HARTFORD HARD HIT
Baseball Directors Decide Against
 Leaders In Two Cases.

Hartford, Aug. 17,---At the meeting league held here to- night, but two mat ters were taken up, the disputed game between Springfield and Hartford, when Springfield refused to play, and the Hartford-New Britain game in New Britain last Thursday
 In the Springfield Hartford game the directors ordered that the game be played. This action by the directors raises the suspension of Manager O'Neil, who had been suspended for the rest of the season for taking his team from the field, and also removes the s1O0 fine which was imposed upon him, The trouble arose over the refusal of Manager ONeil to allow his team to play If Rorty was allowed to um- plre, and his ordering the team from the field.
 The New Britain Hartford game was awarded to New Britan. The dispute in this game was over the Interpretation of ground rules made previous to the game, which allowed two bases for a ball hit into the crowd. ball knock ed into the crowd by New Britain player was claimed by that team as be- Ing good for two bases. Hartford con tended that 1t didn't go into the crowd. The directors decided that the ball did go into the crowd, and acted according

FOR MIR. LILLEY? NO!
Waterbury Manufacturer De- clares He Has No Intention
 of Voting for Him.
DENIAL OF MIR. TAYLOR
Man Dragged Into Submarine Inves- tigatlon Makes Plain His
 Attitude.
Special to the Journal-couriero

Waterbury. Aug l7.--Franklyn IA. Taylor of the Randolph-Clowers com pany of this city, who was so grossly misused by Lilley in the submarine in- vestigation will not vote for the Wa terbury man if he k nominated for governor Mir. Taylor came out will irgly with a definite statement to this effect today to Journal-Courier cor respondent.
 The only excuse, he declared, that he Waterbury Republican, Mir. Lilley's pa- per. had for supposing he would vote for Lilley was a statement he made that so far as he was concerned the Republican would assuredly win its bet"
 Thie bet was referred to In the news columns of the Waterbury American last Friday as follows:
 The New Haven Journal Courier feel. that Congressman Lilley grossly mis used two prominent citizens during tht submarine investigation, wherea tn. Waterbury Republican offers 10 bet tht Journal-C Courier the price of 3s, 300 co. pies that Messrs. John P. Kellogg ani Franklyn A. Taylor--presumably tho two prominent ci,lzens referred to- will vote for I.illey. Mir Taylor saic this noon that SO far as he was con, cerned the Republican would assuredll win its bet.
 Mir Taylor admitted making this statement which was put out in "Lil leyesque" style with the hope Of giv, ing the impression to readers that he Taylor, would vote for Lilley As g matter of fact. MT. Taylor stated yes. terday that he did not intend to give any such impression and the way the story was put out convinced him that the hand of Lilley was In 1t. He hat his own meaning and Is not explainine if now.
 In closing the interview, MT Taylor said: T have no intention of voting fol Jilley."

BRYAN DIDN'T SELL OUT
Denies That He Got s2O0,000 for
 Ousting Colonel Guffey.

Fairview. Lincoln. Neb., Aug, It. The most important happening at Fairview o-day was the emphatic de- nial given by w. J Bryan to a story printed in Pittsburg saying that he had sold out" to the Kerr faction of the Pennsylvania democracy in order to accomplish the defeat of Colonel James M. Guffey for national commit teeman. The price alleged to figure in the transaction was $200.0 900 as a campaign contribution. The charge Is said to have been made that MT Bry- an made good" but that MT. Kerr and his supporters had not come for ward with the money. MT. Bryan de- clared that he had never heard of the offer or agreement and he suggested that the proper persons to consult were members of the committee on credentials which decided the Penn sylvana contest.

BALLOON ON SECRET TRIP
German Army Alrship Sails Mysteri-

Berlin, Aug. IA military dlrigible balloon made an ascension at 10 o'clock this evening at Tegal The military of ficials maintained silence respecting the intentions of those in charge of the balloon but 1t Is rumored that they will try to remain in the air throughout the night possibly making voyage to Hamburg and return.
 There was weird scene at the bal loon shed just prior to the ascent. The public were kept out of the parade grounds, which was in total darkness and around which a guard of armed sentries had been thrown. The only evidences that an ascension was about to be made were the whlrring of the motors and the sharp commands that were issued. Finally a great yellow envelope was seen for moment. but 1t quickly disappeared into the heavily clouded sky, The only sign of It's passage as 1t moved of was the bright rays of a searchlight on the end plat | form.

PROF. WURTS PEACEMAKER
Stops Lively Bout Between Newsboys
 in Church Street.

Two newsboys who sell their wares at Church and Crown streets got into an argument late yesterday afternoon as to which was the best seller, the Woild or the Joinal, and the kind words that at first passed between the two finally led to blows. Tn order to have the matter settled to their mutual satisfaction the boys. one decidedly red-headed and somewhat smaller than the other, retired behind the protrud- ing wall of the Connecticut Savings bank and began to pummel each other. A large crowd collected and 1t looked as though the fight would go to a fin- ish when young man separated the fighters. They got together again how ever in moment and the crowd again collected. Prof. John Wurts of the, Yale law school happened along soon after the boys started their second round and attempted to stop the bout by kind words This was no place for words, kind or otherwise. as the pro- lessor soon found out and he took 1t upon himself to Interfere more strenu- ously. He clutched the trusty left of the faxen haired youth and started to walk away with him but the boy wrig
 gled free and again made for his op- ponent. Prof. Wurts was right there and deshng through the crowd he again grabbed the youth and hustled him down Church street safe dis tence The crowd cheered, whether for the youth or the professor, by islanders were unable to determine His duty done Prof. Wurts ambled up Church street, satisfied.
