The Fort Wayne and Indianapolis clubs

again the visitors were successful-win-
ming by score of Is to 8, making 10 base
hits "a total OF 22) and 8 errors, willis the home
club made hits Ia total OF III and five errors
The reason for such a crushing defeat is easily
understood. An ambitious young man, who is
very appropriately named Rhu, from Fostoria
o., was put in to pitch for the home club and the
Fort Wayne crowd had fun with him, batting
safely for % bases, Aud, In addition to this, Mr.
Rhu made errors, 5 wild pitches. l tumble. and
l awful overthrow. He will probably have an
opportunity to 30 back to ONO to-day. COnsid-

umpire. and Douglass Barnes u local PLAYER
finally selected He made several very had
decisions which operated equally against botb
sides. The final game between the clubs will be
played this afternoon, when Dunnely Will pitch
and a better contest Is expected. The score of
