BASEBALL YESTERDAY.
Forfeited to BrookIyn.

New York. June 16-The New Yorks
forfeited a game to the Brookyns this
afternoon lin the second inning, when the
Brooklyns Were at the bat, the score at
that time being to / in favor of the
Brooklyns. Seymour, in the second in
ming, sent a straight one over the plate
that Umpire Burns called a "ball." Sey-
mour and Warner threw up their hands
Warner was Immediately removed. Then
came Gleason and this left the home team
in a hopeless condition. Wilson went in
to catch. Coakley, a pitcher, replaced
Gleason and Foster went to short. The
first ball pitched was a strike, but Will
son stepped to one side and the ball came
close to Umpire Burns. He promptly re-
moved Wilson from the game for what he
claimed was a deliberate move to allow
the ball to hit him. This caused another
row and Gleason and Warner were or
dered off the grounds. They did not go
promptly enough to suit Burns and he de-
clared the game forfeited. The forfeiture
places the New York club liable to $1,000
fine, which must be paid to the Brook
lyn club
