GLASGOW, March 21.-TNew York Herald
Cable Special to The BEE. THE baseball
teams arrived here at O'Clock this morning
from Bradford, and ali day long the elegant
special train of the party was admiringly in
spected by hundreds of people who gazed
curiously through the car windows, and de-
parted only to return and gaze again at the
train. The weather to-day was cold and
clear, and the boys found ii comfortable to
wear their fur lined overcoats as they strolled
about the town during the morning.
The intended visit Of the party had been well
heralded, and before their arrival hundreds
of people had gathered at the station anxious
to see the players. Everybody seemed de-
sirous of contributing in some way to the
warm welcome extended to the teams. AT 2
O'Clock big double decked, fbur-horse drag
drew up beside the train and the players, IN
full uniform, mounted it IN the presence of
yer five hundred people, A two mile drive
took them to the West of Scotland
Cricket clubs grounds. They are
in particularly attractive part of the city.
The diamond had been laid out when we got
there, and the ground presented beautiful
appearance. Over one thousand people were
present when the teams arrived at the
grounds, and they made general rush for
the gates, which they blockaded so that the
players had to force passage through them.
There were 5000 people present when the
game commenced. 1t was q pretty game,
and was characterized by good work by the
outfeld, which elected the hearty
applause of the audience. Owing to
the cold weather the game consisted
of but seven innings, after which two in
nings of exhibition play were indulged in.
The hard batting was the feature of the
game that pleased the spectators most,
while the many flies to far outtield that were
captured in beautiful style by Fogarty, Han
lon, Brown, Sullivan and DAILY elected long
and enthusiastic applause. Earl and Crane
did the bulk of the batting for the All Amer
icas, and were the great favorites of the
crowd in consequence. Altogether the game
was one that would have sent q New York
audience home in the happest frame of
mind imaginable, provided, of course, the
league champions had won it.
BY the by, Anson says he is gong to knock
Keefe and Welch out of the box this summer
Crane says if Anson ever gets to first he'll be
lucky man. He claims to have discovered
Anson's weak point and thinks he can come
pretty near striking him out eight times in
ten.
BY timely hitting Chicago scored two runs
in the first inning on safe hits by Ryan, Sui
livan and Anson and Pettitt's sacrifice send
ing Ryan and the old man across the
plate. During the next the next three
innings Chicago had but ten men to
the bat, and none Of these got further
than second. Baldwin's three-bagger and
Daly's sacrifice, however, added another run
in the eighth inning, and Carroll's muff of
Burns infield hit, followed by Daly's double
helped Anson's men to their fourth and last
run. The boys in gray played an excellent
game, but Baldwin was mt hard. The All
Americas went first to the bat and made a
pretty start. Hanlon sent a Dagger to
left and Brown reached first on the play that
retired Fogarty at second, Hanlon reaching
third. Then Baldwin, in an attempt to catch
Hanlon mapping at third, threw the ball Just
far enough over Burns head to permit
both Hanlon and Brown to score, the
latter, by close shave and a desperate
slide, which set everybody cheering. Earle's
single and Cranes fine three-base drive to
left added another run in the second and so
the game proceeded, All America fielding
and running bases in beautiful style and
making some Of the prettiest hits ever re-
corded anywhere.
A triple by Earle, double by Crane and
singles by Hanlon and Fogarty netted two
more runs in the fourth and one more was
secured in the fifth by Earle's double and
Tener's tumble of Bob Pettit's poor throw
from right field. Singles by Fogarty, Brown,
and Wood gave the boys in white their last
two runs in the seventh.
1t can be safely said that the game left a
good impression on the Glasgow people. The
fine fielding was generally admired among
the spectators while the lively work with
the stick afforded plenty of amusement.
The party tonight accepted Osmond
Tearle's invitation to see "King Lear' at
supper afterward
The teams leave at midnight for Manches-
ter.
