JOHNSON IS RIGHT"

Hugh Duffy Backs Up American
League President on Umpire Question.
From the Evening Wisconsin.
Hugh Duffy, manager of the Milwaukee
Base Ball Club. Is one Of the few players
who are candid enough to come forward
and say that the system Of protecting UNI
pires adopted by President Ban Johnson Of
the American League Is right and proper.
Hughey not only admits that Ban Johnson
is right, but he was man enough to apollo
giZe to him for his actions at the opening
of the season for the manner in which he
criticised the umpires In the American
League.
In discussing the subject Duffy said:
when | came into the American League
last spring and saw how the umpires were
conducting affairs l was paralyzed, for 1t
was different from the National League
methods. l thought the players were being
| trodden upon with both feet by the umpires
and every one else. l have changed my
mind since. and now take off my hat to the
officials of the American League. It is the
only method that will keep the game before
the public In the proper manner. and the
sooner the National League adopts the
rules set down by Ban Johnson the better
1t will be for that organization 1t Is bet
ter to have discipline than disorder
Many times j have sat on the bench
when playing for Boston and abused um-
pires until l imagined all kinds of robbery
that was being committed by them. ! have
roasted Eank " Day for nothing more than
being given the worst Of a close decision
Umpres are human and players will lose
their tempers at times, but on the whole
the umpires are sincere in their work and
do the best they know how. They must be
given the support of the league, otherwise
order would be impossible. Ban Johnson
has the right idea, and I trust that other
league presidents will have the nerve to
follow his example. did criicise the UNI
pires at the beginning Of the season, but I
afterward apologized for 1t, realizing that I
had made a mistake. As I said before, It ia
better to have discipline than trouble on
the bail Held. and players will do well to try
and help umpires along rather than make
trouble for them"

STINSON AND McEACHERN,
A Twenty-Five-Mile, Race Friday

A Twenty-Fiye-Mile, Race Friday
Night That Promises to He Interesting
The first match race between VIII Stin-
SON and Archie McEachern in this city
will be pulled off Friday night at the Col
iseum bicycle track. and the race will
probably be one of the fastest Of the season
on the local bowl. The race will be for
twenty-five miles and both riders will be
paced by four powerful motor cycles
Will Stinson, who Is at the present time
the holder of the hour record for the world,
having covered forty miles in that time,
has met defeat only twice this season, and
is riding faster than ever. He is a noted
pace follower and his records on the tracks
of the eastern circuit this season have
attracted attention all over the country.
Archie McEachern was scheduled to ride
against Burns Pierce during the earlier
part Of June, but owing to the inclement
weather at the time the race after sew
eral postponements, was finally declared off
and the Washington public was disap-
pointed at not seeing this plucky little
Canadian rider give an exhibition of his
riding qualities. He is likewise riding be-
hind his motor In fast time, and In fact
faster than ever before this season.
The preliminary events, which start at
o'clock. will include half-miia novice,
one-mile handicap and a police pursuit
race The Stinson-McEachernr race viii be
put on at 9:l5 sharp. In the event CT post
ponement the races will take place the next
evening.

VIII Stinson of Cambridge, Mass, won
the hfteen-mile motor-paced race on the
indoor cycle track at Madison Square Gar
den, New York last night. The other COM
petitor was Bobby Walthour of Atlanta
Ca but he was only a contender for a lit
tie over two miles, when a bad accident put
him out of the race after he had broken
the worlds indoor record in the first and
second miles.
Walthour was the first to catch his pace
At the end Of the first mile neither had
made any perceptible gain. and the time
~ I-o-cllpped 1-5 seconds off the world S
indoor record. Walthour increased his pace
in the second mile and was half a length
ahead at the end Of 1t in 3.21 %. which Is
II seconds ahead of the best previous rec
ord.

wheel on Stinsons pacing machine broke
and In the first lap of the third mile a sub
stitute machine was sent out 1t had only
made one circuit of the track when Wal

1t was thought at first that Walthour was
badly injured de got up quickly, however,
ana remounted his bicycle, but was SO stun
ned by the fall that he was unable to cut
in behind stinson and keep up with the
pace. After riding a few laps Walthour
dismounted and retired He was not seri-
ously injured. One of his pacemakers re-

Base Bali Notes,


Another double-header at Philadelphia
today. Patten and Gear will probably
pitch.
Connie Mack's aggregation is playing the
finest sort OF ball at present, and a contin-
uatton OF the same will assuredIy land
them among the leaders.
All the Philadelphia papers laud the work
of Washington's inf1eld. Farrell, Ciingman
and Coughlin are throwing superbly, but
of course, they are weak with the stick
Left-hander Plank and Bernhard will
probably face the Senators this afternoon

were arrested after the game and had to
pay fines. President Johnson will be the

Something certainly dropped in Milwau-
kee yesterday. The idea OF beating Detroit
by 10 to is something the Brewers NAV
have seen in dreams, but hardly as a possi-
bfiity. The Detrofts seem to have gone all
to pieces over the defeats in Chicago last
week.
Willie Carrick pitched another fine game
for the Senators yesterday, but Wiltse did
even better and is entitled to his victory

errors yesterday and the smoky city root
