After the severe mnuling Bert Keyesadministered in Savannah on Thanks-giving Day thoro were many who beHevcd that Sullivans days s a fighterwere over snd that if he was to reenter the ring It would be in pre-liminaries

But lent night there was a totallydifferent tale From a point of viewof physical condition Sullivan appearedin as prime shape as at any time dur-ing long career and had no troubleIn making the weight He had to concede a decides advantage in height andreach to his oppaneiit but once

Sullivan Handicapped-One of the handicaps under which

Sullivan has labored In some of hisfights has ben his inability to change hisstyle quickly for he has relied mostlyupon forcing hIs way te his opponentsregardless of the hammering he himselfhas received in attempting to deliver ateUirc blow

EUSTACE IS LATESTTO JOIN NATIONALS

Captain of Pottsville Team Signed to Scour Both Leaguesfor Talent to Bolster Up

Decision of Umpire Kerin

By THOMAS KIRBY

ClubExplanation-of

And still they comeWhen ithe Nationals awoke this morn

Ing they found that their ranks hadbeen augmented the adtftion of another time to a thirdbaseman In the person of Frank J Eustace who halls from PottsviHc-

Eustace can hardly be described as ablushing youth as he has quite a ca-reer on the diamond his last engage-ment with the Poltsvliie dub ofthe Atlantic League which ue captainedand for which he played third base andshortstop As is an outlaw

there were no preliminaries to btgone through in matter of afor within an hour

Cantiloin had made a uenuite offer toEustace the player was bound for Wash-ington case und battintaverage

intends to have his latestacquisition scour the bush leagues foryoung Lajoles and Wagners t saidto be an expert at up young play-ers and he can make at that willbe extended a triple welcome oy the

lin and Johnson and Bodes and Cyare the morning choices as

pitchersAlthough confidentWe ruse has beon

mcule over th decision at the timethere was nothing unprecedented-in the ruling of Umpire Kerin in tImeninth inning of yesterdays secondgame Lajoie was on first when Hinchman raised a fly which Delehanty Intontlally trapped and then threw tosecond to force

Lajoie and Hinchman both stood OrT

base and the umpire directed theletter instead of the former to go offHe immediately changed when he rea

that Hinehmtt had done the hitting and recalled Hinchman and sentLajoie to the bench

The decision not affect the playeither way as it was simply a mistake in calling the wrong Therewas no question of interpretation

A batter who raises an infield flyis out only when first and second orall of the bases are occupied

Jimmy Sobring late of the TriStatewill play this afternoon with

Kelleymay be tried out in the infield

A repetition of the last of doubleis calculated to bring on melan

cholia so the least said the better Yes-terday Witherup withered up and got a6to6 beating but the second wasnotable because of two things Firstthe NaUonals scored their first run infour contests and secondly CharleSmith pitched his beet game in manymoons

When it was announced that Smithwas to perform there were insympathetlc Jeers from the bleachers but thisseemed to rouse the pitcher to his bestefforts for had it not been for a braceof errors which the Naps a pair ofruns the contest might have gone intoextra session

a better game of ballthan Falkenberg but indifferent supportcaused the downfall of the former

Jack Lelivelt was the star of theafternoon in the fielding line He made-a of running catches thatscintillated while both he and WarrenMiller showed that they have remarkable throwing arms

Each df the newcomers had two op-portunities for long throws and thethey heaved the bell made the Napsbe careful on the bases

Miller had a bad day at the bat but Inthe field he showed a world of
