No New Plays
in Base Ball,
Says Veteran
Dan Brouthers Declares Players
Worked Bunts and Steals
Twenty Years Ago.

NEW YORK. Oct. How many new
plays have been discovered in base ball in
the last twenty years2" asked the in
quisltive man OF Dan Brouthers.
Il don't know OF any real new ones"
replied the veteran. They don't do much
that they didn't do when l played ball.
There is q little difference. Some moves
are made with more frequency and team
work is more common among clubs"
How about the bunt?'
Nothing to that There's a man coach
ing every day for the New York Base Ball
club who twenty years ago could bunt
more skillfully than most of the players
on the field today and as skillfully as the
experts, for all that l can see."
You mean Latham. we may take it?"
Il certainly do. This squeeze play which
they talk so much about 1 saw happen
on the ball field, although the batter used
to chop at the ball. rather than bunt it."
How about the delayed steal?"
Nothing to it. Old players used to do
1t, and they used to say that they were
blamed idiots for taking such chances on
the bases. They weren't so critical then
about picking plays and putting fancy
names on them. If anything happened out
of the ordinary-that is, the ordinary run
OF luck-they'd say after the game was
over, That was a streak of luck and the
club was fortunate to get away with a
victory. That's what we used to get.
None Of your delayed steals and sacrifice
killers and such things"
But there wasn't any sacrifice"
mo, there wasn't. That is exactly of
the manner that 1t is made today, although
when managers saw the trend of the
| times, that base ball was getting more
and more to be game in which one run
would be a great factor in winning, they
] trained their clubs to go after the sacri-
flee as much as any other play. Yet /
| have known times when we used to play
out in the lake cities when we sacrificed.
Did 1t deliberately, too. No picayune luck
about it Simply jumped in and took a
chance on getting out to get another fellow
| around. That's yeers ago, and that's why
1 tell you that there are no new plays.
They're all old, every one Of them, and it's
only the frequency of some of these So
called plays, against their scarcity years
gone by, which induces imaginative folks
to think that they see something that we
didn't know"
Some folks say that they have better
| base runners now than they did years
ago"
''rhey do, do theyT How old are they
Did they make their acquaintance with
base ball since 1890, or have they been in Il
or seen since 1880? Better base stealers
Ell? Bring on a few. Where is there one
better than Ned Williamson? How about
Harry Stovey? What of Buck Ewing and
Mike Kelley and Fogarty and about forty
others that 1 could name If 1t were worth
while2 Better base stealers? Let me tel
you something. When people say anything
like that you tell them to stop reading
these romances about base ball and gC
somewhere and borrow-for you can't buy
them--a few copies OF the older editions Of
the base ball guides and then come around
and tell us what they found in them II

their curiosity as to whether they are able
TO qualify in the preliminary round. The
executive committee Of the association has
full power, in its absolute discretion TO
limit the field to 1G0 and determine on the
best information at hand those OF unde-
serving rank or skill No player thus ex-
cluded shall be entitled to return OF the
fee sent in with his entry
Il rather fancy that some such regulation
would serve to keep out the near duffer,
and by trying the experiment one would
deter any really good player from sending
in his entry. OF course 1t is not desirable
to do anything which would result In too

that Ramsden did not enjoy several SEES

DARTMOUTH MAY HAVE MARTIN
Crack May Help the Track and Field
. Teams.

HANOVER, N. H., oct There is a
strong probability that the track and field
forces of Dartmouth college, which are
coached by Harry L. Hillman, jr., will be
augmented this fall by the presence of Bill
Martin, the wonderful sprinter of the Seat
tie Athletic club. Martin gained his ath-
letic spurs last year by winning the senior
national 10O-yard championship in 0:10b
from field composed of w. F. Dawbarn
of Princeton and New York Athletic club
w. w. Day. University of Illinois, and w.
F. Hamilton of the Chicago Athletic asso-
citation. There is but one condition that
can keep Martin away from Dartmouth.
but that is quite an important one-exam-
nations. The Seattle flier is now here to
take the Dartmouth tests. He is a grad
uate of Whitman academy, one of the
crack preparatory schools of the Pacific
coast. so he should have little trouble in
matriculating at Dartmouth.

BILLIARD SCHEDULE IS MADE
Experts Cause Formation of League
and Circuit for Games.

and Circuit for Games.
NEW YORK, oct. Lowing to the efforts
of Jack Doyle. Maurice Daily and like
champions of the game OF billiards. the
great indoor game promises TO come into
its own in the very near future. Unlike
many others who have attempted to build
up interest in this sport the men who are
now furnishing the impetus to the amateur
phase of billiards are progressing along
we'll defined plans which can have but one
culmination-success
The formation of the National Billiard
league and the adoption of a schedule
founded along the lines Of a list Of dates
drafted for some professional base ball
circuit are steps in the right direction. The
fact that eight of the largest cities in the
east and west are united in this organiza-
ton is convincing proof that the project
of establishing interest in billiards jumped
into reality with one tremendous bound as
a starter. The league includes Kansas
City, St Louis, Chicago, Pittsburg, Phila-
delphia, Boston, Brooklyn and New York.
This week three-cushion play began in
all of these cities to decide just what single
player will represent them as the travelling
player. According to the rules of the Ma
tional Billiard league that body itsalf shall
decide upon the amateur status Of the play
ers. The expenses will be betrayed by the
teams they represent, but positively no sal
aries will be paid.
There will be but one travelling player to
represent each city, but there is no limita-
ton attached to the number of contestants
who may represent the home academy IN
the three nights matches of fifty points
each at three-cushion billiards. In other
words, IL one local amateur falls to show
anything against the visitor in the first
nights play another can be pitted against
him the succeeding night the only requisite
being that the player be in good standing
as an amateur,
At least $1,000 worth of prizes will be
distributed among the players of the first,
second, third and fourth teams to finish
in the race. Individual prizes will also be
awarded to those making the highest runs
and highest averages

PROSPECTS AT AMES ARE POOR
Untried Men Make Up Squad and
First Game Only Week Away.


AMES, Ia, Oct 1.-(Special. with
the first game of the season scheduled
for next Saturday and only about twenty
five varsity candidates reporting daily
for practice, prospects for a champion
ship team at Ames are anything but en-
couraging. New and untrted material
however, does not discourage a man like
Coach Williams and for the past two
weeks he has spent the greater part OF
tie time In familiarizing the men with
the new rules.
Trainer Jack Watson has been on the
field since school opened and has the
men in fine condition for the early games.
Assistant Coaches Low and Hubbard
have been working hard with the re-
serves and the way the scrubs" have
held the varsity in the early crlmmages
Is certainly a credit to the assistant
/ coaches.
Elliott, Ketman and Fulton, three OF
Ames' most promising lnemen have not
returned to school and their loss will be
greatly felt by the team. Troeger a last
years tackle, is back In school, but he
has not fully recovered from an injury
received at Drake last season and has
not reported for practice.

last seasons team. has returned &c
school and has been out for practice TN,

ing candidates OF last years freshmen

The visiting Knights who brought along the Danbury band were met at the station by the full platoon of Hamilton Commandery, who had at their head. the Wheeler & Wilson band: As the line of the local Knights approached, the visitors were drawn up along the station platform. The local Knights then drew up along the Adams Express side of the car rage approach to the station, there presenting arms while the full body of the visiting Knights passed before them. The Knights were logged out in their gayest. in uniforms of gold and black, gold and silver mounted swords. and black hats with large flowing plumes.
 After the presentation of arms, the Wheeler & Wilson band assumed the right of way, followed in order by Hamilton Commandery, the Danbury band and finally, the visiting Knights. The procession went over Gold street to Main, to State, to Courtland, to Fairfield, to Broad, to the asylum in Ine Mdsohlc Ienpie.

 New Haven, July 12.-The prosecu- tion will ask this afternoon that Ray mond Maresca, Giuseppe Liberatore, Ferdinando Miccio, Antonio Russo and Vinengo Cirillo, the five men who have variously been said to be Black Hand CTS and White Slavers and who were on trial today in police court on an assault charge be bound over to the Superior Court on the charge of at- tempted murder. Salvatore Bracco, who was cut in the right breast during a struggle with the men, had called at a Water St. house to kidnap, it is alleged, Bracco's stepdaughter, Uun- ziata Ferrara, the woman in the case. He testified during the morning ses- sion to the assault. The girl followed him on the stand and her testimony is expected to convict the men of 8 seri- ous charge.
 An attempt was recently made by some Bridgeport men to kidnap the Ferrara girl, so she could not testify at today's trial.

Germany's Republication of Monroe Doctrine
 Viewed in Washington

Washington. July 12-Though Ger many's seeming repudiation of the Monroe Doctrine is looked upon here this afternoon as a matter of the ut most moment, it is believed that the German Foreign Office acted either hastily or eagerly in issuing it's state ment regarding the Madriz letter. It was pointed out by the State Depart ment that officially the Kaiser's let ter to Madriz had been simply regard ed as a formal communication and not in the light of an attempt on the part of Germany to invade the diplomatic field of the United States in Central America.
 Germany's declaration that she does not regard the United States as be- ing entitled to any special function of supervision over Central American and South American affairs is certain to attract most careful official considera- tion.
 The declaration. is regarded here as verging upon a fiat denial of the Mon roe Doctrine and if Germany attempts to put into practice the prerogatives she thus claims, it is believed that trouble is almost certain to follow
