WHAT SANTIAGO MEDAL IS.
A Bronze Bar for the Men Who Fought
 At Santiago.

At Santiago.
 A Washington dispatch to the New York Times says that some criticism of the navy departanent for deciding tp place the likeness of Rear-Admiral Sampson on the Santiago medal, has provoked an explanation from the de- pertinent that it is not to be a ''Santi- ago medap' at all It is West Indian medal, and does not commemorate the battle of Santiago, according to the of ficial explanation. Instead, it comem- orates the naval operations in West Indian waters, including the blockade of Havana, the attack on San Juan, Porto Rico, and, incidentally, the event at Santiago. 1t is therefore held to be proper that Admiral Simpsons like ness should adorn the medal since he was in command during all these oper- ations.
 It has occurred to the navy depart ment, however, that. there odghtsteI be some special comme ion. of fhe fact that there was a battle at Santi- ago, and that the officers and men who participated in that battle should have some recognition of the fact Accord ingly, advantage has been taken of a provision in the law to the effect that any person, who maybe entitled to Gre ceive recognition in more than one in- stance'' shall be presented with a bronze bar to be attached to the ribbon by which the medal is suspended to those who participated in the battle of Santiago,
 In view of this announcement, there is some curiosity about whether the officers and men of the flagship New York will be presented with the bronze bar They are, of course, entitled to the medal, since they served in West Indian waters, and the medal, accord ing to the official announcement, mere ly commentaries the West Indian campaign. But in view of the fact that the New York did not arrive on the scene of battle till the fighting was ov- CT, there is some speculation about whether Admiral Sampson and his of ficers on the New York will receive the bronze bar in addition to the medal The Brooklyn's officers and men will have the Sampson medal and, the San- tiago bar, as they were not only in the West Indian campaign, but also in the fight
 It is doubted by those who have heard this proposition whether Rear Admiral Sampson would consent to wear bar describing him as having been in the battle, although the court of claims has decided that he gas con- structively, if not physically, present

MORRIS LOST TIE GAME
He Was Hammered All Over the
 Lot in One Inning.

Clancy Took His Place and Did Good
 Work-The Derby Players Again had
 Their Batting Togs on-Waterbury
 Made a Grand Squirt but Could Not
 Outrun the Visitors Bristol Here To-
 morrow-ResuIts of Games In This
 and Other Leagues.
 Kid Morris attempted to pitch for Waterbury yesterday and he was pie for the heavy hitters from Derby in just one inning After the first two men at bat had been retired by pret- ty double play Ladd started off q bat ting fusilade with a three bagger., The next six men at bat pounded out safe hit each and when Hafford who tried to take third on hit was put out Der by had scored five times. Charley Clancy was then sent in to try and pull the game out of the fire. Derby scored two more in the fourth on an error of Pete Kiernan's who dropped a fly ball after two men were out and al- lowed two men on bases to score. Two more came the visitors way in the sixth on three singles, two bases on balls and long flies to the outfeld. There were two more added to the visitors score in the eight on a base on balls, double and two singles. That ended their scoring.
 Waterbury scored her first run in the fifth inning on two bases on balls and single by Connor. In the sixth there was fun for the rooters. Murphy got first on an error by third, Courtney had a free pass. Matthews flew out to cen ter and Clancy to third, Weisbecker was given free ride and Kiernan filled the bases, Murphy coming home before that on an error by first, Me Cormiek then stepped up and meeting good one he sent it on line to right center. It bounded in front of the fielder and over his head 1t went into the, bushes back of the track Around the bases ran the players and McCor- mick chased them all across the plate for a home run Manager Connor then drove a screaming triple to right and came home on the short stops error of Luskey's hit The next man flew out and We had six more runs to our score. Our next and last run was scored in the eighth after two men were out, on a double by Mccormick and another triple by Connor.

At Bristol.


 Bristol, June 20.-Norwich defeated Bristol in the first game of two played here yesterday afternoon. Umpire Malone gave the game to the visitors. His decisions were so unfair that he did not officiate in the second contest. In the eigth inning he called a foul ball fair, and when man was out on the home plate by fully three feet he de clared him safe Everybody present agreed that it was the worst exhibi- ton of umpiring yet seen this season.
 In the second game Bristol easily de feated Norwich by superior playing. Malone was ordered off the field, as if would not have been safe for him to stay. William J. Tracy, one of the local magnates, acted as umpire. Only three hits were made off each pitcher and the game was very close, Bristol winning out 2 to 1. The scores:
 First game: RIFE Norwich .- 0 1.1142 O-9Ii 4 Bristol ...-.0 0 0 O 0 8 O O-6 75 Batteries-Duff and Butler; Botch and Clements
