 New Orleans, July Especial )-Keefe handed the Coal Barons all the worst of 1t this afternoon and as a result the Pelicans won the fourth game by score of to 5. In the second inning. with two men on bases and one out, Mcguire drove a hard one by third that struck the foul line Lime was knocked in the air like a cloud from the marked boundary, but Keefe called the two-base hit foul and the two runs scored were not allowed Vaughan put up terrific kick, but 1t did not go.
 Even the crowd in the stand admitted that the play was a clean-cut steal and they handed out some hot ones to this remarkably strong home umpire It was a duplicate of the dose handed the Peli- cans by Keefe in Atlanta. There Is no umpire on the staff whom teams hate more to meet than Keefe when on the road.
 Knocked c. Smith Out.
 Cy Bowen, the ex-Pelican signed by the Barons yesterday, pitched a good game. He gave nine hits but they were all scattered. c. Smith, the giant Pelican, was hammered for thirteen hits in five innings, and Dannehower. who followed him, was touched up for few more. Even with this terrific bombarding the Coal Barons could not win.
 Daring base running by Rickert, the Pelican star, coupled with a great deal of luck and kindness from Keefe won the game.
 In the fourth, after the two runs made In the second were not allowed, Mllar singled, advanced on Maguires sacrifice and scored on Bowen's single. In the fifth Millerlck hit for two bags and scored on Lawlers single, and Lawler came In on Kanzler's hit.

  seventh Corners walked and Brouthers landed one down by Smith on third for hit and Corners walked in on Rickert's single over second. With Brouthers on third Rickert tried to work a double steal and the ISly took. Brothers scored while Rickert was chasing up and down between second and first, and a little later, when playing off the second bag Bowen made a bad throw to catch him. the ball went wild and Rickert scored It was a daring piece of base running and took speed to accomplish it.
 New Men Secured.
 Coffee Jackson stated this afternoon that he had purchased Hugh IIin and kept the matter quiet because President Kavanaugh wrote that Fisher was still trying to get hold of him. IIill has agreed to join the team, and while there may be little delay, Birmingham will get him. Jackson has also purchased Frank from Little Rock. but Finn could not get the man he wanted. and it may be that Frank will also be held up for a while. He expected to have Frank join him here in New Orleans, and 1t Is possi- ble that he may reach the club in Shreve- port.
 The Barons left this afternoon feeling very sore over Keefes treatment. It will not take long before Keefe becomes 8 known as the home umpire of the league. The score Is as follows:
