PerpIexing Questions Arise in
Maine College Base Ball.
Maine State Does Not Seem to Shine
Under the Evidence.
No Date Decided Upon for The Oit-Postponed
Bowdoin- Colby Game.

Brunswick, May 2S.-(SpeclaD.-A
ball mines of the Maine intercollegiate
League met at Brunswick, this after
noon, for the purpose of settling sew
eral questions concerning the games to
be played during the remainder of the
season. The following managers were
present. Baxter of Bowdoin, Mari of
Bates, Roberts of Colby and Farnam of
the University of Maine.
The most important matter settled
by the board of managers this after
noon, was with regard to the Colby
University of Maine game played at
Waterville, last Saturday. The state
ment of the case as set forth by the
manager of the University of Maine
team, was practically this: At a previ-
Gus meeting of the league it was de-
cided that Colby and the University
of Maine should mutually agree upon
an umpire for the games to be played
between the two colleges. The umpire
of last Saturdays game was objection
able to the University of Maine mana
be procured he allowed him to act as
umpire. declaring that upon any adj
verse decision he should demand a new
umpire or withdraw his team from the
field. One of the first decisions had
been in favor of Colby, and on the re-
fusal of the University of Maine team
to continue the contest. the umpire de-
clared the game in favor of Colby.
After listening to the arguments on
each side, the board of managers de-
cided that the game should be played
again, the reasons for such decision
being that the Colby and University of
Maine managers ought to have agreed
upon an umpire and inasmueh as
the University of Maine set the pre-
cedent of leaving the field, they should
pay the expenses of the game which
will be played at Waterville.
No decision was reached in regard to
the date on which the Colby Bowdoin
game. which has been so many times
postponed, should be played. Manager
Roberts declared he would not play the
game with Bowdoip at Brunswick un-
less Manager Baxter would pay him
one-half the expenses incurred by his
team in coming to Brunswick the rainy
day on which the game was first post
poned Manager Baxter refused to do
this as he had previously sent the
Colby manager a telegram requesting
him not to come, as the weather was
threatening.

Engineer and Fireman Injured.

Attleboro, Mass, May 2S.-The spread
ing of rails on long curve on the At
tleboro & North Attleboro branch CT
the Wrentham section of the New York

accident, late this afternoon, which
came very near being a serious one.
The heavy passenger locomotive No.

into marsh carrying with it the ensi-
neer and fireman.
At the time the train was running at
the rate of 80 miles an hour, but
luckily the coaches containing IS pas
sengers did not leave the roadbed and
this fact saved the men and women in
the cars from serious injuries.
Fireman Howard e. Manchester was
hurled over the boiler and sustained
severe wound on the left side of the
head, which may prove to be frac-
tured skull. The engineer was badly
