WALLER WAS I.
Another Attack of the Suiks
 Sent Him to the Bench.

The People Present Demanded His Re moyal from the Game-With Good
 Chances to Win from New London,
 He Threw Them Away-He Will Be
 Given a Rest For a Few Days-Col- llflower Has Been Released-New London Found Us Easy to Beat-Re- suits of Other Games.
 Out of respect to the fans who have been coming out so generously to pat ronize the games since Manager liar rington has taken hold of the team, and in order to preserve his own dighl- fy and protect the patrons from a repetition of such an exhibition as that of yesterday, the manager should pun fsh Pitcher Waller, and punish niJn well, too This punishment should not be inflicted and later on remitted, either. The whole trouble with this young twirler is that his head is grow ing too big for his hat, and that fact was discovered when he had pitched his first few games. It was a shame to see the chances of winning game thrown away by the sulkiness of a pitcher, who has been guilty or tue same thing before. It is no wonder that the people who were present were
  from the game. Good pitcher as he is, the majority of those present yes terday would not care a rap if Waller was suspended for the rest of the sea- son. He should be reminded that he is not the whole thing in the Water bury team and the sooner he puts his head in a compress and has it reduced to its normal condition the better 1t will be for himself and the more satis- factory will It be to the patrons of ball games in this city.
 It promised to be an interesting game with New London aside from the errors, which were very rank. In the very first inning New London scored without making hit. Colli- flower, who was on first. muffed the first ball thrown to him. Mccormick made a mess of another one and in a mix up around second base Battam came in with the run. There were no more runs scored until the fourth, when Waller began to show signs of contrariness. In that inning he did not pitch as he could, and the conse- quences were that three singles and a triple were made off his delivery. This netted two runs He went into the box the next inning with an angry lcok on his face and a swagger that said plainly as if he spoke 1t out, "I don't care whether I pitch or not" The first two men at the bat should have been retired, but Collifiower made another error and Murphy fol lowed with another. 4 two base hit added to the trouble, and then Waller began to toss them over the plate. Matthews, who was catching, stopped and told him if he was not going to try to pitch to get out of the game 1t was pure luck that only two runs were made in that inning.
 Clancy was told to warm up then, and Waller again showed his temper by getting into an argument with Manager Harrington and with some of the spectators who had asked to have him removed from the game. He started for the dressing room, but was told to return and take his place on the bench and to keep his uniform on also. He retired to the dressing room. however, but thought better of it and he returned and sat on the bench until the end of the game. Clancy went in In the sixth and two runs were scored in that inning on two singles and an error by Clancy himself. There was no more scoring and no more hits by New London in the other three :I- nings- Waterbury scored her one run in the second inning on double by Mccormick and single by Murphy.
 The score and summary:
