.GAL[AUDET WINS CLOSE
CANE FROM ST. JOHNS
MuteS Put Up Fast Game, Aided
by Good Pitching.
EBy a STAFF correspondent.l

ANNAPOLIS, May 16.-The game ON
the ST. Johns College campus was hard
fought, close and interesting from the
outset. and was in doubt until the last
ST. Johns man was retired in the last
half of the final inning. At no time
during the matinee did either team have
much of a lead on the other. Although
the local coiIegians had two runs on
the Mutes in the fourth inning they
were unable to hold the lead because
the silent visitors came to the bat in
the fifth and batted out four runs which
placed them three runs ahead.
1t was a battle between pitchers more
than anything else. The twirlers for
both teams received miserable support.
and they discovered early in the game
that 1t was I'D TO them TO do anything
they wanted done properly. Escrich. of
the Gallaudet team. had seven errors
made behind him and Stick and Wright
son. of ST. Johns. had five miscues to
disgust them.

Of WelL-Knoqun Washington
Sporting Man Writes Ban
to Endeabor to Send George
DaOis to play Here.
He Suggests That DeLehanty
Be Traded for the Fast In
fielder Even IF a Cash
Bonus Had TO Be Added.

A well-known sporting man of this
city, and one who is a close friend of
Ban Johnson, and who has the welfare
OF the Washington team at heart. has
lately indited a long and impassioned
epistle to the American League presi-
dent, wildly depicting the sad plight OF
the local team.
In the course of a conversation last
night with a Times man, he said:
Ordinarily I would not object to having
my name used in connection with this
subject, but under the circumstances I
must ask you to conceal my identity.
Yes, wrote Ban Johnson" he said
"a day or two ago, and 1 think 1 viii
have favorable reply in a few days. I
told him how sadly in need Washing
ton is of an inflelder, and since George
Davis is unengaged, suggested that he
make such an arrangement by which
Comiskey would renounce all claim to
him. even if Lotus would give him
Delehanty, or a cash consideration, in
exchange
Il pointed out to Johnson what close
friends Comiskey and Lotus are and l
feel sure Commy would make such a
deal far more readily with Lotus than
with any one else. I further suggested
that If necessary a cash bonus could
be handed over, sufficient to satisfy any
claim John McGraw might hold out OF
Davis. There Is a way in which the
matter could be arranged, even If Dele
hanty went to the New York Nationals,
and l am sure Davis would be far more
valuable to Washington than Dele
hanty'
Continuing, this enthusiast said, q
also told Johnson the situation in this
city. How the crowds that first as
sembled around The Times bulletin
board have dwindled down TO a hand
full of people, who sneak by, take a
peep at the board, and HE themselves
on their way. l told him the fans are
disguised, and unless something is done
to bolster up the team, no support
would be forthcoming in that direction.
Il am sure Johnson Will ponder long
and deeply over the matter, since know
he is possibly more directly interested
in the Washington team than in any in
the league. with the possible exception
OF New York
You may rest assured new faces will
be seen in Washington with the return
OF the team, and possibly few old ones
will be missing.

Kissed by Spectators.
WHITE SOX WIN, SCORE 43
Wilson Pitches Fine Game-Robinsor

Orth Takes His Place.
Especial to The Washington Tines

CHICAGO, May 16.-Faultless fielding,
coupled with some clever work at the
bat. enabled the White Sox to win the
second game of the series with Wash
fngton this afternoon, after q hard
fought contest.
The score at the finish stood fNsto :
In favor of Chicago, but had it not been
for the poor work of Umpire Hassett,
the White Sox would have found in all
probability, the story of defeat instead
of victory.
Carruthers and Hassett were the off,
cial judges of the game and Hassett was
supposed to give the base decisions. Bis
work was glaringly poor. Although his
poor decisions were all in favor Of Chi
cago, the SPAS men and women who
witnessed the proceedings voiced their
dissatisfaction by kissing and guying
Hassett at every opportunity.
Doubly Handicapped.
Despite the double handicap of poor
umpiring and team crippled by the
absence OF three of its best men. the
Senators put up a game argument and
were not beaten until the last man had
been retired.
Wilson, who did the pitching for the
visitors, was at his best and puzzled
the White Sox from start to finish.
From Chicago viewpoint it was a
good game to see. Tall Mr.. Owen went
on the firing line for the White Sox and
pitched great ball. The young fellow
had plenty of speed, a beautiful curve
ball, and fairly good control His sup
port was simply perfect.
D. Green made spectacular catch of
line drive from Orth's bat in the first
inning, spearing the ball just as it was
within six inches of the right field fence.
Then Danny, while still off his balance
relayed the ball to Isbell, who, in turn
made a clever throw to Owen, who COW
cred first base, and consummated a beau
