Cooper came in first In one race and second

BALTIMORE, Nd, Oct. 5.-The chances
for the Temple cup resting in Baltimore
this winter are very bright. To-day the
third game of the series with the Cleve-
land team, the last one to be played in
Baltimore, went to the home team by the
score OF to-. The champions need but
one more game to capture the hagon.
Unless Clevelands put up better ball on
their home grounds than they have played
here the. Baltimores are likely to make it
four straight. The Eastern boys are at
their best and the series has been ably
played.
Young and Cuppy have both been out
of condition. The teams will continue the
series in Cleveland on Wednesday, Friday
and Saturday. provided the Baltimores do
not WIN and thus end the contest. Should
a seventh game be necessary, it will most
likely be played in Pittsburg. Captain
Tebeau has not recovered from the wrench
he gave his back during Fridays game,
but he is improving and was on the bench
to-day. The prices of admission to-day
were reduced TO the figures obtained dur
ing the championship season, and 4134
persons paid entrance fees.
This afternoons contest was remarkable
for the number OF brilliant catches in the
outfeld and the small number of errors.
There were but two Baltimore men left on
bases. Score: Baltimores, 8, 8, o; Cleve-

NEW YORK, N. Y. Oct. 5.--The meet

o'clock this evening until noon to-mor-

Byrne of Brooklyn, spent almost the
whole day considering grievances of the
Western League.
President Young said that no decision
had been arrived at, as the time of the
board had been taken up with the hearing
of evidence and discussions. President
"Ban" Johnson of the Western League
and J. T. Killilea, owner of the Milwaukee
Club, were before the board. Colonel
Rogers of Philadelphia was also witness.

the matter is one which required consid
Grafton as to how far the power of the
National board extended, and what were
its rights in the matter. A decision will
probably be arrived at tomorrow and
other minor league matters will be
taken up.
