 The NaVajos as a rule are cute and sly in the business. Their contact with civilization has taught them the "Yan- kee method" of driving a bargain.

NOTES OF THE CAME.

Yesterday morning Dietrich asked for his release from the New Haven team. His request was granted. It is rumor- ed that he could not get along with the management Although Dietrich has not been hitting well of late, he has played a good game in the field and will be missed during the last week, especially as his place will have to be filled with one of the pitchers.
 Ashe was unfortunate yesterday in hitting men. Miran will be laid up the remainder of the season. Luckily, he was hit on the left elbow or he would never pitch another game. After his arm had been set he was taken to the city in the ambulance. Buckley waxed very angry after he had been hit the second time, and forgetting or not car ing that there were ladies as well as gentlemen in the grand stand used language which would have justified the umpire, had he heard him, in put ting him out of the grounds. This oc- cured while he was standing at the players bench just in front of the grand stand.

AT BRIDGEPORT.

Bridgeport, Sept. 2.-About 600 people witnessed a clean, well-played game be- tween the "Orators' and the ''Whal- CTS" this afternoon and it resulted in a victory for the home team. The spec tators frequently applauded the fine playing, and as both teams fielded bril- liantly there were numerous occasions for applause. A base on balls and two lucky hits in the ninth enabled New London to make their only scores of the game. The score:

GRAND CIRCUIT RACES.
Another Fine Day of Sport at Read-
 vllle.

Another Fine Day of Sport at Read-
 ville.
 Readville, Mass. Sept. 2.-There was another day of fine sport at the grand circuit meet at the Readville track to- day, two races being run off in fine style, with a couple of heats in the third race to end the racing, the event going over until tomorrow. The 2.25 pace proved to be the hardest fought race of the day, Lady of the Manor with Geers up, finally taking it, al- though strongly pressed by Exploit in the last three heats.
 The 2:0S trot was looked upon as the greatest attraction of the day, but while driven hard in each heat, The Abbott managed to land ahead of Ken lucky Union, who lacked the necessary steadiness. This was also a victory for the veteran Geers
 With a big field in the 2:12 trot, two heats were run off and another at tempted, but after scoring many times the event was finally put over,
 Joe Patchen, driven by his owner, C.. W. Marks, made a mile in 2.02 flat, beating the record for amateur driving of 2:03A, also make by MT. Marks. Summary:

He Declines to Discuss McKinIey's sug.

Philadelphia, Dec. 16.-Col. James A.
Sexton of Chicago, national comman-
der Of the Grand Army Of the Repub-
lie, who is attending a meeting here
of the executive committee Of that or
ganization today, declined to discuss
President ,McKinley's suggestion in his
speech at Atlanta that the national
government should share with the
southern people in the care of the
graves Of confederate soldiers as it now
cares for the graves of those who
fought on the Union side.
Regarding the proposition that the
same day should be observed as Me
mortal day by both north and south
the colonel said there could certainly
be no objection to the idea, and he
thought such step would go a great
way toward obliterating so-called Sec
tional lines.
Col Sexton said: 1T made the sug-
gestion over two years ago to have
day for the purpose Of memorializing
the soldier dead. In Chicago, Rich,
mond, New Orleans and Atlanta, they
follow this course now. There are 5000
confederate soldiers buried in Chicago
and many comrades have contributed
to the erection of a monument over
their graves. At the time this monu-
ment was dedicated on Memorial day,
the commander of Massachusetts de-
claimed against it on the ground that
Memorial day belonged to Union men.
/ was then prompted to come out and
take issue with the commander and
felt it my duty to do so, and especially
as my post, Columbia No 706 Of Chi
cago, took part in the dedication"

kets that are slipping from their
fathers hands. The future is in most
respects an enigma, but this we know,
that We need never fear a lack OF SOL
diers."
President Sprague next made his
opening speech. After expressing his
thanks for the honor which was once
more thrust upon him, he said: "r
am glad to welcome so many old COM
rades and to see the ranks so full on
this suspicious day. Time deals gently
with us, and it is good now that tho
ranks are dissolved and all soldiers
are on a level for them to attend these
reunions and grasp each other by the
hand.
Since we last met bere, our country
has passed triumphantly through the
ordeal of war with a great foreign
power. 1t Is but little war compared
TO the one we took part IN, lasting only
no days. But in that length of time
SPANS navy was sank, oppressed ma
lions liberated and many more names
added to Americas roll Of heroes.
Two great things were accomplished
by the war. First Of all, the European
nations have been taught Americas
Importance. Formerly, I regret to saw
the stars and stripes failed to receive
the respect from foreigners that was
their due. Now an American can travel
anywhere and be proud that he is an
American, sure that the national ban
ner will afford him ample protection.
The second thing accomplished is
even more wonderful refer to the
glorious spectacle Of men of the south
fighting shoulder to shoulder with their
former enemies of the north. How M
tie did we ever hope to see General
Joseph Wheeler fighting for the stars
and stripes
But we are here today to fight over
our own battles. In the last few
months we have heard much of the
sufferings of our soldiers from disease
and the ravages of an unhealthy eli
mate. The public must not forget that
we, too, suffered as much from fever
and malaria as did the soldiers in, this
war. The FiftY-irSt Massachusetts
was especially unfortunate in that re-
spect AT one time 25 per cent of our
men We're i'll with malaria What reg
lment in this war can equal that rec

What is that to the 800, 600 of the north
ern army who gave up their. lives, only
one out of ten killed by a bullet"
President Sprague finished by. reading
PRESIDENT McKlnley's speech at At
lanta, which he considers the finishing
stroke to the complete reunion of north
with south.
Lieut.. Col John NJ. Studley was the
next speaker He referred to the bad
condition of the transports in the last
war, but affirmed that the condition OF
the transports in the civil war was
much worse. In support Of this state
ment he related several incidents which
took place when the Fifty-first Massa-
chusetts was being transported from

FEDERATION OF LABOR.
A Boston Man Lik lily to Be Honored at
the Convention.


Kansas City, Mo-, Dec. 16.-The fight
on President Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor, which was talked
Of by minority at the annual conven-
ton, has not developed any strength.
The election Of officers probably will be
the last business of the convention.
There probably win be some changes in
the executive council but there is no
doubt so far as can be seen now, that
Mr.. Gompers will be reelected. 1t is
generally believed that James O'Con-
nell of Chicago and Thomas f. Tracey
of Boston will be selected as fraternal
delegates to the British trades con-
gress next summer.
The convention adopted resolutions
against condemning the tobacco trust.
The resolutions which We're passed
after a spirited debate in which the
delegates set forth the alleged wrongs
against organized labor practiced by
the trusts, follow:
Recognizing the fact that the par
alyzing hand Of the trust is making in
roads upon the rights and privileges of
labor and humanity, and is the most
serious menace to industrial we'll
being, public tranquility and the per
petuity of our republic, we hereby
pledge our moral and material support
to all other Independent manufacturers
to help them in their fight. our fight and
the fight Of humanity against the
blightins curse of trust aggrandize-
ment.
ITO give practical effect to these SEN
timents, we hereby urge upon all mem
bers Of the Federation of Labor and all
patriotic citizens who are consumers OF
TOBACCO, to purchase and use only the
chewing and smoking tobacoos and
| cigarets of Independent factories who
use the label of the Tobacco Workers
