team 6 to at the Polo Grounds. The, New YOrks won without half trying in fact they lapsed into carelessness on several occasions. They acquired a safe lead early in the game, Manhat- tan playing poorly in the early innings, but much better later on.
 Amos did some remarkable pitching in the first three innings. The first three men up made hits off him, but q double play, with the plate as pivot, and strike out prevented scoring. In the next two innings Ames struck out six men, making seven in succession in the three innings, with one base on balls between the sixth and seventh strike out.
 The New Yorks scored five of their six runs in the first two innings on combination of Strang, Mertes and Gil bert and numerous battery and fielding errors. Dolan, the Manhattan pitcher, did about hundred per cent better work in the last four innings than in the first four. The score:

THE SPORTING NEWS.
, THE 'PUCILISTS. 1 ,.
OWEN MORAN HAS.
 ARRIVED AT LAST

The fighting colony here has been augmented by another foreign pugilist in the person of Owen Moran of Rir- mingham, England. Moran is not q representative English champion, but has q brilliant record of achievements in the ring. Moran arrived here from England yesterday on the Majestic and, was immediately taken in tow by Ben Benton of Boston and Tom O'Rourke. who will act as Moran's manager while here.
 The Briton is the most interesting little fighter who has come to the United States from England in many n day. He weighs in condition ll4 pounds, can fight at 112 pounds If necessary and is ready to go to 1l6 pounds if called upon. But 1t was Moran's remarkable muscular develop ment that attracted the eyes of the critics. He has pair of shoulders that physical culture artist would be proud of, his legs are finely propor- tioned and the muscles of his back, de noting excellent hitting powers. bulge out conspicuously. And Moran looks the natural born miller. He has light hair, blond complexion and resem- bles Jimmy Barry, the former bantam champion, enough to be his twin brother. He poses like Terry McGov- ern, and 1t is said that his style is an exact counterpart of the snoted' @ex- featherweight champion. k, Moran has a chest measurement of thirty y-seven inches and a waist circumference of thirty inches. Moran has youth in his flavor. He was born at Birmingham, England, on October f.. 1884, and is five feet four inches in height.

THE SPIT BALL A BALK.

Under certain conditions the spit ball will be balk in the National league this year. President Pulliam has no ob- Mctions to the spit ball in itself though he does not fancy the name but he thinks there is such a thing as using it ill manner not entirely consistent with the requirements of good taste. He has instructed his um- pires to see to it that pitchers do not moisten the ball in an OstentatiOus, ob- jectionable manner, for instance with the ball foot or so away from the mouth in one hand and deliberately wetting the fingers of the other hand after the manner of man licking postage stamp. A balk will be called on every pitcher so doing- provided, of course. there is somebody on base.
 There is no objection to pitcher applying saliva to the ball if he does it in an inconspicuous manner. Ches- bro, the best of all spit ball pitchers, Vets the ball in such a way as not to attract any attention and in a way en- tirely free from cOarseness.
