Nationals no longer cinch.

President Thomas J. Lynch, of the
National League, is being criticised
for his leniency in handling the uin-
pire-baiting in his organization. Or
dinarily I'm with the umpire. but
there are some indicator gents-nota-
bly, silk" O'Loughlin and one T. Con-
nolly-who would benefit greatly by
a course in common sense. Supported
blindly by Ban Johnson, they are
riding roughshod over players and
managers.

Now for another victory.

Now for another victory.
The Nationals open their first whole
week at home today, confident of at
least breaking even with the foe. In
deed, Manager Griffith sees no reason
why his team should not take four or
five Of the scheduled six games. There's
nothing like confidence. 1t wins half
the battles. Meanwhile, shall be con-
tent with three victories this week.
Reds continue to win.
Don't forget, you fans, that Jack
Quinn will oppose the Nationals
again in this series. He has been
defeated only four times in as many
seasons by the Capital City tribe and
1t will require excellent playing to
scalp him when steaming along at
full blast. But, then, the Nationals
are playing pretty smooth ball right
now and may do 1t. after all.

IOy. BLEASE REPLIES
TO FIELDER CHARGES
CONTINUED from Page Three)

general reference TO the testimony oI
Sam j. Nichols, as substantiating his
statement, are given.
He gives the Bently parole as being
the one referred to by Fielder In the
letters which were published as writ
ten to the governor from Ohio, and
he exhibits receipt for a draft OF
$40 which was sent the governor by
friends of Bently and which was turn
ed over to the latter, he signing re-
ceipt for same. An affidavit from w
f. Blackburn. the governors steno-
grapher. setting out the above state
ment is submitted.
A denial that he received $4,000 for
the pardon of Rudolph Rabens is made
and an AFFIDAVIT from Rabens himself
settiGe this forth is submitted, also
an affidavit from the Rev. w. A. c.
Mueller, bearing this out.
Mr.. Mueller says in his affidavit
that he personally requested the par
don; that Rabens had only twenty
eight days more to serve and that IT
is foolish to think she paid $4,000 to
keep from serving twenty-eight days
He also says that Rabens' people tell
him that they did not offer, or pay one
cent.
The governor says he never heard
of T. III. Krauss until the Augusta
hearing and he reiterates that he has
genuine "T. b. letters. He repeats his
well-known statements about a
"frame-up" and being able to convict
Fielder.
"The governor calls his brief" "The
Proof Positive" and says: you should
rejoice with me that once more honor
and virtue have been able to with
stand the black hand assaults of in
fanny and shame. He refers to "the
Burns gang" and applies to them such
epithets as "hirelings" and Cattle"
Says Taft Denounced Burns.
He says that Since it became
known that the Burns crowd was
bounding me down, letters and tele-
grams have come to me from various
sections of the continent giving me in

detective agency. / wish to call your
attention to the fact that they have
been denounced by two of the most
prominent men in the United States
President William H. Taft, and At

governor asasils the detective in sting
ing and bitter terms.

of "Other Future Charges and Proof

STEAMER ON NEW ROUTE.
The Trenton in Service of Owners
on James River.

To take the place of the steamer City
Of Milford on a route recently establish
ed by the Potomac and Chesapeake
Steamboat Company on the James river
between Norfolk and Petersburg, Va,
the little steamer Trenton left here yes
terday for Norfolk. The City of Milford
has been sold to parties at Annapolis,
Md, who will use her on a route on
Chesapeake bay out of that city, and she
has been turned over to them.
The Trenton will start service as soon
as she reaches Norfolk. and it is more
than probable she will not be brought
back to this city. The City of Milford
before going to Norfolk. about two
months ago. had been in service on the
Potomac About six months ago she was
sold to Baltimore parties. who operated
her for time on route out of Balti-
more on Chesapeake bay, but the route
did not pay and the local steamboat
company took back the vessel
The Trenton was brought here about
eight years ago to run on the river in
opposition to the existing lines. She ran
on Independent routes for the Potomac
Navigation Company until about a year
ago. when she was bought by the Poto-
mac and Chesapeake Steamboat Com
pany.
