Yale played her old trick Of making

there were one or two false starts be-

mark with a tremendous jump. Within
half minute Yale was leading by half
a length, rowing thirty-four strokes to
the minute. Harvard was moving at
thirty-six to the minute and at the
frst quarter was a length astern. Cox

BY BRYAN MORSE.
Serious charges recently brought
against managers Of baseball teams in
the Government League threaten to
disrupt the organization or bring severe
criticism on the methods in vogue on
the field Of play. The fight for the
leadership Of the second series now be-
ing played puts one Of the managers in
an unenviable position Of having to ex-
plain charges made by a rival manager.
The questions at issue appear to hinge
upon the fact that players in the Gov
ernment League are also members of
teams in the Departmental circuit
across the Monument Ellipse and that
a clash In dates Is being avoided by all
means available.
Recently one Of the best players In
the city was seen leaving the Govern
ment League game at the conclusion
OF the third inning. His team was at
over and played In the Departmental
League. where his team was victorious
The manager of the losing team In
the Government circuit maintained that
this player prevailed upon his best
pitcher not to work and that in conse-
quence his team was roundly beaten.
The manager further states that the
player who left the Government League
game is teammate of the Government
League pitcher in the other league, and
that influence was brought to bear on
MIN which restrained him from taking
his turn in the Government League.
The Government League players, on
the date under discussion, refused to
play without the pitcher and the game
was a one-sided affair.
Manager Leander Herman, OF the
Navy team. has addressed the following
letter to The Times. regarding the diff
culty y referred S,nI to above: .
manager Williama nf fha
team. showed that he will stop short
or nothing to win a ball game as
per the following facts:
Lem owen, who was to pitch for
Navy, was, at the instigation of
Manager Williams and Player Lem
eric, of the Bureau team, not al
lowed to pitch. through influence
brought to bear on the manager of
the Agricultural team. Mr.. Williams
has also tried to procure a certain
player Of the Navy team, thereby
creating dissension and causing said
player to remain out of the game.
1t Is my opinion that a man who
shows such poor sportsmanship
should not be allowed to manage a
team representing any branch of the
Government service and, In fact,
should not in any way be connected
with amateur baseball in the Dis
trict. Such conduct Is determiental
TO. any sport at any time.
Very respectfully,

Manager Navy team, Government

The perturbation Of this famous
novel by George Barr McCutcheon will
be the attraction at the Majestic Fri
day Of this week. The book is we'll
known as one Of the best ever written
by this famous author, and the picture
is claimed to be even better than the
book. 1t is an Essanay production in
six reels, and has a decided punch ~
There are many great scenes and
thrilling situations. The story offers
unlimited opportunities for the screen
artists, and they have made the most
OF 1t. Beverly Bayne as the princess
and Francis x. Bushman as Grenfall
Lorry, the American adventurer, are
two wonderfully fine characters. and
they are supported by an excellent
cast.
From the moment that Lorry sets
eyes on the princess, who is travelling
thru this country, incog, until the wed
ding scene at the finish, the picture is
full Of action, romance and thrills.
The matinee will begin at four O'Clock,
and the first evening show at 1880.
