THE SPORTING NEWS.
THE AMATEURS.
MERRIrlAC SUPPORTERS
 AFTER ALL THE TEAMS
To the Sporting Editor of the Demo

To the Sporting Editor of the Demo-
 crat:
 Just little space for few re- marks from the supporters of the Merrimac ball team. In the first place this isn't a challenge-it's only an expression of the confidence and faith we have ill the team that repre- scented the east end in the City Anna teur league.
 We believe, as the team is now, that it's the finest ball team that ever did represent that part of the city on the diamond, and we also believe that it is capable of defeating any other team in the City league. This statement may seem strange and out of place in the face of the fact that it finished the season no higher than third place in the percentage column and that it lost two consecutive games to the Pastimes the last two Sundays. But, nevertheless, we are willing to stand by what we say and will SUD- port every statement we make with the Hong green" We don't wish to detract from the champions over the bridge or from the crack team in the west end. Nor, by any means, do we wish to reflect on our old friends, the Washington Hills, for that team is composed of as fine q set of ball play CTS as ever. graced Waterbury dia- mond. The Saints and North Ends have good teams, tOo-but we think the Merrimacs can put any one of them to route. We want game next Sunday-want it as badly as do the thousands of people who go to the south end grounds every Sunday to see the sport. We're not exactly par ticular as to what team we play first, but we'd like to begin at the beginning and cross bats with the champions from Brooklyn.
 After we've defeated the Brooklyns nothing would please us better than to have one more chance at bur old ri- vals, the Pastimes. If the B. A. C.. doesn't desire or is afraid of an en- gagement with our club-why, then the Pastines would greatly favor us by giving us chance to retrieve our lost fortunes.
 The Pastimes and Brooklyns were supposed to have made arrangements for game next Sunday, but nothing definite is known as to whether they have or have not come to anYagree- ment yet-at least nothing has ap- peared in the papers this week to that effect.
 Next Sunday game ought to be played. All the baseball followers are looking forward to it and the at tendance is growing larger every Sunday This is ideal weather for the game and we hope that one of the above mentioned teams can see it's way clear to act.
 The, BrookTyns haven't been seen on the diamond for some time back. They are the champions of the City Anna feilr lea g1le; theyw won the cup;1 they have a good team, but we think the Merrimacs are just as good-if not better. All we. ask is a chance to prove 1t.
 Again, MT Editor, I'll mention that this isn't a challenge-it's merely 8 statement of what we think our team can do. We have the confidence be cause we have the men-the players And if any other team thinks other. wise we'd be glad to hear from them So ye champions of three different seasons and ye ball players of the 1 west end, wake up and favor the Merrimacs with a game next Sunday sr A MERRIMAC SUPPORTER.

OLD CHAMPIONS yS. NEW.
They Will Be Seen in Ball Game at
 Polo Grounds Next Week.

Elmira, Sept 30.-Danny Richard son, now successful dry goods mer- chant of this city, but once famous second baseman, is busy these days sharpening the spikes on his old base bal shoes, having the rents in the trousers mended and wiping the dust and dirt from the IN. r." on the shirt. Richardson is going back to the diamond, but it will be for a sim gle appearance. The following letter from Manager McGraw of the New York Nationals tells all about it:
 For the first time since 1889, when you were one of the champs" of that season, the Giants have again won the erag.o The boys of to-day who have won this years pennant have kindly consented to give the employees of the Polo grounds a benefit, and among those now employed are many who rooted for you when the old Giants were on top; and some one has sug- gested that a game between the old and the new champions would be a proper way to wind up the celebra- ton. On October it is proposed that the game between the old and the new champs be played.
 The old players who have been ir- yited to participate, besides yourself, are Buck Ewing, Roger Connor, Jim O'Rourke, Mickey Welcn, Johnny Ward, Tim Keefe, Mike Dorgan, George Gore, Mike Tiernan, Johnny Troy, Frank Hankinson, Arthur Whit ney and last, but not least, old Jim Mutrie. The chances as they look now are that you will be the only ab- sentee if you are not on hand.
 Richardson was member of the New Yorks in 1888 and 1889, in both of which years New York captured the pennant and defeated the victori- ous American association champions. Tn 1888 the play-off was with St Louis and the Giants won, 6 to ?. The fol lowing year Brooklyn went down to defeat, six to three. The last year the team was made up of Buck Ew- ing and Bill Brown, catchers; Tim Keefe, Mickey Welch and Ed Crane pitchers; Roger Connor, first base; Richardson, second base; John Ward short stop; Arthur Whitney, third base; James O'Rourke, left field George Gore, center field and Mike Herman, right field.
 Most of the foregoing old timers have promised to be on hand on Oc tober T. MT Thomas, assistant secre tary of the New York club. has re ceived letters from the players saying that they will come.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-09-30

Pitcher Andy Coakley, formerly of Holy Cross, Holyoke and northern league teams. isn't continuing at the pace he held when he began duty with the Philadelphia Athletics this season.
 Champ Osteen, the young man who led the Connecticut league batsmen. and was sold by Worcester to the New York Americans, had no reserve clause in his contract with Atlanta of the Southern league.
 York, with which team the elusive MT Owens plays, has the league pen nant within reach. The closing game of the season in the Interstate will be to-day and there is-barely chance for the Penn Parks of York to lose.
 The New York Nationals owner, John T. Brush, has been cornered. He says that If Boston wins the American league championship his team will play the American league leaders. He doesn't want to help the rival New York club, financially, by playing any kdind of a series.
 The New York Nationals have equaled the record of Pittsburg, estab- lished in 1902, of winning 103 games in season, but this years schedule calls for more games. Tn order to AequaI the percentage of TAI acquired A PittsbTrg two years ago, it will be
 essary for New York to do some
 lively game getting.

THE PUGILISTS. O'BRIEN HAD
 THE PUNCH
He Puts Out a Heavyweight After Fighting for Two Minutes = Gus Gardner Got a Beating.

Philadelphia. Sept 3O.-Three thous- and followers of the Queensberry sport who saw Philadelphia Jack O'Brien knock out the veteran colored heavyweight in the first round at the Broadway Athletic club last night are willing to swear that the man who started rhe report that O'Brien could not nit Lard was orly teasing.
 Tn a little less than two minutes of the opening number of a six-round se- ancc, Jack anded a terrific right l;ln1er straight eo the colored mans jaw, and Butler went down like d man shot in his tracks.
 The fight had hardly commenced when the Knockout occurred. Butler who has met all the heavyweights of note for the past fifteen years, trained especially for the battle with O'Brien. The latter put his colored foe off time and again, but Butler insisted on meeting, and O'Brien agreed and won in walk.
 When the bell sounded both men facet; tie mark. They were models of perfectly trained pEgilists.
 Butler had weight and height in his favor and was as lively as a colt For the first minute he was big factor in the battle. O'Brien tried to feint him out without success and finally sent a left for Joe'sN jaw.
 The later blocked the blow and sent a hard left swing to the stomach. Al ter clinch they fiddled away and O'Brien Grew a lead from Butler.
 Quick as wink Jack crossed to the jaw and Butler went down for the count. When he got up O'Brien went after him. Again he feinted. and Butler led. Jack again whipped over the right and Butler fell face down ward, completely knocked out.
 He was carried to his corner by his conquerOr.

JOHN L'S TOUGH LUCK.
Glasses a Scrapper Through Plate
 Glass Door and Must Pay for 1t.

St Louis, Sept 3O.-"See, just my tough luck. All my good intentions result in disaster for me. I tried to referee an impromptu bout here last night, and as consequence have to pay for new plate glass door,"
 John l.. Sullivan, ex-champion of the pugilistic ring, still the great John L." pointed to the front door of his saloon at 610 Market street, which was innocent of glass. John l.. tried to see fair play in a fight in his place at 1:3O this morning Daniel Frazier, bartender in buffet at Sixth and Chestnut streets. Garted through the door, taking the glass and the sasl, with him Ill his flight.
 Sullivan first wrenched pistol from John Andrews's hand and a knife from Frazier and then chased them. Andrews started the trouble.

THE DIAMOND.
SEE SAW
 CONTINUES
New York Leads Boston by Four Points-.Old and New Champions to Face Each Other.

Detroit, Sept 30-In the fastest game of the year on these grounds the New Yorks reversed Wednesdays score by shutting out Detroit and in- { tcidentally stepped back into first place In the remarkable pennant race. The achievement is all the more creditable because of the New York 7 players on. the sick list. The latest IS, Pat Dougherty. who has malaria, ana his absence, with that of Keeler, forced Griffith to resort to herolcs and put { Orth in right field. shifting Anderson ' to left. The makeshift worked well at that. for the outfielders retired an even dozen batters
 Jack Powell pitched a splendid game all through and held the locals, safe from start to finish. Whenever chance looked possible (there would be the ever present pop-up fly and the bl1e-clad Highlander perched under It.
 Pllltz starred in all departments of play. Tn the fifth inning Lowe mt what promised to be a triple to deep center. Off like shot FuItz ran with the ball and just got up to 1t in time to make the catch over his shoulder.
 He also contributed two of the runs, as many hits and a sacrifice, which kicked up trouble in the first inning Elberfeld and Anderson practically hit in all the runs that others had started
 The New Yorks did not wait onscer- emony. Detroit sent in young pltch- CT named Raymond, who came here with twenty-one straight victories Ill the Iowa league to his credit. Conroy waited and walked. Then Flltz tried to sacrifice, but the throw was wild and he was safe, while Conroy perched on third. Elberfeld also bunted, but the ball came too slowly to the plate and Conroy registered. Hits by An 1erson and GanzeI did the rest, three in al scoring
 A Hull of one inning, and the visitors started again in the third, when F'ultz smashed out a double for beginner. Elberfeld batted him around and went to second on the return A sacrifice and Anderson's hit sent the short-stop over the pan with the last run.
 Kitson took Raymond's place in the fourth, and there was little doing with the x-Brooklynite, who pitched a stady and clever game.
 we will have a hard time holding on with the team crippled as 1t is," said Manager Griffith, .'but if we get started right in Chicago to-day the rest will not be as hard. Chesbro will do the bulk of the pitching on the road, as he is in the best shape and anxious to win out. .,,z-

GRAND CIRCUIT RACING.
Major DeImar Trial Postponed, Cone
 ditfons Being Unfavorable.


 dittons Being Unfayorable.
 CINCINNATI, O., Sept. 3O.-The largest crowd of the meeting attended the grand circuit racing at Oakley park here. Major Delmar was carded to go against the worlds trotting record of. 2:0214 but did not make the attempt on account of strong wind. The surprise of the day was in the 2:07 class, in which Red Bird, hot favorite, was distanced after winning two heats and finishing 8 close second in another. In the first heat Pauline G. came with rush at the end and won the heat by nose from Red Bird. Red Bird won the second and third heats handily. Tn the fourth heat Red Bird broke at the first quarter, and be- fore Walker could get him going right the entire field had passed him.
 Sphinx took this heat easily, as well as the fifth, Pauline G. being the only contender. Pauline G. and Sphinx, the heat winners, fought it out in the sixth heat, the latter winning by a length
 Sixteen horses started in the 2:17 class trot, which was won by Red Lace in straight heats.
 h the 2:10 class pace Robert Nc, the favorite, was nosed out by John Nc. in the first heat. The other three heats resulted in easy victories for Robert Nc.
 ST. LOUIS, Sept. &C., Gasconne at 2 to 10 was the only winning favorite at Delmar park. Worthington cut across the field from the outside in the fifth race and caused jam at the first turn. The horse finished second, but was dis qualified.
