There was just little excitement In
the harbor last evening, for Captain
Keans. OF the steamer Chatham, OF the
Merchants and Miners Transportation
company, refused To leave the dock un-
til the barge Norah had been shifted
from what he considered was In the way
OF outgoing steamers. He could find no
one about the docks that had
proper authority TO move her, so he
started for the City hall to call upon
His Honor Mayor Granger, but during
his travels Harbor Master Bucklin was
located and sent a tug down the harbor
and had the barge shifted. The Chatham
and sister ship draw many feet of water,
and the channel being narrow require
about all of the room that there Is to
spare.

Baseball Politics Grow Lively as the

The past week has been lively one In
the baseball world. First came a huge
tale OF consolidation. with a gigantic
baseball trust. capital S50.0oo.0oo. with Jim
Hart and Andy Freedman as its mana
gers.
While this was evidently an attempt at
spread upon the consolidation story
printed some weeks ago. IL caused much
excitement among magnates and fans.
James A. Hart said that IL was news To
him--that he had not discussed any such
business with Freedman, and that he did
not think any combination Of interests
was under way.

CHIPS FROM THE DIAMOND.

Saturday afternoon on Harris avenue
grounds Nicholson File works team will
play the Troy team OF Olneyville. A bat
tie royal is expected as the latter team
has been strengthened for this game. The
game is a benefit for William III. Holt. the
Nicholson File works pitcher. who broke
his arm n few weeks ago when pitching
against the General Fire Extngusher
company's team.
Kitson made n double-header record in
Cincinnati on Sunday. IL was the first
home run over the left field fence on the
grounds. and Kitson's first since he join
ed the National league.

BROWN DOINGS.
Football Team viii Make Good
Flight With Bostons.

The practice yesterday was fast and
hard while IL lasted. IL was by far the
best exhibition OF football which the
Brown men have put up this season;
every man on the team got into the game
for all he was worth and played as
though 1t was his last chance.
Before the real work OF the afternoon
Capt. Bates practiced drop kicking. All
