CITY BASEBALL LEAGUE.
Probability That One Will Be Or
ganized This Week.

An effort is being made to organize a
city league among several of the military
and other organizations in the city. The
Catholic LIBRARY Association and the Og-
lethorpe Light Infantry have already or
ganized teams and the Y. NJ. c. A., the
Chatham Artillery and probably other or
carnations will organize clubs. The in
tention is to play a series of games, say,
ten or twelve for trophy.
1t mas been good time since the lovers
of the national game have had taste
of even good anna teur ball and the or
ganization of city league would be well
coined by a great many. There are A
number of good players in Savannah, par
ticularly now that many of the college
BOYS are home for the summer, and there
is no doust that several first-class teams
could be made up.
The owners of the baseball park will be
appealed to to aid the organization of a
league, and if they will do anything to
help the vsrlous clubs it will no doubt
be productive of much good and profit to
themselves. 1t is more than probable that
a meeting of the various projected clubs
will be called for some night this week,
ana the organization pushed to compile
aion.

DETECTIVES BELIEVE HIM.
They Think Hamilton Lost HIS
Money in Gambling Game.

They Think Hamilton Lost His
Money in Gambling Game.
The city detectives are inclined to be-
leve that the story told by Thomas Ham
rton, the negro charged with robbery and
assault, mention of which was made in
the Morning News, is true, and the case
will be investigated by Recorder Myrick
in Police Court this morning. Hamilton is
charged with the larceny of $40 from
Ivey Ponder of No. 22S Price street, and
also with striking the woman in,the head
with her own pistol.
Hamilton really surrendered himself to
Detectives Stark and Murphy, and told
the first story of the trouble to the Of
ficers, He stated that he had won SIG in
the woman's house, and that she tried TO
force him to remain, and attempted TO
get her revolver. The man was too quick
for her and Selling the weapon, struck
he~ . stunning blow across the head
When arrested. at the request of the
woman, Hamilton entered charge of
keeping a gaming house against her, and
this case, too, will be heard by the Re-
corder this morning. Both cases were con-
tinued yesterday because of the absence
of material witnesses.
Hamilton's coat and hat were left in
the house when he made his escape. This
the detectives say, shows that he had
not only just gone to the woman's room
for the purpose of getting $50 changed.
According to the officers he had evidently
played in some sort of game and had his
coat off. Hamilton has worked for sew
eral law firms and the police give him a
good reputation.
