FIERCE OPPOSITION TO ORIOLES.
1t is Hinted That Gamblers Are De-
hind 1t.
From the Baltimore Sun, Tod

FROM the baltimore sun, Today.
Five hundred dollars if you win'-such
is the offer that has been made to every
Chicago pitcher in the present series with
Baltimore. according to the statements of
two newspaper men travelling with the Chi
cago team.
They state that the offer was privately
made to the Chicago pitchers by wealthy
western man who is anxious to see the
"gentlemanly" Bostons defeat the "ruf-
fianly' Baltimores for the good of the
game" The newspaper men would not dis
close the mans name, but seemed Of the
opinion that not Only the Chicago pitchers,
but every other pitcher who. faces the
Orioles, will be offered a like amount.
a circumstance which gees to corroborate
the story is the fact that Manager Hanlon
said last night that he had seen offer in
writing from a man in ST. Louis 10 the
Louisville pitchers OF $20o to any one of
them that would take d game from the
Orioles. These offers may grow the race
grows hotter, and if both men make like
offers ii will be worth 800 to any pitcher
who beats Baltimore. Perhaps other rich
gentlemen and honest sportsmen, who are
so intensely eager for 1.-The good of the
game. may add other hundreds. and it
may yet be worth years salary to a man
to beat these horrible Baltimores only one
game.
As has been said before, if the three-time
champions win again it will be against the
determined that any club ever encountered
in the history of the game. There have
been many thousands of dollars wagered
against Baltimore at odds, and the gam
hlers could well afford to spend few hun
cred to help themselves to win.
Perhaps these gentlemen who are offer
Ing pitchers $500 game have no money at
stake. and simply working for the
good of the game" But in any case, a
pitcher can do only so WELL even if offered
a million, and the champions expect to nave
every other club fight its hardest against
them. so that these offers to pitchers do
not disturb them. But they go to show
