Fisher and Miller first base, Lachancc !;
second base, IIallman third base, Shin.
die short stop, George Smith, Sheckard
or Beam outicld, Jones, Griffin and
Anderson. Much is expected OF some of
the new pitchers.
Manager lIanlon, of Baltimore, expects
great things of his galaxy Of twirlcrs,
consisting Of Corbett, lIoffcr, Nops, Nc.
james, Pond, Hughes and Ktson.
Hughes may prove valuable man, as
he is not only good pitcher, but also a
good third baselman and good bats
man. Demontrevillc, who displaced
Reitz, at second, it is admitted, may roll
up u few more errors than would his
predecessor, but is superior batsman
