SENIORS
WIN FIRST
OF THE SERIES

In a fast and snappy game, featured
by the hitting of the victors, the VIII
mington High School Seniors we're
defeated by the Sophmores yesterday.
by a GA count. Mason was on the
firing line for the lower class men
and was invincible, and but four safe
clouts we're gathered from his puz-
cling delivery. Cloud did mound
duty for the Seniors and was touched
up rather lively, but several woeful
errors did more damage than the
hits. Mason famed six over-anxious
clouters, and Cloud sent nine hit
smiths back to the bench by the
humilating strikeout route. F1dance,
Wise and Mason led in the clubbing
and Graves work at first was remark
ably good. Manager Wickersham pull
ed off all kinds Of hair-raising stops
in practice. but was a little on color
in the actual fray. This is the first
of a series of three games between

PHILADELPHIA. May 21.--After a
session of over two hours, the Amer

afternoon came to a decision on the
question out OF which arose the strike
of the Detroit baseball club. Ty
Cobb's case remains in the same state,

Detroit players are fined 500 each
and reinstated. The magnates adopted
a resolution to the effect that they
would see in the future that players
on the ball field are suitably protect
ed from insults from the fans. Wher-

cured to attend ball games. as in Chi
