THIRD BASEMEN.
BALTIMORE CLUB ENJOINED.
Holmes Secures a Restraining Order
From the Circuit Court.

The fight between the base ball managers
Freedman and HaRlon, over the case of
William ''Ducky" Holmes, was up in the
Baltimore circuit court yesterday. An in
junction was served on the Baltimore Base
Ball Company restraining it from suspend
ing Holmes and preventing his earning his
livelihood. President Hanlon is given ten
days to show cause why permanent in
junction should not be granted. The bill
recites the action Of the magnates in filming
the New York management 1000 and sus-
pending Holmes for the season, the 81, 900
fine to go to the Baltimore club in event OF
it's benching the outfielder.
The argument for the injunction is to the
effect that the decision of the magnates
was made without notice TO Holmes that he
was trial or that charges were preferred
against him; that it is a traveSty upon JUS
tice lacking the essential elements of fair
ness, good faith and candor; that il infiicts
a great wrong and injury upon Holmes, and
that if the Baltimore club carries out the
decision of the national board Holmes will
be prevented from earning a livelihood and
will suffer great pecuniary loss.
In order to keep within the provisions
of the national boards finding, Manager
Hanlon has already served a notice of sus-
pension on Holmes, and the Injunction pro-
ceeding will not be warmly contested by the
base ball company. Hanlon does not intend
to allow Freedman the slightest loophole
to get out of paying his fine, but at the
same time he is determined that Holmes
shall not suffer.

CURRENT SPORTING NOTES

M. D. Whitman was picked before the
national tannis tournament began at New
port to win the "all comers'" and the
championship, and he fulfilled expectations
yesterday, defeating Dwight Davis three
sets to one in good style Whitman's work
throughout the week has been of the best,
strong, steady and even at times brilliant,
and always good enough to win from the
man against him.
After the early rounds he had to meet in
succession George Wrenn, Budlong and
Ware, three of the best men in the whole
list before coming yesterday against Davis
in the finals. Though not a player of the
very first class, compared with some of the
champions of past years, Whitman well de-
serves the title. He is good, all-rourid
man, generally steady, sometimes brilliant
master of all the technique of play and

among the all comers this year. with the
other leaders all out of the running, he was
certainly easily the favorite
Davis, by his work in this years tourna-

strongest young players in the country: and
is surely conner.
In the first set there was little good ten

started off with the advantage, taking three
games love. Then the tide turned strongly
the other way, and Davis ran the score up
to three all. Davis took the next three
! games, making six straight and won a
weakly played set.
Better tennis was shown in the second
set. Davis started off all right, winning
two out of the first three games. But here
Whitman, who had not been doing much
began to catch his game and, as often hap
| pens, Davis fell off somewhat in his work

stroke, he made outs and nets enough to
lose, and Whitman. playing steadily, soon
ran out the set at e.

was precisely the same. There was more

he got were the best and hardest fought of
