The game between the Ghicagos and
the Ludlows yesterday resulted, as was
expected, in a victory for the former
club. Two men from the Ludlows, Jones
and Stiles, did not play, but Doescher
filed jones' vacancy to the entire satis-
faction of every one, making one beauti-
flll and seemingly impossible stop in the
third inning. The center fielder, Hines,
of the White Stockings, made magnif-
cent play in the fourth inning, taking a
running catch in time to make double
play at second.
There was not very large crowd in
attendance owing, perhaps, to the
threatening weather. The following Is
the score:
