ers are good men, although the formers

being Of the sensational order.

Last season Jake had all the earmarks of

Delehanty he has failed to come to the
front this season. Delehanty will Just about
reach the 300 class this year, but a close
analysis of his work with the bat will show
that seventh-eighths of his hits have been
made with men On basis. It's a treat to
watch Delehanty's face when he goes to
the bat with run necessary to win and
man on the base ahead of him. John l..
Sullivan's phiz in his palmiest days never
carried more confident look.
A movement is on foot in New York to
have John B. Day made manager of the
New York club. 1t has the support Of the
newspaper men, and something may come
of it.
Jennings Is coming around all right, and
will be in the game in a day or two. He
has badly bruised nose and a couple of
black eyes, which somewhat impair his
personal beauty, but apart from that he
is not seriously hurt as at first sup
posed.

Baltimore purchased a handsome road

runners that he owned in the palmy days

MERGERS MOVEMENTS.
Winnie Will Probably Be With Gin
cimnati Next Season.

Rumors from Washington are to the ef-
feet that a deal has been completed be-
tween the Washington and Cincinnati
clubs by which Cincinnati secures one of
the Washington players. Who the man is
is not stated, but as the alleged price Is
greater than that asked for Mcclure
which was s., 50O-and as it is known that
Mercer, Mcclure and Gettman were Of
fered to the Cincinnati club some time ago
at rather prohibitive figures, the natural
inference is that Mercer is the man who
has been captured by the Cincinuatis.
Should this rumor be true and the infer
ence correct. the Cincinnati club will have
made master stroke in securing the long
haired boy from East Liverpool. Not only
is Mercer an extremely clever pitcher, but
he can play fielding position as well.
For batting and fieetness on the bases he
ranks above any pitcher in the league.
When the Senator's were here last Mercer
expressed a desire to play in Cincinnati.
The Cincinnati club has been equally anX-
ious to have Mercer on the payroll The
Washington club. on the other hand, has
had Mercer the market for some time
for the reason that he was dissatisfied with
heirg with an inferior team. The deal
if it really has been made-will be satisfact
ory to all parties concerned.-Cincinnau
Tribune.

NEGLECTED. TALENT.
Promising Youngsters Overlooked by
the Major League Managers.

While various National League clubs
have been raiding the Interstate League
teams in the hope of finding another Piatt
or another Flick, the best men in the
league have been overlooked. At least, so
declare the players in the interstate and
other men who know. According to Eddie
Ashenbach, the clever outfielder, who
played with New Castle in the Inter-
state League this season, the two best men
in the interstate in their respective depart
ments have been overlooked. 1T is
strange said Ashenbach, that 'three-fin-
gered' Smith, the New Castle pitcher, and
Outtiefder Farrell of Springfield have not
been picked up by National League teams.
Smith, who is a brakeman by occupation,
lost the third and little finger of his right
hand coupling cars. This deformity in
creases rather than decreases his efficiency
as a pitcher He has good speed, command
and curves. and, best of all he has sand.
He also is a good hitter and fast on the
bases. This season his average is not so
good as some other pitchers, because he
was frequently put to finish games that
other pitchers had lost, and the defeat
was charged up to him. He is in every
way as promising a pitcher as Cy. Young
was when | recommended him to Tom
LOTUS years ago. AShenbach says that
Farrell has all the qualities of first-cass,
fast, hard-hitting outfielder and that he
also is a clever infielder. Farrell lives in
Covington.-Cincinnati Commercial.

Base ball Briefs,

Senator'S last game in Philadelphia to-
day.
Champion Bostons will be at National
Park Monday.
Baker twirled finely until the eighth in
ming Of the first game yesterday, when he
sent the first man UP to base on balls. That
was the beginning of the end The Phila-
delphia papers say that Farrelrs wild
throw over second really lost the game
Where Jimmy Mcclure will play next
season Is giving several officious writer's
considerable worry. Why not let the "OId
Reliable remain in Washington There Is
no one better.
Wrigley had thirteen chances Yesterday
and coppered them ALL Cross of Philadei-
phta had twelve, but lost one. The work Of
these two men, coupled with little Casey,
was the feature of the two games.
Farrell is getting into Wrigley's class of
late in making errors that are deadly.
Yesterday he threw wild over second base,
and as result two runs came over the
plate, enough to win the game
Wiley Piatt held the Senators down TO
one hit in the second game, nice bunt
by Selbach, but Killen wasn't far away
from him, as the QCakers had only five
hits to their credit. Both these left-hand-

BLACK BASS FISHING.
Large Number OF the Chub Variety
Taken in Nets.

While the anglers along the upper Poto-
mac are having good sport catching black
bass the fishermen who have trap nets
and haul seines on the lower part of the
river are hauling in many of the large
mouthed bass, or chub as they are called.
A local fisherman. speaking to a Star re-
porter this morning, said he would like to
see all of the chubs taken from the river.
He expressed the belief that they are
driving out the small-moufhed bass Since
they were put in the river he said, very
few of the others have been caught in the
traps and seires, while fishermen near Gun
ston, he understood, had caught hundreds
of big bass of the small-mouthed variety
each season before the others We're intro
duced. But he added, the big -mouthed
bass are sold by some dealers for the other
variety and as many people do not know
the difference they are served on the table
for what the anglers know to be the gamest
of Potomac fish.
The enforcement of the law against the
sale of bass less than nine inches long is
having good effect, it is understood. When
the law was enacted most of the dealers
notified shippers not to send them small
fish, and it is said that in only few in
stances nave the shippers diSregarded the
order. Most of the small fish received were
either given away or consigned to the gar
bage barrel and the shippers were not paid
for them.
1t is the intention of Major Sylvester, who
is also deeply interested in the work of the
Fish and Game Protective Association, to
see that the law is strictly enforced.
