Results Of Ball Canes Throughout

CURRENT SPORTING NOTES


Messrs Wagner and Schmelz decided to
do little wedding out Of extra players this
morning. and Pitchers Ashe and Kimbaii
were the ores selected as being the least
necessary to the club. Both these players
have given unmistakabie evidence Of ability
in the pitchers position but with seven
other twirlers. all but one Of whom have
stood the brunt of many battles and proved
their worth, 1t was not thought worth the
expense to hold them for the developing
process. 1t was thought that both Ashe
and kimball will sign either with the Rich
mond or Norfolk clubs, the former, es-
pecially. being in need Of pitchers.
Another important move decided upon by
Manager Schmek and seconded BY Mr.
Wagner was the releasing of Billy Lush to
the Toronto team for another years sea-
scning. Both Messrs. Schmelx and Wagner
believe that there Ii considerable playing
ability in Lush. but that he has gone back
this season and will have to come again
before he will be fit for the fast ball played
In the big league. As fielder, base run
Der and thrower Billy Is fully up to the
requirements. but with the stick he is
lamentably weak. and a fielder who cannot
be depended Upon to hit at least over $50
Is worth very little to National LeaSue
club. Should Lush regain his Old time bat
ting form It can be given out without
breaking any confidence that he will again
wear senatorial uniform and be assigned
to his old place in the right garden.

gathering of about $500.
If ever a game was won by three men,
Mercer. De Montreville and Brown GER
tainly did this trick yesterday. Browns

sensational order. two Of his catches be-

out of the IL hits secured by the home
team. the latter getting of them safe.

O. Brien at second. smothered nine chances

The Senators were sent to the bat first,
just to change the luck. as Manager
Schmelz said. but they failed to tally at the
start OF. In the second their good luck
came to the front. as they only hit safe
twice.. but scored four runs, the errors of
Long and Collins being very much in evil
dence. Blanks came their way for the
next six innings. but in the ninth they tai
