UGLY SQUABBLE IN MANHATTAN Chicago Team Gets Yesterday's Game from Giants Thru a Surfeit. Journal Special Service. New York, Aug. 8The appellation of quit ters was added to the New Yoik giants' lepu tatlon as rowdies yesterday when they had Um pire Johnstone disbaned from the grounds. No game was plajed with the Chicago cubs, and at 4 o'clock, when the contest was scheduled to be gin, Johnstone and his fellow umpire, Emslie, again demanded admittance, but it was refused, whereupon they jointly declared the game for feited to Chicago by a scoie of 9 to 0. The high handed action of the New York club in interfering with the official duties of Um pire Johnstone dealt the national game here a blow fiom which it never will recover until McGraw is displaced as manager of the local club. McGraw, and in fact the officials of the New York club, ridiculously declared that they were not responsible for Johnstone's disbar ment. When the arbitrator arrived at the grounds at the usual hour he was Intercepted at the gate by Inspector of Police Sweeney, who in formed him that his (Johnstone's) piesence inside the grounds would cause a riot. Sweeney added that the fans might do him bodily harm if he attempted to officiate following the ill feeling that resulted fiom Johnstone's decisions in Monday's game. Johnstone said he would take all chances with the crowd, and that if the police did their duty he would be perfectly safe. Emslie de clined to discharge his duties on the field unless Johnstone was admitted, and upon being told by Sweeney that he could not alter his original decision, the forfeit edict was issued. There was a long confeience between McGraw and Chance, during which there were frequent cries of "Play ball" from the impatient onlookers. Chance Was Firm. Chance insisted upon having an official um pire, and would not consent to having one of his players act in that capacity The first indication of trouble Inside came when Devlin, who hab been suspended, went to third base. For several minutes thereafter the New York plajers skylarked on the diamond. Ames then went into the box and Bresnahan walked behind the plate Not a Chicago man would walk to the plate. At ten minutes past 4 o'clock the New York club arbitrarily appointed Sammy Strang as umpiie, and with three new balls in his hand he walked into the center of the diamond and ordered play No Chicago man would come. Strang Calls Game. In the meantime Umpire Pro tem Sam Strang in a melodramatic manner declared the game forfeited to New York. President Murphy of the Chicago club rushed from one of the boxes and held a hurried conference with Manager Chance. In a minute both bowed their heads as if they had agieed to a plan of action. The Chicago club, led by Manager Chance, dashed across the field and went to the clubhouse where they dressed. Twelve thousand people then swarmed over the field, yelling maledictions on the head of McGraw and at the same time clamoring for their money. Secretary Knowles had a laige force of clerks ready to see that everybody was reimbursed. Pulliam Is Brave. Harry C. Pulliam of the National league last night gave out a Statement regarding the for feited game at the polo grounds. "Saratoga, N. Aug. 7.Press reports here say that Johnstone, a National league umpire, was refused admission today by the New York club, and that thereupon the Chicago club right fully and In strict accordance with the National league constitution declined to play The game was legally forfeited" to the Chicago club, and I stand by the "aettWi o$'r Chicago Is Sore. Chicago, Aug. 8.-Chicago fans were aston ished at the outcome generally of the New York-Chicago game yesterday. Such old veter ans as Captain Anson and others shrugged their shoulders, one man saving: "That is Brush, all right." "Brush will go for on injunction and threaten to take his team out of the National league. I don't believe the American league wants any McGraws in it any more "Sentiment hero upholds Captain Chance in every particular. There is no reason in the world why he should back McGraw in his fight on an umpire who gave a decision favoring Chi cago, and a decision apparently right Other quarrels with umpires were discussed in which McGraw and Brush have figured. "It is questioned whethei Brush would not lose his franchise and the Nationals be allowed to play a new club there if grounds could be secured. Political influence would prevent this, however, and conservative members look for a compromise. It resembles the act of an angered boy who has lost his temper and is in a frame of mind to do anything," was one judgment that was passed.
