Providence Won Despite Umpire Con-
,ahan'S Poor Decision.
Jack Lory Took Albany Stake on Easy
Victory From ChySitiS.

Providence broke the hoodoo yesterday
chat had been following the team for
some time and even Umpire Conahan
could not lose for them the game. He
made a rafting good try for II. how
ever, and II was only the fghting spirit
Of the men. after waking from their
lethargy. that enabled them TO take the
game characterized by heavy hitting.
Both teams had a number of errors.
but the locals did the better work i'm
this line. offending in that manner eight
times TO five for the visitors. In the
pitching there seemed nothing that came
anywhere near the plate that either team
could not see. so that the hits were
rather more numerous than on the day
before.
DAILY still seems TO be afraid OF being
hurt at first and this was the cause OF
his errors and the one that seemed TO
be the fault with Aubrey. The error
charged TO Hickman might also go TO
DAILY for this same reason. Conahan was
determined TO lose for the locals the
game and did his best to carry out his
determination In the fourth. Toft threw
the ball TO Aubrey to catch the runner
at second and had the man by several
feet. II being the third out he started
from the field when the man was called
q
Conahan taking this act as a mum. called
the runner safe.
There was a general pow-w over the
question with the result that Toft began
picking stars from Conahans breast and
evinced desire 10 pick the buttons off
the umpire's shirt. This was taken 10
be undignified and the despot Of the
diamond sent the catcher 10 the dressing
room.
hfU al
fairs. for in their half of the inning they
swatted the hall all over the lot for
enough runs 10 win.
In the first inning a couple Of singles
Clancy's sacrifice and three successful
efforts at pilfering netted two runs for
the Royals.
Providence in it's half made three. Vim
son led of with a hit and Conn walked.
Days single scored Vinson and Conn
came through when Dyer fumbed Rocks
ny. Jack loft had meanwhile forced
DAILY. and on Rocks rap he ambled
around to third, from which he scored on
q wild pitch.
The visitors tied in the second on hits
by Barry and Pappalau and Days care
Nessness In heaving the ball about. In the
fourth the Royals made three more runs
on hits by Walters, Clancy and Papa
lau, with a base on balls TO Barry and
errors by Aubrey and DAILY Aubrey's err
ror was a nun, made when pappalau
lried to steal second. and the umpires
decision I'm calling Pap.
IN this inning Rock started off with
tmee-bagger. Aubrey hit safely, scoring
Rock. and advanced TO second on Hick-
mans sacrifice. Mlligan was safe on
Clancy's error. Aubrey moving TO third.
Wagner then drove past second and while
Montreal was throwing the ball about
both Aubrey and Milligan scoredy Vinson
was on hand with a single, but Conn was
found wanting and flied out. DAILY poked
one out I'm left field and Wagner scored.
Thomas found Pappaau for a pretty
single. and both Vinson and DAILY went
home. Rock made his second hit OF the
inning, this time single. but Aubrey
ended things.
In the eighth a three-bagger by Vim
son, which was accomplished by hard
sprinting, and Dyers error gave the
Grays another run in the final inning
after two were out. Clancy got base
on balls. Yeager hit to Milligan, which
the latter tipped. Aubrey tried to field
the ball to first. but threw IL into the
bleechers and before II could be recovered
both Clancy and Yeager scored. Hart
man ended the inning fly to Conn.
The Grays will meet the Royals in the
final game OF the present series at Mel
rose park this afternoon and hope to
make Il two out of three. Fairbanks will
probably be seen in the box for Provi-
dence. Attendance 500. The score:
