ST. STEPHENS BEATEN
BALL GAME WON BY COMMISSION.
Frs YESTERDAY.

The st. Stephens Institute base ball team
met defeat at the hands Of the Commits
sioners yesterday afternoon at American
League Park by score of u to 8. AL
though the crowd of rooters for the teams
was small it enthusiastic and every
good play on the part of a member of
either team was loudly applauded. The
game not started until after o'clock,
and it was practically o'clock when the
last man was put out in the last half of
the last inning. While it was not Ameri-
can League ball playing. the two amateur
teams by no means disgraced the diamond
of the professionals, playing a creditable
exhibition.
The boys of st. Stephens started out well,
taking a good lead in the first half of the
first inning. They set a good pace for the
first half of the race, keeping their COM
petitors on their toes all the time. In the
fifth, however, the boys in gray, with two
out, started with a sprint to take the pace
from their opponents, and before they
could be pocketed they had assumed the
leadership which they maintained to the
end Of the game. In all the innings after
this one, except the fifth, the Commission
ers increased their lead, until at the end
they had almost distanced their opponents.
st. Stephens was the first at bat After
Warden had been put out on a little ground
u,
Handiboe, which was muffed. Hughes ad-
vanced Carr with a good two-bagger and
Carroll brought in both of these men with
hit to left field on which he made three
bases. Dunn then struck out and 1t was
then up to Moriarty to bring in the man
on third. Handboe was guilty of another
error, which allowed Carroll to tally the
third run for st. Stephens Buscher was
struck out, ending the inning.
Although the Commissioners could hit the
ball, as delivered by Ogle, they could not
out two men, while the third was caught
between third base and home plate. The
second and third innings passed without
any score. st Stephens added fourth run
to her string in the fourth when Croft,
knocking a ball under the bleachers near
first base, did 10O-yard dash around the
bags for a run.
The fifth inning proved to be the Wa
terloo for the hitherto Napoleonic boys of
ST Stephens. Gates was the first man up
and he got his base on an error of Dunn
and his successor at the bat got his base
on an error of Warden, in left field. Hoff-
man. the next man to bat, tried a sacri-
flee but Gates was caught at home, while
he was safe at first. A similar play re-
suited in the catching of Cantwen at
home plate, while Fitzpatrick got to first
A similar play, when Beall knocked a
liner across the diamond, failed to catch
Hoffman. and the Commissioners made
their first run. Venable knocked a hit
to right field and Hooks followed this up
with a two-bagger over the third base
mans head, the two hits bringing in
three runs. Handiboe continued the bat
ting streak, with clean hit bringing In
Hooks. The side was retired when Dow
ling knocked a slow grounder to Ogle.

WON BY GALLAUDET
LOCALS TAKE A FALL OUT OF
JOHNS HOPKINS.

The Gallaudet team surprised even the
most optimistic of Kendall Green rooters
yesterday afternoon by defeating the strong
Johns Hopkins nine by score of to 4.
Dillon, who pitched for the locals. showed
h:gh-class form for the first time this sea-
son, striking out nine men and allowing
the Baltmoreans only three hits. He gave,
however, four passes. to first. Waring, who
pitched for the visitors, struck out four men
and was touched up for eleven hits.
The visitors were charged with five errors,
Mcdonnell, at short, being responsible for
two of them. and Brown. Inglehart and
Bowie for one each. while the Mutes We're
charged with 4, Lutch, at first, gathering
two Hunter and Huinch one each.
The score was tied twice and the Buff
and Blue won out by their ability to hit
the ball at the right moment. Both teams
put up a snappy game. Mcdonnell, at
short, was the bright particular star of
Johns Hopkins. The score follows:

LOST TO NEW YORK
Good Work by the Nationals

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK. April 22.-Not since the
history of major league base ball has there
been a game under conditions quite like
those of this afternoon. Hence it is con-
test which stands out of the ordinary and
must go on the records as a breaker of all
base ball lore. The New York and Wash
ington teams played for nothing to about
10000 spectators. Not a cent was charged
al the gate. and all that the New York
management got out of the affair were the
quarters which were paid for grand stand
seats. In some instances they did not even
get those, for the spectators came in on
rain checks. What the Washington club
received is a question. 1t is presumed that
Frank Farrell made an arrangement of
some kind with the Washington owners for
Ii was through the negligence of the local
management that base ball was so pecu-
narly situated as to call for a free game
The trouble was all due TO the storm of
yesterday and the fact that the club did
not give out rain checks to the u 900 spec
tators who entered to see the opening CON
test. The game was not half finished YES
terday when the rain began 20 fall In tor
rents and although Connolly did everything
In his power to get five innings completed
he had to give il up as a bad lob and call
the contest off. Then the New York man
agement dismissed the spectators without
either rain checks or q return of their
money. So to square matters they PLAYED
for nothing this afternoon, and the funny
part of II all is that todays crowd was
mostly made up of people who did not see
the opening game, but came today because
81 didn't cost anything. However, that had
little 20 do with the enthusiasm manifested
for the Washington club. II was cheered
with as much favor as the Hghlanders,
and the general opinion after the game was
finished was that the incidents of the OPEN
ing day had gone a long way toward max
ing the Nationals popular in New York.
