BASE BALL AND LAW.
When the Two Clash the Sport
Always Suffers.

Whenever base ball gets hooked up with
the law of the land. base ball generally gets
the worst of the exchanging and no matter
how the proceedings inaugurated by John
T. Brush to restrain President Puliam from
disciplining Manager McGraw and the play
ers of the New York team may turn out,
the result cannot help being hurtful to the
National League. says Frank Hough in the
Philadelphia Inquirer. Never in the history
of the national game has there been a more
abject confession of incompetence by
body of men to manage their own affairs,
and never before has there been such an
exhibition of grovelng servitude in one
club. The members of the National League
have enacted laws for the government of
the playing of its games. and those laws
necessarily provided for the disciplinng of
players and managers when the occasion
warranted. The power to discipline must
be vested in Someone-in this instance in
Harry G. Pulliam, president of the league.
He is employed to enforce the laws of the
magnates own making. If he misinter
prets these laws, or if he enforces these
laws in such way as to work hardship
any club clubs the very power that
made him can unmake him.
If in the present case Pulliam did use his
high Office to the detriment of the New
York club and to the benefit of the Pitts
burg club, as is practically charged in the
papers for which the request for hearing
to grant an injunction was asked, then it
was a matter for the National League as
a body to take up and investigate. If 1t
was discovered that Pullam had used his
office to further the interests of hts per-
sonal friend Barney Dreyfuss. then he
should be kicked out of professional base
ball as one unfit to be trusted; if, - the
other hand, 1t was found that he had been
living up to the letter of the rules in dis
ciplining the managers and players of the
New York club, then his action should have
been sustained, no matter what the cost.
Under no circumstances should the matter
have been permitted to get into the courts.
The whole thing emphasizes the National
Leagues utter incapacity to conduct its IN
ternal affairs upon the lines of square
craftsmanship, not that its members are
less honest than those of any other org an
izaton but because of their insane beilei
that the success of the New York club Is
absolutely essential for the success or the
entire league. 1t may be admitted that
New York is more important than any
other CITY in the National League circuit.
hut the magnates seem to think that 1t Is
more important than the other seven com
bined In playing up New York the foollsn
masnates have lost sight of their own con-
stituencies and the latter, without any hre-
works or brass band accompaniment haVe
resented the neglect.

AMERICAN LEAGUE GAMES.
Cleveland Beat Chicago in Sixteen
Inning Game.

Long after Dewey and Togo have been
forgotten, the base ball world. even unto
the seventy-seventh generation, will re-
hand-to-hand fight for fifteen innings with
out a decision at Chicago yesterday, then

SPOT caused Isbell to slip and muff an easy
fly, which would have retired the visitors.
enabling Altrock to whitewa-Sh them and
Chicago to win by score OF l to o. But the
excusable muff let in man who had pre-
coded it with hit, and that slip gave the
great crowd of the most sensational
days of it's existence.
The White Sox earned the tally which tied
up the game in the sixth inning; then there
followed the grandest battle that has been
seen any diamond since the memorable
eighteen-inning tie between New York and
the White Sox in 1862.
Altrock performed wonders in pitching
himself out of critical situations. every one
of which threatened to bring a disaster to
the men behind him. He was crippled by
the suspension of Lightning '.Ducky"
Holmes and the injury of Green. Never
once after Isbell's mishap did a player err
until the fatal sixteenth Then it was an
error of head by Dundon which broke
Nicks lion heart and brought defeat.

McGRAW'S INJUNCTION.
Case Comes Up Today in Boston
Court

President Brush of the New York Base
Ball Club said last night in Boston that he
is not losing any sleep over the implied
threat of Barney Dreyfuss to jump the Ma
tional League on account OF the directors
refusal to sustain his charges against Me-
Graw
II have nothing to say" he remarked last
night. about Mr. Dreyfuss jumping the
league: that Is his affair. not mine; but you
will notice he didn't really threaten to take
such action. He only said that one of his
directors had preached the subject
THE only thing in MIR. Dreyfuss' state
ment that interests me is what he says
about the action OF the directors He says
that II he had been a director he would
have decided as they did He said he came
only armed with the truth, and that our
witnesses lied-in other words he would
have been convinced by falsehoods
THE three people whom he names as wit
nesses were not witnesses at ALL He abso-
there is not much for me to say on the sub
iect."
Base ball men in Boston look upon to-
days court proceedings, brought by Nc
Graw. to stop the fine and suspension i'm
posed upon him by Pulliam, as pregnant
with trouble for the National League and
some OF them go so far as to say that its
disruption may be the result But It Is also
said by the wfseacres that in case of a
jump Dreyfuss would fail of admission to
the American League. In any event even
IL Pulliam should lose the suit, there seems
TO be trouble brewing.

POOR PUTTING LOST.
American Woman Should Have Won
English Golf Honors.

A copyrighted special to the New YORK
Herald from London says that the result
Of the final round in the women's golf cham
uionship at Cromer last week shows that
the trophy in that event ought to have gone
to America by the aid of Miss M. Curtis OF
Essex, United States. had she not given
such poor exhibition In putting.
Miss Bertha Thompson. who is now cham
pion. played better game in the penulti-
mate and final stages than she did against
Miss Curtis, but 1t was generally admitted
that the Beverley player had a great deal
Of luck in defeating the American who
must have certainly won the championship
had she been in anything like the form
shown by her in the earlier stages Of the
tournament.
Commenting on the visit of the United
States women and their display, an old
golfer said:
The united strength of the visitors sur
prised me. For the future the United States
will have to be reckoned with in women 8

Without doubt the American invasion of
Cromer has been a good lesson to English
golfers and most satisfactory one to the
Americans.

McAleer.
The showing of the Athletics this season
has added to Manager Mack's reputation as

the secrets of Comics success has been his
handling of young players. He is always

special from Chicago says that it was
given out when 'Ducky" Holmes suddenly
replaced Jimmy Callahan a few days ago
that Carrs back had been hurt sliding bases.
AS he was batting .2S3, and generally COM
field, his misfortune created much SYM
pathy in the "bleachers." And now comes
Comiskey with the announcement that Cal

given the boss more trouble than any other
man on the team
II have been tolerant with Callahan for
the sake of his family said the old Ro-
man, but now 1 am through and Callahan
can never play ball for me again"
This is a shock. Callahan, who is one of
the cleverest all-around ball players In the
business, has been fond of good time for
several years back, but has always been,
exterioriy at least the same cool. pleasant
well-dressed gentleman, and the last man
IN the world who, from appearances would
be accused OF alcoholic diversion.

To every lover of the national game the
following facts will be of interest:
Half a century ago the game OF round
ers" gave a quick eye. well-deveioped
arm. a deep chest and a feet foot to
thousands of youngsters at recess"
III some Of the old yarn balls" made by
mothers and grandmothers had sbeen pre-
served they would be priceless today as
relics. Those balls were "swatted" out
of shape in the twinkling of an eye.
Then a kid cover was sewed over the
yarn ball It was cut in eighths of a
circle. Just as an orange skin is divided
This was promptly Knocked off in the
second inning. but 1t gave a third inning
for the yarn.
Harrison Harwood of Natick was a
lover of the game. He had "swatted''
yarn into cometlike streamers and had
batted kid covers half way across the
lot"
In 1870 he designed a two-piece cover.
1t was like what is now called "toggle"
joint. In other words, there were two
hemispheres of leather. connected by n
narrow isthmus, into which two other
hemispheres fitted snugly This was the
frst step But the construction made 1t a
dead" ball There was no life" in 1t.
Nevertheless. Mr.. HARDWOOD started lit
tie factory in Natick in 1853 This was
the first base ball factory in the United
States.
The women who had made base balls
for sons and grandsons were only too glad
to earn pin money by sewing the covers
on. Today there is hardly family of
half centurys standing in Natick whose
progenitorS were not interested in Mr..
HarwoOdS venture.
And today there are over 100 families
who learned the secret of sewing base
balls from parents and grandparents earn
ing much more than living in homes that
were paid for by base balls.
