''BILLEY" MAL0NEY
WRIGGLED IN HOME

One of the queerest plays ever seen on a d1a-
mond came off at a recent game in this city,
says the Chicago Post. Even Harry Chadwick
probably cannot recall similar instance. The
cubs scored a run on a play which put man
out at the plate.
It happened like this: In the seventh inning
Wicker set things going by hitting safely, Sla-
gle drew pass and N1aloney beat out bunt,
filling the bases with no out. Captain
Chance then sauntered to the plate with his
trusty bat, which had already furnished three
hits, and cracked long fly to right. 1t looked
for minute as tho Strang would make the
catch, and so all the base runners were careful
not to get too far from their respective sta
tions.. Fleet-footed Maloney, however, led off
nearly to second, and when the ball got away
from Strang he tore for the plate, hanging close
to Slagle's heels.
Wicker had scored in trot from third, but
while Slagle and Maloney were hiking it from
second Strang had recovered the ball and started
it toward Catcher Roger Bresnahan by way OF
Dahlen. Maloney was within a yard of Slagle
as he battered down from third, while the ball
sailing in from Dahlen. Bresnahan put the
ball on Slagle three seconds before he reached
the pan putting him out, but Maloney gave an
eellike twist which scored his run.
For brief minute everybody was dazed. UNI
pire ODay called Slagle out and held that Nal
loney's run counted, while the New York play
ers crowded around him to protest. Big Dan
Mccain. reached the plate from first In two
strides and walked around the umpire waving
his arms for some time, while Catcher Bresna-
han did war dance he argued that he had
put out both men. O'Day had q pretty clear
idea that Maloney's run was safe. however
which seemed to be well-founded, for the
sprinter was coming in so fast after Slagle
that Bresnahan would have required at least
three hands to put the ball on both runners in
time to get them out.

TWO BIG YACHT
RACES ON TODAY

Rochester, N. Y, Aug. 12.-Al preparations
for the Canada's cup races have been completed
and the first race between the Iroquois and the
Temerairie started at IL o'clock this morning.
The Temerarie came off the ways yesterday
and measured by the judges. The meas
uring of the Iroquois, the American boat, was
completed yesterday and she replaced on
the ways for final polishing.
New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, Aug. 1.-THE first of the series of
three races for the Sir Thomas Upton cup will
be sailed this afternoon. This attraction will
have the center of the stage, none of the
other local clubs have scheduled races. a..
The hopes Of local yachtmen are centered in
the Quien Sabe and the Hoosier. Experts do
not consider the Hoosier having as much
chance Of lifting the coveted cup, and think
that 1t will be up to the Quien Sabe to uphold
the Chicago standard against the Milwaukee
and Detroit clubs.
The Quien Sabe was again measured yester-
day, and the report Of the preceding days meas
urement was verified. She is just inch too
short to carry a five-man crew and will have
to sail in the with a crew of four.
The will be over a triangular course, two
nautical miles to leg, and will be sailed over
twice. Mondays course will be three miles to
the windward or 1eeward and return, and re-
peat. The third race will be sailed over a
rectangular course three miles to a leg.

tooth for him to give directing the play
from beneath the stand. He has had Il long and
honorable career or the diamond and has done
much to put baseball higher plane than
that occupied even dozen years ago. He Will
still act as president of the club, turning over
to new only the direction Of the play
upon the diamond - =
Watkins was one Of the first to take baseball
from the hale ellow-well-met' style of man
agement and put it upon a business basis. He
has always insisted upon clean playing by his
men and result there is less rowdyism lon
the. part of Minneapolis players than is to be

- In the handling of baseball teams the man
ager- encounters vast amount Of detail and
Watkins has mastered this In addition to man
aging the team from the bench. He feels that
he is entitled to rest from the latter work
and that he is unequal to the stDin. His health
has been bad since last winter and this has
probably FASTENED his decision to retire from
the active direction Of the club while it is on
the diamond.
