TELLS HER HE'LL BE ARRESTED
If HE STAYS IN THE STATE.

the Wound She inflicted Upon Herself.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, July l8.--Mrs. Janet

son River Hospital for the Insane at Pough-
keepsle, who attempted suicide In the River
view Hotel In Milford, last evening, was
reported at the Bridgeport Hospital tonight
az resting conf ortably and In a fair way tc
recover. unless there should develop I'm
locked for symptoms.
Accompanied by Walter Judson OF STRAIT
ford former classmate In Washington
electrical school, Walter Langdon lade
farewell to Mrs Wilson In the hospital
this evening. Langdon told her that he
had received information advising him to
get out OF the State of Connecticut as soon
as possible II he wanted to avoid arrest
1t Is said that this intelligence came from
his father, DR.. Charles Langdon, assistant
superintendent of the Hudson River State
Insane Hospital, from which Mrs. Wilson
escaped and fled with Langdon on July s.
Langdon had his friend Judson corrob-
crate his statement, which Mrs. Wilson
was first inclined TO doubt She accused
Langdon of deserving her in her trouble,
but he succeeded in convincing her that
it was necessary for him to get away. The
true nature Of the charge that he feared
might be made against him is not stated.
The departure of Langdon had a depressing
effect on Mrs. Wilson, who wept and showed
signs of another attack of dependency.
She is now without money or friends, and IL
she RECEIVERS she will probably be taken
back to the insane asylum.
The % caliber bullet which entered the
left side of Mrs. Wilson'S breast, is said by
the physicians to have dropped into the lung
cavity. The statement yesterday that the
bullet had been removed was an error
The physicians probed for it and decided to
give it up for the night and hold a con-
sultation this morning. This course was
followed, and it was decided to-day not to
make any further effort to extricate the
lead The hospital authorities say that
the bullet might possibly induce some
dangerous symptoms, but probably will not
as the records of such cases are in favor of
the patient.
Ex-Congressman Philip P. Low of New
York, father OF Mrs. Wilson, was notified by
telephone late last night of his daughter g
plight, He did not say that he would visit
her, and up to this writing has not visited

The Trapped Ball.

In my career as a ball player" said
Manager McGraw of the New Yorks,
II have seen the trapped bali trick, as
Mertes worked it recently, performed
perhaps dozen times. The best man
in the business on that trick-although
did Mertes in recent game-was Tom
my Mccarthy, left fielder of the old
Boston Nationals. He had the play
down pat, and on more than one oc-
it.
II recall one game in which Mccarthy
had the opportunity of using the play
twice, and on both occasions he made
double play out OF it, although work
ing it differently Robinson, catcher of
the old Baltimore team, was the victim
on both occasions. The first occasion
for performing the play came up in
the early part of the game. Robbie
was on second and some other player
on first, when little fly was hit to
Mccarthy in left. He came in on it,
and just before it reached his hands
he backed off a step, got the ball on
a short bound, and tossed it to Herman
Long on second, making the double play
just as Mertes and Dahlen did Sunday
Robbie being a victim of the same
character as Schlei.
Later in the game Robbie was on
second again, another runner on first
and only one out. Again the batsman
hit a short fly to left. You don't fool
me this time yelled Robbie, as he
started for third base. However, in
stead of trapping the ball, Mccarthy
caught it on the fly, threw to second,
and again a double play was completed
Those of us who were on the bench al
most rolled off with laughter over Rob
bie's break, but he was as sore as a
man can get"

MAUI IS IN
HARD LUCK
Two Po!oists Are Injured
Practieins for To-
days Game.

The second polo game between Maui
day, commencing at ) p. m.
| The Mauis are playing in the hardest
of hard luck. There is no doubt what
ever about it.
On the top of losing the first game
by the barest possible margin, an ac-
:, cident occurred at practice at Moar,a-
| ,ua yesterday afternoon which resulted
in two of the Maui team being placed
is concerned.
I, Harry and Fred Baldwin met in head
on collision when each was riding at
full tilt and both ponies, Daisy and
were apparently uninjured.
Their riders Jared less luckily, Harry
Baldwin hurting his leg and his brother
bruising his shoulder badly. They were
Hotel, where they were attended by
DR.. Judd.
1t is impossible that either will be
able to play today and Sam Baldwin
and c. C. Krumbhaar will fill their
places. Both are second team men, but
quite capa BILE of taking care of the
positions allotted them.
Walter Dillingham; will be unable to
play on account of his injury, and
George Angus, who finished Satr days
game for him. will fill tie gap.
The outlook is for a hard even game,
which will be stubbornly fought
throughout.
We've had one big chapter of hard
luck but We'll die game-if we have to
die at ALL said Manager Weller yes
terday. And there is no doubt that
they will.
Fred and Frank Baldwin leave for the
Coast by the next boat and Harry
Baldwin and Manager Weller return to
Maui this week.
Buses will run from the end of the
car-hne to the polo ground today and
efforts will be made to have the auto
mobiles to leave the ground before the
other rigs.
There was universal complaint last
Saturday because Sheriff Brown refused
to permit the autos to leave the ground
until the carriages had first taken the
road. thus occasioning great inconveni-
ence to the occupants of the latter.
1t is to be hoped that the motor cars
will be started first today so that they
can be well on their homeward way
ere the slower going vehicles hit the
pike.
Maui's protest over the result of the
first game was considered at a meet
ing of the members of the two teams
the officials and the umpire, held on
Monday, and after hearing the views
of those interested, Upire Carter refus-
ed to change his decision which dis
allowed the last goal made by Maui
and gave the match to Oahu.
