There was no attempt to play 2 game of professional baseball in Cleye- land yesterday by the Cleveland American league team. The baseball managers decided not to oppose the sheriff's determination to stop any at tempt at a game. President Kilfoyle said that in deference to the court be- fore which the argument for an in- junction was made. and which has not yet rendered a decision, no game would be played.
 Old Bill Clements, who used to do songs and dances at the matinees in the old Eastern league days, is HOW twirling for Springfield. Bill Is said to have developed into a good pitcher and lost some of his faculties as comedy coacher.-Hartford Globe. Any sort of an old pitcher should make that hunch in Hartford look weary, md Clements did it Saturday. Waterbury would have done it too if Hartford did rot have Jack Lawson to help her out.

NEW BICYCLE RECORD.
sFrank Kramer Hangs New Mark Ol
 the Vailsburg Track.

the Yailsburg Track.
 Newark, N. T., May 12.-One of the best cards of the season on any bi- cycle track ill the country was present ed Saturday afternoon at the regular weekly race meet at Vailsburg. Eight thousands persons watched the races and worked themselves up to high pitch of excitement.
 Frank Kramer was the lion of the day, winning two races and smashing one record. Before the first contest ill which he took part it was announced that he and Floyd Mcfarland who have had all sorts of differences and patched them up only to have another falling out, would ''team it.' It was also announced that George Collett and Saxon Williams would ride to- Is ether
 The half mile sspro'' run in the 1 French style4 turned out to be the race of the afternoon. In the first heat of the semi-fnals Collett finished first in 1 I'm, 16s, and MacFarland second. and in the second heat the same relative DO sitions at the finish were taken by Kramer and Owen eKimble, respective. l ly. The time was Inn 16t 1-5s.. Collett won the first heat of the grand semi i finals in I'm, 56 4-5s, and Kramer the second in I'm 35s. The struggle be tween Kramer and Collett in the final heat was beautiful to see. Both men rode like demons, and at the finish Kramer led by less than half wheels length.
 l Another race that furnished excite 1 ment galore was the one mile ''pro'' ir which the magnificent team work of Kramer and Mcfarland accomplished q remarkable result. Starting from scratch they overhauled the field ir the third lap. Kramer sprinted around the last quarted in record time, win l ming the race by half a dozen lengths and reducing the track time for the one mile to I'm, 57 2-5s. The best s'pro' record in competition is I'm, 55s. Henry Chappay of Little Falls wor first laurels in the two amateur events in graceful style W. T. Day of Bos ton, with a handicap of $50 yards, cap tured the lap prize in the five mile amateur.
 Joe Nelson in an exhibition race against time tackled his own one mile motor-paced record of 1 minute 2s seconds, made on Berkeley Oval two years ago. He finished in 1 minute 37 1-5 seconds. There was a strons wind, and he had to keep. shouting tC his pacers to go faster. Near the finisl he swung out from behind the motor and crossed the tape ahead of it.

The Waterbury High school base ball team went to Danbury on Saturday and administered disastrous defeat had everything its own way and fairly smothered its opponent. The score was 19 to 3. The High school team is play ing the Taft school team in Watertown this afternoon.
 The independent team of Bristol, backed financially by the I. M T. A. and B. society, and managed by MT Tracey, who lost the franchise for Bristol in the state league, opened the season in that borough Saturday and was defeated by the Waterbury Con- solidated team IS to 0. As Bristol people said they seemed fast in prac- tice, but were simply outclassed. Dan Cook, the old Yale pitcher, took his turn on the rubber Saturday for the visitors, Lyman, the other pitcher. covering second. Cook struck out IT men, gave three free passes and three hits. This left but little work for the fielders. Madden gathered i'll two hard smashes, while Scully, Bur- gess, Lyman and Mulligan smothered a few sizzlers and the rest of the work was done by Cook and Curtis. At bat, Kane and Camp led, while none of the men had less than two hits apiece. Next Saturday the Con- solidated team will. be the attraction at Willimantic, where they are always popular, and the lineup will be the same.

q
 East and Leaves for the West.
 Prof M. J. Dwyer, who had very successful season in the wrestling line in the east, will return to his home 1n Michigan within a few days. He was in Waterbury yesterday bidding good- bye to the many friends he made in this city and transacting other little business that he had. Talking of the match in Newark Friday evening be- tween Farmer" Burns and Charley Leonhardt, he said that they took ln nearly $1,000. Burns threw Leonhardt twice in fifteen and twelve minutes at catch-as-catch-can and once in eighteen minutes at Graeco- Roman. Leonhardt stood him off for the fourth fall and won the match. Next Friday evening they wrestle again, when Burns agrees to throw Leonhardt five times in one hour at catch-as-catch-can style 0f wrestling. After this match Dwyer will pack his grip, throw in all the money he has made in the East and depart for the west. His principal ob- ject in going west is to get to the cop per country, where within a month they are going to hold the contest for the championship of the world at Cor nish style of wrestling. Dwyer says he is going up against the present champion, Joe Fear, and he believes he will win. He says there Is a barrel of money in it for the winner.

Springfield, May 12.-Springfield won Saturdays game with Hartford, chief ly through the glaring errors of the visitors. Nearly every man on the team had on off day in fielding, and glaring misplays in the first two in- nings settled the result without the shadow of doubt. The weather was cold and raw, which was in part re- sponsible for the wretched playing. Duff went in to pitch and was batted freely throughout the game, every Springfield player except Clements se- curing one or more hits. Score:
