Umpire Browns Ruling Against Chief
 Meyers "A Warning To Bully Managers

while Raymond was on third, David son on second and Frank Fay on first.
 Raymond came home on the hit, but Davidson was cut short at the plate by a perfect throw from Mar tin to Skiff. Davey was called out. Tn sliding into the home plate, Davey happened to rip Sklffs bloomers. As the New Havensr attempted to rise, SEiff pushed him in the face with his hand. To this the Elm City man took objections and quickly bounding up on his feet, walloped Sziff with a heal thy right handler. Sl1iff returned the blow. It looked like the making of a lively bout when the other players interfered and separated the pugiIts- tic ball players. They were both put out of the game. Roth was called in from right field and took David sons place at third, while Bull sub- stituted for Roth in right field.
 Aside from the incidents mentioned
 about the event probably could be
 called a ball game Certainly it was in teresting and exciting. Yet it brought
 out one thing and that is that the
 Eastern league has at last come tC
 its senses and the era when rowdy. ism and naggiug on the part of the
 players and managers has gone ou
 of existence. Instead of hooting Um pire Brown, the 1900 fans who wit messed the opening game at Newfielt
 Park yesterday should have congratu lated him for doing his duty and set | ting an example that is bound to de velop much good.
 Brown is perhaps the most competent umpire on the O'Nen circuit. He is fair and considerate. He removed Chief Meyers from the game because he had good reason for making such a. move. | Also he was-duty- bound to do so. Chief Meyers has no one but him self to blame. Perhaps he is "a star''-as he himself admits he must understand one thing ! and that is that he nor any other manager will be permitted to tell an umpire how to run a game no more than an umpire will be permitted to tell him how to build his team.

And as the confabs came up and went out of existence His Honor Mayor Clifford B. Wilson---the man who threw out the first ball-smiled and the band played on and on. And the mayor had ample reason for smiling. He had supposed that it was a ball game that he had been invited to attend-and not a pugilistic dem onstration from the New Haven con tngent.

Centralia, Washn., Nov. 16.-Reports Of a clash yesterday between posse members and alleged Industrial Work CTS of the World said one posse mem Der, believed to be John Haney, 4g, a rancher of Terino. Washn.. fell dur ing the shooting.
 A posse of forty men today secured the country in the neighborfiood of yesterdays fight. and special detail of men has been charged with. the recovery of Haneys body
 Members of tl1e first posse said it was probable the recovery of Hauey' S body would be attended by further bloodshed.. because of the fact that he fell within 100 yards of Hunters Ca- bin, wherein the T. W. VI. were believ- ed to be still lurking. The place is surrounded by dense woods. Every outlet is being guarded.
 Captain Lloyd Dysart, local com mander of the posse in the district, was directing teday's operations.
 We have verified the fact that Ha- ney fell when fired upon from ar71- bush" sid Dysart. "A comrade saw him drop at the first velley.
 "Haney, with three other men,, had become separated from the main party and were working their way toward Hunters Cabin, where, according to information, which we had obtained, Bert Bland.

RESCUED FROM LEAKING :.
 BARGE OFF NEW LONDON

Adrift on a badly leaking barge, Capt. John Mccarthy of Fall River attracted the attention of the Provi- dence line freight steamer New Haven off New London in Long Island sound at o'clock Saturday morning and was rescued, together with his dog, in spite of the heavy sea which pre- vailed.
 The barge. the Dorothy. laden with coal bound for Providence, was par tially waterlogged when the New Haven approached on her way from New York. The sole lifeboat of the barge was useless. Captain Rowland of the New Haven ordered his ship stopped and First Pilot Olweiler and four men of the New Haven's crew lowered a lifeboat and after a lively experience in the high seas reached the Dorothy. Captain Mccarthy and his dog jumped in and were brought safely to the New Haven. which then proceeded to Providence.
 Upon arrival at the wharf Captain Mccarthy said that the Dorothy. which was loaded with roo tons of anthracite coal for Curran & Burton, Inc, was the stern barge of several in tow of the New London tug Minnie, and that the sea in the sound was so heavy that the tug was heading for New London for a harbor when through jumping in the seaway the towing butts which held the hawser which connected the Dor othy with the barge ahead were pulled out ''by the roots" This sent the barge adrift. and as the water dashed over her square bow she commenced to leak badly.
 The tug kept on for New London, a short distance away. Captain Huntiey evidently intending to get the remain ing barges into a safe place before he attempted to pick up the runaway and probably unaware that the barge was leaking and in great danger.
 The Dorothy was well down by the head when the Providence line freishter came along, but Captain Mo- Carthy thinks she may have been caught by the Minnie before she san& or drifted ashore.
 Captain Rowland of the New Haven after arriving at Providence, and after seeing that the rescued Fall River mar had been served with good hot breakfast, said that sending out boz barge of the type which have no an- ehors and which are simply oblons boxes. with a hfeboat that had big hole in it, which was the case of the Dorothy, looked like negligence on the part of somebody. The cargo of an- thracfte was insured.

MOVES REAL ESTATE co.
 BUYS NEW YORK BUILDING

|. In. buying the modern six story Building at 118 William street for
 the future home of his realty organ
 ization, the New York Sun on Sum- day said that Charles F. Moves has
 furnished the best evidence of his own sincerity in warning downtown busi-
 ness men to buy their own business
 homes before they find themselves
 homeless and unable to buy space in their own business districts. MT. Moves was probably the first real es-
 tate expert to foresee the conditions
 which exist in the downtown congested district and he early began preaching
 the doctrine of own your business
 honae:'
 Mir. Moves has taken the William
 street structure from Elias A. Cohen, president of the Broadway John Street corporation. The building adjoins the twenty story office structure now go-
 ing up at the northeast corner of John street and William streets and is just south of the Lehn & Fink prop Eerty at 120 William street and 79 John
 street recently purchased by Dwight & Hilles for the Employers Liability Assurance company.
 After the work of n1odernizing the
 building is completed Mir Moves will
 house the btfsiness of the Charles F.
 Ncyes Company in the first three floors. It is one of the largest single structures now available for occupan- cy in the downtown section. The addi- tional depth of thirty feet over the usual 25&180 feet lot adds eonsidera- bly, to the value of the property, not only as to ground food size but also as to light and air 0 nthe upper stories The Moves company whose head is Charles F. Moves, son of MT and Mrs. c. D. Moves of IS Lincoln avenue, this city, began business in 1898 in a small office in 61 Beekman street, New York. A few years later it moved to S2 Cedar street. where it remained until the property was purchased by the Mutual Life Insurance Company for the Harvey Fiske Building. The company was the first tenant to move into the Wyllis Building at 92 William street in April, 1903, where the busi- ness has steadily grown from $200,000 a year to $50, 10000
 MT. Moves investment in the 11S William street property will be about $25e, o66. The remaining three or four floors of the structure will be leased to insurance firms.
 Associated in the active management Eof the Charles F. Moves Company are Fisher P. Weaver, Frederick H. Lewis William B. Falconer. Joseph D. Croan, Francis W. Gridley, Edwin c. Benedict Stanley K. Green. Walter J.. Cashel Charles F. Heller. William ]. O'Connor Thomas Christie. A. E. Himmelmann [ and Thomas D. McBride. The agency department of the company is under | fhe control of F. s.
