New Orleans, May S.-The second game
of the series was one to warn the cookies
of the heart of a baseball enthusiast, and
the battle royal was between the pitch
ers, with the honors in favor of McGin-
his. The batting of both teams was
weak, and though the visitors got the
most hits, the home team secured the
victory. Powell and Knox each hit for
two bases in the first, an earned run by
Powell being the result. The second run
was the result of Peoples tumble of
Houseman's grounder, a stolen base by
the same player and Bowman's single.
The run made by Montgomery was due
to base on balls to billiard and singles
by German and Mangam. Score:
