State League.
Meriden, June 9.-Meriden was beat
en- at home by New Haven this after
noon in one of the best attended and
finest played games witnessed here
this season. 1t was mainly pitchers
battle, in which vollendorf had the
better of the argument, though NOVEL;
pitched a fine game. Vollendorf's work
was superb and he held Meriden down
to three scattering hits and but for
Johnson letting ball get by him in
right field, which enabled Donovan to
score, the home team would have been
shut out. The game was replete with
brilliant plays on both sides. The
work of Parent, New Ravens Short
stop, was of the star order, and Court
ney and Cusick of Meriden did great
| work at short and first base. Duffy of
| New Haven made a sensational run
ming catch of a foul fly in left field,
and he put his team ahead in the
eighth inning by a clean home run
| drive. The score:
s.U " v " " " VI
| New Haven 20 0 0 0 1 1 1-3
-Meriden, 8; New Haven. s. Err
rors-Meriden, s.; New Haven, 8. Bat

and LucIia.
AT NEW BRITAIN.
| New Britain, June 9.-The yellow"
spots in the make up of New Britain's
team was very apparent in the game
with the Danbury aggregation, which
resulted in favor Of the batters, 10 to
4. A wild throw by Sullivan in the
second inning, which let in two runs,
seemed to take all the ginger out of
the home team. The jumping of his
| contract by Campbell has left big
hole in New Britain's outfield, and
Lawson, a local player, who was put
in to fill the position, failed utterly.
Morris, the visitors twirIer, kept the
Rangers" down to seven hits, and he
was well backed UP throughout the
game Thes core:
New Britain.0 3 0 0 l 0 o. 4
Danbury 80 2 1 0 / 2 2 0-1o
Hits-New Britain, Z; Danbury, H.
| Errors-New Britain, 6: Danbury, g.
Batteries-Lynch and Somers; Morris
and Phelps.
AT NEW LONDON.
New London, June But a very
small attendance gathered to see the
| New London Bridgeport game and
though the Colts won out the game was
very disappointing. Reilly, the Bridge
port twirler, was hit all over the field,
and New London made ten runs in five
innings. The quality Of ball put up by
the visitors was apparent from the
| fact that New London had fourteen
hits and seventeen stolen bases. New
London played careless after the fifth
inning and allowed seven runs to be
made but at no time was there any
doubt as to the final outcome. The
score:
New London 8 2 1 1 0 Q *-12
Bridgeport 20 0 0 0 4 2 0 o.
Hits-New London, IA; Bridgeport, Z.
Errors-New London, S; Bridgeport 5.
Batteries-van Zandt and Lamar;
Reilly and Ivers
AT DERBY.
Derby, June 9.--Three hundred peo-
pie saw Derby add one more defeat to
the already large list this afternoon,
Waterbury being the victors by the
score of to 4. On account of Housa-
tonic park being occupied by the c. t,
A. field day the game was played in
Ansonia, and the ground was far from
being satisfactory. Mansfield, Water
bury's star twirler. was found for
twelve hits with total Of seventeen
while the twelve hits made off OF Crate
made only a. total of IA. Derby was
fortunate in punching their hits on
Mansfield, but his support was oppor-
tune Cone, who was assigned to UNI
pire the game, failed to put in an APP
pearance, and the local man, who went
in at the last moment, proved unsatis-
factory, both to the players and the
spectators, the latter showing their dis
pleasure most markedly. The features
of the game were a one handed STOP
and throw by Denny, and a running
catch by Culver. Houle batted and rar
bases well and Crate and Clabby each
made three Dagger. Derby's one err
ror was responsible for three runs
while waterbury's error had no direct
bearing on the result. The score:
Derby 49,. 10 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 q
Waterbury % 0 0 0 l.
Hits-Derby II; Waterbury, Err.
rors-Derby, 1; Waterbury, l. Batter
ies-Crate and Manning; Mansfield anG
Conner.
