The Detroit team returned yesterday for
its last series Of games here, and was vel
coined by upwards Of 1000 spectators. Be
ing deprived of the services of Gerllarlt, who
had been summoned to Washington to the
bedside Of his father, the visitors presented
Knight at second base and Reilly in right
field,-changes which undoubtedly weak
ened the efficiency Of the team, but had very
little to do with the outcome. The game
was won by virtue Of Chicaso's beautiful
batting and great base-runnlng, and the most
perfect fielding would only have kept down
the score Of the victors to seven runs.
Chicago had even more to contend
with i'll tile way OF displacements in the
team, necessitated BY the illness of Quest. but
the changes were not disAdvantAgcous, Will
in1nson and Kelly filling second and third. re-

Powell sent a vicious hOunder into right field
which NicOl ran forward to gather III order to
heud him Off at first base, and secuted certain to
succeed: hut the ball took shout high over his
head and got away in spite Of a big jump for it
by tho little nlHn, and Powell reached third, and
brought In two men ou what ordinarily would
have been iii out ut first. These were Deirot's
only eurncd runs. tho tally III the eighth being
givcu by Hints Inuf Of II beautiful throw by
Kelly to heui of Wood ut the plate: Chicago got
and Fotey's tumble and wild throw Of n hit

one OF the seycrcst experiences Derby has
pnsscd through this year. and one Of the most
brilliant games the Chicagos hive ever ptaycd.
Detroit was lucky to get run ut I'LL, so admira-
BILE was Corcornns pitching and so strong his
support. The same teams play here agatn on
Tuesday and Thursday Of this week, aud thus
closes the League bail playing season in Chi
