Especial to The Washington Timcs.)

ST. LOUIS. Sept. 3.-Washington 3. and
st. Louis split "double-header" here
this. afternoon, the Browns winning the
first game with ease. but losing the sec
ond. Or,h was batted hard in the first
and the fielding behind him was poor.
II the second Washington found Sud-
hoff hard in the sixth inr.ng. and a
hone-run drive by Deiehanty scored
three runs, one having come in pre-
v.ousiy. The four runs scored then
were enough to win for the Senators.
The first game was one of the most
listless exhibitions seen here this sea-
son, and in striking contrast to the ones
between the Browns and Athletics.
Made Little Defense.
Orth did the twirling for the Senator's,
and he showed nothing which would
hinder the St. Louis batters from maxi
ing connection with his delivery. He
lobbed the ball over the plate and let
the fielders take their chances with hits.
The latter put up an exhibition on par
with that of Orth, and it would be hard
to imagine a worse piece of work on the
defensive.
St. Louis. on the other hand, put up
a fair article of ball, but il. was evil
dent that the loose play of the Sen
ators and the easy way they were win
ming caused them to let down. The
Washingtons n .ver cut much of a figure
in the game, despite the fact that they
were in the lead for an inning. Dona-
hue held them well in hand throughout,
was 8 to 2.
