REFEREE IS AGREED UPON.

GOLDFIELD, New, Aug. 2S.-Up-
on assurance that the club would
make 1t certain that George Siler
would be absolutely an impartial ref
cree in the forthcoming fight, Joe
Cans and his manager have agreed
to accept the Chicago man as ref
cree. Up. to yesterday they stood out
fatty against him, and said there
would be no fight unless another ref
cree was chosen. They based their
objection on Siler's friendship for
Nelson. There have been numerous
conferences, and the club finally
guaranteed fair play. 1t is likely the
fight will not start until 4 O'Clock, as
the articles say the men shall weigh
in at 3 O'Clock and also fight at 3
o'clock. Cans has hit upon this quib-
BILE and demands a later hour for the
fight.

Labor Day, Maybe.

Manager Albert II. Bran, of the
National baseball club, of this city,
is completing the plans for next Sun

game will commence at $3.50 O'Clock.
Mr.. Bran is in communication

be a good attraction. The Railway
grounds are directly accessible by
trolley and there is a good sized
grand stand. 1t is the intention If
the patronage warrants it, to have
games there on Sundays during Sep
tember and October. The Nationals
are a fast team of local men and
their games will recall the days of a
few years ago when the Marions were
in existence and had mostly local
players.

Great game, that at Metuchen Sat
urday.
Captain Browning will probably
arrange another in a couple of weeks.
Doc. Crowther stole a base Satur-
day at Metuchen.
Pitcher Starkins, of Metuchen, felt
much better after tanning Burchell.
That made him a local hero.
Looks like Pardees for the Factory
League cup this season, although you
can tell.
Pardees and A. S. & r. may play
two games this Saturday, one a post
poned contest of July 81.
Burchell's turn in the box for Bal
timore today. The Orioles lost to the
Shelters yesterday with Adkins pitch
ing.
The Tottenville A. C. will play the
Belford A. c. next Saturday. The
Belfords have frequently met the
Raritans.
Nothing like making excuses. Man
ager O'Reilly, of the Barrett Field
Club, of Port Reading, says his team
lost to the Keystones, of this city,
Sunday, because he had to put sever
al substitutes in the game as his team
didn't all show up. Huh!
Saturdays victorious trip was the
st. Anthonys' last visit to Wood
bridge this season. These fast little
fellows are in fine fettle for their
games Labor Day at Amusement
Park.
Too bad the Raritans couldn't fin
ish the game at Scotch Plains. With
fair umpiring they might have won in
some inning after the twelfth, when
the game broke up.
The Marions are as speedy a bunch
of young ball players as one could
wish to see. Their record this season
speaks for itself.
The Nationals should receive good
support from local fans when they
play their first Sunday game at the
Railway reformatory grounds next
Sunday. Manager Bran is on the
hustle.
The Chesebroughs have a tight
hold on last place in the Industrial
League. 1t is just possible for the
Copper Works to nose the Guggies
out for second place, if the Guggies
lose all and the Copper Works win
all. It's a pretty slight chance.
A pretty three-cornered fight is on
in the Eastern League with Buffalo
in the lead and Jersey City and Balti-
more as the contenders.
Kellogg, the Baltimore amateur,
who covered third for the Orioles last
Saturday, against Toronto, did not
show up at the game Sunday. The
youngster made a fair showing in his
initiatory game, and Manager Jen-
nings intended to give him a further
tryout.
