RAIN STOPS GAME.

New York. July 22-The White Sox
and the Highlanders were prevented
from finishing out their skirmish at
the hilltop grounds today by an Ill
timed showed of rain. The weather
man turned on the water spout just
long enough to wet things up good and
in few minutes again the sun was
shining. Umpire Evans had already
called off the game when the sun came
back and announced two for tomorrow.
Moxfe Manuel and Joe Lake had been
selected to do the pitching for their
teams in today's game. The contest
started off just a few inches ahead of
an on-coming storm and only one
round could be played before the rain
began to fall in copious quantities. One
hit had been made off each in the open
ing inning. lsbell got the hit for the
Sox and Moriarity made good for the
locals.

It's mean shame that a train sched-

the West Side yesterday. With the
score all. and the champs about to
arise in their wrath and finish out the
twelfth inning, Umpire KLEIN called the
whole thing off as both teams had to
catch the rattlers for the east. Up to
this oratorical point there had been
thrills and the reverse for the assem-
bled ones.
Those Cubs looked about all in when
the Squads put a run across in the

game in the first half of the second
inning. Herman had gone to first
through being hit. He started for
second when Catcher Erickson dropped
a ball. but the throw beat Herman, and
he ran out of the line and slid past
second. Before he had crawled back to
the base Buemiller touched him with
the ball, but Bush called him safe.
Buemiller made a kick and was or
dered out Of the game. Ferguson. who
was on the bench. went on TO the field
and make vigorous protest, and after
a short. heated talk Bush attempted TO
hit Ferguson. The latter retailiated,

GLOOM IN AMERICAN CAMP.

The athletes from over the seas had
strongly cherished hopes of repeating
yesterdays grand record making a
clean sweep in the track events but a

calculations. Walker broke the tape
in what IS considered the most i'm
portant event in the Olympic games, the
100-meter dash, short two feet in
front of J. A. Rector, the University of

thing Nelson and Joe Cans. scheduled
for Labor Day at Ely. has been called
