SENATORS OUT FOR HUGHES

Six Reactionaries, It Is Said, Meet to
 Boom New York Governor.
 New York, Sept. 21.-The New York Times published story to the effect that recently a conference was held near New York at which a friend of Governor Hughes was met by half a dozen United States senators, includ. ing some of the most prominent mem. bers of the upper house. These sena- tors included those who have been most active in embarrassing the pres. ident's policies and hindering his activ. ities and at least one who has done it in the open.
 The object of the conference was first to secure pro-Hughes delegation from New York state and at any rate to keep Taft from getting it, and, sec ond, to arrange for the capture of "fa. vorite son" states for Hughes as sec. ond choice. This latter idea involves having the Pennsylvania delegation go to the convention for Knox as first choice and Hughes as second, the Hi. nois delegation to go similarly sched. uled for Cannon first and Hughes sec ond, Indiana for Fairbanks ana Hughes, and so on.

Would Like to Take a Fall Out of All the Mat Artists Before
 He Retires.

Wrestler Eddie O'Connell is about to leave this part of the country, but before he goes he thros-s out sonle strangle holds that should make soms of the .wrestlers sit up and think. Here Is his letter, written with blood in his eye and the same on his pen:
 New Haven, Aug 9, 1907. Sporting Editor Waterbury Democrat,
 Dear Sir: am about to leave this part of the country and will be unable to make any matches in this vicinity, and as there are a number ofo wrest- lers who have expressed desire to meet me on the mat, would Hike to give them all chance before I go. I would like to meet Olson of Hartford Barnes of Springfield, Bonefant of New Britain, or any other man in the game especially Alex Swanson, who claims to be the welter-weight cham pion. will wfestle him a straight match at the welter-weight limit, for fun, money or marbles. I will wrestle either in public or private, with or without side bet Now If there is any one who likes to meet me, now is the time to speak up instead of waiting until go and then telling their friends what an awful lemon 1 would have been for them, and how hard they tried to get me on the mat. Will agree to throw Cronan of Water bury twice in one hour, that is. pro. viding he don't jump the ropes and try to make getaway. He always claimed I tried to fix 1t with him, now it is up to him to make good.
 Yours respectfully,

THE DIAMOND TOO LIFELESS
 AND SLUGGISH Waterbury Won. But It Was Not Hard to Do It-Results of All
 Other Games.

There were just two distinct fea- lures in the game yesterday which robbed 1t of its tameness. One was the fact that Waterbury won and the other was the brilliant and spec tacular catch of Hi Ladd in the sixth inning of the game. Our win came because we hit the ball at the right time and were aided considerably by several cheesey misplays. We began the scoring in the first inning. Bss- tian and Fitzpatrick singled and Shortstop H;lt, who took the throw from Jim O'Rourke in right, where Fitzy had sent the ball, threw badly to third to catch Bastian and the lat ter crossed the plate. Fitzy went to second. was sacrificed to third by McAndrews and came home on Swander's high fly out to right. Our next run and last came in the sixth. O'Rourke started off with a single, Lachance hit one to Sawyer at third. the latter threw badly to second to catch O'Rourke and the latter weut to third. From here he came home on fielder's choice. There was a mix-up in this inning in the matter of scoring. and 1t was here that Ladd made his spectacular catch. Gre was out with our run in and La chance was on third and Moore on first. Farley drove a long one out over Ladd's head to center. Ladd went after t and Lachance and Moore. believing 1t was impossible to catch 1t. started for home. Ladd ran clear to the fence and reaching out one hand captured the ball just as 1t was about to hit the fence. Lachance immediately started back for third, touched 1t and then ran home. Moore. who had almost reached third, started his return of the bases. Ladd relayed the ball in to Hit, who threw to first and caught Moore before he could get back. Many believed that Lachance, as he had reached home long before Moore was out, was entitled to tue run, and the scorers gave him credit for 1t. After the game Umpire Me- Cloud stated that the run could not count and Roger Connor decided the same way.
 Bridgeport scored just once, in the fourth inning. One was out when Phelan singled. Sawyer ad- vanced him with a Texas leaguer to short left. Hit struck out and then Jim Q'Rourke, the senior,. dropped aR8th$f Texas leaguer Into ss161xs rigiIt and Phelan came home 1sha !. was all that was doing in the game, which was as dull as a deaf and dumb picnic.
