BROwN-DARTMOUTH.
Game Ends in WrangIe in Third
 Inning.

Providence, April 25.-Dartmouth
 forfeited to Brown in the third in- ming yesterday, Captain Sklllen with drawing his team from the field and refusing to continue the game. The trouble arose over a decision of Um- pire Lanigan. The third opened with each team having one run to it's credit. Brown at the bat started to hit Skillen lively. At the time of the questioned play the bases were full, Donnie on third. Jones on second and Payne on first. lift at bat clipped out a fast grounder which the Dart mouth second baseman fumbled near the base line between first and sec- ond. As the ball rolled away from his glove Payne, who was running down to second, struck it with his foot. In the meantime Donnie and Jones had crossed the plate. Lani- gan allowed Dennie's run to stand, as he had scored on the tumble be- fore Payne interfered with the ball. Jones was sent back to third and Payne was ont for interference. Skillen eontended that Jones should be returned to second and Donnie to third. Lanigan was firm and when the Dartmouth team left the field he declared the game forfeited. the score being 9 to 0 in Browns favor.

NAUGATUCK WAS BEATEN.

In a one sided game in Naugatuck yesterday which lasted only seven in- nings, Waterbury easily defeated the firemen of the borough by the score of 15 to }. Though Waterbury ex- pected to win, the players were of the opinion that the Bremen would make a hard fight, as they always have in the past. But as the home team made errors galore of which the visitors took advantage, it was seen that it was to be walkover. As the game progressed the Naugatuck team seem cd to get worse instead of better.
 It was a poor day for baseball and several times the contest had to be stopped because of the manner in which the dust blew across the field. There was no features to compel those present to take their hands out of their pockets and no one regretted the calling of the game at the end of the seventh. The score:

 Good chance for two victories. It seems funny that there will be nothing doing at Rockville this season on Sunday when one thinks of the | effort made last season to play pro- fessional and amateur ball.
 The Amateur league has so many friends and so many are interested in it that it is bound to prosper. The managers of the teams are not dead ones, either. ....t --.s-.
 The Waterbury team looks better than at the same time year ago
 Eddie Swander Is still in poor shape and his long siege of sickness has left Its effects.
 Boston and Brooklyn played thir- teen innings yesterday and neither side made an error. R
 The first triple play of the season came to light in the Virginia league. It was made by Martin. Butman and Burns of the Richmond team.-New York Sun. Why not give the credit to the Powhattan team of New York, who made a triple in this city last Saturday?
 Frank Burke, the outfielder who was sold by Manager Danaher of New Haven to the New York Ma tionals. was secured yesterday by President George B. Dovey of the Boston Nationals. Dovey was tired of waiting for President Murphy of the Chicago Nationals to turn an outfielder over to him. Burke was once with the Meriden team. He led the Connecticut league last season at the bat with a percentage of .349. He made twenty doubles, two triples and two home runs, besides fourteen sacrifice hits. Charles Fallon said last night that Iron Man McGinnity spoke very we'll of Burke's ability as a player and thought he was comer. Boston was left without a spare outfielder owing to the death of Harry Dolan.
 Sam Mertes has finally found A sanctuary in Minneapolis. He will play left field for the team of the Flour city.
 With so many base ball leagues and so many balls to be thrown out at openings, spring has come to be a busy season for mayors.

T HE DIAM OND
CITY LEAGUE
 THROWN DOWN
Owners of Grounds Say There Will be no Sunday Ball at Reid
 vile This Season.

l After endeavoring to come to terms for the past couple of weeks during 1 which time the Waterbury baseball club agreed to the conditions submit
 ted by the City Amateur league on
 Sunday, it appears as though the deal ] is off, for last evening at meeting held, the managers were informed that i they could not have the field the com ing season. The action of the Water l bury management will not effect the ] City league schedule in any way for
 at meeting to be held this evening
 in St J0seph's T. A. rooms the mana
 gers will make arrangements for se- 1 curing other grounds for the opening I games on next Sunday.
 Last season, the City Amateur league turned into the coffers of the Waterbury club something like $1,2OO, | which was all velvet to the team. as
 without amateur ball the directors
 know the Sabbath would go by with
 out their making cent as profession al baseball on Sunday was not allowed in this city last season and is not like
 ly to be this.
 When this season rolled round. the managers of the City league were very desir0us of securing better terms and after dickering with the owners of the grounds, it was decided that the terms this year would be GO per cent for the amateurs and 40 per cent for the ground owners.
 The league was to have opened last Sunday but at the final moment the president of the City league was in- formed that the Waterbury team wished to meet the Independents on that day, so the managers consented to postpone their opening until the coming Sunday. Now 1t seems as though the Waterbury club would like to have the season postponed in- definitely, perhaps under the impress sion that if the Amateurs do not play at Rockville. professional ball might be brought in, at least that is the opinion of the City league managers.
 One of the managers had the fol- lowing to say of the meeting with Mir Strobel last evening:
 .'We called on Mir Strobel and met with frosty reception. We asked him about the contract and he replied that under no conditions would he sign it. He declared that he was kept too busy with various things while Sunday ball was being played at Rockville and under no conditions would he allow the gates of State league park to be opened for Sunday ball.
 Mir Strobel was asked this morning If he had anything to say aB0ut the matter and he replied: T have noth- ing to say about the affair and the matter Is now in the hands of Mana ger Durant."
 The meeting for the City league managers has been called for 9 o'clock this evening.

UMPIRES MEET.
Session Held at Hotel Garde With
 Supervisor Yesterday.

Hartford April 25.-John F. Ken nedy, chief of the umps of the Con necticut league of baseball clubs, had conference with the staff at the Hotel Garde yesterday afternoon. By special invitation of the chief Pres ident w. J. Tracy of the league was present and heard the weighty prob- lens discussed. The chief supplied the umps with copies of the manual and the rules were gone ever, section by section. until each one was letter perfect. There are several knotty points ill the rules this year, but when the chief asked if all thorough ly understood the rules, every ump raised his right hand.
 Empires Kennedy, Mackey and Bligh attended the conference. Char lie Kennedy, the fourth member of the staff umpired the Amherst game yesterday and he was excused from attending. It will be remembered that at the conference last year the chief spoke at some length upon his ideas of having the umpifes sober when they went out upon field In previous years there have been um- pires who worked in game who looked as if they had been taking too much.
 The new rules provide that the um- pires shall be paid by the home man. agement after every game.
 The schedule for tomorrow and 
 Friday-Springfield at Holyoke, Hartford at Waterbury, Bridgeport 1t New Haven, New London at Nor wich.
