NEW YORK, 9; baltimore, 2-FIRsr GAME.
BALTIMORE, juno 21.-Capt. Bill Joyce and
his band from Now York clipped q large slice Off
of tho champions percentage to-day by neatly
capturing two games. The visitors played IN
their old "a form, and the games were mover in
grave doubt, although tho Orioles threatened to
make Garrison finishes. The New Yorks played
all around Hanlon's men. and at times made
them look like pigmies. Big Amos Itusie was at
Ills best. For eight innings the local batsmen
walked to the plato and went down like grass in
n windstorm. Three scattered hits, one of
them q hunt. and one run were all they could
find. In the last inning they managed to
gather in a single and a double. which let them
score another run. In the mean time the visit
ors were plugging away at Nops, who was also
doing excellent work. but the pace set by his
opponent was too much for the you ngster, and
this. together with the poor work Of the men be

inning he went up in tho air and proved
peaches and cream for the New Workers. Davis
put up a great game at short field and killed
base hits until 1t became monotonous to the
local Iooters; The champions played at times as
in the fourth inning. Davis hit a low fly to left
field. which Kelley mptfed after a long, run.
