Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Sept. 1.-The st. Paul
and Indianapolis teams broke even to-day,
each winning one game. Both games were
very poor exhibitions of baseball, the
morning game being about the worst ever
seen on the home ground. There were less
than hundred people present. and that
may have had something to do with the
very yellow ball which exhibited.
The afternoon game does not look so bad
on paper, but it was lifeless and uneXcit-
ing, the principal feature of the game be-
ing the loafing of every man in the two
teams In the morning game
seemed to care whether he played ball or
not, and the work of both teams was
roundly Kissed by the few spectators pres
ent. The locals have been putting up
a very bad game lately, but they never
played poorly as they did to-day The
visitors were just as bad. Umpire March
was as bad as the players, and the only
time any of the players put any life into
the game was when they were kicking on
his decisions.
Mullane and Damon were the opposing
pitchers in the first game and both of them
pitched fair ball. If the support in the
field had been good it would have been
pretty contest. The visitors secured their
first run in the first inning. Shannon sim
gled and scored on a double by Motz. In
the second two more runs were scored.
Hollingsworth .'mummified Stewards
grounder and Mullane threw Woods's wild
to first Both men scored on Hollngs-
worth's muff of McCarthy's pop-up. In the
fourth the visitors got four runs. George
and O'Rourke made errors and Krauss
gave bases to Stewart, Wood and Hogan.
Damon hit for three bases and forced Stew
art in. Mccarthy singled and Wood and
Hogan were in. Damon scored on a wild
pitch. Two more were scored in the sew
enth Shiebeck took first on fielders' choice
and Stewart scored him with a long home
run drive over the fence. The Saints scored
two in the fourth inning on a double, two
singles and steal three in the fifth on
two errors by Shiebeck, one by Damon,
one by Stewart and half dozen stolen
bases, and one base hit; two in the sixth on
error by Stewart and a home run by
Spies, and one in the seventh on errors by
Shiebeck and Shannon and a sacrifice hit.

ger did the twirling for the locals, and
kept the visitors hits we'll scattered. He
had good control of the ball. and his speed
was something terrific. Kellum opened the
game for the Hoosers, but he was touched
up for four hits and gave a base on balls
the first inning, and then retired in favor of
Wiley Davis. The latter did some good
work on the rubber. He was steady and
had speed. The game was absolutely fea-
tureless Shannon made the error charged
to the visitors, and it came late in the last
inning. The game was slow and lacked in
terest. The locals scored two in the first
inning on a base on balls two singles and
a double; two in the fifth, on two singles
and a triple and two in the ninth on a
three-bagger, double, Shannon's error and
a stolen base. The visitors got one in the
third home-run drive by Mccarthy.
The other was scored IN the sixth. on an
error by ORourlze, a stolen base and two
short singles. Two games VIII be played
