PHILADELPHIA, May 4-Philadelphia won an
other game from New York to-day by hard hit
ting They earned five runs. and obtained six
additional TALES through the miserable fielding
of the visitors. The entire infield of the New
Workers., with the exception Of Esterbrook,
seemed to be ratified at times, and Ward, at
short, was decidedly off. Casey opened the
game by giving four OF New York's first batters
their bases on balls. This, with wild throw by
MCGUIRE resulted in three runs without hit
Casey then became steady, and the giants only
secured five scattering hits in the game. Dark
ness stopped the game. Score:

PITTsBURa, May 4 - The Pittsburgs put
