 Haftfords Yesterday-Tw0 Thousand
 People See she Afternoon Game-The
 New Ravens Hit she Ball Hard, but
 Basiness.
 Twenty-two hundred people saw the game yesterday afternoon at the Howard avenue ground between the Hartfords and the New
 Ravens. It rained during the day, but this had little effect on the crowd. It was the same old story-defeated. The game was interesting from the start. Sworback pitched, and was very effective, but he spoiled all of his good work by giving eight men bases on balls, three of whom scored, just enough to defeat the New Ravens. Nobody could have asked for better fielding game than the New Ravens put up. They also hit the ball hard In the ninth inning the spectators went almost wild, as the home team made four runs. Lslly seems to have his eye on the ball. for he knocked out two three bsggers. One no coacher at third base to tell him to keep on. This seems to be the way the New Ravens are losing games. There is no head to the team, and the players are not made to get up to the coach line. This has happened time and again. Corcoran failed to make 8
  one was at third base to coach. O'Rourke did soroe fine throwing to oases and batted well.
 The game started off with New Haven al the bat. Lally made three bagger after two men were out, but. was not brought home The feature of the inning was a fly catch by Brady.
 In the second O'Rourke led off with g three bagger, but did not reach home as Walsh and Fitzgerald struck out. Henry hit one in front of the plate, and got his base. Say followed with a single and Henry took third. Lally caught @ nice liner from McCabe's bat Foster hit to Cahill, but he threw the ball too high to O'Rourke and Henry scored. Then O'Rourke gave z pretty exhibition of throwing by assisting in putting two men out who attempted tc steal second.
 In the third Brady led off with single Then La1ly came to the bat. "Hit it out for 8 home run," shouted the crowd. In an instant he caught it on his bat, an6 before Mr. Murphy could get it back Lally was on third and Brady had scored. Manr made beautiful running catch of Corcor- ans fly. Brady distinguished himself in this inning by splendid catch.
 The feature of the fourth was magnificent running catch by Fitzgerald. Says fou { catch in the fifth was loudly applauded. In the sixth Hartford took the lead. Say
 was given his base on balls, and scored or McCabe's three bagger. It should not have been a safe hit. for Brady misjudged it. Thi' was due to the crowd, which was close up ts him in his fielding position. New Haven tied the score in the seventh on Walsh's thrse-baggsr and Sworback's lint hit to center, which Henry muffed. In the eighth Hartford made two runs or bases on balls and home run by Murphy. There was great enthusiasm in the ninth With the score to 2 against them the New Ravens made 8 great rally at the bat.
