COULD NOT BEGIN.

Bridgeport, July 1S.-Another one of those frequent showers that have been figuring so prominently this season to the loss of the base ball managers, struck the city yesterday afternoon and prevented the game between New London and Bridge port. In this case the shower was threatening at 3 o'clock, and the sky became overcast. This kept the peo- pie away from the grounds. The rain began to fall at 3:15 and it con- tinued to fall, with more or less se- verity, for the rest of the day, with thunder and lightning accompani- ment at times. The gentle summer rains are growing an abundant crop of double headers.

AFTER CY YOUNG.
New York Won't Get Him, Says Man.
 ager Fred Penney.

Cincinnati, July 1s.-A report that reached here yesterday from St Louis was that the New York Nationals were making strenuous efforts to se- cure Cy Young. the Boston's left handed twirler. The St Louis dis patch was shown to Fred Penney.
 Not a chance in the world" said Penney. We are in the business to build up our team. and not pull 1t down. Under no circumstances would we part with Young. Of course am speaking on my own re- sponsibility. but I am sure the club owners will agree with me. As yet have heard nothing official of the ef- forts of New York to get Cy, but l certainly shall veto any proposition of the kind that comes up."

NOTHING DOING THERE.

Springfield. July 1S.-In Spring field 1t looked like base ball until it was nearly time to start the game, and then there came a deluge that made the ordinary rain storm look like a gentle shower bath. Umpire Terry Rogers announced the post ponement of the game when it was seen that no ball could be played even if the sun came out in full force.
 Considering the fact that the weather had been threatening for some time. big crowd was on hand. The general impression seemed to be strong that the Ponies are heading in the right direction. as is indicated hy the fact that Springfield has taken six out of the last nine games played. Manager 0'Neil shares the impres- sion and says the team looks good to him as it stands now in everything but the pitching stan. and he would like to call a strong man there.

HENRY SAYS
lam INNOCENT"
Adheres To His Claim That he Is
Not The Man Who Assaulted
Mrs. Fred Selby. Next Friday
Day Set For The Execution.

In spite of the damaging testimony
against him ut his trial. and his con
viction of the crime of committing &
criminal assault upon Mrs. Fred Selby
John Henry still declares that he is
innocent.
One of the editors of the MESSENGER
visited him in his cell Wednesday after.
noon. Henry was cheerful and smiling
and greeted his visitor as gladly as il
he had come to bring him good news,
instead of inquiring of him If he was
ready to go to the gallows.
John, said the MESSENGER man,
''you only have about ten days now.
"Yes sir. he replied, but If il is the
Lords will am ready to go. haven't
any i'll will against anybody. ] do not
blame Mrs. Selby. she was mistaken in
the man, sir.
John how do you spend the days
here ?"
II read my bible, sing and pray, and
talk with the Lord. am ready to die.
We must all of us die some time, but |
had rather not die this way"
you say you are innocent, then who
do you think committed the crime?"
''If | knew, sir, would be only toe
glad to tell. would have told that
long ago. All know is that | am in
nocent. but. if it is the Lords will for
me to 90 this way, am ready"
Had you been drinking much the
night you were arrested ?"
mo. sir, had bottle of whiskey
and had only taken two small drinks
from it, beside glass of cider, when
was arrested.
"You were accustomed to drinking,
and that much would not intoxicate
you, would it p
"Oh, no sir, could drink great
deal more than that and never feel it..
Why when was told to come along
with the crowd that came up to me as
stood on the corner, | did not know
what they wanted with me and ! went
along quietly. tell you sir, there is a
big mistake, believe Mrs. Selby was
assaulted, but she is mistaken; il was
not me.
Henry is smart, and will hope to the
last that something will turn up la
save his neck from being stretched.
The evidence was against him. Mrs.
Selby was positive in her identification
of her assailant, and reputable citizens
testified that they saw John Henry GO
ing in the direction of the scene of the
assault short time before it occurred.
Mr.. James Massey was positive that he
saw Henry.
A movement was started some weeks
ago to get up petition to the Cover
nor in Henry's behalf. 1t was started
by his colored friends. who hoped to get
some influential white people to aid, but
the Somerset County affair happened
about that time and Henry's friends
were advised that it was useless To eX-
pect the Governor to interfere in his
behalf. as the people of the State were
wrought up to high pitch against
negro assaults upon white women.
Sheriff Anderson has not yet an
nounced his plans for the execution OF
Henry. The best people Of the county
however, desire us To request the pub
lie to be orderly and respect the wishes
of those who are to carry out the or
ders of the Court next Friday. when
Henry will be- hanged.
