BOSTON CAR STRIKE ]! [
STRIKE BREAKING CONDUCTORS
 ARE ACCUSED OF "KNOCK- sas.s. ING DOWN.

Boston. June 13-Both sides marked time, today, in the strike of $500 BOs- ton Elevated mOtOrmen and cOnduc- tors with each side positively claiming the upper hand.
 More ears were operated, today, by the company's strike breakers and on better schedule than since the strike began six days ago. Strike Leader Mahon, however, declared, today, that it. is costing the company thousands of dollars in bonus payments to con- tinue under present conditions.
 @ LeaderMahon declared that the ele- vated officers were greatly worried, today, over the many accidents which occurred, yesterday, when nine boys were hurt in collisions between cars operated by green motormen. Another big factor which elevated officials have practically admitted is the man. ner in which some strikebreaking con- ductors are adding to their bank ac- counts by knocking down" fares.
 On one car which came into the city on an early trip, today, the 10 rows of seats each had five passengers and the running board and back plat form were crowded. Just before the conductor reset his register as his car entered the subway only IA transfers and 8 cash fares had been rung up.
 The company had pressed into ser vice as motormen and conductors ev- cry available inspector and track man and until these are relieved by fresh importatfons of strikebreakers it can not hope to catch up with wanderers who apply for jobs as conductors work a dozen trips and then quietly leave town with replenished reticules.
 Permission was asked, today, for a monster mass meeting, Sunday, on fla nous Boston Common. Mayor Fitz- gerald has taken the matter under ad- ViSement

Years Ago Wagner
 Wore a Paterson Uniform

It was just fifteen years ago tomor- row that the newspapers of Paterson. N. J., reported. with many cheerful chortles and gleeful gurgles, how one ball player Hans Wagner by name, caught eight fly balls in left field, and then proceeded to smash out so many long drives that the opposing teams outfielders climbed over the renee every time the big Dutchman went to bat. The feat of the mighty Hans on that day, when he wore the uni form of Paterson club of the Atlantic League, was the real beginning of his career, and 1t was not long until he was wearing Pirate uniform John Henry wagner--to give him his bona to Paterson by Pittsburgh as free gift. The Pirates had got Wagner, along with a job lot of other players. from Wheeling, w. Va. The Wheeling club had busted" even before 1t started, and Pittsburgh bought the re- mains mainly to get Al WasneI, @ lent player. Before that, Hanss had played for a short time with Steuben- ville,. O., and Warren O., in the Iron and Oil League, but both clubs had gone to pieces. The Paterson club was at that time under the management of Edward Grant Barrow, now the head of the International League. Barrow had seen Honus perform and considered him conner. Wagner AIayed at the initial and third rbags and in the. outfield for the Silk City cub. and his wonderful bat work nearly smashed the league: Pitts burgh regretted it's gift and offered .Barrows 2, 2,0OO for Wagner, but in the meantime he had been sold to Louisville, then. in the stwelye-club National league. With the Colonels Hans played outfield, first and third bases, and continued his great stick was dropped from the National by reason of the reduction to ntelght- city circuit, Wagner went to Pitts. burgh. and has ever since been cen the the is now thirty-eixht years old, and his reign as the greatest among the kings of baseball is probably over. Indeed. many fans will say that the crown has passed to MT. Tyrus Cobb. of De troit but Hans still has thousands of leal subjects who are willing to swear that he is still the undisputed cham pion of the diamond.

EBBETS MAKES PLAYER
 AND FAN SHAKE HANDS
Rooter, Who Tnsulted Third Base-
 man Smith, Apologies.

President Ebbets played the role of peacemaker after yesterdays Brook lyn-Pittsburg game. It appears that Matthew Belford, was the man who was asked to leave Washington Park Tuesday for addressing uncomp1imen- tary remarks to Third Baseman J. Carlyle Smith of the Dodgers. Twen. ty-nine friends accompanied Belford to the street, vowing that they never would attend another game on Eb- bets' diamond.
 Ebbets bestirred himself early yes- terdays morning and had numerous con- ferences with Belford and his friends. He learned that they were sorry that so much. trouble had occurred and he finally suggested that Belford should meet smith after the game. Ac- cordingly Belford accompanied Ebbets to the field after the ninth inning was over and Smith was hailed.
 Smith, want you to meet a friend of mine, MT. Belford," said the Brook 1yn magnate. The ball player stared if he didn't understand the meaning of the introduction.
 '.Shake hands, smith, continued Eb- bets with broad grin. Come, Bell ford, put out your mitt.''
 Smith and Belford clasped hands, but said nothing. They just looked.
 Say something!" exclaimed Ebbets. You fellows are men and .shouldn'. act like schoolboys. Come, say some thing!''
 "Mr. Smith deeply regret that l called you names yesterday" said Bel ford, smiling. I didn't mean to hurt

 All told there were six home runs during the afternoon, Genest Of Springfield getting one in each game, Miller of Bridgeport making two in tributing one in the first and Gibbs of Bridgeport getting one in the sec ond Four of these smashes would have been good for circuit clouts on almost any field. sl,
 Jack Spratt. recently acquired by Bridgeport from the Boston Nationals, was the all-around star of the day. Besides playing a great game at short and handling all told 13 chances with- out an error, he pulled some pippins of plays that do not figure in the scor- ing.

CREWS ON THAMES BOTHERED BY POOR
 WATER CONDITIONS

New London, June 13-The Yale and Harvard rowing squads on the Thames are having their practice cut short by poor water conditions and yesterday but little rowing was done and that in sheltered places. As soon as the boats were taken out into the open they shipped much water. There was the usual brush between the Harvard varsity and freshmen eights but the stroke was kept low. Today there will probably be time row by the varsity four if the water in the evening is good and there may also be time row by the varsity eight in the even- ing if everything is satisfactory. Wis. itors are at both quarters, today, and are increasing in number as time for Yale's commencement approaches.
