BASEBALL PLAYERS ARRESTED.
BUT THE YONKERS GOLFERS WE'RE NOT
DISTURBED AND THERE is
INDIGNATION

After the failure Of the police to convict for
violation or the Sunday law in the Adams golf
case week ago it was taken for granted that
no more arrests would be made for golf or base
ball playing in Yonkers. Acting upon this sup
position. number of baseball teams gathered at
different points in the suburbs of the city to-
day to play match games. At one point known
the Saw Mill River grounds an officer had
been placed watch by Police Captain Nc
Laughlin. When the game started the officer
approached and placed two of the players under
arrest They were taken to police headauarters
and were subsequently released on bail of 500
When the two ball players were arrested some
of the other players, who had anticipated trouble
walked out on the grounds with golf sticks in
their hands and started game of golf They
were rot moiested. but their bali playing COM
panions locked UP.
Meanwhile a number of match games of golf
were being played the SaegkllI links. where
Adams was arrested two weeks ago. The play
ers were not moested by the police in any way
and no officer visited the Gounds. When the
arrest of the ball players became generally
known much Indignation was expressed A
number of citizens rendered their services as
bondsmen, but not needed as the Young
men had already secured bail.
\ gospel meeting was in progress at the
rooms of the local Young Mems Christian AS
sociation. and was addressed by W. Thomas
citizen OF Yonkers and a lecturer. Mr.
Thomas, touching on the Sunday sport question
defended the boys who play ball, while de-
nouncng the golf players. He said that the
