DETROIT, Mich, June l9.-Ine Iecolo
Is broken, but whether is was the broomS
that did it or the broken fingers of two OF
Detroits catchers is unknown. The down
town ticket offices were thronged all the
early part of the afternoon with people
buying base ball tickets The Woodward
avenue and Brush street car lines tried III
vain, by putting on extra cars, to accommo-
cate the crowds going to see the first Chi
cago-Detroit ball game at Recreation park
1t was worse than any Fourth of july
The Chicago procession of carriages was
noticeable for the brooms in the whip
sockets of each. At o'clock it
was estimated that there were 10000 peo-
pie on the grounds. Rows of chairs were
placed in front of the stana ten deep and
were all occupied by 3 o'clock. 1t was
found necessary to stretch rope about
half way between the diamond and the
back fence to keep the crowd back. This
necessitated making special rules barring
all home runs and three base hits. an IN
cident occurred which
CREATED MUCH ENTHUSIASM
among the DetroiterS. The Detroit man
agement saw the Chicagos and went them
one better. They procured an immense
broom five feet across, which was carried
upon the grounds. Instead OF the motto,
Record Breakers" which the Chicago
brooms bore. was displayed the
words. ''Record Makers-The Big 4 and
Five Men" At 1886 the Chicago team
arrived on the grounds in carriages, each
vehicle being drawn by four houses. The
first carriage contained Capt. Arson and
oo1o tod fThair
pearance was the signal for all outburst of
cheers and applause. The Detroit nine
hustled themselves to-day to procure a
mascot as an offset to the one in the pos
session of their opponents. and the result
was the appearance on the ground this
afternoon of young Charlie Gallaher, a
Sixth ward kid, who was adorned with the
uniform of the home team. He is said to
have been
BORN WITH TEETH
and is guaranteed to possess all the magic
charms of a genuine mascot. The Chi
Cages commenced the run getting in the

THE RECORD.
The National league clubs hold exactly
the same relative positions they held week
ago. The Detroit won four games out of
five played during the week, and the Chi
cago all of the three it played, Gaping the
climax by beating Detroit yesterday after
noon, and it is safe to wager it will win one,
if not both, of the games this week, as two
of Detroits catchers are laid up with broken
fingers. New York and Philadelphia are
both playing steady games, and either of
them may yet prove mighty big surprise
before the season closes. The record to
date is given below:
