CLANS WON IN NINTH INNINe
Amid a TumuIt of Excitement, Local
Team Got Away.

Nashville, Tenn, June 25.-Without
a single score credited to either side
and which seemed to have been a ten
innings game, was the condition of
things Tuesday at Athletic Park until
Johnson came to the bat in the ninth.
Two men being out with Holden on
second Johnson swatted a drive over
short which enabled Holden to score
for the locals.
Hamilton was invincible on the slab,
allowing only few hits and handing
out just one free pass. The game was
snappy and full of excitement, being
the best played thus far in Athletic
Park Both pitchers did well. Fuller
