known as "Piper" Donovan, the well known
sprinter of this town, competed In tho sports at
tho Labor Day picnic, at MiUord, Mass., and ran
the 100 yard dash In clipping time. The watches
registered 013 soconds. If that is correct, then
Donovan la entitled to tbe world's record, as tbe
tlmo beats 1)4 5 seconds, held by II. llethune
and II. M, Johnson, This Is what Donovan and
his friends ore clalmlnp to-night. Sporting;
mon, however, are cuutious about accepting tbe
record until it has been verified, 1 he principal
timekeeper wns Donovan's brother. Tho other
men w ho held watches aro said not to bo export
In timing,
This alleged record can novor bo officially
verlflod, Inasmuch as there Is 110 organization
governing professional athloties. Even If there
wero, a performance on u plcnlo track with n
brother of tho winner holdlug a watch would bo
laughed at by compilers of record tablos. Don

the latest instance, tho timing wns altogether
unreliable. A few weeks ugu Walter M. Chris

not claim to bo unj thing better than a ten soc

Ha Alaa Declares That the Staff Ha Rsett

Club-He mature the Cincinnati, for foster
ing newdjtsm-Favera Clean Ball Plating,
Andrew Frcedman. President of tho New York
Baseball Club, arrived hero from a month's
vacation abroad yesterday. Ho siw tho two
games at the Polo Grounds In tho aftornoon and
was extremely pleased with tho Una showing
of his toim.
"The men have done their duty and I really
bcltovo thoy will flguro ln tho Temple Cup se
ries," Bald Mr. Proodman to The Bon roportcr.
" They havo been playing great ball and I am
moro than satisfied with them. Joyce's han
dling ot tho team has been entirely satisfactory,
and ho w HI continue at tho head of tho nine. No
chnngos aro contemplated Just now, for wo nro
winning, and that Is all an) body can ask.
You ennstato emphatlcully forme, though, we
would now bo In first placo If wo had received
any kind of a fair deal from the umpires In tho
West. Wa lost game after gamo on both trips
West through tho Incompetency of tho um
pires, who were afraid toglvous our right bo
cnuso thoy wero cither Incompetent or lacked
the courago of their convictions,
" When I blame tho umpires I do not mean nil
of them. Somo aro first-class officials who give
ontlro satisfaction, and who nro fair to nil
teams. Tlioro aro others, though, who are not
only Ignorant of tho rudiments of basobill, but
who havo no business on a ball field from a
moral point ot vlovv. The appointment of such
umpires Is and tins boon In every case duo to
tho President of tho National Loaguc, N, 11
Young. Ho has sclcctod men to umpire games on
hearsay recommendations, nnd they bavo gone
out upon tho diamond nnd blundered until they
precipitated riots, lie has dcllbcratcl) placed
these sumo lneompotcnts In the path of the New
York club away from home, so that wo bavo
sulTcred. It la my Idea that his methods bavo
been Intentlonnlly In opposition to tho New
York club's Interests, for at homo hero wo havo
had tho strident umplrus on tho stall, who gavo
us nono the best of their rulings.
" Incompetent umpires nre easily Intimidated,
and that has been tho caso In several cities we
have visited whero theso officials havo presided
over tho games. Hero In Now York ono never
hears about umpires being thrcuteuod with
bodily harm If tboy do not glvo ovcry doclslon
In fav or of the homo club. Tho crowds hero nre
very fair, and umpires, whether competent or
not, nre not afraid to give a fair show to a v lslt
mg team,"
" Why Is It that the League clubs do not Insist
upon their players obeying the rules agulnst
kicking I" tho reporter asked.
'.-ome of them do." wns tho reply. "Tho
New York club has never been an ndvocatu of
kicking orrowdvlsm ou or olf thu field, nnd Is
to-day In favorof clean, manly Bport. As Presi
dent ot the club I condemn such tactics as hnv 0
disgraced the ball field this vonr. Tho Now
Yorks have not played dirt) hall uud havo dono
no surlous kicking except ln Loulsv illo and Cin
cinnati, where they wero not only deliberately
robbed by Incompetent nnd dishonest umpires,
but were subjoetod to Infamous treatment by
patrons of tho game.
"'lho Boston. Philadelphia, nnd Chicago
clubs, like this club, nro, nnd always havo been,
opposed to dirt) ball. The teams represent! d
bj these clubs nro not composed of rowille-s, und
tho roeords show It. The Uultlinorcs umv klek
some, but the owner of tho club. Harry von der
Horst. is n true sportsman and wants to win by
fair means. I am sure that thco clubs I men
tion, therefore, ilo not countenance kicking on
the field and will Join any movemcut to sup
press It.
"Kicking has been going on for such a length
of time In baseball thut it hua come to bo regard
ed as part of tbe game. Tho pin) on nro human,
nnd vshon they know that the) nro being du-
rived of their rights they aro bound to rrbel.
ut ln a gamellko them- two here to day kicking
is an Impossibility. O'Duy railing halls In hind
the but and Carpenter judging tho bano de
cisions are In tbo bent positions to seo nil tho
plays. Tbcy are both competent, and their
rulings are oaeod upon an honest desire to Ihi
fair. Thclrwork beautifully illustnttc whr' I
have advocated for three yoors, tbo double
umpire system. It may be n trifle more expen
sive than tho old regime, but what difference
does that make when the reputation of thn gime
Is at stake t Two umpires, any way you look at
It. are better than one. They can see all tho
flays, and aro obis to back each other up.
have done some umpiring myself, and I
know- how hard it is to keep account of bulls
and strikes nnd at the samo tlmo wnteh tho de
cisions on the bases. Ihe- motion tn adopt tho
double umplro system will dimo up nt the noxt
meeting of th- League and It will receive strong
Indorsement."
" Do you attribute, then, nil the troubloon tho
field this year to Incompetent umpires I" was
asked.
"Not all of It. Serious trouble, which has be
come infectious, has beer, bred by thcCinclnnntl
Club through its ofiltials, players, hangers ou,
and the public of that city. Thn me thuds in
voguotn Cincinnati in order to win enmes lire
a disgrace to tho League and to John 1 llrush,
who controls tho club If some of the things
that havo been dono there could lio publlshi d
they would bring the blush of shame to the
cheeks of everj American sportsman lho Now
Yorks. HaltimoreH, Clev elands, Iyoulsv lilts,
Phlludelphl is, nnd other teams have been sub
jected to treatment that Is almost Inert ditili-
"What kind of people run thoClm Inn itl Club
when they permit Kwing, the manager, and his
Elaj era to put a drug Into lho water to bodrunU
y thoNew York plnvers, m was the ease during
our last trip thero I They may denj the ehure-.
but It Is truo Jubt the bnme, us Joyco and all of
tbo New York plaera ian attest, which shown
how eportamnnilke tho Cincinnati Club Is nnd
how much they try to promoto tbe best Interests
of baseball.
"Tho treatment accorded not only the Now
Yorks but alsootbcr Lcaguo tenms In Cini In
natl nas caused no end of trouble. Wboncver
tho New Yorks arrived in town thoy found
abusive paragraphs in thn newspapers which
wero intended to turn popular opinion against
thm. When tbey got to tbo grounds the) wero
hooted nt and grossly lnsulti-d by nlleged patrons
of the sport, who used language in the hearingof
women that wan unfit to print. During the gnmo
thu umplro was conslanti) reminded b) tho
crowd and by supposodl) respectable porsoiiH in
the grand stand thut unless ho robbcil tbo New
York ho would bo slugged, Uood plays b) tho
New Yorks were hlssi d nnd tho pla vers were
cnlled the vilest of numos whenuver tno) cumo
within O'irshot of the speetitors
"Atthohotols even our torn was Insulted
and porsons looking for fight wero continually
haugingubout. Asa r suit of nil these unfair
tactics, which arc ulwns prevalent, thu Cluuln
uatls managed to win many guimsnt homo,
most of them b) une run. 'they were nlso cn
ab'oitust.i) up at tho lop of tho League raeo
until very retentl).
"'lopcrsoiiH who knew nothing of the dnlngs
at Cincinnati, the slump of tho Iteds when
ever they played uwuy from their own
grounds was In tho nature of a sur
prise. Dut tho reason 1b very plain.
Without unfair umpires who wero afraid of
their lives, without partisan crowds, and with
a square deal on strange grounds, thoy have
been unnblo to win, and nre now fourth, Kwlug,
Bancroft, und others nt tho head of tho Cincin
nati Club admitted, 1 am told, last week, that
during the sorles at the Polo Grounds thoy never
received bettor or more fair treatment from tho
umpires nnd the public ln any Leaguu city, aud
yet they could win only ono game out of five.
"It has been said that they plavod clean ball
here, mid that they did not kick or othcrvvlBO
mlsbebuve. Very true. Hut there wns a reason
for it. Their dirty tactics at home had been
made known, and they wero afraid of thu news-
Supers nnd tho public hero. Tboy know that
lrt) ball would not be tolerated, so they played
clean ball nnd were beaten on their merits.
" With theso things lu vlon, therefore, I do
not bollovo anybody will full to seo that tho
Cincinnati Club officials have fostered rowdy
ism In Its worst form. Dy a single word from
llrmh, hwlng, Ilancroft, or anybody in author
ity, these evils could be stopped. Ilul they nro
allowed to go on Just thu same, and what Is tho
result I Visiting tuums huvo to light for their
rights, and lu that way tho plu)ers get Into
tho habit of reBortlng to similar motbods to win
when they gut on tholrown grounds, lho Now
York Club docs not permit tbo use of fool Ian
guagobv Its patrons mid will treat courteously
ever visiting team whether u mumDcrofthu
big League or a minor league, so long as tho
player behave themselvos Uko gentlemen.
" I am In favor of fair play at all stages of the
game nnd um an advocate of cloan baseball. I
will tuke tbe first step If norossary to put it stop
to kicking anil lighting on thu Hold, and I w 111 also
ecu to It that President Young handles lho um
pires properly in tho future. Hentlment cuta no
figure with me. I do not care bow-long Mr.
Young has boon ln the basebull business or how
honorable ho may bo. If ho cannot provide a
competent umpire staff and cannot give fair
treatment Io every League club, then the Job
must be taken by somebody else. Wo must
have honest ball, honestly umpired, and patron
lied by fulr, square sportsmen, ,, ,
" Visiting teams to lho Polo Grounds will be
treated fairly, and I will tolerate nothing that
Is disorderly, either on tbo part of thu specta
tor or rluyere. If thootherclubsln tho Leugtio
will follow this example I feel suro mat the
game will be cleansed Of all existing evils borne
of the Cincinnati player c-une hero to sco to
day' games, and got ltisldo the grounds
through the gate for guests before I know
It, I rofusud to oxtend this courtesy to
the other member of the team becauso I con
alder them a lot of loafers. Their only buslnc-s
ln the Polo Grounds i to plav ball. If they wish
to see a game, they must pay Uko an) body olso.
Anson and hi Chlcogos aro here, though. In the
frand stand, and they, together with all other
earns of players who con behave themselves,
aro always w elcoiuo."

Tho second day of th Grand Olrenlt meeting
of the New York Drlrlna; Club at Fleetwood
Park wa attended by perfect weathtr, and th
good programme would havo fumbibed a
thoroughly enjoyablo day' port to a fairly
large number of spectator but for an evident
blunder on the part of tha Judge. The trouble
aroso out of tho decision in tho fourth hoat of
tho 2:21 trot. While Qoortrena and QuartenUff
wero engaged In a hot struggle down the stretch
Oeeracameup on tho outside with Emily, and
tho threo finished ln a bunch. To every one out
lde of tho judges' stand there apDoarod no
doubt of Qeorgena having won the heat by a
short head. Therefore when tho Judge an
nounced tbolr doclslon, giving the hoat to Emily,
thero wa an almost unanimous expression of
disapproval. Emily had been made favorite,
the pool being 850 on her to 9 10 for the flold.
Had aho not been unsteady (he would havo beon
an easy winner, but bad breaks In the first and
third heats allowed Ocorgcna to score twioe
before the fatal fourth boat. In tbo Ilfth beat
Emily wa on her good bohavlor ond easily out
footed tho party.
In tho three-year-old trot Oeorgo Kotchanv
grand youug son of tho " monarch of the home
stretch " was a pronouncod favorite over th
1 field nt $50 to $20, nnd his raco Bhowod that It
. would have taken a high-class colt, or even an
aged horse for that matter, tu have carrloa htm
to his limit. American Hello was clo:o up ln
1 the first heat In 2:14, but tho chostnut colt was
Imply loafing, and easily spread-eagled the
, flold In the next two heat.
In tho pai log race Forrest llcrr brought as good
aprlconsSlOO. against sJl'Jo fortho field In the
1 oarly bolting, but he got tho "banner" ln the
first shufllo. With Herr out of tbo way Quad
riga carried the wlsu mone), and with speed to
snare piloted the field homo In straight order.
