LoaeeroAys
The Quicksteps weht to Harrisburg to
|, play championship game yesterday, and
the result was announced by the following
dispatch received about o'clock In the
evening from Manager Waitt:
"HARRIsBURG, June 4.-6 p. m.-Quick-
step 2, Harrisburg 10; four Quickstep play-
ers crippled by Schappert, pitcher; umpir-
ing outrageous"
The practice OF disabling players of the
opposition nine by striking them with the
ball is favorite one In Harrisburg, par
ticularly with Schappert, who takes advan-
tage OF every opportonity offered. The
roughs of Harrisburg, who generally attend
all games In that city in large numbers,
support and encourage these Contemplate
proceedings, and this combined with
the natural fear entertained nv
the players of being struck and seriously
injured by the ball, enables the Harrisburg
club to win every game played on its own
grounds. If any thing else is necessary to
secure victory 1t is generally furnished by
the umpire. dispatch to the Philadei-
phia PeeSs IN reference to this game says:
"The Harrisburg base ball club defeated
the Quicksteps I Wilmington, in a cham
pionship game here to-day by score of 12
to g. In the first inning McKenna was at
the bat and was struck by a ball pitched by
Schappert. He promptly threw the bat at
| Schappert, and the latter narrowly escaped
being hit. He threw the bat back at Nc
Kenna and just missed the umpire"
Bresnaham and Snyder were also struck,
and Parker received such a severe blow on
the head that he was rendered unconscious
| for several minutes.
The following was the score of the alleged
game:
Harrisburg ....... ii 2 x-12
OTHER GAMES.
PHILADELPHIA, June 4.-The Athletics
turned the tables on the Columbus niue to-
day and easily defeated them by score of
to 2. The 5000 spectators enjoyed the
game hugely up to the fourth inning, when
the home nine took the lead, but after that
1t was devoid of interest, except for the very
fine fielding of the Athletics. The only error
made In the game by the latter was muffed
fly ball by Stricken. The Columbus nine
did not play very brilliantly in the field, but
they did just as good batting as the Athletics,
with the exception that their hits, after the
first inning, were scattered, while those of
the home nine were well punched. Brilliant
running catches by Birchal and Corey were
the features of the contest score

UNLUCKY PHILLIEs.
The Philadelphia and Detroit mines gave
a splendid exhibition of fielding at Recrea-
tion Park yesterday, but the superior bat
ting Of the visitors won them victory by
score of 10 to 8. Coleman made two errors,
which gave the Detroits the first runs they
made, and on both occasions he had
chance for double plays. In the first
inning he threw wildly to second
base, which gave two runs, and In the
fourth inning, with three ON bases, he FUN
bled hit from Weidnan which should have
disposed of the side without any runs. The
home nine hit hard, but wherever the ball
went there always seemed to be a Detroit
player to meet 1t and number of very

NOTES.
In response to kilograms asking the League
clubs to consent to 25 cents admission in Phil
adelphia, Manager Reach has received four
replies. Detroit and Cleveland are in favor
oft, while Chicago refers to one of the con-
stitutional laws of the League and "don't
see how 1t can be done," and Buffalo is of
about the same opinion as Chicago. New
York, Providence and Boston are yet to be,
heard from.
