NEW YORK, May 17.-Abraham
Fischer, one of the Boer ENJOYS, was
shown to-day the published statement
in which the ENJOYS were reported as
having made indiscreet admissions on
the steamship to an employee of Lon
don newspaper. Mr.. Fischer said the
story was false in every material par
ticular.

4 Fatal Accident.
JOSEPH BOSWELL, OF BELLAIRE,
STRUCK BY BICYCLE LAST
EVENING
AND WAS THROWN VIOLENTLY
To the Ground-He Sustained In
jurics Which Resulted In His
Death shortly Afterwards-Was- q
Well known Resident of the
Town.

Last evening about s o'clock Joseph
Boswell was the victim of fatal ae-
cident occurring near his home in North
Bellaire. He was struck by bicycle,
and died from the effects of his in
juries few hours later.
At the time stated Mr.. Boswell left
his residence at the corner of Noble
and Forty-sixth streets. and walked to
Jefferson street, where he stepped out
into the street to get look at troll
ley party which was passing him. As
he did so he was struck by wheel
man, reported to be Clarence Barrett,
who was speeding down the thorough
fare.
Mr.. Boswell was thrown violently to
the ground and his head struck the
curb stone. He was picked up uncon-
scious by those who We're near and
carried to his home, where he was at
tended by DR.. Minesinger. On examin-
alton it was found that the unfortunate
man was suffering from conclusion of
the brain. He also sustained cash on
his forehead. In spite of the fact that
everything possible in medical skill
was administered to improve his con-
dition he passed away shortly after
midnight, never regaining conscious
ness after the accident.
1t is considered by those who wit
messed the accident that it was entirely
unavoidable, as the wheelman evident
ly failed to notice Mr.. Boswell until he
was too close to him to turn out of
his way. Considering the cireumstan-
ces the accident is certainly one to be
deeply deplored.
Mr.. Boswell was a blacksmith by
trade and was we'll known and esteem
ed in Beliaire. He had a host OF warm
and admiring friends who will sincere
ly regret to learn of his death. He was
employed at the old Bellaire nail fac
tory for years before it closed down.
He was lately in the employ of the
Novelty Stamping Company. Arrange
ments for the funeral will be made to-
day. Deceased is survived by wife,
three daughters and FIVE sons.

The situation in the ninth inning OF
yesterdays game was very ticklish.
Wheeling had not been giving Johnny
6kopec the right sort of support, and
The climax was reached in the ninth,
when 1t looked like the Nailers had a
very aggravated case of the rattles.
Hartman, who is generally a nasty
stieker, was up against a south-paw
twirler and he famed for re third
time in the game. Kane had ut sue
ceeded in getting the sphere outside Of
the diamond, and as he was due, he
drove single over the second sack.
Beck sent the ball down to Pequinney,
who fumbled it and gave him life.
Then both runners came in on drive
by Turner to left field. 1t would or
dinarily have been good for but one
bag, but it bounded away from Taylor,
and when 1T was felded in the bases
were cleared and Turner was on sec
ond.
The visitors, with one man out, need
, cd but two runs to tie the score, and
when Tom Turner dropped Rother-
mel's throw of Smiths indeld hit 1t
looked like the team was in the air
and they would get them. The visi-
tors now tried the hit and run game,
but Gjlks failed to perform his part.
The double steal was accomplished
through Pequinney's tumble of Rit-
ters throw, which was in time to
catch Turner several feet off the plate.
It was now up to Gilks, who had al
ready made two hits.
Bobby nibbled once or twice, then
met straight one nice, and it went
on a line toward left field. 1t was
over Pequinney's head, but he pulled
it down and threw to Turner in time
TO retire Smith, redeem himself and
save the game. If the ball had gone a
few inches higher there would have
been different tale to relate.
Joss had his bad inning the first
time he faced the Nailers, and his sup
port was so ragged that all the good
work during the remainder of the
game was not sufficient to change de-
feat with victory.
After Rothermel was retired at first,
the bases were filled by Joss gifts to
Meaney and Lyons and Taylor's
ASatSk infield hit. Tom Turner knock
Gu Several long fouls, and then drove
the ball to the right field fence for
two bases, scoring two. Congalton hit
to left field and Smith allowed the ball
to get through his legs. The bases
were cleared and Congalton ran clear
around to third. Pequinney hit safe
one and Congalton scored the fifth run.
Pequinney started to steal and Ar
thurs throw hit him, allowing him to
take one more bag than he had calcu-
lated on purloining. Ritter walked.
Skopec was retired from second to
first, Pequinney scoring on the play.
Rothermel's single and another error
by Smith allowed Ritter to come in
with the seventh run.
The local team had an off day in
fielding, while the visitors settled down
after the first and played shut-out ball.
