The game was close one throughout
and holly, even desperately, contested, OF
both sides. Some dissatisfaction was ex
pressed at the decisions of the umpire ant
he was said to favor the Fisk club. w,
think Mr.. Mead meant to be perfectly fai
in his decisions and that he did not inten
tionally show any favoritism or partialit,
to either club. But when so much none,
is at stake there is sure to be more or les
grumblng, and if base ball must descen,
to the level of a horse-race and be connect
ed with pool-selling and betting it must b
governed and carried on in the same way
When an umpire is settled upon mutual
between the clubs to decide a game tn
only way is to abide by his ruling.
The two clubs, who played, did nc
complain more than is usual at such times
the principal trouble came from outsid
hackers. We append the
