Nov. 83, Shamokln at Scranton. ' r .
It is quite probable that games with
Wyoming seminary will be played Oct.
IS ami .Nov. 16 and 23. The foot ball
committee Is also In correspondence
with the athletic officers at Lehigh. La
fayette and Carlisle, and the dates for
games with these colleges will un
doubtedly be filled.
The final selection of the permanent
players out of the score of players now
practicing almost dally will rest with
Captain Wulsh and the coaches, who
have not yet Intimated the make-up of
the eleven. The men will practice at
the Base diall park at 4 p. m. today.
One of the new candidates for a posi
tion Is OrMalley, of Mahanoy City.
The prospects for a strong foot ball
eleven In Carbondale are very bright
That city has followed Scranton's ex
ample, and In order to compete with
the heavy teams being organised
throughout the valley the foot ball en
thusiasts have engaged Patrick Kren
nan to captain and manage the team.
He knows his business, is a good play
er and Is said to be an ideal captain.
He will probably play behind the line
or on the end. The other members of
the team will be such well-known play
ers as Hansen, Loftus, Crane. Jadwin.
Coogan, Murrin, Lathrop, Singer, Col
lins and others. .
Another (.tuuit Match.

Yesterday's Kesolts.
Brooklyn a Baltimore
Cleveland H Pittsburg.,
Philadelphia 19 Washington ....
Chicago 4 Si. I.ouIh
Boston 8 New York
Louisville t Cincinnati
It Is a peculiar coincidence that ol
the six leaders Baltimore, at the head
of the list, was the only club to lose
yesterday, while of the six tiillenders
Louisville, at the end of the procession,
was the only club to win. Cleveland's
victory and Baltimore's defeat reduces
the hitter's lead to only ten points.
The race has throughout the season
been the most hotly contested of any on
record, and although only one week
more of pluylng remains tho name of
the winning club is unknown. Balti
more, of course, has the advantage ot
position, but that club has three more
games to play thun hus Cleveland.

was a bookkeeper and cashier also at
the Evening Leader office for the past
twelve years. His accounts with Edi
tor Bogert are said to be straight.
FKEEDMAN TALKS.
Going to ttalss Cain Generally la Bass
Ball Circles.
Boston, Sept. 20. Andrew -J. Freed
rrian, president o he New York Base
Hall club, arrive- In this city Thurs
day evening, and was seen later at the
Adams House. '
When asked If he intended making
any trade for Boston players, he said:
"Well, you have a few men here that I
would like; for Instance, I will trade
Rusle for Nichols, and there are other
trades that I don't care (o speak of just
how," ' iv v f
Mr. Freedmatt. has several men to
pick from, but admits that first-class
managers are very scarce: "I want a
man who will Insist on the players
keeping In good condition and put fines
on 1! rally when they break the rules,
I flnb Dad Clark $150 last Saturday
for his behavior , In the Philadelphia
game the day before. I think the gains
la being Injured y the players1 abuse
of umpires am) reckless behavior before
the spectators at the games."
"How would Nash do for a player and
manager?" " , ,
".Nash has, no doubt, some good ball
In him yet, but I am through wltb play
er-managers, and will have a man sim
ply for his bench work, after the style
of Hanlon. and, by the way. I think
H anion la in.a class by himself."
, JUr. Freed man was; not Impressed
With the work of the Eastern League
men. Catcher iMcAuley,' of Providence,
and Center Fielder Jones, of Spring
field, he thought good enough for a trial
In the big league, and the chances are
that he will purchase the release of
MeAuley.
DIAMOND DUST.
Shearon. the Buffalo outfielder, has been
bought by Cleveland.
Manager and Owner Jack Chapman
wants to sell the Toronto franchise.
Itert Inks, the Ixulv1lle south-paw
twlrier. may be signed by the Phillies.
Washington's right to play Shortstop
Dutnont, into of the Toronto. Is ques
tioned by owner Jaek Chapman, ami he
and Young and Powers are having a
three-cornered correspondence oil the sub
Jwt. McMahon has worn the skin off the In
dex linger of his right hand, and the sore
is giving him much trouble. It is so pain
ful that lie dislikes to Irritate It by prae
tiee work, and although he is always
ready to plteh a game, the fact that he
hus nut practiced much accounts, no
doubt, for his wlldness.
Tho Cleveland press Is denouncing the
methods of Frank Ue Huas Kohsoii in
coinpilling the Cleveland team to play ex
hibition games on off days instead of giv
ing the bovs a chance to rest. Had the
Spiders been treated differently, the critics
say, the team's chauevs for winning the
pennant would have been much brighter.
The Cleveland papers don't do a thing
to Baltimore. Here's Just a little shot
from a Cleveland exchange: "Uase ball
gumes In Bultlmore are attended by hun
dreds of ladies, some of them of the bent
families ill that city being represented at
.nearly every game. This may sound
uueer. In view of the fact that the Orioles
are the worst rowdies on the American
ball Held."
AMONG THE PUGS.
It looks brighter for the big fight.
George La Blanche, the Marine, has ar
rived In London and has challenged any
body there to fight him at 158 pounds.
He has his eye on the winner of the Cruig
Creeilon fight.
Jimmy Anthony, the Australian bantnm,
who has just arrived from California,
says that pending the culmination of ar
rangements to tight Pllmmer, he will
take on Sammy Kelly for a limited num
ber of rounds or to a finish.
Fltzsiminons and his pet lion hud quito
a time of It Sunday. Just after lunch the
cub got loose ami ran down Surf avenue,
creating great consternation among ped
estrians nu that thoroughfare. "Fits,"
with Charley White and the rest f his
retinue, took after the Hon, and, after
considerable diltlculty, managed to corral
him.
Young Orlffo. the wonderful Australian
boxer, is a typical bummer. He Is never
so happy as when halt "loaded," and en
tcrtuinlng a crowd of loufers In a bar
room with his selection of vulgar songs.
The writer had a peep at him In New
York some time ago. He has two or three
teeth out In front and Is a repulsive look
ing individual. Ex.
Jem Mace, writing In the current Issue
of The Mirror of Life, ot London, ancnt
the statement that he had suffered de
feat at the hands of Charley Mitchell, de
clares that the bout was understood to be
a friendly one, and that Mitchell, just as
they had shaken hands, "outraged the
first rule of fair play" by striking Maee a
violent blow on the jaw, which almost put
him out. He recovered quickly, however,
nnd they went at It hammer and tongs
for four rounds, when the police inter
fered and stopped the bout.

Theodore Very and an old-time show
man known as ",Dan" Rice were at
tacked Wednesday evening by robbers
as they were returning home from this
village and knocked down and robbed
of what little money they possessed,
together with their overcoats. Our de
tective bureau was immediately In
formed of the affair and after a few
hours of investigation arrested
George Molleneux, a resident of this
place, and after a preliminary hearing
conveyed the prisoner to the county
jail at Montrose. The evidence was so
strong regarding the guilt of the ac
cused that ho pleaded guilty and told
where the overcoat was secreted, but
would not divulge the name of his ac
complice. Mnllcneaux has a very yel
low reputation In these parts and lins
enjoyed a sojourn of late In the Mont
rose Jail. The two men, who are well
advanced In years, show evidence of
rather rough usage. Our detective force
are on the outlook for the other assail
ant. A. B. Conger, of Scranton, state lec
turer of the Patriotic Order Sons of
