Waverley forfeited to Manhattan in
the fourth inning after two OF the

started in the third when Newman called
Roache out for not touching third and
reached climax in the fourth when

Newman has had a hard road ever

late in May. The umpire who started
the season in the Independence League
needed little to the wraggling Of the
players who were continually kicking at
his decisions, making the games chaotic
affairs Upon taking up his duties New
man had to establish order and he has
succeeded very we'll. y

forfeited Manager Stanton of Waverley
entered a protest with the president
Action on the protest will no doubt be
taken at meeting early in July.

AS soon as the decision was made the
crowd surged on the field surrounding
the umpire and other officials who were
present. That the decisions were close
is shown by the fact that while some
passed the umpire with urgly remarks

assurance that his eyesight was in no
way defective.
At the time the trouble broke out the
score stood 8 to l in favor Of Manhat-

Whether or not President Roakes will

In one Of the poorest played games
Seen on the Marquette League grounds
this season. st. Stephens walked away
from Company K in a seven-inning
farce yesterday. The winners started
the slaughter in the first round and
the third and fourth. Each of the pitch
ers was hit hard. the victors connecting
safely eighteen times off G. Braddock's
delivery and three times of Mccoy,
who twirled the last inning for the
losers. Norris, on the mound, did not
pitch the game he is capable Of twtri-
ing. eight clean singles being gotten
off his delivery.
Stolen bases were a prominent fea-
ture OF the contest, twenty-five, all told,
being made. Sullivan led with four,
Lemeric Schombert, and Callap follow
ing closely with three each to their
credit. Schombert proved to be the
the plate five times. scoring one-fifth
OF his teams tallies.
The batting honors were carried by
Mccoy, Of Company X, connecting for
two out of two. Geier, in the center
garden for the winners, also batted
1000, getting a two-sacker out of one
trip to the pan. "Pfney' Hilleary, the
boy who is not considered a heavy hit
ter, was there with the willow yester-
day, getting three out of four. Schom-
bert, on the third corner for the victors,
had his batting eye trimmed, polling
out three clean singles out OF four
trials.
In the second round, Presgreaves, in
the left garden for the defeated, re-
ceived a nasty knock on the head, when
Norris struck him with a pitched ball.
II was thought that he was hurt pretty
badly, but he pluckily resumed the game
without murnur.
Gallaghan, in center for the slaughter
ed made a nifty catch of line drive of
Brownie" Lemeric's bat in the third
session, which brought the crowd to its
feet.
In the final round Noone, playing left
for the ST. Stephens crowd, pulled down
a long fly which Rose sent into his ter

Callan an error in the fifth inning, when
he caught a fly which had bounced out
