Holman Sent Home;
In a Nervous Collapse

PITTSBURGH, June 2l.-Artie Hof-
man, who was secured from the Cubs
through a trade, has been ordered to
his home in Akron. Ohio. for rest.
Clarke and Holman had a long talk last
night after the game. Since Hofman's s
recent collapse in New York, his condi-
ton has been such that he was border
ing on a complete nervous breakdown.
Clarke decided the best thing to do
was to send Hoffman home. Holman IS
under weight and full of malaria, ac-
cording to his own statement. Those IN
a position to know state that Hoffman s
ailment is more than malaria.
A few months before the trade was
pulled off with the Cubs Hoffman had to
be carried from the Columbia Theater
In Chicago and taken to a hotel in a

said that Hofman's illness Is such as to

collegiate games are nearly done Some
may make the running, but 1t will be
hard at this time to get into the lineup

Engel seems to be good for about six

he got along well for six rounds. when
the avalanche OF hits struck him. In

The amateur ball tosers expect to get
down to business today after yester-
days start and managers say their
teams will again be ready to hold forth
on the various diamonds. The long
period of rest occasioned by the rain.
and the return of the Nationals from
the West, has called off many of the
contests which will be sandwiched in
as postponed games later in the season.
Yesterday there were two postponed
games. The Marquette League teams
failed to have a full quota of players
and the Government League was forced
to call forfeit on account of the fact
that War did not have a team to meet
Interior. Promise Is given today that
the leagues will stage all their scheduled
contests this afternoon.
One of the leagues. the Columbia,
tried to play off postponed game yes
terday between Southern and American
Security, but was unable to get the
teams out. The game was announced in
the early morning. but was called off
1t noon. Some of the teams did not
have notice of the games and were at
loss to know what to do.
Cornell Company and Sewerage Pump
on are to battle 1t out today at
the Capital City League grounds and
while neither team has had much prac-
tice, a good game is looked for. These
teams are the strength of the circuit
and have many hackers. The league
started up again yesterday with Brent
wood and Navy Yard and drew a fair
crowd. 1t is expected that the troubles
are all over and the circuit will again
continue in operation.
Some of the amateur teams seem to
be pulling away from the idea of a
parade and celebration on amateur day
and it is generally regretted by those
who have the interest at heart. In
and giving the amateur commission all
kinds of support, a few of the peevish
ones seem to be trying to get back at
the commission by trying to spread dis
Oension in the ranks.
