HARRINGTON CATCHES ON
Manager Irwin of Manchester Secures
the ex-Farmer for His Team.

Manager John Irwin of the Manchester
team of the New England League was in
this city yesterday looking for Joe Har-
rington. He thought Harrington remained
in Worcester after his release from the
team. He connected with Harrington by
telephone, and Harrington will probably
join his team.
Irwin sold Murphy his short stop, to
Brooklyn Monday Murphy makes the
second player he has sold this season.
Boston having purchased Mike Hickey
few days ago.
Manager Irwin told The Spy man of a
deal which the National League will prob
ably work to offset the new league which
is in the air. The new deal is for an
eight club league, which viii include Mon
treal, Toronto, Buffalo and Detroit or
ton, Baltimore Philadelphia and another
southern city. Manager Irwin thinks
such a league would prevent the organiza-
ton of the league which is proposed in op-
position to the national. He asked Bust
ness Manager Liddy of the Torontos if the
officials of his club had heard anything of
the new deal. Manager Liddy replied that
they have not.
Manager Irwin thinks Worcester is a
great BAH city. He played here in 1894,
being manager of the Haverhill team OF
cester was a member that year Man
ager Irwin was surprised at the great in
crease of the crowds over the attendances
of that year and said 1t must be due to
furnishing better ball. He thinks If
ground nearer the city Is obtained for
next year Worcester will be one of the
best minor league cities in the country.

SPORTING NOTES.

Bannon played the best game of the
season for Worcester.
Manchester has sold the release of Short
Stop Murphy to Brooklyn.
Meekin, the pitcher sold to Boston, has
lost nine consecutive games for the New
York team.
The West End Juniors defeated the
Clinton Court Stars by a score of Is to in
five innings yesterday.
Jim Bannon had all kinds of trouble in
short field The defeat and many Of Wor
cester's runs are charged to his misplayS.
Much of the credit for yesterdays vic
tory is due the efforts Of the rooters, who
lined UP along the cinder track in the
ninth.
Adam Rothfuss is one of the hardest
men in the business to pitch To. The
working catcheris favorite in WoP-
cester.
Kioby was the pivot upon which victory
turned yesterday. His hit in the ninth
did much to cheer up the crowd and dis
concert the Torontos.
Belts understands the duties of his
position and brooks no interference from
players. He is as good an umpire as has
ofhciated in Worcester.
Charlie Hickman of the Boston team has
been given his ten days notice of release
from the Boston team. Hickman is "a
good man. but does not get the amount of
work necessary to develop him while with
Boston.
Pitcher Murphy of the Philadelphia
Club has been loaned to the Montreal Club
for the remainder of the season.-Provi-
dence Journal. Murphy ran up against
Worcester, and the Farmers did not think
that he was so much.
Montreal viii play only two games here

for the pennant, they'will hustle to take
both. Providence journal. Don't give up
the ship; there might still be a chance
for the Clam Diggers yet.

repetitions of thunderous noise in the

Jud Smith, captain and third base for
Toronto, is one of the dirtiest ball players
in the Eastern League and far outranks
O'Hagan, Burke, Smink or any of the
other alleged rowdies. On the last visit
of Toronto to this, city Smith ran into
Leach and dazed him, and later spiked
Kuhns. Yesterday he deliberately tripped
Lampe when that player turned third in
the ninth. The umpire very properly per-
mitted Lampe to score.
