn
Standard this afternoon has the follow
ing interview with General Tracy:
"The republican party will win in the
coming election"
Does that mean, general, that you
will be the first mayor Of Greater New
York;"
"Now, I did not say that. I must
really not say anything, as the battle
lines are not fully laid out as yet. In a
few days you will see."
Asked If he was willing to explain his
two "as vets" the general said that he
was not explaining anything and would
ask his republican friends here to rely
on his assurance that victory would
rest with the republican party.
Senator Platt is also reported as say
ing: "I am not talking just yet. The
Citizens Union is doing all the talk
ing"
do you mean that Mr.. Low is weary
of the Union?"
well, I notice he is quiet lately"

HOW BALTIMORE LOST.
Made a Brave Effort But it Was Of No
Avail.


Baltimore, Sept. 3O.-The ghost of a
chance that Baltimore had to win the
pennant for next season no longer ex-
lists. 1t vanished early in to-day's
game when the senators fell upon DR..
Ponds curves, batted him out Of the
box and took a good long lead in the
fourth inning, after which the Orioles
seemed to loose heart and played list
lessly and without ambition.
| In the meantime the score board
! was showing how easily the Bostons
| were taking their game away from
Barnie's men in Brooklyn and the last
vestige of hope slowly died out in the
breasts of the handful of faithful
| rooters who still clung to the belief
| that Brooklyn might take one from the
leaders and give the Birds" chance
to catch up by winning all four from
the Senators.
Those who have studied the game
closely, however. had no such hope, as
it was apparent to them that the WASH
ington men had been playing in better
form than have those from Brooklyn in
recent gaines, anu luGll II WAS hLiOWu
that the Washington management was
very anxious to win at least one from
Baltimore and would not be displeased
to have the pennant go to Boston.
The story Of the game is like the
story of stern chase at sea. Wash
ington started the run getting in the
very first inning, Selbach getting a
pass to first and going to second on
Gettman's single to center. Demon
treville bunted, it went up in the air
and Dr. Pond might have worked q
double play if he had held it, but it
slipped through his fingers and the
bases were full. MCGUIRE fouled out to
Doyle, but Tucker banged one into left,
sending Selbach and Gettman across
the plate with two runs.
Towards the close there was a oase
on balls a single by Leahy, double by
Gettnan and several picturesque errors
by the home players, netting the visit
ors four tallies, and it was all over but

IN EXPERT FOR LUETGERT.
Identified the Skull of a Dog as Being That
of a Monkey.

Chicago, Sept. 30.-There was but one
witness on the stand in the Luetgert
trial to-day, and at the conclusion of
the session the state announced that it
would in all probability keep him on
the stand for the greater portion of to-
morrow. The witness was DIR. A. H.
Airport, the expert who testified for the
defence yesterday that the femur de-
clared by the state to be that of wo-
man is that of hog.
The state had prepared a warm ex-
animation for him to-day and toward
the latter portion of the afternoon ses-
sion it succeeded in confusing him and
gaining from him several contradictions
of his own testimony. He identified the
skull of a dog as being the skull of a
monkey, and was neatly trapped by the
state in doing so.

Crisis-Deemed Impracticable for Ralli
Cabinet to Continue in Office.
Athens, Sept. 3O.-The Boule Cegisla-
tive assembly, met to-day to consider
the peace treaty with Turkey and the
political situation in general. The GAL
lelies were crowded and the proceedings
were followed with intense interest.
M. Ralli, the premier, mounted the
tribune, and after reviewing the events
leading up to the signing of the peace
conditions, invited the chamber to v,c@
confidence in the government. He pro-
posed a resolution to that effect. Amid
great excitement the chamber defeated
the resolution by vote of SO to 80.
This defeat precipitates a crisis 1t
is deemed impracticable for M. Ralli
to continue in office with the cabinet as
now constituted. The Delyannists are a
large majority of the chamber and no
cabinet could conduct public business
without their approval.
The Ralli cabinet, which was sworn
in on April 80 last, is made up as fol-
lows:
President of the council of ministers
and minister of marine-M. Ralli.
Minister of the interior-M. Theotoki5.
Minister of foreign affairs--M. Skou-
