A hint was dropped last week by one who
is high up in American League politics in
discussing the desertion of McGraw of a
move which would prove still more dis
astrous to the National League than the
invasion of New York. According to this
authority, there are two clubs in the Ma
tionai League which would like to con-
solidate and one of them is also anxious
to get into the American League. 1t is
limited that the American League may find
a place for the team, and if 1t does the
loss of two clubs to the National would
talk of a twelve-club league for some time
to come,

August Belmont Disposed to Sustain
the English Action.

NEW YORK, July 16.-Through authori-
tative sources it is learned that Chairman
August Belmont of the Jockey Club has
taken a decided stand against the reinstate-
ment of Jockey Lester Rein by the West
ern Jockey Club. Reiff was ruled off the
track by the English Jockey Club.
On Saturday John A. Drake of Chicago,
according to report. declared his intention
of presenting Savabie Reir up, at the Flu
turity post. Mr.. Belmont Is reported to
have said that under 90 circumstances will
Rein be permitted to sport silk on a metro
politan track. AS the situation stands, the
Jockey Club finds 1t necessary to decide be-
tween the English Jockey Club and the
governing body in the west AS in the
Sloan case. Mr.. Belmont and his associates
will. 1t is said. support the constituted turf

BRIGHTON RACES.
Old England, Highlander and Leonid
Heads Apart in Seagate Stake.

When rain began to fall at the Brighton
track yesterday at 2 o'clock the veteran
turfman, G. B. Norris instructed his as
sistant to scratch Homestead from the
Seagate stakes which up to that moment
seemed almost sure thing for that colt
but the greasy track caused by the rainfall
made it certainty that no matter what
other colt might be able to win it, Home
stead could not. To make Mr.. Morris pain
all the more acute, Thomas G. Healey an
nounced that he would start Mr. r. T. Will
son. jr.'s. colt Highlander, to carry 119
pounds. Now know can't win it, said
the veteran turfman.
But once more luck was in his favor for
the soft going enabled Old England to stay
the full distance Of nine furlongs and

from Highlander. 1t was enough, and a
stake worth 81, 1885 was added to the &C.
count Of the Missouri turfman. who has
successfully campaigned horses all over
the country.
Another surprise in the Seagate stake
was the narrow shave which both Old Eng
land and Highlander had from defeat at
the heels of Leonid, who only two weeks
ago was one of those sold at auction by
yearlings. John Boden and Billy Barrick
were the contending bidders for the colt,
but eventually Barriek got him for So, 4uJ,

the pair and only head behind them.

to have lasted long enough to win the two

adjudged to have got up ia time. It was a
slow race. P. Ryan was forced to take
even money about his filly. Obia. In the

the western mare seemed about to over

Tragic End of Base Ball Game at Can.
Melton Ind

CHAMELEON, Ind, July 16-During a
ball game here yesterday Arthur Derrett,
umpire, shot and fatally wounded William
Whallen, the pitcher.
The game was played between the Owens
boro' and Cannelton teams In the last
inning Whallen was at the bat and took
exception to ruling made by Derrett.
After several words had passed the quar-
rel ceased Whallen hit fly and started
to first base, when, it Is alleged. Derrett
pulled his pistol and shot him twice in the
back.
The crowd gathered about Derrett, and
there were cries Of Lynch him"
The town marshal swore in several depu-
ties. and soon Derrett was locked up in the
Cannelton jail. He is about twenty six
