These were received early in the day, when. In attempting to compel a mas loon keeper to close him place, the captain was met upon by a crowd and beaten. Joseph W. Carroll, who burst him way Jnto the maloon to rescue the captain. will lose an eye as a result of his injuries. The captain said tonight: "It was after snidnight whsen I passd through Bleecker mtreet. I went Into the saloon and hotel of Louis Terelli and ordered a drink. When 'Terelli served it.

AGAIN A.SENATOR PERnM BATrSMAZ AGRIMS TO JZTUBN ALL ADVANCE XONET. atakers Defeated Local GoMers-Pal Ham Acts Against Rowft ma Big Shooting Xatch. The welcome news was given out late 3tkirday night that Edward J. Dolehanty, the Idol of the base . bal lfais 1i4 reached an agreement with Manager Loftus f the Washington club. wherby the heavy batter would return the advance money he had received from the New York National League club and this season would again line up with the Senators. The big batter has been In Washington for the past two weeks waiting for Manager Loftus to make advances, but as the time for playing drew mear "Del" became uneasy, and Saturday lecided to settle the matter once for all. As there was no game on, Manager Loftus was sitting In the smoking room of the Ox ford when Delehanty walked up to him and said: "Well, Tom, we might as well get down to business. % I want to know whether I am going to play ball this season or not." "You can get down to business just as soon as It suits you. Del," replied the ge nial manager. "The situation is up to youL You know that I, cannot do anything to help you out of your predicament." "Well I've about come to the conclusion that Washington Is good enough for me and my friends all tell me that I am up against It. so that I have concluded to give McGraw back his advance money." When Delehanty finished his sentence Manager Loftus immediately brightened uip, as he saw sunshine ahead and an easy way out of the tangle. The two then put their heads together. and In about ten min mtes all the little kinks were straightened mut, and "Del" was once more a Senator In good standing. While the conference was going on the nembers of the team stopping at the Ox ford got wind of what was transpiring. Lnd when 'Del" came out with a broad imile on his face and told the boys every .hing had been straightened out satisfac orily he was heartily congratulated. The Ag fellow is a great favorite among the )all playing fraternity, and the fact that le will line up with the players again this leason will be received with pleasure all wer the country. The big wad ,of money, something like ;4.000. was shipped Saturday night to New rork by Delehanty, and it is expected that President Pulliam of the National League will be notified of its receipt today, and the tact made public at once. Although Delehanty is not yet in first .lass condition to play ball,- he weighs iomething like eight pounds less than he lid this time last year. He *ill continue to train hard until the seison opens, and it a more than likely that he will play Lgainst the Bostons tomorrow afternoon. [ate Saturday night Delehanty left for Philadelphia, and returned this morning with his wife and little girl. With the signing of Delehanty the en tire Washington aggregation Is under Lover, and the team can now be said to be ready for business. as Catcher William Clarke reported to Manager Loftu,s this morning. There is no question that the Benatorial outAt this season is the most expensive team that has ever represented Washington In a major or minor league. Just how expensive the team is can be gleaaed from the following list: Delehanty................................. S4.500 Orth....................................... 33,500 Selbach.................................... $3,500 DeMoutreville............................ 33,500 Clarke. catcher........................... 33,300 Coughlin................................... 33,000 Patten...................................... 33,000 Ryan.........:............................. 32,700 Moran.......... .......................... 32,70D Carey...................................... 32,400 Townsend............. ................. $2,400 Lee....... ..................... 32.400 Holmes................................. 32,400 Robinson......................... ........ 32,400 Drill................... ..................... 32,400 Clarke, pitcher........................ 32,000 Martin.................................... 41M Total ...............................340.901V There may be a difference of a hundred or two in some of the salaries, but the above list Is practically correct, and shows to what extent the quarrel between the two leagues lifted the yearly incomes of the players. A salary list of this bort would have driven J7. Earl Wagner out of the business, but President Postal and Man ager Loftus are well enough versed In the national game to know that Washington will hack a winning team in royal fashion, and this Is the sort of an aggregation they have tried to give the local patrons. With everybody working together and for the best interests of the team, there is no rea son why Washington should not fiuein the first division of the American Leu at the end of the season, while pennant possibilities are not an idle dream. The Senators are slated for a busy period this week. Tomorrow afternoon the Bos ton National League team will go against them. Wednesday the Georgetown boys will try once more to obtain a victory, and Thursday the Baltimore ]Castern League team will be here for one game. The game tomorrow should prove un usually Interesting, as on the Boston roster are several players well known to Wash ington and very popular. Catcher Kit tridge was a great favorite while with the enators, as were Billy Lush and Pitcher Malarkey. Then there are Outfielders Car ney and Joe Stanley, two Washington boys, with hosts of friends. Fred Tenney, the great first baean, Is all that Is left of the old guard, but heis as good as over, and this year will be the Banataes' cap tan IOENI0N IN 0OI0O2ENAT. &nerican League President Conferred With Xagnat. mmnaan. President Ban B. Johnson of the A meri can League held an hours conference with President Herrmann of the Cincinnati club in that city last night. The object of Mr. Johnson's visit and the reason for the conference were not mad, known, Mr. Herrmann said they just had a friendly chat over the bas, ball situation, while Mr. Johnson said this of the conference: "I came here to talk things over with Mr. Herrnman There shoull be nothing particularly strange or mystifying about the president of the American League holding a conlerence with one of the mag nates of the National League now that the two orgnntetiona are working in har mony. Our talk was of a general nature. I am on my way to- St. Louis, and I thought I would stop of here jut to talk things over with Mr. Herrmann. * iere really is nothing going on of public in, terest." "What is the outlook In the base baN world?" was asked. "It never was better; things leek very rosy. The American League wIll have a good season this yeer.

Timely Hitting of Georgetown Won Saturday's Game. The Princeton Tigers fell a victim to the timely hitting of the Georgetown Univer udty ball tossers on the latters' field last Saturday afternoon, the score standing 6 to 5 at the end of six long innIngs, when the game was callbd on account of darkr ness. A sensational catch by Dowling and the batting of Apperfous, who made two home runs, were the notable features of the game, and afforded the 60 or more rooters opportunities to exercise their lungs. The pitchers were wild~and present ed pasm to first indiscriminatel. but the Belding on both sides was creditable. The last half of the sixth inninr was the most exciting part of the contest, and for a time things looked dark for Georgetown. It was during this inning also that Dowling made his spectacular catch. Amelle had gone to the bench on a long fly to Byrnes and McClave took the willow to try his luck. Fay was lobbing them over the plate In fine shape and McClave glued his eye to a good one and drove It on the fly about twenty feet from first base. To the spec tators It looked good for at least two sacks, but Dowling went after the white specs and jumped high In the air, sticking out his angloved hand. When he drew it back It was full of base ball, and McClave's flight tround the bases was stopped. Dowling' sensational catch was rewarded with ring Ing cheers from the rooters.

Washington Golfers Defeated in Team Match by Nine Points. The afternoon round of the golf match at Chevy Chase Saturday afternoon be tween the Washington and Philadelphia teams, played -too late for The Star, re spited in a victory for the local players, but not by a large enough margin to over come the big lead obtained by the Quak-, ars In the morning. As was predicted.. the Washington team took on a big brace over the poor showing of the morning, and fin ished with the score standing 5 to 4 in their favor. As the morning score was 15 to 5 In favor of the Philadelphia, the final score of the match stands 15 to 6. giving the vis itors a victory by nine pQints. McCammon and Davidson were the most successful In the afternoon,- defeating W. P.

A great big crowd saw the St. Louis Americans defeat the NaWonals of the same city yesterday by the score of 8 to 1, mak ing an even break on the spring series. The National League season opens up Wednesday, and next week, April 22, the . Americans get down to work. Don't for get that the New Yorks start off with the Senators In this city. New York Nationas did not play Newark yesterday afternoon owing to wet grounds. 1 More than 8,000 persons Were turned away. Contrary to general impression, John M. I Ward did not draw up the contract be tween George Davis and the New York I cdub. It was drawn up by McGraw, and comes yery near being a steel riveted doe-a ument, largely in the player's favor. According to John B.- Day, the rent of I the new New York ground is not nearly so ' much as was- frst stated-25,000 per an- I num. The rent this year Is only $6,000,. but during the ten years It will by degrees a reach $1,000. "I have noticed," said Pitcher Hah, "that those men who take things easy and 1 work deliberately get slower and slower as the years pass by. One of the quali ties that a pitcher should cultivate is quick I action. He should be able to move around ? rapidly in fielding short hits or covering a base, and also should. be able to deliver a 1 ball with quickness and precision." 1I Colonel Harry Pulliam, president of the National League, has written Secretary a Locke of the Pittsburg, team, inaclosing a. check for $1,000. ThIs is the advance f money returned by "Wid" Conroy, short- a stop of the team, who was awarded to g New York .American League QfubI by the peace compact.
