NABBED BILLY SUNDAY.
thinner caught the agile and e1uberant
Mr.. Sunday in his first attempt to commit
larceny on second and after that the Pitts
burg sprinter was very careful how he at
tempted to make a steal. The order of bat
ting was changed and the Pittsburgs sent
in to take their turn with the stick first.
The Smoky City colts could do nothing un-
til the third inning. With one man out
"Foghorn" Miller got his base on balls.
Hecker marched up to the plate and caught
one of Beatln's slow drops in a painful way
and raped it safely toward the outfeld,
sending Miller jogging to second. Kelly,
the big youth who prances about in left
field, cleared the bases with a triple and
every body was happy that he wore Pitta-
burg uni orm. La Roeue's foul to Smalley
and Dunlap's slow hit to Beatin ended the
run-getting or Pittsburg in that inning.
In the fifth Smoky City drew another score.
Wilson died at first, Baker knocked nice
little single to left.
A FORTUNATE ERROR.
Sunday could do no better for his country
than force Baker out at second, but Smallev
saved Pittsburg's chances by fumbling
Hemp's grounder and then Miller's single
sent the run in. The Pittsburgs tied the
score in the eighth on Miller's base on balls.
Ardner's tumble of Hecker's hit and his
pass of Zimmer's assist Cleveland began
scoring in the fourth, when DAILY was given
his base on balls, Baker followed with
similar dose for thinner and Davis hit to
left center, sending DAILY home. With two
men on bases Veach lifted the ball for
double and sent both runners home. In the
sixth Davis got another run on Kelty's muff
and a single by Ardner. thinner won the
game for Cleveland in the eighth BY daring
base running. He got his base on balls and
went to second on a sacrifice. wild pitch
and daring slide home brought in the
winning run and settled the game. Heck
er's colts tried hard to tie the score in the
ninth inning, but Wilson went to sleep on
third and was caught by quick throw of
thinner. The score:

WHATS IN THE wINDi
The National League Maguntes Are Moving
About Very Myseriousiy


There is. undoubtedly, a mysterious move
ment going on among the National League
magnates. They are quietly hieing themselves
away to New York if all reports are true. ]. P.
ONeil is there. and President Nihick either
left last night or will go to-day. A. q, spalding
OF Chicago, Is also on his way there or may be
there now. President Nimick remarked to
Constable HeAer, of Alderman McMaster's
office, yesterday, that he, Nimick, couldn't set
tie the rent difficulty until he saw Mr.. O'NeiI
in New York.
However, some people surmise that there
are Intentions of change OF policy among the
n. L. magnates and that secret meeting is
to be held in New York, probably to-day, to
change their schedule. The DISPATCH has
strongly advocated policy of this kind as
being the best one. However, 1t is invariably
dimc ult for the public to learn the intentions
or the National League magnates. particularly
that part of them residing in Pittsburg. As a
rule some of these gentlemen say some very
unreliable things, and although President
Nimick was questioned yesterday he declined
TO say anything except that the rent difficulty
regarding Recreation Park would be settled at
once,
