Baseball Talk.

CHICAGO, June 9-The Journal, to.
night, says: Yesterdays Chicago
New York game pretty clearly demon
ssrates that some players in the Chicago
team have made up their minds not to
support Van HslterD. There can be no
question on this point in the mind of
any one who will read the accounts OF
tine game. The costly and rotten errors
Fof Ryan aud Pfeiffsr will not be over

game who is familiar with the records
of these players. What the reason of
| it can be is question. Van Ha4tern
has always been personally popular
with the other members of the team
and all have Invariably spoken in the
highest possible terms of the Califor-
MAN. Some weeks ago, however,a num-
Der of the leading papers of the country
predicted that VanHaltern would be
the leading pitcher OF the team since
Clarkson left. Both Baldwin and Krock
have friends among the Chicago play
ers who may have taken umbrage at
this assertion and-wel1 the word of Mr..
Ryan and Pfeitfer yesterday would in
dictate that they are no friends of Van.
If any such contemplate thing as this
exists, Captain Arson cannot sit down

victory, and Van Haltern pitched
h Characteristic clever game. In the
fifth. however, the wretcned work If
Pleiffer and Ryan smacked SO much
of international malice that Van Hal
tern ceased trying to pitch g. winning
game. Were Van an untrCe man. il
might be reasonable to assert that he
lost heart simply because he was being
pounded hard, but those who have seen
the Californian pitch hard brilliant ball
during three or four innings when his
support was simply disgracefuI ami
continue his clever, cool-headed and
heavy work until he shamed his fielding
into better support than yesterday,
Is an indisputable argument against it.
1t would be unfortunate indeed were
any factional 10 arise in the team at this
time when the boys are in the lead and
playing on the eastern ground and if
there is slightest suspicion of such,
Captain Arson should crush it in its
incipiency. Van Haltern has proved
! himself too good player to be made q
monkev of, as he was yesterday.
WAsHIT GToE, June 9.-The Washing
tons presented another game to Indian
apolis to-day, by miserable fielding and
weakness at the bat. Score Washing
ton 8, indianapolis 4.
PHILADELPHIA, June 9.-The game
with Pittsburg to-day, lacked interest,
although it was close. Both pitchers
were unsteady. Score-Philadelphia 2,
Pittsburg 1.
NEW YORK, June "a great crowd
