PLAYERS BID ADIEU
 TO NEW HAVEN Local Ball Tossers Leave for Their Abodes Bone, Gam eron and Loomis to
 Cruise Sound.
NEW HAVEN IN THIRD PLACE
Paige Goes Immediately to Giants Simmons Will Follow in Spring Corcoran and Sherwood
 in New Haven.

The closing of the New Haven base ball season brings with 1t a sad feeling of regret. for the departure of those diamond heroes whose maneuvers on the greensward have been followed throughout the season by local baseball enthusiasts, leaves behind recollection that cannot easily be erased from ones memory. The brilliant plays of some, the misplays of others, still have their place In the loyal fans minds. Tho mighty clouts of Simmons. the grace ful catches of Zacher, the consistent playing of the whole nine, the ups and downs of the team. the sickness of Duggan, the jumping of Plelss, all will be remembered when those sturdy ones return to battle once more on the prairie.
 Some of them will not be back to rep resent our city, probably travelling in faster company. Simmons will be given trial with the Giants and if his ter rife slugging habit sticks to him, as 1t Is likely to do. George will be, do- ing great stunts with the pennant chas, CTS. Even, If it is not for our nine that he will do good work still we will feel we'll pleased in his success, for many time has his opportune swat won a contest for Bone's men. Paige left yes- terday for the metropolis and will im- medintely join McGraw's men.
 If Zacher does not land in faster company, he will return and lead a chances for championship. as was the case with Hartford That only showed what management the New Haven people were receiving, when Manager George Bone and Owner Cameron ab- solutely refused 10 manifest any sym pathy for the Senators by allowing them to win last Fridays game. In, stead the players were ordered to play to win In order that the spectators might be satisfied,
 Messrs. Bone and Cameron who are the sole owners of the local club. took charge of 1t when Lush gave up the management and Weidenheimer and Daley became financially unable to back it. At that time the team was making a bee line for the lower berths and was In sixth place. Bone with the assistance of Cameron. Immediately found the weak spots in the nine and started to remedy them. By urging the players to do their best, Bone landed the team safely in third place, despite the many forecasts and visions of sec ing the Elm city nine keeping com pany with the tailenders,
 Such management fig worthy of much commendation even though the team did not land in close vicinity of the in- itial place The club will be owned by the same management next season and no doubt the fans will turn out in full force and gladly give their support to the local nine.
 A ten days cruise will be enjoyed by chief of police of West Haven, when they leave In Camerons and Looms' yacht Wednesday. They will cruise about the Sound and will go to New York and probably witness the Giants and Pirates play the latter part of the week.
 Indications are that there will be nc post season games. Members of the first four clubs are gradually depart. Ing for their various winter abodes and 1t looks as If the whole thing was Q sham. Nearly all the members of the l local team have bid farewell to the Elm City, Andy Herbst going tc Brooklyn, where he works as a printe, on one that city's newspapers Forgut went back to Providence to sort wool while Havel will manage a grocery store out west.
