Special to the Globe.
DEs MONIES, July 2S.-The st. Paul
aggregation reached the city at noon to-
day and put up the new Savory hotel.
After dinner they were besieged by all
the local admirers of the game, and
were quite generally congratulated on
their successful career so far this
season. At 2 o'clock, accompanied by
the DeS Moines team and headed by a
band and a platoon of police, they
paraded the business part of the city
and were driven to the grounds. The
day was clear and hot, with just enough
air stirring to make it endurable. The
people. turned out in couples and squads
and droveS until fully 1850 had passed
the turnstile, the largest crowd that has
been out since the games with Omaha
on the Fourth. There was great deal
of interest manifested in this game. and
not little chagrin experienced over the
result. The batteries were Brynan and
Earle, and Cushman and Traffiey. The

day and right-hander the next. His
HANDS ARE BADLY BATTERED,
and while his work to-day was not per-
feet it was by no means bad. On the
other hand. Earle was quick and accu-
rate in his work, as some of the home
team found out to their sorrow in their
efforts to steal second. The game start
ed off as if there might be some slug
ging. Shafer hit the ball terrible
swipe out into Carroll's territory, but
that nimble sprinter got under it and
the orator retired. Quinn then knocked
out corking single, but was immedi-
ately nipped in an effort to steal second.
Stearns then sent the ball over Patton's
head for a safe three-bagger, but bad
coaching caused him to be thrown out
at the plate. In the second Halliday
led off with double. went to third on
Macullar's sacrifice, but died there, as
did AlvOrd and Van Dyke. After this
the home team did not get a man be-
yond first until the seventh inning. In
this inning Halliday got base ON balls
and scored on Macullar'S clean three
bagger. Alvord struck out and Macul-
lar scored Oh Van Dykes single. Earle
moment later attempted to catch Van
Dyke mapping at first, but he threw
little wild and the runner went to third,
scoring moment later on Traffiey's
sacrifice. Cushman ended the inning
by being thrown out by Shafer at first.
But one man reached first in the next
two innings. 1t was in the third that

Earle was the first man at the bat and
lined single and stole second. Then
Brynan made single and Earle in at
tempting to score on the hit got caught
at the plate on fine throw by Halli-
day, Brynan going to second on the
play and afterwards stealing third.
Carroll then hit a grounder to Quinn,
and Brynan in the attempt to score was
thrown out. The work of running him
down took some little time, and when it
was accomplished it was found that
Carroll was anchored on third. He
afterwards scored on Murphy's single,
and Morrissy's three-bagger over Shat
fer's head sent Murphy home. Pickett
ended the inning by striking out. Then
visitors down without hit except a
three-bagger by Morrissy in the sixth,
but as

from TIaffley to Alvord, nothing re-
suited from it. But in theaseventh the
visitors again fell afoul of Cushman in
the most productive fashion. Patton
knocked out single and went to third on
wild pitch and scored on Reilly's single,
the latter going to third on Shafer'S
single. Earle and Brynan both failed
to reach first. The game was tie and
Carroll was at the bat. He sent one to
Cushman and the long-armed pitcher
reached out and stopped it. The ball
dropped to the ground and Cushman
picked it up leisurely and finally threw
to first. 1t went spinning over Stearns'
head and out of his reach, rolling clear
to the fence. Reilly and Shafer scored
and Carroll went to third and soon after
crossed the plate on Murphy's single.
Murphy was afterwards caught by
Macullar, but Cushman's error had lost
the game. Score:
