|ducted, with small jumps, is better by far than berth in the Eastern league.
 York has released Fred Clay, the former Meriden outfielder, who led the American association last season, playing with Louisville, his batting percentage being .372. Boston gave Pitcher Olmstead and $3,000 for him, $1,500 in cash. York induced Clay to stay inthat city rather than go to Boston.
 So Hartford is getting swelled again. For heavens sake, what has she got to be swelled for? Her pres ent outfit hasn't ghost of chance to get into the first division even. When she was in the Eastern league before it was skiddoo for her because of poor attendance. Get a good team for this league and 1t will be better than hitting the pipe so often.
 Sporting Writer Sullivan of the Springfield Union throws it into Tim Murnane, president of the New Eng land league, to-day. Tim has been telling his readers that the New Eng land league is the fastest little league in the country, but Writer Sullivan names dozen or more players who were released from the Connecticut league and who are now stars in the New England. Some of the Manchester magnates were asked last night about the prob ability of Breckinridge going to Hartford and they could not speak with authority. Some Hartford fans who saw West of Rockville pitch Sat urday were anxious that he be en- gagged by Hartford. It was learned last night that Manager Durant of Waterbury was after him and had made him an offer. West is said to have returned to Brockton, but it is not known if he is to pitch there again.
 The great box work which Jack Hess has been doing for the Spring fields this season has caught the at tention of at least three big league clubs. Pittsburg, Washington and the Athletics have him down as a marked man, and already two of the three have put in something akin to an application for his services. Bar ney Dreyfus and Jake Stahl have asked about the prospects of the big pitcher, and each has been assured he has the goods and is always ready to deliver.

SHOP LEAGUE GAMES.
Some of Them May Be Played on the
 State League Diamond.

Stdte League DlamOnu.
 At meeting of the managers of the Shop league last evening it was decided to engage the state league grounds for the 4th and 11th of Au- gust in order to give the people a chance to see the article of ball fur nished by this league. Many are of the opinion that these games are not very fast. but when they once see the hines perform on good diamond they are sure to attend more of them.
 Many of the City league players are to be found in its ranks, and the team which is now leading the leagues the Oakville Co. would give any of the City league teams a hard rub.
 It was decided last night to play the games in the future at the Driv- ing park and the Oakville grounds The schedule for next Saturday is as follows: Driving park, American Ring vs Smith & Griggs at o'clock: Oakville Co vs Waterbury Button Go at o'clock; Oakville, Novelty fac tory vs Waterbury Buckle Go. at 2 o'clock; Waterbury Brass Goods vs New England Watch Go. at 4 o'clock.
 The Waterbury Button nine will make big effort to defeat the Oak vile team next Saturday. The latter nine has yet to be defeated. @

PITCHER COAKLEY MARRIED.
Romance of the Young Holy Gross Graduate and His Bride.

Philadelphia, July 1S.-A pretty romance which had its inception in this city one year ago came to a hap py conclusion yesterday, when Miss Hattie M. Gray, one of New York's fairest athletic girls, became the bride of Andrew J. Coakley of the Philadelphia Americans.
 The brief romance of Miss Gray and the pitcher of the white ele- plants" reads like chapter in a stirring love novel. Coakley, who is only 23 years old, is native of Prov idence, R. l., and graduate of Holy Cross college. g
 The bride of yesterday is daugh- ter of MT and Mrs William H. Gray. Although born in this city. she moved to New York with her parents five years ago. She attended the New York High school. of which she is a graduate. From early girlhood she showed a passion for sports and ath- letics of all kinds. She was an en- thusiastic baseball fan.
 One year ago. Mrs Gray and her daughter came to this city to visit relatives. They stopped with friends at 3329 North Park avenue, and while here Miss Gray attended ball game nearly every day. It was at the ball park that Miss Gray first saw Coakley. Shortly afterward she was introduced to the young pitcher by her cousin. It was a case of love at first sight.
 After that Miss Gray never failed to attend a game when young Coak- ley was slated to pitch, and more than once she spurred him to victory by her presence.

THE PUGlLiSTS
DID O'BRIEN
 PLAY THE FOX
May Have Stalled in His Fight With Berger-Boxing Match
 to Aid City.

Was Jack O'Brien stalling in his fight with Berger on Monday night in Philadelphia? That is question that is agitating the minds of good many sports in this city,-It does not seem probable, although it is diff cult to place your hand on the willy Jack. One thing is sure, the Berger that met Rodenback of New York out west some time ago. when Berger was given good trimming. and the Berger who met O'Brien Monday night. were two totally different Bergers. Out west they believe that no heavyweight in that territory can beat Al Kaufman, yet O'Brien put Kaufman away and Berger outfought Jack. It is funny thing when you come to study 1t out and perhaps we will now hear of twenty round af- fair between Berger and O.Brien or six round bout between Berger and Kaufman. That last one would be good to look at.

THE DIAM ON D
WAS THE
 KING YESTERDAY
All Connecticut League Game, Were Postponed Interest
 ing Notes of the Game.

Another financial blow was deliv- cred to the local and the Norwich homogeneous yesterday by reason of the downpour of rain just when it was least wanted. Norwich certainly must have been conceived under a rainy star, so far as Waterbury is concern ed, for OH almost every trip to this city, rain has carried off the victory. Five times has Jack Tighe and his band arrived in this city and on only two occasions were the games com pleted in the full nine innings or more. Yesterday the hopes of the managers were for big attendance and there is no doubt there would have been at least fifteen hundred present had not the threatening clouds kept the peo- pie away. At that there was about five hundred out on the grounds when the game begun.
 Rogers and Hughes for the Prodi- gale were pitted against Plank and Bridges for the Norwich team Char ley Kennedy. the ump of umps. made his first appearance in this city and called the game promptly at half past three. Ball, the first man up for Nor wich hit high one to center garden where McCabe planted it. Cote went out from second to first on a good stop of Rice's. Golden got life on McAndrews's error but was nailed at second as he tried to steal the bag. The Prodigals also were retired in one two. three order. McAndrews famed the air. McCabe flew out to left field and Swander also struck out. Dark clouds had begun to drift over the field at this time and the rain drops began to fall. Lord, the first man up for Norwich in the second, hammer ed one down the third base line which went clear to the fence ard the fat fellow rested on third. Soffel flew out to McAndrews and the rain came down harder, Perkins drove out a safe pings and as Lord crossed the plate the rain swept over the field in sheets and everybody ran for shelter. All crowded into the grand stand and watched the pyrotechnic display. The lightning flashed in zig gag fash ion round the stand and the thunder crashed in unison. One particularly vivid bolt, followed so quickly by the thunder clap made many believe for a moment the stand had been struck and all huddled closer together. as if seeking protection. The rain poured down and quickly flooded the field and 1t was seen at once that even if the storm did let up. 1t would be im- possible to play the game. Then the spectators began to leave. at least ltlpse who were fortunateyeIouehctS have umbrellas. while two hundred or more were forced to occupy the stand until the storm had ceased. It was hard blow to Norwich and par ticularly hard to Waterbury because. as 1t was the clerks half holiday, a big crowd was expected.

Shad Link. the heavyweight wres- tier, will undertake to throw 1,500- pound bull belonging to Henry Eek ert, a prominent cattle brokeriof Bal. timore, for a S100 side bet. The unique wrestling match will be held at Greater Electric park in Baltimore county some time this week.
 The match grew out of an argu- ment between Eckert and Charles J. Weiss, manager of Link. The bull is a powerful animal, and Eckert be- lieves it is impossible for any man to put the bull down. Should Link slip up or fall during the contest it will be counted against him. The three best in five falls will decide the win ner

CHARGE NOT SUSTAINED.

The recent acquittal of Rube Young and Frank Hoar. the Syracuse ath- letes, by the Intercollegiate associa- ton. brings to mind the fact that during the past year charges have been unsuccessfully pressed against seven of the greatest athletes in America. Tn five cases the allega- tions failed miserably. Of the other two. SheppaTd's case was practically laid aside, awaiting further develop ments, and Bonhag was convicted on a technicality. much to the disgust of all true sportsmen-
 Because he failed to have his registration card renewed on time, Bonhag was suspended for several weeks. and kept out of both the Metropolitan and Canadian cham pionship meetings.

 Martin Sheridzn's great work for America at Athens has caused the charges against him to fan fat. and is is safe to say that he is one of the most popular athletes in competition today Repeated attempts were made to prove that Czssleman. the Colgate star. played base ball for money. but the worst proved against him was that he won a prize that vas not s1ftably engraved
