COLLEGE GAMES.
Holy Cross Shut Out the Amherst
 Aggies Yesterday.

Worcester, June 6.-Massachusetts Agricultural college failed to get a hit off Foley yesterday afternoon and lost to Holy Cross, 3 to l.. Foley was wild as a hawk and nearly always was in the hole, but the Aggies show led little ability to hit and the young ster got away with no-hit game, be- sides flaming eight opponents. How ever, the Aggies got men enough on bases, Foley passing seven and hitting one, but the timely drives that pro- duce runs were always wanting. Cobb pitched a fine game, showing lack of |control only in one inning, the eighth, when hit followed by two bases on balls, and hit batter produced run.
 The Worcester collegians scored first blood in the second inning, when O'Rourke's three-bagger to deep left scored Stevens, who got life on |O'Donnelrs boot. M. A. c. evened things up in the fourth when Hilton walked and tried for third from first while Barry was throwing O'Grady out at the initial sack. Carney had him easy at third, but he threw the ball mile and Hilton cantered home with the tying run.
 Hits by Dowd and Stevens, coupled with a fielder's choice and a couple of stolen bases by Carney, put Holy Cross in the lead again in its half of the fourth Cobb played excellent ball for the visitors, fielding his posi- tion fast and clean, O'Rourke's ail around work excelled for Holy Cross.

sEMI-PRoF GAMES.
New Haven Team Has an Opinion, Sc
 Have the Independents.

It is just possible that the In- dependents of this city will be matched to meet either the Tigers or Tuxedoes of New Haven within the near future. A sporting man from New Haven yesterday made the statement that either one of those teams could defeat the Independents. Captain George Mulligan of the To- cal team at once offered to bet $100 to $75 that the Independents were the winners, if such contest was arranged and he also stipulated that the winner take all the gate re- ceipts as well. Ringers are to be barred on both sides and the Inde- pendents will present the following lineup if the game is arranged: Slavin c, Slosher and Carmody p, Mulligan 1b, Campion 2b, Henebry 5b, Edmonds ss, Lawlor If, Legge of and Noonan If. If the New Havener means business, all he has to do is to put little of the mazuma and it will be speedily covered.
 The Waterbury Independent base ball team left on the 10:5S train for. Torrington this morning, to meet the Coe Brass company baseball team and no doubt this will be battle royal as these two teams are great rivals. Manager Edward Curley of the Independents has arr ranged for series of five games with Coe Brass and the locals in- tend to duplicate their record of last season when they shut out Coe Brass in two games and defeated them three out of the four games played. Fritz Henebry has joined the Independents and will be on the field to-day, while Slosher and Car mody will do the twirling.
 In the greatest game ever decided on Torrlngton League park dia- mond. Coe Brass yesterday afternoon defeated Moore's Invincibles of Dan bury, to 0. Not a visitor reached second throughout the struggle. Kid" Wade, who occupied the rub Der for the -.at town aggregation. was scarcely less effective than Burke. In the second inning Coe Brass gathered in three singles, but not a run resulted. The visitors pulled of three difficult double plays, all on the spectacular order, and Joe Burke figured in a similar play for the home club. The game promised to go into extra innings. Each side was being retired without threaten ing to dent the pan until the eighth, when. with one runner retired. Gil martin made his second safe drive. It went by Kelley and the runner landed on third. C. Brimble placed a pretty single pas. third and "GilD counted. Gilmartin was easily the star. His sensational stop in the sixth inning, on which he retired a runner at second, was the finest play ever witnessed on League park. He was also strong with the willow!i carrying on the honors in this de- partment with Baldwin and May nard. Danbury had three errors but only that by Kelley was costly. Bar ", despite the fact that he had al wide throw, put up a fine game at short field for the visitors. Other features of the exhibition, aside from the brilliant work of both slab artists, we're Maynard coach in the seventh and GIlmartin's handling of Sweeney's short fly in the ninth.

GUARANTEE SENT BACK.
For Game That Trinity Forfeited to
 Wesleyan.

An interesting after bit of news of the Trinity Wesleyan game at Mid detown last Saturday, which resulted in Trinity leaving the field, is that Wesleyan sent Trinity the guarantee of almost $1O0, although Trinity had forfeited the game, and had no title to the guarantee. Trinity sent back the guarantee. As a result of this little interchange of courtesy it is probable that athletic relations will not be broken off. but that the old friendly rivalry will prevail.

SHIPPERS Get THE best OF It
Speer Continues Injunction
Against Railroads
HE REFUSES TO DISSOLVE SAME
Raps the Lines for Not Offering to
Contradict or Explain Any Of the
Recent Evidence Offered by the
Macon Complainants.

Mount Airy, Ga.--Judge Speer has
granted an interlocutory decree in
the railroad freight rate case, declin-
ing to dissolve the restraining order
in force, and continuing the same
in full effect until the further order
Of the court.
Continuing Judge Speer said:
THE decree will also provide in
effective terms that accomplishments
and others who have the right to
intervene shall, within ten days,
make complaint to the interstate
commerce commission; ask that body
If necessary that It may take the. in
itiative in this investigation; If need
be, fix the maximum. rates, and give
such other aid and assistance to the
parties in controversy and to the
court as in the Judgment of the
commission may seem in accordance
with the law and the rights involv-
ed
In his decision Judge Speer says:
ut is most significant fact that
while there were in attendance on
the hearing at Mount Airy large
number of counsel md railway off,
Gals of great experience, extensive
knowledge and high rank, no sort
of effort was made to contradict
or explain any of the evidence offer
ed by the compliments. The court
was furnished neither with affidavits,
oral testimony, or explanations re-
lating to the grave and serious COM
painants set forth in the complain
ants bill and supported by proof.
The respondents were content to re-
ly on their demurrer, and the argu-
ment was restricted to the following
points:
First, that the court had no juris
diction; second, that the interstate
commerce commission has no juris-
diction with regard to these rates;
and third, that if the new rates are
put into effect it would merely re-
store the rates which existed prior
to 1905 and that such rates are rea-
sonable. The last point is a ques-
ton of fact, not in the record, nor
II the pleadings and proof justified a
consideration of this assertion would
1t appear material to the present in
quiry at this stage of this case"
Judge Speer then cites numerous
presidents, including the famous
Tiff case, and ends by continuing
the injunction in force
