Senseless Kicking by Allentown
Forfeited Yesterday's Gamo
to Scranton.
Persistent, noisy kicking by the Al
lentown base ball players, combined
with the direct refusal of James Delc
hanty to leave the game when ordered
by Umplie Russell, forfeited yester
day's game to Scranton, the game be
ing called in Scranton's half of the
second Inning with the score 4-3 In
favor of the homo team.
Allentown began kicking when Rus
sell called Hub Knoll safe nt second
when McCluskey made a sharp at
tempt to catch the little left fielder
napping. The pitcher shot It to Kuhn,
who touched Knoll with It Just an In
stant too late. Kuhn gave a bellow
of rage, Jim Delehanty, with blood
In his eye, made at Russell, Brother
Joe Delehanty contributed a few
choice bits of English, and big News
doffed his mask and chest protector
and said his little say.
From then on Russell had his own
troubles. The Dclehantyltes, as Harry
Merrill calls them, growled on every
ball called on their pitcher, on every
base decision, on everything and any
thing. The climax came at the end
of their second Inning when Jim Dele
hanty called Russell something which
he certainly Is not, and was Imme
diately ordered by the young referee
to leave the game. Ho refused to do
so and was sustalnd In his objection
by the other members ot the team.
Russell then very properly gave Scran
ton the game. The spectators present
were given checks, which will be good
for today's game.
The game promised to be a long
drawn out one and attendant with
heavy hitting. Allentown opened by
making three runs. Jim Delehanty
opened the game with a fierce smash
to second base, which Pirate O'Brien
fumbled. Henry Hew out to MlUlgan,
and West banged one at Knox, which
Dick erred on.
Joe Delehanty hit one along the
third base line, which went Into left
field like a shot and Brother Jim
scored and Brother Joe was safe on
second. News contributed a long fly
to She er and West scored. Smoot
drew a base on balls and Kuhu hit a
beauty into left field, scoring Joseph.
Scranton went In and Knoll, the
first man up, walked. Mllltgan sin
pled to center, Shciller (lew out to Joe
Delehanty, and Knox placed a nice
one In left field, scoring Hub. Mc
Cluskey's wild pitch nnd Rnober Mc
Intyre's two-bagger to right scored
Knox and llllllgan, and Mclntyre
scored when News throw to second
to catch Doherty, who walked.
Both Kervln, who pitched for Scran
ton, and McCluskey, the Allentown
twlrler, were being lilt hard.
Legislators Outclassed.
Wllkes-Ilarrc, Juno 11. Ilarrlsburg made a
poor slum lug against Wilkcs-llarre today. The
visitors fielded loosely and their base running
was amateurish. Score:

It was stated that Inasmuch as tho
Niagara Falls Power company hitH de
veloped tho full capacity of povwr ftom
its present wheelplt that thero would
be somewhat of a lull In development
until the second wheelplt was operat
ing. This Is evidently not the case. De
velopment keeps light on and intends
to keep on,
The following table shows the amount
of money being spent In Niagara Falls.
The work Is either under wav or bids
are being called for in each Instance.
The aggregate Is enormous, even for
Niagara Falls at this tlmo of year:
Jl.813,001
Some of the work, llko the Items for
tho wheelplt and the additions to th
lower power house arc In the nature of
work rather than building, but tho
money Is being Bpont just the same.
Take It all together, this city Is en
larging considerably. Thero Is nearly
$2,000,000 In money now being laid out
In Niagara Falls.
