NO CHANCE OF WAR.
President Ban Johnson Laughs at the
Idea Of Hostilities.

This talk of a war Is all nonsense. There
will be no war for the very good reason
that the National League has not the
money to stand It," sud Ban johnson, the
president of the American League, yester-
day, while he watched the game between
the Athletics and Chicago at Columbia Ball
Park.
President Johnson who had run over
from New York. where he has been attend
ing the injunction proceedings to enjoin
Shortstop George Davis from playing with
the Giants, seemed we'll pleased with the
base ball situation. At least he wore
satisfied smile.
1T Is all idle talk the president said.
THE National League can't afford to invite
another quarrel. and particularly the
Brooklyn club, which Is reported to be
anxious for a renewal Of the war. John T.
Brush seems to be the only magnate who
Graves trouble. and find it hard to believe
that his associates will permit themselves
to be drawn into another costly struggle,
merely to accommodate him. HanlOn's
threats do not concern me. Where would
he get the money to do any damage? !

dent Johnson empha ticallY announced that
unless he returns to Chicago.
He Is already en1oined until August 4.
and he will not play with New York all
season. He must stand by his contract or
stay out Of the game, New York can't buy
his release at any price. Even liberal
sum for his release would not persuade CO.
miskey to let him 60 and thus violate the
principle at stake. "a
'Elberfeld will continuessto play with the
New York Americans. do not believe any
further effort will be made to keep him
out"
How about Hoffman?"s.
To-day 1 wired President Hickey of the

tions must Hoffman be allowed to play
with Toledo. We will compel him to return

hitting and fast fielding by both sides.
Busher who did the slab work for the win

times. Mckinney was at the receiving end
and caught Busher in fine style.

BY OVER SIX MINUTES.
Shamrock Third Defeats Shamrock
First Off Sandy Hook.

After forty-mile leeward and windward
race off Sandy Hook lghtship yesterday,
Shamrock III led her trial horse, Shamrock
I. to the finish line by six minutes and
thirty seconds, and won by only fifteen sec
ondS less.
The course was a run under spinnakers
ten miles dead to leeward east southeast
from Sandy Hook lightship to the tug
Cruiser, and beat back to the starting
line twice around. From a nine knot
breeze at the start the wind dropped to
three knots at the finish. but held west
northwest all day.
In the first half of the race the cup seeker
dropped Shamrock 1 at the rate Of fifteen
seconds and more to the mile. but in the
second run off shore to the outer mark the
old boat was the first to catch a new
breeze. which sent her off at a pace that
sliced nearly three minutes of the chal-
lenger's lead. 1t was a clear fluke, which.
as usual, in a run before the wind, favored
the stern boat. Shamrock III had beaten
the other by nearly two minutes in the first
run to leeward, so that the challenger must
have lost about five minutes by the fuke
In all she covered twenty miles of wind
