Another Game Today.

After the game between the Senators and
Georgetowns last evening the students got
together and after a hasty consultation a
challenge was issued to the Washingtons to
to play again today. Manager LOTUS hur-
ried to the club house. informed the Sena-
tors of the situation, and was told TO grasp
the opportunity. Each team has scored a
victory over the other. and each feels con-
fident that a third game VIII give it the

against the Senators in the first game, will
be on the rubber for Georgetown, while
Carrick and Lee will probably serve them
up for the Senators. In the face of yes
terday's good game, another big crowd will
probably turn out again today.

the Allegheny river from Pittsburg. Nc
Govern weighed in at 49, McCloskey at lib
pounds Tim Hurst was referee.
The boys fought ten rounds and Hurst
declared 1t draw. McGovern outpointed
McCloskey. but the latter was the stronger

with the decision, and Loudon Campbell. a
local fighter. slugged Tim Hurst when the
latter had his back turned.
Hurst in the scrimmage knocked out
Red Mason, the fight promoter. Terry
McGovern was in the corner for his
brother. Among the notable events was
the number of pockets picked. More than

Opinion of John I. Rogers,

Col. John 1. Rogers, one of the owners of
the Philadelphia club, and who drew up the
contract which has stood the test of the
Pennsylvania supreme court, had the fol-
lowing to say to a Philadelphia reporter
last evening on the matter:
The decision of the supreme court Of
the state of Pennsylvania in reversing the
ruling of the lower court is a complete vim
dication for the Philadelphia Base Ball
Club. Not only has the court sustained
our argument In full but 1t has gone still
further in it's ruling. We have served no.
tice not only upon Lajoie, Bernhard and
Fraser, who were mentioned In the deci-
sion. but also upon Delehanty. Flick, Monte
Cross, Wolverton. Duggleby, Ortiz. Town
send and Mcfarland to report at once for
duty at the Philadelphia Ball Park. While
we cannot force these men to play for our
club by the ruling of the supreme court
we can restrain them from playing on any
other club in the state of Pennsylvania
Should these players attempt to take
part in any base ball contest outside Of the
state Of Pennsylvania they will be in con-
tempt of court, and We shall bring suit
against the players and the management
of the club for which they play for heavy
damages.
while the decision is a state one, the
fact Of it's being practically unanimous
would indicate that judges in other states
will recognize the ruling.
81 shall apply at once In view OF the
courts decision. for an injunction against
the other players. which will be issued in
the ordinary course of events, as the SUI
preme courts decision is imperative and
will go into effect at once.
1T is impossible for me to say at this
early date what action the players may
take or whether they will return to our
club this year. One thing. is certain. how
ever. that il they do not play on the PhiIa-
delphia National League Club they will not
be permitted to play on any other"
Reports from Chicago say that President
johnson of the American League was sur
priscd over the decision, but that he had
nothing to say as to the course that would

Players Would Suffer.

The American League people believe that
the National League Is playing with
fire in getting this decision against the ball
players, as the sentiment of the country
it is claimed, will be turned against the old
league more decidedly than it is at present
They hold that the sentiment that a man
should receive as much pay as his work is
worth is universally entertained When
the following list is scanned it will be found
how the different players will suffer if they
have to return to the Philadelphia club at
last years compensation:

Much Discussion of the Cele-
brated Lajoie Case.
PLAYERS SURPRISED
DECISION DOES NOT APPLY OUT
SIDE OF PENNSYLVANIA.
Senators Defeat the Georgetowns in
Well-Played Game-Races
at Aqueduct.

The National League certainly threw a
great big bombshell in the American League
ranks yesterday in the decision of the
Pennsylvania supreme court in the Lajoie
case. The case had been hanging fire for
several months, and the ablest of lawyers
had declared that a decision in favor of
the Philadelphia club was almost an impos-
sibility upon the face of the evidence Of
fered. But there Is no telling what the
courts will do with legal problem. and
yesterdays decision has set the base ball
world by the ears for the time being
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1902-04-22
Local Players Notified.

Immediately after the decision was hand
ed down Manager Shetzline of the Phila-
| delphia club sent the following telegram to
| Ortiz and Townsend Third Baseman VOL
| verton and Outfelder Delehanty of the
| local club:
| supreme court overrules court below in
| Lajoie case. Decides our contract abso-
| lutely binding on you. You are hereby Or
dered to report forthwith to me at Phila-
| delphia Ball Park, for performance of du-
| ties under your contract. Refusal to obey
| this will be at your peril"
| The players had expected nothing of this
| sort, and, of course, there was consterna-
| ton IN the Senators camp for short while.
But after discussion of the verdict the
| players took better view of the situation
and decided to d man that they would not
return to the Quaker city. Several original
and highly favored remarks were uttered
| by the players concerned and the ears of
| Col. Rogers and Manager Shetzline must
| have been burning last evening. If it were
| possible to take this quartet of players from
| the Washington club, Manager Lotus
would certainly be in deep, deep hole as
the team would be crippled beyond repair.
| The legal aspect of the case was too
| formidable for Manager Lotus or his play
| erS and they had little to say as to their
future action or what they thought of the
decision.
View of Clubs Counsel.
The Evening Star reporter turned for re-
lief to the clubs counsel, Wilton j. Lam
bert, and the latter untangled the skein
in a clever and interesting manner Mr.
Lambert said
1.-The case applies solely to Pennsylvania,
and will only hold good against Lajoie
himself. Before the players on the WASH
ington club who were with the Philadelphia
team last year can be prevented from play
ing with our organization this season Sepa-
rate and distinct suits will have to be filed
against them.
IF you remember. Pitchers Fraser and
Bernhard We're included in the Lajois case
when the suit was first brought but their
names were dropped and test case made
upon the star player. This decision may
keep Lajoie from playing in Philadelphia
but will not affect him elsewhere, and none
of the others players unless new suits are
instituted.
The American League club will undoubt-
edly carry the case to the Supreme Court
of the United States, secure an order STOP
ping proceedings while the case is pending
before the higher body and the situation
Will revert to its old standing of last sea-
son.
The main point to be looked at is that
the decision applies to Pennsylvania alone
and in the case of new suits the PLAYERS
interested will have to be kept out of the
game In Philadelphia, but as | have Just
remarked this is a remote possibility, and
it looks to me as if the case will go to the
Supreme Court of the United States, and
when the case is finally settled all the con-
tracts will be out of date
Mr.. Lambert said that President Postal
of the Washington club would reach this
city tonight and that a consultation will at
once be held when future action will be
decided upon.

While these figures are not official, they
are approximately correct
Should the other clubs of the National

ing players will be concerned:

Hid From Her Husband.

Missing Irene Arnheim, the 16-year-
old daughter of Eugene Arnhe1m, OF
Crotona Park, Bronx, was found IN the
postoffice building by Detective Ser

eFEEc1s OF BuLlETs ON RIOTS.

The police force of Belgium have
inst gone thru the experience of all
constabularies in dealing with rioters.
Hinder s,,ise of a socialist demonstra-
ton and lawless elements of the capital
CITY of Belgium became engaged IN
rioting. The lives of all officials were
endangered, public property was being
DESTROYED and even private property
ieopardized. The police beat back mobs
with the fiat sides of their swords but
the mobs only jeered, the guns OF the
soldiers were then fired with blank
cartridges but failed to brighten the
rioters who replied with shower OF
missiles and finally, after days of such
futile efforts to establish order in the
city, the rioters made bold to shoot
at the soldiers with revolvers where
upon a single volley of real bullets was
discharged into the mob. killing several
rioters, after which the lawless dis
turbances were at an end. When the
nlObS had dispersed ana tHe pooi VIZ
tins were picked up 1t was found that
they were merely the scum OF the town
not members of the organized socialists
at all The same experience has been
met in cities all over the world until
it is becoming accepted in police circles
Il that the quicker severe measures are
used the less will be the destruction of
property and loss of life in the aggre-
gate. In nearly all riots where mobs
of any size congregate the use of bull
lets become necessary in the end If 1t
were known that bullets would be used
the moment the military We're defied
the cost in life would not be any
greater and rioting would undoubtedly
become much less frequent. No mat
ter what merit there may be in the
contentious of those who first arouse
disturbance lawless mobs should
never be tolerated and as rule the
rioters are not the persons at all in
trested in the questions at issue but
are merely rioters by nature.

Aloss TO ORTHODOXY.

T. De Witt Talmage. probably the
hest known and most widely read
preacher in the world, died Saturday at
his home in. the city of Washington.
Thru his editorial connection with the
Christian Herald and other religious
publications and the wide publication
of his sermons in country weekly news
papers Talmage's name has been
household word wherever the English
language is read. 1t would be hard to
find an American child to whom the
name and profession of the great Pres
byterian preacher, lecturer, author
and editor Is not familiar, and the con-
gregation he preached to was consd-
tuted of the readers of more than $500
different papers and aggregated an es-
innate of 100000 people. His pro-
nounced pulpit eccentricities and ex-
aggeration of expression drew multi
tudes to see and listen to his effective
oratory wherever he appeared, on the
lecture platform or Chautauqua assem-
blies. His success as financier of
churches was phenomenal. He had the
faculty Of church building, and as the
church building grew too small to ac-
commodate the crowds that gathered to
hear him Mr. Talmage never failed to
find the funds necessary to its enlarge
n1ent or the construction of new one
Absolutely fearless in the pulpit he
made enemies but to gain greater
congregation. His life was one of
ceaseless energy, devoted entirely to
the cause Of which he was great ex-
ponent.
Talmage was essentially preacher
of the orthodox commonalty. He was
the connecting link between the old
time campmeeting and the trained
choir, pipe organ and cushioned pews
of the present. Imaginative. gifted
with superb power of expression and
stern with the liberalism of the print
tive church, he voiced their simple
toned religio4ists who delighted in him.
Lacking the depth and breadth of
Swing or Beecher, but forceful as
either, he was himself an idealized cir
cult rider. He held out the literal
promises and shook at sinners the lit
eral threats of the scripture. In his
i,,,o rfy,o No 1,alJ
and caught the glitter of jewels and
CLEAN of gold from the walls and
streets of heaven. With Talmage there
was no ground of compromise. No
dream Of ultimate redemption after
death or an atonement reaching out in
to eternity had place in his theology.
He was perhaps the last of the great
preachers strictly, uncompromisingly
andl thoroughly orthodox.
His immense popularity as preach
err and the marvellous demand for his
syndicate sermons would seem to dis
prove in large part the allegations at
present so freely made that the ortho-
dox church and preacher are declining
While this assertion may be true of the
city churches, the great country Glen
tele to which Talmage most strongly
appealed has lost none of it's liberalism.
The country church remains orthodox.
Talmage's place in his pulpit will be
filed, and possibly as well or better to
the satisfaction of his immediate con-
gregation, but the congregation that
awaited with interest the coming of the
weekly sermon that appealed to it's
heart and strengthened it's hope and
confirmed it's belief will long await his
successor
