THE DIAMOND.
|HOLYOKE | BREAKS 100000
Bridgeport Succumbed to the Reuben's Delivery
 Springfield and Joe Con-
 nor Suffer Defeat.

Bridgeport, May 26.-The summer heat of yesterday steeped the Orators
 n inertia and made them easy vic tims of the Paper Weights at New held park. Holyoke won by the small margin of to 1, and did not do very much or brilliant work to earn their first victory after a series of seven de- Heats. Holyoke won on account of poor base running on the part of the OratorS. who were mainly glued to their bases. Altogether it was a col Orless game.
 The first offender was Clark in the last half of the first inning. Through Batch's error he reached first base Foster sacrificed him to second. When Yale came to the bat Clark was stand ing on third bag. Yale bore the ball into right on a long hit and it dropped Nih Sporings hand. Everybody looked #o see Clark cross the home plate be- 2fDre the ball was returned, but to their great surprise Clark didn't. He stood as inactive as the Russian fleet ! at Vladivostok. He could have made the circuit by 30 minutes. That in activity lost run.
 Manager O'Rourke was another of afender in this particular After ! 8O'Rourke had been presented pass in the sixth, Ladd made sacrifice on which James should have reached third, and would if he had had his eye bn the ball. Odell followe dwith Init that should have landed O'Rourke Son third. Finally he died at third on D4wney's hit.
 lHolyoke won the game in the second Sinfning. "Rube'' Vickers made a hit md got second on Downey's error and seored on Fitzpatlick's hit. He stole S3econd and scored on Skaters hit. That ended their run getting.
 M The only run scored by the Orators Awas in the fifth inning. Downey hit safely and stole second, for stealing 5second was the order of the day, and was sent home by Clerks hit. The score:

At Hartford.

Hartford, May 26.-Over 1,200 ex- eeited fans worked themselves up until they had several kinds of emotions at sthe ball game yesterday afternoon. fThey were blue when Worcester scored two runs at the first crack out of the box, they were in better humor when Hartford made run iii the same in ming, they were feeling fine when an |other tally was rung up in the fifth land they were absolutely hilarious 'when the score was tied in the eighth 'There were fits of depression after the eighth, owing to a lack of headwork lon the part of the home team. And |while the excitable fans were Joyful |or solemn as the game progressed |they had no use for Durnbaugh at any stage of the game.
 Each team profited by Durnbaugh's poor decisions yesterday and while he |was bad on balls and strikes and reck- |less in his base decisions they prac- |tically balanced each other.
 The last few innings were played lin the rain and after Worcester had had its raps in the eleventh Durn- |baugh called the game on account of |the rain. Worcester scored run in |the eleventh, but it did not count. The score:

AMERICA AND THE
 BENNETT CUP RACE

1t seems rather unfortunate that the prospect for America being we'll repre- scented in the James Gordon Bennett international cup race, to be held in Germany next month, is not brlgnI. The manufacturers are very much worked up over the thing, and it is to be hoped that the Automobile club Of America will give careful considera- tion to their claims before definitely cancelling this country's entry. The club and the makers, of course, regard the matter from opposite view points. The former looks at the race as purely a racing proposition, and takes the ground that We ought to have rea- sonable expectation of victory, or de- cline to compete at all. It's members seem to think that America's great reputation, as country of progress, would be seriously impaired if Win ton, Christie, a Perless or some of our other leading makes were to be last, or nearly last, in this most impor- tant of automobile contests Moreover, majority of American lovers of the sport freely declare that the cars made by our manufacturers in nowise com- pare with those turned out i'll Ger many and France, at least The charge has been made that the average Liner ican manufacturer uses cheap material that the workmanship on his products is not first class. and that in a supreme test, such as the Bonnet cup race, the average hastily constructed Yankee car has no chance and has no real rignt to compete in such company.
 The American manufacturers freely admit that the high-priced European touring cars are superior to ours, and attribute the fact to the superior roads and general conditions for testing ma chimes that prevail in England and are not to be had here. Percy Owen who drove a car in the race held i7 Ireland year ago, Christie and on9 Or two other ambitious would-be com- petitors in the 1904 event, claim that it is to attain this very perfection that they wish to take part in the long races abroad. They also say that man. ufacturers are to pay the entire cost of transporting the cars and all other ex-. penses. and they fail to see why they should not be allowed to do their best, even though their chances for finishing last are probably 100 to 1 better than for first or second position. America cannot expect to be first in everything all the time. and 1t Is good sportsman ship to play the game when you enter, even though you know the odds are all against you. take defeat like man, and try harder the next time. The eagerness of the American manufactur- CTS to start their cars even though they know 1t is morally certain they are going to show up badly by comparison is pretty good evidence of a sincere desire to work Improvement in their cars. and the automobile club of Amer ica ought to give them all legitimate oiI aosy ca A in quality of our automobiles, nor are we second or third. but we have as much right to be first in the fair field of en- deavor as France. Germany Italy or England. and let us get there if we can.-Illustrated Sporting News.

 Tn the Worcester club house after the game Durnbaugh admitted that he was wrong in the decision that Bone was out at first That was the decision that took away a good chance to win from Meriden and caused the mix.up with Kennedy.
 Hugh Duffy was engaged to manage the Philadelphia team. but finding it impossible to win games with his regu. lar players -e has taken a hand him. self Duffy might work to better ad- vantage by looking up few good men from the minors.

THEY FAVOR COOKE

George Considine has high opinion of "Jewey'' Cooke. the English cham pion, who is to meet Joe Cans at Baltt more on Friday night.

Charley Mitchell is another admirer of Cooke. and he believes that the Englishman will have none tLe worst of if at the weights.

Salt Lake City, May 26.-Otto Sic Ioff of Chicago was knocked out by Jerry Mccarthy of this city Tuesday night in ten rounds.
 Sieloff went down five times in the ninth, and was all but out at the gong. He came up for the tenth too weak to protect himself, took nine count twice and the third time down was out for twenty minutes.
 McCarthy's effective blows were nearly all to the neck and back of the head. Both men fought fercely from the bell, each too anxious for a knock out to save his strength.
 Sieloff was groggy at the close of the third, but came back strong.

MILWAUKEE STILL soUEALING

Milwaukee, Wis. May 26.-Although every sporting writer in Milwaukee approves the decision last Friday night by which Benny Yanger was de- clared the victor over Charles Weary of Milwaukee, the surprising charge is made here that the fight was fixed for Yanger to win. but that Neary was ig- norant of the plot. All of Neary's friends and packers support the sory, but the unprejudiced sporting men say that Yanger was fairly the victor.
 The charge made says that the Chi cago man had tee referee fixed, and cite as evidence. of the fact that he had carriage in waiting for him in case he was mobbed after the decision, as he was, to the shame of the town.

 WAS FOUGHT
Jack O'Brien and George Cole Went Six Rounds Cole Was Hammered Hard--Other NuteS.

Philadelphia, May 26.-Jack O'Brien won last night by mile in six round contest with George Cole. the colored middleWeight, before the Ma tional Athletic club. The men fought at special boxing show in aid of the free ice fund, and good crowd was attracted to the arena, because Cole s recent performances here led many to believe that he would take O'Brien's measure. The bout proved the Phil adelphia fight fans to have been prac- tically out of their senses on this game up.
 While Cole put up a game fight and tried hard, he was outclassed in every round, and the bell just saved him from being knocked out in the sixth.
 The first round was full of action. O'Brien was aggressive and went to his man, who fought back and coun- tered heavily in clinches. O'Brien's Judgment on distance was good and after minutes fighting he had Cole measured and had little difficulty in landing both rights and lefts. He was all over Cole as the bell sounded.
 In the second O'Brien got into ac tion and worked left jab to perfec- ton. With a left to the heart and another to the mouth he staggered Cole. O'Brien was lightning and the colored man failed to reach him with his leads. A left to the jaw nearly dropped Cole to his knees. Cole landed his hardest blow near the end of the round 1t was right to tho body and made O'Brien vince.
 O'Brien started his usual jabbing tactics in the third and bothered Cole. Jack played for the stomach and cas- lily avoided Coles leads. O'Brien put force to his blows and got home with effect to Coles stomach and ribs. The colored man was in distress and held on in clinches at the bell
 The fourth round opened with Cole surprising the crowd by taking the of fensive. He rushed O'Brien and with hard rights to the body and jaw stag gered him. Jack cut Coles eye with a left hook. but the colored boy was game and came back. It was Coles best round.
 , The fifth was all O'Brien's. He wal loped Coles damaged eye. Cole rushed O'Brien, who met the rush with a right to the heart, sending the negro down for the count of six. After that Cole was carefully on the defensive with O'Brien continually after him.
 The sound of the gong was welcomed by Cole in the sixth and last round. eager for a knockout, rushed his man throughout. Jack rained rights and lefts to the body and face of his antagonist. He nearly closed the colored boys left eye with a right and sent him to his knees with anoth- CT. Cole was staggering blindly when the bell sounded.

 CAPTAIN FITZPATRICK HOME.
 Frank Fitzpatrick, manager and cap- tain of the Holyoke base ball team, spent last night at his home on Bank street. The Holyoke team played in Bridgeport yesterday, ill New Haven to-day and tomorrow will play i'll Mer- 1den.a The popular manager of the Massachusetts team was feeling rather happy this morning when seen by Democrat reporter "We succeeded in breaking the hoedoo which has been pursuing us steadily of late by defeat ing Bridgeport yesterday. From now on the other teams will have to look out for us. It IS about time that we struck our gait and when we do something will. fall. We have been having a lit tie hard luck. Several of our players have been on the sick list. We have missed Rossman very much; but we expect to have him in the game inside Of two weeks. He will leave the hos pital about the end of the week. Third base is the weakest place in our lineup. Already four or five men have been tried at that position and have been found wanting. We haven't found the right man yet and are will ing to pay neat sum for good man. The pitchers are in fine shape and nave been doing excellent work"
