CUBS SHOW LOCAL CROWD
 THEIR STARS
CBy Wagner.)

Even if Red Murray was sold down the river by Simon Legree McGraw, his name is still a household word in Bridgeport The former Giant star was given a burst of cheers when he stepped to the plate in the seventh yesterday as the Chicago Cubs were playing the Bridgeport boys at New field. Murray is very much upstage with the fans since the New York rooters bounded him for his failure to hit in the 1911 worlds series, so he didn't acknowledge the cheer. Murray flied to Noonan on his first attempt but got a single in the ninth. Red re- placed Frank Schulte, who played left in the first six innings. Chicago won by 2 to 0 in an interesting game. It was a good team that Manager Roger Bresnahan sent to this city. Jimmy Archer, the renowned back stop, was in charge of the squad and batted to the felders in preliminary practice All the regulars were on hand except Heinie Zimmerman. who was given a day off to roam around his boyhood haunts in the Bronx. Mo Larry, one of the regular inf1elders, played second.
 Cy williams, the Notre Dame col 1ege star for whose job Murray is fighting, was in center. He is a slanazy customer and can cover ground very I baseman, failed to get a hit off steg- ner, although he landed hard on the apple every time. Frank Schulte reacfed first each time he came up. A pass, a single and Noonan's huff of fly accomplished this.
 standr&dge, secured hby the Cubs from the Coast league, pitched the first five rounds for the mapor 1eaguers and the locals tapped him for three hits. Adams worked the last four sessions, giving Bridgeport one safety.
 Stegner deserves a. few skyrockets of praise for his splendid showing against the Cubs. The stoclzy. south paw held them to eight hits and but for an error by Lavery, would have given them only one run. Chicago had men on bases in every round except the eighth but stegner was good in the pinches.
 George Moshiers handled seven put outs and one assist in left and Hork- heiner was clever at .shortstop.
 The Cubs got a cheap run on the sec ond. With one down Williams walked and went to third on Phe1an's single. Hargreave bounded to the pitcher and Stegner threw home to get Williams. Lavery let the ball get away, Williams scoring. Tn the seventh Good singled and counted bn McLarry's two bagger. A good sized crowd saw the game.

FIRE NO. 2L0OTS
WAR SUGAR SHIP
Twenty Thousand Bags
Intended for Allies, Lost
on Tyninghame.

Fire was discovered in the cargo Of
sugar on the British freight steamer
Tyninghame when she was half way
down Ambrose Channel yesterday
morning on her way TO Queenstown.
With smoke pouring from her after
hold, the ship put about and steamed
back past Quarantine at full speed, fly
ing signals for help. The fire boat Seth
Low, lying at st. George, went to the
Tyninghame's aid, and drowned out the
fire by flooding Hold No. 4, where it
started. The freighter anchored be-
tween Liberty Statue and Staten Island.
This latest mysterious blaze on ship
bound for Europe with supplies for
one of the Allied powers is under in
vestigation by the New York police. It
is the second fire discovered on the
Tyninghame in little more than week.
The first one, which was believed to be
Of incendary origin, did $4,000 dam
age to the vessel and her cargo while
she was loading at Erie Basin. An
INSPECTION of the hold afterward dis
closed fragments of bottles which con-
tanned chemicals, according TO Captain
David Jones, the Tyninghame's COM
mander.
Representatives of Bowring & Co.,
local agents for the steamer. went to
the Tyninghame with Captain Tunney
and Lieutenant Busby Of the bomb
squad" as soon as the fire was under
control.
Captain Tunney said, after making
careful investigation, that, although
the fire was Of a mysterious origin, II
did not appear to be the work of Ger
man propagandists. He explained that
after the first fire the hold was not
cleared out, but instead boards were
put over the burned sugar bags and
the hold filled. II was possible, Cap
tain Tunney said, that yesterdays fire
might have been a fresh outbreak of
the original blaze.
Captain Tunney admitted that the
bomb squad have been watching sew
eral men who have been seen lettering
around the ships loading at Erie Basin.
Bowring & Co. announced that about
10000 bags Of sugar were destroyed
by the fire and water, but they did not
estimate the financial loss. The
Tyninghame will be taken TO berth
in Erie Basin tomorrow morning. After
repairs are made the hold will be load
ed once more and the ship will head
for Queenstown.
