Young LETTERS NEW SCHEME
Joseph Letter, of Chicago, who has beer
spending few days 10 New York in
consultation with his creditors, left to-
Sunday for his nome. There were
other reasons than those connected
with his financial difficulties that took
him to New York; he has been quietly
engaged in a scheme to consolidate the
street railways of Chicago. His friends
say that his father is backing him IL
this deal and that the Of feud between
Yerkes and the Letters has been
patched up. The street railway ma
nipulator, it is said, has demonstrated
to the satisfaction of young Letter that
he can retrieve his fortune by bringing
about the proposed consolidation. The
scheme cannot BE- put through without
the consent of the Letter holding III the
CITY Railway Company, which amounts
to 1000 shares.

walked away from the plate. but again the

was driven out of Gettman's reach. Then
the double steal in the first inning can be
admitted yesterday that he was afraid to
cut loose at Mercer at third for fear of in
5urtng him. With three catchers, and two
pitchers in the infield, counting the battery.
the Senators did well to put up any sort of

place the victory Of Saturday as a great

Sixteen hits Off Of weighing look formid-
able, but as conservative a man as Jim Nc
CURE told an Evening Star reporter yester-
day, that IL Gus could pitch such games as
he did Saturday throughout the season he
games chalked up to his credit. This Is a
good piece Of news for the Washington en-
thusiasts. as 1t places weighing on the
pitching staff as a reliable man, something
that was hopad, but hardly expected.
On going to the bat in the second inning
Jack Doyle was approached by Catcher
Clark Of the Orioles. and on behalf OF many
admirers in the oyster city presented the
senator's first baseman with a handsome
diamond ring. valued at $50 The spec
tators in the stands also gave Jack a great
send-on. and In response he hammered out
a nice single. While trying to steal second
on the next play Shcrtstop Jennings step

AFFAIR in New York Saturday-how II will
live up to the resolutions which IL adopted
at st. Louis. According to the New York
papers, the inspiring cause of the scene
was close decision at third base. which
Umpire Snyder gave in favor of the Bos-
ton club. The New York players rushed on
the diamond in a body, made a great kick
over the decision, which was of course
taken up by the spectators. and during the
remainder CT the game the luckIess arbf-
traitor was almost continually bombarded
by cushions and abuse IL the demonstra-
ton had bean stopped there. IL would have
been bad enough, but after the umpire
had reached the dressing room it is said
that he was attacked by Joyce and that
Pitcher Doheney also brought a chair into
use on the umpire. A policeman who
sought to save Snyder was hit by the bel
ligerent New York captain. President
freedman Immediately issued orders that
Umpire Snyder be denied entrance to the
grounds today. 1t is held in base ball cir
