 Friday morning about 6.3O when the Trail Ia amily were at breakfast, one. of the men. called Mark, last, TlaE-s not known, who drove one of the Trail tea ms at the Groton Iron works, went to tfie door with Blood dripping freely from one arm and asked for the boss, saying Jack Durraf1d, a negro, also employed on the Trail place, had shot him. S He asked MT. Trail to go in pursuit of the man who, he. said had gone. to Midway, where there. is @ negro settlement. -- =
 MT. Trail started a once in his auto truck and caught Durrand before Mid way was reached. The man made no objection to returning with him and he was brought to the borough. turned over to Officer F.

 He has only been in the Trail em- I,loy few days, and those days, he sGys, have been made misera ble by his fellow workmen, who made no secret O. their distaste to working with him and had freely threatened to drive him of the property.
 T didn't know it was against the law to carry a revolver, and I haven't carried one before for Is years. I was afraid of my life on account of the threats the other men made. and they told me they would fix me. if I came tkere to work any more.
 ''I got. a revolver to protect myself. and Tony. an Italian. took >out a b-s55 knife, and his puddle got 2 club and they came for me. They called me all klrds of na mes and when they started I thought they would beat me up and I silot.'' s.: <.r.l ~ -t

Morse Tennis Star Defeats
Miss Browne on Gedney
Farms Courts

Miss Molla Bjurstedt, the Morse won
der, succeeded in winning her first
match from Miss Mary K. Browne, Of
California, in competition for the
Julian s. Myrick trophy when they met
on the courts of the Gedney Farms
Country Club yesterday, in aid OF the
American Ambulance Fund. The score
was 6-3, 3-6. 6-3.
To many of the spectators the down
fall of the California player was due
considerably to the playing on the dirt
courts. Miss Browne seemed 10 have
great difficulty in controlling the ball
as many Of her drives went out OF
court. At times she was also erratlc,
6ut despite her unsteady playing she
gave Miss Bjurstedt stiff tussle, many
of the games going to deuce several
times.
However, the national champion was
in splendid form. She smashed at MISS
Browne violently, making good use. OF
her overhead balls and outplayIng her
opponent at the net. The large crowd
OF SPECTATORS that occupied every van
tage point around the court was
treated to many thrills. Time and
again the players would advance 20 the
net for long volleys, and invariably IL
was Miss Browne who ended the play
BY her unsteadiness.
Miss Browne opened the first set by
capturing the first two games, but MISS
Bfurstedt evened the count in the next
two games. Miss Browne at TINS

failed to score at least one run.
Until he pulled his cork sprinting {? y
from first TO the plate Fred Toney gave
only one hit. This was a scratchy, slow
hopper TO McKechnie that Robertson
beat with one out in the fifth inning.
The feet Davy was doubled with Holke
a moment later.
Eddie Roush, the pacemaker OF Ma
tional League batters, boosted his aver
age with two singles in four times at
bat. He also stole second base. The
hit off Anderson was flukey and might
have been prevented had the pitcher
shown moro alacrity in covering the
bag.
Speaking Of first basemen, there is
only one. His address is Cincinnati and
his name is Hal Chase. The former
idol Of the Yankees never appeared To
greater advantage than yesterday. He
ranges fifteen feet further than any
one else and makes easily plays for
which another would not try.
The right-handed department Of the
Giants pitching staff will stand a bit
more tinkering, IL is feared. Toney
used up three right-handed rivals
Demaree, Anderson and Perritt.

CARATS FROM THE BIG DIAMOND

Brooklyn and Pittsburgh will have
the local field 10 themselves to-day at
Ebbets Field. The Giants and Reds
played their game yesterday.
Matty is taking his Reds TO River
head, Long Island. to-day for an exhi-
bition with Joe Cassidy's semi-profes-
sionsl club.
Cincinnati's victory put the Rhine
lsnders within one percentage point OF
the Cardinals and third place.
The New York Giants have purchased
Catcher Snyder from Brooklyn. The
cub backstop warmed up Demsree prior
to yesterdays game.
Fred Toney gave the big crowd q
hearty laugh in running 70 first In the
third. He dropped a ball dead mid
way between the plate and third. II
would have been a hit even for George
Gibson, but Heinie Zim got Fred by ten
feet.
Toney is the one big factor in Gin
cinnati's success, for the other pitch
srs are unreliable, and even q smuggling
team must have battery support. When
Toney shut out the Giants yesterday
he rung up his twenty-second victory
Of the season.
Because OF the wonderful hitting

have suffered very few shut-outs this

was enough for Wyckoff, and EngeI
went in to pitch, but his first offaring
was hit safely by Getz, and Ross came
home with the tieing run and Fuller
