SECOND POLO
 MATCH TODAY

New York, June 5-A moist east wind with occasional sprinkling of rain early today caused another postponement of the two polo games to be played between the English and American teams for honors and the championship cup before the Englishmen depart for the coronation on Saturday. Nevertheless both teams did an hours hard work this afternoons
 Interest in the match has increased perceptibly since last week and the de- mand for reservations on the field ex- ceeds it's capacity, while good locations are at a premium The social element figures extensively in the first match, but the spectators want to see the game and not to renew acquaintances.
 Reports from the English and American camps were assuring. There were no cripples in either and the two command- CTS declared again today that the battle lines in the second match would be the same as on Thursday.
 Betting still favored the Americans with odds of to 2. or to 3. No long shots were offered after the scare of the first match.

yesterday afternoon Saturday, in the Dell, but the umpires did not make them. The rotten decisions came from the spec tators. In the eighth inning Wiseman hit drive down the left field line which Init just outside the chalk Umpire Hart very properly called the doctor back, which led to an outburst from the bleachers. Hart was immediately dubbed robber and other cognomens equally indigestible, Wiseman ambled back and got a clean hit to right, which got away from Johnson, and then Doctor tried to stretch 1t into a two-pagger, but was tagged out on Johnsons perfect throw. The ball beat Doc back to the base, yet when he was called out another roar of dissatisfaction rent the air. So it goes in baseball. Whenever the home team loses somebody wants to put the bur- den on the umpires. Why not put it where it belongs?''
 The Barons are good road players. Wherever they have been this season they have made a big hit both with the fans and scribes. All kinds of bouquets have been thrown at them on the present trip. Molesworth made a decided hit at Memphis and the whole team meets the approval of the Volunteer fans. Elliott is an especial favorite and Large Will liam McGilvray is not forgotten.
 Trough will probably open against the Lookouts tomorrow. The big fellow should win. He wifi be followed by Maxwell and Bert should annex his game with any kind of luck. Wagner will probably be given another showing and he is to he reckoned with but what's the use?
 The second match of the International Polo tournament was postponed yester- day on account of wet weather. It will be played today.
 The Cincinnati directors yesterday passed a vote of confidence In Manager Griffith and announced their intention of spending money for some more play CTS. The Reds need 'em.
