Twin City Clubs.
The sixteenth game of the grand
struggle for supremacy between st. Paul
and Minneapolis, was played at Athletic
park Yesterday afternoon. The contest
was a pretty one for three innings, after
which St. Paul began to take kindly to
Dolan, MortOn's new pitcher, and won
by the one-sided score of IL to 4. Each
team has now won eight games and
there are two to play. The features of the
game were the remarkably heavy bat
ting of the local men and pretty catches
by DAILY, Hanrahan and Miller. The
general field play of the Flour City team
was uncertain and at times decidedly
saffron-hued. In the seventh inning it
looked for a minute as though there
would be a collision between Umpire
McDermott and Billy Halves. The lat
ter popped up little fly in front of the
plate and stood still in the batter's box.
In running for the bail Dugdale cOllided
with Halves and both fell, the ball
dropping to the ground. Umpire Nc
Dermott called Halves out for interior
ence with the fielder, and fined him IS
for saucy talk. The game opened with
Murphy facing Dolan. The sturdy
Hibernian pasted the ball out to Miller,
who made a fine stop, but threw
low to first. Carroll hit the sphere
TO Hanrahan, who. with the cOnnivance
Hengle and Minnehan. doubled up the
fieet-footed st. Paul pair. Halves also
failed to reach first. Minneapolis got
Hengle and Foster on bases, and each
added a bag by theft, but the hit Min
nehan was expected to make didn't de-
vel0p. The Apostles earned another
a.. ! lie
did better. McVey was given base as
a reward for patience. TOOK second on a
passed ball, third on Farmers bad
throw, and scored on a second passed
ball. st. Paul tied the score in the
third on Tuckerman's base on balls
and Miller's bad throw of Carroll's
grOunder In the last half of the third
Hengle led off with double,
and, after two men we're out,
Minnehan got in single, but
neither was able to score. Up to this
time the two hits mentioned were the
only ones of the game. In the fourth,
however, the Saints began to bat the
ball like demons. Hengle failed to get
Farmers hard-hit grounder to first in
time, and Meekin, Tuckermann and
Murphy followed with hits, two runs re-
sulting. In the fifth st. Paul sent ten
men to bat. The first four scored, but
HAYES ended the inning with fly to
Hanrahan, with three men on bases.
Werrick pounded the ball out of the lot
In the sixth, and Reilly went around on
his hit, a steal, Days sacrifice and
Meekin'S hit. Carroll tailed in the sew
enth on his single, a couple of
pretty steals, and Werriek's sac
rifice. This brought the score
up to ten, and two were added IN the
eighth Oh Farmers base on balls,
Meekin's hit, a couple of steals, Hanra-
mans bad throw of Tuckerman's ground
er and Murphy's single. The Flour
City men scored their second run in
the sixth inning on McVey's infeld hit,
Hanrahan'S single and Dugdale's sac
rifee. In the last three innings Meek
in was hit safely but twice. Both of
these drives. however, were for four
sacks. The attendance was 500. The
score follows:
