The general impression that it is a
bad thing for players to get after each
other during a game is entirely wrong. 20
said Manager Kelley, of Cincinnati.

among the men; where mistakes are
CLOSED over and poor playing is met
with sympathy instead of roasts. and
there is but little hope for success for
that organization. On the other hand.
If set OF players are continually get

pointed out and poor play is censured.

ments of winning combination. Ac-

ager Hanlon, OF the Brooklyns, is one
OF the most quiet men in the business.
Spectators never hear word from him
and his general demeanor gives one the
impression that he is firm believer in
all that is quiet and orderly among his
men. That is a great mistake Hanlon
rea!izes-as Comiskey did when he had
the old ST. Louis Browns-that in order
to keep team on edge all the time it
is necessary to give them something.

were more alert and anxious than they

-Four regularly scheduled games were
played in the Departmental League last
week. and all we're very good exhibitions
OF how the national game should be
played. Five were scheduled. but the
first was postl oned on account Of the
death of Senator Mcmillan.
The Wednesday and Thursday games
were not played on account of the con-
tests between two picked league teams
and female team from Chicago. The
girls put UP good game. but the

be too fast and shifty for them. and
they dropped both games. On Friday

GEN. MILLER DECLARES
HIS WIFE IS INSANE
Sensational Case to Be Heard
in Pittsburg.
Wife Makes Grave Charges and Hel
Friends Say Proceedings Are to
Forestall Divorce Suit.

PITTSBURG. Pa. July 10.-A hearing
will be commenced here tomorrow to
determine the sanity OF Mrs. Charles
Miller, wife Of Maj. Gen. Charles Miller.
of the National Guard of Pennsylvania.
General Miller made the application for
a commission in lunacy yesterday. and
the court named E. E. Hughes as com
missioner. Mr.. Hughes then appointed
a Jury OF six experts.
It is declared the generals application
was due to a threatened suit for divorce
by Mrs. Miller on the grounds of in
fidelity. 1t is said that she will name
as correspondents five women-three in
New York and two in Pennsylvania.
It is known that Mrs. Miller has en-
gagged counsel, but there is as yet no
record of fling an application in di-
vorce. Several months ago, it is said,
the general settled upon his wife $780,
900, with yearly allowance of $40, 600,
and that If she is declared insane he
will try to get the money back.
1t is declared that in her allegations
Mrs. Miller makes extra culinary state
ments regarding the family life: that
for two years she has been virtually
prisoner. in the care Of two nurses, but
that she has discharged them and in
tends TO be free.

NEW ORLEANS. July 1O.-The report

Colombians and refugee Nicaraguans, is
confirmed from Bocas del Toro.
General Calderon. Nicaraguan exile
and bitter opponent of President Ze-
laya. left Colon with a number OF refu-
gees in the Colombian cruiser General
Pinzon. 1t was freely declared that the
Pinzon would land the Nicaraguans at
some point on the Nicaraguan coast,
where a revolution would be proclaimed
by General Calderon, and all persons op-
posed to the Zelaya government would
be called on TO join the movement.
The invaders had rifled field pieces, In
addition to the armament of the cruiser
The action taken by the Colombian
government in detailing It's best vessel
the Pinzon, to act as an escbrt to a rev.
clutionary party, invading a neighbor-
ing state, is due to the belief that Ze-
laya furnished arms, ammunition, and
men to the Colombian revolutionists on
the isthmus.
1t has since been reported that the
Calderon expedition made a successful
landing in Nicaragua, but no details
have been received as to the revolution.
There are thousands of Nicaraguan

MANY OFFICIALS RESIGN.
Virginia State Officers Refuse to Give
Up Railroad Passes.

NORFOLK, Va, July 1O.-Virginia' S
new constitution went into effect today.

pany. contemplates resigning as police
commissioner. and 4. II. Wright, agent

Another prominent city official who
has a comfortable salary says he has
returned all passes and that any official
is a fool not to do so. The law Is man
datory and explicit. 1t IS no office or

THEODORAVAN WICK
RELEASED UNDER BOND.
Hearir and Mrs. O'Malley Must Answer
Serious Charges.

SSA4JAo NiAsii SSS"
PHILADELPHIA, July 10.-Mrs Aus
tin O'Malley and William J. Hearin had
a further hearing before Magistrate
KochersperEer this afternoon. and both
were released under 81 200 bail. They
are charged with larceny and conspiracy
to rob. They were arrested one week
ago when. as is alleged, they were about
to eloDe.
Hearin is a nice-looking chap, ap-
parently not more than twenty years
old. He was pale and nervous, the lat
ter condition being largely due. the po-
lice say. to his having been deprived Of
cigarettes since his arrest.
Assistant District Attorney Smyth
asked that Mrs. o'Malley be held for
larceny and Hearin be held for conspir-
acy. Henry J. Scott, the woman's cOun-
sci. promptly asked why the assistant
district attorney appeared in the case.
Il want the case TO go on. My client
has been prosecuted, and We wish to
know what charges we are to meet, he
said.
Further argument followed. and Mr..
Scott asked that the defendants be dis
charged.
The magistrate said: Although all
sorts of rumors have been circulated re-
garding this case, l can only consider
the testimony at the other hearing.
This. to my mind. makes a case OF lar
ceny and conspiracy. and hold the pris-
oners in $1,000 each for court.
