fact a little more so. He held the

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2-I.— The na
tional board of arbitration of the Na
tional league did not meet at the Fifth
Avenue hotel today. President N. B.
Young is ill, and sent bis son, Robert
Young, secretary of the board, to act
in his place.
Of those interested only F. DeH.
rtobifccn, of Che Cleveland club, was
present at the hotel thia morning, and
he and Mr. Young talked the situation
over. Mr. Robison saiid he had been
empowered at a meeiing yesterday j
with A. Soden, of the Boston club, and j
J. T. Brush, of the Cincinnati^, to act 1
for them today. It was decided to
send a dispatch to the various members
of the board of directors of the league,
asking them to reconsider their de
cision in the New York-Baltimore case
in regard to the suspension of Holmes,
of Baltimore. It was thought wiser to
allow N. E. Young, president of the
league, to cast a single vote for the
board.
Mr. Robison saiid today that the
beard, in the opinion of nearly every
one on base ball, had done wrong in
suspending Holmie3. Holmea certainly
had a right to be openly charged and
officially tried. The board should re
verse its action, and then, if it wished
to bring action again?* Holmes, It
could do so. He said that under the
decision Holmtes could legally play to
day, but tomorrow he canr.»t, so if the
Baltvmoias' opponents lost tomorrow
they can proteist. This might go on
•the same way with every club in tha
league and cause complications. Ho
said that the board of arbitration will
not meet because it Is positive the
board of directors will reverse its ac
tion. If t^ie New York club chooses to
make a complaint then against Holmes
it can do so. He said that part of the
decision was not unconstitutional, but
he thought- the fine of $1,000 on the
New York club was too heavy. He
said that Mr. Brush and Mr. Soden,
as well as the rest of the base ball fra
ternity, considered the suspension of
Holmes without a hearing was uncon
stitutional, and had no doubt the
board of directors would reconsider.
He was eroinar home today. Mr. Young
would also leave.

They Are Secured by Comiskey for
tlie St. Paul Team.
Manager Cornii'?key spent yesterday
ln Chicago, and according to telegraph
ic advices he made a pretty good day
of It
He secured Isbeli's release from Chi
cago, alrhough what he paid for it does
not appear. Isbell, however, left Chi
cago last night for Columbus, where
he will join the team today. It is not
known here whether he will pitch or
fill in the place in the field made va
cant by Campau's release.
There was some talk about Eddie
Burke being taken back, but It is un
derstood that this is not official.
Comiskey yesterday also secured
"Hub" Knoll, who has been a good
hitting outfielder ln this leagrue for a
number of years.

ST. LOUIS, Mo., Aug. 24.— The Browns
came home last night from an Eastern trip
more disastrous than the previous one.
They did not clear expenses, and tomorow
Manager Hurst will aid Receiver Mucken
fuss in a hustle for money to pay the m«n,
for their salaries are in arrears. The sala
ries are due Sept. 1, and at present a long,
searching look into the coffers of tho club
fails to reveal anywhere near $5,0f!0, the
amount that will be necessary to pay the
boys. The trip East was barren of finan
cial fruit, and, while It la not so stated of
ficially, it is rumored that Hurst had to
dig up the price back from his friends.

BASE BALL. BRIEFS.
Umpire McDonald's decision ln the Chi
cago-Brooklyn game last Sunday, when he
called Connor out for failing to retouch third
4 fl Se ,^ fore , r " nilin X on Everett's muffed
lnneld fly, will not hold water, says the Chi
cago Record. President Young, when queried
yesterday for a decision upon the play In
question, wired back that the run counted
and the batter was out. It was a casa where
three men were on bases and one out. Ever
itt hit an infield fly, which Hallman trapped
Connor, leading well off third, broke for the
plate and reached It before the ball. Mo-
Donald called Everltt out, and when Griffith
protested that Connor was out for running
on a fly ball decided against tho Chicago seo
ond baseman, retiring the side. Burns had
good grounds for a protest had Chicago lost.
Charley Comiskey, of St Paul, dropped off
ln Chicago yesterday while hl» team waa
traveling to Columbus, and went over to sea
President Johnson. Both men were discus
sing the play, holding that McDonald wag
wrong and that the run should h*r* counted.
"You can never tell -what empires will do
or how they -will rule on certain plays," said
Comiskey. "Now, there U a rule which say*
that only three outs can bo counted against
a side. We were playing in a game not long
ago when this situation arose i There were
two out and two men on bases. Phy'le hit a
ball clean to the fence — a home run. He was
Jostled on third base, however, and caught,
making the third out Then the captain of
the team declared that one of the men on
bases was out for cutting second and that
the run did not count, and. 00 the umpire
decided."

Comlskey has signed Hahn, the ex-Detroit
er. He waa given a trial yesterday at Co
lumbus, and Loftua' team found him for
fourten hits. Comiskey "allows" that he will
have to do better work than that to stay with
his team. The St. P*ul manager was going
home to St. Paul, but deoided that he had
better go with his team to Indianapolis, so
as to bring home a few victories. — Chicago

Charlie Comlakey says he thinks Hart will
make a mistake if he relies upon Green to fill
regularly a position on the team. "You
can't win the pennant in the National league
with a team of young minor leaguers, no
matter how good ball they may have put ud
in slower company," said the St. Paul mag
nate. "They must be thoroughly tried in the
smaller leagues, and it takes time to work
them out. Isbell, for example, has the mak
ing of a first-class player, but he needs more
preparatory work. Why, I only had him
about six weeks. I took him off a farm
toward the close of the season, and the Jump
to the big league wa3 too great. In two years
niore he will be as fast as any of them.
The same principle, I think, will hold true in
the case of Green. Denzer also made a big
jump when he came to Chicago, but Roger
la not a natural ball player, and will prob
ably stay in his present conwaay." — Chicago
Cbreaielo.

Speaking of pitchers, Comlskey claims that
Phyle is the best in the Western league, and
Taylor and Philippe he also considers as good
men. All three have been mentioned as pos
sible Chicago players— in fact, every good
player in the Western league has been men
tioned as being booked for Chicago. Comls
key claims that President Hart has secured
thirty-eight at least, but that he got the best
man when he got ilertes. — Chicago Tribune.

The Indianapolis players are not hitting the
Mil, and it is only the excellent work of th«
box men that keeps the team in the race
in the last five games they have only made
twenty-six hits, an average of about five
to the game. In the same time they have
made seventeen runs, winning three and
losing two o£ the contests. No team can
hope to win the Western league pennant with
that sort of batting. Manager A.llen should
ge his men together and work them as he
did early in the season. There has not been
a time in the East four years when the
Jloosiers showed up as poorly with the stick
as they are right now, and it is high time

Yesterday waa a red letter day at
White Bear, as the third day's events
of the In)terlake Yacht association
resulted in victory for the home club's
representatives in two of the classes
and a defeat in the seventeen-foot
class, which would easily have been
a victory, but for an untimely acci
dent which occurred before the race
was well started, coupled with a foul
by Capt. Hopkins' sloop, We're Fere
Capt Drake, of Xenia, the White
Bear Yacht, filed a formal protest
against the captain of the Minnetonka
boat, immediately following the races
The regatta committee disallowed the
protest, however.
As It was. Xenia was only defeated
by one minute and thirty-two seconds
She sailed the entire course with a
cracked mast, in addition to having
her spinnaker torn away in We're
Here's foul.
The conditions for fast and snappy
racing at White Bear were ideal yes
terday, and it is due to the steady
gale which swept across the lake all
day that the White Bear club is cred
ited with the third straight victory
i£ th€ ! twenty-foot class, giving Mahto,
the club's entry, the championship of
the Inland Lake association for the
year, and the possessor of the hand
some trophy offered by that organiza
tion.
The result of the Hoodlum-Akela
race was not a surprise, as both vic
tories of the Boston champion have
been accomplished under circumstances
which were decidedly unfavorable to
Capt. Giigg's craft.
Hoodlum, the unbeaten champion of
Boston, suffered defeat yesterday ME
the first time in two seasons, having
sailed nearly sixty racea without being
passed.
Ti l e S?, 1 ? 1^ between the Hazard.
Capt. Pillsbury's crack Minnetonka
yacht, and Mahto was one of the best

The two boats easily ran away from
the field, as they did on the preceding
days, and at times there was but a
few seconds' time between them Haz
ard started out to win the race, and
for the first two legs of the course it
looked decidedly discouraging for the
White Bear boat. However, rucining
to windward, she made up the few
seconds which separated her from the
leader and kept a little in advance
thereafter. She easily won in two
minutes and thirty-three seconds.
Today's racing will be limited to the
contest between seventeen and twen
ty-three-foot class. Hoodlum now has
two victories to her credit, and, if the
wind is light, today's races will prob
ably determine the ownership of the
trophies hung up by the association
for his class. On the contrary, if it
blows a good stiff breeze, Akela's
chances are excellent for taking a sec
ond race, as she was fitted with Aure
lia's mainsail yesterday, which puts
her on a more equal basis with the
Boston champion.
The seventeen-footers will also bat
tle for supremacy today, and. at best,
two more races will have to be sailed,
as each of the two leaders has a race
to its credit.
The racing in the twenty-foot claw
having been completed the Osfhkosh
sailors left last night for their homes
but the rest of the visiting yachtsmen
will stay to attend the banquet which
will be given in their honor at Ra
maley's tonight.
When the starting gun wag fired at
2:05 the wind was blowing ten knots
an hour with quite a sea running.
The twenty-footers were started at
2:15 p. m. and Hazard immediately
started in to run away from the field.
She partly succeeded and was well on
her way before Mahto got her big
spinnaker up for the free run to cen
ter, Monoqutt, the Indiana boat wihich
made such a poor showing the day be
fore, responded with a great burst of
speed and to center the six big fel
lows tore at a seven-knot clip.
The seventeen-footers were started
at 2:20. They were all ckse to the line
when the signal was given and as they
all passed nose to nose Fred Bigelow
notified the judges that Xenia had
cracked her mast and they were re
lying on her stays to temporarily avert
its going by the beam.
The boats got away dangerously
clo?e together. Before reaching center
"We're Here" caught her boom in
Xenia's shroud, and in getting away
caught the spinnaker stay, and broke
it. On this point there is a dispute.
Oapt. Hopkin's men say they did not
come within ten feet of Xenia, while
Capt. Drake says that he was to wind
ward and therefore had the right of
way and that We're Here came too
close with the above result. The rules
of the club say that the yacht to the
leeward must give the windward boat
way.
Mahto's pallors exhibited excellent
judgment throughout the race, and did
fine work to windward. She caught
Hazard at Wildwood buoy and from
there on it was a very close race. lota
was third, but was losing distance
to Monoquet. From Wildwood to cen
ter Hazard losit ground. In the face
of a head wind the yachts tacked back
and forth, and by a long tack Mahto
pointed the center buoy and crossed
twenty seconds ahead of Hazard. Ord
way kept up a winning gait right
along. From Center to Glark street
Hazard lost twenty-eight seconds, leav
ing her one minute and four seconds
astern.
The relative positions of the boats in
this cla-ss wm not changed during the
remainder of the race, except that
Monoquet, who secured third plaoe by
a neat tack at the finish line, defeat
ing lota by ten seconds. The race
throughout wa« close arid interesting,
"CABCARETS do all claimed for them

The Hoodlum-Akela race brought
out the best qualities of the boat*.
With the wind blowing twelve knots,
Akela soundly defeated the Massa
chusetts boat by six minutes and'fif
teen seconds.
The Hoodlum was given eight sec
onds' time allowance, and was thor
oughly outsailed at every point. It
was a magnificent race. At times the
sails of the boats nearly touched the
water, but each time they were right
ed by skillful management of their
crews and brought up to the wind.
At Dellwood buoy Hoodlum led the
White Bear craft sixteen seconds, 'and
at center on the first trip around she
was nineteen seconds ahead. At the
Wildwood buoy Hoodlum's lead waa
not increased. Both boats had taken
down their spinnakers, which had sup
planted their Jibs on the free run to
Wildwood and were beating back
Hoodlum just a little in advance.
Akela now showed some une racing
qualities. To the windward on the
two-knot run to Clark street she pass
ed the open water between her rival,
and at the Clark street buoy lead by
three minutes and seven seconds. On
■the run to center on" the second trip
around the course, Hoodlum made up
about a minute of her lost time. At
Dellwood, however, in beating up to
the buoy, she lost. On her ruh to
Wildwood, Griggs gained another
twenty seconds, and Hoodlum shook
out a reef which cost her ten seconds
more on the run to center.
It was on the beat from Wildwood
to the finish that Akela made her
gains early in the race, and she du
plicated them before home was reach
ed. She crossed the line six minutes
ahead of Hoodlum. Her actual time
was two hours, five minutes and forty
seconds, the fastest time ever made
over the course.
The regatta committee, at Its meet-
Ing last evening, considered the claim
on the part of Hazard's owners that
sine was fouled by lota in Tuesday's
race. The foul was allowed, but It
did not make any difference in the re
sult of the race, which will therefore
not have to be resailed.
In the matter of the foul claimed
by the owner of Xenia the foul waa
not allowed, so "We're Here" wins tha
contest of yesterday.
It was decided to sail the East vs.
the West this forenoon and the other
race this afternoon, as has been the
custom heretofore.

READY TO MEET IT.
What Mrs. Ilotkiii Says o<f the Cliaree
of Murder Against Her.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 24.— The ar
rest of Mrs. W. A. Botkin at S-tocUton
on the charge of murdering Mrs. John
P. Dunning: and Mrs. Joshua Deane, at
Dover, Del., by means of poisoned can
dy sent from this city, has excited
much interest. In the ounty Jail after
her arrest, she was not at all willing
to make a statement of what would
be her defense or how she felt about
being charged with murder, saying
merely: "I feel very well, thank you,
and am quite ready to go. I have got
ten past all the humiliation of the
charge. I am ready to meet it."
Mr. Botkin stoutly asserts the in
nocence of his wife. Detective Gibson,
who assisted In the arrest of Mrs. Bot
kin, states that he has no warrant for
the arrest of any other woman. He
thinks that Mrs. Botkin will break
down and has taken precaution^ to
prevent her from committing suicide.
She was much agitated when told that
she woukl have to stand trial on a
charge of murder, but soon recovered
hereelf and said that the charge would
have to be proved.
A trunk belonging to Mrs. Botkin
was seized in this city today by De
fective .Seymour 5 . Cnle? of 'Police Eeei
has not yet opened it and will not do
so until forma-l extradition papers are
received from Delaware.
DOVER, Del., Au£ 24.-^Tohn P. Dun
ning, whose wife and slster-ln-law
were poisoned by candy sent from San
Francisco, has made a statement to
the As-sociated Press. He says: "I have
talked with the attorney general and
other state officials of Delaware, dis
closing all facts within my knowledge
which could possibly lead to the de
tection of the persons whose act caused
this tragedy. From the moment I
learned of the fiendish murder of my
wifa and sister in-law, upon my ar-
T V f 1 J n ,,, New York from p<>r to Rico
Iw ™ ay> m * one has been
that the guilty should be brought to
justice. I have withheld nothing from
the officials which could lead to the
detection of the criminal. But for two
reasons I must refuse to make any
statements for publication. First, be
cause it might defeat the ends of jus
tice, and, second, because innocent per
sons might be involved. I will con
tinue to maintain this course even at
the risk of subjecting myself to unjust
criticism."
COL. PAGE BETTER.

Col. Page continues to improve and yester
