has worked but little and had not the COM
mand that makes his delivery so effective.
This was seen in the second inning, when
he struckoMonte Cross and passed Hartsel
to first on balls. Manag er-Captain Kit
tredge fully expected to pitch AL Orth, and
only substituted Wilson after it was found
that Albert Edward was suffering from
bad attack of malaria and was not in con-
dtion to go out of the hotel.
Fielded Very Well.
In the field the Senators put up a spleu-
did game. everybody working with a hearty
good WILL the work of Stahl at first being
watched with the greatest interest. The
big fellow handled himself nicely. making
one splendid catch of a foul fly that almost
carried him into the grand stand, and at
another time demonstrated his nerve when
he shouldered Pickering in the rush for the
bag Jake is absolutely fearless, and when
he once masters his new job he will be as
good as the best. At the bat he did moth
ing, but Plank didn't like his looks and
passed him up twice with soakers. The
two new men, Thoney and Hoffmen, fielded
their positions in good style, the former at
the bat getting two safe ones. Moran and
Mccormick also worked nicely together.
Captain Kittredge worked like beaver be-
hind the bat. and his one throw to second
catching Monte Cross after the latter had
a fifteen-foot start, demonstrated that his
throwing arm is still one of the greatest in
, the business.
When it came to batting the Senators
were up against a strong proposition. as
they had not faced swift pitching before,
and Plank was sending them over the plate
with the speed of the wind. Take the Sena-
tors as whole. their showing was far
above the average, and they will yet DEM
onstrate that they are far from an easy
proposition for any team.
In the first inning the Athletics went out
in quick regulation order. but the Senators
appeared to be in for good start Moran
got off with a base on balls and Coughlin's
single to eft sent him to third. Scranton

Crowd Assembled Early.
Preceding the game the members Of both
the Washington and the Philadelphia teams
in carriages paraded through the streets
OF the city. headed by band playing stir
ring airs. The crowd began arriving at the
grounds even before the players. and as
the hour for the opening of the game APP
preached there was great hush of fans.

the time. The line of spectators stretched
from the entrance gate all the way back TO
7th street and the line seemed continuous.
for as those in front gained admission
through the gates others Joined the waiting
crowd In the rear. upon the arrival OF every
car.
The scenes within the park were inspir-
ing to the players. Notwithstanding the
GOODNESS of the atmosphere large number
of ladies occupied seats In the grand stand
and boxes and their bright costumes ano
gaily trimmed bonnets added a dash of
color to the scene. In the tumult raised by
the band, the rooters with the tin horns
and the cheers of the fans, the cry of the
peanut and pop corn BOY ana tne ginger ,s
ale man were heard at frequent Intervals.
The Senators new white uniforms with
red belts and stockings appeared in pleas
ing contrast to the green OF the diamond
and added to the attractiveness OF the
scene
AS to the game itself. the Athletics were
playing in luck to win. Had Thoney. in the
second inning held tight to the line fly that
struck his hands shoe-top high, different
story would have been told as a double play
would have resulted and the side retired
without a run, instead Of hanging UP five.
The catch would have been remarkable
one, but still the ball sticks sometimes,
but yesterday was not the day. The Sena-
tors went into the game defeated before the
first ball was pitched. as they were all out
of shape, having only very meager practice,
while the Athletics have been playing con-
tinuously for the past three weeks. wilson

AGGRESSIVE YOUNG GREEKS.
Are Fined For Hair Pulling Match
One of The Steiner Sex
Is The Victim.

The assault case of Gus Cardes, for
which he charges the two Greek girls
clerks in the confectionery store OF
Z. COnits, corner Main and Francis
streets. with having assaulted him,
was heard yesterday afternoon before
Justice Charles q. Feldmeyer.
From the fact that the pretty little
Greek girls put a stalwart Greek man
TO flight and gave him good drub.
bing aud hair-pulling few evenings
ago. large crowd of spectators gath
cred at the magistrates office during
the trial, which. owing TO the testi.
mony of the parties having To be in.
terpreted, took over two hours TO hear
the case. From the testimony of the
two girls, Stamata and Mary Conits.
the principal witnesses in the case,
Cardes had spoken to them in an in
sulting imanner ON several occasions
and they informed their mother, who
encouraged the girls to resist il, which
they were determined 10 do the next
time they saw him.
On Tuesday evening last, about 9
O'Clock, as Cardes was returning from
the Tolchester excursion, and as he
passed the store of Conits ON Main
street, the two girls pounced upon
him and We're handling him without
gloves, when some parties interfered
and separated the pugilistic girls.
The mother, it appears, who was a
witness TO the pounding, encouraged
the girls TO teach the offender lesson.
Cardes had warrant sworn out before
Justice Feldmeyer, charging the girls
with assanlting him. Mr.. p. Conits,
"A brother of the girls, acted as inter
prefer, whom Cardes accused several
times during the trial of not interpret
ing the evidence as given, but instead,
telling it in his own language. The
trouble grew out of a love affair from
the beginning.
Cardes, it appears, was infatuated
with one of the young ladies and been
paying her attentions, but her brother
and mother were opposed to him, and
had forbidden him coming to the house,
and for his persistance, Cardes was set
upon by her brother and a young
Greek from Baltimore a few nights
ago and badly beaten. This attack is
an outcome of the former. Squire
Feldmeyer, in giving his decision,
said 1T was very unpleasant duty for
him to impose fine upon young la
dies, but in this case, he said from
the evidence they were the aggres-
sors, and he would put the lightest
penalty upon them the law allowed,
81 and costs, amounting to 50. IS each.
He further stated that it was to
teach them that they could not take
the law in their own hands and dis
turb the public peace. but if they had
beeu insuited they should have Com
planted to the police and had the
offender arrested. Mrs. Conits and
Cardes were dismissed Mr. Hugh
II. Riley appeared for Cardes and
Daniel X. Randall for the Conits girls.

Houses Needed

Strangers who arrive here to work
ON the new Naval Academy buildings
are put to great disadvantage i'll Sc
curing accommodations. Many of the
men have families and can neither Sc
cure board or lodgings. There are nc
houses for rent and the situation is
already serious. A house to be vacated
is rented month or more in advance
and the landlord is often drawing two
rents that the anxious waiting tenant
may be accommodated with a ROOT
over his head. Some of the laborers
coming here to work and being
strangers are refused board, unless
they pay a week in advance. This
they frequently cannot do, but some
understanding ought to be made that
they can be supplied with accommoda-
tions and they should not be classified
as tramps
