called Shaw up. and the latter admitted
that Delhi had swerved and had also

inasmuch as there has been fouling in

declared that, barring Sysonby, who will
go in the Withers stakes tomorrow, he
would not start another horse at Belmont

about the matter later he said that he had
no fault to find with the decision and that
his horses would fill all of their engage

Metropolitan Baptists outplayed First
Congregationals

The northeast grounds of the Church
League was the scene of the first post
poned game Of the present season. The
Metropolitan Baptist and First Congrega-
tional were the opposing teams, the for
mer winning in easy fashion, the score be-
ing 13 to 4. c. Richardson, who
the rubber for the Nets, had something
attached to his benders which made the
Congregational boys plug holes in the air
instead of hitting the sphere. He retired
no less than sixteen batsmen on strikes,
this being the record so far in either sec
ton of the league. The Nets were first
at bat, and started off in whirlWind fash
ion, making two runs on many hits
They continued to score, making two more
in the second. three in the third and cinch-
ing the game in the fourth. when they
piled up four runs. The best the Congre-
gational boys could do was to get two
pairs in as many innings. namely, the
second and seventh Rowley, who pitched
for the Congregational team made his de-
but as a pitcher. and from the showing he
will. with little coaching, become good,
consistent pitcher. A One-hand catch by
Crane in left garden was easily the fielding
feature of the game. second honors going

With the exception of the first inning,

scattered hits. Bailey started in to pitch
for the Record team but was batted freely

up but fast double play by Heinold and

good for two bases. and three runs came
in. This ended the scoring for Record. and
on account of darkness the game was called

Whenever J. Grady, Hunt or Lycette came
to the plate the Franklin fielders moved
back far as the field would permit and
dolefully watched the balls gracefully sail
over the right-field fence while the batters
completed the circuit. Never has a fence
looked better to the Giants; never did those
chaps hit so well.

Victory for Lafayette A. c.

The Lafayette Athletic Club defeated the
Treasury team yesterday by to 3. at
American League Park. The game was ex-
citing and interesting. Jackson was the
slab artist. With one or two men on bases
he would retire the batter on strikes.
Proctor pitched good ball for Treasury
but in the seventh inning weakened. The
Lafayettes took advantage of this and
punched hits. securing enough scores to

letics, will take place tomorrow afternoon
on Georgetown field. The cadets of the
United States revenue cutter service, from
the United States practice ship Chase, sta
toned at Arundel Cove. South Baltimore
will journey to Georgetown to play base
ball with the reserves.
Since Capt. w. E. Reynolds has taken
charge of the training quarters there has
been great trend toward putting This
service on equal footing with West Point
and Annapolis. He has equipped the quar-
tiers with gymnasium and provided a
base ball team for the cadets. The team
was late in forming this year and therefore
but five or six games were played. Next
year, however, Capt. Reynolds expects to
play the West Pointers and the Middies
and all the standard teams of the east.
