ONE MORE LEAGUE
BIDS FOR PATRONAGE
International Team Lined Up To
day For the Opening
Battles
Special to The Telegraph
New York, April 21.—With the
opening of the*lnternational League
to-day all of the big leagues in this
country will be in operation. As usual,
the circuit of which Edward Grant
Barrow is the chief executive is the
last to get under way. Every club
has felt the hand of the Federal
League. As a result, not one, with the
possible exception of Baltimore, is as
strong as it was a year ago this time.
The Montreal club, which has al
ways been the weak sister of the
league, has suffered the most. Ro
chester is not far behind, for many
of the best players were unable to
withstand the temptation of the large
inducements offered them. Between
the two clubs the Federal League
managed to corral fifteen players,
right of which wore .Montreal uni
forms last year.
' The Newark Indians, champions of
the International League, lost two
men. Both were largely responsiblo
for the locals winning the pennant
last year. They are Harry Swacina,
first baseman and one of the leading
hitters in the league, and Cy Barger,
pitcher. The former joined the Balti
more Feds and Barger, Pittsburgh.
These players are Tri-State graduates.
The program for the opening of the
season is as follows:
Rochester at Newark.
Montreal at Jersey City.
Buffalo at Baltimore.
Toronto at Providence.

! erica's cup. expressed satisfaction with
the Shamrock IV. which they care

There is also the famous Tinker deal
iwith Brooklyn to come to final set
. tlement.
Brooklyn feels that inasmuch as
i Tinker did not report to the Brooklyn

Special to The Telegraph
London, April 21.—The bout be
tween Joe Borrell, of Philadelphia,
and "Bandsman" Blake, the English

fourth round Blake turned to go t.o
his corner and Borrell swung a hard
■ right to the head, flooring him. Blake's
seconds claimed a foul, but the referee
thought the blow was unintentional

had the better of the exchanges up
to that time.
