BY President Baum. The executive of

are no particular changes, although such
as they are will doubtless interest the

they are as follows:
The Cincinnati base hit is abolished
Sacrifice fly is abolished, and will be
labeled sacrifice hit,
Where fly in such case is dropped
batsman is to be credited with sacrl
flee hit if it is the opinion of the scorer
that the man would have Tailed on

Catcher or infelder who attempts tC
make double play exempted from error
for throw, but this does not exempt
from error player who drops a thrown
ball to complete a double.
In event of attempt to steal base
prior to battery error, stolen base shall
be credited and battery error charged

Fate took a hand IN the celebration
planned in honor of Robert J. Tag
CERT. alias Jim Kelly. Of this city at
the Polo Grounds yesterday after
noon. Through a peculiar accident
public presentation was passed up.
Kelly met with an accident the day
before and was not on the Pittsburgh
bench. instead he sat behind the New
York bench. George j. Motzenbecker
and the Newark contingent. which
went over to pay homage to the local
boy, were disappointed on arriving at
the grounds to learn that Kelly had
injured his arm and according 10 the
Pittsburgh players was resting a : the
Hotel Somerset. where the Pirates
are making their headquarters.
Kelly. however. had decided TO take
trip up to the Polo Grounds and
knowing nothing of the fete planned
in his honor, was not aware of the
local friends presence.
After the game he returned to his
hotel and there he was met by a
committee of friends who took him
completely by surprise. George Mot
zenbecller. of this city, who was the
prime mover in getting up the eelebra-
ton, made a neat little presentation
speech and then handed Kelly the
diamond ring worth $3.50. realized by
subscription from local admirers and
sporting men.
Kelly explained that he had had a
narrow escape from serious injury
the day previous at Albany. Follow
ing an exhibition game between the
Albany and Pittsburgh teams, Kel
was running for car-still wearing
his spiked shoes. As he attempted
to beard it his spike caught and he
fell, narrowly escaping the wheels

which took place in Kansas CITY the
other night. Finneran and a number
OF the Brooklyn Federal League play

when a detective caught two con
men trying to sell the City Hall 10

fled at the first warning note of dam
ger and the sleuth emptied his re-
yolver in their direction and then
sprlnted. Finneran and Chappell
also dashed after the crooks and out
paced the detective, nabbing the two
men, who were so badly winded they
put up very little fight. The same
day Finneran had pitched and lost a
hard luck game to Kansas City by a

Yesterday in the International

The Hustlers have a habit, it seems,
of stopping league leading clubs in

Now they are trying hard to down
