It is said Nicholl is fielding better than
when the team left home. He is one of
the best fielders in the league.
The States, speaking of Quarles, SAYS
he is a tall, graceful pitcher, and one of
the best seen in New Orleans this season.
The pitchers will have to alternate
in right field till COnnaughton gets in con
dition unless Manning gets another out
fielder.

unable to play for at least ten days.

worst of the decisions on balls and strikes,
and declaring Campau safe al first on a
short hit along the base line in the
seventh or eighth inning, when the count
was clearly out. When Meakim remon-
strated he was fined. Later on, when he
cut the plate with a ball. Hill called it a
strike, and when Meakim protested he
was put out of the game, and Savannah
had to finish the game with eight men,
which was outrageous. The public does
not so to the, ball park to see fractional
mines, and it is to be hoped that umpires
in the future will be made to understand
