ing Stakes After a Sharp
Struggle.

drizzling rain fell throughout the after

yesterday and only two favorites got the
money. The William Gerst selling stakes,
at one mile. was the feature, which w. p.
Reardon's Katie Powers captured from
Fore-and-Aft, last years Cumberland
Derby winner, after a sharp struggle. I.
p. Hays's ill-tempered Jordan was third.
after having delayed the start by his vic
ious behavior at the post He was an
equal favorite with Christine A. in the
betting. Tomorrow in the Utopia Hotel
handicap, the Derby winner, Rainland, will
meet Brancas, which was favorite in that
event, but met with an accident. Sum-

BEMENT |NSTRUCTS HIS
CENTRAL LEAGUE STAFF
Pulliam's Interpretation of Balk
Rule Is Not Accepted in
Its Entirety.
ATTENTION TO FOULS
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
EVANSVILLE. Ind. April 26.-The inter-
probation given the balk rule by President
Pulliam, of the National League, will not
be accepted in it's entirety by President
Bement, of the Central League. He says
he will give it a modified construction. and
so notified his umpires to-day when they
met him for final instructions. What con-
stitutes fair and foul ball after going over
fence was also given particular attention.
The umpire is to determine whether the ball
is fair or foul as 1t goes over fence rather
than to render his decision on the point
where it falls. A ball might be carried over
fence fair and the wind might make it
fall foul, hence the decision reached regard
ing this particular rule.
The season opens Thursday afternoon,
and the assignment of the umpires is as fol-
lows: Hart at Evansville, Kane at Terre
Haute. Llewellyn at Dayton and McWal-
ters at Wheeling.

The Indianapolis journal., 1904-04-27

Rain again prevented the game scheduled
for yesterday between Indianapolis and
Milwaukee. President Ruschaupt announced
last night that two games would be played
this afternoon if the weather is clear this
morning. This will be the first double
header of the season and the first time
in the history of the game in this city
when two games were arranged for one
afternoon so early in the season. The first
game will be called at 2 o'clock. AS 1t Is
the first ladies' day of the year there should
be Il record-br breaking crowd in attendance.
The constitution provides for no double
headers during the first series, but an ex-
ception had to be made with Indianapolis
because Sunday ball is not played here.
Under the 1904 schedule of 154 games it will
be necessary 20 play several double-head-
ers during the season.
If the grounds in shape for two
games, Manager Phillips will send VIII
Hams and Ailemang to the box, and IL
only one game is played, it is quite likely
that Williams will do the twirling. Cap
tain Magoon viii be in the game and
Heydon will do the backstop work.
President Grillo went to Cincinnati yes
terday much disappointed because he was
unable to see Milwaukee and Indianapolis
play.
