THE DIAMOND
SLUGGERS WE
 WERE FOR SURE
James O'Rourke Was Sad as He Saw His Pitcher Badly Treat
 ed-AIl Other Results.

Waterbury took a hand in the swat game yesterday and as conse- qnence Mr Cornen of Bridgeport had to suffer the humiliation of having fourteen safe ones tackled up against his record, two of them two seekers and one three station stopping place. Lachance and Ryan were the dandies with the big stick, the for mer hitting off single, a double and a triple and the latter swatting 1t for three singles. Ryan was robbed also of what looked good for at least two by the elongated Hi Ladd out in center garden. Bronkie had all kinds of curves, and while he was found for nine safe ones he did not half try after the third in- ming when we had the game cinched There was some great fielding done on both sides. Bronkie himself had nine chances, all of which he accept ed neatly. Mcdonald at second had twelve chances and took them all without culver, and McEnroe in the short field handled seven that came his way without a misplay. O'Rourke at second for the visitors took the six bangs that came to him in clever style, Hit at short had six clean ones, while Beaumont had nine chances and fell down on one. Terry Rogers signalled his thirty-second time on earth by hammering the ball for two corking two seekers, and was sad because the scorers gave Mike McAndrews an error on anoth- CT.
 We scored in the first inning on a single by Swander, who stole sec ond and came home on Lachance's one base drive. We slaughtered things ih the third. Ward started of with a single, McAndrews beat one out, advancing Ward, Swander sacrificed them forward a base and Lachance drove both in with a two bagger that sounded sweet to the fans. Schincel walked free and Ryan smashed out his first hit Beaumont made a bad throw to nip one of the runners and across the plate they came with two more runs, Audhih6 lOuI III dii Uydu tueu Cdllo over the plate with our fifth one on an error by Hughes, and there we stopped, for that inning. Another came in the fifth when Lachance hammered one to right center for three bags and came home on Ryan's second safe swat. Our last one was made when Schincel smashed out a two bagger and came home on Ryan's third drive for single.
 Bridgeport scored one in the fourth on a double by Beaumont and a single by Ladd. Another was made in the next inning, two dou- bles by Hit and Rogers. The last one came to the visitors In the eighth on singles by Sawyer and Phelan. The score:

REPORTERS MELEE.
Denizens of the Eastern Section of
 the City Take Notice.

Captain D. J. Lahy and Manager "Bill' locum of the ball team repre- senting the reporters of this city, have with the aid of Harold c. Cross, chairman of the committee on transportation, completed arrange ments for the game to be played at Morris park next Sunday with the Hayseeds. The above trio are bub- bling over with enthusiasm in re- gard to the contest and seem eager for the fray. For a time it appeared as though MT Lahy would resign as he had not the time to devote to the players, but he finally agreed to re- main at the head of the team. With the situation as it is 1t does not seem possible that the scribes will lose.
 The rooters for the reporters are placing much hope in Bill" Slocum, he of Winsted fame. Slocum is con- sidered one of the best players in the city and will play several positions in the game. .N
 Captain Lahy, Cross. of the trans portation committee and leader of the cheering brigade, and Fitzpatrick are taking daily sprints to get into condition.
 One of the latest men to report to Captain Lahy is considered a big ad- dition to the team He is no other than James R. Edlin who may do the twirling should anything happen to the star of the team, MT Slocum
 Should Edlin pitch Joe McNiff will catch so as to even things up. Last evening Manager Slocum declared that one of his players McNiff was suffering slightly from moonstroke, but would in all probability be in the game. James D. c. Murray will also be on hand.
 After conference held last even ing the following was given as the probable line up of the newspaper mems team:
 D. Hayes c. Slocum D. Sawdey 1b, Lahey 2b, Dawson ss, McNiff 3b, Cross If, Fitzpatrick of, Murray If.
