LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
GAME BIRDS AND THEIR EGGS.
DR. wE5Bs RATHER DIsCoURAGING Ex-
PERIENCE.
o the Editor OF The Tribune.

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: l see by the inclosed dispatch that the De-
partment OF Agriculture is endeavoring to carry
into effect recent law for the protection and i'm
portation OF birds;
Washington. July 16.-The Department OF Agri-
culture has issued regulations for the proper exc
Gntlon OF the Lacey law for the protection Of and
Department purposes to supplement- and not to
State s tns Work hitherto done 5y the
called TO the fact that while the provides for
alton is made for that purpose The Department
therefore, has no quail pheasants other game
given as to what is prohibited by the act.
In connection with this would like to call the
attention OF your readers an experience OF mine
For the last eight years have been raising each
year from 100 to 1000 pheasants and partridges in
Vermont I have not confined them but have
allowed them to over the whole western
portion of the State. The work 1 have been doing
Is regarded by the Vermont game officials as OF
great public Importance. and is more extensive than
that done by many Of the State Commissions and
organiza tons
Last May I purchased several hundred dollars
worth OF pheasant and partridge eggs IN England
Tor Matching in Vermont. and shipped them to
NeW-fork oy the American Express. I went to con-
siderable trouble and expense to have the eggs
properly cared for on the journey. but upon their
arrival they were absolutely refused admission by
the United States Customs, and had be thrown
overheard The American Express Company con-
tended that there was law absolutely prohibiting
the importation Of game birds eggs into this
try. The only person who raises pheasants' eggs
Tor sale IN this country is Mr. De Guise at the late
MI Hsvemeyer's estate, at Mahwah N J. There
might be duty. but the law says positively that
no foreign game birds eggs be brought in
It seems 70 me extraordinary that one depart
ment of the Government should work so directly
opposite to another and that private individual
who is willing. at his own expense, to carry on
a work which seems to have the sanction OF law
and Is certainly OF great public benefit, should be
prevented by the customs officials from doing so
l propose to bring the matter the attention Of
Secretary Gage and Secretary Wilson Yours
truly, WI SEWARD WEIR

THE RUIN OF BASEBALL
AN AFTERNOON OF RIOT AND RowDYIsM
AT THE POLO GROUNDS

AT THE POLO GROUNDS
To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir; In the name OF lover OF baseball for
many year. and for the future sake of an IN
rtvalled sport want to thank you for your Justly
severe arragnment OF the present spirit Of profess
sionalIsm at the Polo Grounds. 1t was not half
severe enough. Some years ago an afternoon there
was both rest and recreation. The players were
sportsmenlike. the spectators self-respecting.
In order to save some too conhding lover OF
the game from like experience. I shall try to
give an unvarnshed tale of my misadventure a.
the Polo Grounds not many days ago. my first and
last visit there under the present management. The
players. with few exceptions. openly disputed
every close decision. though I must say that the
visiting team more offensive and arrogant
than the Giants.
The spectators were apparently unchecked by any
self-respect whatever. Many of them were both
insolent and insulting to the umpire and players.
Yells of You cowardT Say. who paid you
for selling the gamer' '5orsewhip him! Lick him.
etc, were shouted comments on every close de-
cision dare not quote the oaths and vile epithets
which were to be heard now and then when the
riot OF insult high. The umpire did make
several mistaken decisions one especially so. but
he struck me as trying to be fair. and the vtlest
protests were brought forth by decision that was
both correct and courageous.
But these things literally paled before the raucous
and incessant yelling and bowling Of a couple OF
half drunken half witted rowdies on the bleach
ers- Had these pestilent nuisances tried the same
antics in Broadway they would have been sent up
to Randau's Island on short notice: but for one
hour and a half they were permitted by the Polo
Ground authorities TO Infict their din OF the IN
willing ears OF the few hundred spectators who had
paid their entrance fees under the mistaken idea
that they were coming to see game of baseball
which IN fact was an hour and half OF sern1-rIOt,
arrogance, insult, blaspheny and nasttness with
baseball s accom- paniment-
1t is perfectly obvious that the authorities at the
Polo Grounds have absolutely no conception OF the
value OF workmanship the part OF the players
or sef-respect on the part OF the spectators. saw
two or three women present and they seemed 20 De
