Johnson Pitched tn Splendid Form but
Bis Support Was Poor, and Wilkes
Barre Won by Score of 6-5.
"Wllkea-Barre, Pa,, July 2. The sec
ond , game between Scranton and
Wllkes-Burre today was another line
exhibition of ball playing- and was won
by Wllkes-Barre owing to the ragged
support Johnson received. He pitched
a-irsacnlflcent ame, 'two of the hits
made off his delivery being such as
might easily been scored errors al
though they were difficult balls to han
dler Johnson struck out six batters
ad had excellent command of the ball.
-Keenan pitched well, considering that
he went Into the box much against his
Inclination, having been sick ail night.
The) 'fleWlng of Radford and Huston
Ions' with Leaotte's magnificent work
In right field were the features of the
game. The game was really won by
Bandy Grlffln on his splendid hitting

Springfield, Mass., July 2. Lovett
Waa amble to keep his curves out of the
reach of Springfield today, and the
home team won with ease. With the
exception of one or two places, each
team fielded admirably, double plays
being frequent. Up to the sixth Inning
Springfield had Providence shut out,
and it looked as though the visitors
would be blanked, but Knight came to
the rescue with the longest hit, of the
season over right field Into the river.
Knight made .fine catch In left. McDonald,--.Ounsori

The home team had everything its own

point to bo Interesting. The crowd

saw a very Interesting' contest toilay,
when Toronto defeuted Buffalo 9 to i
Chapman's team had their batting
clothes on and pounded Herndon pret
ty steadily throughout the game. Gray
was very deceptive- up to the fifth in
ning, when the visitors scored four
runs on two singles, a triple, a home
run and Meara's muff. The fielding was
generally erean, each side belnjr credit
ed with three errors. Hurst's decisions

more, last year's pennant winners, ore
in first position. The Orioles acquire
the place through their victory over
Washington, the Beaneaters losing by
one run to Philadelphia. This Is the
only change In the position of the
clubs, although th Pirates made an
other advance and continue to be a
dangerous factor in the race.

DIAMOND DUST.
Hurst Is getting a roast In Toronto.
Yesterday's defeat Is only the fourth out
of the last fifteen consecutive games.
Wllkes-Barre here tomorrow mornlnr:

noon, j .
This Is loafing day ' in the Eastern
league; the players will rest and get In
trim for two games tomorrow.
The Decoration Day rush -will not be
repeated tomorrow morning.. Tickets will
be sold at Klorey's and at the grounds
and there will be an extra entrance gala

both Inside and outside the grounds.
According to the Bangor, Me., Commer
cial, Pitcher Meaney, late of Harrlsburg,
accepted advance and transportation
money from the Bangor olub and forth
with proceeded to join Scranton. It la re
ported that ho has returned the advance
money and kept the transportation, and
that the Bangor management has ap
pealed to Nick Young to enforce the rules
and compel Meaney to report there.
Out of eight tames with Wllkes-Barre
we have dropped six. Scranton's victories
from other clubs are divided as follows:
Three out of six from Providence, two out
of six from Springfield, three out of seven
from Syracuse, live out of seven from Ro
chester, four out of nine from Buffalo,
live out of seven from Toronto. It's hard
enough luck to lose at all to the Alligators,
but it's rubbing it in to fall down six times
out of eight.

charged for round trip tickets on the Jer
sey Central, special base ball train to

SHERIFF INTERFERED.
Stopped Lost Night's l'istle Encounters in
Nantlcoko-Hrcneh Between the Leonard
and .Mitchell Factions. -
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Wllkes-Barre, Pa., July 2. Last
night a crowd of 300 people gathered at
the Xantlcoke Opera fiiouse to witness
the glove contest to take place there.
Sheriff Walters was on hand and noti
fied the principals that every one on
the premise would be arrested if the
fight came off. The battle was declared
oft and the crowd went home.
The breaking up of the fight is sup.
posed to be the work of Pitt-ton par
ties who 'had it stopped In revenge for
the stopping of the Mitchell-Gordon
fight last week.
When the foregoing special dlspatch
was shown last night to a well-Informed
Scranton sporting man, he remarked:
"The Luzerne sheriff'., action is un
doubtedly the result of personal differ
ences between the Turner and Mitchell
factions. Hard feelings began In Mils
city over a confllctlon- of dates, and
each charged the other with 'bringing
about Mayor Connell's action in this
city. The same troubles arose In Pitts
ton and now I have no doubt that
Leonard amd his manager will claim
that Mitchell and his friends caused the
sheriff's Interference in Nantlcoke. It
will all result In a determined effort to
pull off both the Leonard-Judge and
Mitchell-Gordon fights, and you can
rest assured that the four men will
come together If they have to go Into
the mines to do it."
TROUBLE AT IIEXLEY.
Coseh Courtney Insists t'pon Captain
Misrpe's Kcsicnatlou.
New York, July 2. The Mall and Ex
press has the following special cable
gram from Henley:
"Matters are not going on as they
should with Cornell Just at present.
There Is dissatisfaction among the
men.' Courtney Is getting captious and
fretful as the day nrrlves and Is find
ing fualt with the men. The latest to
fall under the ban Is Shape, who has
beenln disfavor as captain of the crew
for several days, though as a captain
he Is a mere figurehead, appointed to
transit Coustney's orders to the crew.
"The trainer has been finding fault
continually with him until finally he
toia him last night that he would not
have him any longer In tho boat as
captain, and unless he resigned he
(Courtney) would withdraw from all
further connection with the crew. As
Shape had no Idea of setting himself ud
against Courtney, the . matter was
placed before the advisers of the crew.
After a long; consultation It was de
cided that it would be better to remove
every obstacle which Courtney should
consider detrimental to the progress of
tne crew. Shape wag therefore advised
to Teslgn the captnlncy and Freeborn
was nominated and elected to fill the
vacancy. As but one week remains be
fore regatta day It Is not expected that
Freeborn will be disturbed.
'The members of the crew are In
splendid condition and are still as en
thusiastic as one could wish."

LUTHER LEAGUE MEETING.
Enthuslastlo Reports of the Recent State
Convention Heard Last Night.
An enthuslastlo meeting of the mem
bers of the Luther leagues of the city
was held in Holy Trinity church last
night to listen to the reports of the
delegates to the state convention, held
at Reading on June 25, 26 and 27. Miss
Anna von Konecny, F. H. Gerlock and
R. W. Newbuuer spoke at some length
as to the work accomplished at the
Reading convention.
. After describing In enthusiastic terms
the splendid reception and treatment
accorded the delegates at Reading Mr.
Qerlock said:
"We were told that some of the clergy
discourage the movement In many parts
of the state and elsewhere, and that
some actually oppose the formation of
societies composed ot young people In
their several churches. Our own ex
perience has been Just the opposite., Our
pastor was the first to suggest the
league movement In our church. Ho
urged us to visit a number of societies to
form a Central, and wasone of theprlme
factors In the organization ot a State
league. -I heard much at the conven
tion as to the proper way of conducting
a meeting, and under what conditions
success is sure to follow. The Itev.
Mr. Yont, the present editor of the
League Topics, conducted a meeting
Wednesday afternoon, with the assist
ance of several of the clergy, who took
parts previously assigned, to Illustrate
how the Topics should be used.
"It may be of Interest to know the
number of delegates present. As It was
only the second state convention held,
the attendance may be considered good.
The' figures are as follows: Pastors
present, 75; ladles present, 135; young
men present, 126; total, 336. This num
ber comprised twenty-one centrals and
144 Individual leagues.
."There Is another matter I might
mention, which Is one of the funda
mental principles ot the league, and
which every Lutheran will Indorse. The
Luther league recognizes no general
synod, no general council, no Missouri
synod, no united synod south, or north,
but all have an equal right on the
floor, and lastly, it stands upon the
unaltered Angsburg confession, as
found In our church hymnal. I think
we will yet see the day when the Luther
league will be largely Instrument
al in accomplishing what has been the
desire of every true Lutheran, to unite
the several bodies Into one grand whole
one church, one hymnal, one service."
Rev. E. L. Miller added a few words.
Rev. A. L. Rainey, of St. Mark's church,
West Side, also spoke. Before closing
it was decided to hold a joint meeting
cf all the league societies In the city a
week from next Tuesday evening; in
Trinity church. The "Topics" lesson
for the Sunday previous will be used,
