Various League Cities.
Boston, July 3O.-After having to-
days game well in hand, i'm the last
two innings, and by a streak of hard
batting the Baltimores won. Duffey
tried his hand at second. and was
responsible for two of the runs, while
Stivetts, after holding the Orioles we'll
in hand for seven innings, went to
pieces in the eighth and ninth. The
game itself was dull and uninteresting.

Boston ........1 002 0000- Ii 5
Batteries: Hemming and Clarke;
Stivetts and Cancel. Umpire, Lynch.
PITTSBURG, s; CINCINNATI, 4.
Cincinnati, Ohio, July 3O.-The Pitts
burgers, profiting by the absence Of
Smith. who was forced to quit the
game in the second inning after being

difficulty, batting Foreman hard in
two innings. Merritt's error and bases
on balls account for Cincinnati's runs.

ST. Louis, July 3O.-A long game
and close game by the Browns and
Spiders to-day, neither making run
until the seventh inning. The visitors
then piled up four runs. While the
Browns were unable to bunch their
hits and made only three to the end of

PHILADELPHIA, II; NEW YORK, 8.
Philadelphia, Pa, July 30.-The OPP
pressive heat to-day served to make
the game between the locals and New
York a listless one, though at times
both teams livened up somewhat and
played sharp game. The visitors
had slightly the better of the fielding,
but the Phillies won by opportune
stick work. dad" Clarke went into
the box for the visitors in the eighth
and Ulrich took Davis place in the
field, but it was too late for the change
to effect any marked results. Attend
ance, $500. Score;

BROOKLYN, A; WASHINGTON, 4.
Brooklyn, n. Y, July 30.-The game
between Washington and Brooklyn to-
day did not begin until long after the
schedule time, owing to a severe wind
and rain storm, which for a time
created quite panic. 1t was ladies'
day and many of the fair sex tainted
from fright. Everything, however,
passed off smoothly; no body was seri-
ous1y injured. It was McJames against
Abbey from a pitchers standpoint. So
cleverly did both men manipulate the
sphere that the game eventually re-
suited in a tie at the close of the
ninth inning, when it became too dark
to continue to play. 1t is possible that
the game will be played off in Wash
ington as it was the Senator's last
appearance in Brooklyn this season.
