Manager Buckenberger would not take

Famous Watering Place Likely to Loss
Many Wealthy Cottagers.

nouncement that Mrs. Fish has placed her
residence in the market for sale, comes the
report that Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs fS Sc
riously considering giving up Newport as
a place of residence during the summer
and of selling her estate the cliffs
known as Roseciff.
A man in the social set said today that
he had heard Mrs. Oeirichs speak OF tho
subject and thought tHAt she was seri-
ously considering taking this step. He said
that there was strong feeling among the
charge eXorhitant prices, knowing that the
cottagers will pay them. and he said that
it was largely on this account that several
of the cottagers had their provisions sent
from New York. He also said that the city
did not afford the cottagers sufficient po-
lice protection and in view of the fact that
they We're the heavy taxpayers they
thought that they should have some con-
sideration. He intmated that unless some
thing WAS done, in the near future IL would
not be surprising If others OF the cottage
colony would leave Newport.

that Mrs Oelrichs Will not leave Newport

League race yesterday afternoon while
Wesley failed to take advantage Of the
throwing out of its two forfeited games
and annexed it's eleventh defeat throug h
failure to hit the ball often as the Bap-

who are lin the know" that Temple pre-
sented a stronger batting team than any
aggregation it had turned loose with the
stick during the season hut the Reds, in
addition to hammering the ball hard and
often, put up a magnificent game in the
field. Hardings exhibition of how to play
ball behind the bat was disastrous to Wes-
ley. but delight 10 the lovers of quick.

the applause he received in the seventh in

position.
