sixth inning by two overtHroWS TO Larkln,
giving the Pittsburgs one run in the fourth,
and helping them again in the succeeding
inning to tally three more scores. Two
games had been advertised for this after
noon, but a heavy downpour of rain shortly
after l o'clock rendered playing impossible
and the grounds were in such bad condition
that II was feared both games would have
10 be postponed.
And the sun Came Out Again.
However, the sun came out little after
= o'clock and the teams took good practice
10 familIarize themselves with the muddy
park. Despite this condition errors were
few, and in the case of the Pittsburgs
Pitcher Calvin sDoiled an otherwise clean
score for his side BY tumble of Donovan's
Erounder in the opening inning. Five hits
were made of Calvin in as many innings,
but he kept them scattered, and on two oc
Casions the Senators were retired with men
on second and third bases. Meanwhile
Pittsburg had failed to gauge Knell with
the exception of Bierbauer until the fourth
inning, when Shugart opened up for his
side with a clean single to right field. Beck
ley bunted successfully, but was declared
out for running out of line. and then Ray
m0nd came to his companions rescue with
9 liner over Radford's head.
Farrell Kept Tn the Fun.
Farrell kept UP the stick work, but Rav-
mond and Mack were thrown out at second
10y Milligan in attempting to steal and by
Danny Richardson's quick handling of
Corkhilps grouuder 10 short.
There comes old IL sang out Fochorn
Miller as Calvin ambled up to the plate in
the fifth inning. There was a smash and a
crack in the sky, the result being "Pap's"
safe arrival at second. Larkin fumbled
Niller's hit along the first base line, and
Bierbauer and Shugart, after giving chances
10 retire the side, were enabled to score
through knelps second wild throw over
she first baseman's head. Four to nothing
made the bleachers groan, but in the sixth
inning big filligan revived their hopes by
2 triple TO center, and on Richardson's sac
TItlce WashingtOn's first tally was scored.
Ciphers were in order for the Pittsburgs in
the succeeding innings, it being case of
one, two, three, relieved only BY couple
OF bases on balls and Farrelrs second base
bit.
Where Matters Looked Very Bad.
When the seventh inning closed, how
ever, the Senators had tied the score ard all
through big Milligan again. Radford flew
out and Hoy went to first on clean drive
10 right, then Donovan gave Miller fly
and Larkin went to first on balls. Duffee
filled the bases with single over third base
and Milligan cleared them with double
bagger. Richardson ended the run getting
by going out at first Doubles bv Radford
and Hoy in the eighth led to another earned
run being scored and clincher was put on
the game in the last inning, when Donovan
was presented with base on balls and after
Z daring steal was sent home on singles bv
Richardson and Milligan. Knell was the
only one of the local team to strike out. but
he had previously sized up his opponent for
two clean hits. 1t was a slugging game in
which the Senators were on top. The score:

CHICAGO SWITCHAiEN WAITING.
THEY WILL NOT STRIKE AT PREsENT-A COM
PARISON OF WAGES.

PAREON OF WAGES.
Chicago Aug 19-Grand Secretary simsrot, OF the
switchmen's Union last night received the following
telegram from Grand Master Sweeney
Men to nh strikers places arc scarce The ue-up
Is solid"
"As long the situation in Buffalo remains in Its
present shape" said Mr.. slmcrot, "thore will be no
general strike ordered along the entire lines Of the
affected roads. Even In case the companies should
succeed in raising the blockade at Burnlo with nom
union men, strike will be ordered in Chicago until
II is decided upon In ssmectlDg Of all the local
unions. From present indications / an inclined to
think there will be no necessity for such a move, az
think the railroad companies that the spirit
manifested by other organizations OF railroad employees
Is In favor OF the strikers, and that the companies
will make the concessions asked for before they Will
preclpate general strike VI oil the organizations"
Referring in this connection, TO the concessions
asked OF the railroad companies Mr.. 6imsr0t said
Any would naturally think. to read the inter
views with the officials Of the railroads. that the
switchmen asking demands which, II conceded
would wreck the companies. Nothing, however. Is
further from the truth. The switchmen are only ask
Ing % cents per hour as maximum rnte Of wages and
that for men who work at night. The day men are
only asking 26 cents per hour. Now a comparison
of these wages with those received BY almost any
class OF skilled mechanics will, think demonstrate
the justice In such demands. In the building trades
there Is not single craft IN which the men engaged
do not receive from TO % cents more per hour than
Is received by the swtchmen. Every bodcarricr re
cives 81 cents per hour, while the bricklayers get
20 cents. without considering the element OF dan
to which the switclman Is constantly exposed he
must be man Of skill and experience which can
only be acquired by long service Then why snch
man should be expected constantly TO jeopardlze his
life and yet receive less money for his services than
almost any Craftsman Is one OF the things cannot
understand"
