NEW H VBK,""Ct., June 3.—E.litor SPORTINQ LIFE:—"We have already lost $7000 this sea son, and unless the publio supports the team better in the future wo shall be obliged to aban don the venture." Thus spoko President Mun- son in the papers several days ago. He stated further that last season was not a financial suc cess either. That is quite a bluff, Mr. Munson, and it don't go, se«. You have had too many chances to dispose of the stock and failed to do so. The New Haven public do not awallow all they hear and only about half that they see. Tho New Havens have been playinz good ball since their return. If they continue it they will soon regain first place. *Moe" Sommers is playing a phenomenal game at right ueld.

The Team Departs; With a Good Lend Hutting and ifieldhig Averages Notes About the Players. BUFFALO, June 3.— Editor SPORTIXO LIFE: Tho home team started away on its three weeks' Eastern trip with a good lead, and has made it a better one sinoe leaving;. The way the Stars have come up after Buffalo made sotne people nervous, but the New Haven-Syracuse series is taking the Sointillators down again. Buffalo's team has done well at 1'roy, and is in first-class shape to continue its good work for an unlimi ted time. Barr and German have suffered from lame arms, but the hitter has kept up nobly, aud Barr is coming around all right. Pitcher Goodall has been laid up with la grippe, and has not officiated very reauiarlv in consequence; but, he, too, is nearly well again, aud will now take his turn na usual. Below are given the averages of the homa team to June 1. Boh Barr is tho uomluiii leader Iu hatting, but Joe IlornuUK, who hus played twenty-nine games, actually lea.ia. llnrnunjr has beou doing some great La'liug in ttie past fe* ^aiues, having seventeen hits in seven games. The first baltius< average ro[.rest.nt* the ordinary percent. nje of b.-.se hita to times at bat, aud the latter the pc-rceatage of ba.se hita aud sacri fices combined, to times at bat, which is, really, the only corrtct average, as it gives au idea how many times the phiyr'» turu at the tat resulted in an ad vantage for hla side.

COLUMBUS CHATTER. The Team Showing Up Well The Baltt- mores Playing Fine Ball Boston >ot Up to Its Gait The Work of Both TVams Compared With That ol Columbus Notes. COLUMBUS, O., "June 2.—Editor SPORTIKO LIFI;:—The local team has certainly duns itself proud since it returned from the Kits:, and it can be accounted for in the fact tliat the boys have all about recovered from the many ills they fell heir to down Kast. Easion is still on the sick list, he having caught a severe cold, which, report has it, settled on his lungs and caused the gay young twirler to get under cover at otiue and place himself iu the hands of a physician. Jack is all right now, though, and, barring weakness, i%iii ai good condition as can be expected. Catcher Donahue is all right also, al though his three weeks' wrestle with la grippe served to weaken the catcher consid erably. He will go in the Washington game! here this week. We were agreeably surprised when the team took two out of four games from Balti more last week, for while Columbus is re garded here as a good, slout team, so is Balti more, and they made the local boy* play hard, pennant-winning ball to take one-half the games. But it was done, and the real playing strength, both at the bat and in the Held, of the Columbus team for this season was first made known. The result is highly satisfactory, and we now know that we have as good a team as we had last season, if I may except our butting strength. I do not think it quite as good, but there arc those who think different. If the team will only play ball the season through as well as they handled themselves during the Baltimore series, they will not only have satisfied every enthusiast in tbis city, but will find their way up near the topof the list. OF THE BALTIMORES. I can compliment thorn -m their hard play ing qualities. They are very hard hitters and field their positions strong, with perhaps the exception of Van Haltren. His work at short here was not at all gilt ed^ej, although ha rapped tho ball hard. (Gilbert's work at third was excellent, particularly his throwing. lie cuts off many a hit by his wonderful speed in getting the ball to first. Johnson made n fine iinpross'on here by his great work. Mollaiion pitched fine pennant-winning ball here, but the work of Cunningham was quite tame. He proved a stumbling block to the team while it was playing in Baltimore, an 1 won two of the three games he pitched there, but here he didn't seem to have any speod or curves to fool the boys with, and he lost the only two games he pitched. Sam Wise at second is a strong fielder, and is to be rated with the few cracker-jacks who attend to that position in the various teatni in tho base ball business. Curt Welch rather surprised his friends in Columbus, because of hij poor hitting. In the four games he got but one hit, was sent to base on balls three times, and was bit but once with a pitched ball—Ml greatest card—and that isn't much of a record for a mm to hoad the batting list of a team of such reputed sluggers as the Baltimores are. Robinson and "Sleepy" Townsend utado favor able impressions, the former excelling in hi* work behind tho bat. THK BOSTONS WEBB OUTPLAYED at every point during the series here just closed. Columbus is a two to one better team, if the play ing of the two teams here are indications te govern by. It appears to the Columbus eye ai if the visitors were quitters. They play with out ginger. They are whipped, apparently, di rectly the other team gets a few runs aiead, and make no effort at up-hill work. This may be characteristic with old League players. We 'don't know here, for tho Boston Association if the first out and out League team we have ever had to go against in this city. Manager Irwin is reported to have said that with the ball Columbus put up here the two Memorial Day -games, no team on God's green earth had any license to whip them. With reference to the afternoon game, Mr. Irwin may be undoubtedly right, but the morning game might just as well have been Boston's as not. It is almost » good bet, if it could bo decided, that under precisely the same circumstances that sur rounded the game, had it been with St. Louis, Cincinnati or Baltimore, or the Athletics, Col umbus woald never have won it. Buffinton clearly lost it by his very wild work in the box, Comiskey, and, perhaps, Kelly would hav« taken their man out of the box if they saw hi* wildncss every inning GRADUALLY LOSING THB GAME, and particularly whon Columbus was not pal- ting up any too good a game. The same tao- tics would possibly have been adopted by most other managers in the last frame, when Colum bus was rapping O'Brion very hard, and at the same time were making horrible work of it in the field. Columbus made eight errors during tho gam* and they were all, with possibly tw» exceptions, very yellow. Why, for instance, take the first inning with Boston at the bat. There were eight men went up to the plate and two of them hit singles, one got his base on balls, one was hit by a pitched ball, and then in addition Columbus made four of the rankest fort of fielding errors, and yet the Bostons made but three runs. Knell wag In the box pitching and doinar fine work, but he evidently made up bis mind that with that sort of support he would bo done up and lose the game, and he went to work and won it himself, for but one Bo?tonese landed a safe hit after the first inning. That was a second game that Boston should have won, and it was before a crowd of over 5000. That is why I say that the Bostons are evidently quitters. Columbus hit both Haddock and O'Brlea hard, much harder than they did Buffinton, and yet were in dead good luck to get more than a single game from Boston. Rain yester day prevented the fourth game of the series be ing played. NOTES. Treasurer Cohen will represent the Coltimbul Club at the special meeting at Cincinnati. Knell and Dolan are delighting the Colum bus pcoplb with the fino ball they are pitching. Gastright is feeling in excellent shape now, and would like to go in every other day against his opponents. Jack O'Connor is now all right, and is catch ing a great game. There are few base-runoeri who care to try a steal of second on that boy. He set Tom Brown to swearing the other day when he tried it and missed. The work of Bob Wheelock at short still con tinues, and he is now an up and up cracker- jack short stop. Billy Kuehne has made ten base hits, three of which were doubles and one a home run, and but one error in the seven games he hag played since the ton in returned from the East. We certainly haven't missed Keilly very much. Duffee is making great inroads on Ralph Johnson's friends by the magnificent manner in which he covers left field territory. Your uncle, Jack Crooks, o mtinucs to eat 'em up at second. He is a great bagman and better now than ever before. Messrs. Gettinger, of the Baltimore American, and official scorer of the team, and Wills, of the Sun, are with the Baltimore Club on its Western trip. McTamany is covering more territory in centre than he previously did, and he is now re garded nu-ooe of tlieb.st in the Association. Mac wants to get the cobwebs from hU eyes and smite the ball as be- used to do; then he'll be at his proper speed. Dowse is improving in his work behind the bat, and long before tho season closes will be up with tho leading catchers. Messrg. Kdgerly, of the Boston Gl"bf, and Jake Morse, of the Hcruld, are along with the boys, pulling hard fur Boston. Col. Harry S'.r-vcns |v;t i^ .111 flpiiMi'ari'.ie here with tho Boston te.irn.

Quincy holds her laurels undisputed, her nearest competitor not yet being within striking distance. Ottumwa and Ottawa have exchanged, the former going up; Daven­ port only stayed, and now has a bustier in Rockford, and on even terms; Aurora went her previous percentage several better, and has strong hopes of eventually swapping with Joliet. Up to June 2 the record stands as given below:

NEW HAVEN NOTES.

The Club'g Claim of Financial LossesSomewhat Discredited News of thePlayers, Etc.NEW H • VBK,""Ct., June 3.—E.litor SPORTINQ

LIFE:—"We have already lost $7000 this sea­ son, and unless the publio supports the team better in the future wo shall be obliged to aban­ don the venture." Thus spoko President Mun- son in the papers several days ago. He stated further that last season was not a financial suc­ cess either.

That is quite a bluff, Mr. Munson, and it don't go, se«.

You have had too many chances to dispose of the stock and failed to do so.

The New Haven public do not awallow all they hear and only about half that they see.

Tho New Havens have been playinz good ball since their return. If they continue it they will soon regain first place.

*Moe" Sommers is playing a phenomenal game at right ueld. He piuclus every bail thut comes his way.

Our trio of twlrlers still hold their own. A hard set to bf-at, I .cau tell you.

Iu the uion.Uig game of May 30 the reporters, ID th.-ir lofty perch on t<p oT the ifrand stand, Wore ex­ ceedingly bil;iii.>ila. They issued instructions to (he umpire and phuoisnt proper tin!.»a, aud during the thrilling parts of the. name they furnished the audi­ ence with snatches of ''Annlo Kuoriev," "I'oor Jona­ than," etc. Steve ilinev, the acknowledged "humorist" of the scribes, kept a.l MI ills vicinity ia a roar.

Di:rii:g the t;:une Hartaett kicko lover one of the btilla iu tis<*. Somebody iu the bleachers called for a cr./rjU 1 t ball. 0teve Hiuey suggested n Halt ball, and S.d Farrur rulibiwl his atomaeh mournfully; but Wil­ liam Until n giibslituted a re-uhti n.

The Kffjuter published au extract from the Omaha B*-a. which described a gams iu which Jimmy Dou- Uelly participated and achieved great laurels. The article wvis ie»d with much appreciation bv Don- nelly's Ne'.v Haven frleudi, esperially those of tho femii.ine uvh'ler. 'Tis rumored that Jimmy has al- rw;dy ceuteto i liis afiections upon a certain young lady here—hut hold ou; that has nothing tu do with base b til.

Manager Burnhnm Is mnltlng the boys play ball. They all uuderstind t!tnt if tbey do not they will cer­ tainty «et their walking ticket.

"Joe" Battin has made a veiy unfavorable begin­ ning with New Hnveu audience-. Th-y are on to him w.th both feet, and he »ets p;etty thoroughly guyed. I will not say tbnt he does not decerve it.

I s. e that Doran has ijeen released by Louisville. Th^t is exactly as I predicted. He will probably show up In New Uavsu soon. E. L. HOME.

The Team Departs; With a Good Lend Hutting and ifieldhig Averages Notes About the Players.BUFFALO, June 3.— Editor SPORTIXO LIFE: —

Tho home team started away on its three weeks' Eastern trip with a good lead, and has made it a better one sinoe leaving;. The way the Stars have come up after Buffalo made sotne people nervous, but the New Haven-Syracuse series is taking the Sointillators down again. Buffalo's team has done well at 1'roy, and is in first-class shape to continue its good work for an unlimi­ ted time. Barr and German have suffered from lame arms, but the hitter has kept up nobly, aud Barr is coming around all right. Pitcher Goodall has been laid up with la grippe, and has not officiated very reauiarlv in consequence; but, he, too, is nearly well again, aud will now take his turn na usual.

Below are given the averages of the homa team to June 1. Boh Barr is tho uomluiii leader Iu hatting, but Joe IlornuUK, who hus played twenty-nine games, actually lea.ia. llnrnunjr has beou doing some great La'liug in ttie past fe* ^aiues, having seventeen hits in seven games. The first baltius< average ro[.rest.nt* the ordinary percent. nje of b.-.se hita to times at bat, aud the latter the pc-rceatage of ba.se hita aud sacri­ fices combined, to times at bat, which is, really, the only corrtct average, as it gives au idea how many times the phiyr'» turu at the tat resulted in an ad­ vantage for hla side.

COLUMBUS CHATTER.The Team Showing Up Well The Baltt-

mores Playing Fine Ball Boston >ot Up to Its Gait The Work of Both TVams Compared With That ol Columbus Notes.COLUMBUS, O., "June 2.—Editor SPORTIKO

LIFI;:—The local team has certainly duns itself proud since it returned from the Kits:, and it can be accounted for in the fact tliat the boys have all about recovered from the many ills they fell heir to down Kast. Easion is still on the sick list, he having caught a severe cold, which, report has it, settled on his lungs and caused the gay young twirler to get under cover at otiue and place himself iu the hands of a physician. Jack is all right now, though, and, barring weakness, i%iii ai good condition as can be expected.

Catcher Donahue is all right also, al­ though his three weeks' wrestle with la grippe served to weaken the catcher consid­ erably. He will go in the Washington game! here this week.

We were agreeably surprised when the team took two out of four games from Balti­ more last week, for while Columbus is re­ garded here as a good, slout team, so is Balti­ more, and they made the local boy* play hard, pennant-winning ball to take one-half the games. But it was done, and the real playing strength, both at the bat and in the Held, of the Columbus team for this season was first made known. The result is highly satisfactory, and we now know that we have as good a team as we had last season, if I may except our butting strength. I do not think it quite as good, but there arc those who think different. If the team will only play ball the season through as well as they handled themselves during the Baltimore series, they will not only have satisfied every enthusiast in tbis city, but will find their way up near the topof the list.

OF THE BALTIMORES.I can compliment thorn -m their hard play­

ing qualities. They are very hard hitters and field their positions strong, with perhaps the exception of Van Haltren. His work at short here was not at all gilt ed^ej, although ha rapped tho ball hard. (Gilbert's work at third was excellent, particularly his throwing. lie cuts off many a hit by his wonderful speed in getting the ball to first. Johnson made n fine iinpross'on here by his great work. Mollaiion pitched fine pennant-winning ball here, but the work of Cunningham was quite tame. He proved a stumbling block to the team while it was playing in Baltimore, an 1 won two of the three games he pitched there, but here he didn't seem to have any speod or curves to fool the boys with, and he lost the only two games he pitched. Sam Wise at second is a strong fielder, and is to be rated with the few cracker-jacks who attend to that position in the various teatni in tho base ball business. Curt Welch rather surprised his friends in Columbus, because of hij poor hitting. In the four games he got but one hit, was sent to base on balls three times, and was bit but once with a pitched ball—Ml greatest card—and that isn't much of a record for a mm to hoad the batting list of a team of such reputed sluggers as the Baltimores are. Robinson and "Sleepy" Townsend utado favor­ able impressions, the former excelling in hi* work behind tho bat.

THK BOSTONS WEBB OUTPLAYED at every point during the series here just closed. Columbus is a two to one better team, if the play­ ing of the two teams here are indications te govern by. It appears to the Columbus eye ai if the visitors were quitters. They play with­ out ginger. They are whipped, apparently, di­ rectly the other team gets a few runs aiead, and make no effort at up-hill work. This may be characteristic with old League players. We

'don't know here, for tho Boston Association if the first out and out League team we have ever had to go against in this city. Manager Irwin is reported to have said that with the ball Columbus put up here the two Memorial Day -games, no team on God's green earth had any license to whip them. With reference to the afternoon game, Mr. Irwin may be undoubtedly right, but the morning game might just as well have been Boston's as not. It is almost » good bet, if it could bo decided, that under precisely the same circumstances that sur­ rounded the game, had it been with St. Louis, Cincinnati or Baltimore, or the Athletics, Col­ umbus woald never have won it. Buffinton clearly lost it by his very wild work in the box, Comiskey, and, perhaps, Kelly would hav« taken their man out of the box if they saw hi* wildncss every inning

GRADUALLY LOSING THB GAME, and particularly whon Columbus was not pal- ting up any too good a game. The same tao- tics would possibly have been adopted by most other managers in the last frame, when Colum­ bus was rapping O'Brion very hard, and at the same time were making horrible work of it in the field. Columbus made eight errors during tho gam* and they were all, with possibly tw» exceptions, very yellow.

Why, for instance, take the first inning with Boston at the bat. There were eight men went up to the plate and two of them hit singles, one got his base on balls, one was hit by a pitched ball, and then in addition Columbus made four of the rankest fort of fielding errors, and yet the Bostons made but three runs. Knell wag In the box pitching and doinar fine work, but he evidently made up bis mind that with that sort of support he would bo done up and lose the game, and he went to work and won it himself, for but one Bo?tonese landed a safe hit after the first inning. That was a second game that Boston should have won, and it was before a crowd of over 5000. That is why I say that the Bostons are evidently quitters.

Columbus hit both Haddock and O'Brlea hard, much harder than they did Buffinton, and yet were in dead good luck to get more than a single game from Boston. Rain yester­ day prevented the fourth game of the series be­ ing played.

NOTES.Treasurer Cohen will represent the Coltimbul

Club at the special meeting at Cincinnati.Knell and Dolan are delighting the Colum­

bus pcoplb with the fino ball they are pitching.Gastright is feeling in excellent shape now,

and would like to go in every other day against his opponents.

Jack O'Connor is now all right, and is catch­ ing a great game. There are few base-runoeri who care to try a steal of second on that boy. He set Tom Brown to swearing the other day when he tried it and missed.

The work of Bob Wheelock at short still con­ tinues, and he is now an up and up cracker- jack short stop.

Billy Kuehne has made ten base hits, three of which were doubles and one a home run, and but one error in the seven games he hag played since the ton in returned from the East. We certainly haven't missed Keilly very much.

Duffee is making great inroads on Ralph Johnson's friends by the magnificent manner in which he covers left field territory.

Your uncle, Jack Crooks, o mtinucs to eat 'em up at second. He is a great bagman and better now than ever before.

Messrs. Gettinger, of the Baltimore American, and official scorer of the team, and Wills, of the Sun, are with the Baltimore Club on its Western trip.

McTamany is covering more territory in centre than he previously did, and he is now re­ garded nu-ooe of tlieb.st in the Association. Mac wants to get the cobwebs from hU eyes and smite the ball as be- used to do; then he'll be at his proper speed.

Dowse is improving in his work behind the bat, and long before tho season closes will be up with tho leading catchers.

Messrg. Kdgerly, of the Boston Gl"bf, and Jake Morse, of the Hcruld, are along with the boys, pulling hard fur Boston.

Col. Harry S'.r-vcns |v;t i^ .111 flpiiMi'ari'.ie here with tho Boston te.irn. Ilo wii! remain here a few ilavs nnd j in the team in St. Louis. U looks uaitiia! to see Harry on the groups.
