POLO GROUNDS, NEW YORK, May
IA good many things were in favor
of another victory for the Giants this
afternoon. Herman Long, the Boston
shortstop, was unable to play, on ac-
count of an injury to one of his eyes, it
having been burned by a lighted cigar.
Duffy was slated to take his place and
because of that the rooters, who fancy
they are able to see through grind
stone already had it down as a sure win
for New York. Stinetts was scheduled
for centreield to take Duffy's place, and
the home talent declared that surely
"cinched" the game for New York.
Another encouraging thing for this
afternoon was the gorgeous victory of
Saturday.
The hurrah and eclat of Saturday
5000 spectators had the same intense
look of yearning for victory which all
the brass bands in the land would not
Danish from their afces.
President John 4. Brush, of the Gin
cinnatls, came all the way from over
lopcd the king pins from Boston SO han
dily. He wanted to see how stiff an
article of ball was necessary to trail the
Bostons banner in the dust, so that he
les and tip his lads off in good style for
their meeting with the Beaneaters.
1t was q lovely day. The grass was
beautifully green, the diamond was hard
and dry, and the air was filled with
weather and weather that ought to send
the Giants or any other team to victory.
The teams were thus assigned:

Inmates of a Cheap Lodging House
Hemmed in by Flames.

Buffalo, NY. January "A cheap
lodging house on Swan street, between
Main and Washington, kept by Lizzie
Packet, was destroyed by fire at O'Clock
this morning.
OF the scores of dodgers two persisted
and many others were more or less
seriously burned and injured. When the
flames were seen bursting from the win
dows the firemen were speedily on hand,
but the building was a rookery ant
burned like finder. Ladders were raised
to the windows and the firemen bent all
their efforts to saving the inmates. The
second floor of the building was par
titioned off into compartments, much in
the same manner as horse stalls, and
each stall held it's quota of dodgers
packed together like sardines. Straw,
bedding and this furnished the necessary
fuel with which the fire completed its
deadly work. A number rushed down
the stairway towards the rear when
warned by the smoke and heat and were
badly burned before being rescued by
the firemen. Others not as fortunate, OF
perhaps stupefed with drink, were
paralyzed with fear when confronted
with their sudden danger and had to be
carried out through the windows. The
fremen did heroic work, fearlessly en-
tering the blazing rooms and rescuine
those unable to move themselves. -Four
people were taken out in this condition,
one of whom died before he reached the
ground, and others were seriously
burned. The loss on the building Is
about $4,000.
