STORY OF FAMILY REUNION.
Details Complete, But Confrmatory
Data Not Obtainable.

According to d dispatch to the Philadelphia
Public Ledger from Florence, N. J. published
this morning Charles T. Lewis of that
place was recently restored to his long-lost
wife and da ughter through a chance meet
ing in Washington. The stranger than
fiction story sets forth that Lewis was mar
ried in 1874 at the age of eighteen, and SIX
wears later, when away from home on
business trip, his wife, her two sisters and
her mother were killed in the wreck OF an
excursion train. Ten years later-in 1S.2-
he married again, and a few years alter
that his wife started for England to Sc
cure an inheritance. She never returned,
and her husband was informed by cable
that she was dead Soon thereafter tele-
gram from Washington informed Lewis
that his little daughter had died suddenly.
Lewis wandered around for a while, and
finally settled in Florence, n. j., whence he
came to Washington a couple OF weeks
ago to attend the convention of st. An
drew's Brotherhood. During his stay here
he met a young woman whose name he
had accidentally learned was Lewis. An
exchange of data convinced Lewis that she
was his daughter and. according to the
dispatch in question, all sorts of affecting
demonstrations followed the meeting OF
father. mother and daughter
The only trouble about this story Is in
locating the daughter concerned in the re-
union. Diligent inquiry this afternoon
failed to turn up clue in Washington.

rules to govern the contests Will be the

American League placed a team in New

JAKE STAHL INTENDS
GOING TO LAW

CHICAGO. September 2G.-Jake Stahl,
manager of the Washington base ball team
of the America League in 1905 and 1896,
has engaged Representative James r. Mann
as attorney and soon will institute suit
against the national commission and the
Washington, Boston and Chicago CLUBS
upon the ground that he has been pre-
vented from following his calling, that OF
a professional base ball player all the sea-
son. He lost thereby his salary of more
than $4,000, offered by Boston, and suffered
serious damage to his reputation.
Stahl says the Washington owners prom
ised to let him go to any other American
League club he might choose. three
cornered deal was proposed by the Wash
ington club, whereby Stahl was to be
traded to Detroit for Mcintyre and Leary
and Mcintyre in turn was to be traded to
New York for Joe Yeager. But when called
on to go through with the deal the Wash
ington club refused. Stahl appealed to the
national commission to set a price on his
release. which it did, of $1,000. Under this
ruling the Chicago club is alleged to have
purchased Stahl, but has never, up to the
present time, formally offered him a con-
tract

PHILADELPHIA, September 2G.-The
Athletics yesterday took the second game
OF the final series with the Chicago team
and thereby temporarily checked the pen
nant aspirations of the visitors. Plank,

hit being made off his delivery after the

The roofing of the crowd was even more

and almost every conceivable object with
which to make a racket.
While Plank was pitching unhittable ball,

Both O'Brien and Clymer were under the
weather yesterday, which caused a shift in
the lineup. Charley Jones resume his old
job IN center. Milan chased ito right
and Shipke again took up the third-base
problem. Tony Smith, who had been Ill
Tuesday, was all right again yesterday and
was back al his old stamping ground at
short.
Boz Ganley came within an ace of send
ing Pitcher Bailey to the hospital in the
seventh inning. Tony Smith had led off
with hit and had been sacrificed to sec
ond by Char'ey Smith. Jones flied out to
Stone. but Ganley hit a tremendous liner
directly through the center of the diamond
and Barley had only time to partially turn
around when the ball struck him and
glanced off to Niles, resulting IN an out at
first. Had Bailey been able to dodge the
ball it surely would have gone for a long
single into center and scored Tony Smith.
There have been numerous inquiries for
Pitcher Francis of late ard upon inquring
of Manager Cantilon it was learned that
the youngster had been sent home Francis
was under the weather for the past month
and had been to the hot. springs before
coming east He didn't get any better and
Cantillon decided to send him home. He
will be taken to Galveston next spring for
the final try-out.
Tomorrow the celebrated Cleveland Ma
poeons will be here and start a series of
four games. Manager Lajoie and his fol-
lowers gave the New Yorks a good trim

reason the fur should fly when the Ma
tons and Maps get together.
Little Clyde Milan had the mis- fortune to
br1Iise his hand very badly about Two weeks
ago, and 1t refuses to get well, the result
being that he can't grasp the bat the way
ne likes to. The bruise Is right in the mid
die of his hand and is something on the
order of an old-fasilioned stone bruise, but
there is a chance that one of the small
bones may be broken. After the season
is ended Milan will put his hand under the
X-ray to see If the injury is serious or not.
that is II it continues to bother him that
long. Milan was certainly singing the ball
when he first came here, and THIS explains
his dropping off, although he hasn't been
