and Thompson. Both have speed and
good control Dalton struck out five mer

TODAY'S GAME.
Mount Pleasant A. C. VS.. Times.

1t was rather unfortunate that the sec
ond game of the season In the Columbia
League should result in a forfeit
especially for reasons as occasioned in
Yesterdays combat. which was awarded
| to Southern. Cash had just succeeded
Miller on the mound for Braddock. and
| in the opinion of Umpire Hughes the
| youngster deliberately threw the ball
around the field in order to delay the
game and prevent defeat that stared his
| ness Cash was warned repeatedly, but
on his third offense Hughes called a halt
long enough to make his decision.
Four innings of play had been complet-
| ed. with the score standing to in favor
Of Southern, when the decision was made
| The game was anything but a fast one,
and fortunately was witnessed by scat
| tering Of fans.
| Miller, who started to pitch for Brad
dock, had a world Of speed, but was as
wild as a March hare. The youngster,
| who no doubt will be heard from later,
was formerly with the Park Athletic
Club. now member of the Northern AS
ISOLATION.
In the absence of Sam Seay. who will
probably play first for Braddock this
| season. Manager Harry Seay played the
| bag. The veteran handled himself as Of
old, but could do little with Munch's as
sortment of-twisters.
Sinclair, a former Technical High
School athlete, started the game in left
for Braddock. but was forced to retire
after the second, when he was the vic
tim of one Of Munchs vicious curves.
The ball struck his head and bounded
out to the pitchers box. 1t is hardly
probable that the youngster will be able
to get back in the game for a week or
| more.
v"Oozy Bill Huntemann, played on the
initial corner for the Railroaders and en-
joyed a big day with the stick. Out of
two trips to the plate he connected for

that he does not know where to

expected with Mr. Mccormick, but
was DELAYED in his arrival.
After his visitors had left Col.
Roosevelt said:
Mr.. Mccormick is for me, heart and
soul. He viii take part in the organ

tation Immediately with several men
in his state who are Progressiyes.
Undoubtedly some of the regular Re
publican candidates for Congress in
Illinois will support and in some cases
we will put up Independent eandi-
dates"
DO you think Gov. Dineen will come
into line?" the colonel was asked.
II don't know about that yet" he
replied.
Col Roosevelt said he had received
hundreds of letters and kilograms.

At Rebel Front Bachimba, Mex,
July IA tremendous explosion just
north of Consuelo station in the Fed
eral camp a few miles away was
heard, early. today, accompanied by
cries of distress that lasted for nearly
half an hour. 1t Is believed that
Federal troop train moving northward
came in contact with mines placed
several days ago by rebels and that
the train was completely wrecked and
many lives lost. Up to II o'clock the
government forces had not attacked.
AT the Rebel Front, Bachimba, Mex,

ment troops advanced toward the

suelo, eight miles south of here. Dur
ing the day two armies were expected
to engage in the first big battle since
the rebels were defeated at Rellano
| nearly four weeks ago. II Is estimated
| that 10000 men will be engaged on
both sides.
The federal artillery with regiment
of cavalry advanced on the east side
of the railroad. while further east
about 1900 cavalry and infantry were
marching early. today.
To the west 1000 Federal cavalry
and light mountain artillery were be-
| ing moved. y
1t appeared quite likely, that the
Federal advance would stop at Del
Frente. a short distance south and
west of Bachmba mountain pass,
where it was anticipated. that the
government would begin Smelling the
rebel positions with heavy artillery
while flanking columns of cavalry
moved up under the cannon fire.
