BILLIARD STARS TO
MEET AT THE ROYAL

Play in Second Series of Cham
pionship League Tonight.

Ora Morningstar and Koji Yamada,
the crack japanese billiard star. will
play in the second series in the Cham
pion Billiard League this afternoon and
tonight at the Royal Billiard Parlors.
Both Morningstar and Yamada have
been playing in great form the past two
weeks and are at the present time in
the best of shape to give a good ac-
count of themselves. Morningstar is lead
ing the circuit with thirty-rwo games
won and five lost, but Yamada is out
to increase his percentage column, and
win of two or three games from the
leaders will not surprise the followers
of the league.
Frank Sherman. the proprietor Of the
New York Avenue Billiard Parlors, has
arranged seats to accommodate all who
wish to attend. and has made special
efforts to care for the comfort Of a large
crowd.
-Four hundred points will be PLAYED
this afternoon, while the players will
meet over the same route tonight at s
o clock. This contest will be at the 49,

Federal League magnates will convene
in Chicago next saturday and unless
something happens to alter present con-
ditions Charles Wesghman, peace COM
missioner, will inform his pals that they
must either continue to wage war against
organized baseball or swallow q pill that
will not be coated with sugar.
According to information received from
the West. the major leagues have de-
manded absolute surrender.
Naturally the outlaws will soon at the
idea, give out interviews to the effect
that organized baseball can go to blazes
as far as they are concerned, and that
before the winter is over twenty-five or
more stars from the big circuits will
be enrolled on the various Fed rosters.
The dope at present is that Weeghman,
of Chicago, and the Wards. OF Brook
lyn, are the only rich club owners will
ing to spend money to keep the Gilmore
ship aioat
The question now resolves itself to this.
VIII the Brooklyn and Chicago mag
mates continue to spend their coin? It's
a problem hard to answer.
Foster Sanford, former Yale coach. at
present in charge of football affairs at
Rutgers College, was an interested spec
tator at the Georgetown-Washingto and
Jefferson game here Saturday.
Sanford was here TO get line on
Washington and Jefferson as Rutgers

of seeing q harder fought game than

WASHINGTON SOCCERS
LOSE To WANDERERS
Local Kickers Drop Hard-fought Game
in Opening Contest of League
by Score of 2 to !.

Magnificent weather and the prospect
Of a fine game attracted quite a large
crowd TO RosedaIe Park yesterday. where
the Washington Soccer Club entertained
the Wanderers. of Baltimore, in the first
league match Of the season. although the
locals lost. = to /. The fact that the
Wanderers are yet unbeaten added zest
to the fixture. and supporters of both
teams turned out in full strength TO en-
courage their favorite.
Washington won the toss and defended
the west goal The Reds opened with a
rush, but were checked by McGinty and
Briggs, taking up the attack forced a
corner. which was Ineffective, Cox, gain
ing possession of the leather about mid
field. made a very pretty run. but was
robbed by Hunt. the Wanderers full
back, as he was nearing the visitors
goal. This set the Baltimore forwards
going and Steadman was called upon to
save, which he did in fine style.
The Reds besieged the home goal,
and in the bombardment, Hodges, who
was playing a fine game at left half
for the locals, was hurt and forced to
retire. His absence was keenly felt, for
he had hardly left the field when
Cruikshanks gained possession far out
and meeting with little opposition
scored with an unsavable shot. Col
Inns and Grieve on the Washington left
wing worked up a useful looking move
ment, but it was nipped in the bud by
Barton. the Reds left half back.
Another strong rush by the visitors
in which Hume and McCluskey shone
ended in Steadman getting a hot hand
full. which was dealt with in a first
class manner. The Wanderers were
having 4 little better of matters at
this stage when the local right wing
broke away and were becoming
dangerous, when Cowar was held up
Tor being offside.
From the free-kick Bennett got the
sphere and after a brilliant run was
robbed by McGinty, when he seemed GER
tain to score. Hodge here re-entered the
game and the home team braced up a lit
tie and kept the visitors in their own
territory until half time. Interval score:
Wanderers, !; Washington, o.
On the resumption it was noticed that
Hodge had been shifted from left half
to inside right, Grieve taking his place
at half. Play here became pretty keen
around the home goal and Frazier dis
played some sterling defensive tactics.
A brilliant run by Collins and Hodge was
ended by Collins being fouled in the PEN
atty area. Hodge, who took the kick,
struck the cross bar but Washington,
not to be denied. came back again and
after Frazier beat both backs he passed
to Hodge, who scored with a lightning
drive.
After the center the Wanderers pressed
and McCluskey. after many attempts, at
last beat Steadman with a light shot,
thus scoring the Wanderers second and
