UMPIRE ASSAULTED
Chicago Players Rendered Desperate
by Defeat Maltreat Haskell,
SHDGERT AND EATOLL ASSAILANTS
Washington Easily Won the Third
Game of the Series From Chicago.
GENERAL SPORTING NEWS
The most cowardly assault and dis
graceful scene ever witnessed on a ball
field in Washington occurred yesterday at
American Park during the progress of the
game between the Senators and Chicago
club. Piteher Katoll and Shortstop Shugert
of the Chicago team were the assailants
and Umpire Haskell the sufferer, the latter
receiving a badly cut lip and almost a
broken leg. Fortunately there were suf
ficient police in attendance to hold the ex
cited spectators in check, or many more
would have been injured In the riot that
otherwise would have followed. Without
the shadow of a doubt, the assault was one
of the most unprovoked on record.
Haskell had been umpiring a faultless
game, and the trouble started on a pitched
ball. Katoll maintained that it should have
been the third strike, while the umpire
sent the batter to bases on balls, filling the
bases. Clingman, the next batter up, hit
to the left-field fence, clearing the bases.
The hit went down for a triple, and this
fortunate outcome for the Senators angered
Katoll still more. Walking back to the
rubber, the Chicago pitcher sent in a swift
ball which was wild, and getting by Catch
er Sugden hit the umpire. Under the rules
Clingman was entitled to come home, and
Haskell so ordered it.
The decision sent Katoll into a fury, and
he threw the ball at Haskell with tremen
dous force, the sphere striking him on the
leg and almost breaking it. ?Haskell then
limped toward Katoll and ordered him out
of the game. Immediately several of the
White Sox rushed toward the umpire, and.
while the latter was arguing with Catcher
Sugden. Shugert hit him a tremendous blow
in the mouth, knocking Haskell down. Like
a flash the spectators in the stands rushed
into the field, and in the excitement Shu
gert was handled pretty roughly. The po
lice arrested both Shugert and Katoll,
hustling the former out of the grounds on
a run. At the police station Shugert left
$20 collateral and Katoll $10.
Umpire Haskell was seen by The Evening
Star representative after the game,"and he
presented a pitiable sight. His face was
swollen and his leg by that time had in
creased to twice its normal size. All poor
Jack would say was:
"To think the* coward hit me for not
giving him the benefit of a doubt. The ball
was close in and looked like a ball to me,
and I so gave it I was talking to Sugden
at the time and had no chance to defend
myself."
From an unbiased point of view it looked
as though the Chicago players were sore
over the. impending defeat, and made the
luckless umpire suffer for their own de
fects. First place is rapidly drifting away
from Chicago, and the players have become
desperate over the possibility of losing
the championship.

CHICAGO EASILY DEFEATED.
Shut Ont l?y the Maiiterly Pitching of
Mercer and Splendid Support.
The third and closing game of the se
ries between Washington and Chicago at
American Park yesterday went to the
credit of the home team by the shut-out
score of 8 to 0. The Senators batted
strong at opportune timfes and in the field
put up a game which was marked sensa
tional all over. In fact, It was the field
ing alone which kept the Chicagos from
scoring, Clingman, Farrell and Grady pull
ing off three double plays, which were
heart-breakers for the visitors and kept
every white-legged player from crossing
the plate.
"Win" Mercer, at the present time, is
pitching for the reputation he used to
have, and which went skyward during the
season which is fast drawing to a close.
He had all his old-time speed and cun
ning, and he only allowed hits to be made
after two were out, when he took chances
on the men back of him making the play.
This accounts for the number of hits
credited to the Chicagos. After the batter
had reached first Mercer would begin work
in earnest once again and a put-out was
sure to follow.
Katoll also pitched a good game until
the fatal fourth, striking out four of the
Senators, but In that Inning two safe
drives and the base on balls, which caused
the trouble, sent him in the air. Cling
man's triple completed his downfall, both
as a pitcher and a gentleman. After the
excitement had settled down, Manager
Griffith went on the rubber and Burke
took Shugert's place at short. For two
Innings Griffith did well, but in the sev
enth seyeral good drives were made by
the Senators after two were out, and in
addition. McFarland butted into two er
rors, three runs resulting.
The Senators began business in the
scoring line on their first time up. Wal
dron doubled to left, went to third on
Farrell's out, and home while Shugert and
Isbell were retiring Dungan.
In the fourth Inning a quartet of runs
were pushed across the plate by the Wash
ingtons. Dungan singled to center, but
Clarke, In trying to sacrifice, forced the
former at second. Grady followed with
a fly to Jones, who made a beautiful
catch after a hard run. Foster singled to
left and Coughlin walked, filling the bases.
Clingman has been hitting poorly all sea
son, but KatoLl sent one over the plate
to Billy's liking and a hit good for three
bases followed, the three men on bases
scoring. Katoll's wild pitch followed and
Clingman crossed the plate with the fourth
run. Mercer closed the eventful inning
with a fly to Jones.
In the seventh the Senators hung up a
trio of runs after two were out. Cough
lin once more gained a free pass to first,
and on CUngman's pop fly to Isbell, both
men were out. Mercer then singled and
stole second. Waldron doubled, sending
"Winnie" home. Farrell followed with a
hot drive Into left field, which McFarland
let go between his legs. Waldron scoring
and the batter taking third. Dungan then
hit a high fly right into McFarland's hands
and as the latter muffed It, Farrell crossed
the plate with the third run.
All this time goose eggs were going up
for the Chicagos, and, to be consistent this
fare was continued to the end. thanks to
the clever pitching of Mercer and the
sensational work of the fielders behind
him Conrn?

COLISEUM'S gl'CCBSSFUL MEET.
Grand Circuit Rider* Content Before '
an Immense Crowd.
The meeting of the crack cyclers of the
grand circuit, at the Coliseum track last
night, was a great b?g success, the riding
being unusually close and exciting, fur
nishing excellent sports to the onlookers,
while the attendance went over the 4,000
mark.
The officials of the meet are to be con
gratulated upon th? promptness with which
all the different events were pulled off, and
also upon their accuracy of judgment in
placing the competitors as they crossed the
tape at the finish.
At an early hour the big crowd com
menced gathering outside the Coliseum en
trance, and from tie time the gates were
thrown open there vas a continuous stream
passing into the Inclosure, and the specta
tors continued to come until well after the
early events had been run. The inclosure
Inside the bowl track held a big crowd,
the spectators crowding around the rail
ten deep when thi contests were' on. Up
in the grand stand every seat was taken
and the crowd presented a pretty sight, as
fully one-half of it was made up of ladies
dressed in spotless white. No extraordi
nary time was mado, as it has come to be
the proper thing to loaf for the first two
laps and "jockey" for position, with the
result that spurts are only made on the
last round, and, of course, the records are
away down.
Then- was one little incident that jarred
the assemblage somewhat,. but as it was
quickly over, ;t left the spectators un
ruffled. During tlia race for the semi-finals
for the half-mile championship, in which
Lawson, McFarland and Fisher were con
testants, the sccond-named charged the
first with fouling him. McFarland was
very Indignant and let his temper get the
better of his judgment and struck Lawson
in the face. A policeman was handy and
the fracas was quickly squelched. Later on
the two riders adjusted their troubles in
the dressing room and the sport went mer
rilv on.
Frank Kramer was the bright particular
star of last evening's meet, and his work
demonstrated why he is leading in the
champlonshtlp for the season. He has
the speed and stamina, and in addition
uses excellent judgment in making his
spurts. Iver Lawson also handled himself
well and gave indications of finishing the
season in second place. He is also much
the same as Kramer on the wheel, and in
weight there is hardly five pounds differ
ence. Tom Cooper was a little out of kel
ter, and for the first time in his career
tbok part In i consolation race. In this
event Tom pulled himself together, and,
sprinting in his old-time form, won the
event hands down. ,
Ross Klosterman of Baltimore, manag
ing director of the Washington and Balti
more Coliseums, officiated as referee, and
the result was highly satisfactory, his de
cisions being impartial and correct.

HARNESS RACKS.
Onward Silver Broke Record In the
Race for $10,000 Stake.
When Eleata, Frank Jones' mare, the M.
and M. winner, trotted the second heat In
the race for the Massachusetts stake,
worth $10,000, at the grand circuit meeting
at ReadvtUe, Mass.. yesterday afternoon In
2.00, and lowered the stake record by one
half second, the grand stand throng arose
as a unit and applauded her. When, in
the next heat. Onward Silver strode over
the mile in 2.08, the crowd again went wild
with enthusiasm. The race went to Onward
Sliver, for he took the last three heats.
Thereby thousands of dollars changed
having taken two heats in
comparatively easy style, was the favorite
of the talent the betting standing *100 on
the mare to *25 on the field.
wil' tel1 for a long
RiHrtJx ?e "?iab'e heat in which Onward
Silver defeated Eleata, and at the same
time reduced the stake record held by Bo
ralma by 11-2 seconds. It was just "after
JefueUS' w kingr of tr?tters, was exhibit
ed that the word was given for the third
heat, which was really the decisive one.
t>Ieata led to the beginning of the home
j_tretch, and then Geers gave the word, and
Onward Silver closed up the gap. Twenty
nve yards from the wire Onward Silver's
head was up to Eleata's shoulders, and as
they went under the wire Geers' horse had
no mo? than the tip of his nose in front
of the black mare. In the next heat
iueata was coming home beautifully, with
Onward Silver close behind, when all of
a sudden the mare went into the air and
Onward Silver sped to the finish line fullv
four lengths ahead of Cornelia Belle. In
the fifth heat Geers seemed to play in
great luck. On the home path the mare
again broke, although not so badly, and the
heat and the race went to Onward Silver.
The unfinished 2.1!) class trot of Tuesday
went to Leola, the mare taking two more
heats.
Warm Time at Baltimore.
The game between the Baltimore and De
troit American League clubs at Baltimore
yesterday ended in the fourth inning, when
Umpire Connolly declared it forfeited, i) to
0 in favor of Detroit. The actual score was
7 to 4 in favor of the visitors. Connolly
had given several decisions particularly ex
asperating to the Baltimore crowd, for
which there seemed to be no justification.
At the beginning of Baltimore's turn at
the bat in the fourth inning another such
decision occurred and the home players
gathered around Connolly to argue "the
matter. Though they were talking peace
ably, it took Connolly less than a minute
to declare the forfeit. Elberfeld grabbed
Howell and a policeman in citizen's clothes
rushed upon the field and arrested Elber
feld. The crowd poured over the fences,
but no blows were struck, and even Con
nolly disappeared unnoticed In the general
excitement.
A Departmental StraRRle.
The ball tossers from the Treasury ond
Interior Departments endeavored to give an
exhibition of how to t>lay ball yesterday at
National League Park, but only half way
succeeded, after struggling through six
innings, in which neither interest nor ex
citement was displayed. The contest was
a see-saw affair until the sixth inning,
when the treasury boys, seeing darkness
fast approaching, made up their minds to
get into the game, and they really did, as
they scored six runs and won the game by
12 to ?. The treasury boys put up a better
game than their opponents, making seven
hits and slipping up on two chances, while
the Interior team made but five safe drives
and fell down on seven plays.
Hane Rail Xoteii.
Milwaukee opens up a series of three
games with Washington today. '
Wyatt Lee has had a good rest, and he
will probably go In against Husted or
Beldy.
Hats are tipped to Mercer, Clingman,
Farrell and Grady for exceptional work in
the field, while Waldron and Foster led
at the bat.
Umpire Haskell made many friends yes
terday through his nerve In sticking to the
game. He maintained that the patrons had
paid their money to see a ball game, and
they should not be disappointed on his ac
count. Haskell was almost exhausted
after the game.
It Is doubtful whether a better exhibi
tion of shortstop play has ever been given
In Washington than that put up by Billy
Clingman. He has always had the reputa
tion of being a great ground coverer, but
yesterday he simply outdid himself.
Every one of the Senators will have a
new hat this morning. One of Washing
ton's greatest "fans," who was sitting in
the grand stand yesterday, got excited in
the fourth Inning and offered hats to the
team if Chicago was defeated. The orders
were issued after the game.
It Is now up to President Johnson to
make good with the patrons of the Ameri
can League In this city. Shugert and Ka
toll belong to the Chicago club, but Mr.
Johnson, to be consistent, will have to
suspend both men for ten days at leas;,
and also Impose # fine. Both men should
be put out of the business, once for all.
If Manager Manning has done nothing
else this season he has at least unearthed
a great second baseman. Jack Farrell Is
a little raw yet on certain plays, but he is
coming fast, and before the season Is
ended his work will compare with the best
in the country. Jack's snap throw to first
is wonderful.
The Star's special from Philadelphia ves
terday afternoon was the talk of the town.
That Manager Manning had secured such
stars as Delehanty, Wolverton and Orth
was almost beyond belief, but although
the local man has to put in his denial there
is no doubt but that the men have al
ready been signed.
The Senators went Into sixth place yes
terday, and a continuation of yesterday's
work will land them in the first column
before the season's close. The pitching
corps looks unusually good and the oth^r
men have gingered up wonderfully.
Several of the Chicago papers which
were in direct communication with the
press box at American Park ordered elabo
rate specials, and one of them got out a
special ? extra over the fracas. President
Johnson evidently got the news early.
"Mugsy" McGraw will not play ball any
more this season. He wrenched his knee
badly about ten days ago, and It has be
come so bad that he will have to have It
encased In a plaster cast. The umpires
should feel happy, at least.
So far this season Orth has won 16 and
lost 7 games, a percentage of .G9?. He has
shut out St. Louis, New York, Boston and
Cincinnati. He has turned the trick on
the fetter twice and on Boston three times
in succession.
The Chicago American League team Is
anxious to get Billy Keeler and has made
him several offers for the coming season.
It is hardly likely that Keeler will accept
any of them. He is not made of that kind
of material that deserts a friend.?Pitts
burg Press. Keeler signed a contract with
Comlskey six weeks ago.
There was a new face on the Philadel
phia American League team yesterday,
Catcher Steelman, formerly of the Brook
lyns, signing with Connie Mack. When Mc
Guire was hurt day before yesterday Han
Ion at once wired to Steelman, who had
been sent from Brooklyn to Hartford early
in the season, to join the team. Steelman
reported In Philadelphia yesterday, but he
and Hanlon could not agree on salary, It
is said, and the catcher lost no time In
going to the rival league. He won the first
game for Mack's team yesterday with a hit
in the ninth Inning. Farrell, meanwhile, is
Hanlon's only available backstop. Mc
Guire is likely to be out of the game for
eight or ten days.
If the umpire makes a bad decision, don't
kick. Give him the laugh. It hurts worse
than a lengthy argument, and he cannot
get even. When Kelley was called out at
second base In the eighth, although Joe
avoided the ball by a great slide, the
Brooklyn captain didn't try to eat Dwyer's
head off, as Is the custom with other cap
tains. Instead the Brooklyn bunch laughed
at the hapless umpire, who looked sad.
The attitude of the Champions would have
been different, of course, had they been in
the rear when the decision was made.?
Brooklyn Eagle.
"Billy" Hamilton, the best base runner
and one of the most skilled fly-gatherers
and stickers the game ever produced, Is
now doing bench duty for the Seleeltes.
He has profited better this season than
many people seem to think, and up to the
time of his banishment had registered a
batting mark of .275. He leads Slagle and
Murphy, whom Selee is playing regularly in
preference to the New England boy who
started earning fame In the base ball world
with the old Kansas City "Blues," the ag
gregation which Jimmy Manning first
gathered together, and which included
Hermap Long among other stars who af
terward figured tn fast company.
The players of the National League who
would form the leading battim? and field
ing teams, according to the St. Louis Globe
Democrat, are: Batting?Catcher, Schriver,
St. Louis; pitcher. Nichols. Boston; first
base. Kelley, Brooklyn; second base, De
niont, Boston; third base, Davis, New
York; shortstop. TPagner, Pittsburg; left
