WRESTLING OCONNELL IS
 SARCASTIC Writes a Letter About a Hartford Wrestler and Gets a Tart
 Answer.

Kansas City, Mo, March 13.--All possibility of match between Frank GOtch and George Hackenschmidt was set aside upon receipt of letter yesterday from c. E. Cochrane, manager for the Russian Iion," in which he states that, owing to en- in Europe it will be i'm. possible for Hackenschmidt to come to this country before 1908.
 The Missouri Athletic club of Kan sas City had offered ten-thousand- dollar purse for meeting between the two men. A communication from C0chrane some weeks ago named the conditions under which Hackell- schmidt would come to Kansas City. The conditions were practically all agreed to and contracts were for warded to both men, with Hacken- schmidt calling for contest to take place in May.
 GOtch has continually said that he would make any reasonable conces- sion in order to meet Hackenschmidt, but the fact remains that six weeks have expired and he has failed to sign the articles sent him at the time similar paper were sent to Hacken- schmidt.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-03-13

one thing, that Waterbury was up against the two leading rushers of the country and the best center that the west ever produced.
 If Tommy Holderness and Frank Sutton were not in the game last night there is no knowing what would happen. Those two chaps played the best defensive game that has ever been seen on the local polo floor.
 Waterbury now holds the record for attendance, for there were moro than three thousand present at the game last night, if there was one. Just think. there were twenty packed into the press box that is supposed to accommodate about i've.
 To show you the defensive playine that was being done by the center and halfback of the Bridgeport team. just look at the number of stops Mitchell has. Eleven minutes had expired before he got his first stop, and yet our rushers had the ball, but the work in the center of the
 floor did the business.
 
 We are not laying claim to beina any better than Bridgeport. after seeing that contest last night, but we do say, that if we had center who played his position we would have stood a good chance of winning out. Mooney tried hard enough, but he was not there when wanted. If New Haven and Hartford don't watch out Wallingford will not be credited with the title of tailendefB very long. The bunch is liable to make a spurt and come flying up the line with rush.
 There were some fans who kicked last night because the local manage. ment reserved one section of the rink for the visitors. Just place youraelf in their position. Supposing three hundred went down from here to Bridgeport, wouldn't they expect that the Bridgeport management would reserve some seats for them? It was only courtesy to the visitors.s It would be impossible to reserve three hundred seats in the grand balcony and at that the local management never expected such . tremendous crowd to be present. It is the last time it will be done. however, for New Britain when her rooters como here on the special train on Thurs- day evening. will have to hustle for their own seats. The action of last night was not meant to injure the local polo fans, but it was simply . courteous way of treating visitors. just such treatment as the local fans would like to receive had they gon4 down in body to Bridgeport. How. ever. there will be no moro of it and the New Britain management was notified to-day that the rooters from that city must hustle for their own seats when they get hefe Thursday night.

UMPIRES ARE NAMED.
Supervisor Kennedy Has Selected .
 Good Staff.

John F. Kennedy of Bristol, chief of umpires of the Connecticut league of Baseball clubs, announced his staff yesterday for tho season of 1907. It is as follows: John J. Kelly of Shamo. kin, Pa; Charles Kennedy. of Spring field; James c. Bligh, of Brooklyn; and William J. Mackay. of North Adams. Mir Kennedy said he was confident that this quartet would give satisfaction as all were tried men and had plenty of experience. The chief is familiar with the characteris- tics of each one and he knows that there is not a man on the staff that will take any gulf from a player or allow a manager to get fresh. MT Kennedy said the new, signal system would be introduced in this league for the first time this season and he thought it would please the patrons of tho game. Briefly. the uUps raise their right arm when they call q strike and remain motionless when the pitched ball is not strike. By this system, those who are out of hearing distance of the umps can tell what is going on.
 Eddie O'Connell waxed sarcastic yesterday and sent the following let ter to the Hartford Courant:
 Sporting Editor of Courant:
 I sec that a wrestler named Olson has posted $10O with you as a forfeit to wrestle me for 800. Now. l don't know whether he is looking for q lit- tic advertisement or really wants to wrestle. If he will be in the Audi torium On March 14, will wres- tie him for his 800 as soon as get , through with Bonefant or, if he wants a match in the preliminary. l have a man ten pounds lighter than him. self who will agree to throw him two falls in an hour for his $20O. He IS getting rather high-minded and l ad- mire the condescending and lofty way he has of sidestepplng the Terrible Turk. Olson knows that the Turk IS not very wealthy so he comes out with A bmff about side-bct in order to quit fin his match with the Turk, but the publlc is not easily fooled. l don't know where Olson got his repu- tation as a wrestler. I threw him in six minutes for side-bet of SD and I thought that cured him of his big head. But seeing that 1t hasn't, l will take him on Thursday evening after my match with Bonefant. if he doesn't get frightened before that time."
 New Haven. March IF.
 Then th.. Courant man got in few sarcasms in the following style:
 Tt would have been more sports manlike if o'Connell had covered the forfeit of s25 that olson put up for match with him. Olson issued a challenge 10 O'Connell and put up the money. If O'Connell thinks Oi- son is easy he should have accepted the challenge instead of writing q fresh letter. When OConnell threw inc Hartford man. which was few wears ago Olson didn't know much ahout the game"
