special to The Washington Herald.

Cleveland. Ohio. June 1.-The Nationals
struck town to-day in the midst OF a
three days rain, and consequently there
was not a chance of a game with the
Mans this afternoon; in fact. IL is doubt
full if a game will be played tomorrow,
and it will take some good. hot weather
to dry up the field sufficiently 10 allow
contest on Friday.
Whenever the first game does take
place Oberlin viii pitch for Washington
and either Mitchell or Falkenberg for
Cleveland. Mitchell is the youngster who
was so rudely treated by the Nationals
when the Maps visited Washington two
weeks ago. FaIkenberg is pitching the
best ball of any of the Cleveland pitch
ers, and 1t really looks as If he would
be the man assigned to the task Of pug
cling his old team mates.
The Nationals are stopping at the Co
lonial Hotel this trip instead OF the Eu-
cid. The reason therefor is that the Ma
tionaI Undertakers Association is having
g, convention at the Euclid, and not wish
ing to have his players mistaken for
subjects" MeAleer took them TO the Co.
lonial He himself did not linger long
after he found there would be no chance
for a game to-day Instead. he took the
first train for Youngstown. where he VIII

The remainder of the team put in the

Elberfeld taking time TO visit a physi-
clan TO have his damaged digit dressed.

BASEBALL NOTES
AND COMMENT.

Pitcher Suggs. OF the Reds. is another
player who has made good since being
passed up by Hughie Jennings.
Dave Altizer. the veteran of the Philip
pines, is hitting at better than 800 for
Minneapolis In the American Association.
With each victory of Clarke Griffith s
Reds, the entire populace of Cincin-
matt yells itself hoarse. The Cincys are
a loyal bunch of rooters.
Illinois. from which university so many
star baseball players have come, has won
the championship in the Western Big
Eight conference.
Pittsburg fans are waiting for the
Pirates to get their stride. The steel
team followers expect to see a long
string of victories nailed 10 the Pirate
ship shortly.
Out in Ohio there is a pitcher named
La Toilette. who is declared to be the
real insurgent when it comes to steam
ing them over and bathing opponents
His RamesAke in the Senate has plenty
of pepper.
Hughie Jennings has the reputation Of
being the best copy manufacturing man.
ager in the big leagues Hughie always
has a story, and loves TO see his name
in the press. Even his antics in the
coaching box show that he is his own
press agent.
Down IN the South Atlantic League
they are raising a stir because of the
no farming rule. This year 1t is against
the rules to use a player who is not
the absolute property of the club. This
makes It impossible for club to secure
aid from another
To the late Ed Delehanty, Hughie
Duffy. manager of the White Sox, pays
the following tribute: 'Delehanty was
the hardest hitter known. In stopping
a liner from his bat you took a chance
of going to hospital with a mangled
hand or losing the entire arm"
Listen TO what the winds from the
West bring to the ears Of fair Phil
adelphia. Roger Bresnahan has offered
each of his players $500 in real kale. if
they finish one-two. Ra1ah won't lose
any large amounts. but his team ought
to be fighting for the first division along
in September.

As an indication of the force of the
crusade against tuberculosis, the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis, in a bull
letin issued recently points to the fact
that while 535 per cent. of the ex-
penditures for tuberculosis in 1909
were made from public resources, ap-
preparations made for 1910 indicate
that over rs per cent. of the money
to be spent this year will be from fed
eral, state, city and county funds. In
1909, out of the $3.50, 62150 spent for
the prevention and treatment of tu-
berculosis, s4,362,75O.O3 was spent
from public money, and $3,S17, S71.47
from funds voluntarily contributed
For the carrying on of state, federal
and municipal tuberculosis work in
1910, over 100000 has been appre-
priated. Of this sum, the state legis-
latures have granted $4,100,000, the
municipal and county bodies, $685.
