The attendance throughout the Cen
trail Association on Memorial day
amounted to 11,403, as against 16,450
for the previous year.
Umpire Lippert played ball in the
Western Association twelve or thir-
teen years ago. This was when Quin-
ICY was in the circuit.
Quincy Herald. President Harry F.
Hofer, of the Quincy Baseball Assoc
citation, received telegram this morn
ing from Hugh Jennings. manager OF
the Detroit American league team, re-
questing him to purchase s25 floral
offering to be placed on the coffin of
the late Perry Works, father of Raj h
Wc-ks. the Detroit pitcher, who died
YESTERDAY.
A dispatch from Ottumwa says:
Contrary to the belief that Charley
Brand would not wear an Ottumwa
uniform after Sunday, the genial util-
| ity PLAYER accompanied Manager Egan
/ and his squad of ballists to Kewanee
Sunday night. The several deals
which Manager Egan has considered
relative to farming Brand until such
time as the Ottumwa club would need
/ his active services have all fallen
/ through. and for the time being at
/ least monthly checks with Ned Egans
name. signed to them will go to Brand
4 The latest deal relating to Brand was
! with Manager Geier, but the player
refused to go TO Burlington. Realiz
1 ing that he was too valuable man
! to lose outright, Manager Egan took
/ Brand to Kewanee with the rest of
1 the club
An explanation comes from Quincy
to the effect that the Quincy news
! paper men have not been guilty OF
abusing the ball park score bulletin.
! but that the complaint was of the
] newspaper men throughout the league.
Burlington can plead not guilty. The
| score bulletins at the local park are
/ so poorly. chalked up that one can
with difficulty make them out. Few
spectators pay any attention to the
/ scores as placed in the local park. and
the down town bulletin boards do not
get the scores until long after the
games are printed

gems BATTED in
Ninth and Won
Turned Defeat into Victory with the
Indians, After Battle Had Gone
Up to the Last
Session.
FINAL COUNT WAS 2 TO !
Quincy Talies were Made After Two
Men were out-HiIdebrand the
Champ ciouter, with Three
safe Drives.

QUINCY, H., June by an attack
that was sickening to the Indians,
Manager Myers and his stalwart Vet
Grams put on grandstand finish in
the last half of the ninth inning in
yesterdays game and won by score
OF to l. 1t was sure a great ending
for within very few moments after
two men were out a threatened defeat
was turned into a victory by some of
the foxiest baseball that has been
seen in Quincy for long time Clarke
was driven across the plate for the
winning run after it had been tied up
by Cavanaugh with the assistance of
two sacrifice hits off the ends of My
ers' and Rouse's bats. 1t caused the
crowd-consisting chiefly of fannies,
1t being ladies day, to nearly go wild.
Up to this time the score stood /
to 0 in favor of the Indians and Man
ager Belt and his band of redskins
thought that they had the contest all
sewed up In a bag and were getting
ready to take it home with them. But
happily for the Quincy fans they were
mistaken. Fer it happened Sensenbach
chose to boot a grounder at a psyche
logical moment which allowed Cava-
naugh to reach first and later to tie
the score. Sir Michael, who had tried
PA" Belts arm once before in tie
game and found it wanting, stole
second and was sacrificed to third
by bunt put down by Manager Myers
who relied upon Rouse putting a long
one to the field. This is the long
boys long suit and he was able to do
1t when called upon. The ball scared
high, into the sky and when it fell it
landed in Reichle's hands in the far
corner of the lot giving Cavanaugh
plenty of time to eavort home with
the run that tied the score.
The Winning Run Moment Later
But the tieing score was not all for
a moment later the one that won
was pushed over. The crowd came
to the rescue of the batters and the
dense cheering had such an effect
on Edlick that he was unable to re-
main steady. Clarke found his first
ball without anything on it and laid
against one that was good for two
bases. Jerger pulled him for walk
and Hartman found one that looked
good for him and hammered it out
TO the right field fence scoring Clarke.
It was all over. During the early
stages of the game ii was all Keo-
kuk's with the locals unable TO get
men around when they We're on bases.
The only chances that the Veterans
had to score were in the fourth and
sixth inings In the fourth Cav.
anaugh was walked and stole second
after two men were out with Myers
following With walk Rouse flew
out to right field Ia the sixth Don
ahue hit safely after Burg had whitfield
and stole second. On Owens ground
er to Sensenbach to short he reache ed

thrown out. Owens stole second anf

him around but the batter struck out

Interest in Morris Case.

in the suspension :. .cutfelder Morris
than any other of the four PLAYERS
Some fans thought it would have
been Vasbinder, but word was re
ceived here today ,ss.. -..-orris has
been compelled to depart for his
home in Evanston with bad case of
malaria fever. Belt stated over the
long distance TO Secretary Sterne
that the outf-e.1sr has not been well
since the season opened. Morris
did not come up to expectations, and
Belts action is looked upon as the
best that could have been made.
However, the manager will be con-
fronted with difficulty if an infieldar
should go bad, as Morris is the only
all around player on the ball cub

Manager Frank Belt is within the
limit with his ball club, sat it has
been necessary for him to dole out
two releases and two suspensions,
one of which carries with it no small
amount of interest.
Pitcher Broadwell, doped out t., go.
has been formally cut loose. as was
also Charles Yaeger, the infielder, who
generously helped out the Indians
when Thomas was unable to perform.
The suspensions are Outfelder Morris
and Catcher Cavanaugh.

Edlick on star.

Catcher Cavanaugh will remain in
keokuk until in condition to play.
1t is likely then that Pitcher Edlick
will be cut loose, but hardly before
that time, unless some other backstop
is enrolled The Gate City stated
last night that Edlick would be re-
tanned and that statement was cor
roborated by Manager Belt, himself,
this morning. Burch is home, but is
expected to go to Hannibal during
the series which opens there tomor-
row. He has not been well for sew
eral days past.
Belt says that Edlick pitched nice
ball at Quincy yesterday and still
believes that the big fellow has this
