Catcher Forrest l.. Cady. of the local
club, who goes to the Boston Ameri-

nity's ire and a fine of 500 has been
levied on him according to several of
the Tiger players.
The trouble between Cady and Nc
Ginnity. which resulted in the fine be-

Cured at Toronto on Monday after the
second game. McGinnity made a wild
pitch which Cady could not reach.
,O'Hara scored from third and the
Leafs won the extra inning game. In
the clubhouse. according to, not only
Newark players, but also members Of
the Toronto team. who say they heard
the alteration, McGinnity told Cady
he was yellow" and wound up by
calling him a vile name. Cady went
at McGinnity with c%lenched fists, and
Joe, it is said, by eye-witnesses.
grabbed a pair of spiked shoes to hold
off the enraged catcher. Cady was then
Informed that he would be fined $50 on
next payday, and replied that he did

August 20 is the late for exercising
options. The Newark Club will lose
Outflelder Harry Bailey to the New
York Americans. Bailey Is now his
home in Shawnee, o.. suffering from
an attack of appendicitis. Willis
Shontz goes to the Giants, if they wish
to exercise their option. The Newark
management intends to recall Syawne
and Cleary from Erie. The Iron Man
will also have to stand ready to pro-
duce Pitcher Joe Jenkins, also with
Erie, in case the Giant management
requires the ex-Bengal playing with
Billy Gilbert. Jack Dalton was pur-
chased outright from Brooklyn, and
canont be recalled.
The unexpected happened again in
baseball yesterday. Anyone trying to
place a bet before the double-header
yesterday in Toronto and had the in
formation hat Charley Smith would
pitch the first game and Willis Shont
the second would have placed a roll
on Smith at big odds md demanded as
much on Shontz. Smith had won four
in q row while Shontz was an unknown
quantity.
II o became evident that Smith
was not in form and he was knocked
out of the box in the first game. The
| Tigers we're walloped by a score of
SO. In the second game Shontz pitched
shut-out ball all the way and the
heavy-hitting Leafs made three scat
tered hits, Newark winning, 10, by
hammering MCKINLEY out of the box
in two innings.
Louden had a home run in the first
with two on bases. but the official
scorer called 1t a three-bagger on his
own rule. He claimed that Kocher
should have touched Bill sliding into
the plate. Kocher tried to get Bill but
failed and went after him after Bill
had tagged the plate.
Boice's pitching after he relieved
Smith In the first was as good as
Shontz's against the heavy-hitting
Leafs. and he also had the honor of
scoring Newark's first run in the
eighth, Dalton's double driving him
home. Boice went in cold and was
scored or once. but the Leafs were
helpless after he warmed up.
