Announcement OF Boston's victory
Received with Cheers ut PimIfco.
Baltimore, Oct, 1.-The "ghost of a
chance" that Baltimore had to win the
pennant for next season vanished early
in yesterdays game, when the sena-
tors fell upon DIR. Ponds curves, batted
him out Of the box, and took a good
long lead in the fourth inning, after
which the orioles seemed to lose heart
and played listlessly and without am
bltion. In the meantime the score board
was showing how easily the Bostons
were taking their game away from
Brooklyn, and the last vestige OF hope
slowly died out In the breasts Of the
handful of faithful rooters who still
elung to the belief that Brooklyn might
take one from the leaders and give the
birds a chance to catch up by winning
all four from the senators.
1t is not saying too much to assert
that the result is not altogether unwel-
come in Baltimore, for the reason that
1t is generally admitted that Boston
was proved to have the better club in
the recent remarkable series played in
Baltimore, and all lovers of the game,
no matter what their prejudices, are
content to see the trophy Of the cham
pionship fall to the lot Of the best team.
The outcome of both games was watch
ed, however, with great interest, and
wherever crowds gathered bulletins
were read to them. In almost every
instance the news that Boston had
clinched 1t, and that the championship
was no longer in doubt, was received
with satisfaction, and in some cases
with cheers. This was notably the case
at Pimlico, where the result by innings
was read during the trottiag races in
progress there. On Sunday morning
the orioles will depart for Boston, with
the hope that they may at least save
the Temple cup, and gather in the lions
share of the gate receipts. Score by in
nings;
Washington .......2 0 / 2 4 0 0 o.
