THAT SUNDAY GAME.
Great Crowd Saw Birmingham Shut
 Out Montgomery.

&~S5 5SAJ
 In a magnificent game of baseball and before what was undoubtedly the largest crowd that ever attended a ball game here. Birmingham shut Montgomery out Sunday by a score of 1 to o.
 Before 1 o'clock Sunday afternoon the cars of the Traction Company loaded to their capacity, began running from Court Square to the ball park and back to the Square as fast as unloaded at the ball park and the trips could be made. This continued until after o'clock, the Trac- tion cars with the addition of several cars of the Montgomery Street Railway had all they could possibly do, people hanging on the running boards and even on top of the cars.
 At 3:30 o'clock train of nine coaches every coach loaded to the guards with people hanging on the steps. steamed out of the Union railway station running direct to the gates of the ball park
 When the Louisville and Nashville train arrived in Montgomery from Birmingham at Il o'clock Sunday morning there were six extra coaches loaded with nearly 600 enthusiastic Birmingham people and several loads of them went to the ball grounds in tallyhos and traps. the rest on street cars and the train.
 Every available seat in the pig grand stand and both bleachers was taken and rows of eager people lined the grounds just inside the fence in front of the bleachers on the right. The crowd vas variously estimated at between 5000 and 1000 people, the former figure being nearer correct.
 In the grandstand there were TOO or 800 ladies, and the most gratifying feature of the day to the management vas the fact that with this vast thong of people present there was not for a moment the slightest unpleasant incident.
 The game was a pitchers battle, both pitchers receiving great support from theor respective teams. Both Oscar Streit and Billy Campbell pitched possi- bly the best ball of their careers. The two southpaws worked with their hearts in the game and the teams backed them up with a glorious. snap that made the roars of the Birmingham contingent answered by thunders from the local fans. The score was and 0 until the sixth in- ming, both teams playing the ball that had the nerves of the tremendous crowd strained to the snapping point. In the sixth with two down Millar landed on a two-bagger. Jim oBrien smashed out one that spratt let get by him. and Miller and the only run of the game was pulled over the plate
 Nothing more was done on ether side after this and the game closed, Blrming- ham. l; Montgomery, o.

 The patrons of the game are kicking for the scores of the foreign games to be received by telegraph and put on the score board at the park. The race is warming up. and 1t will be interesting to see what the leaders are doing.
 The Childs matter was settled yester- day. Powers of the Eastern league writes that he admitted the justice Of Montgomery's claims and offered to buy Childs for Baltimore. The ouer was refused and Secretary Farrell or the National Association will trder Childs to report here at once.

Lem says town where he was married, and Hopkins swears that he will redeem that Atlanta record So there will be battle royal between the southpaws. After the fifth inning yesterday after noon an enthusiastic rooter on the bleachers was heard softly warbling the following:
 Little Fisher Maiden,
 The ball with deceit is laden.
 Tempt no more along the lea, The fierce Black Sox wait for thee. Little Fisher Maiden, Polchow with skill Is laden; Attempt no more a run to score, Defeats awaiting thee.

 It will be observed that Birmingham won Sunday. It may also be remarked that Birmingham won Friday.
 It was laughable to watch Newt Fischer get his Irish up yesterday when he would bite on Polchow's delivery.
 One of the prettiest things of the game Sunday was when Ike Durret returned a hit in time to cut down a runner at second base.
