(Special to The Times.)

Chicago, July I5.-Tne Washington ball
team reached Chicago today, and tonight
every mothers son was cozily tucked away
by o O'Clock in their Rooms at the fremont
House.
Capt. Joyce alone was awake when The
Times representative called at the hotel.
In reply TO the query why the Senators
ha d been losing SO steadily Of late, "Sorappy"
said:
The team is all right, but has been
playing i'll very poor luck. We have been
playing gingery and live baseball, but at
crIucai staSeS when d hit mean. d game,
we have been popping up flies TO the
infield and fouling out to -catchers.
II will putin King and McGuirst omorrow
and with any kind or luck we ought to take
the series from Anson. We are pla ying
better ball, and IL this counts for augnt,
we should take the three straight.

cut off his throwing hand at st. Louis last
Saturday, is mendinG fast, and may come

DISTRICT WON THE RUBBER.
Took "A welI-Played Game From the
Infantry Men

y
The District Commissioners after a hard
Infantry ball team by score OF 8 to Z
yesterday afternoon.
The game opened up beautifully, both
sides going cut in one, Two, three order,
ana the crowd settled down to witness
what was expected would be one OF the
most snapply played amateur games of the
season. In this, however, they were dis
appointed; the pace was too rapid for the
boys who in the next inning showed their
rating. Nicholson was in the box for the
Infantry, but his arm, which is In bad
fix, failed him, and in the ninth inning
the Commissioners sent eight men TO bat
four OF whom scored, three or the runs
being earned. In the fourth again the
District boys jumped on him and pounded
out four more runs.
In the fifth inning Nugent was sent to
the bench, Nicholson into center-field and
Burns put in the box. Burns was very
effective. In the fifth three hits were
made off him which netted one run but
after that to the end OF the game only
one safe hit was made by the Commits
sioners.
.'Cy" Young, who pitched for the Dis
trcts, was in great form and ut critical
times was very effective, striking out
nine of the Infantry batSmen. 1n the
first inning he caught two and in the
next three Of the strongest batters on the
team.
While the game was well played all
around the fielding honors belong to Jones
and Kleinschmidt, the former taking in three
and the latter two long flies after hard

Guy Hecker did the same thing while on
the Louisville club in LCuisviIe- 1t was
the Kentucky club which was playing IN
ST. Louis ut the time Carruthers batted SO
hard, and Hecker himself was doing the
pitching. During the season of 1884 The
Boston grand stands burned down, and
the Bean Eaters moved for a season to
the brotherhood grounds. Out there Lowe,
in one game, Grove four balls over the
short Ieft field fence.

lSnecial to The Times

Chicago, July 15.-The players, except
ing Brown, are in good shape physically,
but have been unable OF late TO Int tie
bail when hits were needed TO bring IN
runs, a fault that is liable to handicap any
club. b.
browns absence from the game is due
to u sore finger and lie has been missed IN
the field, on the bases, and at the bat.
l believe that MeTcers lDeflec1veness
can be attributed to the fact that lie has
worked harder than any pitcher IN the
League during the past three weeks We
Were unfortunate IN losing MAUI, Dut was
compelled to work Mercer as often as
possible, and lie willing responded.
When we have regained our batting
streak, we will be in the game. KING Will
pitch tomorrow. JO1CE.

Tebeau's Men Couldn't Hit Meekin and
1t Was a Slow Game.

Cleveland, July 15.-Cleveland failed to

visitors took the lead in the first, making
bitsby Davis and Gleason. One was earned
in the third on singles by Gleason and
Stafford. Hits by Meekin and Van Haltren,
more for the visitors in the fourth. In
the next five innings but five hits were made
OFT Wilson's delivery. In the third inning
O'Connor's hand was cut open by hot
foul tip from Farrel's bat and he retired
from the game. Brilliant catches by Nc
AIeer and Blake were features OF an other
wise rather slow game. Irwin protested
