CARDINALS
HEROES OF BIG
WRECK IN EAST

Boston, July IA Roger Bresnahan
and his ST. Louis Cardinals. the sensa-
tions of the National league pennant
race, narrowly escaped death in train
wreck early yesterday morning on
their way here from Philadelphia. The
train which was carrying the ball play
ers plunged from trestle while speed
ing through the outskirts of Bridge
port, Conn, crashing In twisted mass
of wood and steel to the street below.
Not a Cardinal was injured. although
several passengers were killed and a
score seriously wounded.
Bresnahan and his players proved
themselves real heroes and assisted in
rescuing the passeng gers and aiding the
wounded. Bresnahan crawled out of
the debris and together with First
Baseman Konetchy and Pitcher Bob
Harmon dragged several women from
under the mass OF ruins.
Speaking of the incident the players
declared it was a terrible sensation
when the crash came and they now
wonder how all were saved. Barring a
scare and shaking up they are none
the worse for the wreck. The rescue
train brought the team here late yes
terday afternoon, but too late to play
the scheduled game with the Doves.

British Stars Win Meet
Victory of Rhodes Scholar Putnam Gives Oxford and
Cambridge Decision Over Yale and Harvard

London. July 12.-Athletic followers
last night. From the Cheviot Hills to
the English channel the sensational
and thrilling triumph of the British
athletes over the stars from America in
the international struggle yesterday
afternoon is being celebrated.
There Is a reason for this unexpected
joy No one. not even the most ardent
admirer of the athletes from Oxford
and Cambridge believed they had a
chance against the worthy famed foes
from Yale and Harvard. But Eng
land. for once. sprung a surprise and
of the nine events was the victor in
five.
The meet wasn't settled until the
very last contest had come of. 1t was
the one mile run. America was conf
dent that in this final event It would
run away from England and one more
have the satisfaction of trampling on
John Bull.
The thousands and thousands who
damned the Queens club stadium arose
to their feet and tore the air with
their yells when the athletes burst
away in the event to decide whether
America or the Britons had come back
to life in the sport world.
AS the runners passed the half mile
mark some one spurted out in front
His stride didn't change an inch, but
his speed did. Step by step he drew
away from the others and until 1t was
apparent that he was certain winner.
