It was not done easily. The Washington players put up a beautiful game, but the birds out classed them. An evidence of the sharp play of the Senators was shown by the fact that eight of the Baltimore player* were left on bases. Both pitchers were in good form, but Foreman proved to be the better man. Only once did he let a batter walk to first base and he struck out three men. Patten gave three free passes to first, two on balls and one by stepping out of the box In mak ing an Illegal delivery. There was no cause for "kicking" at any stage of the game. The Orioles started the run getting In the first inning, the Senators failing to get a man as far as first base. Dunn led off with a two-base hit, but was caught at third on Donlin's grounder to Coughlin. Donlin stole, reached third base on Clarke's wild throw and scored on Willlama' single after Seymour had drawn a pass. In the third Inning the Senators tied the score on three singles and a double steal. With Cllngman on third base and Waldron on first, the Orioles allowed Cllngman to run home while Waldron kept them busy chasing him between first and second bases. It seems that the Orioles will never learn how to prevent their oppo nents from working this ancient trick. Once upon a time they used to tempt men to try this trick on them so that they could make a sure out on the fellow who was trying to steal home. In the sixth inning the Baltimores scored again. Kelster went out on a pop fly. Brodle eent a hot one, of which Coughlin made a hot catch. Here occurred Patten's illegal delivery, which gave Hart first base. Bresnahan lined out a three-bagger, which scored him. Foreman filed out to center. The game was clinched for Baltimore In the eighth inning with four runs. Fore man struck out Coughlin and Clingman and Patten was retired on a foul fly to Dunn. Then for Baltimore Williams led off with a two-base hit. Kelster followed with a three-bagger, scoring Williams. Brodle went out. Patten to Grady. Hart singled and the ball was thrown to Clarke, who returned It to third base to catch Kelster. Coughlin dropped It and Kelster scored. Bresnahan filed out to Farrell and Fore man hit for two bases, scoring Hart. Dunn hit to left field and Foreman scored. The Senators made their second run of the game in the ninth Inning. After Wal dron filed out to Donlin Farrell singled to center and scored on Dungan's two-bagger to right field. Grady was out, short to first. Clarke worked a pass and was forced out by Foster, who hit to second base. Score: Baltimore. R.H.O.A.H.

The Connecticut state championship lawn tennis tournament was continued at Nor folk, Conn., yesterday, despite the un favorable weather. A few showers drove the players under cover occasionally, but the play was kept up all day and many matches were finished. When sunset was reached only four of the orlchnal twenty two players were left in the hunt for Champion Lewis Perry's scalp. In one-half are H. L. Galpln of Yale and E. Q. Jackson of Middletown, while in the others are J. P. Paret of New York and W. B. Blagden of Harvard. The seml-flnal matches are scheduled for today, so that the championship match can be finished to morrow. The feature of yesterday's play was the second round match in singles between Paret and Leroy, who holds the Columbia interscholastic championship. Paret was expected to win eastly, but the Cutler boy put up a surprisingly strong game and held Jhe lead all through the first set. JParet, however, steadied <hAh? A* little and finally pulled out the set lar VJ. In the second set the veteran crowded?on a little more steam and had mattfrs much his own way. The day's scores foU_Qw: _ Championship singles?First round?H. Famam beat T. Hooker, ft-1, 6-4; W. B. Blagden beat K. BtiMceley. 6-2, 6-2. Second round?H. I* Galpln beat H. C. Martin, 0-4, 6-1: B.

TAYLOR NOT SUSPENDED. He and Kramer Have Been Excused From Handicap*. It was reported yesterday morning that "Major" Taylor had been suspended In definitely by "Dick" Robe at Albany on Tuesday night because he failed to start In the one-mile handicap race. The report was erroneous, says the New York "Sun. Robe Is the official referee of the Albany district of the N. C. A., and as such was acting within his power when he suspended Tay lor, but he was laboring under a misappre hension, and his edict Is void. Taylor will ride tonight at Syracuse and again Satur day in championship events. The facts In the case are that both Taylor and Kramer have been excused by the board of control of the N. C. A. from riding in any but the championship events "until further notice.** This action was taken because Taylor has not been at his best since he returned from abroad, while Kramer has not been up to form since his fall at New Haven a few weeks ago. Taylor suffered from the change in drinking water and then had an accident In training at Worcester that made two holes In his back. Kramer has had one side and a shoulder in weak crn dition since his fall In New Haven . It Is not commonly known that the men who sign for the circuit championships are expected also to enter for the handicap event ahlch the N. C. A. rules require shall be run, as well as the 2.10-class race, at every circuit meetfng, but It Is so and the ofilcial handl capper In each section puts down the names of the circuit chasers and uses them in their places to build his "ladder" from scratch to limit. Word was sent out from the N. C. A headquarters that Taylor and Kramer had been excused, but It appears that Robe did not get It In timo and so ' acted upon the presumption of his authority on Tuesday night. LAWSON'S BIG PROMISE}. Said to Have Offered His Crew $100, OOO to Defeat Columbia. Something approaching the sensational will be a feature of the races between the Independence and the Columbia today and Saturday If a tale circulated among yachts men at Newport yesterday is true. The story is that Mr. Thomas W. Law son promised his crew $106,000 If the Inde pendence defeated the Constitution and the Columbia. The Constitution being out of the races. It is declared that the offer holds for the defeat of the Columbia alone lr? the present series. This extraordinary amount of race money would give each member of the crew about $2,000, something worth working for. Information that such an offer has been made has reached the crews of the Consti tution and the Columbia, as well as of other yachts, and it has had a demoralizing effect, the wonder being why other owners cannot be Just as generous as the man from Boston. This new situation has brought out tho fact that for more than a year It has been difficult for yacht shippers to keep their crews together. Th&^e Is now being con sidered by yacht owners the advisability of forming an association; to protect them selves. rt has been thougnt possible to bar the troublesome sailor from ail good boats.

The twenty-mile match race between "Bobby" Walthour, the southern cham pion, and Jimmy Moran of Boston, which was scheduled to take place tomorrow night at the Coliseum, has been declared off. Moran, It is said, refused to ride either In this city or Baltimore. Tom Linton of WaleB was scheduled to ride against Walthour. but he left for Wales last month, and Moran. being the rider nearest this city, was telegraphed for. An effort was mad61 to secure Archie McEachern. Burns pierce or Will Stln son, but all of thesg riders being booked It was Impossible to fcet tliem to ride here. A new rider, by the name of Monroe, was offered, and Manager Will Bryan of the I Coliseum would only boojt1. him on one con dition, that Walthouc' would concede him one mile In twenty.. "Monroe's manager declined the proposition. V>d insisted on a race with two pacemakers and the post ing of a guarantees with expenses. It was finally decided not to give the race under these conditions. If It Is possible to secure* two good riders for a match race of yie same distance for tomorrow night announcement will be made later; otherwise yfrs'meet will bo de clared off.

Nelson Wins From Stlnaon. Nelson defeated Stlnson In a twenty-five mile motor-paced race at the Coliseum. Providence, R. I., last night. Early In the race the rear tire of Stinson's motor burst, putting him back two laps, which was the distance by which he lost the race. The time was 39.34 3-5.

Never in our history have we experienced such business as yesterday's. Weil might we be ecstatic and 5ay that aii past records are broken; that the crowds are unprecedented; that the enthusiasm was extraordinary. But we must not forget conservatism and indulge in verbosity. In plain, simple language let us state that the public accepts our statements as true and acts accordingly. Hundreds who shared in the Francis offerings were here yesterday. They came to com pare, they said; to see how much greater and better were these bargains than those in the Francis sale. A few moments told the tale. The size and variety?greatness of the stock, the choiceness of styles, the superiority of every gar ment?all those things showed for themselves immediately. And resistance became almost an impossibility. Of course it is the talk of the town, because it is the opportun ity of the season. A Parker=Bridget $25.00 Sunt for - A Parker=Bridget $20.00 Suit for ~ A Parker= Bridget $15.00 So it for - $12.50 $10.00 $7.50 And so on. Just think of it. And every garment Just right in style, color and weight for the fall season. Not anybody else's stock, bear in mind; not the odds and ends of a season's selling, remember?but our entire stock of sack suits without exception. flow can we afford it, we are asked. To sell quickly or slowly, that is the question. To sell in the regular way at full-value figures Is all right when we want it that way. But to sell quickly, to turn clothes into money surely, the half-price force is used. And so this sale. Of course we lose money; but when we desire to accomplish a thing we stop not to measure cost. We will lose a few thousand dollars on this sale?but what of It? Compared with the volume of business accomplished during the season on a profitable basis?it is a small matter. So don't stop at our losses, but rather think of your gain. Will you ever need clothing? Of course. Then share. i? FfeF, Head=to=ffoot Outfitters, Pa. Ave. amid 9th St. fled with the result and challenged Nelson to repeat the conditions at the Coliseum two weeks from tonight for $500 a side and the offer was accepted. GRAND CIRCUIT TROTTING. Three Lower Marlts Made by Horses at Columbus Yesterday. Perfect weather and the largest crowd of the week greeted the Grand Circuit per formers at the Driving Park, Columbus, Ohio, yesterday afternoon. Tuesday night's rain put the track in excellent condition, and all three heat winners In the 2.06 pac ing broke their records, as did Onward Silver, winner of the 2.12 trotting. The racing was by far the best of the meeting, and thousands of dollars went Into the pool box. The first race, the 2.00 pacing, went to Stacker Taylor, who gave one of the gam est exhibitions ever seen at the track. George was a strong favorite over the other seven starters, selling at 50 to 80 for the field, wrth Carmine as second choice. Stacker Taylor won the first heat in 2.08%, lowering his record a second and a half. George took the next two heats, each in 2.06%. reducing his mark from 2.06. Carmine, who finished outside the money at both Detroit and Cleveland, paced the fourth heat In 2.0714. Stacker Taylor won the fifth in fast time and the sixth from George and Carmine, non-winners of heats having been sent to the stable. George drove hard for the last heat, but could not reach the son of Oapt. Cook. Onward Sliver was a 50 to 80 favorite for the 2.12 trotting. In which there were only four starters. He broke badly In each of tho first two heats, which were won by Cornelia Belle. George finally got the fa vorite settled, and he won the third, fourth and fifth heats, reduolng his record to 2.10% in the final mile. Dr. Book, the favorite in the 2.14 trotting, took the first two heats, with Wauban half a length behind. He looked like a winner in the third, but Grade Onward drove him to a break forty yards from the wire and won the heat. Wauban led all the way in the fourth mile, and the race was post poned until today. The champion trotter, Cresceus, arrived at the track from Cleveland yesterday. He was paraded in front of the stand late In the afternoon and was given a tremendous ovation. He will start against his record of 2.02% tomorrow. Mr. Marks, manager of The Abbot, will decide definitely today whether or not his horse shall meet Cres ceus at Brighton Beach week after next. Ten Eyck Retires Unbeaten. Edward H. Ten Eyck, world's champion amateur" sculler, announced yesterday at Worcester that he had quit rowing for ever. He retires a champion who has never been beaten In a race. Base Ball Notes. Senators and Orioles play a double-header In Baltimore today. Ex-Senator Frank Foreman was too much for the Washington boys again yes terday. Waldron was the only man to get two hits. Jack Farrell Is evidently settling down Into a good second baseman, his work at Baltimore yesterday being favorably com mented on by the Oysterville critics. Another ex-Senator. Roger Bresnahan. was also some pumpkins in yesterday's fame. His triple came at a very oppor tune time. Washington is now in sixth placo, Connie Mack's Athletics, by winning from Boston yesterday, going Into the fifth position.
