Little Rock, June 11.-(Special. )-In the ern league, Little Rock defeated Bir- mingham today by the score of to o. It required but one hour and seven min utes to turn the truck. The game was not called until 4:15 and at 5:22 the crowd be- gan to file from West End park.
 It seemed the irony of fate that the fastest game of the season should be wit messed by the smallest crowd that had been at the park this year. Newlin did slab duty for the Travellers and allowed but four hits, two of which were made in the eighth. He was given gilt-edge support, however. and to that as much as his pitching was the victory for the locals due.
 A slight demonstration against Umpire Buckley after the game caused little excitement, but fortunately 1t did not get past the conversational stage. In the ninth, while Smith was at the bat Newlin sent one over that Buckley called a ball Anderson threw the ball down in disgust and was promptly plastered with nVe dollar fine. A few hot heads took excep- ton to the fine and they followed Buckley to the club house freely expressing their opinions as to the umpire. A deputy sheriff took Buckley in tow and the croWo dispersed.
 Both of Little Rocks runs were made in the sixth. DeArmond, the first up, sim eled and went to second on Meanys sac rifice and scored on a three bagger py Anderson, on which Gear could get but the tips of one of has hands Anderson going to third. safety by Johnson brought Anderson in. The Barons got only one man as far as second during the entire game.
