REULBACH MAY
 GO TO CINCINNATI
Buffalo Enquirer)


 Cincinnati, July 5-Edward Borneo Reulbach, the famous wild man of the Cubs, regrets that he isn't going to be a Red. Charlie Murphy won't let him because Charles only wants Ben ton or Suggs in trade.
 Benton or Suggs for ReuIbach,' g sadd Charles W. Murphy. we have decided not to make a, direct sale of any player. True, we want pitchers, and we are willing to trade Reulbach- also two other men-but we want an equivalent for them, and no money Give us suggs and it would be a deal immediately.
 And Joe Tinker putting his money back in his pocket, cried feebly, Help, helpl
 ''I would have been glad to get here D Reulbach said, flor it seems evtde If Tinker gets me-, I'll gladly take up even more than one mans share of the pitching just to show that I'm a long way from being through"
 It Is the opinion of Johnny E9vers that Reu1bach is about done-even if he won't say so, he thinks so. Joe Tinker doesn't agree with him, but of good games in his system. For several years ReuIbach has been ter ribly wild in April and May, and useless to the team till about June 1. After the warm weather starts, Ed has gone forward like a whirlwind. For three years in succession he led the National league pitchers, and his record of games won and lost since he joined the big show is one of the greatest ever compiled. He won ten games and lost six last season-a. per- centage of .625-but was able to decide only sixteen games out of thirty-nine no less than twenty three of h nd This summer Ed has been unusually slow in sxattire hack tn form '

LACKMAN'S CASE
 IS CONTINUED

John LacknaAn, who runs hat shop in Fairfield avenue, was tried in the city court this morning for the theft Of go1f-bag and sticks from the Stamford wreck These had been prominently displayed in his windows and were alleged to be the property Of a wealthy resident of Dongan lille killed in the "Skyfark.''
 According to the testimony given by railroad and city detectives, it was not what Jack said about pos- sessing the stolen property but what he refused to say that led him into his present difficulties.
 The case was continued until July 19 that Lackman may explain further to the officers the manner in which he secured the de1ics.

WHAT THE WILD WAVES SAY
 ALONG THE MILFORD SHORE

The Silver Sands residents certainly observed the Fourth of July yester- day, the program of the days sport being one of the most comprehensive ones ever attempted at this beach. Tn the morning the Bi1likens and the TEeta Beta Nu clubs met on the sand bar for a baseball game and when the tide came in, in the afternoon. there were aquatic sports of all kinds in- cluding canoe tilting contests, swim ming races, motor, sail boat and ca- noe races, and water basketball. One of the finest displays of fireworks seen along the beach rounded off the days entertainment.

There has been a remarkable falling off in emigration from Great Britain to the Australian colonies during the present year, according to the steam ship companies concerned in this traf- fc. It is put down to the present high level of wages and the continued trade boom which give men employment in England. Despite this, however, Can ada continues to get a very large number of emigrants from England and Scotland, so there are probably other causes for the decrease In the Australian figures.
 This loss in traffic has been felt rather seriously by the steamship lines running to the South Seas. Last year was a tremendous demand for passages to Australia and New Zea- Iand and to meet this trade the steamship companies increased the ac- commoda tions on each vessel and also put on new steamers. Today the ships are running very light, even on re- duced schedules.
