HAVE MORE
RESPECT FOR HARVARD

LONDON. August 30-The belief that
boat race with Harvard has been seriously
shaken by a comparison Of the perform
ances of the two crews in the trials over
the full course yesterday. In yesterdays
trial the time Of the English crew was 20
seconds more than that made by Harvard
in Tuesdays trial. Besides that, 1t has
been learned that the Cambridge crew was
pretty tired after the trial. Three Of them
afterward suffered from dysentery. which
caused the afternoons practice to be aban-
doned.
The confidence of the Cambridge men has
been weakened considerably by these trials.
They have awakened at last to a realiza-
ton of the fact that in Harvard they have
q dangerous competitor. There Is a strong
suspicion in rowing circles that the English
men have taken things too easily and have
grown stale. They are dissatisfied with
their present boat. and have hurriedly or
dered Simms Of Putney to construct new
shell of lighter material and weight, which
Is to be ready by Monday. They say the
boat they are now using Is too heavy. Tho
serious. and IL Is expected that the crew
will be ready for another practice spin to-
day.
There has been a noticeable change in the
betting in the last two days. The odds were
8 to on Cambridge. but yesterday dropped
of money, have. however. not been able to
place cent at these Odds
Applications for seats to see the race have
been received from over 200 Harvard men
made to seat them opposite e-f3nish. Am
bassador Reid and the secretaries of the
American embassy and Consul General
Wynne will witness the race.

of National League Clubs.

: Manager Stahl worked like Trojan yes
terday to pull off the double-header with
Detroit. but the elements were against him
and the two games had to- be passed up.
The field was In very bad condition at
noon. but Business Manager Fowler and
Groundkeeper O'Day spread gasoline over
the base lines. about ten gallons being used,
and then distributed several bags of saw
dust. with the result that at o'clock the
infield presented fair condition, although
the outfield was extremely soggy. The
players on both teams were somewhat back
ward about taking the field, for fear of
mlshaps in the way of strained ankles from
slipping. but finally at 2:15 Umpire
OLoughin called Play ball."
Charley Smith was on the firing line for
Washington, while George Mullin did the
honors for Detroit. Mcintyre. the first
man up, struck out. Mil made fine catch
of O'Leary's fly to short center and Payne
died on a foul fly to Warner.
For Washington Mill died, short to first;
Jones. from pitcher to first, but Cross
was safe on O'Leary's bad throw of his
grounder to Lindsay. Anderson then closed
the inning Mullin to Lindsay
In the second inning Crawford was out
on roller to Cross, and Lindsay singled to
left. Schaefer then hit a roller to Mil and
a double play hooked promising, but Altizer
dropped the throw and both men were safe.
Coughlin died on a roller to Mil and
Schmidt closed the inning with pop fly to
Cross. For the locals Hickman led off with
single to right center, but died trying to
reach second on the hit-and-run game.
Stahl got a base on balls. but Warner
forced him at second on a roller to O'Leary,
and Smith closed the affair with grounder
to Lindsay.
The rain then came down hard and time
was called. At the expiration Of thirty min
utes Umpire O'Loughlin announced that the
first game was called off, and few min
utes later made the second announcement
that the second was also called off at the
request of Manager Stahl. The field by that
time had become quagmire and continual
ton OF play would have made 1t a farce.
Nearly 1000 people had journeyed to the
park notwithstanding the bad weather con-
ditions. demonstrating how much base ball
enthusiasm has been worked up by the re-
cent showing of the Nationals.
Manager Stahl and his band OF Nationals
left at midnight for New York, where they
will play three double-headers, commencing
this afternoon. Two Of the games have been
carried over through postponements. and
Saturdays sport is regular scheduled
double header. On Monday the Nationals
play a morning and afternoon game In Bos-
ton and then return here Tuesday for Sc
ries with Connie Mack's Athletics.
The Detrotts left for home on the 7:1o
train and Capt. Coughlin remarked to a
Star reporter that the Tigers were lucky to
drop only one game here.

MANAGING BOSTONS

BOSTON. Mass. August 30-When asked
about the successor to former Manager Col
Inns of the Boston Americans. President
Ban Johnson of the American League said
that there would be no new appointee this
season. but that the club would be under
the direction of Outfielder Charles 8. Stah.
Mr.. Johnson said there was no truth at all
in various rumors connected with the names
of several parties.
NO" said Mr.. Johnson, Hugh Duffy will
not succeed Mr.. Collins. 1t will not be Mr..
Armour. and 1t will not be Mr.. Jennings. 1t
will not be Mr.. Murray, for Mr.. Murray
will succeed Mr.. Duffy in Philadelphia. I
think very highly of Mr.. Murray and also
of Mr.. Jennings"
The head Of the league was highly pleased
with the showing Boston made today and
felt satisfied that the teams record would
be better by considerable In the future than
it has been. The whole responsibility now
rests upon Stahl. and there was a dash and
endeayor to win today that has been utterly
foreign in games in the past
