THE DIAMOND.

Chicago, June 6.-The Kangaroo ball
players from Australia, gave the Hi
nois cycling club baseball team the
scare of its life in the game this after
noon. The wheelnlen won out by a
score of Is 10 3, only after the hardest
kind of ball playing, and with the
assistance of a couple of bad throws
on the part of the visitors.
The Australians astonished the ma
tives with their batting. and in spots
their fielding was equal to anything
seen on an amateur field. They played
in a manner that showed that the
ludiments OF the game were well
grounded and that they were reaching
out for the fine points.
Second Baseman Ingieton, of the Aus
tralian nine. carried off the honors, ac-
cepting nine hard chances without an
error.
