National League Clubs Standing.

Whenever the Washington and Baltimore
clubs get together, an exciting contest can
always be looked for. and yesterdays game
at American Park was no exception to the
rule. Manager McGraw started the pot
boiling in the very first inning by calling
Umpire Mannasau beautiful name for
being declared out at third close play,
and as result he was put out of the game
Wherever the Baltimorcs go this season
two umpires follow and yesterday Sheridan
and Mannasau introduced the double um-
pire system to this city for the first time
this season. The two arbitrat1rs cannot be
charged with being home umpires'' yes
terday as all the close decisions went to
the Orioles, and in addition several which
were not close. AS a result of these de-
cisions. several hundred hot-headed FANS
made matters quite lively for both umpires
after the game. and the police were called
upon to escort them to the cars.
The game was a well-coutested one from
start to finish and it required ten innings
before a decision could be reached. when
the Baltimores won out by the score Of
3 to l.
Case Patten was on the rubber for the
Senators, and with perfect support would
nave pitched Shut-Out game, and the
same applies to McGinnity who did even
better in the matter of hits. the home team
getting its solitary tally through nIisplays
of the birds.
The first five innings were fruitless in the
run-getting line TO both teams. although
Baltimore started off in the first inning as
though it would walk away with the
game In the easiest sort of style. McGraw
opened up with a double to left and then,
in endeavoring to show up" Catcher
Clarke, tried to steal third Captaia Bill
sent beauty to Coughlin and the Balti-
more leader was nailed in artistic style,
Mannasau being right on top of the play.
McGraw then said things" to Mannasau
and as a result reclined on the bench for
the remainder of the game. Williams fol-
lowed with triple, but it was wasted, as
keister went out, COughlin to DUNCAN.
Baltimore Scores.
In the sixth Baltimore scored a tally but
II was a suspicious one, and closer watch
on Williams by Mannasau might have null
lifted the clever Orioles efforts. Williams
began work with hot one to Clingman,
which the latter failed to hold. Keister
followed with line drive into right, and

Many records were broken yesterday.
They began to go in the mile event. when
the men had passed the half-mile mark,
with Otto Wahle Of the New York Athletic
Club in the lead. From the time that the
660-yard record was. broken the swimmers
did not stop until they had broken every
record up to the mile.
Kollock of Philadelphia was the first to
lower a record. In the half mile he led
for nearly three-quarters of the distance.
When he crossed the 660-yard mark IT was
announced that he made the distance in
10 43, clipping four seconds OF the former
record.
Later in the day Otto Wahle of New
York lowered this mark to 1887 As and
continued to lower every record up to the

AFTERMATH OF HENLEY REGATTA.
Chance Remark of American Anxers
the British Crew,

Nn0nce Hemark OF American AnMerx
the British Crew.
A dispatch from London last night saws.
Both the Americans and the British have
been congratulating themselves on the fact
that the Henley regatta passed off without
international friction of any kind The
congratulations were premature Friday
night the Leanders gave dinner to the
Pennsylvanians. All the prominent rowing
authorities were present. The speeches
teemed with compliments. The British
said they had never met a better or more
sportsmanlike crew. The TPennsylvanians
replied that they hadinever been more fair
ly and squarely beaten, the only explana-
ton was that the Leanders were the bet
ter crew.
The speeches were all OF this tenor till
one of the American crew said he wished
to say that their treatment at Henley was
splendid: they had found all the arrange
ments In regard to the races perfectly fair
contrary to what they had been told -
The British oarsmen were dumfounded
and did not answer while the Pennsylva-
mans were there. but the storm broke out
Immediately after they had departed, and
still continues. The Leanders are bitterly
indignant. and say they, will not row
against the Pennsylvanians again.
The head master of Eton writes to the
Times today advocating the exclusion of
all foreign crews from Henley. eff the
writes DR.. Ware, whatever we might
have thought, We could not have uttered
our thoughts without inviting the disa-
greeable retort that we did not know how

putation of churlishness discourtesy

lean brethren, who, at the cost of infinite
pains, months of preparation. and great
expenditure. have come to partake in our
regatta. The good nature Of the stewards
of the Henley regatta in permitting the
rowing trophies intrusted to them to be
contended for by all the world will endan-
ger the best interests of amateur rowing.

originally presented.
Il do not wish foreigners excluded out
of any selfish fear lest the prizes go to

Craftsmanship may be preserved from the
deadly inroads of professionalism, which
Is already making a business of so much
that ought only to be pleasure and threat

thought to be desirable there will be no

To the hot-headsd spectators who wanted
to mob the umpires, the following rule
should prove interesting reading, it
demonstrates that Sheridan and Mannasau
were acting correctly and impartially.
The rule covering the point is section 8,
rule 35, which declares that 'if a person
not engaged in the game should retain pos

call time and require each base runner to

Hayden and WaldrOn May BE Seen in
TOday's Game.
Manager Manning, after considerable
Eustling. succeeded in getting two new
players in line last evening. Catcher Mike
Grady was dropped off at Philadelphia yes
terday morning as the Senators came
through that city, with instructions to hunt
up Hayden, get his name to a contract
and bring him right along to Washington.
Last night Grady wired Hayden's terms
and Manager Manning telegraphed back an
acceptance. with instructions to be here in
time for this afternoons game. Grady and
Hayden arrived this morning
Outfelder Waldron also telegraphed his
terms and he was instructed to come to
Washington at once. 1t isquite distance
from Milwaukee to Washington, and he
may not get in In time for todays game.
If he should he will certainly be played. as
Manager Manning will waste no more time
depending upon his present outfit landing
the Washington club in the first division.
Both Hayden and Waadron come to
Washington with good regulations as ball
players, both being able to hit the ball and
are fast on their feet Waidron will prob
ably relieve Foster in left and Hayden, by
going into right, will allow Dale Gear to
get back on the rubber and pitch the sort
OF games which won him fame in the
American League last season.
Manager Manning was very wroth this
morning over the decisions Of the umpires
In yesterdays game and insisted that he
would protest the contest with President
Johnson on the ground that Manassau.
who was officiating on the bases, should
have made the decisions around first base,
and that Sheridan had no right to require
Quinn and Coughlin to return to second
and first base. Mr.. Manning rarely protests
an umpire but he says he has been getting
such raw" deals Of late that his patience
is about exhausted.

BANNER MEET NF HE SEASON.
The Racing at tie Coliseum Track
Friday Night.


The banner meet nfs the season is ex-
pected at the Coliseum Friday night, at
which time the biz twshty-mile motor
paced race between Tom Linton and AL
bert Charspion is scheduled to take place.
Everything is in readnessl for good meet,
and the electric lights around the big wood
en- bowl will be tested tonight and again
tomorrow night, in order that they will
be in perfect condition for Friday night.
Tom Linton, who will ride against the
champion of Frame, Albert Champion, is
considered by many the greatest race
winner Europe ever saw. He made his
record years ago and has held it, and is at
the present time the reigning sensation of
Europe. being one Of the most-sought
riders on the tracks of America Linton
won his races all over Europe, jumping
here, there and everywhere, and riding
any one at almost any distance Just be-
fore leaving his home country Linton rode
the greatest race os his life With as husy
the Welshman mas ridden for all of the
twelve years since he dropped his pick in
the coal mine in Wales. Linton wants to
win the international series. and he is
working as he never worked before with
this object in view. He wants to get at

Cycle Notes.

The amateurs competing at Madison
Square Garden this summer will have a
special prize which is to be awarded to
them at the close of the year. The win
ner of the greatest number of points in
open competition will receive a handsome
prize. while the second man in this race
for grand prize will also be suitably re-
warded.
Prospects for a five-cornered motor-paced
race between Elkes, Nelson, Walthour
Mcfarland and Michael before the season
closes could scarcely be better. Such a
contest could not we'll be arranged before
the close Of the circuit season in Septem-
Der. but whenever 1t occurs 1t is pretty
miles to see. Each of the men mentioned
have been approached on this matter, and
1t Is reported that each is not only willing
but anxious to get in.
Fred" Hoyt. who used tow line in a
fifty-mile paced race at Manhattan Beach
on Thursday evening, appeared before the
board of control of the National Cycling
Association yesterday. He confessed to
third mile of the race, one end of the
string being connected with the belt of
the rear rider of his motor tandem, while
Hoyt held the other end in his mouth. He
said he had gained no advantage from the
connection and asked for the clemency Of
the board. AS he already had lost the
$500 first prize in the race by his act it is
probable that his punishment will not be
severe.
The members of the Yale Cycle Club who
went to Hagerstown July and returned
much disappointed at the outcome have
| resumed training on the local bowl.
In announcing the events at the Manhat-
tan Beach track tonight the management
also announces that the track will be
lighted better than last week" 1t will be
seen that the Washington Coliseum is not
the only track in America which has
trouble with the lights.
Owing to rain the grand circuit meet at
Charles River Park was postponed to to-
morrow evening, when the one-third-mil lie
national championship race and the finish
ing two hours of the Golden Wheel race
will be run.
Roy Wilcox has left the city for two
months and will not be seen on the local
track until his return.
