Then a run was made in the first by Abbey
foolishly throwing TO Larkin to catch Arson
between bases when q runner was on third.
Larkin couldn't throw a little bit, owing TO hi.
lame wrist, and il was about as wise to throw
to him as to drop the ball in a well. Instead Of
throwing home to catch the runner Larkin
jerked the ball to RICHARDSON at second. It was
now too late to catch the runner at home. An
sons trick had succeeded. He had caught
Abbey. Larkin played at a great disadvantage
and the visitors took every chance when he had
the ball. Abbey let in another run by hitting
Ryan. who was scored by Anson's triple. OF
the six runs SCORED Abbey was responsible for
Ave.
The home team, with eight exceptions, gave
excellent support. Duffee In center field caught
difficult fly over his right shoulder with his
face turned away from the ball. 1t was as
brilliant as any play ever seen here. Hoy made
brilliant catch in left after q hard run. taking
the ball on his left side on jump.
Radford in right secured sharp hit
after run, saving a double. In fact
the whole team was on the jump. The only
errors were Dowds tumble Of a slow grounder
and Richardson's tumble Of a hit which he ran
to get In Dowd's territory. Dan was charged
sharp hit In the first inning. The same persons
gave Parrott of Chicago no error for letting
Larkin's hit go through him and MCGUIRE 8
drive bound off from his shins.
The older pitchers are getting in form now.
1t takes time. Crane and Rusie of New York
are pitching better than any time this year.
This Is the time when the veterans come out
and the ''phenor1s' goin.
The local men made enough hits yesterday to
win and played well enough to win, but when
they see no effort on the part Of the manager
to support them they are not to be blamed for
getting discouraged. Even had Killen and
Dury ca gone in and been pounded it would
mis- for hovo
shown that the manager was "playing the
game"-what he SO often directs the men to do.
Score, 6 to L.
Manager Irwin used good judgment in chang
ing positions of Duffee and Hoy.
Charley snyder umpired and there was not a
protest. He did very well. His decisions are
quickly given and in loud tone. He has the
confidence Of the players and should be sue
cess.
Washington is after Berger, formerly with
Piftsburg, Minneapolis and indianapolis. He
has good record as an inhelder In the west
but what do we want Of him? Let our infield
alone, but get US pitcher or two. Our nine
will soon get batting streak. Meanwhile they
have done as well as Boston.
Cooney has been released. There was never
the slightest reason for engaging him, but after
he was engaged he ought to have been given a
fairer trial.
Other games yesterday: Philadelphia, 70;
Pittsburg, 5. st. Louis, q; Baltimore, 1. Gin
cinnati, 8; Boston, 2. Cleveland, 4; Brooklyn,

Today's games: Baltimore at Washington.
Philadelphia at Boston. Brooklyn at New York,

What has become Of our long-lost bows

The Chicago players all think II was q mis-
take to release Cooney.
Clausen, the new Louisville pitcher, has re-
