Paul. Prultt pitched his usual steady game
end had the home team guessing all thru, the
Only score coming after a costly error by Geier

ftrhile Shannon succeeded in making three. Oad
wallader was credited with the othera wild
ifthrow to Freeman.

arhen Sugden, who had reached first on a field
er's choice, goi to second on a bad throw by
Shannon and scored on a hit by Frisk. In the
Second inning they scored again, and la the
third four runs were made as a result of a
aeries of errors. In the fourth one more
wals |nad and then millers held them down unti
the eighth when more errors and a few hits
^resulted In two runs, making a total of nine.

Monday Evening,
OWENS AFFAIR
TO BE SIFTED
American Association Leaders to
Gather at a Chicago Hotel
Tomorrow.
By CLoughlln.
Minneapolis baseball magnates were notified
yesterday afternoon of a meeting to be held In
Chicago! at the Grand Pacific hotel tomorrow
morning to investigate the Owens charges. L. A.
Lydlard, secretary of the Minneapolis club, will
probably attend the meeting- -with Attorney
M. U. Boutelle and Vice President Westlake.
Owens has not been suspended by President
O'Brien, but has himself asked for an Investi
gation. He declares that he will be able to
prove his innocence, and that be will have little
trouble in demonstrating that he has dons noth
ing out of the way.
For the good of baseball It la to be hoped
that Owens can clear himself convincingly. The
three affidavits of the gamblers, who declare
they were "in" with him on gambling deals,
sound convincing and are given with a wealth
of detail. If Owens Is innooent he can doubt
less produce affidavits jnst as oonvinclngr. If
Owens has been traduced by these gamblers
and can show that the Minneapolis baseball
club and himself have been made the victims
of false'statements, Minneapolis should be made
too hot to hold them.
President O'Brien and' the Havenor mouth
pieces or Milwaukee, have gone far afield in* this
case and have attributed the whole affair to
President M. J. Kelley ot the local club. In
fact Kelley had nothing to do with the Owens
matter. He has been called a "trouble-maker*'
for past rows when he was merely fighting back
at a series of attacks upon himself.
The charge that the Minneapolis dnb has
sought trouble In preferring these charges, the
Owens case, Is not based upon the facts. The
rumors of gambling on the Columbus series were
current here, and reached the ears of' Lydlard.
Such stories, if true or not, are deeply In
jurious to the standing of a sport, and Lydlard
set about to run them down, not with the idea
of "getting Owens," as is held out, but
tofeated
clear up the stories. When the three affidavit
makers were uncovered and they told their
stories, Lydlard had them tell them In affidavit
form and asked for an Investigation. His action
had nothing to do with the factional fight in
the league. Even If Owens should be found
guilty It would not change the political com
plexion of the association In the slightest de
gree.
Tomorrow's meeting should be a thoro one.
The directors of the league should not go half
way in anything, but should sift the affair clear
to the bottom. If Owens Is guilty he should
be so declared and barred forever .from the ball
field. If he is innocent his Innocence should be
established in a manner that will leave no room
for doubt. The Minneapolis magnates and the
Minneapolis followers of baseball are fair, and
would not stoop to anything like a deliberate
conspiracy to blast a man's reputation. If
Owens Is innocent then he, as well as the local
club, has been the victim of a tissue of lies
made for no apparent purpose save to vent a
private spite.
Milwaukee papers have hinted that Minne
apolis was attempting to Involve President
O Brien In the affair. This is untrue so far as
the writer knows. O'Brien did not treat the"
Minneapolis club fairly his handlingg of the
alleged assaulot matter, but no one in Minne
apolis believes or entertains the thought that

Crew of Overturned Shell Declare
Captains Left Them to
Drown.
New York, July 80.Coxswain Herman A.
Fisher of the Ariel Rowing dub, Bath Beach,
who, with eight others, nearly wet bis life Sat
urday evening by the capsizing of their racing

the federal authorities against three captains
of Coney Island and. Bocksway Beach steamers,
who he and his companions declare, refused to go
to their assistance.
After clinging to the sides of the broken shell
for nearly two hours the men were finally
picked up in a weakened condition by the fish
ing smack Mary L. Durhand. and taken their
boathouse on Gtrsveaaad bay. As a-token or their
gratitude Captain Fisher and bis clubmates pre
sented the captain of the smack with a purse
containing more than 850.
"I have never seen such inhuman treatment
as was shown by the different vessels that
passed us within hailing distance," said Cox
swain Fisher to a reporter. "If the captains
had been doing their duty they could not have
missed us, as they had a view of the surrounding
waters from an elevation of about thirty-five
feet.
"I am positive that between thirty and forty
vessels passed near enough to see our plight.
but none offered us any assistance. The cap
tain of the fishing smack was only a few feet
from the surface, yet he Informed us that in the
dim twilight of the evening be knew that some
thing was wrong when he was nearly three
quarters of a mile distant."
