therefore fell entirely upon the Cornell

The Triangular players stuck to the

Farewell Game With Savannah
Prevented. hut Players Get
Final Batting Practice.
HUSTON GOES on AHEAD

SAvASNAH. Ga. April 3.-Ran and
cold weather necessitated a cancellation
OF the farewell exhibition game scheduled
to-day between the New York Americans
and the Savannah team OF the South
Atlantic League. The weather cleared
and the temperature rose In pleasing
proportions about o'clock. but the
heavy rains OF the night left the dirt
diamond at the park a veritabie quag-
mire.
Savannah fans seemed quite put out
that the big leaguers would not consent
to a water polo game. Their exalted
opinion OF the ability and stability of
the Donovan clan was Jared somewhat
by the recent easy victory OF the Chi
cago Cubs over the Gothamites. This.
coupled with the fact that Savannah
had taken the measure OF the champion
Athletics, had whetted the local appe-
title for a meal at Donovan's expense.
No doubt Il is we'll that to-day's game
was cancelled. Manager Donovan. in
spite OF the cool winds, was able to
put his club through thorough drill
in batting that might not have developed
IN a real game. Istead OF a few pitchers
getting the benefit OF the afternoons
work all OF the twirlers were able to
share the opportunities OF the Anal day
OF practice here.
Though no authoritative announce
ment has been made, II is believed that
the mana cement OF the Yankees intends
to establish n permanent training camp
In this city. According TO the 'ale of the
Oldest inhabitant this has been the
worst spring in the memory OF the town.
yet as training seasons go. II left little
TO be desired. There were few days
when IL was impossible to enjoy the adj
vantages OF the ball park. and these were
spent most advantageously In the we'll
equipped Y. NJ. c. A. gymnasium.
Capt. TIL Huston deserted his mock
this evening for a brief respite. He
got tired hanging around for diamond
victories and hied himself to view the
Mortified remains Of something really
worth while in the line OF scrap. The
Captain will drop Off at Richmond. Va.
a couple OF days ahead OF his club to
study the Scared landmarks of the
campaign around the capital of the Con-
federacy. This war game il mania
with the Captain just the same as major
league batting averages. He has ex-
plored all the old landmarks around Sa-
vannah. a great portion OF which lie in
the confines OF the golf links.
The New York team was banqueted
tonight by the management OF the De
Soto Hotel, There remains little cere-
mony before tho departure AT 1875 to-
morrow evening. President Nick Corish
OF the South Atlantic League will enter
tain the visitors to a shore dinner to-
morrow.
