In making the new rules the baseball law
makers overlooked a point of Importance.
The old rules provided that when a man is
hit by pitched ball he is not given time
at bat. Though the new rules do not penal
ize the hit by pitched ball with a
gift of first base. they have not changed
the rule relieving, the batter from time
at bat when hit by pitched ball. Yet a
make hit eff the next one pitched. Ac-
cording to the strict Interpretation of the
rules he might not be given time at bat
for his hit.

open way. at the Turkish Embassy

RACE WAS CALLED OFF,
Time Limit saved Constitution An
other Drubbing.

Newport, r. L., Sept. 2.-The sec
ord official trial race of the Columbia
and Constitution to-day had practically
no result. The yachts. for lack of wind
were unable to finish within the time
limit of five and one-half hours.
At $50 o'clock this evening the con-
test came to an inglorious conclusion,
two miles to the eastward of Brentons S
reef lightship. At that time the Colum-
bia led by a good quarter of a mile.
The course was triangular, ten nauti-
cal miles to a leg.
After crossing the line at exactly the
same moment six seconds after gun
fire with the Constitution in the wind
ward berth, the Columbia worked out
and getting her wind free, forged
ahead. The Constitution tackled off
shore and shortly after the Columbia
followed, going to windward and pass
ing her. From then on to the windward
mark it was nothing but a steady gain
for the old boat, and when both had
rounded It was found that the Colum-
bia had gained four minutes and fifty
five seconds, the worst beating the
Constitution had yet received.
On the second leg the wind fell very
light and the Constitution. bringing it
up with her. gained slightly. After
rounding the second mark four minutes
and thirty seconds behind and start
ing for home, the Constitution carried
up about all the wind there was and
passed her rival. Then the breeze came
up again, and the Columbia once more
shot ahead. Shortly after the race was
called off with the Columbia well in
the lead. It will be resafled to- morrow
afternoon. the start being at 2 o'clock.

New York, Sept. 2.-The team of the
District of Columbia, made up of
twelve men. won the Hilton trophy
match at the Sea Girt ranges to-day
from eleven teams of twelve men each
who shot for this prize. The contest
was so keen that the result was in
doubt until the last bullet flashed
through the target. In winning the
District of Columbia team broke the
record. which it established in 1895,
making a score of 109S.
The best individual shooting done In
this match was that of Sergt. Cory,
of the Twelfth Regiment, New York,
who made a possible" at the 600 yard
range and was only six points from a
possible" at all the ranges, the dis
tances being 200, 500 and 600 yards. The
New York team had a lead of II points
when 1t left the first stage, but the
marksmen from the District of Column
Dia overcame this in the last two dis
tances. A "bull' was made by Wells of
New York, on the wrong target and ac-
cordlng to the rules this was marked

Their score was 1903.

Colon. Colmbia, Aug. S1-CDelayed
three days by the censor) ).-Bocas del
Toro. 14O miles west of Colon, is vir-
tually besieged by the Liberals or in
surgents.
They number at least 200, and, as
already cabled, occupy Provision ISL
and, which is opposite the town and
commands the entrance to the harbor.
They are fairly we'll armed possessing
two small modern cannon, as we'll as
plenty of ammunition, and are COM
manded by Nicaraguan. Among them
are many Nicaraguan and Costa Rican
Liberals.
For more than a month the Liberals
have been threatening the town. About
a fortnight ago they improved their
position on Provision Island. about a
mile and a half from Bocas del Toro.
which also Is on an island; and the
opposing forces have occasionally ex-
changed shots. although. with the ex-
ception of one Jamaican wounded
there have been no casualties.
The Liberal position is strong. and the
situation is likely to remain as 1t is
until one side or the other makes an
attack. Such an action would subject
the attacking party to the severe hre
of their opponents, as 1t would be
necessary to pass from Bocas del Toro
to Provision Island, or vice versa, in
small open boats. Neither side is in
clined to take this risk.
Martial law prevails in Bocas del
Toro. The authorities have stopped
communication with other ports, except
Colon. They have stopped local fishing
and forbidden passage along the streets
after o'clock at night Foreigners
claim that the measur es adopted for
harbor supervision materially injure
commerce.
The United States, French. British
and German consular agents in Bocas
del Toro told the Colombian comman-
der there that if the severe harbor re-
strictions interrupting commerce were
not adopted they would call for gun
boats. These representations result
ed in a limited Improvement only In
harbor conditions.
The local trade, which has been
chiefly in bananas sent to the United
States, is virtually dead. Fruit steam
ers from Mobile and New Orleans are
getting only partial cargoes, the dis
turbed conditions preventing work on
the plantations.
The United States consular agent in
Bocas del Toro has made an urgent
appeal to the United States consul in
Colon to send a gunboat.

AN ASSURED POSITION HERS.
Miss EnstwicIS Comes of Good Phil
adelphia stock.

hueAputH STOCK.
Philadelphia, Sept. 2.-Friends of Miss
Marie Josephine Eastwick learned with
surprise to-day the story of her trou-
BILE in London. Although she has only
been an occasional visitor to Philadel-
phia in recent years, her charming
personality and her high social posi-
tion in this city have, despite her in
difference to society, made her well
known in local social circles.
Miss Eastwiek is about 32 years old.
She is a granddaughter of .he late
Harrison Eastwick. Her father, Ed
ward p. Eastwick, was formerly asso-
ciated with the Havemeyers in the
sugar refining business, and when he
retired, fourteen years ago, was re-
puted to be millionaire.
Fond of horses. dogs and all out
door sports. she was from the first
averse to the social preferment that
her family's position and wealth as
sured her. In course of time her spir-
it of independence asserted itself so
strongly that at frequent intervals she
was estranged from the members of
her immediate family. While in this
country she regarded New York as
her home, and stopped at the Waldorf
Astoria. She made numerous visits to
her brother, Spencer Eastwick, who is
in the sugar business in New Orleans.
