Refused Kings-| ton's Request for a Sudden- Death Game. Niagara Falls, Oct. 6.--President W. J. Bnyder of the O. B. A. A. noti- { filed Niagara Falls baseball club last { evening that Kingston Ponies had defaulted the final series for the championship owing to the fact that could not be granted. The local club felt that it would be unfair to the fans of both cities to decide the ser- ies by a sudden death game. Also it is not fair to the clubs as there is too much at stake to be decided in one contest. Fans in this district were looking forward to the coming series and next Saturday's game at the Bridge Street grounds would have been attendéd by the largest crowd that has ever been present at a ball game in this district. Cataracts are also disappointed at Kingston, being unable to go through with the series as arranged. Local Club's Letter. The following is the letter sent to the 0.B.A.A. by President Steacy upon receipt of the announcement of the playoff dates: Kingston, Oct. 5th A. J. Walsh, Secretary 0.B.A.A, Toronto. Sir: Your wire confirming dates for senior playoff series received, Wednesday at Kingston and Saturday at Niagara Falls. In reply would say that the local field is in an unplay- able condition owing to the heavy dowapour of rain of Sunday and to- day and even providing fine weather, would not be in shape before Friday or Saturday. \ Owing to the lateness of the sea- son, the uncertainty of the weather governing future games, inability to keep our players together for # longer period than this week, would suggest a sudden-death game on any neutral grounds, otherwise we will be forced to default the playoff. Yours truly, their wish for a sudden-death game | in Ontario amateur baseball circles over the fact that the Kingston team { has decided to default the final { round to the other finalists, Niagara | Falls. The schedule arranged by the | Ontario Baseball Amateur Associa- tion provided for a game at Kingston | to-morrow and second at Niagara | Falls on Saturday. The Limestone | City management applied for .re- | vision of arrangement pleading for | a sudden-death game to which the Falls would not agree, whereupon Ited and the Cataract come' Ontario senior | Kingston def. | city team | champions. { [ Late J.
