Rochester to beat Newark
out. All ball players hate
Newark" ia the Buffalo Eve
ming Times. We suppose the b.
sons will endeavor to lose as many
games to the Hustlers this year as
they did last year in their efforts
to help Rochester down Newark. A
similar feeling exists in Baltimore
against Newark. We suppose the
Orioles will play just as hard trying to
beat Newark as they played bad ball
against Providence two years ago,
helping to bump Newark out of second
place. Joe Kelley, of Toronto, is to be
congratulated, He plays to beat every
team, and is therefore a good sport.

Did Arthur Irwin or Larry Sutton
discover Bert Daniels. the Yankee ball
player? GEORGE FRANCKE.
Here is the case: Larry Sutton had
Daniels, among others, signed to a con-
tract last ear, but the Carolina Asso-
citation team he was sending the man
to would not pay him some money that
was due him and Larry didn't send
out Daniels, who went into the Tri-
: State League, to be signed by Mr..

Sammy Kelly, manage of Jack
Goodman, the New York lightweight,
we learn, has become a benedict. Last
Sunday, at Rec Bank, Sammy allowed
a Red Bank girl the privilege Of sign
ing herself Mrs. Kelly Good luck to
you, Sammy.
Well, the Cubs are now sure of the
%,pennant in the National League and
the Athletics in the American.
If Newark only finishes ahead we'll
feel proud, because they form the trio
we picked to win.

= w. G.. H.-A letter must say some-
thing before it is worth publication.
Your second letter has no more license
to be published han the first, and
your arguments are just as weak. We
didn't publish your first letter for the
further reason that we were sure IL
you had read It over you would have
never sent II to us.-Ed.
Jim Mcveegh, the local has
returned from AlIenhurst, where he
found that the place was too crowded
for him. Eddie Wood has secured a
, semi-final bout at the Lehigh A. c.
in New York tonight. This Mcveigh Is
a good boy.
If Knockout Brown beats Willie
Beecher next week we're satisfied that
the blonde little New York fighter is
some pumpkins as a lightweight.
Q .
To the Sporting Editor OF the Evening Star:
Dear Sir-A bets that Johnny (Dots)
Miller, of the Pittsburg Baseball Club.
accepted his first thirty chances with
out an error in the year of 1909. He
also claims that he a read your
paper at that time and saw that you
had published that Miller had accepted
his thirty chances without an error. B
bets he made an error before he ac-
cepted thirty chances. Kindly a wer
as soon as possible, and greatly l. slige,
J. M. THORNTON.
U. S. 8. Vermont, Hampton Roads, Va.
In looking up the files of the STAR
of 1909 we dnd that Miller did not
make an error in his first forty one
chances. A. therefore, wins.-Ed.
To the Sporting Editor Of the Evening Star:
Thu Newark team was badly treated
Saturday afternoon on the Speedway
Oval in a County League game be-
tween Irvington and Newark. The
Newark boys should nave had the
game but the umpire did not give
them Justice. I have witnessed many
games on the Speedway oval, and it
has always been the same; no Justice
to the visiting team. | should think
the president of the league would look
over his umpires. I like to see the
Irvington boys win their games, but
let then win them fairly. I think
something should be done to stop such
unfairness. I have seen all the teams
in the league play and will say that I
|. have never seen decisions given out as
they are on the Irvington ground,
Many people have gone away disguised
with the game. A FAN.
To the Sporting Editor of the Evening Star:
In answer to a question in Monday
evenings edition of the STAR 1 wish
