Philadelphia. they are too silly to repeat
Orth received a telegram from Lynchburg,
his wife was seriously ill, and he left i'm
mediately for that place. Orth will return
to Washington just as soon as his wife,s
condition warrants his leaving her side. His
absence from town doubtless led to the
wild reports about his jumping.
AS to Jack Townsend he was out at the
park this morning taking his usual morn

of the report about his jumping to Phila-

his treatment by Manager Loftus likes the

ington for several years. to come.
Before leaving for Boston last evening
Manager McAleer told The Evening Star
reporter that players contemplating jumping
contracts to the National League should
look up Catcher Kahoe's record with the
older body before taking the step. Kahoe,
McAleer said, played under Magnate Brush
for three years. The first year he caught
112 games in Indianapolis at a salary of
$500. The next year he caught Us games
and received 81 200 for his work and the
third year caught lis games and worked
for 5000. This is. only one record of many
and for this reason Manager McAleer was
confident that there would not be many
players to break their necks getting back
into the National League. AS to Burkett,
Wallace and Heidrick deserving the ST.
Louis colors, Manager McAleer said he was
close enough to all concerned to know their
intentions and it was all folly to think of
their jumping back to the National League.

GRAND CIRCUIT TROTS,
Dan R. Had to Go Eight Heats to
Win

After five days of almost constant rain
the course at Chenille, near Cleveland, was
In remarkably good condition yesterday
afternoon when the delayed Grand Circuit
meeting began. The footing kept improv-
ing with every mile and enabled some of
the dark horses to do unexpected things
This was particularly true of the 200
pace, the most valuable event on the OPEN
Ing card. Fred s. Wedgewood, the New
Yorker. who won his first engagement at
Detroit last week, carried most of the
money at $40 to 800 for the field. Dan R.,
the Hoosier flyer, who gave the big roam
horse such an argument across the lake
last Thursday, was the hope of those who
bet against the favorite, but he did not
get to the post until the fourth heat
Meantime Wedgewood outfooted the party
cleverly enough in the first mile. but in the
second one tired coming home, while Cap
tain Sphinx, slipping through at the rail-
landed with ease in 2.0TA.
The Michigan PAGER repeated the trick In
the third heat in a much slower clip and
seemed to have the race at his mercy. Then
Dan r. woke up and. stealing the pole early
in the mile led the way home without
much opposition.
The next surprise was in the fifth heat
when Winfield Stratton, from Denver, flew
off in front and managed to last long
enough to beat Wedgewood, both horses

Pitcher Earl Moore. about whom the
most positive statements were made to the
effect that he had already signed with the

this morning by an Evening Star reporter
and denied all intention of quitting the
Cleveland club. In fact. Moore said that
his talk with the Philadelphia reporters
yesterday was in the nature of Joke and
that he had no intention of quitting the
Cleveland club. Joss and Mccarthy were
also seen and they only smiled when the
report of their desertion was mentioned.
1t is general gossip that Moore was a

Freezing Bacteria.

From The Journal OF the American Medical Asso-
citation.
Typhoid bacilli, the most dreaded bacteria
of water supplies, are destroyed to the
extent of 90 per cent by a temperature a
little above 80 degrees Fahrenheit. a tenn
perature which water passes through Just
before 1t freezes, and in ice itself some 30
per cent of any typhoid bacilli included

This amounts to a publication of 999 per

The Senators and st. Louis Browns In
duIged in a batting bee yesterday, the visi-
tors obtained the long hits and as a result
won out, the score being to 6. Three home
runs two triples and a double were the
run-makers for the Browns. while lone
ly double by Delehanty was the only narq
hit the Senators had to offset this lombard
ment. The outfield at American League
park is unusually rough and majority of
the Browns long hits should have been
cut off as singles, but lucky bound would
take the ball by Ryan or Lee and roll to the
fence.
On account of the closeness of the score,
the game was crowded with interest from
start to finish and there was but very few
spectators who left the grounds before the
last man was put out.The fielding, as usual,
was brilliant in the extreme, Fred Ely,
Coughlin. Carey and Doyle doing the best
work. while Friel led for the Browns. with

Heavy Hitting by Both Sides.

In the third fireworks were let off by both
teams. the Browns getting the first show
and hanging up three runs. Burkett hit
hot one into center that Ryan set himself
for. hut the ball took sharp bound, went
over his shoulder and brought up against
the fence. When the sphere had been re-
coTered Burkett was home. Hemphill flied
out to Coughlin. but Frlel laced one to the
fence and brought up at third. Anderson
singled into left and Friel scored. double
to right was Wallaces best, and McCor-
mick got base on balls. Padden sent a
long fly to Lee in right. and Anderson
raced home, Wallace taking third. The
bluff throw to second and return was
worked beautifully by Clarke and Doyle,
Wallace being caught on the line and run
down. the entire team joining in the chase.
With the score standing to against the
Senator'S the spectators were in deep
gloom. but were quickly aroused into &C
ton by the stick work of the locals. Doyle
started off by hitting to Wallace, and was
safe, as the latter's throw pulled Anderson
off the bag just as the runner reached first.
De!ehanty followed with double along the
left field foul line, and Coughlins single
into center scored Doyle. A wild pitch by
Harper enabled Delehanty to score and
Coughlin to reach third. Lee followed with
a grounder to Anderson that the latter
gathered in all right. but Coughlins threat
eued movements toward home bothered the
big fellow SO that the batter gained first in
safety, and Scranton Bill Rugged third.
Carey singled into center and Coughlin
scored. This made three runs, with no one
out. and the spectators were on their feet,
yelling like mad Manager McAleer sent
out signals of distress; and Capt. Padden

Browns Forge Ahead.

Friel and Anderson. the former scoring on

In the same inning the Senators again
went 10 the front. scoring their sixth and
last run. Lee opened up with a single into
center. and went to second on a passed ball
Carey sacrificed Lee to third, and Ely's
short fly into right scored him.
In the seventh the score was again tied
by the Browns. Hemphill hitting through
