YERKES PITCHED GREAT BALI.
He Bad No
Trouble
in
Defa'.inj
Kcltris.
Mr. Yerkes will do. If thsre wm
any doubt about it that doubt was dis
pelled yesterday. Eii pitching was of
the phenomenal order. Reading could
not do anything wita his delivery, and
it ws Dy the merest chance, in fact by
a doubtful decision, that they escaped
being shut out. Up to the nigbto inuiug
they got but oue hit from the lauky
youngster, and in the whole game they
succeeded in securing but sis. It was
in the tigiitii inning, aftor he had
struck oat two nun, that he Ut up on
the boys in blue. Thuy touched him
tip pretty livaly for a while, but when
he thought they had enough be shut
down on his liberality and retired tho
ship.
The fielding of the Scranton was also
of the star variety. Every man of the
infill,:, including the battery, covered
himself with glory. Patchen male
wonderful stops of wide twisters from
the Yorkes catapult; Masaey made a
one-banded stop of u hot liner that
evoked ringing applause. Yerkes, Poe
lan and Wetzel each made a wonderful
stop. Weitlake had five assists and
figured in one of the two double plays
In the outfield Hoi?aa got iu bis usual
running catch, this time going from
Mt center to deep right for a long
drive. Not an error was made.
Reading played a good gams, but it
would take the superlative of good to
beat or evn equal the kind of ball put
no by Scranton yesterday. Our own
Leidy made bit first appearance with
Reading in tbis city and was given an
ovation. It evidently rattled him for
after he was given his base on balls he
got caught napping at fim. Goodhart,
who formerly caught for Scranton,
made two of the six hits off Yerkes.
Ia the batting all the ScrautouUnj
sbowed np wnll with the exception of
Slaltz and Yerkes, although tne latter
made one lucky drive wiiiah brought
in a ma. No runs were secured until
the fourth inning. Masiey made a
single, stole second and c ime boms on
Torreyion'i failure to field VVestlaks's
hard bit. Wetzel opened up the fifth
with a beautiful three bagger and
cnnie in on Patchen's double.
Wetzel also started the run-getting
in the seventh. He drove a slow one
to third and Henry threw it in
among the carriages back of first base,
allowing llr. Wetzel to score aa un
earned run. Patchen knocked one to Tor
reyson which the old flood sufferer was
too slow In getting to firat. Msssey
sent a sharp on to center field and as
Lidy misjudged it, 3Ia8ey was on
third before it could b fielded Into the
diamond. Patchen Bcored on it and
Massey soon after tallied one on
Phelan's Mt. A hit by Westlake, an
error on Hogan's straight up fly, a bit
by Patchen, a three baggtir by ilsy
ana K pretty single by Phelan, netted
four runs. We alio got one in the
ninth by hits Dy Rogers and Yerkes.
Reading's only ran was made In the
eighth inning by Goodhart.
The appended score tolls the whole
slory to the initiated:

The Giants are very thankful that th y

attend the State league mooting.
Tho Baltimore club Iibh secured Pitcher

Kx-Piiciier Charles Swenney, of tho old
Provldeuce team, is in jail in San Fran
cisco, charged with murder. He shot and
killed his man in a saloon quarrel. For
years Sweeney has been a moral wreck,
and has always shown nn inclination to
ward homicide while in his cups.
President Young has written to Mo
Graw, o Baltimore, warning him that he
mnst slop his promiscuous abme of um
pires under penalty of being blacklisted.
All loveri of respectable ball playing will
nppland llr. Young for that act, but lie
Graw is by no means tho only offender of
that kind on the ball hold.
According to President Young, of the
National lengne, about forty protests bavo
been received from league clubs this sea
son, only tw of which bavo b'en uphold.
Protests based on errors of judgment on
the part of an umpire got but little atten
tion. It is only those based on a miscon
struction of tho playing rules that recelvo
consideration.

WHIRLS OF THE WHEEL.
Florey & Holt returned another stolen
wheel yesterday to its owner in Utlca,
Johnson and Bliss are entered in the
races to be decided at bteubeuville, O., on
uuiy in annj Aug. i.
Louisville. Ky.. will soon have a thrin.
lap track lor cyclers'. It is inteudod to
make it adaptable only to wheelmen.
The Cleveland, O., Wheel club thinks It
has a line class A team in Graves, Smith,
Cotton, Baskins, Merrill and Cindomuller.
Tho Auust race meot should awake
much Interest In blcxcle elides as all the
local cracks will participate, and many
new riders will euter as novices.
D. L, Foote Is an enthusiastic wheelman
and a successful trainer. Mr. Footo will
train both Gregory aud White fur the
races to be held at the Driving Park
iiug. .
Oue of the most promising riders of this
city is Charles Coleman, of Groon Ridge.
He Is only sixteen years old, but never-
melons is a strong riuor, and very speedy,
Bis staying qualities are somewhat re
markable. Chairman Raymond, of tho Ljmzus of
American Wheelmen racing board, is do
ing everything Iu his power to keep pro
fosBiouul tricks out of class B races. Ha
thiuki the biist way to bring about this re
sult Is to abolisb team work iu all compe
ti'iioiia. Charles Allnui, of Baltimore, Is planning
for a series of professional races this fail
which are intended to be a big thing in
their way. They are to be held in a build
ing now in rour of erection iu Lawrence
v i 11 f. Pa. Zimmerman and all tho iutur
uatioual cracks are to be invited to parti
cipate. It is probably that IT. G. Csnfleld, chair
man of the St. I.o-.iU racing beard of the
L. A. W., will be asked to resign that of
fice. Au investigation is now being cm
ducted. Canlleld is charged with neglect
of cfilcial iluti-saud failure to keep rjcords
of time, made by cyclists.
The value placed ou the speed of tho
cracks by tho eastern clubs is as follows:
Sanger and Johnson, scratch; Bald, 20
yards; Tyler and Murphy, 35 yards: Taylor
and Titus, !IU yards; Kennedy, 40 yardsi
Graves, iu yards; Coleman, ti5 yards; C. 11.
Callahan, "3 yards; Arnold, U.l yards; Senu
and iltllor, KHJ yards; Brandt,, 110 yards.
The greatest cycling event over given In
the southern hemisphere, accordiug to the
laicht Australian papers, was the twenty
four hour race in Melbourne in May. It
was witnessed by lO.MiU people. Eigh
teen men started and six of them finished.
G. V. Christ was the wluuer. lie covered
401 miles uud 1,3-1? yards. II. Beesou was
kecond with !lk4 iniliH u:nl 1,343 yurdj.
The n'luual race meeting of the Pennsyl
vania Bicycle club, which is to ho held on
the Tioga Cricket chin's track ou An.:. IS,

ouisideof Hilly Taxis Philadelphia cannot
prudnc i a fast class II rider, the club's
counmUvi Iihh decided to run off uuly class
A events, thei 'by holding out au induce
ment to all kimon-puru amaieiirs to tuku
part. There will be twelve races, which
will include events for tho speediest aud
slowest pedal pushers.
Tlix racing men nt tho big meetings are
ag.iiu resorting to loafing Indies, aud as a
re -nit they s;'oil many races. Race meet
officials have acted very generously w ith
rider who have tailed to get inside the
lime limits place t upon their racos and
have granted second trials. Invariably
when a referee allows a race that has been
declared olf be reason of the men not fin
ishing inside the limit to he run over, the
time is always fuside tho limit.
Three casos servo to show that time limits,
aa placed, are ineffective iu producing
giiod racing. The racing board, it ib said,
is fceriously c nsidei ing the matter of es
tablishing a rule iiiakinir it noossnry that

Mill", tho long-distance rider, cured him
self ef indigestion by breaking tho record
from London to Edinburgh, and claims to
have been put Into tirst-oiasj physical con
dition by hU hard 3-d.iy grind from the
end of England to the end of Scotland.
Such Spartan cures of phynical lassitude
are not uncommon among wheelmen. C.
m. i'uircuild, oue or cuicago's most per
sistent century riders, undertook loan
epius early iu the season to work off a feel-
lug of general illness, and succeeded. The
comparative gontleuess and steadiness of
cyeling ns an cierciie makes the system
practicable.
Zimmerman writes as follows to a friend
in this country in reaard to bis defeat in
Italy: "It perhaps seems strange that I
was uelented in Florence, ihe Italians
are tricky. Every other moment they
started and took several lengths from ut,
sometimes even thirty yards; so in order
for one of us to win we were obliged to
watch all of them. When one of them
stui ted oue of us followed and compelled
him to keep tLo outside for several laps.
All the Italiaa racing men use high gears
uud can keep up u great sprint for three
iups, which is hard tor us who are not used
to such tactics. Posta and Poutncehy ere
very daugsrons racers when they have
uaveral countrymen to assist them."
