THE RISING PRICE OF COAL.
Local Dealers Do Not Believe It Will
Go Beyond $7.25 Per Ton.

local coal dealer said today that he
does not believe the price of coal will go
beyond 1925 per ton. the price that pre-
vailed last winter. This statement was
made In response to an inquiry as to the
rise in the price of the commodity and the
reasons for the advance. 1t was stated
that regular customers Of the dealers were
able to secure their supply Of fuel early in
the spring at the rate of $3.50 per ton. At
that time the coal dealers said the price
of coal would rise at the rate of ten cents
per month until September.
In accordance with this statement coal
has since advanced at the rate of 10 cents
per ton. and now the person who paid So so
for his fuel in March Is required to pay
$3.50 for the same grades.
Several local dealers were interviewed to-
day regarding the advance. and all stated
that the raise was to meet the advance of 10
cents exacted by the wholesalers. They al
legged that the wholesale dealers would give
no reason for the increase. The supply of
coal In Washington is about sufficient to
meet the needs of the city, although the
dealers claim that they are getting coal
very slowly.
10 cents on every months orders and II
the shippers fail to send them coal ordered
in May at the price fixed for that month
during the month of May they are required
to cancel their May orders and file new or
derS for coal at June prices. The local re-
tailers state that they are treating the pub
lie as fairly as they can under the circum-
stances, and that any one who so desires
is at liberty to investigate the matter.

TIED FOR THE LEAD.
Gunton Defeats Wesley in an Interest
ing Game.

Temple Baptist was allowed to revel in
undisputed possession of first place in the
Chuch Base Ball League for one lonesome
day. and Gunton by it's defeat of Wesley
yesterday afternoon. now shares that honor
with the sphere-chasers from Temple.
The large attendance of the preceding day
at the grounds on Columbia road between
18th and 18th streets was almost duplicated
and enthusiasm was unbounded. The ma
jcrity of the roOterS in the grand stand
were of the fair sex and whether it was
the pretty white and red uniforms of Wes-
ley, because the pretty fans were of the
Methodist faith on account of the team s
lowly position in the race for the cup their
sympathy and roofing capacity seemed to
be all for the losers.
1t was interesting game, snappily
played. and Umpire Bars fine work con-
tributed as usual largely to the pleasure of
players and spectators. Seay pitched
good game for Gunton striking out s, and
his delivery was we'll handled.
Wesley started off if determined to
break it's string of defeats. two runs Of Inc
red and white variety being landed in the
first inning, on pass to o. Birckhead.

flee by Love.
Gunton tailed one lone run in the third.
but Wesley having put Methodist over
the rubber in the fourth. the Grays got
busy with their sticks in their half. Wat
son driving a corker to right for three
sacks. Asquith going to the initial bag on
fielderS choice. the throw to the plate fail
ing to catch feet-footed Watson. Claxton
lined out a hot one to left for two bags,
bringing in Asquith. who had purloined sec
ond. and H Seay sacrificed and Claxton
sprinted home. making Gunton one TO the
good.
Wesley struggled manfully to overcome
the lead. but Pitcher Seay was in fine form
and. with good support at critical stages,
doomed the red stockings to their fourth
consecutive defeat.
The game was generally good exhibition
of fielding by both teams, most of the err
rors being made hard chances. G.
Crompton brought the crowd to it's feet by
a marvellous one-hand backward running
catch in the first inning. robbing Harvey
cutter of an apparently safe hit. LeMat in
center played a star game. accepting sew
eral hard chances and participating in =
pretty double play In the sixth inning. The
batting of Harveycutter and Daniels was
largely responsible for Gunton's victory.

BAN LIFTED.
Lajoie and Bernhard Will Be Allowed
to Play in Quaker City.

Napoleon Lajoie. the leader of the Cleve-
land base bail team. and his team mate
Bernhard. will be permitted to play base
ball in Philadelphia. The contempt pro-
ceedings begun against Lajoie and Bern
hard last year will be dismissed and the
players will be restored to their old stand
ing in Philadelphia.
No official announcement has yet been
made in the case. but the news that the
mer will be permitted to play at Philadel-
phia comes from most reliable source.
1t Is to the effect that their first reappear-
ance at Philadelphia will be week from
today. when Cleveland lines up against the
Athletics for the first game of their east
series.
President Johnson declines to discuss the
case. which he is compelled to do by rea-
son of the fact that the first official state
ment must come from the Philadelphia
courts. That Lajoie and Bernard are to
play in Phila delphia there is, however, no
doubt. The lifting of the contempt pro-
ceedings is another result of the peace re-
lations established between the American
and National Leagues.
The new owners of the Philadelphia Club.
together with August Herman, the new
leader of the National League, were rer
fectly willing to drop the contempt cases
and make base ball peace an established
fact in every particular.

Base Ball Notes.

The Senators go against the st. Louis
Browns today.
Case Patten will do the pitching for the
locals.
Nine hits for the Washingtons yesterday
show that the batters are slowly round
ing to.
When an umpire makes as palpable
mistake as Sheridan did yesterday on Muir
phys muff he should have the nerve to re-
verse his decision.
AL. Selbach has been appointed captain
of the Senators and he started a merry
pace for his comrades to follow yesterday.
leader has been needed for some time
That boy Hoffman needs only the expert
ence that comes with time to make him a
star. In yesterdays game he looked like
wonder. Manager Mack said he looked
just as good last season, and he paid $500
for him.
The morning practice Is beginning to tell
on the boys, more hits being made yester-
day than In whole week previously. II
the Senators once strike their true batting
gait there will be nothing to it.
Catcher Bill Clarke has badly bruised
little finger. but the way he played yester-
day demonstrates that the injury has to be
a formidable one to handicap the popular
receiver.
Delaware Jack Townsend has promised to
go to bed early tonight and do without eat
ing tomorrow, so as to win his game
last walked up and is taking an interest In
things
Jimmy Ryan did his usual fine days work
yesterday In center. and 1t Is a pity he
didn't stop Robinson in his wild career and
cut Off that suspicious double. Ryan would
have made an easy catch of IT, but Robby
was under fun sail and 1t was thought bet
ter to let him alone.
Just hold fast and don't give up hope. The
season has only started, four months OF
play yet remaining, and the hot sun of July
and August will do wonders for the Sena-
tors. They are bound to come.
Heidrick, Powell and Manager McAleer
have been under the umpires ban for the
past three days. but they can all three re-
sumo their usual positions today. The
Browns have a good chance for the pen
nant, and they have been fighting hard for
games. Since Dick Padden rejoined the
team victories have been quite frequent.
When the season started the Cincinnati
papers harped on the fact that the Reds
had a great outfleld, and that Crawford
would never be missed. Guess Sammy
couldn't be useful at present. with Manager
Kelley securing the minor leagues for field
ers.
Buck Freeman has apparently resumed
the home run habit he acquired in this city
under the Wagners He has already made
nearly as many home runs as he did all last
season. Three homers was his record in
New York in the last three games.
Today all the eastern teams waltz to their
corners and prepare to receive the four
western aggregations. The latter spent all
of yesterday travelling, and the first games
of the series start today 1t looks as though
the west were in for good trouncing

BOYS BASE BALL FUND.
Liberal Contributions to Treat the Poor
Youngsters on the Fourth.

Notwithstanding the fact that the treat
to be given the poor boys Of the city on the
morning of the Fourth of July, when they
are to be taken to see the game between
the Senators and Clevelands. is a month dis
tant. the contributions have been generous
and the probabilities are that there will be
great crowd of the youngsters made hap
Ply. A free car ride to the grounds Is also
down on the program. and If the money
holds out. popcorn and red lemonade will
go with the treat. Now if the Senators
would only pitch in and win few games
the fund would be augmented quickly, but
as it is now some of the Washington fans
are sulking in their tents and refuse to
send any one else out to enjoy the sport
Manager LOTUS however has promised
the fund committee that victories will soon
come the Senators way, and then the en-
thuSiaStic fans will assuredly come to
the front with liberal contributions
