Tho bad support given Tener was the cause
Of the loss OF the first game at Chicago ycster-
day afternoon. Whitney was hit hard but
the hitting was desultory and his support was
fine. In the fifth inning Tener became too
sick to continue the game and Van Holtren
came IN and pitched the game out. Only two
hits were made OF him in four innings.

the sixth inning ON account of darkness. Tie
visitors were unable to find Krock, and the
champions had no trouble IN hitting O'Day
whose support was bad. Arundels finger

ished the game. Attendance $500 Scores;
