WASHINGTON, Sept 30.-Poor base-running
on the part of Gilligan and their inability to hit
Flynn safely when men were on bases, lost the
first game of the series to the Chicagos to-day.
On three occasions, when the bases were full,
base hit would have won the game, but it was
lacking. In the fifth inning, with three men on
bases and one out Farrell sent long fly to
Ryan which was accepted. Gilligan who was
on third had plenty of time to beat the ball
home, which would have tied the score, but he
remained steadfast TO the base, to the disgust
of the large crowd present. The game was called
while the visitors were at the bat in the seventh
inning on account of darkness. Score:
