BALL WAR CONTINUES.
Spalding Clubs Stand by Their Leader
and Return Resignation.

After a conference OF several hours at
Pittsburg Saturday by representatives of
the Pittsburg. Chicago, Brooklyn and Phila-
delphia clubs. members of the National
League it was decided TO show no signs Of
surrender to what is known as the Freed
man-Brush combine
A letter dated Point Iona. Cal, Februa-
ry II, 1902, from Mr. A. G. Spalding. was
received. in which he rendered his resigna-
tion of the presidency of the league, II. in
the judgment of the four clubs, 1t should be
deemed advisable to accept 1t. After full
interchange of views it was unanimously
resolved such resignation be disapproved
and respectfully returned to Mr.. Spaiding.
In their statement, given out after the
confere nee they say that Mr.. Spa!ding
nomination and election to such presidency
was in support OF principle. which is the
eradication from league councils OF unfair
unjust and unsportsmanlike methods which
have marred the leagues record. In other
words. these four clubs announce that they
want the elimination of what Is known as
'Brushism" and "Freedmanism. without
any antagonism. however. to the personals
ties OF Messrs. Brush and Freedman. who.
Evening star., 1902-02-24

they say. were and are the authors and ex-
ponents Of the said isms.
1t was further resolved In connection
with this matter that we know Of no rea-
son why we should abandon such policy,
and we believe that Mr.. A. G. Spalding Is
the ideal and practical leader to enforce
It,"
Inasmuch as the question as to the valid
tty Of Mr.. Spalding's election to the office
OF president Is now pending in the supreme
court of New York, and as arguments by
counsel pro and con on that subject will be
made during the first week Of next month,
it was thought unwise and inpolitic to make
any further declaration at present other
than that these four clubs will abide by the
decision of the court and will join in the
Of the National League, either In recogni-
tion Of Mr.. A. G. Spalding as president
thereof, or. in the event Of an adverse de-
cision Of the court, for the purpose Of filling
the vacancy thus declared to exist in that
office, in accordance with the constitution
of the league and with the rules Of parlia-
mentary law.
Owing to the storm John I. Rogers Of
Philadelphia and G. H. Ebbetts and Ed
ward Hanlon Of Brooklyn did not arrive
In Pittsburg until late. The others present
were James A. Hart of Chicago and Barney
Dreyfus of Pittsburg. President Ebbetts.
in reference to the report that the Brook
lyn club was ready to break away, said
before the meeting:
'"The Brooklyn club is not weakening one
iota in its position, and it's actions at all
times will speak louder than words. We
are as firm as ever in our support Of Mr..
Spaldng.
President Hart Of the Chicago club also
said: 1T is principle or surrender. We
have stood for principle in base ball. and il
surrender to Freedman. Spalding is good
enough for u.s."

A. 8. Cragin was started before 10 o'clock
in the morning and the play was contin-
uous from that time until dark. Paret
pulled out the last set against Cragin, and
then beat H. w. Warner rather easily in
the semi-fna1 round.
The final match in singles was the fea-
ture Of the day, and it took the full five
sets to decide 1t. Grant showed all Of the
wonderful speed and the hurricane service
that had beaten both Bostwick and Cragin,
two Of the championship favorites, and he
broke down through unsteadiness very lit
tie. In both the second and fourth sets
Grant had the lead and Paret just man
aged to pull both out by deuce scores. The
veteran found the usual fast overland ser
vice returned with interest every time by
Grant. so he shifted to an underhand cut
that proved very effective. This bothered
Grant good deal, and he seemed unable to
handle it successfully. Although badly ex-
hausted in the last set, Paret finally won
the match after Grant had lost lead Of
two sets to one, 5-3 and 3O-love. He sue
ceeds L. f. Ware. j. A. Allen and Hol-
combe Ward as indoor champion of Amer
lea.
In the doubles Grants remarkable speed
was again the feature. while Leroy did
splendid work, for he was the only fresh
one Of the four engaged in the finals. Bost-
wick and Cragin won the indoor champion
ship In doubles last winter, but they We're
no match for the younger pair yesterday.

NEW RACQUET CHAMPION.
Clarence Mackay Lowers Colors OF
Quincy Shaw in Final Round.


A new champion was made at Boston
Saturday afternoon when c. II. Mackay
Of the New York Racquet and Tennis Club
defeated Quincy A. Shaw. jr.. Of the Bos-
ton A. A. in the final round of the annual
tournament for the amateur racquet cham
pionship Of America. 1t was a splendid
exhibition Of racquets by two of the most
brilliant players Of the country. who by
consistent work went through the early
rounds in a comparatively easy manner.
Mackay fairly earned his title, playing
a careful, steady game, replete. however,
with brilliant placing. In the first game 1t
seemed to the spectators that Shaw would
win in one, two, three order. He scored
ace after ace on his remarkable service,
running out the game by the score OF
15-2. Mackay could not seem to fathom
Shaw's service, while the champion had
no difficulty with the New Yorker
In the second game quite the reverse oc-
CURED. Mackay won q brilliant game by
a score OF 1o-12. He seemed to be coming
all the time, while Shaw was not so bril-
liant as in the first game. Mackay altered
his style completely, serving slower and
playing a slower game all through. This
puzzled the Bostonian, who plays a hard
fast game. Shaw fell down time and again
on seemingly easy ones.
The third game was even easier for the
New Yorker. who won. Isl Condition
began to tell and Mackay was the fresher
Of the two and apparently in better shape
Shaw seemed to tire while Mackay kept
up his gait. The game put UP by the old
and new champions was as brilliant as has
ever been seen in Boston and the large
gallery appreciated it to the utmost.
The fourth and last game was stubborniy
contested and was replete with remarkable
rallies and beautiful plays. Mackay won
by score of 15-11 and takes the cham
pionship title.

McGovERN WHIPPED SULLIVAN.
Experts Declare the Bout to Have Been
Unusually Fast and Hard.

L
| Terry McGovern had the hardest battle of
his life at Louisville Saturday night to de-
! feat Dave Sullivan In fifteen rounds Ex-
! perts at the ringsde declare 1t to have been
| the hardest mill ever fought by feather
| weights. From the start until Sullivan wa 8
| counted out by Robert Fitzsimmons both
| men hammered away with all the energy
they possessed.
| McGoyern weighed 124a and Sullivan
| 125la. The articles Of agreement called for
| 126 pounds.
There has seldom been seen a battle
| where the issue was more In doubt. In one
round 1t would be Sullivan and in the next
| McGovern Then Sullivan would come
| strong again and even things up once more.
| McGovern. knowing that the fight meant
| his position In the front rank as fighter
| was after his man every second. In the
| majority of the rounds he was on the ag-
gressive and Sullivan was forced to do far
more defensive work than his opponent.
| He put up wonderful fight. however was
| game to the core and lost the fight more
| through blunder Of his own than because
| he was knocked out. When the finish
came, however. he was groggy and going
| fast. The chances are that he would never
have lasted many more rounds. even II he
| had risen to his feet before Fitzsimmons
| called ten.
| In the fifth round Sullivan was at h,s
best He forced the fighting and especially
| in the last half. and had McGovern plainly
going. The latter walked in a very un-
| steady fashion when he went to his
| corner, and nothing but his splendid recu-
| perating power enabled him to respond for
| the next round. He came out strong, how
| ever, and, although there were times when
| Sullivan seemed about to turn the tide his
| way again. from that time on McGovern
| kept steadily, but very slowly, getting the
| upper hand.
| He fought ever forward. and Sullivan
| was gradually. but surely, going backward
| Sullivan was badly punished his left ear
| being split open. his lips cracked his nose
| well pounded up and his right eye partly
| closed. The latter happened early in the
| fight. and McGovern paid particular atten-
| tion to it throughout.
| During the twelfth. thirteenth and four
! teenth rounds Sullivan was slowly going.
| McGovern was at him like wildcat every
| instant. He gave him no rest, and Sullivan
| was hanging on for his life.
/ The end came when the fifteenth round
| was nearly over. McGovern had forced
| landed storm of left swings. and. catch
| ing Sullivan square on the jaw, sent him
! down on his back. Sullivan was up like a
flash. but did not rise from his knees. He
| was confused. groggy and nearly out
| F1tzSimmonS counted nine, and as he ut
! tered the last word Sullivan started to rise,
but did not get higher than low crouch.
/ The instant his knee was off the floor Nc
| Govern was after him. and Sullivan, hard
| ly knowing what he was about. went down
| again. The referee promptly declared him
| out and McGovern the victor.

MISS STONE RELEASED.
She Arrives at Strumitza, Macedonia,
With Mrs Tsilka

A dispatch from Constantinople yesterday
says: Miss Ellen M. Stone. the American
missionary, who, with Nine. Tsilka, was
captured by brigands in the district of Sa-
lonika September ) last, has been released
and arrived at Strumitza, Macedonia at
o'clock this morning
Nobody was at Strumitza to meet Miss
Stone, as the brigands had given no indica-
tion as to where they proposed to release
the prisoners. Nine. Tsilka and her baby
were released at the same time. They are
all well. Miss Stone Immediately made
herself known to the authorities at Stru-
mitZa
The first news OF Miss Stones release
was contained in a telegram by Mr.. Dick
fnson. the American consul general at Con-
Stantinople, from the American vice con-
sui at Salonika. The telegram gives no de-
tails of the release. AS Strumitza Is near
the Sa!onka Uskub railroad Miss Stone
will proceed to Salonika without delay.
A dispatch from New York yesterday
says: Spencer Eddy. first secretary of the
United States legation at Constantinopie,
who had charge of the negotiations for the
release of Miss Ellen NJ. Stone and Mrs
Tsilka. arrived nere today on the Kron-
prinz Wilhelm. In an interview he said the
brigands captured an American rather than
any other missionaries. because they be-
lfeyed the Americans had the most money
and would be likely to pay the ransom.
Did the brigands want the money for
themselves! MIR. Eddy was asked.
NO. they did not and that is where the
people In America do not understand this
case. 1t is entirely a political matter and
all the people in Macedonia are in sympa-
thy with the kidnapping for they believe
It Is step toward freeing Macedonia from
iufkish rule, Inc same as Bulgaria has
been. and the money they demanded slOO.-
OOO) was intended for the Macedonian cause
If we had been dealing with the pro-
fessional brigands who wanted money
pure and simple. instead of the political
ones, Miss Stone would have been released
long ago. 1t is very likely that this cap.
ture was deliberated upon for a long time
and the victims selected We're the best ones
compared with those of other nationalties"
Mr.. Eddy will visit Washington on Of
fciai business and then proceed to his
former home, Chicago. for a visit
The State Department yesterday received
dispatch from the United States legation
at Constantinople regarding Miss Stones
case. 1t was encouraging in character and
while II did not report Miss Stones release
as an assured fact yet the tenor was such
as to lead the officials confidently to be-
lieve that such a happy consummation was
matter of very few hours.
