(Hartford Courant. )

About all the ingredients used in a frst-class baseball mixture were seen at the game in this city yesterday, which Hartford kindly won from Bridgeport in the eleventh, 2 to 1. Herman Shincel put fine finish on the game by belting a ball so hard at RueH that it bounded away from his shins. while Hart hurried home with the run that tied and Lefty High followed him with the winning tally. There must have been about fourteen records of various kinds broken. The Little Girl in Blue made her first ap- pearance of the season and 1t was a good omen for the home pets. Pete Wilson whiffed thirteen of the league leaders, struck out the side two in nings in succession and famed Skip per Eley four times. Eley never touched the ball at all, for once he walked to first.
 The game attracted a. crowd of about 1000 and some of the finest playing of the season was seen. No better pitching has been seen on any diamond than that shown by Wilson and Upham.
 While Wilson struck out about twice as many as Upham. the Bridge the entire work of both men is con- sidered there would be little choice between them. Bridgeport got to Wilson for three hits in the eleventh, one of them being of the scratchy variety. Hartford got two off Upham in the same inning but wicked error by Snyder had much to do with the Bridgeport defeat.
 Wilson was frequently applauded for his fine work and especially for his strikeouts. The fans took much delight in seeing Hey strike out by the wholesale and they also gave Hi Ladd the laugh in the sixth, when Pete had MethuseIah biting at balls a foot away from his bat.
 The fans had to wait until the elev- enth inning before they saw a run and Bridgeport was the first to score. Crook led off in the final inning with a single and Ladd sacrificed him to second. Ruel1 smashed one to left, scoring Crook. Kauff followed with a scratch hit. Stow hit a sharp one to Moves, who touched third, forcing Ruell and threw to first in time 10 get Stow. making the only double play of the game.

hits, famed eleven, walked but four and hit one.
 The following is from one of the Hamilton publications:
 Ray Heating did the twirling for the Hams and went through the fif- teen innings He seemed to improve as the game progressed, and at no stage of the overtime play did he show signs of weakening. He was steady as a village 1amp-post when. there were men on bases, and he managed to keep the visitors nine hits well scattered. In the last five innings of the game the visitors managed to get but one hit off him and in the five innings only one man reached first base. He struck out eleven men dur ing the fray, walked four and hit one. making a showing which deserved to win the game
 The same paper runs first class newspaper cut of Heating attired in his Hamilton uniform, and underneath writes, Ray Heating, the twirling hero of yesterdays overtime session 7
 The Canadian league is a Class c organization. According to the Ham iIton writers, Heating is destined to last only this season with the Hams, going up to a higher class next year.

McAleer May Buy
 Boston Franchise
Washington Manager Said to. Be After Red Sox
 Team

Boston, July 19-James McAleer, manager of the Washington Senators, is now associated with the prospec- tive purchasers of the Boston Ameri- can League club from John I. Taylor in the most recent rumors that are floating about the Hub. President Taylor will not commit himself; he neither denies nor affirms that any transaction has been made or will be made further than to admit that he would sell for an unstated price.
 There was one story out that Tay- Tor had disposed of his stock to a syndicate of New York and Boston men for the sum of $350, ,0OO. Taylor denied that the transaction had been closed.
 It is believed here that McAleer is working in the interests of such a syndicate, and that he himself will be financially interested. It is ex- pected that he will be president of the club if the deal is made, and that he will devote his energies to the busi- ness and not the playing end of the proposition. John I. Taylor does not own the grounds at Huntington ave- nue. The syndicate, it is said, stands ready in case of purchase to join hands with the local National League club for the erection of a mammoth baseball amphitheatre to be used by the two local rivals.

Another Bridgeport boy goes up to the big leagues. This time it is George Curry, son of Mir. and Mrs. George Curry of Hamilton street, news comes from St. Louis that he has been signed up as pitcher with the American league outfit of that city.
 The news of Curry's acquisition by the Browns was heralded over the country last week going almost un- noticed, but not so by the members of the Columbia A. c. with whom he played when youngster.

Cincinnati and St. Louis Stars Have Jaw Breaking Names But Gan Play

Tn the good old days it used to be that a name like Mike Kelly, Pat O'Grady or some such was the only brand of cog for star. But the when a pair of names like Hoblitzel and Kontechy can take their place out at the fore front of battle, among the leaders of the game.
 It is evident that there can be nothing in a name when a brace of like a college cheer, can get away with it.
 No two first baseman in the coun- try have an great call above this pair-Hoblitzel of Cincinnati and Kontechy of St. Louis. But this may be due to the fact Chat the fan flock at large has long since amputated a big bulk of each cog away, leaving the simply Hobby and the equally simple Koney as the more easily pro- nounced remainder.
 Both are a god bit along the same lines,-big. powerfully set up athletes with an especial aptitude at knocking the everlasting cover off the ball. It was Hobby on Saturday who stepped up and whacked one of Mathewson s shoots into the right field seats for a clean homer, and the Red first sack CT has other four-base shots to his credit.

were not very bright. Hart opened with safe hit. High bunted and Upham threw to second to force Hart. Snyder took the throw, which was high. and he muffed the ball. Rehg sacrificed and advanced both runners. Shincel was up and as he had made two hits it was not known that he held back another. He hit hard one to Ruell and the ball bounded away from him. Hart scored and High came in with the winning run. High did not have much leeway and beat the throw by about foot.
 Stow walked in the tenth and was forced by Upham. Hey famed for the fourth time and Moves threw Snyder out. With two out for Hart ford, Soffel made a pretty hit to left but was out while trying to steal. Jack Hess umpired a good game and while the Bridgeport men made a few kicks, there was no occasion for an argument. The score:

(By Wagner.) r It takes extra innings to beat the Mechanics.
 Uppy Upham pitched great ball. The Ohio boy is having a fine season.
 The Mechanics are certainly crippled With Tom Crook suspended until July 25, Harvey Russell nursing broken finger, and Lou Litschi called to his home in Reading, Pa, by illness in the family, the club is in a bad way.
 Pete Wilson has it on the Bridgeport clouters. Anybody who can strike out 13 members of the heaviest hitting team in the league, deserves the coi- lege yell.
 Benny Kauff managed to tap Wilson for 8 two bagger and a single, but nobody else could get more than one hit.
 Mechanics in Springfield today Ivor Swanson is booked to pitch, and he hopes to break the Ponies winning streak
 Lakoff, the Hartford pitcher who was sent to Sioux City in the Western league, has rejoined the Senators. He doesn't say whether he was released or whether he didn't like it out there.
 Marsans had great day for Gin cinnati yesterday. The former New Britain star tapped Marquard of the Giants for a triple and two singles, and stole base.
 The fans have no kick coming about the suspension of Tom Crook so long Er0 Jerry Cornell, who was equally to blame with the local captain for the mixup at Savin Rock last Saturday. Each has been fined $25 and suspended until July 25.
 Springfield here for a double, header tomorrow. The Ponies are proving and with the Mechanics in their pres ent battered condition they will have to extend themselves to get an even break with the Ponies. Gibbs and Walker will do the pitching for the locals. The first game will be called at ? o'clock.
 Waterbury eased itself out of last place by beating New Britain 6 to 5 in F innings. Brown and Callahan worked for the O'Neilites, and Lower for New Britain.
 President Tracy is very much excit- ed over the report that Tom Crook played yesterday after he had been suspended. The notice was mailed Monday night and Manager McCann claims he didn't receive the letter be- fore the game yesterday The pres ident threatens to suspend Crook for the rest of the season if he finds that the captain played after being noti- fled of his suspension. It would seem that President Tracy should fine him. self $25 for failing to notify Umpire Hess that Crook should not be allowed to play.
 Chalky Clunn had a little hard luck yesterday. He twirled good ball for New Haven, but was beaten by Springfield, 4 to 2. A hit by Gardella took freak bound and went by Cough of New Haven for home run, send ing another runner in ahead of Gar della.
