Two bases on balls were given and one error The hitting of Sigmon, Christenberry and Bales and the fielding of both teams featured in both games. Watson pitched good ball in both contests.

A brief thunderstorm caused the postponement of the second game of the Baron-Chick series at Redwood Field yesterday afternoon, hard rain falling for about quarters of an hour and making play on the historic dia- mond impossible. The. rain started shortly after 2;3O o'clock, before the teams had reported, and speedy visit to the park by Managers Molesworth and Morairty resulted in the an nouncement that the game would not be played.
 To make up for the lost game. dou- ble header will be staged this after noon. The first battle will begin at 2:15 o'clock Yesterday was the first ladies day of the season that has been rained out this season. Mo1ey was anxious to play yesterday and had a few of his players out at the park in the morning taking 8 little practice
 Manager George Moriarty of the Chicks announced last night that Cy Barger and Howard Merritt would be his mound selections against the Bar ons in an effort to make it three straight. Moley will use Preacher" Perryman and Dick Robertson or Bur leigh Grimes. Ruel will probably catch both games for the Chicks. as Jack Wallace is being troubled with his leg, which has not sufficiently recov- cred as yet. Red Smith will be behind the plate in both affairs for the Bar ons. The first game will go the full nine innings. while the second battle will probably be cut to seven sessions.
 Moley is determined to cop the dou- ble bill today and consequently take the series. The win Thursday instil1ed Moriarty with confidence and the Chick pilot said last night that he ex- pected to decamp from Baronville to- night with the Barons' scalp on his belt. Umpire Jack Kerin will probably get back in harness today, following an absence since Monday. Jack has been suffering from an attack of ptomaine poison.
 The Chicks mingled with the Barons yesterday and with Secretary Tom Watkins idled away the afternoon sec ing Birmingham's sights.

 George E. Phair has always had few words to say about wrestling matches. Just to show one how thoroughly he believes in them we quote the following: A national convention is much like a wrest- ling match. Generality it is decided in the dressing room, but the sturdy yeomen outside refuse to believe it."
 Has Harry Heillman, the Coast league phenom, succeeding Sam Crawford, in the suburbs, for De- troit, fallen heir to the long dis tance firing mantel of Wahoo Sam uel? Back in the 1915 campaign the Nebraska barber stood second only to Tyrus Cobb in extra base-ham mering with a total of 264 hassocks.
 Now MT. Heillman stands right in the front rank among gents in Ban Johnson's outfit, who are in- clined to manufacture wallopS for far journeys.
 Federal league slabbers, it might be said, completely surround the National circuit at the present mark in the surrent campaign. MT. Mosley, now plying his slab wares for Buck Herzog in Cincinnati with a perfect average of two battles won in as many starts, tops the list, while Claude Hendrix, the present-day Cub, out of list of 51 slabbers in the Tener, stands absolutely last.
 Tn a half-doe nmarches to the rubber, the former pirate has been driven back five times.
 And yet back in 1912, when talk ing his hurling orders from Fred Clarke, this same MT. Hendrix, when the October lists of valor on the firing line were handed about, stood first in the National circuit. In 39 games Hendrix won two dozen and dropped the verdict only nine times.

HARRY L. NEWTON HELD
 ON EXTRADlTION WARRANT Man Who Was Charged With Conspir-
 ing to Kill J. p. Morgan.

New York, April 24-Harry l.. New ton, a former munitions worker, ar rested here last week and arraigned in police court on charges of bringing explosives from Canada, of conspiring to kill J. P. Morgan and to blow up the federal building, was today ar raigned before a United States com missioner on an extradition warrant sworn out by the British consul-gen- eral. charging him with the theft of shell from a munitions plant at St. Catherines. He was held without bail for examination next week
 Newton had in the police court been exonerated of all other. charges ex- cept that of conspiring to kill the banker, on which he was held on Sat urday on the strength of an affidavit containing the charge made by detec- lives. NewtOn's first counsel today declared that his client was being persecuted. Newtno himself asserted that the charge of stealing the muni- tions shell was baseless. He declared that it was an empty shell, defective and that he had purchased it for s2 as a souvenir
 It developed during the proceedings that Newton just prior to his arraign- ment had been exonerated by a po- lice magistrate of the conspiracy charge and had then been immediate 1y re-arrested on the extradition war rant.

On the March, New Bill, Will be Pre-
 sented by Bob Ott Today.

Much anticipation has already been shown toward the appearance of the farce with music entitled On the Marsh, which has been scored among the successful musical comedies now touring the country. On the March, headed by Joyful Bob Ott, the popular comedian will be the offering at the Auditorium today.
 The book and lyrics are from the pen of Mir. Matthew Ott, who has given the musical comedy stage more good things than any other writer, in cluding the musical comedy success, Seven Hours in New York.
 On the March is said to be one Of the best, if not the very best farces that MT Ott has ever written. A cho- rus is carried and there are eighteen catchy musical numbers introduced throughout the action of the play.
 Special scenery is carried for both acts, as well as an abundance of handsome costumes. and from other cities where On the March has ap- peared it is said to be one of the best musical comedies ever offered at pop ular prices. Seats will be on sale al the box office after 10 a. m. today.
