PULLIAM HITS HARD.
Sammy Strang Sung by a Very
 Pointed Letter.

A bit of aftermath of the fiasco at the Polo grounds last Tuesday came to light yesterday in the way of some correspondence between President Pulliam and Sammy Strang. Under date of August 2, Strang wrote to Pulliam telling how, because of the failure of an official umpire to ap- pear to officiate at such game so scheduled, I was designated by Cap tain McGraw of the New York base ball club to officiate as said umpire" !" and later that mo Chicago player having responded to my call to take his position at the bat, thereupon, after waiting five minutes, declared the game forfeited to the New York club, g to o." Says President Pull liam in his reply:
 This high handed action of the New York club was clearly in viola tion of the constitution of the Ma tional league, and thereupon Mir Johnstone rightfully and legally did forfeit same game to Chicago by the score of 8 to O, and so the records stand in the official tabulation of the league race for 1906.
 Your action in appearing upon the ball field, you being possessed of all the facts, was not only high handed defiance of the laws of the National league and organized baseball, but an extremely discourteous act to me as president of the National league l would be strictly within my rights and entirely justified in disciplining you for this impertinence, but pro- pose to look upon your actions with contempt and therefore take no ac- tion save this letter.

Hair Raising Second Game!

That second game had it's incidents and more than the usual share of ex- elements Cy Voorhees, started in to pitch and the hoodoo must have got working immediately. New Lon don scored four runs in that first in ming and all were made in peculiar manner. Curtiss started off with a hit. Keane hit one to Cy and the lat ter hurled it by Captain Harry and Curtiss took third and Keane second. A wild pitch allowed the ball to hit Umpire Curley and Curtiss was told to walk in. A passed ball going through Hughes's hands also hit the umpire, but this time the runner was not allowed to come in, at least not right away. After Sam Kennedy had used his oratory on Eddie Curley for Ia few minutes, however, Keane was told to walk in with another run. Then with the next two out. free pass, two sacker and single fol lowed and two more were in. An other came New London's way in the second on two singles, and two more in the third on two singles and a double and the fumbles of Swander and McCabe. Cyrus was then rele- gated to the club house to disrobe. and, Biq Rogers was called on again to save the day, and save 1t he did, for not another New Londoner crossed the plate. and but five scat tered hits were made in the last six innings. It was great work for Rog- CTS and he certainly deserves every praise.
 Those seven runs looked awful big, but we went after them never theless. One came our way in the second on a hit by pitcher and an error. One more in the third on an error by O'Rourke and a single by Swander which sent McCabe in. Sin gles by Jimmy Walsh, Rice and Rog- CTS In the fourth gave us two more, and we were within three of the Whalers. Then Harry Long held us close and no hits or runs came our way in the next three innings. In the eighth came the fireworks. old reliable Nichols touched up Long for a single and stole second. O'Hagan advanced him a base on an out from short to first Johnny Hughes set the fans wild by driving a ball clear to the fence which put him on third. Jimmy Walsh flew out to left. Cooney Rice drove the spectators de- lirious by driving one to the outfield and beating 1t to third. Everybody then went crazy when Keane dropped Rogers's pop fly and allowed Rice to skip over the plate with the tying run. Neither side scored in the next inning. although Bill Rogers pulled himself out of a bad hole. and then the game was called as 1t was getting pretty dark. The score:
