RARlTANS MAY PLAY
BUSINESS MEMS TEAM
Efforts Being Made to Arrange At
traCtive Game for Saturday,
September %.

Since the challenge issued through
the NEWS yesterday by the Brown
ing Field Club, the team composed
mainly of business men, negotiations
have been started for a game between
the latter and the Raritans, Saturday,
September %. The Raritans, one of
the fastest amateur teams in this sec
tion of the state, have secured the
use of Amusement Park for Satur-
day afternoons for the remainder of
this season., to provide good cxhi-
billions for the fans and to add to
their treasury, as the long green will
be essential for them to enter the
proposed league next season in this
section of the state.
Their first game at the park will
be next Saturday with the Metuchen
f. c., as announced in the NEWS
last week. Manager Belcher and Oh
sen, of the Browningites and Rari-

ter of a game at the Park Saturday,
September %, under consideration.

Baseball


The Factory League season vas a
splendid one and, besides providing
some mighty good baseball, raised
the interest in athletics in this city.
1t was a pretty three-cornered race
for the championship.
The, Nationals have started off
well, winning their first two games
at the Railway park by such scores
as 6-5 and AS against fast teams.
The eyes of local fans are on the
BaltimQres in the Eastern League,
because of Fred Burchell's connection
with it,d The local %southpaw is win
ming his games right along, but the
Orioles will have to scratch some to
overhaul Buffalo and Jersey City be-
fore the season ends on Sunday, Sep
tember %. The Baltimores' final
Series at Buffalo will be exciting.
A number of fans here are wonder
ing how 400 can be called "a few"
and also how the word forgot" can
be construed to describe a case where
a person sends word he cannot appear
because of improper physical condi-
ton. ,a
It's never pleasant to be compelled
to back water"
There will be no more Eastern
League games in. Newark this season.
The yNewarks will make their final
appearance in Newark next Sunday,
playing an exhibition game with the
New York Nationals.
Paterson has won the pennant in
the Hudson River League. The sea-
son ended Sunday.
Baltimore made a seasons record
in the game with Providence, Sunday,
scoring ten runs in one inning after
the Grays had had a lead of 10 to L.
Pitcher Williams and Outfielder
Curtis, who received a try-out last
Thursday at Baltimore, have return
ed to Atlantic City, the Newark man
ager deciding that they are not yet
ripe enough for Eastern League com
pany.
The Norwich team has won the
Connecticut League pennant.
The Philadelphia Colored Giants
defeated the Brooklyn Royal Giants
yesterday at Atlantic City by a score
of 5 to q.
Knapper, the local shortstop, who
plays with Matawan and Ridgewood
on weekdays and Sundays. respect
lively, made three assists and one put
out in Saturdays game when Malta
wan beat Long Branch 6-3. Sad to
relate he muffed the first pop fly that
he has missed in years.
The %'toboggan chute" has become
the popular thing for the Long
Branch league nine in the Atlantic
Coast league. Since they took their
first ride on Labor day, they have
positively refused to get off. The
most recent slide was Saturday after
noon when Matawan pocketed anoth-
.er victory. That was "the fourth
straight which the Long Branch
team lost within a week. With the
pennant practically "cinched' a week
ago, Long Branch must now make an
uphill fight to capture the coveted
flag.

ROEBLINCS DEFEATED
BRIDGEPORT BY A RUN
Former Amusement Company Play
ers Won from Connecticut League
Club Yesterday 2 to |.

A magnificent rally in the eighth
inning. which was topped off by a
smashing two-bagger by Horton yes
terday afternoon, won the game for
the Roeblings over the Bridgeport
team, of the Connecticut state league
at Trenton. The score was 2 to 1.
h game was a highly interesting
one and was brimful of brilliant
plays. Not an error was chalked
against the players, and there was
sufficient hitting to make the contest
enjoyable to the lovers of swatting.
1t was an even game throughout, and
the best team won.
The Bridgeport team is owned by
Jim O'Itourke, the once famous New
York National League catcher, and
he was advertised to be in the lineup.
The veteran fully intended to be be-
hind the bat, but after the game al
Elizabeth Sunday he received a tele-
gram from a client in Bridgeport
which necessitated his presence in
court yesterday, consequently he did
not play, and there was much disap-
pointment. His son, James, Jr., play
ed second base, and much interest
conferred in his work.
O'Neill, McCune and Bennett, all
of whom were stars on the Perth
Amboy team earlier in the season
each made a neat sacrifice hit.
The Roeblings will play their Sec
ond exhibition game with the Will
burs, of the Delaware Valley League,
at Trenton tomorrow.
Manager Dick Smith, representing
the Roebling Amusement company, is
negotiating for the Gans-Nelson fight
pictures, and it is likely that they
will be shown at the Roebling field
in Trenton, Saturday evening.

at Rremerhayen. Germany, by Capt. r..
Nlerich. of the North German Lloyd's
steamship Bremen. The captain says
that on his outward journey 20 New
York on Dec Is at 80 o'clock In the
afternoon. the wireless telegraph oper-
ator of the Bremen reported to him
that he could distinctly hear the calling
signal (P), of the Nantucket lightshlp.
The Bremen was then $40 miles from
the llghtship and Capt. Nierich sug-
gtsted that the operator inquire wheth-
el the lightship was really calling. To
his surprise he got an answer II ram;
Nantucket Lightship. Congratulate
such n long distance has been over
bridged, Weather clear variable winds
and a smooth sea-"
on Monday however. the Bremen
heard that the Nantucket had gone
down in the terrific storm the week
before, on Dec II, and that since then
no lshtship had been in service 1t
was clear that the captain had been
hoaxed.
There is talk of carrying the matter
to the courts, since. 1t is pointed out,
practical joke giving misleading de-
tails as 10 the weather. etc, might lead
TO disaster. The ethics and the law
OF wireless telegraphy have yet to be
determined
