ball was not thrown there TO intercept
him, Was the decision correct? II. n.
Unless shortstop touches second while
he had the ball, or threw 1t there, or the
inner was touched with the ball, he was
not out.
Sporting Editor:
With runners on second and third, none
out, the batter hits to shortstop, who
throws batter out at first. Runner on
third leads off a short distance on the
play, and the runner on second runs up
and touches third. First baseman throws
to catcher. who steps on home plate.
Umpire rules that man IN third is forced
by man from second, 4 calls him out.
Was this decision correct. or how should
putout in this case be made? H.. r. j..
Runner on third was not forced. and
could be put out only by being touched
with the ball while off third. No runner
ever is forced off a base except to make
room for a batsman on first.

DURNELL TO QUIT TURF.
Will Sell Nealon and Other Horses-May
Go to England.

SARATOGA. Aug. sc. f. Durnell,
who is closely associated with John w.
Gates in the ownership of a racing stable
said at the track yesterday that he would
sell all his horses on August 16, including
Nealon. the Suburban Handicap winner,
and retire from racing in this country.
He said he expected to go to England,
where he might get a small string OF
horses together.
It was said by a man in a position to
know that Durnell had been losing heavily
since Mr.. Gates sailed for Europe ten days
ago. A story was in circulation also that
Mr.. Gates had left $4,000 with A. B. Hud-
son to be bet at the direction of Durnell,
and that the full amount had gone into
the strongboxes of the bookmakers. Two
or three %well-known layers laughed at
this. however. and said there had been no
sign of 1t In the ring.

Johnson,s Omcr to Tommy Burns.

In order TO induce Tommy Burns to fight
his dusky-skinned protege, Jack Johnson,
Sam Fitzpatrick made the following propo-
sition last night: He will give Burns SIS, 900
ont of the $4,000 purse offered by James
Coffroth of the .Calmo Athletic Club for a
contest this fall. Burns can have this
money as a guarantee whether he wins,
loses or draws with the negro. Sam Is so
anxlous to get the white champion into the
ring with his man that he will waive his
end of the purse. II this does not meet
with Burns's approval johnson is prepared
TO tackle Tommy on the basis of 70 per
cent. to the winner and Is per cent. to the
loser.
Fitzpatrick hopes his proposal may in
duce Burns to sign articles to fight the big
black man.

SurrenderS to Jersey
City, 5 to 8.

The defeat at the hands of Jersey City
yesterday reduced Newark's license to
third place TO the margin Of one game.
The Skeeters broke into the first division
by scoring their 5 to 5 victory, and, should
they win again today, would tie the Colts
for. third place. Baltimore and Providence
are not far behind, and radical changes
may occur In the standing during the next
few days.
The Colts made a game effort to land
yesterdays game. They struck up a lead
of three runs In the first inning and fielded
well throughout the contest, but they
could not check the avalanche of hits

have lost his cunning. That alone was re-
