Griffith tried to stretch his Fourth of July celebration to cover the fifth, and he failed, as any small boy could have told him had lie chosen to ask. All the hilltop set pieces were on view again yesterday, but powder and punk were scarce, and the pin wheels refused to revolve with any great regulari¬ ty. The "day after" exhibition was a la¬ mentable failure. After they got through the 11ighlanders seemed to have their eye¬ brows singed but that was about all they had to show for the day's performance. Worst of all was a set piece, the center of which was young Mr. Hogg. The wheels revolved all right, but not even a dull glow suffused the central figure, and, after the affair had sputtered a little while, Griffith took it down and carted It away, to the huge delight of little "Jakey" Stahl and his playmates, who had the hose turned on the Griffith fireworks all the afternoon. Rudely speaking in the vernacular, the Washington* put the wood to Hogg and drove him to the bench, and, although they failed to hit Puttman very hard they de¬ feated the Highlanders by the score of 8 to 1. the 1 representing an expiring effort to avoid the disgrace of a shutout. For all the poor showing before a typical firth of July crowd the Highlanders now and then showed ashes of their pristine glory, and to tell the plain, unvarnished truth, the hilitoppers could not bat for the simple and sufficient reason that young Mr. Fatten, a ch ip with a snub nose and a "wicked left," pitched a pretty smart game. As the game went on the young Washlngtonlan swung his left harder and harder, and tilted his nose higher and higher. Patten Waxes Scornful. Scorn was enthroned upon his freckled countenance, and toward the finish he gave the local tribe a few samples of the baby mare For a young man who had been so humble Just a day ago the change was rerr.arkabte.

If Important, catch, and from that moment he was anathema to the fickle populace. In the n:a<n, though, the crowd was lenient with Its fallen Idols, and Hogg was the recipient <>: a friendly demonstration when he was compelled to hobble reluctantly to the bcnch. The visitors began to take interest in young Mr Hogg right at tlie start. In the opening Inning they took all the steam out of i.im, anil it was early apparent that he would fizzle out before the game had gone far Jon.-s began the trouble with a rat¬ tling two-bagger to deep center field, and after Hill had sacrificed Knoll brought hiin II,mo with a neat single right out past the Middle euiMHk That waa all for the mo¬ ment. hut In the second session the trouble e< rraiied Into the grounds and unloaded. Farewell to Mr. Hogg. Mullen sat down after a whirling fly to Klb.rfeld and then Hogg gave Cassidy a base on balls, which was the advance agent of adversity. Kittredge's scorching drive t ) center sent Cassidy around to third, and tl n Hogg hit Fatten under the left clav¬ icle. where it Is said to hurt. Patten con¬ torted In the approved style for the requir¬ ed time and then roosted on first, where he looked too tall and healthy for comfort. II"Kg promptly flung three balls at Jones and then whirled a strike over the dish. The next was a foul and therefore also a strike. "Chuck straight." besought a rooter, "and take a chance." Hut Hogg shot the ball In wide and forced a run across the platter This was the beginning of the end. or thereabouts. I'p prounced li : anil slapped a safe one to center.

Clear hitting gave the vlsrors two more tallies In the eighth, and these proved two more than enough. Saved From Whitewash. The Highlanders threatened in the open¬ ing Inning, but the threat was about all. for ttempted double steal resulted In the retirement of the frizzle haired Dougherty at the plate After that the Highlanders nev.-r even so much as threatened until they struck the ninth Inning. Then, in an¬ swer to the Imploring bleacherttes, they saved themselves from a shut out. "Jimmy" Williams punched a hard single to rltfht. but Yeager fell a prey to the ubiquitous Stahl Chase, however, contrib¬ ute.) a pretty drive to tenter and Williams scored the solitary run The Highlanders left last night for Washington, where they will try to get back a few games.

The local "fans'" were gratified over the fact that the Nationals had once more jumped out of last place, and will be still more pleased when Informed that Second Baseman Charley Hickman has been pur¬ chased from the Detroit club, and will re¬ port to Manager Stahl at once. As soon as It became known that Hick¬ man had fallen out with the Detroit man¬ agement President Noyes started negotia¬ tions for this sterling player, and has kept It up ever since, the final terms being agreed upon this morning. Manager Armour at first insisted upon having either Hughes or Patten in exchange for Hickman, but President Noyes could not see his way clear to part with either one of these twlrlers. The negotiations then turned to a cash basis, and the De¬ troit demands were finally agreed to, a stiff price being paid for Hickman's release. Charley Hickman Is undoubtedly one of the most popular players in professional base ball and Is a credit to the game He has played the outfield, pitched In his earliei days and filled all the Infield posi¬ tions I,ast season he played forty-five games at second base for Detroit, had 88 put outs and 145 assists, with only 13 er¬ rors. His work was such that It was the general opinion that he would be the regu¬ lar man at second for the Tigers this sea¬ son. bt t Manager Armour gave Schaeff'er the preference, sending Hickman to the In batting, Hickman stood sizteenth In the long list of American League players participating in 12t! games, and had an aver¬ age of .282. heading many of the best hitters In the business. He Is a personal friend of Manager Stahl and will doubtless welcome the news that he Is coming to a team that will appreciate his services. The players of the local club were all jubilant over the fact that "Hick" was coming to Washington, and several of the New York players were positive In their as¬ sertions that he was Just the man the \'a- tlonais needed. The Nationals arrived home late last night and all were quickly In their beds for a fcood night's sleep. Outfielder Anderson was seen this morning by a Star reporter and denied all the stories that he ever contemplated Jumping the team or that he wis dissatisfied with his present berth Charley Jones, who is very close to Ander¬ son. said to the reporter that it was a shame the way the papers had gotten after the big fellow, as he was under great men¬ ial distress on account of his wife's illness and that there was no other cause for An¬ derson's absence. Anderson is well fixed financially and when he received the tele¬ gram announcing his wife's illness, he threw base ball to the winds and hurried home. He has been at home every hour possible the club could spare him. and would not be playing now but for the fact that Manager Stahl has impressed on him the fact that the team needs his services very badly. Manager Stahl said this morn¬ ing tha: Anderson has been pi,lying excel¬ lent ball at Boston and New York and has strengthened the Nationals very noticeably. Pitcher Adams had not reported to Man¬ ager Stahl up to noon, but he is expected in Washington this afternoon. The New York team reached the city early this morning and is in fine shape for the series with the Nationals that starts this afternoon at American League Park. Orth Is slated to work for the Highlanders, while Jack Townsend will be oa the firing line for the locals. VICT0BY FOB COMMISSIONERS. Gunton Outbatted and OutSelded by the District Boys. 1. e Uunton-Temple team of the Sunday School league met defeat at the hands of the Commissioner* at American League Park yesterday afternoon by a score of fl to 1. Many believed on account of the fact that Gunton-Temple defeated the Commissioners on the Fourth that they would again administer a similar dose, but after the fourth Inning the Commissioners left little doubt In the minds of the spec¬ tators as to which team would win out. Gunton was weak at the bat and only managed to connect safely with the sphere four times, while the Commissioners had eight blngles to their credit. Umpire Quill causcd a storm of disapproval to come from the grand stand when he called As- qulth out at second In the middle of the game, but barring this incident the contest passed off quietly. Harding managed to get two of the four hits made by Gunton- Temple, and proved that he Is about the best batter on the team. Langley made a fine catch on Keane's foul fly back of first base, wlille Brown made a sensational catch In right field. Gunton-Temple replaced Donaldson In the fll'th Inning with Ogle, when many hoped that Carr would be sub¬ stituted, and It is more than probable that if he had the score would have been much smaller than It was at the close of the con¬ test. Both catchess. Gates and Woodward, did good work for their respective teams, each getting a hit. The score: COMMISSIONERS. R. H. O. A IE.

Columbia Won Battling Good Game From Aloysius. Two games were scheduled in the Cap¬ ital City I.eague yesterday, but Jupiter Pluvius broke up the one on the White Lot. while the Columbia Athletic Club and the Aloysius Club had better luck at the Coliseum. This game was a rattling good contest. The Athletic Club won. 9 to 8. In seven innings, but they were driven out to the last ounce to have a nose advantage at the finish. Ricker and Curnane were about equally effective, the latter's wlldness offsetting his advantage In keeping the hits down. Rick¬ er was hit hard in the fifth inning, five safe ones successively executed driving three runs over the plate. In this Inning two languished on the sacks because of a great catch of a fly ball by Salb, the ball being caught not over two inches from the ground. Columbia's other runs resulted from com¬ binations of errors and bases on balls. In the last Inning Taylor walked, went to second on a wild pitch and scored on Hab- son's single. Four hits and two gifts pushed a quar¬ tet of Aloysius players over the rubber in the second, and three more runs were add¬ ed in the fourth on a base on balls, an er¬ ror and two bingles. An error and two outs scored the eighth run for the losers. Amey made a one-handed stop, touched second and completed a double play on the throw to first. Halloran ran back into right field and pulled down two hard flies. Other features were Salb's good work in right and Stone's and Barthalow's batting. The score: COLUMBIA A. C. AB. R. H. O. A. K.

In an opinion filed by presiding Judge Weiss today, dissolved the preliminary injunction restraining Pitcher Wilts# and Outfielder Hayden from playing with the York Tri-gtate base ball team. The temporary injunction was secured n wMk ago by the Baltimore Eastern League club, from which the two players jumped on June 21. The case was heard last Saturday and Monday. Judge Weiss, In his opinion, says that "the termination of the relationship with the defendants, unbecoming and unjusti¬ fiable as It was, does not beget a situa¬ tion which would warrant the continu¬ ance of the Injunction. It would not com¬ pel the defendants to return to the serv¬ ice of the complainant. All It would ac¬ complish is their restraint from playing with the Tork Athletic Association. "The purpose is by such restraint to compel their return to the complainant, but this is not the province of a prelim¬ inary Injunction obtained after the act done. It may be done on final hearing." The court says that a preliminary In¬ junction may be made mandatory only In exceptional cases, and adds that "when the Injunction was served the new rela¬ tion was consummated and the case does not present features so exceptional as to take It out of the rule. "The violation of the contract, whether considered In respect of the breach of its affirmative or negative provisions, does not present a case which would Justify a chancellor In making an order mandatory in its nature. "The preliminary injunction cannot re¬ store the defendants to the service of the complainant, nor compel them to cancel the contract with the York Athletic As¬ sociation. "There is another view which inclines the court to refuse the motion to continue the injunction. The York Athletic Associa¬ tion is a party to the contract with the defendants, and whatever rights It may have, If any. cannot be passed upon In this proceeding. "It has at least a right to be heard be¬ fore the contract may be declared Invalid. "We are brought to the conclusion that the continuance of the injunction would not only not restore the defendant play¬ ers to the Baltimore Base Ball Company, complainants, but that It could not nul¬ lify the contracts entered Into with the York Athletic Association, and that there is no warrant under the facts disclosed to make the Injunction mandatory. "The motions to continue the prelim¬ inary injunctions are overruled and the injunctions dissolved." Operation for Lajole. A special from Cleveland says that Man- ager-Champion Lajole's foot is in such bad condition that his physician, Dr. M. H. Castle, announced last night that he would not be able to play ball for three weeks at the earliest and would be confined to bed for a week. Lajoie's foot showed no improvement this morning, and Dr. Castle put his patient under the Influence of chlor¬ oform. and. with the assistance of Pitchers Donahue and Rhoades, lanced the ankle. With Lajole out of the harness and Joss and Rhoades on the invalid list, the Cleve- | land team will no doubt have rough sled¬ ding for a few weeks. Mrs. Delahanty Loses. According to authentic reports from To¬ ronto yesterday the Canadian court of ap¬ peals has deprived the widow and daughter of Ed Delahanty. the late base ball player, of damages they recently won in the lower Canadian court as a result of the death of the famous outfielder. Delahanty bought a ticket from Detroit to Buffalo Just two years ago, and boarded a Michigan Central train for Buffalo. While near Bridgeburg, Canada, across the Niag¬ ara river from Buffalo, he became disorderly while Intoxicated, it is alleged, and was ejected from the car. He got on the Inter¬ national bridge and was drowned in the Niagara river. Mrs. Delahanty and her daughter brought action against the Michigan Central, charg¬ ing negligence, and the case was tried at Welland, Canada, some time ago. The jury brought in a verdict of $3,000 for the widow and fi.OOO for the daughter. The Michi¬ gan Central then took the case to a higher court. Base Ball Notes. Nationals and New Yorks start a series of four games today. "Ladies day" tomorrow. It will probably be Townsend against Al¬ bert Edward Orth. A double by Jones followed by a timely single by Knoll has a good look. Hunter Hill has doubtless come around all right, as he hammered out a double and a single yesterday. Talking of disappointments, how about the New Yorks? The Nationals were due for a slump, but the Highlander* have been going oft In sudh a way as to drive Griffith to the "bug" house. The Nationals and St. Louis are doing the grasshopper act with the tail end posi¬ tion. The Browns are there today while we were there yesterday. Nothing can be gained by mixing base ball with the law. The Harrisburg court's deci¬ sion was all right from a common senso point of view, as the Baltlmores have been getting along very well since the desertion of Heydon and Wiitse. Lajoie, Flick. Parent and Slagle have made five hits five times at bat. Bransfleld has stolen more bases than he did all last season. If there is anybody who thinks that one ball player cannot make a difference with a professional nine look at the work of the New Yorks with Elberfeld on and Elberfeld off. Willie Keeler has taken a slump Iji his batting of late, but he still leads the High¬ landers with an average of 303. The Sporting Life well observes that "what is most needed in base ball is ready acquiesence to the decisions of the umpire, right or wrong." First Baseman Jordan of the Baltimore Ciub -has been promised a bonus of $1,000 and a salary of $500 per month to Jump to the outlaw league. With two men playing as Cooley and Geier are playing today, there is no rea¬ son why the Boston Nationals would not be In at least fifth place today..Boston Herald. "Jake Weimer has :he hoodoo sign on me," remarked Jimmy Sebring. "He knows it, too. and is so sure that I can't hit him that he tells me Just what kind of a ball he is going to pitch every time, and still I can't get them safe. If I had to bat against him every day I wouldn't be in the big league, for I'd have a batting average of about .015.".Pittsburg Press. Jerry Donovan, catcher for the Williams- port base ball team, early yesterday morn¬ ing effected the rescue of two of his fellow players. McCarthy and Hlnchman, who were sleeping in an upstairs room of the Hotel Savoy, where they boarded, when the building caught fire. Donovan made his way up to their room through smoke so dense that he had to feel his way, awakened and led them, scantily clad, to safety. The hotel was partially destroyed. Several guests and some of the helj» also had nar- row escapes. A special from Coatesville, Pa., says that frlctioi' in the Coatesville Ilase Ball Club has caused the release of First Baseman McDonald, who has been signed with Al- toona. and the suspension of Tlbblts. Mc- Crane and Ward, the former two being fined $50 each, the latter |25. It was al¬ leged that the western and eastern fac¬ tions were at some difference, the latter getting the worst of the deal. Grlffen, late of Baltimore: Bayard Sharpe of the Boston Nationals, and Miller, formerly with Johns¬ town, have been signed. Other fast players will be signed, among thexn being Harry Arndt of the St. Louis Nationals. McCrane, Ward and Tlbblts quit because McDonald was released. RACES AT BRIGHTON. Four Favorites in Front Rewarded the Betting Talent. The annual summer meeting of the Brighton Beach Racing Association opened under the most favorable conditions yester¬ day. The weather was all that could be desired, the card bristled with attractive features and the crowd, which was close to 20.000 persons, waxed enthusiastic all the afternoon. The Brighton Mile, weight-for¬ age. was the star feature, which was pro¬ ductive of a sensational race and a sterling victory by John A. Drake's Ort Wells over August Belmont's Beldame and James R. Keene's Delhi. Ort Wells had taken part in only one race previous to yesterday's affair, and In that event he was third to Broomstick and Proper In a fast mile. He has been late In coming to hand, but when Enoch Wishard sent him to the post yester¬ day the smart men. or rather some of them, knew enough to bet, with the result that the King Eric colt was backed down to 8 to 1. Beldame, meanwhile, was always an odds-on favorite, while Delhi receded from 0 to 5 to 3 to 2. with Oxford, the only other | starter .at long odds. Startitr Cassidy caught' the small field at i the post directly in front of the grand stand to a splendid send-off. although In j the quick rush for an advantage, Delhi .- pinch*! off and Ntcol compelled to go to the outside with the Keen® colt, who curled up in the middle of the bactatretch. com¬ pletely done to a turn by the fast pace. Beldame. In the meantime. w«l taken to the front by O'Neill, but she never tot away from Ort Weiia, In aplte of the fast gait at which she traveled. It was on the far turn that Sperling made his run with the Drake coit and he collared the Belmont mare so quickly that the cro<wd cried out In surprise. Aa taiey turned Into the Btrctch Ort Wells assumed command In a lordly way and O'Neill put Beldame under the whip, but the Drake colt pame on under a hard drive and won In royal style by a length In 1.381-5, one-ftfth of a second slower than the best record for the track, hung up by Hermls last year, wtoen he de¬ feated Beldame at the Beaoh In tlie Test handicap. Delhi was six length® behind Beldame, struggling home a length before Oxford. The fractional time for the race was as follows: 0.13. 0.24 4-5, 0.38 3-5, 0.43 8-5. 1.00 4-5. 1.13 3-5, 1.26 2-5, 1.38 1-6. Woodford Clay won two races during the afternoon. In the Distaff stakes, for two- pear-old fillies, five furlongs, he ran first and second, respectively, with Running Water and Single Shot, both Lyne and O'Neill going to a heavy drive In the stretch and the former taking the race by half a length In 1.01. The entry was the hottest kind of a choice at even money. James R. Keen's Voter Ally B&llotta, 12 to 5, after poor handling by Nlcol, finished third, six lengths away. Clay also scored with Angler, a 0 to 10 favorite, who graduated from the maiden class In the last race, at a mile and a six¬ teenth. Lyne waited with Angler for three- quarters of a mile and then ran over Peter Wimmer's Chrysolite, 10 to 1, and beat him easily by two lengths in 1.48. with Ismail- Ian. a good thing, a head out of the place. Dave Johnson's Roseben, a public idol nowadays, and a better weight carrier than Reliable, won the first race, at six furlongs. In remarkable fashion. Picking up 135 pounds and backed oft the boards, the big horse trailed Lady Amelia. 3 to 1, the pace¬ maker, to the head of the stretch, and then, passing her quickly, he won in a gallop In 1.12 2-5, two-flfths of a second behind Lux Casta's track record. Lady Amelia lasted long enough to beat Bad News a head for the place. Roseben gave ten pounds to Lady Amelia and twenty to Bad News. After a chapter of accidents in which five horses fell. Mr. Cotton's Alamanzor, 4 to 1. won the steeplechase without trouble. Cal- lorahatchee. 15 to 1. finished second, though at one time his rider was unseated and only escaped a fall by hanging on to the horse's neck. Bacchanal, 50 to 1. was third. Jim Newman, Nitrate and Pagen Bey, all heav¬ ily backed, sprawled over the obstacles and burned the money. Horay, 7 to 5 favorite, made all the pace in the fifth race, for two-year-olds, six fur¬ longs, and won In a drive by half a length In 1.14. P. H. McCarren's St. Estephe. 10 to 1, was second, with R. H. Wilson, Jr.'s | Lord of the Forrest, 10 to 1, third. Four favorites were victorious. INTERNATIONAL AUTO RACE. Thery of France Won James Gordon Bennett Cup. France again established her supremacy In an Internationa] automobile contest yes¬ terday In the James Gordon Bennett cup race over the Auvergne course. Thery, the French champion, winning after an excit¬ ing contest with the Italian champion, Lancia. An enormous crowd witnessed the race and gave an enthusiastic greeting to Thery as he crossed the line a winner. Soon after the start Lancia began to draw up on Thery, finally passing and gain¬ ing six minutes' lead when his machine broke down. Thereafter Thery had the race hi3 own way. finishing In seven hours and ten minutes with Cagno. another Ital¬ ian. second; Nazzari third. Callois fourth and Earp fifth. Three Americans started, but they did not make a notable showing. There was considerable surprise among the contestants at this. Lytle. who was placed twelfth and who was the only Amer¬ ican to finish, in reply to a question, said: "I had almost completed the first lap at good speed when while crossing a rut the principal lubricating tube of my machine burst beyond all possibility of repair. I continued the race, however, my mechanic¬ ian holding the tube together with his fingers for a distance of 4C0 kilometers. We were both soaked and nearly blinded by the escaping oil and were compelled to reduce our speed. This accounts for our bad position in the race. I do not know what became of the other Americana. Ding- ley completed the first lap and Tracy three laps, but neither has returned to Lans- champ. None of the American motor cars participating in the race was sufficiently speedy or appropriate for the course, and there was also much trouble with the tires. Otherwise we would have been better placed." LADIES' TENNIS TOURNEY. PasRdena Woman Won a Final at Wim¬ bledon Today. LONDON. July 0 .Miss Mary Sutton of Pasadena, Cal., won the final in the all¬ comers' ladies' tennis championship at Wim¬ bledon today, defeating Miss Wilson, the champion of Kent, 8-3, 8-5.

July 6..The Leanders, who yesterday defeated the Vespers of Philadelphia, Pa., by a length, today won the final heat In the contest for the grand challenge cup. defeating the Belgian crew by two and one-half lengths In the splen¬ did time of six minutes and 56 seconds. This Is five seconds better than yester¬ day, and Is only five seconds outside the record. Comparison of Times. The following Is a comparison of the time in which aspiring American crews have been beaten at Henley: Year. Crew.

It is Interesting to note that the Cornell Junior crew that broke the record for the American Henley course at Philadelphia. May 27, rowed the distance in 6.34. The Cornell Juniors were stroked by Chris. Cox of this city, a former Central High School boy. The Vespers on the same day rowed the distance in 6.4,1 2-5, defeating the University of Pennsylvania crew by a narrow margin and 3-5 seconds. The distance at Philadelphia Is the same as at Henley, Eng.. and the course Is of the same character.a river. Why the Ves¬ pers. who covered the course In 6.43 4-5 before they left America and were not at their best, could not do as well as 7.01 yesterday at Henley is a problem for aquatic experts.

Health Commissioner Darlington reported In New York ypsterday that 1.091.291 pounds of adulterated food were detected and condemned by his Inspectors in New York city during the single week begin¬ ning June 18. This amount, he said, equaled one-fifth of all the adulterated food dis¬ covered in the year of 1904. Commissioner Darlington attributes this Increase mainly to higher efficiency of the food inspectors. His statement was made In reply to charges preferred by the National Anti-adulteration League, that New York's health department is not doing its duty In condemning unfit foods. Bpanisb Hob Tore Man to Pieces. One of the most horrible tragedies ever enacted In a bull ring in Mexico is reported from the City of Durango. An Intoxicated spectator, who was responsible for the death of Silverlo Chlco, a famous matador, was literally torn to pieces by a mob. The sixth and last bull of the exhibition proved to be particularly large and fierce, and the cleverness of Chlco In "playing" the animal gained him great applause. Just as he lunged forward, his sword penetrating the heart of the animal, the Intoxicated spectator hurled a piece of Iron pipe. It struck the matador on the head, and he fell Insensible in front of the bull. The enraged animal gored him six times before he fell over dead. As soon as the people realised what had happened there waa a rush for the offen¬ der. He waa thrown into the ring, where hla head and limbs ware severed from his body and then hacked and torn to bits. TakeS Kodak .along wbra you leave for your vacation.

Memorial Services Held in St. Paul's Cathedral, London. Yesterday England paid to the memory of Secretary Hay a tribute seldom accord¬ ed to a foreigner when solemn memorial services were held In St. Paul's Cathedral. The Immense edifice was crowded, the seating capacity being taxed to the fullest extent. The service was fully choral, the hymns being rendered by a surpllced choir of 100 voices. The archbishop of Canter¬ bury. Dr. Davidson, wore the black gown and hood presented to him during his visit to America. Dean Gregory and Archdeacon Sinclair took part In the ser¬ vices. The bishop of Peterborough was also present, as whs the bishop of Wash¬ ington, Pa., who is visiting London. King Edward was represented by the Earl of Denbigh, lord-ln-waltlng, and Pre¬ mier Balfour, who was unable to attend, as the house of commons was In session, was represented by Malcolm O. Ramsey. The American colony was fully repre¬ sented. Including Ambassador and Mrs. Rcld and the staff of the embassy. Consul General Wynne and the staff of the con¬ sulate. Among the visiting Americans present were J. Plerpont Morgan, Rear Admiral Watson and a hundred others. At Rome a memorial service was held In St. Paul's (American) Church at the same hour at which the actual funeral was tak¬ ing place In the United Stntes.

Major Ed¬ wards, Judge Bachelor of the court of ap¬ peals at Cairo; Representative John A. Moon of Tennessee; Mr. Oyhama. Japanese minister to Italy, and other members of the diplomatic corps, besides many of the American colony, were present. Shot Wife Who Had Left Him. Joseph W. I.abell shot his wife at Rich¬ mond. Va., yesterday, tlve times, inflicting serious wounds, and then put a bullet into his own body, which probably will prove fatal. The man left letters suylng that he was compelled to take the action he did because his wife had left him. The shooting took place at the home of Mary F. Gentry. Labell called on his wife, who was living there. After a short con¬ versation he emptied his revolver at her. She was shot In the forehead, neck and shoulder, while a bullet plowed through her upper lip. knocked out several teeth. The man then rushed out Into the street, reloaded his pistol, and shot himself. Fatal Explosion in Cool Mine. By an explosion In the Tidewater coal mine, at Vivian, twenty-two miles wmt of Bluefield, W. Va., yesterday, nine miners, all of whom were Italians, were Injured and two of them died later In the hospital, while three more are In a precarious condition, with slight chances of recovery. All of the men were burned badly. The men had Just begun entering the mine, and those Injured represent all that were in the mine at the time of the explo¬ sion. They were rescued with but little dif¬ ficulty, and sent to the miners' hospital at Welch, six miles distant, by special train. Luck. From the Chleaifo News.

From the New York Herald.Griffith tried to stretch his Fourth of July

celebration to cover the fifth, and he failed,as any small boy could have told him had

lie chosen to ask. All the hilltop set pieceswere on view again yesterday, but powderand punk were scarce, and the pin wheels

refused to revolve with any great regulari¬ty. The "day after" exhibition was a la¬mentable failure. After they got throughthe 11ighlanders seemed to have their eye¬brows singed but that was about all theyhad to show for the day's performance.Worst of all was a set piece, the center of

which was young Mr. Hogg. The wheelsrevolved all right, but not even a dull glowsuffused the central figure, and, after theaffair had sputtered a little while, Griffithtook it down and carted It away, to the

huge delight of little "Jakey" Stahl and his

playmates, who had the hose turned on theGriffith fireworks all the afternoon.Rudely speaking in the vernacular, the

Washington* put the wood to Hogg anddrove him to the bench, and, although theyfailed to hit Puttman very hard they de¬feated the Highlanders by the score of 8 to1. the 1 representing an expiring effort toavoid the disgrace of a shutout.For all the poor showing before a typical

firth of July crowd the Highlanders now andthen showed ashes of their pristine glory,and to tell the plain, unvarnished truth, thehilitoppers could not bat for the simple andsufficient reason that young Mr. Fatten, a

ch ip with a snub nose and a "wicked left,"pitched a pretty smart game. As the gamewent on the young Washlngtonlan swunghis left harder and harder, and tilted hisnose higher and higher.

Patten Waxes Scornful.Scorn was enthroned upon his freckled

countenance, and toward the finish he gavethe local tribe a few samples of the babymare For a young man who had beenso humble Just a day ago the change was

sistently good work at second, he yester¬day fell down on a difficult. If Important,catch, and from that moment he wasanathema to the fickle populace. In then:a<n, though, the crowd was lenient withIts fallen Idols, and Hogg was the recipient<>: a friendly demonstration when he was

compelled to hobble reluctantly to thebcnch.The visitors began to take interest in

young Mr Hogg right at tlie start. In theopening Inning they took all the steam outof i.im, anil it was early apparent that hewould fizzle out before the game had gonefar Jon.-s began the trouble with a rat¬tling two-bagger to deep center field, andafter Hill had sacrificed Knoll brought hiinII,mo with a neat single right out past theMiddle euiMHk That waa all for the mo¬ment. hut In the second session the troublee< rraiied Into the grounds and unloaded.

Farewell to Mr. Hogg.Mullen sat down after a whirling fly to

Klb.rfeld and then Hogg gave Cassidy a

base on balls, which was the advance agentof adversity. Kittredge's scorching drivet ) center sent Cassidy around to third, andtl n Hogg hit Fatten under the left clav¬icle. where it Is said to hurt.

HICKMAN TO JOIN NATIONALS.

Local Club Paid Detroit Big Money forPlayer's Belease.

The local "fans'" were gratified over thefact that the Nationals had once more

jumped out of last place, and will be stillmore pleased when Informed that SecondBaseman Charley Hickman has been pur¬chased from the Detroit club, and will re¬

port to Manager Stahl at once.As soon as It became known that Hick¬

man had fallen out with the Detroit man¬

agement President Noyes started negotia¬tions for this sterling player, and has keptIt up ever since, the final terms beingagreed upon this morning. ManagerArmour at first insisted upon havingeither Hughes or Patten in exchangefor Hickman, but President Noyes couldnot see his way clear to part with eitherone of these twlrlers. The negotiationsthen turned to a cash basis, and the De¬troit demands were finally agreed to, astiff price being paid for Hickman's release.Charley Hickman Is undoubtedly one of

the most popular players in professionalbase ball and Is a credit to the game Hehas played the outfield, pitched In hisearliei days and filled all the Infield posi¬tions I,ast season he played forty-fivegames at second base for Detroit, had 88put outs and 145 assists, with only 13 er¬rors. His work was such that It was thegeneral opinion that he would be the regu¬lar man at second for the Tigers this sea¬son. bt t Manager Armour gave Schaeff'erthe preference, sending Hickman to theIn batting, Hickman stood sizteenth Inthe long list of American League playersparticipating in 12t! games, and had an aver¬

age of .282. heading many of the best hittersIn the business. He Is a personal friend ofManager Stahl and will doubtless welcomethe news that he Is coming to a teamthat will appreciate his services.The players of the local club were all

jubilant over the fact that "Hick" wascoming to Washington, and several of theNew York players were positive In their as¬sertions that he was Just the man the \'a-tlonais needed.The Nationals arrived home late last nightand all were quickly In their beds for a

fcood night's sleep. Outfielder Andersonwas seen this morning by a Star reporterand denied all the stories that he evercontemplated Jumping the team or that hewis dissatisfied with his present berthCharley Jones, who is very close to Ander¬son. said to the reporter that it was ashame the way the papers had gotten afterthe big fellow, as he was under great men¬ial distress on account of his wife's illnessand that there was no other cause for An¬derson's absence. Anderson is well fixedfinancially and when he received the tele¬gram announcing his wife's illness, hethrew base ball to the winds and hurriedhome. He has been at home every hourpossible the club could spare him. andwould not be playing now but for the factthat Manager Stahl has impressed on himthe fact that the team needs his servicesvery badly. Manager Stahl said this morn¬ing tha: Anderson has been pi,lying excel¬lent ball at Boston and New York and hasstrengthened the Nationals very noticeably.Pitcher Adams had not reported to Man¬

ager Stahl up to noon, but he is expectedin Washington this afternoon.The New York team reached the city

early this morning and is in fine shape forthe series with the Nationals that startsthis afternoon at American League Park.Orth Is slated to work for the Highlanders,while Jack Townsend will be oa the firingline for the locals.

VICT0BY FOB COMMISSIONERS.

Gunton Outbatted and OutSelded bythe District Boys.

1. e Uunton-Temple team of the SundaySchool league met defeat at the hands of

the Commissioner* at American LeaguePark yesterday afternoon by a score offl to 1. Many believed on account ofthe fact that Gunton-Temple defeated theCommissioners on the Fourth that theywould again administer a similar dose, butafter the fourth Inning the Commissionersleft little doubt In the minds of the spec¬tators as to which team would win out.Gunton was weak at the bat and onlymanaged to connect safely with the spherefour times, while the Commissioners hadeight blngles to their credit. Umpire Quillcauscd a storm of disapproval to comefrom the grand stand when he called As-qulth out at second In the middle of thegame, but barring this incident the contestpassed off quietly. Harding managed toget two of the four hits made by Gunton-Temple, and proved that he Is about thebest batter on the team. Langley made afine catch on Keane's foul fly back of firstbase, wlille Brown made a sensational catchIn right field. Gunton-Temple replacedDonaldson In the fll'th Inning with Ogle,when many hoped that Carr would be sub¬stituted, and It is more than probable thatif he had the score would have been muchsmaller than It was at the close of the con¬test. Both catchess. Gates and Woodward,did good work for their respective teams,each getting a hit. The score:COMMISSIONERS. R. H. O. A IE.

Columbia Won Battling Good GameFrom Aloysius.

Two games were scheduled in the Cap¬ital City I.eague yesterday, but JupiterPluvius broke up the one on the WhiteLot. while the Columbia Athletic Club andthe Aloysius Club had better luck at theColiseum. This game was a rattling goodcontest. The Athletic Club won. 9 to 8. Inseven innings, but they were driven out tothe last ounce to have a nose advantage atthe finish.Ricker and Curnane were about equally

effective, the latter's wlldness offsetting hisadvantage In keeping the hits down. Rick¬er was hit hard in the fifth inning, fivesafe ones successively executed driving threeruns over the plate. In this Inning twolanguished on the sacks because of a greatcatch of a fly ball by Salb, the ball beingcaught not over two inches from the ground.Columbia's other runs resulted from com¬binations of errors and bases on balls. Inthe last Inning Taylor walked, went tosecond on a wild pitch and scored on Hab-son's single.Four hits and two gifts pushed a quar¬

tet of Aloysius players over the rubber inthe second, and three more runs were add¬ed in the fourth on a base on balls, an er¬ror and two bingles. An error and twoouts scored the eighth run for the losers.Amey made a one-handed stop, touched

second and completed a double play on thethrow to first. Halloran ran back intoright field and pulled down two hard flies.Other features were Salb's good work inright and Stone's and Barthalow's batting.The score:COLUMBIA A. C. AB. R. H. O. A. K.

INJUNCTION DENIED.

Court Refuses to Restrain Flayers FromJumping Contracts.

IIARRISBURG. Pa.. July 8..The Dau¬phin county court. In an opinion filed bypresiding Judge Weiss today, dissolvedthe preliminary injunction restrainingPitcher Wilts# and Outfielder Haydenfrom playing with the York Tri-gtatebase ball team.The temporary injunction was secured

n wMk ago by the Baltimore EasternLeague club, from which the two playersjumped on June 21. The case was heardlast Saturday and Monday.Judge Weiss, In his opinion, says that

"the termination of the relationship withthe defendants, unbecoming and unjusti¬fiable as It was, does not beget a situa¬tion which would warrant the continu¬ance of the Injunction. It would not com¬pel the defendants to return to the serv¬ice of the complainant. All It would ac¬complish is their restraint from playingwith the Tork Athletic Association."The purpose is by such restraint to

compel their return to the complainant,but this is not the province of a prelim¬inary Injunction obtained after the actdone. It may be done on final hearing."The court says that a preliminary In¬

junction may be made mandatory only Inexceptional cases, and adds that "whenthe Injunction was served the new rela¬tion was consummated and the case doesnot present features so exceptional as totake It out of the rule."The violation of the contract, whether

considered In respect of the breach of itsaffirmative or negative provisions, doesnot present a case which would Justify achancellor In making an order mandatoryin its nature."The preliminary injunction cannot re¬

store the defendants to the service of thecomplainant, nor compel them to cancelthe contract with the York Athletic As¬sociation."There is another view which inclines the

court to refuse the motion to continue theinjunction. The York Athletic Associa¬tion is a party to the contract with thedefendants, and whatever rights It mayhave, If any. cannot be passed upon Inthis proceeding."It has at least a right to be heard be¬

fore the contract may be declared Invalid."We are brought to the conclusion that

the continuance of the injunction wouldnot only not restore the defendant play¬ers to the Baltimore Base Ball Company,complainants, but that It could not nul¬lify the contracts entered Into with theYork Athletic Association, and that thereis no warrant under the facts disclosedto make the Injunction mandatory."The motions to continue the prelim¬

inary injunctions are overruled and theinjunctions dissolved."

Operation for Lajole.A special from Cleveland says that Man-

ager-Champion Lajole's foot is in such badcondition that his physician, Dr. M. H.Castle, announced last night that he wouldnot be able to play ball for three weeksat the earliest and would be confined tobed for a week. Lajoie's foot showed noimprovement this morning, and Dr. Castleput his patient under the Influence of chlor¬oform. and. with the assistance of PitchersDonahue and Rhoades, lanced the ankle.With Lajole out of the harness and Joss

and Rhoades on the invalid list, the Cleve- |land team will no doubt have rough sled¬ding for a few weeks.

Mrs. Delahanty Loses.According to authentic reports from To¬

ronto yesterday the Canadian court of ap¬peals has deprived the widow and daughterof Ed Delahanty. the late base ball player,of damages they recently won in the lowerCanadian court as a result of the deathof the famous outfielder.Delahanty bought a ticket from Detroit

to Buffalo Just two years ago, and boardeda Michigan Central train for Buffalo. Whilenear Bridgeburg, Canada, across the Niag¬ara river from Buffalo, he became disorderlywhile Intoxicated, it is alleged, and wasejected from the car. He got on the Inter¬national bridge and was drowned in theNiagara river.Mrs. Delahanty and her daughter brought

action against the Michigan Central, charg¬ing negligence, and the case was tried atWelland, Canada, some time ago. The jurybrought in a verdict of $3,000 for the widowand fi.OOO for the daughter. The Michi¬gan Central then took the case to a highercourt.

Base Ball Notes.Nationals and New Yorks start a series

of four games today."Ladies day" tomorrow.It will probably be Townsend against Al¬

bert Edward Orth.A double by Jones followed by a timely

single by Knoll has a good look.Hunter Hill has doubtless come around

all right, as he hammered out a double anda single yesterday.Talking of disappointments, how about

the New Yorks? The Nationals were duefor a slump, but the Highlander* have beengoing oft In sudh a way as to drive Griffithto the "bug" house.The Nationals and St. Louis are doing

the grasshopper act with the tail end posi¬tion. The Browns are there today whilewe were there yesterday.Nothing can be gained by mixing base ball

with the law. The Harrisburg court's deci¬sion was all right from a common sensopoint of view, as the Baltlmores have beengetting along very well since the desertionof Heydon and Wiitse.Lajoie, Flick. Parent and Slagle have

made five hits five times at bat.Bransfleld has stolen more bases than he

did all last season.If there is anybody who thinks that one

ball player cannot make a difference witha professional nine look at the work of theNew Yorks with Elberfeld on and Elberfeldoff.Willie Keeler has taken a slump Iji his

batting of late, but he still leads the High¬landers with an average of 303.The Sporting Life well observes that

"what is most needed in base ball is readyacquiesence to the decisions of the umpire,right or wrong."First Baseman Jordan of the Baltimore

Ciub -has been promised a bonus of $1,000and a salary of $500 per month to Jump tothe outlaw league.With two men playing as Cooley and

Geier are playing today, there is no rea¬son why the Boston Nationals would notbe In at least fifth place today..BostonHerald."Jake Weimer has :he hoodoo sign on

me," remarked Jimmy Sebring. "He knowsit, too. and is so sure that I can't hit himthat he tells me Just what kind of a ballhe is going to pitch every time, and stillI can't get them safe. If I had to batagainst him every day I wouldn't be in thebig league, for I'd have a batting averageof about .015.".Pittsburg Press.Jerry Donovan, catcher for the Williams-

port base ball team, early yesterday morn¬ing effected the rescue of two of his fellowplayers. McCarthy and Hlnchman, whowere sleeping in an upstairs room of theHotel Savoy, where they boarded, when thebuilding caught fire. Donovan made hisway up to their room through smoke sodense that he had to feel his way, awakenedand led them, scantily clad, to safety. Thehotel was partially destroyed. Severalguests and some of the helj» also had nar-row escapes.A special from Coatesville, Pa., says that

frlctioi' in the Coatesville Ilase Ball Clubhas caused the release of First BasemanMcDonald, who has been signed with Al-toona. and the suspension of Tlbblts. Mc-Crane and Ward, the former two beingfined $50 each, the latter |25. It was al¬leged that the western and eastern fac¬tions were at some difference, the lattergetting the worst of the deal. Grlffen, lateof Baltimore: Bayard Sharpe of the BostonNationals, and Miller, formerly with Johns¬town, have been signed. Other fast playerswill be signed, among thexn being HarryArndt of the St. Louis Nationals. McCrane,Ward and Tlbblts quit because McDonaldwas released.

August Belmont's Beldame and James R.Keene's Delhi. Ort Wells had taken partin only one race previous to yesterday'saffair, and In that event he was third toBroomstick and Proper In a fast mile. Hehas been late In coming to hand, but whenEnoch Wishard sent him to the post yester¬day the smart men. or rather some of them,knew enough to bet, with the result thatthe King Eric colt was backed down to 8to 1. Beldame, meanwhile, was always anodds-on favorite, while Delhi receded from0 to 5 to 3 to 2. with Oxford, the only other

In the meantime. w«l taken tothe front by O'Neill, but she never totaway from Ort Weiia, In aplte of the fastgait at which she traveled. It was on thefar turn that Sperling made his run withthe Drake coit and he collared the Belmontmare so quickly that the cro<wd cried outIn surprise. Aa taiey turned Into the BtrctchOrt Wells assumed command In a lordlyway and O'Neill put Beldame under thewhip, but the Drake colt pame on under ahard drive and won In royal style by alength In 1.381-5, one-ftfth of a secondslower than the best record for the track,hung up by Hermls last year, wtoen he de¬feated Beldame at the Beaoh In tlie Testhandicap.

James R.Keen's Voter Ally B&llotta, 12 to 5, afterpoor handling by Nlcol, finished third, sixlengths away.Clay also scored with Angler, a 0 to 10

favorite, who graduated from the maidenclass In the last race, at a mile and a six¬teenth. Lyne waited with Angler for three-quarters of a mile and then ran over PeterWimmer's Chrysolite, 10 to 1, and beat himeasily by two lengths in 1.48. with Ismail-Ian. a good thing, a head out of the place.Dave Johnson's Roseben, a public idol

nowadays, and a better weight carrier thanReliable, won the first race, at six furlongs.In remarkable fashion. Picking up 135pounds and backed oft the boards, the bighorse trailed Lady Amelia. 3 to 1, the pace¬maker, to the head of the stretch, and then,passing her quickly, he won in a gallop In1.12 2-5, two-flfths of a second behind LuxCasta's track record. Lady Amelia lastedlong enough to beat Bad News a head forthe place. Roseben gave ten pounds toLady Amelia and twenty to Bad News.After a chapter of accidents in which five

horses fell. Mr. Cotton's Alamanzor, 4 to 1.won the steeplechase without trouble. Cal-lorahatchee. 15 to 1. finished second, thoughat one time his rider was unseated and onlyescaped a fall by hanging on to the horse'sneck. Bacchanal, 50 to 1. was third. JimNewman, Nitrate and Pagen Bey, all heav¬ily backed, sprawled over the obstacles andburned the money.Horay, 7 to 5 favorite, made all the pace

Thery, theFrench champion, winning after an excit¬ing contest with the Italian champion,Lancia. An enormous crowd witnessed therace and gave an enthusiastic greeting to

Thery as he crossed the line a winner.Soon after the start Lancia began to

draw up on Thery, finally passing and gain¬ing six minutes' lead when his machinebroke down. Thereafter Thery had therace hi3 own way. finishing In seven hoursand ten minutes with Cagno. another Ital¬ian. second; Nazzari third. Callois fourthand Earp fifth. Three Americans started,but they did not make a notable showing.There was considerable surprise among

the contestants at this. Lytle. who was

placed twelfth and who was the only Amer¬ican to finish, in reply to a question, said:"I had almost completed the first lap at

good speed when while crossing a rut theprincipal lubricating tube of my machineburst beyond all possibility of repair. Icontinued the race, however, my mechanic¬ian holding the tube together with hisfingers for a distance of 4C0 kilometers.We were both soaked and nearly blindedby the escaping oil and were compelled toreduce our speed. This accounts for ourbad position in the race. I do not knowwhat became of the other Americana. Ding-ley completed the first lap and Tracy threelaps, but neither has returned to Lans-champ. None of the American motor carsparticipating in the race was sufficientlyspeedy or appropriate for the course, andthere was also much trouble with the tires.Otherwise we would have been betterplaced."

BELGIANS BEATEN BY OVEB TWO

LENGTHS.

HENLEY, Eng.. July 6..The Leanders,who yesterday defeated the Vespers of

Philadelphia, Pa., by a length, today won

the final heat In the contest for the grandchallenge cup. defeating the Belgian crew

by two and one-half lengths In the splen¬did time of six minutes and 56 seconds.This Is five seconds better than yester¬day, and Is only five seconds outside therecord.

Comparison of Times.The following Is a comparison of the

time in which aspiring American crews

have been beaten at Henley:Year. Crew. Beaten by Time.1M?3.Cornell Trinity Hall 7.301N>«.Yale I.eander 7.4518P1).Argonauts Leitnder7.121901.Penn. T.enn<1er 7.051H05.Veajiers Leaniier7.01The University of Pennsylvania eight

defeated the I^ondon Rowing Club In a

qualifying round in 7.01 1-3.The record Is 6.51.It is Interesting to note that the Cornell

Junior crew that broke the record for theAmerican Henley course at Philadelphia.May 27, rowed the distance in 6.34. TheCornell Juniors were stroked by Chris.Cox of this city, a former Central HighSchool boy. The Vespers on the same dayrowed the distance in 6.4,1 2-5, defeatingthe University of Pennsylvania crew bya narrow margin and 3-5 seconds. Thedistance at Philadelphia Is the same as atHenley, Eng.. and the course Is of thesame character.a river. Why the Ves¬

pers. who covered the course In 6.43 4-5before they left America and were not at

their best, could not do as well as 7.01yesterday at Henley is a problem for

aquatic experts.
